I at thie time rose to a qes lon of privilege, and replied to this nahouious t'alsehiood against Senattor ti. C.

The Taxpayers' (donveni ion wias a volunutary' body and hiad no egal existence or Constitutionial pow r's and could not3 have maude such a re inquishment. The charge that I ever n(ered into any such agreement or hat I ever' re)cfved pay for the saime Is 8 ise as it is mnalicious. Trhe third charge, that I was the con-l taut defbuder of McDevitt, the iladi-| al I 'tresurer of FElgefield, is also fidse, inever defended McD)evitt On thie rImnal s1ide of the Court.

The amount of t fe in this case was re4ported by Cl cellor Carroll, to whom it was rel red as a pecial referoe to inquire a ro)ortI a reasonable fee for our wa in this caso; and he reported, after t iug testilnony as to tha valuo of q services, that. we were entitled to a of $1,O00, which report was conlirn by the Circuit Jtdge. The fourth charge is also false. never did advocato tltt en. But should be withdrawn and that, Whit more should be put-in his place.

I have again answered these st charges, which originally sprung fr im," ltalical opponents, and I am n1 willing for the public to decide au their truth or falsity.
