In your reply to me, you say: First. Mr Menn did not re to the convention any | resolution which be had proviously submitted to me; Secondly. The resolution which he did report was drawn by otber gevtleman, and was no! submitted to me by Mr Ma! Thirdly. The resolutions which Mr. Mann did submit tome 1 void not vote sgainst; but when, subsequently to the sdoption of the mejority report, they were offered laying them on the In examining these allegations am willing to abide by the ru'e f«miliar in maxims, that if [om false in one thing I am willing to be deemed false in all, You will be also subject to this rule. In view of such a rule and jucgment, let me yay that these allegations manifest a bold hardihood on your part that would be commendable if they were true} but this ie not by any means a new instasce in which a weak or frail map, having uttered an untruth, finds it “ necessa- ry and expedient” to utter many more, in the vain hope of extricating bimeelf from deserved punishment by in. ducing a confiding people to believe the whole. You carnot have profitted much by cuch lamentabie in stances, sivce you choose to imitate them with bra- wen facility, and you cannot be su: or of: fended when 1 affirm, as I ¢o_ wit t reserva tion, that I did report to the convention the resolution which I bad previously drawn up and submitted to you, disapproving of the Nebraska bill in the precise words whieh you bad approveé of, and ia which it now appears in the publisbed proceedings of that body The original draft of that resolution is in the hands of the editor of the Evening Post, with its interlpeations and amend- ments, some of wkich were suggested by you, for the inspection of all persons interested, including yourself. Ta your second allegation you declare that zhe resol.u- tion which] did report was drawn by another gentle- man Fortunately, you must have a witness who drew the yesclution which you allege that I reported to the convention, and who can convict eve of us of a fist and dishonorable falsehood. I havea right to demand that you shail produce him, as you have the affirmative of this issue, ard must’ know who the gentleman is to Whom you refer; but Iam bound to tell you plainly that the men does not exist who will utter that falsehood before me, even among the meniacious tenants of the Custom House. It is, however, true that my friend, Mr. Welch, of Erie, a member cf the committee, copied it at my request, and it was reported to the convention by me in bis handwriting. It would be too absard for 6 cree to maintain that he drew it besause he copied it. In your third allegation I am informed that you did not vote against the resolutions I submit ‘ed to you, but when I offered them individually, “after the adoption of the majcrity report you voted against laying them on the tatle.”” e records of the convention to which you ap show that the resolutions which I offered ‘‘indi- vidually”’ did not include the one I had reported, ie proving of the Nebraska bill, and which was rejected, of course, by your vote in favor of the new Nebraska platform, sa sdopted by the majority. You cannot es- cape from the record of your votes. You voted to con gratulete your countrymen upon the benefits to be de- rived from the passage of the authorizing stavery to go into that vast Territory. I woud ay soon have yore’ to congratulate ay countrymen upon the revival ot the slave trade, with all its cruelties and hor- rors, which, by the laws of mo-t civilized and Christian nations, is Ceclared to be piracy, punishable summarily atthe end of the yard arm of avy public ship. After your vote it was absuré for you to vote, as you say you did, agsinst payin tie other resolotions which 1 submit. ted on the table, because that Cae that you were in favor of their pass? ge, al‘hoagh they were directly in- consistent with those you had voted for. You appeal to the records and members of the conven- tion to sustain you on all your points, Neither caa he!p you. for the records do not support your reckless alle- ations, and the members of the convention could only ee wha) transpired in thelr presence or hearing. Ican readily believe that my refolations, and espe- cislly the material one disspproving of the Nevraska Dill, made such a slight impreasion upon your mind that jou ‘Seannot row recall them in substance or detail.’?
