particularly while the latter was acting
as Governor of Indiana, were of the
most courteous character, and we con-
fess it would have sounded strange. af-
ter what then transpired, had the Ex-
President suffered himself to be made
a party to the abuse heaped upon the
veteran Hero of Tippecanoe by the
leading friends ofthe Administration in
Tennessee. .
Thus it will be seen that neither of
the Opposition papers in Nashville
have afforded the slightest pretext for
the assertion that Gen. Jackson has
been "compelled'' 10 publish this letter
in self defence. The Banner had mot
so much as alluded to the subject,
while this journal had distinctly admit
ed that he was opposed to Gen. Harri-
sons election! Gen. Jackson, himself,
does not pretend that the opposition
papers, here, even so much as inhu-
enced his course in reference II this
matter. On the contrary he sets out
with the specific declaration that the
s'naany letters" addressed to him from
various sections Of the Union, seemed
to render it proper that be should take
SEINE step 10 undeceive his friends.

against you, as it is certainly against
the Wings Of Virginia, at whom it is
especially levelled; and if made by an
anonymous scribbler in a newspaper,
might be passed by with contempt.
But as the charge is now put forth in
an imposing form, and the subject of
Abolitionism is one Of absorbing inter-
est and paramount importance-and
as | could not, and as l am sure the
Wings of Virginia, and the South gen
orally, would not vote for any Adolf
ZIONIST living, to be President of the Z.
States; (sooner than they would for
Florida Indian,) and as /; have been
placed before the people of this State
for the office Of EIector upon the Wing
Ticket, | have thought it due to you,
to the Wing cause, and TO myself, to
ask you TO furnish, under your own
hand, your denial of the charge, in a
letter to me, which | may publish.
l beg leave to say, that the denial
which | expect will, in my opinion,
advance your cause with all good and
rejecting men through the land; but
whether it will advance or iniure it, it
is equally due TO yourself and TO us,
that you should furnish it, as | am sat
is6ed that you would be as unwilling
to advance that cause by any fraud, as
we should be to be made the instru-
ments apparently, or dupes oft. Be
pleased, therefore, to say to me, wheth-
er you entertain the sentiments upon
the subject of Abolitionism as ex-
pressed in your speech at Vincennes,
in 1885; whether ever you were a
member of an Abolition Society in
Virginia, and whether you have desig-
mated the Richmond Society as an
Abolition Society; and what was your
political connection, if any, with the
old Federal party.
With great respect,
| am, sir, your friend, &c.

which | can still hardly believe, (for [
have not been able to see the paper

Of the District in 1922 it must have

At any rate, the word Abolition was
not understood to mean in 1922, what
it now means. There can be no doubt
that the society of which Mr.. Tarlon

a rank not inferior to that Of Mr.. JEFF
ferson or Madison as patriot and
statesman.
With such opinions of the present
Chief Magistrate and of the measures
TO which he has given his sanction
opinions which [ have never failed to
express when I have had occasion to
speak on the subiect-it is surprising
how any one could take up the idea
that my confidence in him had been
impaired, or that had become indiffer-
ent as to the choice to be made at the
next election between him and Gen.
Harrison. Looking upon the latter
gentleman as misrepresentation of Fed
eral principles in the present contest,
and knowing that he has never been
identified with the Republican party in
any of It's great struggles against the
influences which have been calculated
TO take power from the people and the
States and give il to the General Gov
eminent, to suppose that.I would for a
moment think Of giving my support to
such an individual as candidate for
the Presidency would be mockery Of
all public principle.
In respect to the statements which
nave been made in several ofthe news
papers of the day that | disagree with
many of my political friends in the es-
innate they have formed Of Gen. Har-
rison's military merits, [ am not aware
ofhaving said any thing to justify them
Having never admired Gen. Harrison
as military man, or considered hin
as possessing the qualities which con
stitute the commander Of an army,
have looked at his political relations
alone in the opinions have formed o
expressed respecting his pretentions t
the presidency, and the consequence
which would result to the country
should the sufrages ofthe people plac'
him IN that hiob office.

