In letter to the editor ot that journal, he expres- ses his dissent 10 the use ofhis name, as being premature, and the future too en- llrely unknown to permit him to judge ot what t may hereafter be proper for him 10 do. Mr. W1Rr in this letter in. dulges in very gloomy forebodings as to the late of his country. In one part of It he says--s. There arc other subjects .ot fearful magnitude that press them. selves on theimmediate attention of the patriot, and demand all his solieitade.

States. l pre- tend to no right to control the press in the selection of it's topics. But l ma, rlghtfully desire to have it understood that, at such a time as this, and under the circumstances of public alarm and anxiety that surround us, l take no pleasure, but the reverse, in seeing my name the renewed subject of news paper discussion, for purpose so re- mote and contingent.
