AARON BURtt AND HENRY CLAY. \
Mh Editor:
I was .1 close observer of flic events which ’
transpired in 1906 —*7. Nothing but the unpriu- 1
■'•pled efforts which arc now making to associate [
General Jackson's name with the treasonable de- :
signs of Col. lhirr, could now induce me to come ‘
lot ward and make a disclosure ol transactions i
thought by myself and others innocent at the time;
but which, according to the promises of Henry
Clay and his friends, will indelibly stamp his char
acter wi*h treason, and fix upon him the fact of
having participated in Burr’s projects. Boar in
iuiud,tliat I make no charges. I only state facts and
reason lioin prenus** which tlu-y thein«eiveshave
laid down. 1 must necessarily be brief, and ear
nestly invite tin? attention of impartial men to the
Tacts 1 feel it my duty thus publicly to state. To
.these facts, which I solemnly aver to he such, l in
vite and challenge contradiction by Mr. Clay him
self, or any of his trained assassius in this place,
further,if the genuineness «>f the letter of Henry
Clay, in 1907, and that of Col. Durr, same year, he
•piestioned by Mr. Clay, or any authorized respon
sible name, 1 pledge myself to meet him or them
[upon oath, before any legal tribunal. Il l tail af
:tcr having thus challenged them. I beg the pub
lic to discard me as unworthy of belief.
? To proceed. Col. Burr arrived in the western
[country in the fall of 1906. He visited Mr. Clay,
[Governor Shelby, Gen. Jackson, and the most dis
tinguished character* of that day. Asa Jtcvolu
jtionary soldier, a distinguished statesman and late
Vice President of the L’nitcd States, he every
where received the most cordial welcome. Igno
rant of his treasonable designs, we all vied with
,cach other to pay him the most distinguished .ttfen
jtion. His first visit was to Henry Clay in f.exing
^ton, and from him he received the kindest civil
litres—by him he was introduced to tmr wealthiest
[and most influential citizens, and thus by his cotin
[tenanre and recommendation ol Col. liurr, placed
'it in lus power to further his treasonable schemes.
! Henry Clay and J-A-endorsed Co!.
(Burr's bill lor near 3,000 dollars, and thus further
(enabled him to carry on his project; for without
riunds nothing could be effected. Tints wo see
’that it was Henry Clay who gave Burr his first
|looting in the western country—whether inno
cently or not I will leave it to his own friends to
isav, and not knowing the extent of his connexion
|with Burr, they have already said, that no man
[could have cute!taint'd Burr without participating
[in his treason. To prevent all quibbling, 1 now
igive an extract from a letter a copy of which is
jnowininy possession, from tlic celebrated Mr.
• Burr. 11 is bill drawn in Uexington, had been sent
back protested. How I got this letter, which is
; addressed to one rtf his endorsers, then living in
Lt xington, it i* suflicint only to say, it was honor
ahly obtained. It they doubt the genuineness of this
letter, let Mr. Clay deny it:
‘ “ Ihnr Sir. The dishonor of my bill has given
•me the utmost concern. I hope you have ’one me
the justice to believe, that the event was as itncx
peettd to me ax it could have been to you, mid
i that it is to be imputed solely to the extraordinary
.causes with which you are acquainted. I mean
the acts of Government. These circumstances
will, it is presumed, give me some claim to mdnl
,genre from those concerned, until 1 can have time
tocouunand the r csovw cc.-origirially declined to meet
[those bills.**
Having procured this money. Tie visited Nar-h-"
villi-, and was received by Gcittial Jack -on in the
most fiiendly manner. He was then ignorant of
Burr’s designs; and believed him K* be an honora
ble man. However, having got a hint of his re.:I
objects, he writes about the 2bth Nov* mber, U'Jli,
cautioning Gov. Claiborne against limr and his as
soci.ites. Aliout the same time he w lit vs to Air.
Jetli rson, who wan then President, ird.rtning him
ol JJuir’s movements, and temleiiug the militia un
der his command, to take the livid against liurr.—
This was probably the fit'll intimation the Presi
dent had of Hurt’s movement:! in the western
country. Mr. Jeflcryoti, in It's letter to (ouiet.it
Wilkinson, then cci.uu nuimg at New Orleans says,
“ be assured Tennersce and part ,cula, !i/ General
Jackson, are faithful.” Now. is it pos-alde that
Jackson, if concciin’d with Bun, would be the
first to give Mr. Jefferson information of his pro
jects, and tender the Tciine see militia to act a
gainst himself? Hut l must hurry ou and *ce what
becomes «f Colonel liurr. .
