From the National Journal.

In remarking some days ago upon para
graph which was "going the rounds" OF the
Combination presses, and which purported 10
be an extract of letter from Mr.. Adams TO
Levitt Harris, written while the latter was U.
States Consul at St. Petersburg, we ventured,
from our confidence IN the sincerity and purity
of Nr. Adams's American feelings,'to express
our belief that the extract did not fairly repre-
sent the general tenor Of the communication;
and that the letter was designedly mutilated
and garbled, for the purpose OF misleading the
public as to the real sentiments OF Mr.. Adams,
in relation to the late war with Great Britain
We called upon the editor who had been guilty
of this base political device publish the ,shole
