By
Anotker False Statement of the Bruns
wick Herald.
Messrs. Editors The editor of the Bran-
wick Herald has, in an article headed •* An in-
iquitioos attempt to ruin Brunswick,” made
another fa'se statement. He states that Dr
Screven, in his letter to the citizens of South*
era and South-western Georgia, says: '• Savao.
nih by means of the Main Trunk charter, has
the power to run to Tboma3ville or Bainbridgei
or just where she pleases, atd no one can bind
er her.” The language of the address which
is thus perverted reads a s follows: “ It is for
yoursakes, fellow-citizens, as well as for onr
own, that we are urging upon yon this organi:
zation of the Main Trunk. So far as the Rait
road which we mpresent is conceerntd,
shall have bat little difficulty, We shall reach
the initial point without owiog a dollar, and
then we can move in any direciton we please-
We can pass into Florida, east of the Allapaha,
tapping both the Brunswick and Florida Rail
road, and the Central Railroad of Florida, or
we can ran through Troupville, or Thomasvilie
or to IJainbridge, Newton or Albany, or jo*t
where we please, and no one can hinder us.”
The Railroad which we represent is the Sa-
vanrah, Albany A Golf. The Main Trank not
being organized, we cannot represent it
The iniquitous attempt to ruio Brunswick is
attributed to Savannah. I cannot believe that
the citizens of Brunswick sympathise with the
editor of the Herald in the sentiments, to which
he has maliciously given utterance, concerning
Savannah.
The address of the Directors of the Savannah,
Albany and Gulf Railroad Company thus re
spectfully alludes to Brunswick. To Bruns*
wick, it (the Main Trunk) would be the reali*

At a special meeting of the Town Council of
Jacksonville, held this day, for the purpose of
taking into consideration the appeal of Aaron
DaCosta, late Marshal of said town, present,
His Honor F. J. Hoeg, Oak, Kipp, Ward and

Whereas, the private character of Aaron

Mr. Aaron DaCosta.
We have seen the card published by the
Mayor and Aldermen of Jacksonville, Fla.
It Is necessary for us to do justice to the gentle
man whose name has been introduced In so un
warrantable a manner in our our columns. The
report of the investigation of the burning of
the St. Johns, wa3 not the work of either of
the editora of our Paper, but of the reporter,
and had the offensive allusion to Mr. Dacosta
come under our notice, it should never have ap
peared in our columns. We regret sincerely the
injustice done to the gentleman, and hope that
he will be assuied, that his sorrow cannot be
greater than ours.
**A Sectional Contest.”
Onr Southern opponents seem terribly con
cerned at the idea of a sectional contest; for
the Presidency which they flatter themselves,
is to be prevented, (some how or other,) by the
candidaqr of Mr. Fillmore, and to be promot
ed, (some how or other) by the union of the
South upon Mr. Buchanan. We confess for
oorsleves, that we are utterly unable to com
prehend in what way the canvass Is made less
sectional by the running of Sir Fillmore. As
far as the black republicans are concerned, the
contest is purely sectional. They have deliber
< ately determined that, as regards themselves
this shail bo its character—a determination
which can only bo changed by the nomination
of the Fremont electoral tickets throughout the
South. But as things now stand, Fremont is
a candidate for the vote of only the Northern
States. He Is therefore a sectional candidate.
The contest therefore on the part of his friends,
arranged as they are both by their residence
and their principles against the South, in pure
ly sectional.
But the assertion that Buchanan is a section
al candidate is false, and only false. It is just
such a falsehood as Is in keeping with the ly
ing character of his Black Republican assail
ants. Buchanan a sectional candidate! To
what section is he opposed? The North ? He
la a himself a Northern man. To what section
are hi* supporters confined V We answer to no
section, East or West, North or South. There
if not n paltiy village In any State in the
Union which docs not number among its
nhabitants those .who will vote for him
Nor do bis principles bring hirn in antagonism
to any section. On tho contrary, they array
him and his friends against all sectionalism.
