iniiiiary, of the port; which, hy the
h}e, is nothing; more tba-, a small
ni“he st the rocks, where poods
can be landed, there bring not (be
least shelter for shipping. Here
we lay six weeks, rolling the lower
deck ports in, ard. hut for the live
ly vivacity of the givls* who came
upon mules from the city to visit us,
I know not what we should have
done. The coast presents the most
rugged and barren prospect I ever
saw; but nothing can exceed the
fertility oT the interior. Many of
the todies who came to see us*nan
never before seen the ocean*—much
less a vessel. But the grandeur of
tlie ship was represented in such
glowing colors, that ladies of more
than sixty years of age performed
the journey to the coast, doling
which it is necessary to pass from
extreme heat to exit erne cold.
Their feeli* gs of admiration and
surprise he described, Mrs,
Stewart was called the Anglo-Ame

and could play on all instruments.

The lion. William Darlington,
lute member of Congress from this
district, the intimate and confiden
tial fne n d of Mr. Calhoun, since his
return frotn Washington, in cunver-
ion with several gentlemen, iias,
we understand, suggested:
That Mr. Calhoun was yet com
paratively a young man; that Mr.
vdanis wis considerably older; that
M" Adams would not probably,
hob! a situation in the government
under Me, Calhoun, be being so
much younger than Mr. A.; that
therefore, in the event of the election
•>t* Me. Calhoun, at this time, the
distinguished abilities of Mr Adams
would lie lost to the milieu; but
that, if Mr. Adams should be elect
ed, Mr. Calhoun would have no ob
jection take the office of Sec re
‘arv of State under him, and at the
end of sight years Mr. Calhoun
might take Mr. Ad ms* place.

he the substance of them; and from
the high authority from which these
suggestions owe, snob we have rea

COM VI IT NIC ATI ON.
IVcat Chester, Penn JiduS, 1823,
Mr. JVokybll: The Editoi of
the Village Record, of (tils place,
has (bought proper to state, as up
on my authority, in his paper of
this m -ruing, that the friends of
Mr. Adams .cud Mr. f allioun have
agreed to form a “Coalition.” upon
the basis that “if Mr. Adams should
be elected President, Mr, Calhoun
would have no objection to take the
office of Secretary of S’ate under
him; and at (be end d*eight years,
Mr. Calhoun might take his place 5?
t hat bah tor also ventures to draw
the conclusion, upon the same
grounds, that such -was the course
of policy agreed upon at Washing
ton, to be pu sued by the friends of
those distinguished men ” To give,
us I suppose, a more imposing air
to Use story, he remarks that I am
the “intimate & confidential friend”
of Mr, Calhoun; and thence it is
inferred (hat the statement may be
considered as u heotic A more
pitdul misrepresentation, or a more
unwarrantable reference, lias sel
dom, perhaps, been resorted to;
and I deem it my duty, in justice
to all concerned, including myself,
to hasten to “correct the procedure;”
which I beg you will permit me to
do to your paper at un early day, in
asmuch as the republican newspa
per here is published but once a
week, and will uot appear again
until next Wednesday. Why the
Editor of the Record should have
presumed to make *ueh a statement,
in my name, without first endeavor
ing to ascertain its correctness at
the proper source, I have not been
aide to learn, nor can 1 compre
hend. upon fair principles. The
facts are, that whet I returned fr>rn
Washington, 1 met with a number
of my acquaintances, and. a§ is the
of the place, we had a free
and familiar conversation on politi
cal subjects in general, and, among
others* on the approaching presi- ;
denliai election. I mentioned, that !
some gentlemen, who, however;
were the advocates of other candi
dates, had objected to Mr
on the present occasion, inasmuch
as he was younger Rian his compet
itors; and that the nation ought to
have the benefit of his services, for !
another presidential term, in seme ,
subordinate department, with other j
similar reasons: But that I ever in- j
timated that bit friends had agreed, ‘
or offered to agree, to waive his
pretensions on the ground sta'ed,
or any other ground, except the
will of the people,’ or that I ever
said any thing to that effect, is a I
position utterly destitute of truth,
None of his friends ever spoke of;
such a thing, in my hearing: and it
is preposterous, in the extreme, to
reler to me for evidence of the ex- i
istenee of a “coalition,” or any
“course of policy agreed up. n at
Washing on,” or elsewhere. I ha\e •
no knowledge of any such measure. 1
