GENTLEMEN: In reply to your note of this
date, take pleasure in saying that you have
my permission to make such disposition of the
correspondence referred to as you may think
the circumstances require.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April IS, 1856.
SIR One day last week l placed in the
nands OF General Cas-, with request to lay
1t before the Senate, the memorial of the gen.
eral assembly Of Kansas praying for her ad.
mission into the Union as a sovereign State.
L gave that direction to the memorial from
the fact that the convention which framed the
constitution OF Kansas, with great unanimity,
had before selected General Cass as the me.
dun by which to present the constitution to
the senate, deeming him, on account of So.
nlority, the more proper person to introduce
into the new applicant.
On Thursday of that week that memorial
was tie subject of severe criticisms, and in
eonnexion with it charges Of the most grave
character were preferred against me.
On Monday last, in a paper read in your
hearing and by yours, 1 frankly avowed my.
self the reviser Of that memorial stated dis
tinctly tnat II was prepared under my direc-
tion, in conformity with the authority vested
in me; that no human being was consulted in
tie preparation of it, the instructions of my
principals faithfully carried out the expla-
nation was as full as the avowal was frank,
nothing being withheld After this, in con-
ne1ion with the memorial, you repeat the
charge in form much more objectional than
before. Believing, as do, that neither the
constitution Of the United States nor the rules
Oh the Senate were intended to Justify or
sanction so gross an attack upon the character
a an American citizen, / respectfully ask for
.S Scn An explanation of ysur language upon
suse occasion as will remove all imputation
upon tne integrity Of my action or motives in
'oWTeAlon with that memorial.
