name Of tbs W a WICK, this hing killer, aud
king maker; thi, John Randolph. who had set
I'D Presidents, as boys set up nine pins, TO knock
them down again? Such man, the Secretary

THE FOUR ACRES. at distance OF 4,0G0
miles from his own patrim"nlal tleldS ana trees.
The great object of Mr.. Van Buren, has been to
get him out of his way-to send him abroad -
As a minister. he knew he could do nothlng-he
expected-he intended he should DO nothing-de-
serve nothing-receive nothing; but the, rdicue
of all other nations, the pity of his own: and the
contempt of the Secretary himself and his par
tisans.
This heartless politician has, to render this trc-
mendous adversary powerless at home, lured INN
from his Independence. the boast and glory Of
his manhoud to an old age of foreign surveillance;
to come home soded and spattered TO the
very eyes in Treasury dirt; to shrink into retire
mcnt and inslgnifcance; and he like Piso. re-
turned from the inglorious administration OF his
Macedonian province. Shall we, sir. III all ol
these schemes of the Secretary. and TO put han
in a condition of quiet mach'nation against the
laws, the constitution, and the great interests ct
this nation, appropriate this money. and thereby
legalize and sustain this measure? trust i'll God
we shall not. Pay the man, if you please--for
going out, for coming home-send out ship of
war for bin: it will add, perhaps les, than $50,
coo to the expenditure. Let him have his So
600 outft-the President. it has bceu said. adj
vauced it to him from his private purse--restore
it to him; do not suffer ourselves tn be in debt to
the Chief magistrate of the Nation. 1t is all a
baubie, mere chllds whistle, and the people
will, and must pay dearly for this toy of their
Secretary-but let us be rid of it, and of this
State Mission,'' of its memorial if possible q!
ITS deep and Notifying disgrace.
II this course be taken, our relations with Rus
sia may be redeemed, restored, and placed upon
safe and honorable footing. IL no one else will
do it. will move to 90 into Committee of the
| Whole on the State of the Union. for the sole
purpose Of moving an appropriation OF $4,000
for an outfit and $4,000 for first years salary.
to enable the PRESIDENT to send out to Rus
sia an Efficient Mission. and one in all respects
different from this Of the Secretary. For never,
sir. since the revolution, has there been time,
when the interests of the United States more ur-
gently required fair, honorable, and disnifcd
| representation in the Courts of Europe.

mr. Editor-i am constant reader OF your
valuable paper, and was gratihed TO find spread
ont in its columns, on Thursday last, the Me-
mortal of the Directors of the Alexandria Ca
nal Company" to the House of Representatives,
aud the able and disnifed report of a Committee
q of that body on the subject My object though,
in addressing you this note, is not to laud either
the report, or tn discuss the merits Of the appi-
cation. desire information. IF it is in your
possession, YOU will confer favor on the writer,
and many respectable citizens, by communicating
it to them through the Gazette.
Why did not the name of our estimable and
esteemed felow-citIZen, General ALEXANDER
HUNTER, appear with the names of the Direct
ors signed to the memorial? This enquiry has
been made with some solicitude by the friends Ut
this gentleman, and up to this time no reason has
been assigned for the omission OF his name. Can
1t be that he has been remiss in mis- duties? Has
he been inattentive to the interests Of the com
munity. Has he been unfaithfu to the trust re-
posed in him by the Stockholders in this enter
prize? Had lie insurmountable objections to
the Memorial a. adopted. which induced him to
withhold his name fromit? 1t may be that these
questions may be answered in the affirmative;
but | shall continue sceptical, "slOw to be-
heve' these things of one who sustains so inte-
resting character TO the public, intelligent, en-
terprizing and indefatigable, and deservedly a
favori,e with the people. l repeat, Mr.. Editor,

Conclusion of Mr.. Burgess Speech on Mr.. Ea,.
d0iph's Missioa TO Russia

Permit me to offer one other reason WHY this
man could not have been appointed for any nation
al purpose. The peculiarities of his mind render
him iacapable of any public diplomatic service.
The mind. like the fountain. is known by its ef-
fusions. Let me read from one Of his speeches
on Eaecutire Po,cers, as published by him.
(Gales s. Seaton's Register, vol. 2, p S90.)
Having thus, sir. disburthened myself of some
sof the feelings that have been excited by the gal
slant and fearless bearing of the gentleman from
sNorth Carolina. allow me TO 60 on and question
some of his positions.

On Wednesdal. the 9th of January. 1881,
Col. Johnson of Kentucky waited on me in the
Treasury Department., and after some prelimina-
nv conversation, in which he expressed his great
regret that spy family, and that of Mr.. Branch
and MrsBerrien, did not visit Mrs Eaton, he.
said that il had been a subject of great excite-
ment with the President, who had come to the de-
termination of having harmony in his Cabinet by
some accommodation of this matter. He. Col.
Johnson. was the friend of US all, and had now
come at the request of the President to see whe-
Their any thing could be done: who thought that
when our Ladies gave parties they ought to invite
Mrs. Eaton, and as they had never returned her
call, if they would leave the FIRST card, and open
a formal intercourse 10 that way, the President
would be satisfied. but unless something was done
Of this nature, he had no doubt. indeed he knew.
that the President was resolved to have harmo-
nv. and would probably remove Mr.. Branch,
Mr.. Berrien, and myself. replied to Col. john
son. that in all matters of official business. or
having any connection Herewith. l considered
myself bound to maintain an open, frank and
harmonious intercourse will, the gentlemen was
associated with. That the President had right
