Iuisu puuC sthiluinS h1OU u tO Oc FHe we call up
on Mr.. Tazewel to satisfy the people Of the truth
OF a statement, which even at this late day, has
made the blood Of the public run cold. Did not
Gen. Jackson 20 to the Senate chamber to chastise
John w. Eppes, for animadverting his public con-
duct? Was he not restrained alone, by the remon-
strances, and declaration of the Godlike Decatur,
that he should pass over his dead body, to the per-
petration Of his intended outrage? Has not Mr.
Tazewell heard Decatur recount the circumstances,
and has he not himself often recounted them, with
the language and feelings which daring an outrage
ought to inspire?
! The statements made by ..NEsroR" in the Demo-
cratic Press, and repubished in this Gazette last
week. relative to scene between Decatur and Jack
son. before the door of the Senate Chamber, are
pronounced BY writer in the Richmond Wing to
| be s.true beyond doubt" The writer seems a.
ware, however, that unless NEsroR's account be
proved by evidence which cannot be disputed, ma
ny will effect to disbeieve it,; he therefore cal Is up
on LrrrLEroN WALLER TAzwELL and JOHN TYLER,
the present Virginia Senator's for their evidence in
the case These gentlemen were intimate with
Commodore Decatur, have heard him relate the cir
cumsances, and have it fully in their power TO dsa
buse the reputation of General Jackson, it, in any
Essential particular injustice has been done to it.
Should these distinguished men remain silent in
matter SO imperiously demanding their interference
will at least be as good evidence against the Hero
las any that he has yet produced in support of his
charges against Mr.. Clay .4ler. Gazette.

O>.4nother Refutation on!-What charge made
BY the partizans Of Gen. Jackson that has not been
refuted What evidence relied on by them to estab-
lish charge. but has turned out against them What
statement affirmed by them, but has proved upon
investigation, absolutely unfounded, or grossly exag
gerated Another instance Of this reckless menda
city has Just been made public Lying, is reduced
by the Jackson operatives, to perfect system. No
sooner is one told and exposed in quarter of the
Union, than it is succeeded by another in some other
quarter. Their circulation since March, 1925, has
been rapid, unintermtted and tremendous.
Another SANDER is nailed to the counter. Ano-
ther witness cited to prove the bargain, gives ev-
dence of its falsehood, and would call the blush to
the cheek of those who had asserted it, had they not
passed the point of blushing. The :. Western Til
ler," an Ohio paper, stated that Col. Bourne, Re-
cever of the Land Office at Chcothe, declared he
had received letter from Member Of Congress,
shortly before the election, which contained the
'bargain'' in so many words; ma mely: Mr..
Adams has agreed, if placed IN The Presidency by
Nh. C9ay's friends, to make him (Mr. c. Secretary
Of State" To make the statement more impress
sive, it was announced that Col. Bourne son-n-
law of General Macarthur, warm friend Of Mr..
Clay, and who as Representative Of Ohio, voted
for Mr.. Adams. The Inference left for the public
to draw, that General Macarthur had written the
letter, and that coming from quarter so high and
confidential, as to Mr.. Clay, it must be entitled to
implicit confidence. The following from Colonel
Bourne to the Editor Of the Scioto Gazette, puts
down the whole story. Thus has another attempt
at proving the 6 bargain'' failed
/ "When have occasionally engaged in political
discussions the conversation has generally turned
on the principles and practice Of governments. ra-
ther than party politics As I have never been a
party man, in the strict sense of the word. and be-
ing under particular obligations to any party,
. have sometimes freely expressed my opinion o
what believe to be the errors of all parties and
this one of the topics of the conversation which
gave rise to the present controversy
As to the last Presidential election, never did be
lieve, and never said that believed, that there was
lany bargain, purchase, sale or corrupt intrigue be
. tween the friends of Mr.. Clay and the friends 0
Mr.. Adams, and never did, in my own mind, at
ach the least degree Of crimnality to their conduc
in that election. This was distinctly stated in tn
n aforementioned conversation.
n If have ever said, that received, by lette
d from member Of Congress, direct proof OF an un
e derstanding, or agreement between the friends Q
Mr. Clay and the friends Of Mr.. Adams, respectin
: the Presidential election, then have nadvertent
stated that which is not true for have never re
at ceived any such proof" A BOURNE
