MRS. BARNEY'S LETTER TO
PRESIDENT JACKSON.
Baltimore, June 18Th, 1929.

baltimore, June 1911, 1929.
SIR-Your note of the god April, ad-
dressed to me through your private secre-
tary, accompanying the return of my pa
pers, which expresses your "sincere regret
that The rules which you had feh bound to
adopt for The government Of such cases, did
not permit the graft ifcation Of my wishes,"
affords no palliation ofthc injury you have
inflicted on .meritorious officer and his
helpless family. 1t is dark and ambigu-
Gus. Knowing that the possession was
not alone sufficient justification for the
exercise of power; unwilling that your
character for frmncss should suffer by
the imputation of caprice, or that your
reputation for humanity should be tar
nished by an act of wanton cruelty, you
insinuated cause; you hint at binding
rule, and lament that my husband is with
in its operation. Ifit were not unworthy
the character of Gen. Jackson, l ask
you, was it not beneath the dignity of the
president of these United States to insin-
uate, if bold assertion had been in his
power. When you had adopted for your
government this memorable rule, was it not
cruel in you to conceal it from those on
whom it was to operate the most terri
BILE calamities Why should the presi-
dent Of free country be governed by
secret rules? Why should he wrap him
self up in. the black robes of mystery,
and, like volcano, be seen and felt in
his effects, while the secret causes which
work the ruin that surrounds, are hid
within his bosomI Is this rule of which
you speak n law of the land; is it con-
struction drawn from any article of the
constitution, or is it a section of the ar
ticles of war I? Is it rule Of practice,
which, having been acted upon by any
Of your illustrious predecessors, comes
down with the force Of authority upon
you! Did it govern the conduct of that
great man in whose mould according to
your fatterers) you were formed If so,
why should you conceal il, The consti-
tuition and the laws, civil and military,
will Justify you, and all who obey them
and the robes of power which you wear
cannot be stained by an act which finds
precedent in the conduct of any of your
predecessors. Is it any old principle OF
new application in the art of government
which, having escaped the searching
mind OF Washington, and the keen Wis
ion Of succeeding presidents, has been
grasped by your gigantic mind' Or is a
new, wholesome principle patented to you,
and for which you alone are to receive
all the rewards (of glory at least which
succeeding ages never fail to bestow on
the first inventor Of public blessing;

put into small bottle of precisely the
same appearance as the more mischiev-
ous one he had removed. He then re-
turned to - street, walked leisurelyiup-
stairs into the dressing-roo placed the
mixture where he knew it would be
sought for, descended, and took his seat
at the dinner-table as quietly as if moth
ing in the world had happened.
BY eight O'clock the next morning,
Maxwell was in Sir Harry's' room,
which he entered by side-door the bar
onet had neglected to fasten. He found
his friend in profound sleep, from which
he did not awake till three O'clock ofthe
same afternoon. 1t were needless to re-
late all that passed upon this OCCASION
Suffice it, that having explained to Sir
Harry the hopes he entertained Of re-
towering for him a large portion of his
property, Maxwell, found no difficulty
whatever, in persuading him to withdraw
Immediately from London, and to retire
to small place Of his near the town Of
in Wales, till, by the exercise OF
a rigid economy, he might be able to re-
lieve himself from his embarrassments.
That he gay man of the town, should so
readily have adopted a suggestion which
seemed to imply the entire abandonment
Of the habits of his whole former life,
will appear the less extraordinary, when
it is mentioned that he has been heard to
declare, that he would endure starvation
beggary, misery in any shape, rather
than again encounter the horrors Of that
last carouse.

POLITICAL.

The wife of Major Barney late naval
officer at Baltimore, was induced by the
advice Of her friends last spring to visit
Washington, in behalf of her husband,
who it was then feared would be turned
out Of Office for having exercised the
right of freeman, that of manfully and
honestly expressing his political senti-
ments. She carried with her letters and
testimonials of his character from the
Hon. VIM. II. Crawford, Judge Ander-
son, and also from great number of the
most distinguished merchants of Balti-
more, of all parties. After Major Bar
ney was removed, these papers were
called for, and returned to Mrs. B. ac-
companied with the following note, to
which her letter is a reply.
MADAM In answer to your request of
the 18th inst. am desired by the Pres
ident to send to you the letters on the file
in his Office, in relation to the application
of Major Barney to be retained as Naval
officer for the port of Baltimore; and at
the same time, to express his sincere re-
gret that the rules which he had felt
bound to adopt for the government of
such cases, did not permit the gratifica-
ton Of your wishes.
l have the honor to be, with great re-
spect, your Obedient servant.
ANDREW J. DONELSON.
