scheme lias failed Mr Adums is, psrticitlsrly,
reprobated, and the change of sentiment as re
gards him is in this part of the country very
great. There is scarcely an individual, notv, al
though recently he had many friends here, who
has not abandoned him.
Mr Crawford is well known in the District of
Columbia, lie is respected and beloved, and it
is a remarkable evidence nf the force ot virtue,
that even in the presence of the government,
popular sentiment as regards him is too strong
tube repressed,nnd the people too independent
to he overawed by ministerial interposition.
The partisans of A. and C. as well as tltesC
gentlemen are greatly chagrined. The great
numner of our eastern brethren settled in this
part ofthe country insured Mr Adams many
mends here, but they now almost universally
reprobate and desert him. Ifthflir opinion be

The extraordinary letter of Messrs Adams, Cal

political dram *, and their last hopes now rest
upon its "effect ’’ The experiment is now mak
ing. how far exultrd station ami the patronage
of office can exercise a successful influence a
mong a fee and intelligent people in upholding
corrupt men in order to destroy the innocent i
and, whether the object be accomplished or
not, the attempt augurs very ill for the stabili-
ty of our republican institutions, which can
be preserved only by the virtues of the peo
ple, and of those who administer tlirir govern
ment.
The conduct of the committee of arrangement
has been made the pretext for the Secretaries,
and the P. M. General, appearing before the
public, connected with the character of Mr Ed
wards. Now, setting aside all speculation, on
general principles, as to the propriety of Ed
wards* exclusion, it Would be very apparent, if
all the circumstances connected with it could be
made public, to have b eh not only highly pro
per but a matter of necessity. It is well known
here that Edwards will he not only sustained, if
possible, hot lie gladly made to triumph. That,
exposed villainy eanmit be made in our country
to triumph over truth and persecuted innocence,
may be resdi!y conceded; yet you are awai e that
when Edwards, (breed by the consciousness that
he was self-convicted, degraded and despised,
even by those who declined to condemn him
unequivocally, resigned hits commission, a strong
—a formidable resistance was made in the cabi
net to the President’s wishes to accept Uie re
signs'ion, »or is it known to this day thaCTt has
been acquiesced io *(t wasi i all probability de*
signed that the public mind should be permitted
to cool, and the perfidy of Edward* be in ■.•me
degree forgotten Such of the facts as Edwards
had proved, and which had been for years of pub
lie notoriety, and admitted, and satisfactorily
rx.'lai'ied by Mr. Crawford in his report to the
Senate, were harped upon as evidence of Ed
wards’ having "sustained his charges” and bv
perverting and mystifying the facts and testi
mony it was hoped the baseness of the accuser
might be concealed or extenuated The Adams
and Calhoun papers in Washington, under the
patronage and management, of t.iese gentlemen,
chalked out the plan of operation, and many
Journal* devoted to that par.y immediately co*
operated .Concurrent with this is the notice
taken of Edwards by Messrs. sdatns,l Jalhoun,
be. thq counsellors of the President and the
competitors of Mr Crawford. Towards the ac
c-impfivhment ot the scheme an imposing effect
was designed to be produced by the friends of
P.dwarrls on the anniversary just past The day
before (the 4th,) Mr Edwards sat with Mr A-
dams in his pew in the Unitarian Church, and
received the must pointed attentions This he
has frequently done since the close ofthe inves
tigation. It was intended to bring Edwards to
the public dinner and there distinguish him by
flattering attention. The consequence would
have been a false impression abroad, that at tlie
seat of government wb re Mr Crawford should
have friends to protect his feelings and churac.
ter, if deserving of prot.-citon, Mr Edward) was
publicly noticed with respect and approbation,
l he committee could not have been justified in
permitting an anniversary celebration to be pro
stituted to such an unhallowed purpose, or a
fraud to be-practised upon public opinion with
its countenance. But the consideration aside—
it was well known that there were many gentle
men who would not have sat at the table with
Piesidentaqd the two latter gentlemen
are concerned, we hsve no authority or in
formation—though we hope and believe for
their own sakea, and for the honor of the
nation, that their efforts to sustain and to
countenance Kdwards, have been exagger
ated and misrepresented.—We can speak
more explicitly in rclstimiio the Secretary
of State. Botme Edwards’s charges were
exhibited, Mr Adams was apprised by Mr
C— k, that charges, would be exhibited,
informed of their nature, and requested to
express his opipinn of their character, and
the properieiy o f preferring them In re
ply, Mr Adsms pronounced (hem to be
futile and absured, and did ample justice
to tiu character and merits nf the Secreta
ry of the Treasury.— We are sorry that
Mr Adams was subjected to the mortifica
tion of being so approached, and we do not
know which roust to admire, the audacity
or the meanness of the individual, who dar
ed to do it. On his part, the transaction
was involuntary, and after its occurrence,
honor and justice left him but one course
to pursue.which, whilst it displayed magna
nimity towards a rival did equal justice to
the integrity of his own character.”
The Phitludelphia Statesman, formerly
in favor of General Jackson, has changed
opinions. The Editor, after frankly sta
ting his reasons, concludes As follows’:—
“ He has not the least chance uf the e
lectoral vote of any New-England state, N.
Jersey, Virginia Georgia, Kentucky Ohio,
Indiana, Delaware, Missouri,ot halfof Ma
ryland. These constitute about two thirds
ofthe electorial votes of the Union, so that
it is certain the General cannot be chosen
by the people; and if the election goes to
the House of liepresentatives, it U a well
known fact that the members from but six
states out of twenty-four wilt vote for him
under a iy circumstances. So great has
been and continues to be the change nf
public opinion, that it is now even doubtful
whether he will receive the votes of Penn
sylvania or of Alabama. Taking into view
these considerations, we say thst, aa de
mocrats, we cannot support Gen. Jackson,
and even were we federalists, still we could
not support him. He disclaims all party,
why should not all parties disclaim him?
In the State of Mississippi three E!ecto<
rial Tickets arefvatned—for Messrs Craw-
ford, Jai-kson and Adams. In Alabama—
heretofore calculated upon as one of the
three States confidently expected for Gen.
Jackson—two entire Electorial Tickets
are formed, one for Mr Crawford and one
for General Jackson. The National Can
didates gain ground: General Jackson it
is presumed would withdraw, but that tlie
Holy Alliance against Mr Crawford are
afraid of consequences.—Demo. Press.

