We belaid from wiiat the lady -aid that .-'ue h.ad no objection to our having THE IM'I-MKM, And that we had h.er aulhority to ask for it. Imh-.d it is our recollect i. m that we di-tincllv told Mrs. Young that we should a-k for the p i per horn Mr. Stratlou. i and wv are po.-iliw that .-he made no sort of obieeii.in. At anv time Mrs. Young eon Id have had, and can still have whenever she do ires it, a copy of the in-tnunent. Knowing thai its contents had been r-ad by .Mr. Stratlou, Strat-lou, we could not have dreamed of any undue advantage hum our regaining regain-ing the paper while, on the other j hand, we could understand how a slight alteration in the wording of the document docu-ment might very materially alter its purport. We thought then, and we think now, that the paper was safer in ourhands than in tho.-e of the parson. When Mr. Stratlou asserts that vc have in any manner defamed ihe ladv's character he asserts an infamous. infam-ous.

We have perilled much on the issue of thi.-. cause: we have worked in it faithfully; we have done all that our research and encrgy could accompli.-h to make it successful; success-ful; and we do not intend that this canting hvpocrile and vile detainer shall place" us in a false position. Jn reganl to the language attributed tc (ieneral Maxwell. we have the author- itvof that gentleman for saying that his words on the occasion referred to were not correct Iv statid. In this, as in every instance, Mr. Slration with considerai'le art, manages lo intermingle inter-mingle sulfu-ient truth with falsehood, to serve a base purpose and create A FALSE IMrUESSloN. The cause of Mrs. Young is not lost. We believe that she will and must ultimately ul-timately triumph. We have sought lo do our duty; we have la I wired earnestly earn-estly in her behalf; and we intend so U continue until the Supreme Court of this Territory shall either sustain us or reverse its own decisions; and wc hope that Mr. Slration will pardon us if wc shall conclude not lo trust hint I further in the premises. y F.
