V’skantoioR, May S, 1824.
Dus Gbvkbai,:—Mr. Lo vrie has again made
his appearance in the Intelligencer, and endea
vers to prove his charge in relation to the letter,
;aid to have been written by you, to the President
x read by thePresident to him The President, on
a former occasion, int’orlhed tne he had never read
such a letter to Mr Lowrie; A Mr. Findlay, who U
-aid to have beentatthe time, present,has stated to
that no such letter was ever r/ad to him, Hav.
Ing communicated io the editor of the Democratic
fresa the information I bad received, t was ted to
' elieve that we would hear. n ° toore of this letter,
Subsequent events, however, shew that I w s mis
taken, Mr. Lowrie, in his publication, says, spea
king of the letter, “why does Mr Hay adopt the
»xpression used in the newspapers, rather than
: n my letter, vis i two federalists and two demo
crats f" By this, he evidently intended to convey
thfe opinion, that he, Mr Lowrie, had not made
use of thi» expression. This, in fact. Was the
charge made—Hifs wot the question put by me to
the President, and to this question was his answer
given, and which Mr. Lowrie did tell me,on more
than one occasion, that he would prove. Although
1 am perfectly clear in my opinion, that neither
folly nor wickedness can.be a sufficient -eauon to
ransack bureaus, and drag forth the private cor
respondents of aoy man, yet, inasmuch us I have
been frequently called upon, by my constituents,
for Informs ion in relation id this letter, and feel.
respectfully usk y
order that the public may be correctly informed,
to communicate to me whether ydu eVer did write
such letter or not.
Accept the aftuiraftce of thy high consideration
and regard.
very respectfully, your fellow citizen,
G. gREMEB.
Gen. Ardrs w Jxrxsnv,
City of IVuatiington.
Dzab 8ia t-r-l have received your letter ofyes-
terdav; and with much cheerRilriess and candor,
shall apply to Rbur inquiry.
It has been repeatedly pressed before the pub
lic, that I had written a letter to Mr. Monroe, re
commending him to select for his cabinet, *‘two
distinguished republicans and to distinguished fe
deralists;" and that to Mr Lowrie and Mr Find,
lay; Senators froth the state of Pennsylvania the
letter had been read. I have mt been able to
persuade myself, that the fact was so, inasmuch as
our correspondence was private and confidential
—because Mr Findlay, who was present, has no
recollection of it—because no such letter was ever
written by me—and, because the President de
nies that he read any such letter, or, indeed, any
letter at all* ! regret that Mr. Lowrie, in pre
sentirig this matter, should not recollect one mu
ferial circumstance. When tint it was spoken of,
his stated to me, and to others, that a letter pur.
porting, ahd declared, to be mine, had been read
to himself and Mr. Findlay, by the President,
which advised that his Cabinet should be form,
ed of “two distinguished republicans and two
distinguished federalists."
My reply to him was, that no such letter had
ever been written by me; that -,o far as I could
recollect, only one person, Col, Drayton, of South
Carolina, had been recommended to him; that I
had suggested to the President the. propriety of
appointing him Secretary of War; tor the reason
that be was a man of high and honorable feelings,
honesi, virtuous, and of energetic character. Per
sonally, I knew not Col. Dfayton; but, from infor
(nation of his general character, felt satisfied he
could do blare to correct the feuds Which unhap
pily prevailed in the urmy, than any other man ot
whom 1 had any knowledge* The confenta ot
my letter, as rpad to him by the President, that
two distinguished federalists, and two distinguish
ed republicans, should be selected, was not only
stated by Mr. Lowrie to me; but to yourse'f, and
to Mr, Eaton, of the Senate, and to others.
He has changed; however, his ground, and now
says, it was a recommendation to the President,
to form his Cabinet from the two great leading
parties of the country. Both statements are alike
unfounded; no such letter was ever written by
ihe j on the contfary; cr.y advice to the President
was; that, in the selection of his Qabinet.he should
act upbti principles like these; consider himself
the bead of the nation, not of a party; that he
should have around him the best talents the coun
try could afford; without regard to sectional divi
sions; and should; in his selection; seek after men
of probity, virtue, capacity, and firmness; ahd; in
this Way, he wobld go far to eradicate those feel
ings, which; on former occasions, threw So many
obstacles in the Way of Government; and be eua
bled, perhaps; to uilite a people heretofore politi.
cally divided. I gave it as my opinion, that the
best evidence of devotion to the government, its
constitution and laws, which any could afford,
was, When these were assailed, to venture forth in
names were mere bubbles; and In who would, as
Col Drayton had done, abandon his fire side and
the comforts of home, and continue In the defence
and protection of his country, through the war,
merited the bonfidtnee of the government, let
him bear what nartie of party be might; such a
man I did recommend to Mr. Monroe; he was
bne t had never seen; yet one whose conduct,
character, and good qualities; entitled him to any
and every confluence.. As well migh. the conclu
sion be adduced, (hat t bad recommended a selec
tion exclusively from one or the other of the par,
ties, as that the cabinet, from a motive of polity
should be kept equally poised, by appointing
two of each, fob my advice was, to scleot men of
probity, virtue,- ahd talents, without regard to
parly.
Ihe voice of Washington, in bia tare we) I ad-
dfess to the nation, was, that party animosity was
not to be encouraged, because u It was calculated
to distract the public councils; and emkeble the
public administration j” and, with hi ., the voice
of every patriot will accord. Virtue being the
main pillar of a Republican Government, unless
virtuous men shall be drawn into its admlnistra-
tion, the fabric butt tremble. Designing and
corrupt men may cover their intrigues under a
pretended love for virtue and patriotism; but a
truly pure man will be without disgui-e; verifying,
as he passesyklong, the old adage; that the tree is
best knoWn by its fruit, .
My letters have, by tne President, and tIRith my
consent, been placed in the hands of a mutual
friend, Mr Eaton, with permission to publish them
whenever he pleases to do so. I care not « hen it
My opinions and sentiments, such as they h
been written, or expressed at any time, each and
every one are at all times welcome to In public
or in private letters* 1 but breathe the sentiments
I feel, and which by judgment sanctions; and no
disposition will ever be entertained by me, either
to di'.guiie or to suppress them.
I am, very respectfully, yotir most obedient
servant,

