Extract if a letter from Mr. Forsyth to the Secretary of Stale, dated Madrid, May 20, 1622. “The King and royal family Went dowqrto Aran- uez, shortly after the meeting of the Cortes; the dip- omatic buoy made tbe ordinary complimentary visit on the Queen’s day, and it-was understood among us, that we were to pay no more visits until the anniver sary of the King's entrance into Madrid, on his return from France^, on the 13lh of tills mouth, and St. Fer dinand’s doy, the 30th. Notes were written by the Secretory of State, on the 4th of April, inviting us to be present at the lime of the delivery of the wife of Don Carlos; (a copy of that fo me is enclosed, No. 1.) 1 had determined not to go; but a second note, on the 30tli, (copy, No. 2.) and the knowledge that nil tile n- thcr ministers had gone down to Aranjucz, induded inc )O' change this determination, being unwilling, es pecially at this juncture, to give any room, for com plaint, from a failure to comply with the Customs of tbe court. I went to Aranjucz onthc 5th instant. On the-7th, I received a note, (copy marked No. 3.) to attend at the expected delivery of Don Francisco's wife. ■- The wifo of Don Francisco gave birth, on the 13th instant, to « prince. Although I had been so long ot Aranjuez, I received no notice to attend, when the event took place. Under ordinary circum stances, I should have taken itfor granted that the o- mission was accidental; but, in the present state of the relations of^painnnd thn United States, I thought Jt necessary to ascertain that it was not an intended - Might. I wrote, therefore, on the 13th, a note to M. J ~ '* Rosa, (copy, No. 4.) to which I received a sa- tory reply, (cony, No. 5.). ‘ On the 16th, the o- princess was delivered of a second son.

To the editor of the Lancaster Journal— THE Cincinnati Advertiser was last night placed in my hands by a' friend, containing am- address from'Gen. Jackson to the public, dat- . cd on the IStli ult. in which ho has announc ed • mo to bo the Member of Congress'with whom ho had conferred in his lottor to Mr. Beverley, of the 5th Juno last. Thtj *diny which I owe to tho public, and to m vs elf, now compels mo to polish to the wodd the only conversation which I ever held with Gen. Jackson, upon tho subject of tho last Presiden tial election, prior to its termination. In the month of December, 1824, a short time after the commencement of tho session of Congress, I heard, among other rumors then in circulation, that Gen. Jackson had deter- mined, should lie ho elected President, Jo con tinue Mr. Adams in the office of Secretary of State. Although I felt certain ho had never intimated such an intention, yet I was sensible that nothing could be bettor calculated both to cool tho ardor of his friends, and inspire hi. enemies with confidence, than the belief that he had already seloctcd his chiof competitor for tho highest office within Ids gift. I thought Gen. Jackson owed to' himself and to tlio cause in which his political friends wero engaged, coijtradict this report; and to declare that ho would not appoint to that office the man, how* evor worthy he might be, who stood at the head of tho most formidable party of his polit ical enemies. These boing my impressions, I addressed a letter to a confidential friend in , Pennsylvania, then and still.high in office, and exalted in character, and one who had ever been tho decided ndvocato of‘Gen, Jackson’s election,.requesting his opinion and advice Up on tho 'subject. I received his answer, dated 27th Dec. 1824, upon the 29th, which is now before me, and which sirongthoned and con firmed my previous opinion. I then finally determined, that I would either ask Gen. Jack- son myself, or get another of.his friends to ask him, whether lie had ever, declared.he would appoint Mr. Adams his socretary of state. In tjiis manner, I hoped a contradiction of tha report might b’o obtained from himself, and that ho might probably declaro it, was not his intention to appoint Mr. Adams. A short timo previous to the receipt- of tho letter to which I have reforre'd, my friend Mr* Markley and myself, got into convorsatioHr-az wo very often did, both before and after, Upon, the subject of the Presidential election, and concerning tho person who would probably bo selected by Gen. Jackson, to fill the office of secretary of state. I feci sincerely,sorry that I am compelled thus to introduce his name, but I do so with tho less reluctance, because it ■has already, without any agency of mine, found its way into the newspapers, in connection with tim» transaction. Mr. Nlarkloy adverted to die rumor which I have mentioned, and said it was calculated to injure tho Gen. He observed that Mr. Clay’s friends wero attached to him, and that ho thought they would endeavor to act it) con cert at tho election; that if. they did so, they could elect either Mr. Adams or Genlifal Jackson, at their pleasure; but that many^ of them would never agree to vote forj ter, if thev ^knew lie had predate prefer another to Mr. Clay, for j in his gifti end tliqf soots of the ! Mr. Adams bad already beHn lioldin idea, that, in case he were elect* might probably be offered tha Secretary of. State. I told Mr. Markley that I felt conftden General Jackson had never said' he wquli appoint Mr. Adams Sefretary of-State)' c Doo Francisco’# Wife. cause lie was not in the habit of conversing upon tho subject of the election; and if he' were, whatever might be his secret intention, lie bad more prudenco than' to make such a declaration. 1 mentioned to him thin I hail been thinking, either that I would call up , _ . . ... the General myself, ot get one of bis otn Navt.-Tbe foregoing !» tr »'; c friends to do so, and thus endeavor to obd , have been found among the manuscripts oi one ot me | * . at® dccceudant# of Jeremy Cockloft.
