SLATING THE SLANDERERS.

The following; is an extinct from a spe cli made by Mr David liiichunau in the AewSouh Wales Parliameni, He. was spi-aking of some, false accusatioi.s made aj:ain.-t a brother legislator, and !ii.-> iiiii'_-u;)i_;e, as vi.l be seen, is an excellent, ( xample of torci hie and scathing invective :" JVo character is su h.iteiui as tije common s'ahd'.rer . Hoik ruble nieuiiers would, he dare say, lmve found in the coulee of their experience thut there were in existence certain savsiiro animals which fed uj>un corrupdun, whiM- richest repast was derived frou. the fti'al of ihe graveyards, who scented the putrid c.<rcas> from afar, aud hastened to appease their Juthsome appi-tiies with the festering tilih of tlie charm-1 hou.-e .Sav;i»e and revolting as those animals were, worse still was a tw.)-U'g^ed human animal of the same species, equally savage and equally loathsome, whose breath was poison, aiid who lived only to sully aud polute everything he touched.
