„<V reasons of my distinct recollection of the circumstance. Mr. Monroe before lie left Washington, had particularly enjoined upon m« not to leave Washington me not to leave Washington for Georgia t.n- j | General Jackson's dispatches should lie received, and tlio (Cabinet should decide up on llio events of the Hominolo campaign. During bin absenco in London, [badfrequent rauveraatiottH with Mr, Calbouu who uni formly informed mo Mini General Jackson bad no oilier orders for the government of bis conduct than those given to General Guinea. Those orders I bud seen. His representations winch at that time I had no reason to doubt, made a strong impression upon my mind, and extremely unfavourable to General Jackson. 1 entered the Cabinet therefore with decided impressions against to be bis interest, to violnte it. In regard to this assertion of the Vice-President, Mr. Erving observes, “These are stout assertions, since it is now ascertained that the ofliciul nows of the capture of St. Murks, was recoi v- ut Washington early in the month of May, nearly thr< e weeks before either he or Mr. Crowninshicld left that city ; consequently itwaavery possible that that affair might have been the subject of a Cabinet council when letter was produced. It u* then demonstra ted that the letter written by Mr, Crownin- shield to the Vice President, does not impugn in the slightest degree the facts stated in his letter to me. That letter does not give the date oft he Cabinet council to which it refers ; and dates and references disprove the aster- lion of the Vice-President, that Mr.Crown- inshield could not have been present at any Cabinet, at which he was, upon the events of they were both present.”+ In the same letter the Seminole campaign, It remains for me to say a few words on Mr. Erving says “That Mr. Crowninshicld assorted the accuracy of every fact in his let ter to you (me,) and then r« luted V> me cir cumstantially what ' assed in the Cabinet consultation to which it refers. The question before the Cabinet was whether we should take possession of the Floridan, lie was op* t posed to the proj ct, and spoke against it the General; which were removed only by land ho mentioned to me in general terms the the production and rending of the confhien-1 argument which ho made use of on that tiul letter, of which to the best of my recollec- J occasion. He well recollects that n certain tion and belief, it was the first intimation I private letter was naked for. that Mr. Mon- had ever received of Mint letter. I am con-1 roe hod for notion it, but went to look for it, fidont Mr. Monroe ih mistaken in bis recoi. in some cabinet or retired place, Irgm winch lection of my coming into bis room, after bn brought a small box, or trunk, ("rod or blue, Mr. Calhoun, and reading the letter. It is 11 think ho said,) in Ibis was founu the letter, woithv of remark too that in his letter oftbu j Mr. Crownnisliicld’s recollection is minutely 2lst December, when it is more likely that exact. Hu recollects ns tho’ lie could s-e bis recollection was correct, than in the the corner oftbo small box in which the let- spring of 1830. lie tolls General Jackson | ter was found, tlio very p’ucc in the room that the letter was given to Mr. Calhoun, hnl does not connect mo with Mr. Culhnm nnd that letter, and I have a distinct recollec tion of hearing him givo the sumo account of it, several times, in none of which did lie connect inn in the affair of the letter. The Vice-President se* ms to think he I ns dispos ed of Mr. Crowninslnld’s evidnneo, by the letter he has received from him—hut by com paring the two letters it will be seen that the Jotter to him does not contradict nsingiesyl.'a biff of liia previous letter to oo. Mr. Culhouu ina jiiototo Mr. Crowninshi' Id's letter 10 him aays—“ Nor could lie have been presviit ut any meeting of the Cabinet on tlio subject of the enptu o of St Marks, or Pensacola in where lie himself sat, during the discussion and nil sim hr details.” Mr. Calhoun must therefore resort to some oilier shift or device ;l of Mr. Crowninshiold'u evidi the charge of disclosing Cabinet socreta. I have but little o add to what I have urged m my letter of the 2d October.— Tlio principles stated in that letter are believ ed to bo orthodox. In this republic the Pres ident is appointed by the nation, and he ap points his Cabinet by and wiiii the advice and consent of ilie Senate. The President nnd Ins Cabinet tire therefore responsible to tral between General Jackson & Mr. Adams. Wonderful !!! It is presumed that there was not another individual in the United States in this happy state of quiescence upon the presidential election. General Jackson and Mr. Adams were so unlike in their tem per, manners, and principles that it is at least difficult to conceive, how any man wlio lind the least knowledge of the two men could be neutral between them. But I beliovc Mr. Calhoun was not even neutral between tlioso gentlemen. Does the nation recollect the letter oftbo 3d of July, 1824, by which Mr. ask, why not charge Mr. Adams with having written it ?” “My reply is that the answer is conclusive. That letter contained two falsehoods, one intended to injure me, tho other to henefit you (John C. Calhoun), and that which was for (John C. Calhoun’s) ben efit, taking from Mr. Adams half the credit of defending General Jackson, nnd giving it to you (John C. Calhoun.) Admitting for the sake of argument, that Mr. Adams was dis posed to injure me, no one will, I think, sup pose that ho would voluntarily ascribe to you ording to the principles of the government to bo known. Otherwise the highest public functionaries known to the Constitution are irresponsible. To tins responsibility inherent in our Constitution, there is but oim excep tion sanctioned by reason. If the secrets of the Cabinet are disclosed while the Cabi net is in existence and charged with the management of the national concerns, the Cabinet might be rendered incapable of conducting those affair* successfully. This the broidest ground upon which the prince LitoroLO hn* now become King of hurt country. The deputation inviting him to die throne was expect til London every hour, at die lust dates—the/iew King, it is said, would tboroulter proceed to Brussels without delay. The trial of CoBUE.rfor seditious publications had terminated. The Jury could not agree upon a verdict —there were six for and six against his acquittal. A. very dangerous conspiracy had been discovered among some Polish officers, and the numerous Kunsinit prisoners in Warsaw, in lime to prevent any ill effects. Severn* distinguished individuals hud been arrested. The Arch Duke Constantine is dead. Ono ac count says that ho died by his own hands—we think it more likely ihnt he fell by ireadier/. It was said that ihn 28th Sept, whs llio d.iy fixed for the coronation of King William the 4th. __ v . , half the merit of his own actions, to the man C lhoun, Mr. Adams nnd John M’Lean then who was tlio most strenuous opposer of his Postmaster General, withdrew their mimes j wishes. If the intrinsic evidence of the letter, from tho lt.h of July Dinner at Washington | fixes it upon you (Mr. Cnlhoun,) and not up- hccausoNinian Edwards was excluded from Ion Mr. Adams, subsequent events strongly that dinner? How happened this union.— corroborate tho evidence deducible from the uiauuiwiailullv , nills Thai lott-r at least, shows a friendly fueling j published letter.” To the foregoing reason- T|)(J chl)lerB i9mcrcu8 . ng wherever it had appeared: between them ; and the act was done to prop ; mg, no objection is taken in the notes.

