LIBERAL bgo,ea and inconsistent in regard to Po-

Now the Opinions 50 quoted appeared in The
Tribune when Mr.. Greeley was FIVE hundred
miles away, as the Editor of the Standard must
have seen from my letters in The Tribune even
L he did not Iecollect that J called on him both

While I condemn Dueling, | realize that the IN

Public Opinion To the field Of HONOR absufcIy

his own. Hence ] consider the man who en-
cages in Duel in our day far more culpablc than
one who fought twenty OF thirty years ago, when
Public Opinion was less enlightened than nov.
So much for my 'opinions,' referred to by the
STANDARD: and now let me volunteer another. 1t
is NV decided opinion that the man who are
now raising al outc.y against DGel!ng as abso-
lu,eiy disqualifying for Office after having unhesl-
tatingly supported through twelve years man
who had deliberately shot his defenceess adver-
sary dead on the field, evince degree Of hyPoc-
risy and baseness utterly without parallel.
Another 'opinion' this same Oaondaga
STANDARD editorially says;


Cny Frse Yrqde and Teas - inscribed nthe banners
Of slr. Clay, Southern force.


1t is my opinion that the writer Of this not
only asserted very bareiaced, notorious false
hood, but was perfectly aware that he did when he
penncd it. The only pretcxt he gives for /, is the
fact that a late Wing meeting probably ofthirty
o, forty persons in Murfrcesboro' Tenn.

1t is nv 'opinon' that The leading Editorial II

is again as basely, wickedly false as malevo
ence and viany could make 1t. Why does the
writer conceal the fact that this man stimulated
his followers to reject and vote down Constitu-
ton which secured the very ends he Is here repre-
scntcd as aiming at, simply because 1t had been
framed in accordance with legal authority, pre-
cselv as Constitutional changes have been made
IN all other cases


Itismy 'opinion' that the following paragraph
which | find in the same paper, Credited to the
New Hampshire Gazettc,) without hint of It's
falsehood, is another evidence of very gross de-
pravltv:


lis Kgrp1So-The author of the ,Junns Tracts which
TIE eiern st, circulating. one Rcr Nathaniel
Johnson ut been depnsed tr"m the Office o the
gospel ministry and excommunlcaed from the communion OF
the ChT,inn church, OF Newark. y. J for drgnseones'
equenng hentress. and groSs 'oe"t"uSheSS' '1"o"t'
eu6Odtment u federdi DriaeipfeS


It's my opinion that the following paragraph,
which find in the same paper, is equally false
malignant and wicked:


Mi Archer Wing. in the L. s Senate June nh de-
cred that = ne Hh,ss eaas gto pS"TsI s. sy YOU'D restrict

These, Mcssieurs. of the Onondaga Standard,
are some of the veritable opinions OF the Indl
vidual whose name you have dragged ln'o your
columns as that of the author of your extract on
Oueling. They do not imphcate you IN neon
ss,ency and bgotry mcrely-they imply that you
are habi,ualy misleading your readers by the
srossest labrications and falsehoods. Beyond
this, YOU know that the triumph of Polk will be
the downfall of the present Tariff, yet you are
every week Ccceving your readers on that vital
subject NV opinions may or may not be crro
ncous but your weekly lying is base and infamous,


II. G..


The Philadelphia Gd-ette will begin 10 suS
pect that it does not understand the Tariff Ques-
ton quite as well as it does seme other subjects,
after il has been used a catspaw by the Journal
OF Commerce a few more times. 1t says on Sat
mday,


Protection effected by ,a,lng prices foreign goods
and :ls allowing the prices o domestic goods to be ased


Here is his old blunder of uttering II truth and
Il fallacv in the same breath. Protection un-
doubtedly increases the cost OF bringing Foreig"
Goods into our markets, and 50 to great extent
shuts out those goods, leaving larger, steadie7'
and quicker market for American products than
when crippled by the Foreign competition. But
it does not follow that the prices paid by our con-
sumcrs will be hgher-on the contrary, we know
many instances in which they have been materi-
ally reduced in consequence. Compare the pre-
sen, prices OF Nails Sad Irons, Axes, Plain Cot
tons Glass and Glassware, &c. &c. with those
which prevailed when the Tariff was al a mere
Revenue point, and this truth Will be apparent
We have not donht that the entire exclusion oi
Foreign Cotlons Prints, Sc from our markets
would in short time reduce the cost OF such
roods in our markets They would be cheapcned
SIMPLY because our producers could afford to sup
DIV the whole demand cheaper than an irregular,
capricjous portion OF that demand. The imme-
date effect OF the change nigh, be an advance
