THE TIMES.
SIMPSONS LETTERS.
TO THE PUBLIC—-LETTER 1,
- Having been singled out by the pub
lic Journals in the pay of General Jack
son, from the signeis to the protocol of
the original Jack<onmen, as one whose
motives might be unpeached with sue
cess; and upon whom abuse and vituper
ation might be lavished with most profit
to the government, it becomes an act of
Justice to myselt and friends, to give to
the public a true exposition of the rela
tions in which | have stood towards Gen,
Jackson, since his election to the Presi
dential chair; with such circumstances,
having connection with the history of the
times, as way promise to benetit the coun
try or elucidate principles.
At the urgent solicitation of many per
sonal and political friends, I was induc
ed in the early part of February, 1829,
to proceed to Washington, there to meet
and congratulate the new President.
This step 1 adopted with great relue
tance, and remonstrated strongly with all
my hriends against its wisdom and expe
diency. My forebodings of evil had long
preceded any suggestion of theirs, us to
the policy of' such an interview with the
new President. These torebodings of a
dereliction of principle on lus part, had
been grounded on the general declara
tion of hig adherents, that he must be re
clected for a sccond torm, under the a
vowed object that four years of oflice
would be too short a period to recom
pense his friends for their labors and
sacrifices. 1 then perceived, and sta
ted to those around me, the fotal change
of system and of principles, which such a
course on the part ot General Jackson
must produce. I anticipated that he
must abandon his principles against the
appointment of mewmbers of Congress and
open the portal of expectation of ofiice
to all the leaders of the adverse fuctions
that had combined and coalesced to se
cure hig clection, I anticipated, that
under such a change of system, *Coi-
RUPTION WAS TO ELCOME THE ORDRK OF
THE DAY '——that Lis integrity was pros
trated by this single intention; and that
every movement must correspond, 1n or
der to produce a concentrated action to
wards the success ol his re-election; that
the primary objects ot his election, would
be sacriliced to this ultimate consumma
tion—and that men, measures, and prin
ciples would equally be made to bead to
this darling object ot a powe:ful, ambi
tious, and mercenary combination, |
It hud already been hinted, who were
to compose the new Cabinet; and every
member named was a member of Congress,
and the leader of one of the factious, thal
at the eleventh howr, had come into his
support, after having exhausted the stores
of abuso, ribaldry, and detraction, to keep
him from interfering with the claims of
their several candidates. He secmed
to have made it a point, to heap the
highest honors on his most active and
malignant foes; as if to muke sure oftherr
adhesion for the great ulterior move
ment of a re-clection; and to cement the
green ties of mercenary friendship by the
golden fetters of a mutual interest, deep
and protracted.
Rumer assigned M. Van Burer as
Secretary of State. To me, the contrast
of such a man to De Witt Clinton, was
at once so mortifying—so humbling—so
outrageous, that 1 cherished not the faint
est hope of one gleam of honor resulting
from the administration of General Jack
son. Upon Mr. Van Buren 1 had ever
looked as a mere demagogue—an empty
pretender to the character of a states
man—an expert personal politician—a
manager of men—adroit at deception, and
restrained by no principle from the most
atrocious acts of a reckless and ambitious
aspirant, without talent to palliate profli
gacy, or knowledge and accomplish
ments to mitigate or excuse the evil means
by whieh he sought to accomplish his
ends. | had seen him truck the illustri
ous Clinton through a long life, like a
wily Indian, with a poisoned arrow—l
had seen him shed teigned tears over his
premature grave—and then snatch the
reward of lus labors, and wear laurels,
won by hunting his great victim to the
tomb, which he mght well have wusl‘n;'d
to cover himself, out of shecr envy ol its
lory. As governor of New-York, Mr.