The motto inscribed upon his banner Non in
tervention by Congress with the Domestic insti
tutions either of the States or Territories, an
nounces a principle equally dear to all true
Republicans—be their homes North or South.
Under no other platform, can tho patriots of
alt sections come together to fight the common
enemy of them all.
Fillmore’s position in this regurd is peculiar.
By virtue of his principles, especially that of
hostility to the Kansas act, he is a candidate of
the North against the South. While, if we
look to the fact that though he has an electoral
ticket in all the slaveboldlng States, be has one
In but two of tho non-slaveholding States, we
would seem to be brought to the conclusion
that he Is the candidate of the South against
the North. But we aro willing to admit that
neither is he a sectional nominee—that, liko
im ‘
Aaron W. DuCosta from his office a3 Town Mar
sbal, the Town Council did not in any degree
intend or desire to cast any reflection upon his
character as a man, officer, or citizen.
Resolved, That tho. assertion made by the
editors of the Georgian & Journal, that Mr.
DaCosta was discharged from his position for
“Dishonesty” is untrue, as will be seen by re
ference to the annexed resolution of Council
removing bim.
Resolution of Council passed June 19th, 1656:
.“On motion it was unanimously resolved that
the Inteudant be requested to notify and inform
the present Marshal, Aaron W. DaCosta, Esq.,
that his services are no longer required by the
Council, and that he present his accounts before
the next regular meeting for settlement.”

To the Georgian and Journal .-
Messrs. Editors—Having authorized you to make
the statement you did, which has drawn out the
Jacksonville Councilmen. I will now submit to you
aa-1 the public, the facts upon which I did it. a
gentleman introduced himself to me, Just before I
was about to leave Jacksonville to rc-turn.horae,
whose name I do not recollect, and seeming to re
gret the disgraceful and cowardly manner in which
I bad been treated br DcCosta, told me that when
DeCo.sU was Marshal and Clerk of the Jacksonville
Corporation, a man had been employed by the
Council to co a specific price or work, which he did,
presented his bill, and it wa3 audited—that DeCos-
U afterwards saw him, and represented to him
that his hill had not been, and never could he au
dited-, but if he would take twenty dollars for it,
bo would give him that sum and take the chances—
that the man accepted the proposition, an-l that tho
villanous fraud wa3 subsequently accidentally dis
covered and expvscd, und DcCosta, in consequence
of it, tns removed from office. Allow me to ask n
question or two: 1st. DcCosta was removed—
Why? 2d. His house was searched—Why? He
must have done something wrong in the Urn place,
an* in the second place, It seems lie did not have
character enough to save him from suspicion.
Again, can he ho either on honorable or brave
tnan, who would cornu up behind u inau and hit
him a deadly blow, und then shelter himself under
the presence of a frightened family ? And when
tried in his own town, (not however by rny wish,)
by his neighbors und found guilty, ami fined fi.toeu
dollars, was so utterly contemptible in his spirit
and beggarly in his resources, that ho would not
from pride or principle, and could not be mado by
law, Vi piy the Huo. Part of this 1 know, tho bal
ance I have been informed, and all or it I believe to
bo true In Dd.oria’* ense. It will, perhaps, be pro
per to add, that the gentleman to whom I refer
above as my informant, was a member oftne Town
Council, an l wus acting ns Inteudent pro tern., when
DeCosta was removed.
DANIEL STEWART WILSON.
