derived Capt. larryatt next cpi 1 es, wltl credit.
an account written by me of the b'ae murder tf
Galpin, and then goes cn to give his or Violet's
description of that transaction.
Fur cool, open, bare-fit ced tfircntery, this lat
ter false hood is without a parallrd; Soiec one
hundred and eighty witnesses, many of whom
ro still living, saw ihe barbarous Murder, or
Galpin, and will testify to the truth of my dts
ciiption of that affairwill say that ho was a
door a sickly, ir.ofT'nic man, whose onlyfault
or crime was that he had become by inhumani
ties and privatiots untxamp!ed, too weak forth,
er to continue the dreadful march through New
Mexico. Even within hearing of Captain Mui
fyatt is now living an Fnglish gentleman who
as present at the murder, and who ill certi
fy id the fidelity o"iny8rttcmt nt f yet in the
face of all this poor Galpin 'ri stigmatized as a
baee murderer, and while a prisoner iradj to
pay tlie penalty of taking the life of & Mexican
woman i with Lis 'enn.-; A matt on able to walk,
is made to beat out the brain of an unfortunate
female with a bar of iron ! ' ? .
Why, for what purpofe, Capt. .Marryatt ha
lent his aid in giving circulation tosuch a tissue
of iittcrary. larcenies as Uis'narrative centioue
and then crowned all by a falsehood so blatk
hearted and so rc Cecil ve iiot only upon an; an
lortuf.ntv mn bat bhr cnitieTaffes.'T am at a loss
to cenjecture. F.vcn if the stock of brain orig
inally vouchsafed him has been frittered away
in i' c production of Toter Simples, Japhels,and
what not, there crta inly has been no necessity
for the crcatwn cf a story ao nt'erly destitute of
trutb one whick can so easily be nailed to the
counter as a Coinage of the basest die. I knew
that hltle coild be expected from hint save ct
ult nt tiiingsand libelioua abuso while speaking
of or country and its institulfons,but I certain
ly did notllink his brain so bankrupt, hU iniel'
ect so striclsu bv poertyV as t drive Jiirh in

To take ur and" notice tho hundred and. one
