WASHINGTON, 18th June, 1881.

| SlR:-I received to-day your note Of
last night, in which you call my atten-
ton to an article in the U. S. Telegraph
of the 18th instant, relating to your
wite--and desiring to know whether
will sanction or disavow that statement,
you add, "the relation we have sustain
ed tow Ards each other, authorizes Inc to
demand an immediate answer"
To this inquiry preferred as matter
of right, and presented in the form of Il
demand, my answer must be brief. 1t
consists in the simple denial of the claim
which you assert. | cannot recognize
your right to interrogate me, concerning
the statements of the Telegrsph, or of
any her public journal, which are ma lie
without my agency. You might with
equal propriety select an article from
any newspaper in the Union, for the
purpose Of putting me to the question
and if the claim which you assert be
well founded, | might be required at the
instance of any person aggrieved to
give my confession of faith, in relation
to the various statements to be found in
any of the journals, in which my name
may chance to be mentioned. Such a
demand, therefore, cannot be admitted
for moment But although cannot
recognize your light, either as derived
tanned towards each other, or from any
other source to make the demand pre-
sented by your note, am not quite sure,
looking to the position in which we stand
before the public, that | can acquit my
self to the community or to myself for
declining to answer your inquiry.
In the progress Of those events which
have at length resulted IN the dissolu-
ton Of the Cabinet, my determination
has been not to do any act which was
calculated to provoke controv versy, nor
to deviatc under whatever urgency from
that line of conduct, which my own sense
of proprety prescribed. Acting upon
this determination, have necessarily
pursued course, which a refusal to an
swer your inquiry, might seem to indi-
cate an unwillingness to avow. Such
an inference would be unjust as it re-
CARDS myself, and delusive in relation to
the public. Although therefore | have
the most unaffected reluctance to en-
ter upon such a subject, and certainly
do not acquiesce in your right to de-
mand it, it seems to me that you have
by making the inquiry, imposed upon
me the obligation TO do so from just
consideration of what | owe to myself
and to the public. have then to state
to you, that up to the time of your
marriage, l had not heard the rumors,

motive which prompted this act, l can

returned to this city, had a conversa.
ton with the President, Of which the
prominent points are adverted to in my
letter of resignation which Immediately
followed it, and having brought up the
public business, which was IN arrear,
retired from office.
While these occurrences wore IN pro-
gress, Major Eaton addressed to me Il
letter of like import with his first COM
munication to MIR. Ingham. He called
upon me to sanction or disavow the
statement in the Telegraph, that my
family had refused to associate with
his. answered by detailing the con-
vcrsation which had passed between
myself and Col. Johnson, and stated that
| had subsequently expressed the same
views to the President, who had dis
claimed any disposition 10 press this re-
QUESTION, referring to that which l had
previously stated to have been made
through Colonel Johnson.
The Editor of the Globe has publish
ed this detached sentence of my letter,
and has made an important attempt to
distort its meaning. The public shall
judge Of the whole correspondence for
themselves. | had no disposition to
publish this correspondence. Perfectly
satisfied that it would at all times speak
for itself, and not emulous of reputation
to be acquired in such controversies, |
have resisted the numerous calls which
have been made upon me through DIFF
ferent journals to give it to the public
But the Editor of the Globe is in posses
sion Of it., and by the publication Of an
isolated extract, attempts to do me Injus-
tice. exercise a right, therefore,
which belongs to me, when take from
him, this unfair means of annoyance, by
giving the whole to the public:
FRIDAY NIGHT, 18th June, 1881.
SIR:-I have studied to disregard the
abusive slanders which have arisen
through so debased source as the u.
S. Telegraph. ! have been content to
wait for the full development of what
he had to say, and until persons of re-
sponsible character should be brought
forth to endorse his vile abuse Of me,
and of my family. In that paper Of this
eveEing is contained the following re-
mark of my wife: "It is proven that the
Secretaries of the Treasury and of the
Navy, and of the Attorney General,
refused to associate with her." This
publication appears in a paper which
Processes to be friendly to you, and is
brought forth under your immediate eye.
| desire to know Of you, whether or not
you sanction this statement; or disavow
it. The relation we have sustained to-
wards each other authorizes me to de-
mand an immediate answer.
Very respectfully,
j. II. EATON.

June 23d, 1881.

SIR: l have not had leisure to reply
to your letter ofthe 18th until to day
1t involved matter which it behooved me
to give full and calm consideration to.
That has been given.
l felt indisposed to believe that these
attacks of Gen. Green could be author
lied by you, or were made under your
sanction. Your declaration is evidence
ofthe correctness of what l was before
impressed with. take occasion, there
fore, with pleasure, to acknowledge the
frankness with which you have disavow-
ed an agency in this nefarious business.
Respectfully, your most obedient,

which have since in various forms been
presented to the public, and was igno-
rant Of Mrs. Eaton's relation to the
society Of this place. ! accepted your
invitation to be present at your wedding,
therefore with no distrua of the propre-
ty Of my doing so, other than that
which resulted from my own situation at
that period. You are yourself no doubt
aware how much that event, and your
subsequent introduction into the Cabi-
net, made these rumours the subject OF
conversation. could not longer con-
tinue in ignorance of that which was
publicly and generally spoken of, and il
consequently became necessary for me,
embarrassed as the question was, by the
official relation in which we stood to
each other, to determine upon my future
conduct. In doing this, it did not seem
to me to be necessary, to decide upon
the truth or falsehood of the statements
which were made. 1t was sufficient to
ascertain the general sense of the com
munity of which had recently become
a member; and having done so, to con-
form to it. In the winter of 1880, as |
presume is known to you, l was called
upon by a gentleman, who represented
himself as acting, and who | doubt not
did act, under the authority of the Pre-
sident, to express with precise reference
to this subject the regret which he felt
at the want Of harmony, or of social in
tercourse among the members of his
Cabinet, and to announce his determna-
tlon at any rate to have it. Messrs
lngham and Branch were present at this
interview. The fact was distinctly
stated that they and myself had sue
cessvely given very large parties to
which Mrs. Eaton had not been invited.
We were then told that on such occa-
sions at least the President would ex-
pect in future a social intercourse be-
tween our respective families. There
were various other suggestions made
during this conversation, but the re-
capitulation of them IS not rendered
necessary by your inquiry. l answered
to this communication for myself, that |
would not permit the President, nor any
other individual to regulate the social
intercourse of myself or family-and
that if such requisition was persevered
in, | would retire from the official situa-
ton which held. In the interview to
which | was invited by the President
some few days afterwards, | frankly ex-
pressed to him my views on this sub ject,
and he disclaimed any disposition to
press such requsition. | am not
aware that any other occasion has oc-
Cured in which the question of an in
tercourse between your family and mine
has been presented to me or to my fami-
ly.

Sir: l have received your note Of

sary for me to offer something in reply.

SIR: Your note of yesterday was re-
ceived in the course of the day. Twas
too much indisposed, however, to reply
to it at the moment, and do so now
merely to prevent misconception.
In your note Of the 18th instant you
called upon me to sanction or disavow
the statement contained in a publication
in the Telegraph of that date. l could
not recognize your right to make this
demand, but for the reasons mentioned
in my reply, thought it was proper to
state to you what l had done, in rela-
ton to this matter. To do this was the
only object of that note.
You are quite right, however, in be-
lieving that ! had no agency in procur-
ing the publication of the statement re.
ferred to. And advertng to the spirit
of your last note, have no hesitation in
thus confirming the conviction which
YOU have expressed.