Mr. Calhoun states that fined bis notes to facts ; and had not extend- his opinion hetwe n the two candidates, to- 1 c d them to reasoning.

Jackson's conduct throughout-” General Jackson knows it.”' Leaving it therefore to be inferred, that every’ conspicu ous friend of Mr. Calhoun in this matter, had been influenced so to act by tho Vice Presi dent. Now unfortunately’ for his friend Lumpkin- the Vice President declares to the people of the United States that he was neu- tny reputation, and charged him with having excited Edwards to the act, and with revising the charges, and state . what General Noble informed rno, of bis (Calhoun's) daily visits to Edwards, for 8 or 10 days beforo ho set out for the West. No part of this charge is den> d in the notes. The whole charge is therefore admitted. In the Vice President’s elaborate essay of tho 29th of May 1830,to the President, speaking oftlie Nashville letter, he twice directed, to draft Ids note in conformi ty to decisions which luid been previously made ” To this train of reasoning, the Vice President appends the following note : “This appears to be a non requitur. The decision tnuy have been unanimous, and a new note necessary, because the note did not ngree with it.” I am perfectly willing that the in telligent reader should decide the question of logic, between us, by adding a single observ i- tton,that in the ordinary routine it was tho duty of t he Secretary of S'ate, to have drawn tho exposition which appeared in the Intelli gencer, and that he would have done it, s highly probable, hut from his having dissent d from the principles it contained. In the fore going nolo, the Vico President evidently ob jects to the argument presented in my letter. If he excepts to the argument in this case, lie was more strongly bound to except to hn» which tended to fix upon him, the writing of the iNashville letter, if it was illogical and un sound, especially as it was presented in com pliance with his express demand, contained in his letter of the 29th of May, 1830. By his objecting to the correctness of the argu ment, in one case, nnd waving any objection to that furnished nt his request, ho must hr considered ns having acquiesced in the cor rectness, and legitimacy, and soundness oftlie conclusion, that he is the author of tho Nash- ville letter.

DEATH OF THE GRAND DUKE CON STANTINE. It appears that the Grand Duke Constan tine (lute Vice King of Poland) is dead.

In these tiiiiec of philosophy and infidelity it would be considered superstitious even to hint at the agency of a retributive Provi dence. Some oftbo Ilnmbmg letters represent the Russ an army as in a state of demoralization. They compare it to that of Nupolcou afec the burning of Moscow.
