slanderous, and were written without the least provocation on my part, or the slightest justification or excuse upon yours. I demand redress, and ask that you shall appoint some time and place, outside of Jefferson county, when and where it will be given. This note will be handed to you by my friend, Mr. George Thomas, who, as such is authorized to act for me. Respectfully, Roger W. Hanson. Geo. D. Prentice. Louisville, Sept. 3, 1861. Roger W. Hanson.--Sir: Yours of the 2d inst. is received. You sought "redress" for the very articles you complain of by publishing a scurrilous pamphlet, and, if you "demand" any more "redress," you may get it in the same way or in any other way you can.

orters will not believe him. "Do you think you know better than the telegraph?" say they, and they repeat the story. The following is the last, dated from Washington, September 7th: "The Reported Death of Jefferson Davis.--The statement by the Press Reporter that the Government had had no reliable information of the death of Jeff. Davis from Louisville, and placed no credit in the reports of his demise, is not the special dispatch received by your correspondent on the evening of the 5th inst., announcing Davis's death, which was shown to the President and members of the Cabinet; and the former, knowing the author, at once announced his confidence in the dispatch, and said it was the first reliable information that the Government had received. The Press Reporter is too apt to pronounce positive declarations as only unreliable reports, simply because he is not smart enough to obtain the information first. There is not the slightest doubt of Davis's death." Bennett himself
