:mother were referred to, and gave state .
Donner known, than Mrs. Eaton and her aids
attempted to intimidate • them, and induce
them to retract their statements. She told
them that Major Eaton would prosecute them,
and thei suit would ruin them. This failing,
. . ' she added, that Major Eaton--would avenge
her, and would spill Mr. Campbell's blood,
which, if they persisted, they would be an
. swembie for. All sorts of arts and vicious
contrivances were practised to alarm those
two ladies. They, however, relying upon
truth and virtue as their protection, before
Heaven, did 'persist in asserting every ma
terial fact they had before stated. /n. one
immaterial particular only, woad they mod
ify their statements: conforminiL to a more
refreshed' recollection. The Secretary of
-- War and his lady, were engaged at the same
time in endeavoring to intimidate Mr. Camp
bell. They had several interviews with hi in,
one of these"in the presence of Col. Towson.
They also threatened his life if he did not re
tract, but all in vain. Their proceedings
were daily, and almost hourlyonade known
- to the President, by Major Lewis, who was
the aidecamp of the old General throughout.
When all these preparations ,Were made for
a general movement, and Mr Bradford had
made his report from New York, General
Jackson sent for Dr. Ely to come to Wash
ington—then summoned his cabinet, except
• Major Eaton, and invited Mr. Campbell to
attend. Major Lewis was also in waiting.

'be \iftiA a man of spotless chailtetFri&ev&c.
He then introduced the charges more partic
ularly. • "Mr. Campbell's witness," he said,
• "was a dead Doctor, who had, by his own
admission, violated his_profesaiana ai7ito
keep his patient's secrets, and was, therefore,
not to believed,—that his wife and mother
- had made contradictory statements, and they
were not to believed" Here Mr. Camp
bell requested to have the statements read,
but General Jackson refused. "But," said
he, "if it were true that Mrs. Timberlake
had a miscarriage, at the time Mr. Camp
bell alleges, the child was, no doubt, her
husband's; for, (said he,) I have seen Tim
berlakes_booksovith_his__own writing.;_so
late in the same yetir, (say) 1825, that I am
satisfied on- that point." Here General
-Jackson mentioned the latest date he had
seen in the books, and also-the date of the
miscarriage, according to- the alleged state
ment orDr. Craven an d his family. When
he had' got thus far, Mr. Campbell informed
the President that he had made a mistake of
one . Oar, in fixing the time of the miscar
riage; that it was - stated by Dr. Craven to
have ()muted in a certain month (say) in
1826, more than a year after Timberlake
left the country. "No, sir," said the Gen
eral,"you fixed it in 1825." "I bee the
' ' I rdwn; se's r. - amp •• ,
"but he is certainly mistaken; I never did

Gen.. Jackson. Mr. Campbell replied, tha

alleging "that they had slept in the sam:

was, that they had been seen on the bed to

were sitting on the bed together. Afte

upon which he retired, and the scene ended.
Before this meeting took place,,Genetal
Jackson sent, his man Lewis to take a pew
in another church, and afterwards he did
all he could th , :induce his dependents to do
the same-. Mr. Campbell was from that
time forth persecuted by all the influence
of the President. An invitation given to
him a few evenings before this cabinet meet
iing occurred, by Mr. Branch's family, to a
social party, was reported to the President,
by his Major Domo, and artitttlie.ealtse of
a personal difference betwMl, 67:i l tn and Ea
ton, fir which the latter says in his book,
(written by Amos Kendall,) that he did not
speak to Branch. From these facts, I leave
you to judge of General Jackson's claims to'
the character of a religious man. I say
nothing about his profitne swearing—it may
be his besetting sin; but I rest the case upon
his flagrant injustice to a pious, unotiending
minister of the gospel; his utier disregard
of the plainest precepts of morality, and his
abuse of the powefof his station to slur and
slander the pious dead, •in order to veil the
sins of a vicious favorite, tending by its ex
ample, not merely to contaminate the socie
ty of the national metropolis, but to pollute
the morals of the whole nation. Will regu
lar attendance at church and saying grace
before meat, give to such a man any claim
to the character of a christian?
You will, perhaps, be curious to know
how I became so minutely acquainted with
these transactions; I can only say, in reply
to such an inquiry, that there are not a few
persons in this city to whom these matters
are quite familiar. I have sought the facts
from various authentic sources, and have
kivi.iiiyotrsattras will; I have no doubt, be
corroborated by every honest witness who
was present at any of them. I have, hoiv
ever, only given you an outline, and this
ivithout the slightest coloring. If the whole
reality could- be given just as it occurred,
and'as must be known to the witnesses, I am

HISTORICAL FACT.
Andrew Patterson was among the first o
the New England emigrants to the southern
part of the county of Herkimer. At the
commencement of the Revolution he enlis
ted as a private, and by continued good con
duct he was promoted, a little before the
close of the Revolution, to the rank of or
derly serjeant. During the whole of that
memorable contest he had been an active
andirardysohlier ---- Atene ... time - hc - receiv ,
ed a letter from General Washington direc
ting,- 1 to take charge-of-a-sinall-seouting
party. This document he preserved as a
most precious jewel until the close of his
life. Its contents, and the frequent eNhi 7
bitions of it, as he related stories of the time
"that tried men's souls," constituted the
-source-and futrel of- all his happine~ss~ And
when he told the trials and "hair 5-hreadth_.
escapeS," to which he had "oftemand again"
been Subjected, the recital of which would
bring the "big tear drop" in the eye, he
would show you "the letter," the warrant of
his, bravery and. his sterling- integrity. He
was industrious and of good habits; but by
pursuing the business of a shoemaker in the
early settlement of the place, he could ob
tain little if — any more than the necessaries
of life. Id - the 68th year of his Age. he was
smitten with an appoplectic fit. This crip
pled and disabled him the remainder of his
life. In this situation no alternative was left
him for subeiisience but to apply to the town
for support. The bare idea rent his very
soul, and he suffered long lvfore he resorted
to this mortifying alternative. Tile services
he had rendered; the• battles ha fad fought;
the exposure of his life for the cause of his
country and independence were .often taken
in review' by him; and when he mused 'upon
these circumstances, you.. would see his man
lyheart rise with convulsive thoes in his
bosom. • Soon after his application for pub
lic support the annual town meeting took
placer' It had been the practice for one or:
two year-s, to put up the- public poor,'(or pati.
pers as they 'were called) at venclue at the
annual town meeting, and sold to- the lowest
bidder. Patterson was present. After the
ordinary lxisiness of the meeting was over,
the officers proceeded-to the sale of the pant
pers. The name of Patterson was at-last
cried out'hy the auctioneer. No sooner did
Patterson hear his own , person offered for
sale, than with a convulsive sob he'exclaim
ed, "can it be possible that my country who
has had all the. services of my youth and
manhood, will in my - old age sell me as a
beggar." . With the aid'of his. crutch and

the excitement of the moment may lend
some shadow of palliation to the duelist,
which the cool writer of history, when lie
speaks, of duelling in such terms as Mr.
Prentice has done, cannot claim.
