We publish to day the conclusion of Mr.. Adams
letter to Mr.. Otis, with the Appendix. from the
Baltimore Patriot. In the Appendix, Mr.. Adams
excupates himself from the charge
of 3" servty to executive diciation," made against
him by Timothy Pickering in his Review OF
the Cunningham Correspondence, and reitera-
ted by the Crawford newspapers In publishing
the Letter and Appendix the Editor OF the Bat
more Patriot makes the following just and appro-
pl late remarks Ia the sentiments expressed in
which, we heartily concur.
I'VE have before given our reason for reprinting
The letter of John Quincy adams to III. g. Otis
on the embargo OF 1908, viz The course Mr.
Adams pursued in relation to that measure, having
been made the subject of discussion, and the pam
phet containing an exposition OF his views, being
cut of print. We have also announced the receipt
of an APPENDIX to the letter, from MIR. Adams
his will add the interest OF the letter very con
sideraby, inasmuch the only charge made against
he author by COL Pickering. in his late review Of
the Cunningham Correspondence, deemed worthy
of notice, is here met by the weapons that never
fail. CALM REASON AND TRUTH, and refuted.
We know not which to admire most in this let
ter and especially in the Appendix, the true repub
lcan principles incucated the quickness of intel
ect in discovering the motives of action in others,
and the facility OF his pen in exposing their errors
or the calm, yet firm and equable temper with
which the most odous charges are met, expatiated
on and given to The winds. We transfer the APP
pendix to columns, and respectfully ask for it al
perusal from all who love to calumny reluted,
error corrected, and truth triumphant"

1t has heretofore been Justly remarked that there is
not pleasing exercise of the mind than gratitude
Now, it will be Immediately acknowledged by all those
who have been accustomed to exercise pure and Snteres-
ted gratitude, that such exercise is delightful
but, those who have guiding principle but interest," and
who actuaed alone by seOUe, acknowledge no such
emotons and strangers to the refined of the APP
provements of conscience.
Just debts frequently exist where demand will ever
be made and whether those debts of pecunary ma.
ure, whether their discharge be made, only by
feeling Of gratitude, an exercise OF hospitality by simple
acknowledgement unconfned to any mode form-stl,
whatever be the maner the favor should be requied.
When, instead of single person. 7choIe community
rests under obligation to Public Benefactor then it is
hlt choice virtue developes itself in the unaaiaty of
those who obliged; and, the charge of ngratitude is
rebued, by the simultaneous discharge and performance
of incumbent duty. Suffer then, Delazparans

the heads of any of those who have yet had it in their
