DEBATE IN, THE SENATE, ON THE NO
! J MINATION OF MR. VAN BUREN.
Ma.-Fobstyh's Speech 'in Reply to Mb. Miller.
N Mr. President: We were told fay the Senator
who has just concluded, in the beginning of his
extraordinary speech, that he mtcnaca 10 puo
lisli hU rrmftrks for his own vindication. No
friend of Mr. VanBuren will complain of the
fulfillment of this intention.
1 Of the lorifflist of offences committed by Mr.
Van Buren,, it was natural that the Senator
should begin with those at home. lie says
General Jackson has been separated from him
and his friends by the artifices of Mr. Van Bu
irr'n. and he tells us of his own zeal and devo
tion to the hero of New Orleans; and read ex
tracts from his own speech at the Waxaws,
when he assured his auditors that 44 the philoso-
rihv of nntiiTf" was " ft Riiffieient PUarantv" for
sullied integrity, in whose hands the., best "and
dearest interests of the people may be safely
confided. And are rsuch men office seekers,
and interested devotees to existing power in
South Carolina? If so, what are' the patriots?
They must be angels. They cannot be men.
The Senator may eulogize his friends to the
utmost of his power, exalt them in the scaie oi
talent and integrity to the highest pitcn : i en-
ture to place his opponents by tneir siucr auu

-Mr- Cobb and Mr. Crawford have been named
by the Senator. 'Mr. Cobb is no longer among
ji3; to answer. He did his duty, according to
his conception of that duty, in this and every
other act of his public life. His friends know
dat his conduct was open, and his motives pure.
sThc ground he stood upon here, he never aban
doned while he lived.4 Mr. Crawford, I am
surprised the Senator should think, (Mr. Mil
Izr) said he alluded to Mr. Crawford (Joel) a
'member of the housjj q representatives when
the Seminary question was agitated. I am
f lad to be corrected. Mr. Joel Crawford acted
with his friends and is, guilty of the charge of
having voted lor enquiry into the beminole war.
Iff lives to remember, not to retrret that act.
Ti'his Union party, which seems to haunt his
imagination, if I am not strangely mistaken,
had the honour, a short time since, to number
him os a member of it, (Mr. Miller denied that
-he had ever been.) Well, sir, the Senator ought
ro know: but in this fact, I cannot be mistaken
-the Senator was a candidate, brought forward
by that party for the state government and
the cause of postponing for two years the ele
vation of the accomplished gentleman who now
stands ct the helm of her affairs. The rccol
lection of that fact should have prevented i
charge against them of selfish motives,
love of office, devoted to the dominant
power: following like the, sun-flower, the mo
tions of the risen sun. Tothis last charge, I
$o not plead for them, not guilty they do fol

not change its attitude for the rising, or the me

tions, all malignant scrutiny into the every day
business of political aspirants. Their private
characters are known to the people; and so far
as character should operate to their prejudice,
it will be weighed. Even the defensive recri
minations of the Globe deserve censure. But,
Sir, I do not admit that Mr. Van Buren r the I
administration, is responsible for the lighter of
fences much less the enormities of any news
paper writer -even for the Globe, which, black
as the gentleman may consider it, is as pure as
this unsullied sheet, compared with the jour
nals that are published by its side. But does
the Senator mean to assert that every one who
aids in the establishment of a newspaper, is res
ponsible for its enormities ? Will the Senator
consent that his friends and all his opponents
shall be judged by the same rule? I ask him
to glance his eye back over the history of the
press in this District for a few past years. Does
he remember the Federal Republican, the Wash
ington City Gazette, the Washington Repubh-
can i jjoes ne Know any inmg oi me national
Journal and the United States Telegraph ?
Has he present to his recollection the atrocious
calumnies by which they have been polluted
their dark insinuations and open falsehoods, by
which the reputation of the virtuous of both
sexes has been wantonly and grossly assailed !
Slander has flown still flies to all corners of
our country, as if borne on the wings of the
wind. If. all these things are present to his
view, will he admit that those who patronised
these journals were participators f those hate-
lui crimes f Can we trust the renutation and
shall be judged by his own rule. Then God
help the Senators friend's ; for they are beyond
all human aid and so are those who patronize
and support, in times of high party strife, a tho
rough-bred partizan newspaper. Leaving to
others to adopt or reject the rule, and to apply
it or not to the patrons and supporters of the
Journal and the leiegraph, and to the former
patrons ot the Washington Republican, the
Washington City Gazette and Federal Repub
lican, I deny, explicitly, Mr. Van Buren's res-
ponsioihty lor any article ot the lilobe. it the
Senator, will produce satisfactory proof that he
has been instrumental in establishing a press
here or elsewhere, for the purpose of dragging
down, by calumnies any good man s name, my
vote shall damn him herc my voice every
where.
In the spirit of manly kindness, not in the
spirit of this discussion, I appeal to the Sena-
tor to reflect upon the irreconciieaDie contra
diction between all his conclusions to Mr. Van
Buren's prejudice, and the character of the
President with his present friends and the peo
ple, but according to his own conceptions of
that character before the President had the
misfortune to think that Ihe Senator and his
friends were pursuing a policy dangerous to
the union of the States. He was, as descnoea
by the Senator, all that was good and great,
and performed with the purest patriotism, more
important services than any man since the days
of Washington. His known firmness has been
" .
called obstinate self-will, by his adversaries,
and he has been held up by his enemies as a
roaring lion, requiring implicit obedience from
all who ventured to approach his den. lake
the good or the bad of this description. Judge
this matter by the opinion of the President's
friends, by the Senator's, or by the President's
enemies, and the part allotted to Mr. van Bu
ren could not have been plaved here. What,
Sir, this pure patriot, this great public bene
factor, this self-willed, obstinate man, this roar-
inff lion, to be a wet rag in any man's hands ;
a nose of wax to be pinched into any and eve
ry shape by Mr. Van Buren's fingers! 11 the
Senator will calmly reflect, he will be compel
led to acknowledge that he is or has been great
ly mistaken. The President is not what he
declared him to be what his friends or his
enemies believe him to be, or else flagarant
injustice has been done to Mr. Van Buren. I
will not quarrel with the Senator's choice. He
may take either branch of the alternative. He
cannot hold both.
The formidable array of facts in support of
his charge of corrupt management against Mr.
Van Buren, reminds me of an occurrence said to
have happened in France. There is it sefcms
such a thing as an action to recover damages
for seduction, which may be brought by an
unfortunate lady who has listened too credul
ously to a flattering tongue. A pretty lady
who had' quaralled and parted with her lover
called on an advocate to bring a suit for the
damages she had sustained. She described the
origin and progress of the liason, the happiness
enjoyed while it lasted, and the time of its dura
tion, and then its fatal end. The advocate listened
withprofoundattention to thcstory,?&, saw jthnt
it was one of those cases in which it was difficult
to say who was in fault, the gentleman or the lady,
and that an action could not be maintained for se
duction. How to convey this, without offending
the fair oho was the difficulty. All Frenchmen,
of all professions, avoid that as the deadliest of
sins. The advocate managed it with the prover
bial skill of hie profession and of his country.
Madam, it would give me infinite pleasure to
obey your wishes and punish" the ihgrato
who has separated himself from so much
beauty; but I am obliged to tell you that
the facts are not sufficient to support an action.
This . seemed very strange to the lady, as she
had been very minute in her detail of all the
facts. Pouting and petulant she left the advo
cate to his books and briefs. .The whole affair
was forgotten by him; but in the course of a
few days the lady burst triupmhantly into his
room, exclaiming with joyful eagerness, another
fact, he seduced me again this morning. ; And
so it is with the feenator. His lacts, like the
lady's, do not go to the point he must reach to
effect his purpose. Each one is like unto the
other, and all like the seduction of that morning.