Q'nfi Buren had exposed his ignorance
of the principles ol its cnmugcrclal pross
perity, and his total want ol knowledge
of the gcience of the political econonnst
and the financier. rlis insincerity of
friendship towards General Jackson, had
been made manifest, by the long interval
during which he kept open the arenue of
approach, between himsell and Mr. Ad
ams; had that great and |permit me to

and here every anticipation of evil arose;
which has been so abundantly realized,
to his mortification, and to the shame of
the country, IHis mcompetency for the
staticn, was to me, as well as to the pub
lie, mauifest—-but to me in a peculiar
manner, as | had frequent occasion to
discern the shall 'wness of hig acquire
ments, the medioerity of his talents, and
the indolence of his disposition. As a
writer, he was tame, bungling, and eve
ry way deticient—destitute of all beauty
of style, harmony of arrangement, and
thut last, most humble, but most useful
quality of" composition—-perspicutty of
expression, The trouble and distresa
caused by his essays communicated to
me for publication; the labor of revision,
and after all the neflicicucy of his pro
ductions, enable me to pronounce no
dubious opinion on this point, It was
unpossible to conceive in what his states
manship consisted. s carcer as a
Scnator had been a blank,dull,and mono
tonous progression from mute wisdom fo
an cloquent aye; and it he ever rose to
the distinction of the chair of a commit
tee, it was conlined to that of the district
of his adoption. We had no reports from
his peny and no speeches from his tongue,
But his intunacy with Gen, Jackson was
well known, to whom he stood in the
triple Light of friead, furvorite and mana
ger. To what extent this triple relation
was carried, will appear in the course of
these letters. Major Eaton arrived
Philadelphia during the month of Janua
ry, and his presence was greeted by the
announcement ol lis marrnage in the New
York newspapers, accompanied by the
most offensive comments, and a predic
tion of all the discord which his admis
sion into the cabinet, weuld necessaril
produce in the society at Washington.-
It was generally supposed by his triends,
that he would immediately assume un
attitude so belligerent, as to silence all
future attacks of so gross a character;
but he remained passive, and returned to
Washington, to listen to the echoes ol
the same strictures; modulated by court
complaisance, or aggravated by indig
nant envy, oflended morals, of insulted
religion,
The name of Samvern D, Ixanaym was
mentioned as secretary of the treasury,
The sclection appeared to me too sinis
ter and factious to secure general appro
bation. To Mr. Inghamn I had been
politically opposed-—sometimes from prin
ciple, and at others from peculiarty of’
position, or the force of party movements,
His talents did not appear toe me, at that
tune, to justitv the appointment;—but, |
have since seen ample cause to yield
him praiso for his ability, vigour aud in
dustry., It was chiefly as a prominent
leader of a party opposed to Generul
Jackson, at first, that his appointment
struck me as objectionable—Dbeing one
of those alliances with a conflicting can«
didate, without which a re-clection could
not be sccured, and which | have con
clusive proot would never have been en
tered into, if the single-minded intention
of oxe lerm had been faithtully adhered
to by the President: and it a cabinet had
been chosen for the sole purpose q}'ill =
biity to benefit the country, instead of Ity
adaptation to the ulterior object of his res
clection! Mr. Ingham was represented
as a warm partisan—a devoted friend,
and an unforgiving foe,—l have sinco
learned to appreciate hun higher; and
have proof, under the signature of the
President, that he never misused his offis
cial power to the detriment or prejudice
of tus original friends. 1 now respect
him as a statesman and a patriot. As o
man he has extorted my esteem; as a cit«
izen, 1 yield him my applause, livery
father and husband of the country, must
admire, though they may fail to extol
him, fram the force of prejudice, or the
rivalry of position,
The intention of Gen. Jackson to ap.
point Mr. Baldwin to this station, is now
only important, as it proves the change
of his mind to stand for a second term, to
have been wrought after his arrival at
Washington, upon a consultation with
Major Eaton, and the adoption of his suns
ister counsel. The fact of this intention
to appoint Mr. Baldwin, | had from tha
lips of the President himself, as well ag
I\Fujor Lewis, & since from letters from
Mr. Baldwin, awthorized by the Presie
dent. At Pitsburg, General Jackson
had resolved to appoint Mr. Ealdwin; &
invited him to Washington for that pur«
pose; and thither that gentleman went to
reap disappointment and mortification, to
feel the warm friend transtormed into tho
congealed President—to meet the snecrs
of the herd —the triumph of enemies, knd
‘the regret and condolence of frieads,
