Y. Constellation. To the Lditora of the Nat. Intelligencer. Washington, March 25///, 1830. Gentlemen—It has never been my wish to oppose the administration of Gen. Jackson, nor shall the scurrility ofliis hum Me and degraded parasites induce me to do so. I nevertheless consider the pres ent na n moment upon which my future personal reputation may essentially de pend, ns well in private, as in public life; and when I review the unparalleled illiber al it y which is practised toward me, 1 should do the most flagrant injustice) to myself, and loo'hers, were I to remain silent. iso fir as relates to the attacks made | upon myself individually, if I were to no ticc them, I should lie compelled to de! - e.id to a level with those who have made : ilien. I need only >av that they are false, \ <o far as any nutter of either ho war or honesty is concerned. Nor d<» I consider | that any man who is a gentleman would | stoop so low as to interfere with a man’s j ornate ullairs to accomplish a political j end. The true secret is, I have publicly an I uounced my self the friend of Henry (.’lay. I'Ims, as a freeman, i had a right to do. Hi.t the minions of power, with a view to | direct the public attention from the sub vert, have resorted to every “fabrication” relative to myself, my situation, my con do* t, public nod private, ami have literal iy ransacked the vocabulary of detraction to find epithets bitter enough to signify their spleen. To ho ist of c/nracter would be egotistical and unbecoming in any man; but, while I admit myself like other moo to he impeded, 1 dread no scrutiny ol my conduct through life. I lit* rude arid vulgar attack made upon mo by the editor of tho I'clegra.-li, under u hypocriticd declaration of great inspect for my parents, would nr* parsed over tn silence and contempt, if I did not suppo-u that low aad abandoned -is tliat print i« now gme rally tuliaiMod tub,* it may cause id. motives to be misconceived, and the step which I !:a"o taken to be maunder stood. 1 had grown up ir. the belief that patri otism was a virtue, and that truth and honesty were always to be honored and i respected. I did not suppose, that, when j men entered into public hi*,*, or were selec | ted to serve in tin.* Councils of the Nation, they must thenceforth sacrifice to part)/ al! •fiftt constitutes “private worth,” and all that they have been taught to regard as moral propriety. To approach, however, my principal do sign, I state, that I had been induced to 1 believe, from the representations abroad, f and industriously circulated among the jroplo, that gross abuses existed under the late administration, and that the public good required that its extravagance should be checked, and its wasteful expenditures arrested. \\ ith these impressions 1 honestly and fearlessly commenced what 1 conceived to be mv duty, bv introducing into the House of Representatives the long discus sed resolutions to retrench the expendi tures of the Government. 1 soon pcrceiv cd that I had touched a chord, tho vibra tions of which were not altogether harmoni ous even to those who ranked themselves us my political friends, and who, though compelled to go with me. secretly censu red the step as being premature and ab surd. I determined, however, to perse verointhe (bschargcof what I thought to be a sacred duty winch I owed to mv coun try, and to push forward in the course 1 h id taken, whatever might be the conse quences to myself. IY> this course I was tue m-iro strongly impelled by the consid era on, that mv motives were pure, anil my • oivictions honest. I h i I been led to believe that the elec tion of General Jackson to the JV side ir\ would be a public blessing, inasmuch as I vui ,»osed he wonld act up to the solemn ,i!*:ges lie had made, and comply with the wishes of his friends in producing a salu tary reform in the administration of the Government. I' his been with pain and moriificction that I havo witness*! the cinirse pursued in many removals from office; but still I hoped to see the expenses of the Govern ment retrenched, and that his administra tion would be the most economical one yet know n in this country. At this session, I felt myself called up . on to investigate the various items of ex j penditureof tlie prtct(Lng and pre.'tnt ad-i ministration; and, though my tuehogsaodj prejudices were strongly on (lie side of the latter, I was constrained to admit that the promised reform was not such as I had an ticipated. As mv consistency, and my all, are at stake, I exhibit the following brief state ment of the expenditures of the Govern ment during tho fiur years of Mr. Adams*;! administration, and a comparison with those of fbe/rrf year of »be pr?>tn* ad i ministration, S* an ample justification fur rny course. I am jiersuaded that a glance a* the statement will satisfy any one, who looks with greater concern upon trith, and ih • good of his country, than ujrmi “PAR l’Y.” In ti e year IS25. on the 4th of March. Mr. Adams was inducted into office. The total expenditure of tliat vear was ' $23,083,901 Paid of the Public Debt 12.095,311 Making the expenditure for 192-5. $11,490,460 after deducting the amount paid for the ex tinguishment of said debt. The expenditure in 1S26, was 821,103.299 From this deduct the amount of debt -paid, 11,011,082 The expenditure will be, 813,062,216 Iu 1627, tho total amount disbursed was $22,630,764 Payment on account of the Public Debt, which is to he credited, £10.003.669 Payment of awards under the first article of the treaty of Ghent, 398,616 Making a total to he deducted, 810.102,313 And exhibiting the current expenses of the year, $12,261,418 