General Jaekssa's Leffer. Under its proper
head will be found another letter from general
Jackson concerning the execution Ut the Mili-
tiamen, during the late war. To the rehec
tion OF our readers we leave the TACT OF such a
letter having been written into a district 10
Kentucky 10 order to answer its purposes IN a
closely contested election, and TO them we
leave the consideration of other circumstances
that conf rct with previous letters OF 1.-THE gene
raj. which condemn 10 others any such paru'
cipaiion 10 defence Of themselves or accusation
Of others.
we have only one observation 20 make in
reference to the letter, which IS upon The part
ofit wherein the general says that the record,
Ia regard to the mllitia-men, either IS or ought
a. h. an file in the Department of War. The
fart. we believe, has been ascertained that the
record Of the trial is not in the Department OF
War. and the friends OF general Jackson know
tha, /, Is not. Tney perhaps do not Know what
we now state-that the record WAS transmitted
IN the War Department at the time, but was
returned by order Of the then president VINO
nrobahlv aid not much like the complexion OF
~ to the state OF Tennessee, and we oeiieVe 10
The governor Of the State, under whose ordrf
,he draGt az militia was made Mr. Madison 10
ore who. we have good authority for saying,
could moi look on blood and carnage with com
pnsufe. and who could not, OF course approve
Of Ina slaughter, in cold blood, of militia men,
whose only crime, ut the worst, was a mistake
of Their duty. lie therefore, probably declined
p,scing among the national archives the record
ofthose proceedings. Certain II is, that they
were returned to Tennessee, and are IN pos
session of the friends Of Geo. jackson though
possibly unknown to hIm. =.
One word as to the letter of Harris, publish
ed in the Philadelphia Democratic Press, about
the alledged forgery OF which there has been
much said. The letter we always supposed to
be an effort of Imagination, Intended TO einbo.
dy in form " hat might have been the natural
reflections OF the Baptist preacher on being or
dered to be shot. Some Of our contemporaries
have put a very serious construction upon the
composition For ourselves, we have not been
able 50 10 regard it. This Mr., Harris, we learn
from general Jackson, did write a letter TO bun
before his execution, which letter did not
move the general from his purpose. The Let
ter, If be in existence. would at once settle
the question, whether the fictitious image OF
il, as committed to paper in Philadelphia.
bears any resemblance of the original. we
should like to see the original letter. And, tho
we have not copied the supposltitious letter, 1t
appears to MS to be rank aftectatIon in any one
to suppose that its being of that character wea-
kens its force as an argument against the mill
tsry execution which it depreeaSes.
