We give thus statement of facts, that injustice may not be done the contractors. And as an act of justice to Horel, Snapp Sr Co. we think the lntelli- gencer should correct the article it published. We stated short time since, that when Woodruff should complete his state ments about the Banner, that we would re- ply te them iuIly--not doubting but that they will be fully satisfactory 10 the democ- racy every where, But upon reflection we have obtained our consentso far, as to no- tice him in the following manner this week --lest the little fellow should gel mad with himself, and in-his anger, commit suicide, or something worse.
