xcas one had never seen; yet one whose
conduct, character, and good qualities, emf
lied him 10 any and every confidence. As
well might the conclusion be adduced, that !
had recommended a selection exclusiv ely
from one or the other Of the parties, as that
the cabinet, from a motive Of policy, should
be kept equally poised, by appointing two OF
each, for any advice was, to select men OF
probity, virtue, and talents, without regard to
party.
The voice of Washington, in his farewell
address to the nation, was, that party animOs-
;ty was not to be encouraged, because " il was
calculated to distract the public councils, and
enfeeble the public administration - and,
with his, the voice ofevery patriot will accord.
Virtue being the main pillar OF Republican
Government, unless virtuous men shall be
drawn into its administration, the fabric must
trembe. Designing and corrupt men may
cover their intrigues under a prete nd.d love
FOR virtue and patriotism but a truly pure
man will be without disguise, verifying, ms he
passes along, the old adage, that the tree is
best known by its fruit.
My letters. have, by the President, and
with my consent, been placed in the hands OF
amutua friend, Mr.. Eaton, with permission
to publish them whenever he pleases to do so.
Icare not when il is done, for am without
conceaImeDt of any kind. My opinions and
sentiments, such "a they have been written
or expressed ut any time, each and every one
are at all times welcome ~. In public or in
private letters, but breathe the sentiments
feel, and which my judgment sanctions and
no disposition will ever be entertained by ME,
either to disguise or To suppress them.
am, very respectfully, your most ohedient
scrv ant, ANDREW JACKSON.