was so doubtful whether it were best, to act
by a law, or by negotiation, that it was indif

In answer to these, there appeared the fol
lowing note, appended to a speech of Mr.
Clay, and published in the Intelligencer of the
9th instant:
" There is a statement in the published
" speech of Gen. Smith, which if he made it in
" the Senate, did not attract mv attention.
" He says he asked me whether the terms pro
posed bv the British act of Parliament of
"July, 182&, were satisfactory; and that I
" said I considered they were all wc could
" 4 ask.' Now, I am perfectly confident that
the Senator's recollection is inaccurate, and
" that I never did say to him that the terms
" proposed by the act were all we could ask.
" It is impossible I should have said so. ' For,
" colonial (and of course the United States) to
" its privileges, those Powers arc required to
" place the commerce and navigation of Great
" Britain (European as well as colonial) upon
" the footing of the most favored nation. That
" is, if we had accepted the terms as tendered
" on the face of the act, wc would have allowed

"been at liberty to import into the United
otates, on an equal looting with our own,
the productions oi any part of the globe,,
without a corresponding privilege on the part
4 of our vessels, in the ports of Great Britain.
It is true that the King in Council was autho-
" rized to dispense with some of the conditions
" of the act, in behalf of Powers not possesing
'colonies. But whether the condition, eni-
" bracing the principle of the most favored na
tion, would have been dispensed with or not,
" was unknown to me at the time the Senator
" states the conversation to have happened.

All my papers being in Baltimore, it has not
been in my power to ascertain whether I have
preserved the note alluded to, and the purport
or " effect" of which, I had undertaken to give
from memory. I therefore addressed a note
to Mr. Cambrbleng, who was a member of the
Committee of Commerce in the House of Repre

nau uttu any cuiiiniunication eitner vernal or

following is his answer, which, as it appears to
me, clearly, fully, and substantially sustains the
statements made bv me. from recollection:
'
Washington, 11 Feb. 1 832. J
Dear Sir: I have your note of this date in
quiring whether I had any written communica
tion with Mr. Clay, when Secretary of State,
on the subject of the act of parliament of July,
1825.
After the passage of that act, the Comptroller
of the Customs of Hallifax, Nova Scota, con
strued its provisions as applicable to vessels of
the United States in that trade, and I had oc
casion to call Mr. Clay's attention to that fact.
That construction was afterwards overruled,
by an order of the Colonial Government of the
23d of January, 1826. Having brought the
act of Parliament to the consideration of Mr.
Clay, I suggested the propriety of reciproca
ting its provisions, in order to prevent the inter
diction of our commerce with the British West
Indies. I stated to him my intention of mo ving
a resolution upon the subject, unless it should
interefere with some arrangement of Govern
ment. I understood Mr. Clay as assenting to
the property and necessity of adopting some
curuwi measure, ana as expressing a desire
