As to tnu mode usually pursued in answering such mat tors us ti woman I claim Ignorance, and , if this is not in tho usually prescribed way I bono vott will pat don 1110. It mav lie that tho article needs no answer, vet. in my way. I feel it a duty to answer it, Thu writer of the article proves to mo thu fact casually referred to in tlie sen timents quoted as being mine, (hat thu republicans aro very much more ready to protect their friends than are democrats. The manner in which this writer springs with Hticii alacrity to tieiemi iiistiany ami party friends bears out the truth of what was said, Hut I wish here to say that I never at any time felt or expressed my self as complaining that tho widows of (Jen. IjQgun and (Jen. lllalr should receive ienstons, io sucii sentiment was ever expressed by me. Indeed I am rejoiced to know that those ladles are likely to re ceive pensions. It is 11 great mistake that I ever alluded to 11 (tension for my self. I liavo thought ami so expressed myself, that the government should give 1110 tlie salary that would have been due mine, it is in tlio abundant I'nlted States treasury and, as I am told is drawn by no one. Tlio active vice-president gets his own pay as senator. Tho reasons given by my discreet (tarty friends for not granting 1110 this pay is that it would set a precedent. lint I suppose that tho sumo would apply to thu itenslons, only that Unit there aro a very low vico-preef-dents to como in and very many generals. Although wollvo in an ago when women are much honored, tho wiiter seems to mo to le very pronounced, and almost unjust to mo; ho seems to forget Ihut I may have my views, as many others have, of tho fact that there aro during seasons of war, battles to light at homo that need eistl heads to command thu forces of a well-managed government to furnish supplies and Income to keep tho necessary army paid, fed and clothed. I consider in this tho one that tho writer in that article so roughly tries to dispurugo Is on record as having voted for all war supplies during tho time that he was in the Semite. And all that lie (this writer) needs to do is to look at the government records and know that his assertions made cannot lw verlllcd by icconls and dates that do not err. vl concerning this, list imiuv in this land have homo testimony to the truth of his loyalty to render it necessary for mo to contradict tho assertions of vour wr ier inado ovi ileutly without knowledge of facts, In the heat of passion rattier than fiom 11 deshe to be unjust to ono who wassolteautifully kind uud considerate of all those who in any way dlllered with him. Please paidou tlio length of this letter and kindly give it publication.
