Backed Square Out

Mn Editor : - It scciiis that "A Republiian,'.' alias "D P. T.y' alias "Roil Sputter," the Chelaea correspondent oí the Journal is greutly Irbubled n spirit on ncicouat oí those "Chalfenge-' and the r finale. Not sali.-tiod niih liis ftrt roply to my cniiitnunicalion in the A gas of Sept. 2th. lic, in tbo Journal of the lOth ins1., pimüshos a Sfoond answor and hopelessly undortukes io excuse Chelscii Bopubiican?, irorn their proBent unhappy dilemma. Ent, pennit tae to give a synopsis of the actual programma tl e have fo! 1 iv, t;d for the 'ast two montha : First, I arranged to discuss politica! issues witli Mr, Ci.ahk, ftnd ka subaquenüy "backed square out.' Second, "Many Kopubliuans" sent an anonymouö ehalknge to the''Ohelsea Douglhs Club," and when askcd to endorse their challenge, tjity " backed square out." Tkird, "A Rcpublican" published in tlio Journal of 8opt. 19th, that 'with consent" of Judgo Gka.nqui:, thoy (the Rej.u'.ilicuns) dared U9 "to trot out Phceaiz Bank Lotheop" for a discussion, but so soon as I, in tho Argus oi the 2Sth uit., announoed Mr. Lotürop's wHltogness to accept their challenge or ïnvUation, iorthwith Mr. "D. E T.," on the part of Chelsoa Kepubücaiis, re spondod in the Journal, of the 3d inst. that "so far as Llio Republicana in this section challenging Mr. Lothroi1 is concerned, we do ,not do any such thing"(!) Certaiuly not, Mr. "D.F, T." Every ono knows by this time thatyou were only in l'un, and although in the same communication your voice is still for war, and you u?e the l'ollow mg language, viz.: "We (the Tïepubli cans) say to them (the Detnocracy publicly, moet us, or da e vs to meet you" yet we know you are always jst ing, for the Democraoy have oompliec with eaoh of your re juests, an .1 have for weeks been waiting to oblige you but it was u eloss, for you always ''backed square out," The Jjurnal correspondent has evidftntly chosen an uniortunate occupa tion, viz., ''railsplitting," for his wedge has recoiled on biioeelf with fatal effect. The truth is, Republican challenges hereabouts, are like tho shov - rnan's snake, "Ladies and gentlemen" said the exlubiter, " this snake is very dangerous tf he bites, but he neccr bites.'" "Railsplitter," cvidently thinkshahas found a "mare's nest," for in his communication oí the lOtb inst., he saja th Democracy 'O-ti raan i:i iba weat part rtf Sviv.m to nhswer (h;m "Ií..ü-í;!'ter,") iü t'-o A'gxi, with Iho permisión of Mr. Dxpkw to usu lii.-i name."' I dn iml wi-h to go out of my way to evinoe ansie tv fnr literary fame, but "Eaüsplitter's" rtssertion i.-s imply false I ncvcr g:ivü any man permisión to use my na:ii(! or to vvriio the; nrticlotn quostio ; vvhich I wish ';!iiilslittof" to clearly understand.and nlso my responsibiüiy ftip every ttiïhg T have asserted I will only add in conclusión that tho Clielsea Deinorflcy have long hopod to unite wit h thu Rpublioans in th;il "jiiint meeting" of whieh "I).
