Frances Wentworth Morton, daughter of the Hun. Perez Morton In the death of this amiable and pious lady her friends have sustained a loss not easily repair ed. The benevolence ot her disposition, in which the kindest charities seemed blended; the warmth and affectionate sympathy of her feelings for those who suffered;* and the playful mimation which enlivened the domestic circle, have caused a melancholy void iu that circle which can pever cease to be felt. From early youth her heart was impressed with a sense of religion, which strengthened with her years, and consoled her under every event. Il gave a cheerfulness to her disposition, which was seldom overcast by a shade of thought hut thut which sympathy for suffering produced. A.I within her bosom was sunshine and hope— t er undevialiag faith in the promises ol a Sa* viour, elevated her to frequent contemplations ot IJ is perfections in the Divinity she worship ped and adored Her feeling-- were so direct ed to.this object, that it wa* under all circum stances a source of the highest happiness to exercise the talents with which she was gifted in expressing those hopes which shed a lustre over her path, and evinced her trust in a God, who in his goodness was preparing her for the Inotion ot those hopes in ihe presence of her S viour and her God i’he following < ffusion, written a week or two before her illness, und the last that pro ceeded from her pen, which she had not even revised, is given as a proof of the spirit of de votion which animated her existence.

Lafayette are in market: * Permit me to make known, as interesting to your readers in Florida, that the illustrious •md much beloved Lafayette has 9ent rne, and requested ms to execute, au unqualified power of attorney to sell at public or private sale, one half of his Florida Lands. I have no doubt that, in distinguishing me by this mark of his confidence and regard, his leading object was to relieve the good people of Florida, and its capitol, Tallahassee, into which his land runs from all apprehensions of the check which might ensue to the growth of that country, by having in the heart of it a body of24 000 acres of unoccupied land. 1 understand much of it to be exceedingly well adapted to ihe growth of cotton and sugar-cane, and of tobacco; but I will give you a more particular description of it when better informed In the mean time my plan will be, as at present advised, to sell alter nate sections, on long credits, to practical net tiers, as far as may be, demanding only a small portion to be paid in cash ” POLITICAL. OUR COUNTRY. It is little more than half a century since the United States became an independent nation The capacity of the people for self-govern ment was then by many sincere patriots and statesmen considered problematical; all watch ed the experiment with an anxious eye*, it is our high privilege to behold and to enjoy the result • The happiness and prosperity of our coun try have exceeded expectation; our popula lion is immense y increased; our commerce car ries the produce of our soil to every clime; agriculture, the chief support of a republic, yields abundantly to the labours of the farmer; manufactures are carried on with an cnterpri 'iug spirit; internal improvements a sure -uiirce of wealth, have been bountifully en e urageil, internal commotions have been scarcely known: and our rights have been •amtained, and our strength tested in foreign wars with two ot the most formidable Europe an powers. YVe entertain no apprehensiv- - ness of the durability of these blessings, they rest on a sure basis; the industrious and moral habits of the people, the diffusion of education and intelligence throughout society, aud their united influence on public opinion. —Our liberty is far remote from licentious ness, it restrains the turbulence of faction, en forces law, controls vice, cherishes virtue, fos ters religion, protects all, oppresses nose: a just confidence in the stability of our constitu* Hon is every where felt. Where all are possessed nf equal political privileges, and every one may aspire to the highest honors, it is peculiar? important That nseful knowledge should be widely dissemi nated: •‘knowledge is power,” and consequently in proportion as it is widely extended Will a republic be mighty. It may be the policy ot despots to dread the extension of light among the mass of the people, and to suppress schools colleges, aud universities: ours is a different policy; the poor have been gratuitously in structed, seminaries of learning have beet, cherished, and it is a rare thing to see a ma; bom in this country who cannot both reati and write While the foundation is thu: broadly and firmly laid, the higher branches of education, the sciences and the accomplish meats have not been neglected. Let us per severe in a policy thus wise and beneficial, and we need not dread (hat any human cause will bo strong enough to retard our progressive increase in national strength and individual happiness.

