ia the senate, IN The same manner that kremer
and others did it in the House, and his gross
and wanton violations Of all order and decorum,
and his disregard o f every thing like courtesy
or decency in language, degraded the character
of that body, in manner never known before
In this way he laid them under obligations to
him, which, when they came in power, they
were conscious must be cancelled, or they
would, in their turn, be made the subjects of
his reckless denunciation. This was the more
to be feared, because, he had been backed by
them in his course. his character had been boIs
tered up by them, and they had represented him
TO The people, as an oracle in whose words i'm
plicit reliance was to be placed. If, then, he
should turn against them, how could they gain
say him, when thus supported by their own
recommendation. and with certificates Of char
acter endorsed by them1
Something, therefore, must be done. and it
was determined to get rid of him, by sending
him out of the country, if possible. So Gen
Jackson, and s. the willy DntGhman," as his Sec
zetary is aptly called, sat down and wrote, en-
treating him, although in his dotage, to accept

refused him by Jefferson, and which, no admin
istraton, till the present, would entruyi to him,
even when in the prime of life and health, and
in the full vigor of his mental faculties To make
way for him, mos: faithful and valuable min
lister was recalled, the national treasury was
taxed $4,000 for an extra outfit. besides the ex-
pense of sending public armed ship to convey
the new minister to Russia, which, probably,
cost not less than $4,000 or $4,000 more. And
what has been the result Of this profuse expen-
diture? just what every reasonable person
might have expected; the loss Of the money,
and the bringing Of disgrace upon the country
and upon the administration, if, indeed, any
thing of the kind can add disgrace to such an
administration.

dolph's conduct. But they make sad work of
it. Some of them affect to discredt the ac-
counts which have been received, while, at the
same time, they make admissions which shew
that they know them to be true They say
that his health was so much impaired by the
voyage, that "the etiquette Of the Russian
court was irksome TO him." And so, because
it was irksOme, he vented his spleen in the I'M
seemly manner which has been already report
ed the accounts Of which come from so many
different sources, through SO many different
channels, and are so far confirmed by the arri-
val of Randolph in England, and of his servant
Juba with his baggage here, as not to leave
shadow of doubt of their truth. The Boston
Statesman and Washington Telegraph account
for his leaving ST, Petersburg in very differ
ent manners. One says "the intense heat of
the Russian Summer" affected his health so
unfavorably that he was obliged to leave; while
the other attributes his leaving, to his inability
TO endure I" the rigors Of Russian Winter"
1t probably was owing to neither. The admin
istration did not expect him to continue there
long, for the Telegraph expressly admits that
he had leave of the President, before he left
home, to spend the winter in the south of Eu-
rope.
