We know that statements made by the Carthage mob in their resolutions, as published in the late _Warsaw Message,_ were false. We also felt convinced that the parties themselves were apprized of that fact, and that it was a thing generally understood by the public; and therefore we did not trouble ourselves about it. But having the following testimonies and affidavits sent us for publication, we insert them for the information of those who may not have had opportunities of informing themselves relative to this subject. STATE OF ILLINOIS LEE COUNTY. ss. We the undersigned citizens of the town of Dixon, county of Lee, State of Illinois, being duly sworn according to law, depose and say that we have seen the article entitled "Statement of facts connected with the arrest of Joseph Smith and his discharge therefrom," published in the _Warsaw Message_ of the date of 15th of July, A.D. 1843; and have also seen an editorial article in the same number of said paper, in which it is stated that said statement of facts was furnished by E. Southwick, one of Mr. Smith's attorneys in said case; and that we know the fact stated in that statement--to wit, that Reynolds, for a considerable length of time immediately after his arrival at Dixon, did peremptorily refuse to allow Smith a private interview with his counsel; and that said Reynolds did expressly state that no conversation could be had with Smith by his attorneys, unless he, Reynolds, was present at such conversation. The length of time which such refusal to allow said private conversation continued, was, in the belief of these deponents, at least one hour; and that such private conversation was not permitted by Reynolds, until after being informed by at least two of these deponents (Messrs. Dixon and Sanger) that such private interview must be allowed Mr. Smith, as that was a right he had guaranteed to him by law. JOHN DIXON, J. D. McCOMSAY, ISAAC ROBINSON, J. ALBERT HELFENSTEIN, L. P. SANGER, S. G. PATRICK, E. SOUTHWICK. {68} Sworn and subscribed to before me at Dixon, this 29th day of July, 1843. FREDERICK R. DUTCHER, Justice of the Peace for Lee County, Ill.