Destructive Fire.—A few minutes be-

it could be subdued, it proved to be the

that every thing was excessively dry; and

men of high honor and resolute spirit,wtio would
if lie appeared, thrust him from it. It was the
duty of the committee to use precautionary mea
sures against uproar and violence—to secure to
the comp ny social order and undisturbed har
mony. Nothing, therefore, seemed more pro
per to this end than a private intimation to Mr
E. in the event of bis profe&sing to subscribe to
the dinner, that his subscription could not be
received. The holders of the subscription pa
pers were alone informed of this and it was ne
ver intended to be known publicly, as nb wish
was entertained to wound Mr Edwards unneces
sarily.
But a paper was left at the b6ok store of
Messrs. Davis & Force, and Mr Porce is J. Q A
dams’Editor. The dire, tion in regard to Ed
wards must, therefore, have been communicated
to Mr Adams, or some partisan of his, and as the
intended exclusion would defeat tlie project for
giving Edwards eclat, s- me expedient fn this
unexpected emergency became indispensable.
The case wss desperate and a desperate remedy
seems indeed to have been applied. The A-
dams paper makes the private intimation of the
Committee public, by which Mr Edwards is wan
tonly exposed—and the Calhoun paper, tlie no
torious Wa-bington (republican, receives (or
publication the joint letter ofthe Trio, who at
once radily identify tbetnselvea with a convicted
calumniator, and leave the public no longer to
doubt the truth of Mr Randolph’* declaration,

Sir—In consequence of the many o :
conceptions that are abroad, with reap
to the share which i have had in the
struction hf Lord Byron’s Memoirs, I this]
it right to state the leading facta uf
transaction to the public.
Without entering into the resptclf
claims of Mr Muray and myself to the p
perty in these memoirs, (a question whid
now that they are destroyed, can bt ofh
little moment to any one) it is sulficiei
to say that, believing the manuscript .s'i
to be mine, I placed it at the dispi’H^
Lord Byron's sister, Mrs. Leigh, witho
sole reservation of a protest against its I
tal destruction—at least without previa
perusal and consultation among the |>
ties. The majority of the persons pres
disagreed with this opinion, and it wasli
only point upon which there did exist anj
difference between us.—The mamHcnf
was accordingly torn and burned beW

assembled S.OOOguineas, with interest,!
being the amount of what towed him op
the security of my bond, and for which
now stand indebted to my publishers,MC

Since then, the family of Lord Bjri
have, in a manner highly honprabl* j
themselves, proposed an arrangement *
which the sum thus paid to Mr Mart,
might be reimbursed me; but from feelior
