JOHN A. KINGS ACCOUNT.

We have several times alluded to an inc iieni,
which we now conceive it to be our duty 10 state
explicitly. that the people may understand the
manner in which affairs are managed at WASH
ing'on No sooner did Mr.. Clay learn that MIR.
Blair had introduced his resolution, calling for
John "A Kings account, than he flew into vio-
lent rage, and declared that the Clek who had
disclosed the fac should be dismissed.
IL Is unnecessary for us TO say, that most of
Inc Clerks are poor, many of them have families;
ana all, win scarce an exception, dependent
upon their salaries for their daily bread. Dis
inissai, to most, would be disgrace and ruin. De.
'eiTined 10 MIKE item feel his power, Mr.. Clay
called them before him; and having caused his own
particular department TO purge themselves of the
heihous offence oil spcaking this subject he then
Caused an l. QUESTION TO be held in other offices,

has noi been fen by the " palace suards,'' since
me biadensburg races, will there be more
alarm in the " iohite house, on the eve oil the
AIN OF March, 1929, than was spread through the
list Of suf s9ted Clerks.

eiai pIonists, never ia offend in this particular
several have called the g Heir Apparen,," at
MS own room, 10 proies, their innocence and re-
move suspicious.
We contrast this conduct by the statement, of a
tact. When Mr.. Calhoun was. Secretary of War.
one o! his CeiS was in the habit of coulaiunica-.
ting with menbtr OF Congress about the bust =
ness OF The department; in consequence Of which,
several calls ere made
iiend sf the Secretary called TO see hin,
and mentioned The fact; and said that he knew the
name OF The Clerk. Ii you do, said MIR. Calhoun,
do not desire to know it; the dulles OF my de-
par'meni are various and difficult; but, as a SER
want OF 'e public, my whole coadIct is subject 10
