betray their poverty, like the fine ladies iu
tin* \ .car of Wakefield, by their outrage
ous attempts to he vety genteel. The first
thing that struck mo in these documents
was, how wonderfully those Spaniards must
have improved in English in llieir short re
sidence in the United States It reminded
me of a remark in <»0e. of Hoult’s novels, in
the part about old Eispctli of the Ciaigburn-
loot ; “ Aye,” say s old Kdie, “ she s a well
educate woman; and an’ she win to her
English,as I hac heard her do nt an orra
time, she may come to fickle us a*.” These
Spaniards have gat to their English, and vve
are all tickled. But I shall he told-•-not as I
have been told—hut as I am prepared to be
t dd, bei atjse I bavck. pt this lung |.m ked up
here tobring R out here in this Senate,Ishall
he told that these English letters wcretinnslu-
timid from the Spanish, made in the office
of the Secretory of State. 1 hope not--l
should he sorry to see any such tokens of
allinity, and consanguinity, and good ut«der-
standnvg ; Imt they have the loot-prints nnd
the llesli marks of the style of that office,
na I shall show on a future occasion. 1
cannot show it now-- it would he unreason
able—hut show it I will, nnd in a manner
that shall satisfy any hopest jury on the
South aide of the Ohio, and on tho South
side of Mason amt Dickson h hue
any honest jury—nnd I will bring the pre
sumption so strong, thnt ho must possess
more than Christian charity (which cover-
etli all things) who will deny that there ex
ists strong presumptive evidence—and sir,
against the honor of a man, as against the
honor of a lady, strong presumptive evi
dence is a fital thing—it is always fatal
when that presumptive evidence cannot he
cleared up and done away. Do you read
the lott ib of these South American mis
sionaries over again, and compare them with
tlio tone of the messages and letters which
vve have received—put them in columns
one against the other, and mark the simili
tude. My Auspicious temper may have car
ried me too far—if it has, I beg pardon—
hut I will shew enough—not a handker
chief—not to justify the jealousy of Othello
—-yet 1 believe that the jealousy might
have been pardoned to the noble Moor,
certainly hy uie. had ho not been a black
man ; hut the idea to me is so revolting n*
that connexion, that I never can read that
play with any sort of pleasure--see it ac
ted I never could.
Now, sir, John CViinry Adams coining
into power under these, inauspicious circuin
stances, and with those suspicions allies
and connexions, has determined to become
the apostle of liberty, of universaf Jihcrty.
as his father was, about the time of tlm for
(nation of tin* Constitution, known to be
the apostle of monarchy. It i* no secret—
1 was in New York when lie first took his
scat as vice President I recollect—For J
was a school hay at the time, attending th*»
lobby of Cotigiess, when I ought to have
been at school—I remember the manner in
which my brother was spurned by the
coachman of tho then Vice President, for
coining too near the arms blazoned on the
scutcheon of the Vire-R -gal carriage.——