Mr. Clay being called lor vu introduced to
the aaembUge m in Old Line Whig, the son
of Henry CUy. He aid:
Laidts and Gentleman, fellow citizens of Ma
son Cwinly :
I present myself before you ou this occasion
under circumstances peculiar and extraordina
ry. A candidate for no office in the gilt of the
people, in bsd health, 1 have left iny home
and my occupation as an humble, plain farmer,
at the request or those in whose names I recog
nize old Whigs and Democrats, to come here
to day to cast in my mite and to strike one blow
for tnc Union. In all this vast assemblage
there are perhaps not more than a half dozen
persons who have ever seen me before, and nut
that number with whom 1 have the least per
sonal acquaintance. You have all or you, how
ever, heard my name; and all of you have heard
the vilest charges made against me, designed
and calculated to destroy whatever little influ
ence I might happen to possess as on individual,
and to take from me the confidence and respect
of my fellow men. I have been denounced as
false to the memory of my father, and as a ren
egade to bis principles.
Fellow-citizens, I was bora within a stone’s
throw of the capitol, in the rery boose in which
my father died. Educated tinder his care, the
sames shade of Ashland in which he had
so much delighted, and under which he had
some of his noblest inspirations, gave shelter to
me in my youthful days, I thank God that,
by my own exertions, 1 have been able to pre
serve that spot in his family. In my more
mature manhood 1 was the companion, the
partner, the trusted friend ol my lather. Thus
educated, to be a Whig became a part of my
nature. I am now a Whig; and 1 expect to
die a Whig, as 1 have lived.
Fellow-citizens, you have heard the charges
and calumnies against me. lam now before
you, face to face, and you can judge for your-
elves whether 1 have the countenance of a
.-false and insincere man. There • not one
drop of false blood coursing through my veins.
Numbers **f you here present are old enough
to remember the River Raisin, and that bloody
day, when all Kentucky was clothed iu mourn-
in. One of my race, on that disastrous occa
sion, poured out his life’s bio-id for his coun
try.
All of you have heard of Buena Vista, and
how my noble brother, covered with a hundred
wounds, upon his back, surrounded by enemies,
to long as his feeble arm could raise his sword,
battled for the honor and glory of the Union
and of his native Kentucky. Ncne of you can
have forgotten that funeral cortege which, leav
ing Washington City, passing through half the
Uqfo'a, arrived at Ashland, amid the uatiou’s
tears and grief—a patriot was brought home to
be laid under the green sod of the Und which
had so honored him, and upon which he had
reflected so much honor. Fellow-citizens, this
is ray race—these were my people—and with
their memories always present and clustering
around me, I appeal to you to know whether it
U possible for me to be false or insincere.
Early in last year, fellow citizens, it was ap
parent to all men that the Whig party, as an
organized party, was gone. The seeds of its
fall were sown in 1840,when the plume of a mili
tary chieftain was permitted to dazzle men’:
eyes. Bat in 1848, when adopting the doctrine
that availability and sncces were rather to be
looked to than right, in lieu of that noble idea
that it was better to be right than be President,
the Convention of Philadelphia set the seal up
on the fate of the party. Refusing to reassert
a platform of Whig principles, it selected Gen.
Taylor as its candidate for the Presidency, up-
npon tne single idea of his availibility. The
bandwriting was as plainly npon the wall as at
Belshazzar s feast.
The Whig party broken up, disorganized,
aud apparently hopelessly so, Old line Whigs
began to ask themselves the question which
once the immortal Sage of Mashfield propoun
ded himself, “Where ami to go?” Rumors
came to us of a new party which was said al
ready to have attained vast strength, even
while many doubted its very existence. Secret
and mysterious, it was reputed, like Minerva
from the brain of Jove, to have sprung forth
lully armed. Its purposes were said to be the
introduction of a purer and better state ol
things in politics, and the good only of the
country. M
Seeing many of my old Whig associates at
taching themselves to it, I was told it wus but
Whiggery iu disguise aud that it only differed
from the old Whig party in seeking a modifi
cation of the naturalization haws. I had my
self always thought that some modification
ought to be made of those laws, and that grea
ter safe-guards ought to be placed around the
elective franchise. I was told that its secrecy,
which was abhorrent to my nature, was only
to continue until the party got fairly under
way, when everything would be made open
and public. Deceived by men in whom I had
every confidence, I thought it to be my duty to
join this new party.
