After having fatiated their malice, by blows which the edi tor was no longer able, and could not from their number eiihei ! cfFe£lually retaliate or repel; | they fought to add what they ■conceived to be difhonoron the j editor, by feverai blow? with a j whip—uoon whom the difhonor refts, the public will determine ; j the editor neither feels, nor fears them cither colle&ively or indi ' vidually. If any circumftance could i more deeply imprefson his mind, than the conviction of a nature land cxpeiienced judgment, the obligations which he is under to the pubiic in his profeffton as editor, and in his principles as a citizen, and to himfeif as a man—the obligations which he is under to expofe villainy lo public cenfure, to expofe dcl potic and wicked men to public execration, to guard with the vigilance or republican jealoufy, againfl the artifices, the intrigues O t and the injuft ice of arbitrary men : this conduct would only more and mo e attach him to his principles—but he has never fijckened, fmee he had the honor to hold his prefent ficuadon — and wh le he holds it, his hand mud perifh, or his vital princi ple rnuft; be fufpendad by the hand of fome of thole aftaftins, before he will (brink from expo- Ting villains and crimes to pubiic obloquy. Wm. Du ANF, Editor cf the Aurora. The above flatement was | drawn up by the editor in the few moments alter the lovers of good order and government had 1 departed : they adjourned to-the I Royal Hotel / and there drew up a flatement for Brown’s paper,* which tho’ generally more cor rect than might be expected fr m men fo deftilule of honor — contains a few errors. Ic appears by their own con- Feftion, that the perfons who committed this outrage were the officers of the ftift and ftcond troops of federal volunteers, the officers of the hrft, fecond and thbdcity troops, and about from 20 to 30 of the privates of thc-fe corps. The officer who addrefTd the editor was (. B. M‘Kean. The editor did not fay, that he would not name a time; he declared that he would publifh the whole of the fatls as loon as the trials now . pending were over. ♦ See UJi page* Upon being threatened bv captain M'Kean, if lie did not name the troops, the edilor laid he was not afraid of his threats, and lie warned capt. M’Kean, that this was an cledbon trick, of which he , (captain M‘Kean) ought to be cautions ; that in the time he would expolc the tranfa&ion alluded to, upon authority that cannot be quef honed. The allufion of the editor to the in .tter an election trick, was, that as it was evident that Peter Me} ick.n was the moll pro minent man in this bulinefs— in fa£i the Bully Rod of the fac tion ; that the cunning of the federalifls had thrufl captain M’Kean forward, in order to influence if poflible, Judge M'Kean s eleftion. in this opinion the editor is R.ll confident; and although •capt. M’Kean lias been their dupe, and was actually the full to Rnkc the edilor, he doubts not that the difpailionare repub lican will clifcrimmate between the weaknefs or contempt of the laws rnaniKßed by the fon, when the fledfaft integrity of the fa 'hcr for thirty years is confi de] ed. In a future paper, further notice fliall be taken of capt. M’Kean's confifuncy in this af fau.lt—the public miy compare it with this nice fenfe of honor when his vencrab’e father and virtuous hfler were afperfed. When brought down flairs, ihc editor repeatedly told the officers, thu they might tear him limb from limb, and he never would give up the author ; —and what he had offered re peatedly in the piiniing ollice, Ihe repeated below alfo before the co.vd that was cohered, that he would fight one or more ot them hngly a> a gentleman— but the ruffians a£led like jani i far ies and aifaflins—noL i.ke men of military honor or honorable courage.
