Now Ictus it: lire -,),:,t was the advice given by tiiis di-tinguished membe;- ot Con gress, and what was the corruption nt which Le was willing to counive. Lit Gen eral Jackson himself answer. Over his own signature, f-n the 1 tu of July, 1537, he said : ' Tim stati-meiit contained in my letter ty Mr. Berei this : That, in January, ineiu ber t. on'res cf hih Te lle . -i;. ... -..j i e had been informed Lv the friends of Mr. Clay, that the friends of Mr. Adams hai made overtures to them savins, if Mr. CUt ana M.. : wouia unite :n si i ct thu election of Mr. Adauw, Mr. Clay should be S.cretary of State ; that the friends of Mr. Adams were urging as a reason, t) induce the friends of Mr. Clay to accede to tl proposition, that, if I were elected Presi- dent, Mr. Adams would Le continued Sec- retary of Staie (ir.ueudo, there would Le m room lir Ki iitociiy :) that the iritiuj ot Mr. Clay stated, that the Wt-t did not wart to separate- from the West ; aud if I would t ' i . . . .1 .1" .! . 1 iiieuu:, .v .i. , .out, in e , -t. . vi - it vivi-.
