for-wurd n new plank boat—The Floyd, named
nfur their generous competitor. She distanced

My dear Si.: I encl-se an extract front th • Intel-

op|K>-ed to me tire making of tlio letter of your
correspondent, rapubHslic.1 in that p?por, I know
t.oi who your correspondent is, noi have I any rea
son t» believe that lie was actuated by any unkind

which 1 have long cont.-nded. and which I hold
fur mure dear than any thing in the gift of tho Gov*
ernment or people. To nceomp!i.*h an object 1
h-.lii so high is uml has been the solo motive, for
many year*, tor my foiiiuitiing at my post Imn-; and
wlienuveri find that my prcsoi.cc is no longer of
any avail towards it 1 shall cheerfully ret.ro, leav
ing to others to struggle for nn hdiiot, which,
however high or worthy of contest has long hud hut
few charms f»r nm. As t»thc political movements
hereto which your correspondent udi.de*, in rela
tion to wlmt ho culls “ tho succession," nnd which
he says is absorbing every thing else, 1 know nothtug.
If they exist, In* docs well in representing me us
passive ns to wlmt i* going on. All who know me
know that there is not u member uf Congress who
takes less interest in that to which lie alludes.
It is well known to ull my friends here, thnt my
wish, individually, was and is, that th- y should bo
perfectly passive us to what volutes to office, nnd to
vote for tbe names of those presented, hy th-.se with
whom wo are acting, unless there should be some
valid personal objection, in order liint wo might
have greater weight in enrrying out thp measures wo
desire.
In ull this, I ninkn no complaint, imr do 1 intend
censure,and hud tho letter appeared in a paper of
any other State, or in any other than n fth-udly one
in nty own, it would have passed without notice fiotn

life to tho servi. u of the Suite and IJtib-n, w ithout

Mr. Callmnn replied, that this wn* not tho
proper oc.-n»ion to d'jeits* tho tueritsi.r tho bill; but
if it went, the task would bo nil oa-yonn, to show
that tho Senntm- Imd mint onotteou*ly clmroc-
Poized it. Tin* qii< siimi nt issue is on tho refe-
tortei*, nnd In* must expires his %tirp*ixent tho rea
son ussigue-.l by tliu Sni.ulor why it. sjtould not ho ,
referred to rim e.immittcu to which it bad boon. '
His H-n-on is. that tin* committee was, for tha
in.mt purr, composed of membois from tlio new-I
States, nnd who would, t'u-reforo, Im (mi fuvorabla .
to the bill. No one know butter than the donator
'but all bills -dem'd be .referred t<> c<-iumilt«o* fa-
voiul.b* to 1I1.-111. Tli re i* no priueiple Irnttcr es-
tnblishcd in tlm parliamentary code. It follows, that
tlm very reason hv Im* a-signed for not making tHo
reference, is tli.* strongekl to prove thut It should bo .
made.
But the Senator did not limit himself to objec
tion* to tlm reference. Ho introduced other nnd
• Minneoiis personal matter; and asked whether tho
Dill Imd tin* snn.-tb.nof tlm Executive, nssigningos
a reason fi.r hi* inquiry, that, if rumor was to bo

Senate wli- tl.cr it wns ib’CiMitis ..r proper that his

here. Wlwilier Im hltmild establish or sutpuml

tlio .Senator It was none nf bis concern, and ha
lius ho right to question me in relation to it.
But tlm S-nmor u-sutnes that a uhntigo In my
per-nnul relations involve# n elinngo of polilicnl
posi.iun; and it is on that he found# fits right (o
haiku tho inquiry. He judges, doubtless, by his
