To the Presioest UL S,
Waanisaroy, April 20, 1831,
S Late last evening, I had the
honor to recaive vour letter of that date
tendening vour resignation of the ofhce
ol Seerctary of the Navy,
When the resignations of the Seerc.
tary of "tate and Secretary of YWar wero
tendered, 1 considered fully the rea
sons oflered, and all the ewcumstances
connccted with the subject, After mas
ture delhiberation, I concluded to accept
th =e resigunations. But when this con
clusion was come ta, 1t was accompanicd
with a convietion that I must eatirely re
new my Cabmet. Its members had
been wvited by me to the stations they
accapied; at had come together in great
harmony, and as a umt. Under the
rln‘.llinr\.l:lnt'l‘\ n “‘hil‘h l fouml mylelt',
I could not but percewve the propriety
of selecting a Cabinet composed of e
tirely new muterials, as lwinq caleu
lated, in this respect at least, to coms
mand public confidence and satisty pub
he opinion. Nether could I be wmeensi
ble to the fact, that to permit two only tq
retire would be to attord room for unjust
misconceptions and malignant misrepre
centations concerning the influence of
their particular presence upon the con
duct of public sifairs. Justice to the
mdividuals whose public spirit had Im.
pelled them to tender their resignations,
ulso required, then, in my opinion, the
decision which I have stated. How
ever painful to my own feclings, it be.
came necessary that 1 should frankly
make known to you my view of the
whole subiect
In accentiyz vour resignation, i i 1
