Thcs. we have an anonymous accept


ance of. our proposition. The extreme


modesty with which it is put forth, as


we'll as The choice Of position, shows that


the author, if not very good soldier


in the raLks, is at least skilful tactic


ian, and something of general The


public have right TO know wto il is that


accepts our challenge, and at the same


time discaims the ability to do Justice to


the doctrines of his party. If we con,


sent 10 this stroke ofhis genoralship, on


the one hand allowing the disputant to
escape responsibility and refuse 10 ack-


nowledge any error into which he may


be shown in course ofargument to have
fallen, and on the other charge defeat,
ir in any thing he should be defeated,
on his own weakness, while he PERSISTS
that the doctrines OF his party are tri-
umphant, would be to embark in dis
little calculated to arrive at trulh, and
which perchance will be more takenup
with collateral matters than with the
main issues presented. For the reason
that disagreement might arise we sug-
gested an umpire, who could not act Ie-
tween us and an unknown correspondent
And the fact that a question has even
now fairly arisen shows the necessity
of such an umpire. We suppose him
wholly mistaken in asserting that par
ty acting in opposition to a measure is
bound to commence the argument by az
1rming that negative, simply because
he has sought the discussion.


Let an umpire be appointed, whose
shall be final IN all future ques
ions, and lctus be authorised 10 disclose
he name Of the writer, and we will
'aiye all objection 10 commencing the
iscossion, and give some views on the
'exas question in a week or two. We
nink these terms cannot be reasonably
bjectcd to. The author Of the above
communication is TAR more competent to
'e argument (much as the grace of
odesty keeps him in the shade) than
oct ofthe itincrant big guns who trav-
in north Mississippi, serving the e'oy-
of locolocoism in the true whig garb !
democracy.
