10 THE AMERICAN PUBLIC.

The shocking catastrophe which
4las recently occurred, terminating the
siEe Of Alexander Hamilton, and which
mas spread gloom over our city that
viii not be speedily dissipated, de-
maads that the circumstances which
led 20 It, should not be concealed from
the world. When they shall be truly
and fairly disclosed, however some
may question the soundness of his
Judgment on this occasion, all must
be ready to do Justice to the rurity of
his views, and the nobleness of his
nature. Il will only here be added,
that the authenticity of the documents
and the accuracy of the information
which we have ut last obtained, are
beyond any questica>; and must put
an end 70 all mista6s or nisrepresen-
tation.
The followingis the correspondence
that passed between General Hamil-
ton and Celonel Burr, together with
an explanation of the conduct, motives
and views Of General Hamilton, writ

fore the meeting took place and only

Particular INSTANCE to be specified.
IL: would be able TO answer consistently
with his honor, and the truth, in substance,
that the conversation 10 which DR.. Coop
er alluded, turned wholly on political to-
pics, and did not attribute TO Col. Burr
any lnsiaoce OF dishonorabie conduct, nor
relate TO his private character; and in re-
iatIon to any other language or coyersali-
on OF General II. which Col. Bur. viii
specify, prompt and frank ayowal OF de.
