"SIR-Your allusion 10 the tariff in your
speech, relative to our public lands, reminds
me Of conversation | had with enc of the
great political characters in London, 10 the
month of September last, which was as FOL
lows:
Ny friend was very DESTROYS Of having my
opinion respecting the affairs of this country.
stated to him that the natural resources OF
this great country, were lnexhaustIble; that
the tariff of 1924 had brought some of those
dormant resources into use, Whine the reven-
ues arising, principally fropa imposts, had en-
abled the government to pay more than thur
~ millions of the public debt, exclusive of
large advices for internal improvements; that
if we enjoy peace, and our government con.
tinue to encourage the industry, of the ceun
try, as believe it viii, it is my decided O.
piaion that the United States will soon be the
most wealthy, powerful, and independent
nation in the world. My fieDd admitted all
| said to be true "But.n said he, "if we
were not so much perfhexed with our finan-
ces at home, ,re could soon put stop TO The
rising greatness and prosperity Of the United
States" "And howp" said 4. "Why," said
he, 's,oe scould iastigate the southsra states 10
rebel against the othsr states, zoe sooutd con-
ciace the people Of the cotton gro,ctng states
that your tariff Expresses them, and zoe acould
offer ttem such protection, and such CONNER
cial advantages as woutd induce them to rebel,
aud IN less thar, foe yesss zoe Vouid produce a
separation Of The Union"
But" said I, probably you would be
disappointed; you know you calculated on
"a Il. Of
war, but you were disappointed and probably
you would be disappointed again" NO."
seid he, sue kno,e better holo 10 manage these
matters; we could with our fleets protect
them, and our merchants would take their
produce and carry 10 them manufactured ar
tclts, duty free, for their own use.
and for the purpose Of smuggling into
other states, and thus, by these and
other means, (Which ] understood to be a
liberal application Of secret service money!
we would soon put a stop TO the increasing
wealth, power, and independence OF your
country"
.lnother CorTespondencei--lt is SAID that
there has been ANOTHER coRREsPoNDENcE
between Gen. jackson and Mr.. Calhoun,
which has again resulted ia the complete win
.dication of Mr.. Calhoun. The report is that
the President, feeling sore at tue situation 10
which lac was placed by the publication of the
first correspondence, directed ceriaei inter-
rogatories 10 Gen. Iacock, relative to the
Seminole War business, which lac hfst en-
closed to Mr.. Calhoun 10 give hiin an oppor
tunity of adding any farther interrogatones
he might think proper TO gBcr. Gen t-acock,
it will be recoilected, was instrumental m
procuring an investigation Of Gen Jacksoe's
conduct MIR. Calhoun Is farther said to have
| replied Indignantly to this renewed effort to
engage him in a controversy. The interro-
gatories are said however to have been SENT
aad Gen. Lscock to have returned for answer,
that SO far from MIR Calhoun's having assis
ted in attempting to injure Gen jackson, for
| bis conduct during the Seminole War, that
lie was instrumental 10 shielding him from
rebuke and censure, and that Mr.. Forsyth
was The prime mover m the whole business.
We should be glad to know further parti-
,cuLars relative to this correspondence, and if
what we have above stated Is corIect.-.4ser
Gag.
We should not be at all surprised should
MIR. Calhoun be made candidate for the
Presidency: not with his own consent for he
has already positively refused to permit him
self to be nominated But he has numerous
friends in the South. who cannot, will not,
vote for General Jackson, and they may vote
for him Notwithstanding. In this case South
Carolina gives him her electoral vote. d.
Eetyuct of a letter 10 the editor Of the dieran
dria Ga-ette from Washington .-"lhe Great
Republican Party" personiiied and emhodi-
ed ia the coEporeal frame Of the Tx Minister
and Tx Secretary, is now safely lodged at
the White House. To be sure its arrival was
| not greeted by the roar Of cannon, the wav

| no tongue can express the tcelnath OF its re
ception at the Presidents, The door open

There was stiffness as Of death,
And the baldcst held his breath

The Cabinet proper and improper stood a
round. The Eek frc,Isier entcrrd--the Great
