General Jark**jn and h:s lady, and particularly the
charge made in one rews-pap-r of Cincinnati, that,
<n the -uinnv r of 1790, General Jack-on prevailed
upon^ the wile ot Lewis Robarde of Mrictr couri
•y, Iveiitucky, to destrt her Imahand anil Jive with
himself in the character of a wife,*' and havin '
also seen th- evidence hy which the Editor attempt*
to support tbie charge, we no« submit to you.
succinct statement of the facts attending the eepa
ration ot Lewis liobaid- and hi? wife, and the sub
sequent mariage of Mrs. R with Gen Jack.non,
and also -uch evidence and documents a- will pro
bah \ be sufficiently satisfactory 10 the - blic.

Judge M’Nairy, «vhose letter is subjoined, is
the dis'r ci judge ,f the Federal Court, a man of
high nprt uni lemislied reputa*ion, whose statements
nay be lelied on as mod-?eur»te and incontrover

colouring to any part of hi. testimony, (b ) °

Oi Mr. A. fo<TKR, u is only necessary t
oay that he was, for many years, President of the
•oaar.i of t.ur Laud Commissioners one of the
most h n Table and correct man of our country.
(m.)
Ut Judge Overton’s character, we need say
noihing; the testimony of no person Ins been resor
ted to where there could be any, the slightest, cues
tion raitcd an to the;r char^cteM.
In making the investigation, you wi-hcj.we
have met with some difficulty and delay on account
of the great length of time since the facts occurred
and that the public mind, for a great many years, in
t.us country, had ceased to think on this subject. At
the time when Mr. Rvbi.rd* separated from his wife,
applied for a diverse, obtained it, and General Jack
son married her; when all the f,c-, were fresh aB(]
distinct, public opinion was formed and the co
temporaneous jti 'gment of ibo society in which
those persons resided, came to a clear and decisive
result in their Lvnur. There did not exist even an
injurious suspicion wi h regard to tbeir previous
conduct; to the justice of this judgement, thirty
seven years of domestic peace and useful virtue,
have given a sanction which m ist .>psrate upon’
every candij and generous mind, with irresistible
power. Rjt notwithstanding all the-e difficulties
we believe that we are sble to present to you a
Cjuect history of (b:>K6 irftn"nriioi*B.
ill me summer or fall of 17SS, Mrs. Robaids
ira* compelled by her husband, C»pt. Rorwrds
who then resided in Mercer county Ky., to leave
him, and to seek a home with her mother, Mr*.
,nelson, a widow lady, living about ten mile*
Iroin XVashville, in Tennessee. That Mr*. Rob
ards was compelled at this time, by her husband
lo leave him i* proven by Judge Overton’s tes
tiinony, by Gen. Ray and by Mr. John McGiuni*;
thr.t she was an injured and innocent woman, of
most irreproachable character and conflict, jg
proven by the ssroe persons, and by Mai. Thomas
Ailtn arnJ 1 .apt John Moux. (ij
Capt. Robard- him*elf acquits her, and admitted
that Ins suspicions were unjust. (j)
In the spring or summer ol 17S9 Judge Overton
and Gen. J'ckson became boarders at Mrs DoneN
son’s, when Gen. J*ck«on first saw Mrs. Itobard*;
ni the same spring or summer, Capt. Robardt
and his wile became reconciled, and lived together
at her mother’s (Mrs. Donelson ) (/r) °
I . 'he summer or fall of this year. ‘Jo; ■ R >b
ard came jealous of On. Jackson; upon tlr«
p r ol u.e subject we will q :ut- the siatemen' o'
Judge Overtoil, ae Rivir.g the most authentic «c
crunt of the several facts which transpired about
that time. He says, “not many months elapsed
before Robards became jealous of Jack*on, which
I felt confident was without the least ground.
Home of his irritating conversaiion on this subject
with his wife, l heard amidst the tear* of herself
and her mother, who were greatly distressed. 1
urged to Robard* the unmanliness of his condic',
after the pains I had taken to produce harmony, a*
a rr.u-u.d friend of both fnn.i ie* an 1 my honed
conviction-that In* «ii*pjcions were giourdlc's.—
'I here lemon* rar.ees eremed not to have ihe de-ir
ed effect; as much commotion U tininppines* p e
vaiiej in the lamily, j„ that ol Robuitis
•r* Sentuiky.
A. lengh! I mmrmin’cattd to Jackson, t!ie tin
pleasant situation of living in a iamily where
there was so much disturbance and concluded by
telling him, that we would endeavour to gc some
0 h*r place ; 10 this he rea.lily as»vnted j,ul
>. r to go we did not know, firing conscious ol
his innocence, he said, that he would talk to Ho
hsrds. What pa-ed between apt R mania al|(|
Jackson 1 do not know, as 1 w .» absent some
where, not now recol.ectej »vl|,n the conversation
and lesuli took plsce, but returned soon afterward*.
1 he whole sffnr was tela ed to me by Mis
1’orrefaon (the mother ol Mrs. Ilober<i*)and a*
**cl as I recollect, by Jack • himself. The sub
s’anre oi account w*«, that Mr Jack ton met
<.'*pt. Hoherds near the orebs'd fence, rnd began
mildly t , r*. on-trate writ him, re-pc i.

