avowedly drawn by him to tneet. the pr

reiected in this bill. I say nothi ng was
m-oposed but a repeal ot the uiscrnninaung
duties. The prohibition ot the circuit
ous Ivoyage" remained untouched by the
bill. . , i -. -
j You will please to remember, tha Gen.
Smith is of Baltimore ; tliat he ; presented
the Baliimore petition, of which you make
so much use, ami that he took the .lead in
this w hole business, at the instigation 'of the.
citizens of that place ; so, at leat, he ob
served last Winter.
His bill,.therefuie, may be taken as an
authentic indication of the manner in which
your aqts were unlerstood by lim and his
constituents. Consequently, all you have
..llegetkon-that head falls to the ground.
1 have thus proved that you have totally-
mistaken tire character of this bill.
With regard to its fate you say, " its
fniiil rejection by a majority of ouly two
votes, shows that it was not for want of
sufficient understanding of ihe intent of
the act of Parliament, that the conditions
of it were not accepted by the U. States."
I have already shown you how far the
bill was from meeting the intent of the act
of Parliament, although drawn by General
Smith for that purpose. You will there
fore feel the awkwardness of your position,
in saying that the rejection of that bill was
a rejection of .the prolfer of your act.
But-what if 1 should say that the bill was
not rejected? I will hot say so ; but 1
will quote you General Smith, whom 1
presume you will admit to be competent
authority Tor it was his own bill
. , 1 took my own course," says the
General, in his speech last Winter, "and
moved that the riTpoi t of the Committee
ou Commerce should be recommitted with
instructions, and 1 succeeded by a
large
majority of the Senate, ll was scut to the
fomujiittee of. Finance, and i reported a

of time. I t was not rejected, as Air. Can.'
ning has slated. The Senate simply refu
sed to consider ;t, because uiembers had
tither bills which they were anxious to "act
on.
' If, then, General - Smith is right, the
Senate, ifistead tif ivjecting this bill, mere
ly laid it aside for want of tiuie to; act, On
it.l in. ihe press of business, at the close of

You know which side General Smith . has
taken in this contrjversv, and I therefore
commend to your special notice his1 decla
ration that but - for want of time his bill

convict him ofbargain, intrigue and corrup

they should fail in their proof uf the cliarges
--iV nothing should be found t authorize
their assertions, let them be visited with
the infamy and contempt which the enor

friends" are willing to abide the issue of the
investigation which will undoubtedly be
instituted-by the p.oductnm of Ujis letier
from Gen. Jackson. It is not our purpose
to express an opinion at this time, as to
the motives which mi'y have actuated Gen.
Jackson in propagitin stitemeiits. so de
rogatory to the public character of Mr.
Clay, and susiaiued by testimony, ..appa
rently of a loose and -uncertain, description
nor is it for us to say, what ' kind or
quantity of evidence, . might be sufficient
to produce an irresistable conclusion in
the mind. of the General, that a great poli
tical rival would descend t use the basest
means for the promotion of his own ambi
tious, purposes. The fetter speaks for it
self, and we recommend an attentive pe
rusal of it to our readers, as it ."will cer
tainly lead to a course' of inquiry attend

Hermitage, June 6, 1827.
Deah Sin -Your letter of tlie15th ult. from
Louisville, Ky. is just received,! and in conformi-
iy wiui your. requesi,: i uauress my answer to
Wheeling, Va. Your inquiries relative to"-the
propositions of bargain midc thrcTtiii Mr. Clay's
friends to yrnie of mine, concernm,tf the then
pending Presidential election, were answered
treely and frankly at the time, but without any
calculation tout they vwoufd be thrown into the
public journals hut facts cunr.ot be altered, and
as your letter seems not to have been written for
publication, I can assure you, that having-no con
cealment myselt, nor any dread arising from
what 1 may have said on the occasion and subject
alluded to, my feelings towanls you are not the
least changed. I always intended, should Mr.
Clay come over his own name, and denv having

any Knowieag-e oi uie cramunicaiioii made Dy
his friendsto my friends, and to ore, that I would
give him thename of the gentleman thro whom
that communication came. ; ' v ".'
1 have not seen your letter alluded to as hav
ing been published in the Tel.-graph,' ahhoug'h
that paper, as 1 am informed, is regularly mailed
forme at Washington, sTTll I re-ceive it very ir
regularly, and that containing your letter has not
come to hand, of course, I cannot say whether
your statement is .substantially correct or ii)t 1
will repeat, however, again, tlie occurrt? nee, and
to which my reply to vou must have conformed,
and from which it there has been any variation,
you can correct it. U is this :- -Early-in January.

