To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
I am neither a newspaper correspon

to the Jonural for two or three years,
and now ask the use of your columns to

some gentlemen whom I supposed to be
connected with your office, gave me such
a deplorable represen tatiou of the people
of the South, and of Columbus iu par
ticular, that I almost felt afraid to vent