I presented myself for admission into the
order. Do not be deceived—I did not get iu.
The first questions that were propounded to me
astonished aud startled me. They were in sub
stance these; 1 do not pretend to quote the very
words: Where was I bora ? The place of rny
residence ? Was I twenty-one years of age'/
Was I a Roman Catholic? Were my parents
Prosestant ? Was ray wife a Roman Catholic ?
Was I willing to oppose lor all officers of honor,
trust or profit in tho gift of the people, all for
eigners and Roman Catholics?
Fellow-citizens, I am not telling you un
truths. I declare to you upon my honor, and
in the presence of God, that I believe these to
be substantially the questions which were pro
posed to me; and I appeal to those members
of tbe so-called American natty, who may be
present, to answer whether I have not stated
truly the obligations under which they placed
themselves iu the early part of 1155, whatever
may now be the doctrines of their party, which
1 do not pretend to kuow. I do not expect them
to answer me, but I do expect them, when they
go to their own homes, to make answer to their
own consciences whether I have not spoken the
truth. Shocked aud startled, I requested the
presiding officer to read again the obligation
ugainst foreigners and Catnolics. It was done,
aud an attempt made to explain away the force
of the clear meaning of the words of the obli
gation. I observed that I bad been mistaken
and deceived as to the purposes of tbe party,
or my shadow would never have darkened their
door. I took my hat and wished them good
morning.
Fellow-citizens, there was once in the mid
dle age3 a political society In Europe, and es
pecially in Germany, called the Illuminati; one
of its practices was that when an individual
became partially or fully initiated, and after
ward disclosed any of its secrets, two alterna
tives were offered to the wretched victim a cord
and a dagger were secretly placed by his bed-
Hide, and he might either bang himself or put
himself to death with a dagger ; if he choose
neither of the delightful alternatives, his
nearest relation even, his own brother, if a
a member of the society, was bound to take
his life. Fellow-citizens, ull secret political
societies are alike. In this age, since letters
and the press are come about, the cord and
the dagger are no longer used ; a venal press
affords a far more potent weapon and more
ifendird to long u ti flattered fa the breeze. I
would have followed it alwan, and I alway* ex
pect to maintain Whig principle*. Like an elo
quent Old-line Whig of Missouri, now acting
with the Democrat*, “1 have surveyed the whole,
battle-field, but I find no Whig banner under
which to fight.” Like him, I am forced to the
conviction that the old Whig flag lie* furled
upon the tomb of my father.
Fellow-citizens, the country is in danger. In
1820 our wisest and best statesmen told us there
was great danger from tbe question of slavery.

nut settle the question. Again, in 1649-50, it
raised its horrid front. Fortunately for the
couutry,at that time there were theu at Wash
ington men of a giant race, who couid see and
appreciate the danger, and want the country
0! it. Do you not recollect how the black cloud
sat like a leaden pall upon tbe hearts of men -
bow the bravest trembled for the Union. Do
you not remember with what anxiety all eyes
were turned to Washington—with what tremb-
bling eagerness you listened for every scrap ol
new* ? At last the tidings came that tbe Com
promise Measures of 1S50 had beeu passed, al
though in detail. Have you forgotten the re
joicings throughout the whole land ? How the
bells rung, aud the glad shouts went up to
Heaven in gratitude that the country was safe?
How vain and bow futile were tbe hopes of
tbe best and wisest of men. Scarcely are some
of tbe principal actors in those noble scenes
cold in their graves, when again the black cloud
Is upon us. The country is in danger. The
Black Republicans of tbe North, determined to
carry out their designs against the South at all
hazards, and at every risk, have nominated
purely sectional candidates for the Presidency
and Vice Presidency. North against the South-
union or dlssolutiou—this is the question now be
fore you, aud you cannot avoiu it. It is not 1
alone who tells you so. Americans, as you
choose to call yourselves Old-Line Whigs, it U
Mr. Fillmore also who tells you so.