|fh** Mine time, that if he insisted on fighting, h«
would nive him gentlemanly * >tisfactioit, or wurdi
to that i-iTert. Upon Jackson’* return out of the
I house, Cipi, Hoha d * s«id thai lie did not care for him
; nor hi* wife, abusing them both — that he was de
I termined not to live with Mrs Hobarda. Jackson
retiied fiom the family, and went to live at Mau
j nker’b station. Capt. liobsds remained eevetal
: months with his wile, and then went to Kentucky,
| id company with Mr. Thomas Crutcher, and ; ro—
j bahly *0111* other persons ”
So lar a* we have been able to ascertain by in -
,<j"iry, this is the on'r altercation thr.» ever took
plrce l* tween General Jackson and Capt. Kohaide;
, Mr. Crutcher a.-ys, “ I never heard ol General
• Jackson and Capt. Hobards having any quarrel or
I misunderstanding but the one, aor do I liei.tve
they ever did.” e
1 bis dilTerence or qosrre’, was in a«*ertior, ol
■ he- . justice (a- declarer! by General Jackson,) of
, Captain Hobards’ suspicions against hitu: General
Jackson seems immediately 10 have left Mrs.
I Donclaon’*; (.-’{.plain KobarJs and his wife lived
I together several months afic; .yards, in ap]>a<enl
harmony,tn
In the month of May or June, 1790, Captain
Itubaid* left hire. Done Ison's to go to Kentucky
in company with Mr. Thonii9 Crutcher, with the
avowed intention of returning and settling in Mrs.
; ConelsoD * neighborhood, wiiich hail been made one
1 of the terms of reconciliation by Airs. R., though
really bis determination appears to have been ne
; ver to return or live with his wife again, but to de

a part:
" * vv“8 a member of the Virginia Legislature in
! the session of 17U0, when a pauijon was presented
j in b*-lt*lf of a Mr. Robards for a divorce. He was
»«id to be a lesident in one of ihe counties of lLa
j district of Kentucky, then a part cf Virginia. It
l believe, the second instance of an applies
I tion for a divoice that had been matin to the Legis
latuie; very certainly the second that I had been
called upon to vote. I was a young man at that
time, and the deep impression made on my mind
was, the novelty and importance of the case, com
' bined with the interest v/bith I felt in behalf ol
j *he female concerned •.remain with great uistinct
ne.-a. Mr. K bards was represented tof.e a man ol
vile, wild habit., and harsh temper; his wife lore
! ftnJ blameless in her disposition and deport
ment-no cruelly treated by her Lu'bntd r» to
make a «epa>a’ion necessary to h-r happines*. It
! wa8 under impressions produced by a stale offsets
j like these, that I voted lur a judicial inquiry on the
subject, which I altvsya understood eventuated in a
divorce.
*' If Mr. Robirdt alleged incontinenry in his
j wife ss a ground ol divorce, and 1 rather think
j 'hat tie did, I aui very sure that 1 thought her in
I noeetll, «nd that my vo e was Intended to lib.rate
I her, as the injured party.” o
In sdli'iou to which, we will now cal! your at.
lemion to such positive testimony ss we have
| collected, as to the injustice of Captain llobairls’
; suspicious, and the charge made again.t General
| Jackson.
| Judge Uverlou, who lir»?J i:i the earnc toom
with General Jack'on during a]) ibe period in «pjes
tion, slept with him, held the strictest and most
confidential intimacy with him, mate#, an hie so
I'-mn. clear belief, that Mra. R ihards was inuo
tent, and moat unjustly suspected; that such Vv.n
ti:e result of hiv uwn observations, and euch were,
at all tin ea, the solemn a-cvera:ions of Ciencial
Jackaon during that period, and at all timet since, p
Mi-. Craighead, Mra. Smith, and Mra. Kow-en had
the heat opportunities of judging. Correctly: in
i speaking of Mrs. Jtubards’ conduct during the pe
riod which elapsed from the time she came from
Kentucky, end of the injustice of Robatds* suspi
cions, Aire. U. eeye: —
" 1 have no hesitation in a'nting ij as my firm
beiit-l, that his (Captain It’bards') suspicions were
enli.cly f^rouadhs.ij no lady ever cond icied herself
in a more becoming manner, during die whole of
ills' period; I have lived within a few miles of Mrs.
Jackson’* ever since that lime, (wilh the fjcccp

