Excerpt from The Letters of Columbus: Originally Published in the Boston Bulletin; To Which Are Added Two Letters of Col. Orne to Gen. Duff Green
A writer in the New Hampshire Patriot, under the signature of flan-janus, has commenced an attack against a portion of Gen. J ack son 's friends, in Boston, which presents some claims to their notice. I do not hazard a conjecture as to his name. The matter of the piece affords sufficient indications that it is a Boston production, and many circumstances satisfy me beyond a doubt that it may be deemed the act ofa Boston pa1ty. The piece is remarkable for a boldness of as sertion, for a rancorous spirit of hostility, and for a recklessness of truth, which have usually characterized the writers in the Boston Statesman, but the composition evinces a greater degree of taste than has usually been noticed In that 'virulent paper. The writer is not,. Probably, one of the master spirits of the party. People who have much at stake, do not like to commit themselves too openly in asser tions which cannot be maintained, and the falsehood of which must rea coil, with fearful energy, on themselves. They prefer to pour their slander through se'cret channels, and to leave nothing visible of the assassin but the blow that he strikes.
