of the members as to the expediency of passing
Upon those resolutions in their legislative capacity.
«The resolutions (says:the Enquirer,) were lost
77 to 76—But we are persuaded, that out of these
77,about 45 are in favor of Wm H. Crawford, per
haps more. All the gentlemen who spoke against
adopting such resolutions in their legislative char.
octer are republicans, except one—and we under-
*tand that at least two of these are io favor of Mr
Crawford. He has besides se'eral other republi.

ju'o from 30 to 40 federalists in the house, all of
whom with the exception of one or two voted
against the resolutions—and most of these, it is
understood, are friendly to Mr. Crawford. Fifty
nine members were absent, almost all of whom
hod visited tbeir homes at Christmas. Of these
it is understood, that a large majority are also
friendly to Mr; Crawford.

WILLIAM H. CRAWFORD.
Several months ago—when the election
for Governor was pending and we were
anxious to do “one thing at a time," so as
not to jeopardize the election of the Demo,
cratic Candidate by entering upon the Pre
sidential question—we mentioned that we
hud in our possession two letters from Ge
neral Abner Lacock which contained matter
proper for public information. Those let*
ters we this day publish. It may not be
mproper to recall to the public recoiled
lion that in 1816, there was, in Pennsytva
nia a decided predilection for Mr. Monroe
as tjie next President, and much apprehen
sion was then entertained, tfiRt the popula
rity of Mr Crawford in Congress, would sc-
cure the nomination in Caucus ot that gen
tleman, in preference to Mr. Monroe. Sa
tisfied as I was of the claims and merits ot
Mr. Monroe and of the wishes of the De
mocratic party of Pennsylvania, I did all in
my power, by publications in the Demo
cratic Press, and by private letters, to se
cure his- nomination in Caucus. It was in
the cotivse of this correspondence that I
received the following letters. They exhi
bit some important facts which it is now
deemed an act of justice to submit* to the
public.
I. They prove that there were 60 many
persons at that time in Congress who pVc
ferred Mr. Crawford to Mr. Monroe, that
nothing but a positive refusal on the part
of Mr. Crawford to be a candidate secured
the nomination and election of Mr Monroe,
and thus preserved the Union and Harmo
ny of the Democratic party of the United
States.
II. They evince, beyond cavil or dispute
the sincere friendship, of Mr. Crawford for
Mr. Monroe, and hisextreme anxiety to se
cure his nomination even in preference to
that ot himself.
III. They demonstrate Mr. Crawford’s
devotion to the Union of the democratic
party, rather than his own aggrandizement
Had he, like Aaron Burr or De Wilt Clin
ton, listened to the voice of Ambition rath
er that) that of Principle, he would have sc
cured his own nomination and probably his
Election to tho Chief Magistracy of the
Union. How far a knowledge of these
facts may have provoked tho enmity of the
Federal party, or how far they entitle Mr
Crawford, at this time, to the suffrages of
the Democratic Party, are points tvhiah
they, and they alone, should, and are to, de
termine.—Dem Press.
Washington, 7th Feb. 1816.
Dear Sir,—In my last I gave.you the some
hints on the subject of the next Presidency
1 have since made some discoveries, which
you have as follows.
The friends of Governor Tompkins
the New York Delegation have given up
all hopes of his success, I apprehend, and
will very generally go for Crawford, whose
friends are already numerous and respecta
ble, and there is nothing now necessary but
to secure the approbation of Crawford and
his consent to oppose Monroe, to make
our distraction complete, 'and to sow the
seeds of lasting discord in the republican
ranks. I have for some time past felt al
armed at the prospect. I have or, think I
have, discovered members of the same po
litical household looking at each other with
jealousy and suspicion already;—hut a civ
cumstance has very recently taken place
thtA has in a great measure removed my
tears, as to Crawford. You have already
seen in the papers the publication of Doc
tor Bibb; a suspicion, however, struck me
that it was possible although Crawford had
authorized the Doctor to say he was no
candidate, yet the love ol power pnd pros
peet of sure success might have induced
him to have privately countenanced the use
of his name as Fr^sidont.
Yesterday I suggested my Icars to Gover-
nor Barbour and Mr. Roberts; they app.ear
cd of the same opinion. I told them the
fact must be ascertained, and ii they approv
ed of the step! would go and converse with
Crawford myself, freely and frankly. Tfiey
approved, and I next consulted Dr. Bibb,
the personal and bosom friend of Crawford,
but the political friend of Monroe; he said
—‘‘go pnd see Crawford, he is too honest
“to use duplicity, and will convince you of
“his sincerity.” Thus advised, I this morn
ing called on Crawfofd, and the following
dialogue took place as near as I can recol
lect, and being prepared for the interview I
cannot be much mistaken.
Lacock. “I have called upon you this
morning, on a subject of some’ delicacy as
it respects yourself, and of much interest to
the republican party. I haye sought this
interview with a desire to converse with you
openly and freely in the spirit of republican
candour on the subject of the Presidential
election.”
Crawford. Ml am glad you have called.
I shaft converse ip the spirit you desire and
without concealment,”
Lacock. “Although it is understood you
have authorised your friend Dr. Bibb to de
clare you are no candidate, ^yet in the face
of those declarations your friends, or pre
tended friends, are still with zeal pressing
you forward for that situation and declaring
your willingness to serve if elected. The
conduct:of those who pretend to be your
friends, can but excite suspicions unfavora-