I believe every word that Mr. Fillmore says.
As surely as the sun shines the sountry is in
danger. I have a high respect for Sir. Fill
more, aud il he stood precisely where he did in
1*50 1 should prefer him to auy man for the
Presidency. Even as it is, personally I prefer
him to either of the other candidates. But,fel
low-citizens, there is no living man whom I love
so well as 1 do that great union of States—my
country—for which my lather gave his life. Mr.
Fillmore lias given us good adriee—advice
which accords witii ray owujudgmeut: he tells
us that the Unioa Is in immeut danger ; he
leads us to believe that the probabilities are that
if Mr. Fremont is elected, the Union will be
dissolved; and not into two parts, but shivered
into fragments! Old Line Whigs, what is our
duty ? It lies with us to save the Union. The
caudiates of the Black Republican party must
ba defeated, else, as Mr. Fillmore tells us—as
we have been told by the greatest statesmen
since 1«20—the Union is in dire and imminent
peril. For me, I am for tbe preservation ol
the Union. Destroy all the parties now in ex-
isteuce, but for God s sake—lor the sake of hu
man liberty—save the Uniou. I have uo tathpn
the sincerity of that man who, with bis mouth
full of protestations of love for his country,und
for the memory of my dead father, cannot lay
ais personal prejudices and predilections upon
the altar a willing sacrifice for the salvation ot
of his country.
How are we to defeat Fremout ? We can
not elect both his opponents. Neither of them
—neither Mr. Fillmore nor Mr. Buchanan—is
presented for the suffrage of Old Line Whigs
upon a pure Whig platform. There are princi
ples avowed and maintained by both the par
ties of which they are representatives which
we do not approve, it is neoessarv for us to
choose between them, whichever is most likely
to defeat the Black Republican candidate ; aud
in making the choice it is not necessary for ns
to endorse or to give in our adhesion to the
principles which either represent. I believe
that the Union would be safe with either, and
it is our duty to save the Union if we can. The
question for us is resolved into a mere* question
of chances—which is the most likely to succeed
according to our best lighter* Fillmore or Mr.
Buchauau?
Fellow citizens, I have made my choice
Looking over the whole country, not confining
my view to my own State, or to my own locali
ty—not suffering myself to be influenced by
partisan journals, or by partisan orators—I am
deliberately oonvineed that Mr. Fillmore bas
uot the least c.iance of success, and that if it
be at all possible to deteat Fremont, the Demo
cratic party, with their candidates Buchauau
aud Breckinridge, with the ai* of the Union-
loviug Old Line Whigs, is the only party which
has the least chance of doiug so. Show me a
State certain or uearly certain for Fillmore,
and l will show you two for Buchanan. I hold
in my hand authentic results of the lust elec
tions, from which alone we can form reliable
conclusions. From these it appears that, while
twelve of the Southern States are almost cer
tain for Buchanan, Mr. Fillmore has, at the
oest, but doubtful chaucos for the remaining
three. Thus, Mr. Buchanan presents hims.*lf
with almost the whole South in solid phalanx.
At the North his count of States is to the lull
as good, and, in my opiuiou, much better than
Mr. Fillmore’s besides we Whigs know well,
and to our cost,'the wonderlul tenacity ot tne
Democratic party—how it has held together
and had success when we most couUdeutly ex
pected its defeat.
I know, fellow whigs, how difficult it is for
you to get rid of old prejudices, either of at
traction or of repulsion. 1 have not forgotten,
however, that upon a question of mere availa
bility, the Whigs of Kentucky were able,
through their delegates at Philadelphia in 1S48
to give up their idol, the inau whom they loved,
and who loved them, and who had done so
much for the houor of Kentucky, that when
ever Kentucky’s name was mentioned, at home
or abroad, bis name at once arose before the
mind’s eye, and whenever his name was men
tioned Kentucky appeared, Fellow-whigs, do
you love Mr. Fillmore so much the better than
you did Henry Clay that you cannot make the
same sacrifice of your predilections for the one
that you did for the other upon much less oc
casion ?
