CaSx.
WASHINGTON. June |.


A sketch of the life of Gen. Cass. which was
prepared and widely circulated before the meeting
of the Baltimore Convention, has been adopted by
the Union and the affiliated press, and is now
spread broadcast through the country. Though
it is related with particular JUNCTION, that he was
favored with the patronage of Mr.. jefferson, Mr.
Madison, Mr. Monroe, Gen. Jackson, and Mr. Van
Buren,, the biographer neglected to mention, that
under the administration Of Mr. Adams, he held, il
mistake not, the Office of Governor of Michigan
and Superintendent OF the Indians Of the North
west, which yielded him an annual income of
$4,000 year, and perhaps great deal more.
On this point the country will soon be enlightened,
as the accounts will be called for under resolu-
ton of Congress, when the people will have an
opportunity of seeing that nice "tt bits," in the
shape of allowances by the Secretary Of War,
were provided for party favorites in those days.
Now, why was the term of Mr.. Adams excluded
from the review of official service rendered by
Gen. CAST Why was his allegiance and profit
able connection with that Administration con-
cealed from public view in a sketch of his life
mediate inspection. The reason is too palpable
to need argument or explanation, and it is too con-
iemptible to be treated with anything else than
scorn and indignation
This attempt to belle public history, cannot but
react upon all honest and intelligent minds. 1t
presents him in his true colors, and proves that
though willing TO live upon the boRty of MIR. Ad-
ans administration, and to be recognized as one
of its most sycophantc supporters while in power,
he is now prepared to forswear his identity with
the party then in the ascendency, because it con.
ficts with his interests at the present day. lie
abandons il now, for the reason he adopted it in
1924
The fact that Gen. Cass held office under sc
many Presidents, furnishes the most conclusive
evidence, that he ready at all times to suppor
any administration or any party that offered hin
the necessary reward. His principle appears to
have been" Whoever is King, I'll be Vicar of
Bray" Hence, he reconciled himself to the con-
flicting principles of all who would employ him
reserving the privilege of deserving his party when
ever better bargain was presented
His biographer has also negleciedjto inform the
public that Gen. Cass was elected to the legisla-
lure of Ohio as Federalfst, and that he threw a
summer-set as soon as he saw what appeared tc
be more favorable opening in the top ranks o
the party which he was elected to oppose.