** question on striking out ail of the propria
Eighteenth Congress
’ .Mays.
. IN SENATE.
Several bills from the othor House were
reported by Standing Committees, of the
Senate.
Mr B rtjonr submitted the following res-
olutionn, which were read, and laid over for
considetarion: !
“ Resolvcd t That — ■ -r"»’ thousand cop-'
tea of the act, entitled “ An act to amend
the several acts for imposing duties on im
ports," which passed the House of Repre
sentatives, April 19th* 1824, be printed, and
the Secretary of the Treasury is hereby au N
ihonscd and directed to cause them to be
distributed, by directing a part thereof to
be sent oeveiy Post Office in the United
States; and it shall be the duty of each
Postmaster receiving the same to place
them in the hands of the People.
“ Reiotved, That the Secretary of the
Treasury mike a report to the Senate, at
the next session, as to the probable effect
of this bill on the revenue of the country
—on the shipping, manufacturing, com-
mercial, and agriculturul interests; that he
report,in particular, on the state ofthe iron
factories, and, as far as practicable, what has
caused their failure where they have failed,
and their success where they have succeed
ed, and what duty is necessary to bring
Jliem into successful competition with fore
ign iron : That he report, also, on the con-
ditibn of the. woollen, cotton, and coarse
linnen factories, how far their establisment
has contributed to influence the price oh
their manufactures, the amount of the re
venue, or the interests bf the U. States;
what encouragement they need; if any, how
shall it be applied; That he report, also, on
the stitte of the culture of hemp and why it
hiii, oh this article, but ttauf&t, if any <$utv
was to bo imposed, it obglit to be an. ad
valorem duty; as the great difference in tl>
prite and quality of this article, would r» i
der asdecincduty vory unequal in its opera
lion.
Mr. Elliott called for a division, of tire
question; and'the chair declared' the ques
tion to be first upon striking out the pro
posed duty on unmanufccli.r- <! wool.
Mr. Smith then withdrew his motion t«
insert a specific duty of eight cents fier
jfiound, ,fpid the question then remained up
on striking obi.
Mi Mills said he whs perfectly willing
to-vote for a Reasonable duty on the impbr
ration of wool, but not so high a duty as
the highest progressive duties proposed in
this bill He, therefore, moved to amend
the bill by striking out so much as proposes
the prospective inrrease of the duty on
wool, over twenty Jive fier tentum ad va
lorem The question was then put updn
this amendment, and decided in the nega
ive, Yeas 21, Nays 26.
$o the Senate refused to adopt the amend
meht proposing to limit the duty on wool to
ttoenty five fier cent.
•Mr. Elliott then withdrew his proposition
to divide the question, which proposition
would have made it necessary to put the
ing confident that no motive can exist with you -is that it hah not been used in the Navy of
for withholding the conUntoof any letter you the U State*; That He also report, if pro
ever wrote,.! therefore respectfully ask jmu, in tection u to be given lQ particular industry.
whether it Orould not be more politic to
give bounties than to lay duties.
“That he also report such, information
as he may possess a? to evasions of the re
venue laws Ijy smugglers; and, finally, that
he furnish, in his report, whatever informa
tion he may, esteem pertinent'to any and
every part ofthe bill."
Mr Burboiir briefly explained his objects,
in the introduction of these resolutions, and
Messrs, Lloyd, of Matylatid, Talbot, and
Findlay, made a Few cursory remarks fn
opposition to them. The resolutions were
ordered to be printed.

King, Alabama, io the chair. >,■■
Tire question was upon amending the
bill, in pursuance of the motion which Mr*
Smith submitted yesterday, to strike out
the clause imposing a dul^ on unmanu-
factured wool. ,.|§
Mr. Barbour moved that the bill be post
poned to, and made the order of - the day
for, to mrirtow. His reasons were, that
me of the numerous private biffs, now
before the Senate, should be taken up, and
that he might have the opportunity-of ex
plaining his views, to morrow, on the reso
lutions he ffad ‘ submitted this morning,
which have relation to this subject* The

was put on this amendment, and decided
in the affirmative, Y. as 25, Nays 22-

a short discussion, in which Messrs. Smith,
Lloyd, of Mass Dickerson, Talbot, Lowi ie,
and Benton, engaged.
Mr. Dickerson moved to amend the a-
mendment, by striking »ut “25 per centum”
and inserting >‘3o per centum.” This wa
