THE LATE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
 Letter from General JACKSON to Mir c. BEVERLY.
 HERMITAGE, June 9th, 1897.
 DEAR SIR Your letter of the 18th ut.
 from Louisville, Ky. is just received, and in
 conformity with your request,address my an- swer to Wheeling, Va.
 Your inquiries relative to the proposition of
 bargain made through MT. Clay's friends to
 some of mine, concerning the then pending
 presidential election, were answered freely
 and frankly at the time, hut without any cal
 culation that they were to be thrown into the
 public journals--But facts cannot be altered -and as your letter seems not to have been
 written for publication, can assure you, that having no concealment myself, nor any dread arising from what may have said on the oc- casion and subject alluded to, my feelings to- wards you are not in the least changed. I aL ways intended, should MT. Clay come out o. yer hi& own name and deny having any knowledge of the communication made by his frient to my friends and to me, that l would give him the name of gentleman through wE om that communication came. have not seeI your letter alluded to,as having been published in the Telegraph, although that paper, as I am informed, is regularly mailed for me at Washingt' n, still Irecieve 1t and that containing your letter has not yet come to hand, of course cannot say whether your statement is substantially correct or not--I will repeat, however, again the occurrence, ,afd to which my reply to you must have contormeG. aud from which, if there ..us i1een any varis tion, you can correct it. It is this. Early in January 1825,a mem Der of Congress of high N'spssctahiIity, visited me one morning, and observed, that he had communication he was des'rous 10 make to me-that he was informed there was a great intrigue going on; and that it was right that l should be informed of it-tlat he srame as friend-and let me receive the coLnmunica- ton as l might, the friendly motives through which it was made, he hoped would lTevent any change of friendship or feeling with re- gard to him. Towhich replied, from his high standing as a gentleman, and member of Congress, and from his uniform friendly, and gentlemanly conduct towards myself !

by testimony apparently of loose and uncGr- tain desciption-nor is it for us to say, what kind or quantity of evidence, might be suGi- cient to produce an irresistible conclusion in the mind of the general, that great political rival would descend to use the basest means for the promotion of his own ambitious pur- poses. The letter speaks for itself, and we recommend an attentive perusal of it to our readers, as it will certainly lead tO a course of inquiry attended with. important results

 His public and private character has been as- saulted in every shape which it was possible for political animosity to suggest. He has withstood the storm of the most violent and merciless persecution-frm and undaunted, has he braved its fury-and we feel perfect security in our belief that he will come out uninjured by this threatening blast from the pretended tranquil region of the Hermit age"
 The advocates of MT. Clay, notwithstand- ing their enthusiastic devotion to him and his cause, and their present implicit beliefin the rectitude and purity of his principles, howev- CT painful may be the sacrifice, are neverthe- less prepared to yield him up to public indig- nation and scorn, if Gen. Jackson, or his po- htical associates shall convict him of bargain, intrigue, and corruption.- ask but the same measure of justice to be dealt out to his accnsers, if they should fail in their proof ofthe charges-if nothing should be found to authorize their assertions, letthem be visited with the infamy and contempt which. the C. n0rmity of their islander merits from an in suited and outraged community. Mir. Clay's friends are willing to abide the issue of the investigation which will undoubtedly be insti- tuted by the production of this letter from Gen. Jackson. It is not our purpose to ex- press an opinion at this time,as to the motives which may have actuated Gen. Jackson Tn propagating statements so derOgatory to the public character ofMr. Clay. and sustained