But, fellow citizens, 1 am often asked how it
is possible that I, ray father’s son,can recon
cile it to myself to vote for ilr. Buchanan, who,
they say, had so seriously injured and wronged
ray father by originating, or, if not origi
nating by being complicated with and mixed
up in some way or other with that vile old
charge of bargain and intrigue betwixt him
and Sir. Adams. In nine cases out of ten the
pereous who in my presence refer to that affair,
know absolutely nothing about It, and when I
refer them to authentic records they are too
much prejudiced, and love to be prejudiced too
well, to allow them to make the most ordi
nary examination.
I have fully and carefully stndied tho whole
history of the bargain and intrigue slander,
with the express purpose of ascertaining the
truth or the falsity of the charges against Mr.
Buchanan, and the result of my research has
been, that as an honest man I am bound to
acquit him of having had any part in original
slander, or of having d« no my father any wrong
when he was summoned before the public as a
witness against him. I am bound to acquit
him upon the testimony of the very person to
whom he is said to have wronged and slandered
and however little partisan editors und parti
san orators may esteem the evidence of my
father himself, it Is abundantly sufficient for
wotiM not hm expressed such opinion* unless
be believed them to be tree. He was satisfied
with Mr. Buchanan, and so expressed himself
privately and publicly; th.t is enough Tor me,
and *o far as l am concerned, it U or the amal-
lest possible consequence wbat may be tbe
opinion of those partisans who are now endeav
oring to strike down their political opponent
with weapons dragged from tbe tomb.
Fellow-citizens, you are aware you cannot
vote for Fillmore alone. You must know that
in voting for the electoral ticketofUr. Fillmore,
you also vote for Andrew Jackson DoueDon; as
in voting for that or Mr. Buchanan, you vote for
JohnC. Breckinridge. Ilr. Fillmore himself
became President by one of those dLq»en>atious
of Providence which may likewise cause Mr.
Donelson to fill the chair, if tbeir ticket were
snccessftil- Between Donelson and Breckinridge
I could not hesitate for a single instant I know
M^jor Breckinridge well; he U not only my fel*
low-Kentuckian. but my fellow-townun naLo.
We have differed in politic*, but 1 hav*- la-Ver
heard but one opinion expressed **f bim—that
he is an honorable, high-toned Kentucky gen
tleman. It affords me very great pleasure to
relate to you an incident which occurred In my
presence, and which afforded as much gratia-
fleation to my father as it was honorable and
creditable to Major Breckinridge. Very soon
after bis first election to Cougress, Major Breck
inridge called upon my father, and 1 was pre
sent at the interview. “Mr. Clay,*’ said Major
Breckinridge, (of course I can only give the
substance.) “I have been elected from your «ld
district,and am about to go, quite a young
man, to Washington City. We have always
differed, sir, in politics, but I have ever enter
tained the highest respect to you. I have no
doubt but I shall often have occasion Tor good
advice, and if you will allow me, sir, to do so, it
will afford me great satisfaction to call freely
upon you at \\ ashington, and to be enabled to
avail myself of your wisdom and great ex
perience.”
Between such a man as this and Andrew
Jackson Donelson, I at least fellow-citizens,
would have no difficulty in making a choice.
Fellow-citizens, I have already occupied
more of your time thau I had any right to ex
pect would be given so attentively to evey
word that I have addressed to you. I thank
you from the buttom of my heart, I trust that
yon will allow me,on taking my leave of you,
to indulge the hope that my effort to direct
your attention to the imminent danger which
threathens our glorious Uniou may not lie
wholly without avail, and that you will, at auy
rate, tellow-ctiizens, believe me in what I have
slid to you to have been perfectly aud entirely
sincere.