1". . Ba 1 - a a .
uiy, visuea me one morning, ana observed, tliat
he had a communication he was desirou3 to
make to me that he wus informed there was
a great infrigue going on, and thought it was
right I should be inf ormed of it, that he came as
a tr.ena, and let me receive the communication
as I might, the friendly - motives through which
it was made, be, hoped would prevent any change
oi inenusmp orieeimg wuu regard to inm. ! o
w hich I replied, from his high standing as a gen
tleman and member of Congress ami from hi:
uniform friendly 'and gentlemanly' conduct to
wards myself, I could not suppose that he w oul d
make any communication to me, wlucn be sup
pOased was improper, therefor;, his motives be
ing pure, let me thin k as t might of the commu
nication,' my feel ngs towards him would remain
unaltered. The gentleman proceeded : He said
he had been informed hy the f riends of Mr: Clay.
that the friends of Mr; - Adams had made overtures
to them, saying, if Mr. Clay and his friends would
unite in aid or the. election oi Mr. Adams, Mr.
Clay should be Secretary of btate t hat the

That the, Panama ''Mission may not re

such as may be made of a commercial na

Where has1 the worthy editor ever seen,3
in the legislaiou of this country., or in the
execu rioti of its la vs.4'' he plan of Congress to
" unite our destinies with theirs, or to form
alliances of Jauy sort ?" There i noihiug
of the kind, to be found iirour laws, reso
lutions. Executive Conimunicatioiis, or
Keports of Committees. 1 There- is one'
broad error at the bottom id" the whole pa
ragraph,and Of similar commentaries which
we have eenj in other intelligent and re
spectable papers. ;It consists apparently!
in cortfouudiiig the international and pe
culiar objecti of the other Governuieuts
with that of the GovenVmttnt of the. United
States, which has not ouly not engaged in
ay scheme of-44 uniting our ,detinie& with
theirs" but has specialty protested against
it- The project certainlv had some ref er
ence to effect," so far as we looked on
it with a. favijirable eye: we . hoped: ' that
the effect would be to conciliate the- good
will of the Southern .Goyeruinenls. We
believed it would do it, and we belfeve so
still. Nor 'Wjill our opinion be changed,
though tiie unsettled stale of tilings hi the
UcpuUiic of Colombia, -Willi whom the plAu
originated, should for the present have the
effect. to defeat or defer the asaembhtf toe
Congress. . . ; - ;
Our object, however, in taking up- the
pen, was not to dilate o.i this subject, but
to direct the attention -of the very respec-"
table etlilor of the Commercial Gazette to
the following ;extracts from tlie President's
Message to the House of Uepresentaue
in asking its sanction of the'T.tUauia: Mis
sion, which Wjiif show h;.n how eutiiely he
has been tnisled by couleiiiponiry commen
tary, as to th actual nature and . objects
of that missions and especially as to its al
leged c.)iiiH o.nituietiL of the, des inies, of
the United States. - ' . t j
Willi regard to Ihe objects" in which the
Agents of the United States are expected to take
part in the deliberations of that Congress, I deem
it proper to premise, tliat these, objects did not
form tlie only, nor even the principal, motive tor
my acceptance of the invitation.' My first and
greatest inducement was to meet, in the spirit of
Lindntss and frietuhhip, an oitrtut e mcuJc in th .i
spuitby three ta?stct lit publics of this hemrsphety."
Were it meji ely that ive might be correctly find
speeililti informed o f the p:-octediitgs of the .Cn
gres, and of the progress and issile of ' their negoti
ations, I should liold it .advisable that we biiould
T.otd an accredited agency with " ciiem, placed
in such confident al reiaiious with the other
members, as would ensu.e the ' authenticity,
and the safe u; id. early transm.issioo of its re
