Description
"Not withstanding the information on this morning respecting the insertion in Dunlap's Paper on Monday, certain reasons determine us rather to return to you the Paper with our certificate. You will find that we have altered nothing material to your purpose. The omission of what concerned the President has proceeded from a scruple about offical propriety."
