The same paper, Of the 18th, observes,

LEXINGTON, 18th Nov. 1922.
Gentleme1-I have witnessed with
very great regret the unhappy contro.
versy which has arisen between two
of my late colleagues ut Client. In
the course Of the several publications,
of which it has been the occasion, and
particularly in the appendix to n
pamphlet which has been recently
published by the Hon John q A.
dams, l think there are some errors,
(no doubt Internationally both rs to
matters OF fact and matters of opinion,
in regard 10 the transactions of Silent,
relating to the navigation Of the Mis-
sssippi. and certain liberties claimed
by the United States in the Fisheries,
and to the part which bore in those
transactions. These important inter
ests are ne,s well secured and, as it
respects that OF the navigation of the
Mississippi, left, as 1t ought to be, on
the same firm, footing with the naviga.
ton Of all The other rivers of the Con.
federacy, the hope may he confidently
cherished, that it will never hereafter
be deemed even fit subject of nego.
citation with any foreign power. An
account, therefore, of what occurred
in the negotiations of Client one of
these two subjects. is not, perhaps, ne
cessary to the present or future securi-
ty ofany of the rights of the nation,
and it is only interesting as appertain.
ing to its past history. With these i'm
pressions, and being extremely uu-
willing to present myself, II any time,
Before the public, | had almost re-
solved to remain silent, and thus ex-
pose myself the interference Of and &C.
quicscence in the correctness Of all the
statements made by both my collea.
CUES bit l have un more reflection
thought that it may be expected Of me,
and be considered as duty on my
part, to contribute all in my power to.
wards a full and faithful understand.
ing of the transactions referred to-
Under this conviction, / will, at some
future period, more propitious than the
present to calm and dispassionatc con-
sideration, and when there can be no
misrepresentation ofmotives, lay before
the public narrative of those transac-
tons as / understood them. Twill not
at this time, be even provoked Git
would at any time be inexpressibly
painful to me to find it necessary to
enter the field of disputation with either
Of my colleagues.
As to that part Of the official cor
respondence at Client, which had not
been communicated to the public, by
the President of the United States,
prior to the last session Of Congress, l
certainly knew of no public considers
tons requiring It to be withheld from
