Saturday Evening,

An ofuial puYiiotipn appears in the last Museum,

In the pp. lent indaiue, we fear, that *t!fe rejuTor

Rutledge and die forged Letters!
When we p'ub’ifhtd the cf .davit* rhe

knowledged letter', and thoiY (ignrd iieiTroy, ir v. ;;s
our intention to have puVii.'h.-d ion -!iite!v t H)fc o<

new circumilances appeared tolr n doldirg and w:
felt juftitied in waiting the re fill.
To give a/l the publics:tons would occupy more
room than would be ufefui or proper, ./u cpiromo

Tite following gentlemen hove tefYfYd their bv-
Iliet that I*utledge was Ncr the w-iiicr of the (orn

oath, rh ‘the did not \vr : te ’< tiers nor had
knowledge of them until thr ;‘ pu*oliearit?n.
This lat! telbmony, we fii„uU think, might bsvc
been forborn. xot rn r t on the (iatement ir- rh--
public papers, that Mr ‘Rr.d-d- e nv? hisnatb befdtv
ny of the others were given ; wc cannot in the li
tustion lie ilood, give it weight : on the contrary, it
operates cgnirdt him in our optr.i.jn. ills denial wa’
to iiave been expciffccl, and IhouH be confidertd fuf
ficienf proof o! his innoceuc-* until reKaered improba
ble by direct or circunMlamt.il evidence: but ins oath
(and what forger would not get rid os’ tl>t
liis oath) exhibits an anxiety to clear bim(clf, wiiicli
does not look like the feci in'* s o'irnr-cence.
I he Hltode-Island p'iners ibite that thofewhn b.tvt
lepo(.d in tavor of Mr. Rut'ecige, did not in tkc ex
atr.ination appear like the ceiiber.ite iearcliers ot
truth. Whatever paiilon they might have felt at th*
supposed nnjuft charge, it is pt elumptuou* to fay
they would Kate coatr:nv to tht ir opinion*
One circumdance, however, is ot weight. It is
slated that the hand writing ot the forged letters, he
gins by leaning the Jcontrary way from that of Mr.
► Rutledge’s and ends bv a tTr greater likeness to his
ulual hand :like that of a man attempting to difauife
hjs accullorned mode, and gradually refunding i r . i his
not he by effort, tor a man arretnpring to
imitate would ror bean by a total dtfimiUrity, nor
end hy a great likeness
i hat the letters were forged is a £ : vm point. That
it was done by a friend of Mr. [elferfcns is notlikrly.
T!ie .Yew-Yotk Herald conclude that it Mr.
Rutledge wifned to entrap the Preitdc-nt, he would
have made arrangements totake up the letters in an
swer ; his remark bens the appearance of candour,
but it is unfortunate ; the author him fell c-ntradi<f!s
it by faying it would have betrayed him. Tire pro
bability from the name sliumed, that the an
Iwers, if any were given, Would full into the
bands of Mr. Rutledge, has uor, we believe, been no
treed, though the preemption is that i ich an
expectation might exit! Mr. Geffrov is no politician,
and i* the acknowledged friend of Mr. Kinloch, \s-:>o
is eery intimate with Mr. Rutledge. What more
likely than that Mr. Geftroy fitouid (how tltofe letters
to his friend, which he would not know how to sc
■aount for receiving ? Bnt it the preiident committed
‘TritnUli in his reply, and this gained publicity any
bow, the object of the writer would he answered. and

marvand review.
‘When all the facis 2re taken into view, which in