Crawford. “I am aware there are ground 1
lor suspicion. When I first heard of my
name being thought of or mentioned, I told
my friend Dr. Bibb to put a stop to the ru
mour ; to assure every man that asked him,
or With whom ho conversed, that I was not
a candidate. I never designed that this
should appear in the papers. (lid think
that this declaration, made in tho*sincerity
of my heart, would have been sufficient, to
have satisfied my friends and put a stop to
the business, and I still think if there had
been no other motive than friendship for me,
it would havo had the effect, I regret it has

larmonized by bursts of patriotic music
from the Band of the Marine Corps.
Among the visitors were aft the Score

ment, ' aft the Commissioners of the Navy
Board, and the Chiefs of the several branch
harmony. I am a friend to Monroe, but
not less yonr friend, and these arc the feel
ings ol every man who advocates his claim*
You may be the President of the United
States when Monroe is in his grave—Itis
experience gives him stronger claims than
you : he fought and bled in the revolution.
Many Pennsylvanians still remember that
he languffbed for months at the house of
Mr. Wlncoop in Bucks or Montgomery
county, in consequence of wounds ho 9-
ccivcd in Jersey. These things ought not
to be forgotten ; he is the last of our revo
lutionary worthies who have claims that
will entitle them to this distinction; let us
not withhold this grateful tribute of esteem
from Monroe, when no other objection can
be urged against him, but the cause of his
having been born in Virginia ; were he of
any other state, he would not be troubled
with a competitor.
Crawford “That is true, and acknow
lodged by aft. If Monroe belonged to any
other state in the Union, there would be
no other republican candidate spoken of*—
and as to the just claims of Mr. Monroe, I
feel the obligation as strong as any man,
and have urged them on aft occasions; par
ticularly to some personal friends from
Georgia in Congress. Threo of them I have
lately seen, and told them expressly and
withoot reserve, that I was no candidate ; I
have done more—yesterday Gen. Root from
New York called on me, after some pre
hminary observations, ho asked roe “It I
would authorize him to say I would serve
if elected.” I told him I would not.”
I shaft send you the residue perhaps to
morrow (the mail closes.) Adieu, &c.
John Binms, Esq. A LACOCK.
Dear Sir,—Yours of the 7th has been
this moment received, and you will see that
the zeal you recommended has been antici
pated by the republicans. The party will
not divide. I think we shall, have but one
republican candidate lor the Pi esidency
how unjust were our suspicions of the hon
esty of Crawford; he is indeed pure gold
Now for the balance of the dialogue. ]
think I left off where Gen. Root, Minister
Plenipotentiary from New York, said to
Crawford, “will you authorize me to say
irou are willing to servo if elected?’ Craw
ford answered, “I will not.” “I have (con
tinued he) already authorized my friend
Dr. Bibb to say I was not a candidate; can
you expect I should make myself so ridi
culous as to say now, that lam? I cannot
be expected to act with such duplicity. I
have not changed my opinion. What
told Dr. Bibb I tell you, I am no candidate
for the Presidency”—Gon. Root then said
he did not oppose Mr. Monroe nor ask him
(Crawford) to serve in opposition, because
he had any objection to Mr. Monroe
hut purely to preserve the republican as
c>-ndancy in New York, which he was con
vinced would bo overthrown if another
President was taken hom Virginia:—“Yes
added he, the republicans of New York,
fear, can render no aid in the election of
Virginia President.’
Here Col. Johnson of Ky. came in and
interrupted our conversation for a few min
utes. After he had left us, Mr Crawford
added, “after some further conversation
with Gen. Root, he left me I hope satisfied
that it was in vain to press me any further
bn that subject. Such has been my con
duct to each, and every man, who has spo
ken to me on the occasion. What can I do
further except it be to see such of my friends
as soon as possible, in whom I can confide,
and instruct them to forbear the use of my
name; this I will do, and prevent as far as
possible my being made an instrument to
distract and divide the.party.” He added
in conclusion, that he never could fora mo
ment reconcile it with his feelings to oppose
Mr Monroe for the Presidency.
“There are other reasons,” said he, “be
side those we have mentioned. Mr. Mon
roe has been my sincere and intimate friend
since our first acquaintance; the manner of
my being brought into the Cabinet, the ef
fect on that body, if both were candidates,
indeed every principle of honor, justice and
propriety, forbid me,if I can help it, allow
ing my name to be mentioned in opposition
to him.”
At the close of our conversation I asked
Crawford, if I was to consider myself at lib
erty to make use of his declarations on the
subject;—he answered he had nothing to
conceal, I might make what use I pleased
ol his observations. I know I have pre
served the substance, and I think pretty
literally, given you the conversation between
myseli and Crawford. Has he hot acquitted
himself with honor? The .result of this
interview I have communicated to Mr Rob
erts, Mr. Barbour, Mr.Johnson, Dr. Bibb,
the two Mr Clays, Thomas and William
Wilson, Samuel D. Ingham, and others,
They aft admire the honorable disinterest
edness of Crawford—and feel satisfied that
with such men as him and Monroe, the re
public has every thing to expect and no
thing to fear.
