TO THE PUBLIC.


friend has forwarded the Albany Evening Jour-
nal' Of Tuesday, November lst 1872


ltconains extract from letter said 10 have been
written by friend in Steuben County, dated Sept.


That extract pronounce FORGERY from beginning
'''' VIM C. BOUCK


FuLro. Nov. I'd, 1912


The above letter appears in the Albany Argus
of yesterday. Having copied the extract of a let
ter from the Journal, we copy this, and add to it
the expression of oar firm CONNECTION, founded or
facts 7cithin our knorledge, that WILLIAM C..
BoUcK DID WRITE THE LETTER ALLUDED TO.


Let us state those facts: On the oath day of
September last, while coming down from Auburn
on the Railroad, we fell in with prominent citi-
zen and active Erie Railroad man (net Whg)
who was returning from visit to the Southwest,
and he assured US that the Wings would make no
thing cut Of the Railroad for he had seen prioate
letters NOT one letter. from SILAs WRIGHT and
WILLIAM c. BoUcK to citizens Of Steuben and
AAegany, declaring themselves in the strongest
terms faoora5le to the speedy completion of that
work.


Our informant we confde in as man of char
acter and truth and ne had no possible motive for
deceiving us. We conversed with him an hour,
and we recollect his remarking that (" aIhat Bra
dish had euer said in tavor Of the Erie Railroad
pas not as strong as one Of these letters" Con-
siderng all such conversation in measure conf.
denta we never before publicly alluded to it; but
when an extract from private letter of Mr..
BSuck's answering precisely to the description
long since given us, was published, we reprinted
it, undoubtingly believing it to be genuine, AS WE
Do NOW.


If any man think it incredible that Bouck should
write such letter for local effect, and then avail
himself of some unmportant variation to pronounce
it forgery, can only say that they do not know
the seventy-faced candidate for Governor whose
advocates most prolific in anecdotes of his
electioneering tricks, his old white horse his
eating suppawn and milk, etc., but whe keep up
a most Egyptian darkness respecting his opinions
Protection, and on the proper course to be pur-
sued with our Internal Improvements.


OHIO ELEcTIoN-The official returns are not
vet all received, but it is knewn that ShaRnon's
Abolition votes amount to $500; of course there
is majority against the Loco-F Focos of 2,000.-
The Loco-Foco vote has not increased since 1910,
while the Wing vote has fallen of 10000. If the
infamous Gerrymander Bill proposed by the LEGO
Focos at the last Session of the Legislature had
passed the Wings would have elected, only sic
members of Congress, and the Loco-Focos fifteen


The Chillicothe Gazette intimates (what we be-
fore had heard) that the Right Honorable SAMUEL
MEpARr will be candidate for United States
Senator. 1t seems that the party think they have
done enough for Petticoat Allen. We believe
there is truth in this rumor, as Sam gave notice
long since that he would not be candidate for
State Printer.
