We publish to day Gen. JAcxsoN's letter to
Mr.. SwARTwour of New-York, together with
the latter gentleman's note to the editor of
the New-York National Advocate. 1t was
our intention to have added some remarks, but
the quantity of interesting matter, foreign and
domestic, by last evenings mail, has induced
us to postpone them to a more convenient
time.
To the Editor of the ~ Y. National .4drucate
NEw-YoRK, March 4.
Sir,-The following letter was re-
ceived by me few days since, and al
though private communication, and
not intended for the public eye, yet it
contains so just an exposition of the
enlightened views, and noble conduct
of its distinguished author, that can
not forbear soliciting its publication in
your valuable paper.
This letter will be read with the
deepest interest by the American peo-
pie. 1t breathes the language of the
purest patriotism, Of the most perfect
devotion to the rights, the interests,
and the republican institutions of our
country. 1t is manly, temperate, but
convincing vindication of the charac-
ter and public services of one of the
greatest men and purest patriots that
this, or any other country, has ever
produced.
The PEOPLE are the sovereigns of
this country. They have established,
by their blood and treasure, a govern
ment founded in knowledge and virtue,
which has for its basis the representa-
the system. How far Gen. Jackson, in
his public career, has acknowledged
and respected its maxims and princi-
piles, let the actions of his past life, and
his pure and unsullied conduct, during
the recent election, testify.
If the people are interested in what
ever relates to the conduct of their civil
rulers, they are equally concerned for
the reputation of one of their brightest
ornaments in war-one of their strong
est advocates in peace. One, who has
never drawn his sword but to add lau-
rels to his country, nor his pen but to
illustrate the value of her happy insti-
tutions. SAM'L SWARTWOUT.
