J. N. Campbell, then of lhat place, now of 'Albany New York, was among the invited guests. The circumstances were these: 31r. Campbell, who had resided in the city for some years previous to General Jackson's inauguration was the Pastor of a Church, and such was his reputation that the President and three members of his Cabinet, viz: Mr. ' fnnhamJ Judfre Berrien and mverlf tank pew and became' regular attendants at his church. In the course of his ministry, he formqd an acquaintance with my fam ily, andj occasionally visited them., lie happened there, while my friend Hill ami. his family were with us, contracted an acquuintancc with them, and when the party above alluded to was given, my daughters invited him. He attended and took the liberty of carrying with him, his friend Doctor Lly of Philadelphia, who had just arrived. 1 knew no more of his be ing invited than of auy other person who happened to be present. He was, how ever, noi the less welcome on that ac- . count, nor was his friend Doctor Ely. Neither pf these men require arecemmen- 1 ulation where they reside. Mr. Campbell r known to be a learned, nious and niott !.. eloquent divine. Some fchort time after the party, I heard, very much to my r-ur? prise, that Major Eaton and some of his partizans were enraged with me, and threatened my destruction because Mr. Campbell and Doctor lily were at my house as above stated. 1 could scarcelv .credit the report, "autil it was mentioned to mc by the President, when I empiric ally asked him, who questioned tny right to invite whom I pleased to my hou?e. He testily observed, no person, but as there was some misunderstanding be tween Major Eaton, 31 rs. E. and Mr. . Campbell; i that he, Mrjor Eaton thought it evinced hostility to him. At the interview above alluded, to between Major Eaton Judge Berrien, Major Barry and myself. Major Enton mentioned the circumMnn cesof Mr. Campbell and Doctor Ely be-" ing at my house on the occasion referred to.