GEN. JACKSoNIN THE FELL


The Union of this morning contains
the following extraordinary production
with the name of fndrew Jackson APP
pended to it:
HERM1rAeE, June %, 1910.
To The Editor ofthc Nashville Union
SIR-From the many letters which
have been recently addressed TO me
asking for an expression Of my views
relative to the leading measures ofthe
present administration of the General
Government, some of which are from
we'll known and respectable sources,
representing that efforts are made in
various quarters of the Union to incite
belief in the public mind that my
confidence inthe present Chief Magis-
trate has been impaired, it seems to be
proper thatsome steps shouldbe taken
by me to undeceive those who are thus
imposed upon. For this purpose, sir,
[ beg the favor you to give aplace
in your columns to this note which
trust will be as acceptable to those who
have written to me on the subject as
direct answer in the form of letter
would be.
From whatever cause; or on what
ever authority, statements may be
made representing me as having chang
ed my views of the leading measure;
of the present administration, they arr
unfounded and unjust. Ofthe wisdom
and importance of these measures, ant
particularly of that which aims at tn
establishment by Congress of a fsca
agency for the Government without
use or aid of banks, time and the full
est opportunity for reflection have let
not a doubt on my mind. And tf
!, ability which Mr.. Van Buren, has mani
tested in developing the bearing OF til
j great question, and of its antagonl'
: one, on the free institutions OF OF
: country, and the frmness he has dl'
! PLAYED in holding on to the true lnte
: ests Of the people when there has bee
: so much temptation to compromli
: them, entitle him in my judgement

Utmost Incrediblc.-Wec can scarce
ly give credit to such chain of violent
acts as recorded in the following from
the n. o. Bulletin of Tuesday, the
23rd inst
Doings IN Fort Adams.-Accor-
ding to letter received by a gentle
man of this city, the following notable
events have taken place in Fort Adj
ams.-On Sunday evening last. one
man shot another's dog. During the
same evening, the report of two guns
was heard-thedog-killer and the own
er Of the dog had shot at each other
and the dog-killer had received dose
of small shot, and was supposed TO be
killed. The murderer was arrested,
tried, and sentenced to jail in Wood
vile. He escaped from the officers
and refused to be re-taken-swore the
judgement of the Court was unjust,
that he would kill the justice, and
then finally deliver himself up. The
Justice, on hearing this, went to the
house of the culprit with a double
barreIled gun, and shot him dead on
the spot. He then went to WoodVille
submitted to judicial examination, on
| his own confession, and was acquitted.
He then returned to Fort Adams, and
| TO his great establishment, found that
the murdered men las was supposedly
!. were not dead, but were getting well,
and that no great harm had been done.

since, the citizens of Natchez were
somewhat excited by a foot race thro'
some part of the city, the fugitive be-
ing a professor of the sublime art of
Heel accomplishments and the pursuer
staunch to his purpose as grim death
to negro, being one of our worthy
constables. The piroete and pigeon
wing maker labored under suspicious
of want Of honesty, and had been or
dered to find bail for his appearance
at Court in the sum of 5000. anxious
to keep the leader Of the haut tn in
Natchez, from so Indifferent and Sul-
gar a place as the county Jail, the gen
erous-hearted constable spent some of
tie afternoon in going from place TO
place, through the city with his prison
er striving to get bail; but, alas!-
The more the bail they sought,
The less the bail they got,
The shades of the night were fast
approaching. The sun was going to
bed; and SO must the prisoner 60 TO
jail. As they had often called during
the afternoon to get something to mois-
ten their clay, the officer of law readily
permitted the prisoner to go into a
store to get a drink of water, when he
rushed out of back door, chassacd
down an alley, baIlencee 10 dray, Ia
dies chain with three dogs and a slut,
dorm the middle of the next street,
crossed oUer intending to turn has part
ner by a perfect gallopade, entirely
negleciing the rules of the cotitti0n, or
the languishing graces of the arait1.
The pursuing constable being convin-
ced that he stood no chance of fgur-
ing to advantage Though the streets
with one who had cultivated his heels
! so dexterously, hoarsely called out
'sStop CT! or by Julius Cesar I'll
: shoot you down." This threat, by the
+, way, would certainly have been put il
execution, as the pursuer had in hi
pocket, copy of the Free Trader,
, large piece of junk tobacco, four Sc
CARS and four of the protested "raiLs.'
