simply in contingencies. Under the influence ofthis

SIR,
In reply to your letter of the 23d, re.
guessing to be informed whether Cover
nor Edwards declared to me, before his
nomination as Minister to Mexico, that
he was not the author OF the publications
signed A. B. on which eclaration, it is
said his nomination was founded, feel
il due TO candor~ to assure you that he
never made to me any such declaration,
and that his nomina ion was not influence
ed, in the slightest degree, by any con-
siderations connected with those publ.
cations. II was founded, solely, on the
usual considerations that, that quarter of
the Union IN which he resided had claims
10 an appointme nt, and that he was be-
ieved to be as well qualified for that of.
fce, as any person in that quarter who
had been brought to the view OF the Ex-
ecutive.