In the year 19*28, which was tho Lst a .d d mbtless the most jmiuful, of Mr. Adatns's administration, the total expenses were $25,485,315 Of tins sum, was paid fur the reduction of the Public Debt, 1 812 163.436 Also under the lst article of the treaty of Ghent, $790,069 These slims, being ns before deducted from the gross amount drawn from the Treasury, will exhibit uu expenditure for the mere purpose of sustaining the Gov ernment, of $12,531,806 I will now proceed to shew tho progress o\'retrenchment and reform, about which mvself and many others have long been clamorous, by exhibiting an official state ment ot the expenditures of tho year 1829, since the commencement of tho line and a 11 cry relative to retrenchment. in 19VTJ. lucre was ms* burned iho s un of $20,101,595 Of Jus amount there was i a.d toward the Public Debt the sum of 012,401,005 Under the 1st article of the Treaty of Ghent, 1,,9;K> These sums being deducted from the n mount drawn from the Treasury, and ex pended. will leave the nett expenditure for the ye.iT 192J, at $13,759,592 i'hus it will appoar that the cxpcndi lures of the first year of the administration of General Jackson exceeded those ol thei first year ot his predecessor, $2,209,123 91, and those of every other year, befweon 700,000, and otic million and a half of dollars. In the single item of expenditure* for! Foreign Missions, according to the appro-■ priutions of this year, there will t>c an ex- j cess of 065.500 over that of the last year' of Mr. Adams* administration, to wit: For Foreigh Missions in 1930. $181,500 Fur contingent expenses of the same, j 30,000 j $214,0001 Deduct from this the amount appropria ted to cover a similar expenditure due for ;ho year 1923, 19,000 It will then he perceived that the excess; will be in the year 1830, over that of 1829. J the sum of "siztyfice thousand Jive huu- J drr.d dolhvs.” 1 now comparo the appropria ions made for the contingent expenses of the House of Represent ttives while Mr. Clay was, Speaker of the House, with those since J made:* In 18>2. they were #13.000 In 1823, ' 40 Odd I,. 1821, 00,000’ In the vear 1829. we find them 10(5,000 In ;be vear 1830, 1-33.000 making Cue difference more than two to one between this, and the former Administra tion. I must also remark, that in the year' 1S26, the pay to Revolutionary [tension* j ers excelled by #400.000 the amount at present allowed; and that in addition to idese, other disbursements were made, on account of treaties with the Creek and ofh er Indian tribes. There was also cr»bra*( ced in the estimate of that year, the sum I of #91 000 toward the public buildings m j Washington. From the foregoing examination, and a variety of corresponding fads, my mind was perfectly satisfied, that instead ol re trenching the exjienditures of the Govern meat, they were increased!! And where i the work of increasing them is to end, I »c*. knowledge that I arn too little skilled in ] the oscillation* of the times to pretend to * It i9 also true, that the President haul recommended an increase °f *1*° |,n7 0^*i Foreign M misters, who now recrire on outfit of *9.UiJ0. and a salary of $9,000 t*r annum. Calls have botui made upon some of the Departments, with a view toj Ascertain and discharge ilioae who ought be considered sinecures in office. Duf j none are found, while mart are called fur j Discovering that I had been most egre gtously mistaken in attributing all the er* \ roc* of the Gov enmaat to the/ir-rrer, ivod ] | anticipating a thorough correction of them [under the present administration, in which I have been wholly disappointed and Be reived, can it be a matter of surprise that i should abandon its support, further than conscience may lead me, and pursue a course which the love of truth, tyid the great interests of my country most impe riously demand? 1 never can stoop to practice or counte nance deception. As a on mber of (’on greas, I am sworn to do my duty, and that duty I will endeavor to perform, regardless of consequences. My motives were sin cere, and my object the public jrxxl. I enugiu no honor; I coveted no political dis tinctiot. 1 came he*c to serve the people; and, as 1 thought, to advance their inter ests. jf was deceived, but the deception wan diTCTorcil; ai»w 1 'nw protest against being used as an instrument long* r to fau tlie flame of expectation among the peo ple. As my motives and character are now fairly uproar! before my countrymen, who, I am satisfled, will judge of me according to the principle# of justice, without being misguided by party rancor or prejudice, I cheerfully conic to a close, with a few ad duional remark# Upon ono other subji-ct. The present doctrine sbat political friends arc to he rcicardtd, and political enemies punished, is u doctrine evidently dangerous to liberty, as it tends to destroy every (lung in th*» shape of either freedom in opinion or action. The prosent. is the ' lirst era in a free country, in whiqji history could justly record, that a free man was either to be persecuted or punished for opinions1 sake, while continuing lo regard ; lus country, its constitution, and its laws, i each of which promise, and guarantee to ! him Ins freedom and his safety. At su^h f a doctrine, I hope m Ciod my heart may. I over revolt, while it continue# to act at #11. Shall there bo superadded to tins, uu in discriminate ravage, and destruction of character, bv the mean# of men, who, more guilty themselves, arraign those whom thoy would wish considered so! Such a course would Iks so cruel, so use less, and I may ndd, so unprecedented, that every honest man must recoil at tho idea.