Some lime In (he month of Janu.irj . I7«?]f Mrs.

! residence in the neighborhood, l.ved principally in
the family of Col. Tho. Green, and Col. Bxucn,
families S3 highly respectable as any in that coun
try. The causes of this journey by Mrs. liubards,
and the reasons which induced Gen. Jackson lo ir
, company Col Sta.k, we will give litrrally in tj*>
j language of the testiui ny of Jjudge Overton and
J Wr. Crutcher. Judge Overton says, “ home tinm
abet ward*,du.ing the winter of 179!, Mm. Don*|
»on tolJ me of her daughter’* intention to go down
; the river to Natchez, to tome of her Iriend-, in cr

“ Ti.e whole . tl\ir gava J .ck*un great uncar:

hi* cbivairou-conceptions of the female sex, ii°fcll
i v. aye occutred to me, that he was distinguishable
from eveiy oiLer person with whom I till ac

Abou' the time of Airs. I)onel*on’s comruuni

he vsas the most unhappy of men, ia hiving im,o

' los* ol the peace end happiness of’Mrj Rob. r >.
, whom he believed to be a tine woman. In tin* ;
concurred with him, hut remonstra ed upon the
propriety of his no) giving himself any unea.inea*
about it. It was not long attcr (his before he com -
municaled it. me his intention of going to Natchez
J with Col. Stark, w ith whom Mrs. Robards vv*; \t
descend the river—saying that she had no ii\n,
, or relative that would go eiili her, or as.-ist m pe
j venting Stark, his family, a id Mrs. Robarda fr,"m
; being mastered by ibe Indians; then in a Mate of
war, and exceedingly troullcome. ActjorJin.-!v
Jackson in company with Mrs. Robarda and L'V
Staik, a venerable and highly esteemed old mar.,
; aud friend of Mrs. Robaids, went down the river
; from Nash vile to Natchez, some timeio the winter
or spring of 1*91. It ws.aot, however, without
| the urgent entreaties of Col Sink, who wanted
protection horn the Indian*, that JurksQn coasent
ed to accompany them, of which I had heard, be
| fore Jackson*' conversation wtth rue, already aihi
idedto." Mr. Crutcher says, “ Capt. Rubards ■
never, to my knowledge, returned to West Ten
nesee, or What was then called Cumberland. It.
was reported, however, that hs threatened to come,
and take hit wife to Kentucky, and compel her to
live there. She, as well as nil her friends, was
i vrr7 much opposed to this, and in order to place
hersell beyond Jbis reach, as J understood ai the
tune, determined lo descend the r.ver under Co*.
Stark’s protection to Natch.z. It wn* in Deccm
, Ler, or perhaps January, before Col Stark couid
’ get off with his family; Gen. Jack on also went «
lung; but after they landed at Natchez, the General
resumed to this country.” (f)
l.» the winter or spring of 1791, information
was received at Nash hie il at Cspt. Robarda ha I
obtained a divorce from the Legislature of Virginia
This was the belief of ail person* in the country!
( Ciutcher says, “I do not know how th? infor
mation reached the country, bill It was generally, in.
! ‘•o’d.I believe, universally relied on a* being cot
net.” Judge Overton'* account is snb-tan iai y
1 the same, and timber, that in the summer of 17{J!,
J he in Kentucky, remained part «.f hi* time »\
'Old Mi*. Ruberd*’, and never und-rs'ood other
! wise than that Capi. Robsrd*’ divorce was fln.d
J until the latter par: of the year 1793, (;».) Oi ti e
1 atiength and universality oi this opmi in, there can
be no doubt. Up n the receipt and geserai he*
lief of ibis information, Gen. J irkanti, in July or
' August, 1791, returned to Natchez m c mpany
