Filler Humor, A correspondent of tho A tanta Consti tution writing bom Columbus over the algnalttre ot F. 11. If., any* : “I le’rgraphed you about a little prrtnu nl word battle iu the convention between Gov. Bniltb and Mr. W. T. HevIII, the ell tor ol the Moilwethcr Vindicator. It la rumored that Saturday aMarß'<on, Oovot er nor Smith went to Mr. Kevin's room til Ihc hotel autl tol l bim hi* opinion ol him lu language more emphatic than compl aaeutary. I heard It all over the streets, and support) It I* tpr. No BhVnl split." We are not inclined lo notice euch l.ulo fhruil* as tbe above, particularly when made by a correspondent w hoso every rr port, we think la marked by the strongest feeling ol parli/.mship against the dele gates who voted lor Mr. It.nits lu the Co lumbus Convention. Ho say* lie hoard the above recited rumor “a’l over the streets.” We never hcaid the viot retnutt ldut of it until we saw it in t e Coustitu lion. No sttrh interview as that reported took place, and no such language as that put hi tho ntou'li of the diatingu'sbed gen tleman was used towaula Mr. Hevlll either m hia room oi alaewhere by Gov. Smith or any one else. The rumor 1* la',e in cvety particular and is manufactured ol whole elolb. B. H. H. eoulii have easily found out the froth or la'ally ol tho reported statement sad betray* malice by endeavoring to prej udice tba public mind by the circulation ot an abaurd end l.dao rumor. We dont know F. H. R. ; k claims to be a corres pondent of the Constitution ; in tbe tut me, let him be satisfied that Uiete is at least a color of truth respecting hit rumors Wore Ike aende the n bioadoaat over the country. nttuem baring that In this day ol enlighten ment, of newspapers and telegraphs, that false rumors cau be easily corrected and that their disaemiaatlou damages only those who employ such mcaus to iuju.e an opponent or traduce a paity.
