sions were well calculated to accomplish what its title indicates. On that day we find Mr. Pettit voting in favor of a motion to lay this bill upon the table, and upon its final passage, voting against it. See Congressional Globe, 1856-57, page 953 Why Mr. Pettit was unwilling to guard against these corrupt and secret influences, let his friends answer. Sg&t the last session of Congress, the following resolution was presented for their consideration, viz: “Resolved: — That r rsamus B. Matteson, a member of t. house, from the State of New York, did incite parties ! deeply interested in the passage of a joint reso.'mion for construing the Des Moines dpnt, to have here, and to use a large sum of money and other valuable considerations, corruptly for the purpose of procuring the passage of said joint resolutions through this house.” This is the game Matteson, who, when his villanies were exposed, resigned his seat in Congress to avoid expulsion. When the question was taken upon agreeing to this resolution, Mr. Pettit “dodged.” His name is not recorded among those who voted upon this question. We find that he voted upon other propositions immediately previous, and subsequent to this vote, but when it came to letting this ugly story “out of school,” the little man varu.on ied. Why? ' As this communication is already drawn out to an unusual length, I will desist. I am curious to see how this documentary aliment sets upon the stomach of Mr. Pettit and his friends. As soon as they digest it fully, I will endeavor to furnish ' them some wore of the same sort, only a little stronger. JUSTICE. Huntington, Ind., Aug. 30, 1858. Life pills and and phcenix bitters.
