Show Who has Evaded? Lake City, June 15', '74. EJ:jvs Ilcraltt; Thoueh the great champiou of the Wind ProcE-d has the old adago acaiiisi him in regard to barking riue,s, and though his attack upon an absent, and fur a time defenceless person, is not calculated to elevate him to a very high position aa an authority au-thority on tho point of courage, still, supiMfeu we accept him at his own valuation, as "a mighty man of valor," val-or," and rank your correspondent as the veriest poltroon, to what degree will that ailect tho controversy? Will that revolutionize mathematics to tho extent of changing SO to 05? I failto sec it. I find it equally didicult to see that falsehood can be transformed into truth by tho magic of Lhe name attached, at-tached, whether that bo J. K. Nichols or Jigger. We must not permit this windy concentrator to raise too much dust with his wind. It is a matter of supreme mdidercuce to your correspondent corres-pondent whether Mr. X. deigns to notice him or not. His object ha 9 been accomplished if candid men, who feel an interest in such matters, have been led to compare Mr. Ys tjj.iKc article with Mr. At wood's report, re-port, and to enquire whit there is in Mr. Vs record as a concentrator to give especial weight to hia opinion. Mr. N ichois teems to be the only per--on who can Ice! any interest in knowing know-ing the name of Lhe author of these communications, and it is possible he mav be anconuiiedHted in due time. |
