son Of Col. ALEXANDER HAMILTON. the
great founde, Of the monarchical federal
party, in the U. s., has recently written
a letter in which be claims that his faith.
er wrote Washing,on's Proclamation of
Neutrality, and also his Farewell Ad-
dress. This is probably true. THOMAS
JEFFERSON, for having alleged tha, HAM,
ILroN gave direction to The policy of
WAsniNoroN's administration, has been
assailed by federalisls and Wings in the
most ferocious temper After lapse of
more ,hsn half a century the son Of the
distinguished father ofFederal Whiggery
now comes forward and fully sustaiIs all
The allegations of Mr. JEFFERSON.
Asa declaration Of temporary policy,
adopted to the times and circumstances
The Democrats Of that day did moi,
protest against the assertion Of The non.
Intervention doctrine. AS Nation, the
u. States we're then in their swaddling
clothes; and selfpreservation-the 6rst
law--suggested non-interven,ion in the
affairs of other nalious as the true policy
adapted TO our condition. Blu, policy
which was jusii6able and proper then,
would be undigni6ed, unprincipled and
cowardly now, when we have attained our
manhood, and claim position scafcely
second to any Of the powers of the earth.
! The Democratic Party of this country
at no period Of their history have ever
contemplated recognizing the Doctrine
of non.intervention as settled PRINCE
PIE. All they have ever claimed, and
all they now claim is, simply, that if Des-
potisms have the right to form "holy ALI
ances'' 10 crush the efforts of nations
struggling TO throw off their chains, then
this country has an equal right to inter
pose in behalf of justice and liberty, il
she thinks proper so to do.

younger:"
New YORK, Dec. Is, 1851.
To His Ercellency, Cor. Kossuth:
SIR: In accordance with my promise,
now lake the liberty TO recommend, fol

asmuch as they will present 10 your gras
ping mind, the best evidence of the mas
ter influence which has, thus far, glidet
the dcsiinies Of the United States, il
their career to distinctions.
In the 9Th volume of the works, you
will find the history Of the Proclamation
of Neutrality, and learn that the name o.
| Jefferson, attached TO that document, was
only so done as an authenticating mark
of official lormality, aud referring TO the
notorious fact that the measure and its
|policy dio encounter the abuse AMI mis-
| representation of the confidential parti.
Izans Of Jefferson, the reasonable infer
ence is, that he did not ,uish the publca
ltion, because inconsistent with his party
views.
The proclamation was written by Ham
ilton, at the seat Of Government, Will,
Washington was at Mount Vernon, ant
Jefferson, at Monticello; when issued
Hamilton was forced into the field o
controversy, and, in series Of articles
signed Pcc6cus, most ,riumphantly bore
down every opposi,ion-and thus the pol
! icy Of neutral course was adopted, al
the principle action of the country, in or
der TO avoid entapgling connections.
As the time has come when certail
Developments mus, be made public, d'
not hesitate to inform you that the Fare

trality-and for the accuracy ofthis slate

Works which contain the confidentia
} correspondence Of Hamilton, with all III
distinguished statesmen ofthe period am
especially with Washington; when exam

ferences and other official coinmunics

; there existed the one principle and III
: ono idea through the whole range {
lIamilion's political course, the establish

, The immutable principles of honor an
honesty.
In the 9Th volume you will also fin

State, asking the opinion of IIamilto
