It is, there- fove, far from strange that any rumor gains credence that implicates the supposed aguressors agamst public prosperity, ‘These are some 0: the reasons which caused the ; public mind to be impressed as with trun by the Teport that Mr. James M, Sweeny, brother of Peter 4b, Sweeny, had gone, ikke Woodward and Garvey, “where une Woodbine twineth,” or, in other words, Woodward, suppu3ing tbe destination of all to be the same, Mr. Samuel J.
