n em Tork Correspondence.

New York, Dec. 2s 1912.
The letter Of Mr.. John j. Crittenden to the edi
tors of the National Iniegencer, in reply to Mr.
Spencers letter to the citizens of Rochester of the
10Th of October, reached here yesterday
1t is regarded a plain matter-offact production
in which Mr.. Crttenden asserts nothing but his igno-
rance of the facts detailed by Mr. Spencer and his
absence from certain Cabinet meetings at which pro-
positions said 10 be made for the purpose of ef
fecting certain personal objects of "place and am
bition"
MIR. Crittenden will neither gain nor lose any thing
by the letter; and he simply states what no man
need doubt, that he did beg to be retained by
Mr. Tyler, cannot for the life of me perceive why
it was that he called in bad witness as Mr. Tho
mas Ewing. Here Mr.. Ewing has no friends-,here
is no, soul in the city, verify believe who would
or will believe any thing he may utter. Mr.. Crit
tenden ought to be ashamed Of himself for being
found in such company.
Mr.. Ewing's thrust at the President and Mr. Cush-
ing, is laughed at by every body. 1t is too late in
the day for Master Ewing to hope that he can iniurc
Mr. Tyler. He is discredited on all sides as he was
at tie time he made his first attack on the President
and so little is thought of any thing and every thing
that comes from him, that there but few Of the
Wing editors that will republish the balderdash he
writes.
MIR. Ewing may be, and doubt not is an adept in
the business of killing and haying porkers but he
is sadly out Of place when he sets himself up
as the moral butcher Of his own species He is " i'm
potent exactly" and though he may be v,ry nsoent
and mpudent his gasconade is regarded as the yelp-
ing of full grown, but very badly trained mastif
As yet, but one of the Wing papers of the city has
noticed the Crittenden and Ewing letters. That one
is the Express; and IFS editors, probably ashamed of
them, placed them their first page, but did no,
even refer to them. The .7merican Of this evening
may, and probably WILL republish the letters because
Ewing abuses the President.
Gov. Davis, of Massachusetts, in refusing to COM
ply with the requlsitiou of the Governor Of Virginia
for the slave Latimer, has abundantly proved to the
Wing, Of the South, that he was very sincere In the
The daily Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1841-1845, 1842-12-31

/. That John Tyler is Vice President Of the
Usited States, and President ty succesSiOn &C
cording 10 the forms of the Constitution, and
moi by election
r. That his retired Cabinet, BY The comics
sion OF Thomas Ewing-,he ready witness
touching ali matters of Cabinet eonsulialIoD-
when the President submitted 10 Them 70 say
whether he should accompany has second Veto
Message with declaration that he would no
be candidate ior the Presidency upon the eHpi-
ration Of General Hanisoais term, advised him
strenuousiy agsins, so doing, as neither being
properly denandable OF MIN, nor likely to be
productive OF any public good
That this same Thoma. Ewing, and others
equally crilsinzl, have dared, before the Aneri-
can People, 10 accuse the President with ambi-
tious and corrupt motives, notwithstanding The
foregoing fsct-and although IL Is now uniTer-
sally admitted, that 30 tar iron desiring 10 be
driven TO the Veto, be resored TO every expedi-
ent compatible with honor, and due regard 10
the station which he filed, 10 order 10 avoid H.
use-and urged, s,renuously and unceasingly,
posiponement OF the Bank bill.
4. And let il be kept distinctly before the
People thai two conditions Of each postpone.
ment, as appeared by the statement OF Thomas
Ewing himself, were presented as conditions on
which said postponement should take place
i. THAT the President uould gire an assur-
ance that no hostile more rould be made
meaning that the Cabinet should remain I'M
changed-and that being rejected, 2. That he
shonld ark IL as personal fdror-and thai,
a. berame the Chief Magistrate Of free Peo-
pie, both propositions were rejected with scorn
and contempt.
S. Let il also be continually borne in mind
that Congress, having resolved TO adjourn Oh
Monday, five members Of the Cabinet resigned
their places on Saturday, thus devoving the
duty on the President Of forming new Cabi-
net in halfa day-or Of administering the Coy
eminent without Cabinet at ala measure
disorganiziRg and dangerous, and intended
greatly TO embarass the Administration, if moi
TO force resignation Of the President.
Let these things be kept before the People,
and let judgment be pronounced.

PRIVILEGED QUESTION.
MIR. SPRlGG rose to a privileged question He
stated that letter. not report, had been addressed
to the Speaker OF the House by the Fifth Auditor Of
the Treasury making reflections some remarks de-
liyered by hum on former occasion with regard to
the jurisdiction Of the soil on which certain light
houses of the United States have been erected con-
tracts, and ohr matters connected with the subject
IL officers of the Government were allowed 10 in
trude the House reflections on members because
Of certain remarks which they might make upon the
floor and these reflections, imbodied in letters were
to constitute part Of the public documents the pow
or OF the House would be weakened. He looked up
this letter from the Fifth Auditor as gros, insult,
Even if he (Mr. Sprigg) did make an improper re-
Election on the Treasury Department he knew yery
well that If the Speaker had known the character of
the letter he would have laid il before the House
And he made solemn appeal whether this letter
should be made part Of the documents Of this House;
for such papers were calculated TO place members in
doubtful positions From the President down. reaec-
tons had been cast upon this House The Office of
Fifth Auditor ought not to exist it was fifth wheel
any how and all that il had done was to make bad
contracts on the part OF the Treasury and Of the
United States.
MIR. HOPKINS said that it struck him the letter
should not be placed on the files Of the House as il
was not a public document. If the writer of the
communication had had any cause for complaint, the
luohc press was open to him and the remarks o.!
the gentlem from Kentucky found their way to he
public eye through this medium. Injustice would be
done to every member, if this letter were permitted
TO be placed file lie submitted, there FORE in
the hope that he would be sustained, that the Clerk
strike from the Journ of the House the document
IN question, and that the original paper be returned
