No where has Gen. jackson met with more
malignant and determined set of enemies than in
ms own state. No splendid achievements which
he has performed for the nation no glory which he
mas reflected on Tennessee, have been able to pro-
Pia'e tne small and desperate band, who are jea-
! ious oil his fame, or stimulated bv their private
griefS. Armstrong and Erwin have almost ex-
hausted their quivers upon him; and one Boyd Nc
! VARY the President OF the Nashville Bank has
slept forth as the auxiliary OF their cause. He
pleads self defence; the necessity OF repelng A.
buse " II they wish to be silent let them
cease Says he) to assal me-" But who assaii.d
Dr McNairy when he entered the field as a yo-
iunteer against Mr.. Moore OF Kentucky? With
all his articles, he cannot disguise the holv hate'
ne entertains against Jackson, or his unbounded de-
vohon to MIR. Clay. 1t is these causes which have
hurried him so far beyond the bounds of retulat-
, on 1t Is these, which impeed him. after having
made an unjust and elaborate assault upon General
jackson on the slave dealing charge, to throw out

lhe statements which were made in our last
paper snpersede the necessity of Offering any very
cTinca commentaries on these notes. They were
written at a time when Cen Jackson was Iat,orino
under the same mistakes which had mislsd so ma.
ny othls countrymen. Boyd McNairy glibIy talks
oi treason, and conspiracy to sever the Union
Jackson had no such intentions himself nor had me
suspicious OF Burr's having any, at the time when
ne Penned the preceding letters. He was pcrsuaL-
ca uiat Burr was acting under the sanction of his
government; and that he promoting, instead of
opposing its views. The state Of our relations
WIN spain; the angry attitude which the Ameri-
can anu spanish troops preserved upon the Sa-
oIne- a Spanish war always popular in the Wes-
'efh country and finally the exhibition of forp-
ca commission from MIR Jefferson, were all calct.
iatcd TO inislead him. The particulars of this
transaction were not kept secret by Jackson and
ms trends. They were spread upon the records |
oil the Court OF Adams county as tar back rs the
year 1913 His bograpler had reduced them to |
writing and offered to throw them into the news !
papers IN May last long before Mr. Boyd Nc !
Nary was preparing TO indulge the venom of bis
spleen"
