Published by John A. Gray, printer. Includes correspondence related to a law suit in which Gerrit Smith accuses several individuals of libel. In a manifesto, members of the Vigilant Association linked Smith's name with the Central Association, a charge which Smith denies. Smith's defenders call the linking of Smith with the Central Association "wholesale murder upon Mr. Smith's reputation."