vindictive punlshmeut. By falsehood, by cal
umny, by libel aud detraction, not only may
the heart of tbe victim himself !»c torn in
pieces, bnt the feelings of his wife, bis mother,
his children, of his whole family are reached
and laceratsd for vengance’s sake. Fellow-citi
zens, such persecution I myself have undergone
and you know It.
I could not reconcile it to my conscience to
become a Know Nothing, because I believed
the principles of the party to lie antagonistic
to civil and religious liberty, and dangerous to
our republicun institutions. Throwing out a
banner inscribed, “Americans only shuIl rule
America.” they appeared to me like the vailed
Prophet of Khorassan, who, concealing his
horrible vissago behind a silver veil, erected
shrines
•-Where faith may mutter o’er her mystic sptlti,
Written In blood, and Bigotry may swell
The sail ho spreads for Heaven with blasts from
Hell.”
I could not become a Know Nothing—“where
shall I go?” Fellow-citizens, I turned my
thoughts back to the old party of my father,
I knew its principles to be true: some of its
practices had been bad; but I believed its prin
ciples, once true, they must always be so, for
truth cannot die. Tiicy told me that the par
ty was dead, bnt I believed that it was only af
ter tho death that tbe resurrection could come.
In concert with some of my Whig brethren, we
determined to strive after its resurrection.
There was no meeting calling itself Whig in
all ray region or country, which I did hot at
tend. There was no convention at which 1 was
not present. Every effort to resuscitate the old
party which could be made was made. The
result was the Convention at Louisville on tho
3d of July. It was then resolved to be inex-
E edientto present Whig candidates for the
ighest offices for the suffrages of the people:
and it was determined that, having asserted
onr old prineiples, it was proper that each indi
vidual should be left free to make his own
choice according to bis own conscience and his
own principles, for the good of hi* couutry. # «. T __
Fellow-citizen*, 1 bar* fallowed .the Whig bargain and intrigue. I know that mjj\
--
me, his sou. The charge of bargain and
intrigue was first made by Mr. Kreraer, in an
anonymous letter, subsequently reiterated by
Carter Beverly, in bis celebrated Fayetteville
letter, and finally asserted by General Jackson
who assumed the responsibility of it, and to
prove its truth summoned Mr. Bnchannn before
the public as his only witness. Mr. Buchanan
promptly responded to the call for his testi
mony. Did he sustain Mr. Kremer, Carter
Beverly and General Jackson, the last of
whom had summoned him? On the contrary
his evidence was clear and distinct, and fully
exculpated Mr. Clay from charges mad against
him. So Mr. Clay regarded it himself, and he
the person accusud, testified, publicly and pri
vately that he considered Mr. Buchanan had
done him no wrong. 1 read to you from Colton's
Private Correspondence of my father, his pri
vate letter to his old friend, Judge Brooke, of
Virginia—the friend of his lire-time—a letter
never lutended for publication, dated August,
1827, In which, refering to Mr. Buchanan’s
Lancaster letter, he says: “I could not desire
a stronger statement.” Again in public, upon
the occasion of a dinner given him in Wash
ington on his retirement front fhe office of
Secretary of State, he said:
“That citizen (General Jackson) has Jdone
me great injustice. It was iuflictcd, os I must
ever believe, for the double purpose of gratify
ing private resentment and promoting personal
ambition. When, during the late canvuss, he
came forward in the pnblic prints, under his
proper name, with his charge ugainst me, and
summoued before the public tribunal his friend
and only witness (Mr. Buchanan) to establish
it, the anxious attention of the wholeAmcrican
people was directed to the testimony which
that witness might render. He promptly obey
ed the call, and testified to what be knew. He
could say nothing, and he said nothing which
cast the slightest shade upon my honor or in
tegrity. What ho did say was the revorso of
any implication of me.”
Thus, fellow-cltfzcns, we have the private
and publio opinion or my father respecting the
testimony of Mr. Buchanan upon the charge of
