Bman SIR, the TIM at wblrh this declaration
was inadeis very remarkable It preceded the pub
ea.uu Of the modest iyiomatic letter Of rosienn

Ten motive, fingered IA the mind Of the unbought
parlot--no mission 10 London in the vista--but the
noble sacrifice Is magnanlmously offered up on the

very moment when these high-soulcd sentiments
and patriotic professions Were mbushngly thrown
before the world, the individual WHO appropriated
hin TO himself, held the guarantee, that in lieu of
the Office which he resigned he should forthwith be
created Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Pleni-
potentary to the Court of St james, And yet the

other light, thau the result Of systematic course of
political gambling aud intrigue originating in per-
3oHai ambition, und prosecuted with uuraenting
o5racisn and prescription on every high-mndri
