Transcript

   Some of our friends have misrepresented or misunderstood our remarks in yesterday's Atlas, in relation to Doyle. We do not wish to convey the idea that Doyle was too much of an imbecile or mono maniac to be punished for his participation in the late stampede among the slaves in this vicinity; but that others must have been engaged in it, who were more capable than he was, of originating and conducting such an enterprise; and that our citizens ought to be on the look out for them.
