believe his opinion on this subject was notorious
among those who possessed any share oil ms conn
Jence. remember to have heard Mr.. Jefferson,
on one occasion, use an expression, which struck
me. not so much by the sentiment It conta'r"u'
(which, indeed, was then very common one ~
Nirginia,) as the style in which u was maue.-
Speaking of the several candidates Tor the rres' :
dency, before the last election. he remarked 'ha'
g one might as well make sailor OF cock, OF a
soldier OF eoose, as President of Andrew Jack
son." These words made an lndehble lmples-
sion on my memory. They were uttered WIN .
tome of sportive, almost Of contemptuous detlson
Mr.. Jefferson was descanting. at the time when
this remark was elected, on the proneness Of Inc
multitude to give man who possessed one virtue,
credit for others which he did not possess, or Of
the want Of discrimination in the public mind,
where any thing like enthusiasm and tavouritisn
was mingled with a subject. 1t IS due perhaps to
justice and truth, to add that Mr. Jefferson 50 lar
as know, entertained opinions equally unfayorabc
think, in the conversation just alluded to, he
spoke Of him as having been always one thing in
politics, and having undergone no actual change
since the days Of his pupage in the school OF the
elder Adams.
have detailed, as you requested, what rcmem-
Der of the conversation OF which we spoke last
Winter when together. | have repeatedly heard
others speak of Mr.. JeGersons' sentiments on this
subject. | do not recollect to have heard Mr.
Jefferson say any thing in relation to Gen. Jack,
son after the late election, and it is not for me ia
surnise what might have been his opinion, at this
time, were he alive. I must say, in conclusion
that am greved TO lind that the press has stoop-
ell so far below its proper dignity as to use such
unbecoming means to instruct Or convince the pub
lie. Yours, with very great respect,