States Telegraph: Sir—i enclose to you, fur publication, my letter to Major Hamilton, referred to in Mr. Crawford’s fritter to me ol the 30th April. 1830, which last forms so prominent a place in tne recent address of the Vice President to the people of the United States. Had -1 believed this letter of any importance to Mr Calhoun^ it would have been voluntarily communicated to him, after the receipt of his answer of the 1st June, to my letter to hkn of the 3]st May. I give it to the public, not because my opinion of it is changed, hut because Mr. Calhoun, in his letter to the President of the 25th of Au gust, J830, after iny offer to furnish him with a copy of it if he desired it, reiterates the opin ion that it ought to have been shown to him. This communication to M*jor Hamilton was made without inquiry into his motives for ask ing it. Certainly no hostility to Mr Calhoun was imagined, nor is ilperc* ived how the facts stated could, of themselves, be any way inju rious to him. Major Hamilton's character wa9 to me a sufficient guarantee that the informa tion requested was not sought fur any unwor thy purpose. A word or two of explanation, in the farther agency 1 have had in this affair is justly due to Mr. Crawford. I heard nothing of my cor respondence with Major Hamilton, and the subject was scarcely thougtit of until, during last winter that gentleman came to the Senate Chamber, ami requested me to give to the President, if not improper to my judgment, the information I had given to him. I alien if ho had not my letter. He answered that he had. I then said, Mr. Crawford spoke to me, and speaks to every body, of this . ffair, with the same indifference that he does ol «ny other in cident in his political life. I am sure he does not care what you do with the letter. You may give the-President a copy of if. Major Hamilton declined doing this (rum a motive of delicacy. He slated that he had conversed, cr corresponded, I do not recollect which, with Mr. Calhoun on this subject, and tfiat the statements ot Mr. Crawford aud Mr. Calhoun did not agree. He was, therefore, unwilling to interfere, further than to comply with the President's wish masking of Die the iniormuiiou. Ou this statement. I was determined not to give the information wit out Mr, Crawford’s express assent. The information was no lon ger a matter of indifference, and I did not chuo-e to give it to the President without ap prising Mr Crawford that he ami Mr. Cal- noun differed in their account of the transac tion, and without submitting to him my state ment of our con versa* ion for correction, if it was, in any respect, erroneous. I obtained for that purpose, and enclosed to him a copy of my ||*llor *« Hamilton Hfo mm«/.■> Ill before the public. 1 found, to my surprise, that I had erred in repeating what be had said, and to avoid the possibility of any other mis take, I deemed it safest to send to the Presi dent a copy of my letter to Major H. and Mr. Crawford's letter to me In making this com munication, from respect to the personal deli- racy of M ijor Hamilton, his name was kept •it of view. Justice to Mr. Crawford demands the pob> cation of Ins letter to Mr. Calhoun. Having leceived from him a copy ot it, shortly after ft jvas written, I have submitted it to the mspec. • tun ot some of those in whose judgment I know he reposes implicit coufidunc •; aud as they coincide with me in the opinion I have expressed, I send i to yon for immediate in sertion ia your p*per It is for Mr Crawford, and for him only, to decide whether any thing more is necessary for his justification. I have found myselt very unexpectedly compelled to «ny any thing about this transaction, and trust that none of those who are interested in it will find it necessary to introduce my name into ther further discussion of it. JOHN FORSYTII. Georgetown, Feb. 19 1831 A REMEDY FOR POISON- Messrs.

S 1828. Dear Sir—Our incnd, Wm. H Crawtord, was id inis place a few hours yesterday, oa pri vate business. I had very unexpectedly art opportunity to comply with the request -made 10 your letter, dated Savannah, January 25 — I had a long conversation with Mr. C aud af terwards read to him your lel’er. He regret ted that your engagements did not permit you to pay him a passing visit. By his authority 1 state, in reply to your inquiry, that at a meet ing of Mr. Monroe’s Cabinet, to discuss the course to be pursued toward Spain, ig conse quence of General J*ek**m’*—:proceedings to Florida during the Seminole War, Mr. Cal houn, the Secretary of the War Department, submitted to, and urged upon the President, the propriety and necessity of arresting and trying General Jackson. Mr. Monroe was ve ry much annoyed by it; expressed a belief that such a step.would not meet the public appro bation: that General Jackson had performed too much public service to be treated as a \ounger or subaltern office? might; without shocking public opinion. Mr Adams spoke with grout violence against the proposed ar rest, and justified the General throughout. Ve hemently urging the President to make the cause of the General that of the administration. In consequence of the strong excitement produced by the President’s obvious embar rassment, Mr. Crawford interposed in the dis cussion, and suggesting that there was no ne cessity for deciding upon the course to be pur- ued towards the General, as the question for which the Cabinet was convened did not re quire it. They were called to determine bow Spain wire to be treated in relationJo the Flori da affair; ihe conduct of th** G neral was a -natter exclusively between the Genera) and •.is own Government, in which, however Spain might feel interested, she bad not no right
