ed To the opinpAs OF those iii whose judgments
had confidence, and - nay sense OF what was
due to the interest of Georgia, at that particular
juncture.
My remembrance of this conversation is more
over confirmed by recollection of what occurred
on my subsequent interview with the President, in
which particular reference was made to it. When
he spoke OF combination between Messrs. Ing
ham and Branch and myself, to exclude Mrs. T.
from society, 1 claimed, matter of right to
know the names of the persons by whom such
representation had been made. He said the impress
sion had been derived from the various ramors
which had reached him; spoke of the parties which
had been given by those gentlemen and myself, to
which Mrs. L. had not been invitod-and added that
the reports against her wero foul caamnies. re.
monstrated against his having adopted an opin-
ion dshonorable to any member Of his Cabinet on
mere rumor, but expressly declined to discuss the
question of the truth or falsohood of the reports
which he had reterred-tclling him, that, without
undertaking to decide whether they wero true or
tulse 1t was my purpose merely to conform to the
general sense of the community of which had
become Il member; and that could not be induced
to change that determination. The decision of the
President not to pursue this matter further, I'M
derstood at the time to have been produced by the
representatives of some of his most intimate per-
sonal friends.
Such is my understanding of the conversation
referred to III your letter. look to it as the ory;n

 Czurch and Stotc. --The constitution Ial charter of France has wisely sepa- rated religion, as an establishment, from ! the State. This is an example which lothernations must, sooner orlater, adopt. It is necessary for the interests of reii- givr, itself, which is injured aid degrad- ed when allied with political machinery.
 No religion ought to be encouraged
 which cannot stand of itself; if it re- quire the prop of human laws, it can
 not be true religion. It must be
 nothing more than a pretext for patron. iagc,a secular institution created by men for their own worldly purposes, and a
 continued insult to the Deity. The re- ligion which has power to attract and fix mems minds, will exercise that pow CT without the assistance of legislators,
 and will be infinitely better cultivated If left to its course. The poorer the
 ministers of the gospel are, the better they will instruct the rich, the better at tend to the spiritual wants of their nee- dy fellow-creatures. This is subject upon which England has much to learn, and will not have little to do. But the day for the business has not yet ar
 rived, though we can perceive the faint gleaming of its dawn.
