The Messenger is no personal enemy of Governor i Russell " but deplores) hi9 'politics and despises his iiays,- and is . therefore 'not'h to believe such a! ter rible accusation. It j would prefer to ih&ve .Russell's words for the Bahje of i pulblio ' decency made true "Hancock 13 a, liar." All who know the governor Tcnow that he is a. , man of high ;pas - slon and i revengeful df eelinjg, but jjthey i ae hardly willing to belli eve Hancock's j statements. It is-true that Jn the'j war Rmssell made an attack oipon his'l col onel with a weapon, deadly or oher wise, Wid as we have heard, front the fear. But he was young.jtJhen arid it igave hini great trouble. , But toff is -more than fifty now, has toeen a. ipdge on. the bench, (where 1. he galinejl no (plaudits and wore no laurels) and -has 4iad no little experience, and is jjnow tthrighteousily governor of iNortlh Caro lina, and is it to be believed thatj the would instigate a brutal assault upon pne"who toad offended him Iby offering ; a. rich reward is indeed: almost beyond , belief.

Very few. people have any idea that it was an accident. Even if it were, convincing proof of it would not remove'thej strain.-The people would still say: But (why allow, a con dition of affairs such as is known to exist in; Cuba to go on?. That was not the way the United States did! when Mexico and Spanish South America took up arms against foreign oppression. : Even if the Maine was the victim of accident why run the risk of suoh accidents?
