This conversation took place on Wednes

Sin:A—A received to-day, yuur note of las

article in the United States Telegraph of the
11th instant', relating to your wife--and de
siring to know Whether I will sanction or dis
-avow that-statement.„.you.add,ifilii :telation
we have sustained towards each other,autho
izes me - . to demand Im - immediate -answer."
Tothis enquiry preferred as a matter of,
l
I right, and presented in the form of a demand
my answer must be brief.
,It consists in the
simple denial of the claim' which you assert.
I cannot recognize your right to interrogate
me, concerning the statements of the Tele
graph, or of any other public. Journal', which
are made without.my agency: You might
with equal propriety selection article from
any newspaper in the Union, forihe purpose
of putting me to the question—and' if the
claim which you assert be well founded, I
might be required at the instance of any per t
son aggrieved to give my confeision efTaith,
in relation to the various statements 'to be
found in any of the Journals in which my
naine may chanctAp tar iiiieataile#: Such
edemand, therefore, cannot be admitted for
a moment. But although I carnet roxog-'
nine your right, eilher as derived from thee
relation which we have sustained towardi
each other, or from,tuty other source, to make
the demand presented by your note, I am
not quite sure, lopking to .the positiou'in
which we stand 'before the public, that . ' can
acquit myielf to the community or to nay. ,1
self for declining to, nswer your inquiry,r-• H I
. In the progress of these events which have
at lengthrestated in the dissokitioriOf the
cabinet, my determination has been not to do
any act which - Wastealculated to eovige eou-,
troverq; nor to deViate under .wfmtares qt. ,
gooey &Ili that line of conduct whiehlny
own sense of propriety prescribed.' 'Acting.
upon this determination, I have necessarily
pursued a course,'which a refusal to =swig
lotir inquiry, might Seem to indicate an Mi.
willingness to avow. Siich an 'intermit*

thereto e I have the most muiffboted reloct-
Ande I entel'itipo sti4 a sake i, 4 cepkin-
ly do not acquiesce in your right to demand
it., it seems to Me ,that you have by matiting
the inquiry, imposed upon me the obligation
to do so, from' just consideration of iihat I
owe to myself and to the public. 'I have then
to state to you; - thatitp-to the'. time of your
marriage, I had'tiot heard the ruinort, which
•have-since-hr varioterformai 2 been presented
to the public,. and was ignorant of Mrs. Ea
ton's relation to the society of this place. I
accepted your invitation to be present at.!
your wedding therefore, with no distrust of
the propriety of my doing' o, other than that
which resulted from my..own situation at that
pe'riod. You are, yourself no doubt" ifirviir-e
-how anuch that event, and your subsequent
introduction into the Cabinet, made' these
rtnnotti-s the subject of conversation. I could
not longer continue -in ignorance of that
which was ptiliticly and generally spoken of,
audit...consequently became necessary for
me, embarrassed as the questiOn was, by the
official relation it Which we stood to each,
other, to deterinine upon Illy future conduct.
In doing this it did not seem to me to be ne
cessary to decide upon the truth or falsehood
of the statements which were made: It was
sufficient to ascertain the' general sense of
the community of which I had recently be
come a member; and having done 50,,t0 con
form to it. In the winter of 1830 as ',pre
sume is known to you, I was called upon by
a gentleman who represented himself as act
ing, and who I doubt not, did act under the
authority of the President, to express .with
precise reference to this subject the regret
which he-felt at the want of harmony, or of
social intercourse among the members of the
Cabinet, and to announce his determination
at any rate to have it. Messrs: Ingham lind
Branch were present at this interview. The
fact was distinctly stated-that they and-my
selfhad successively given very large parties
to which Mrs. Eaton had not been invited.—
We were then told that on such occasions at
least the President would expect in future a
-social intercourse between our respective
families.. There wore various suggestions.
made during their conversation, but the re,
capitulation is • not .rendered necessary .by
your inquiry. I answered,to this commun
ication for myself, that I 4dtlia - not permit
• the President, nor any other individual to
regulate the social intercourse of myself or
family----and that if such a requisition was
persevered in, I would, retire from the offici-
Al situation which I held. In the interview
to which I was invited by the President some
few days afterwards; I frankly expressed to
him my views on this subject, and he dis
claimed any disposition to press such a"re
; quisition. lam not aware that any other oc
casion has occurred in which the question of
lan intercourse betweenyour family and mine
has been presented, to me or to my farni .
I am, respectfully, your obd't serv't.

Alooily conflict in Poland—

treat of the Poles, kc.
-.By the .packet ship SylVanus Jenkins,
Captain Allen s the New York American
has . receivefl ales of London papers to the
Bth, and Liverpool papers to the 9th ult.
The news from Poland, though as usual
confused and ill-authenticated as to partied
lars, leaves no aosubt but that they have
sustained a disastrous reyerso. - Diebitsch,
in attempting to cut off the Polish -army
from Warsaw, a corps under Lubienaki,
fcitced its way through his columns at the
posit: of the, bayonet. This enabled Skry
necki to pursue his march.with the main
txtdy Lubienvki then forming the rear.—
'Upon reaching the Narew, this brave-of
ficer was again attablcid, an beingtiriVen
forward on the main body, h burnt the
bridge, "but not so edhctively," says one
account of this affair, "as to prevent its be
ing. restored."
'Accordingly, Gea.Schakoffskio, support
ed by a tremendoutisAillery, scicceeded in
crossing -the river. A most' violent com
bat ensued. The enemy vainly endeavor
ed to convey large masses to the right , bank.
Our-troops defended themselves most bril
liantly. The carnage was dreadful, and
lasted° tleveral houts, &ring which our
troops in vain endeavored to force the ene
my back to the other side-of the river, and•
who on his Part was also striving to effect

.
The' Chief point or• donteption was the
bridge;`anda long elevated iiike which , pas.
'sea along the'tearaby shore'cf the Narew;
and . th nature of gfisted, contributed
much to give the battle a sangtity Jury char
acter. They fought man to man, and thou
sands were killed by being - thrown over the
dike. The Russian troops displayed a de
gree of courage and resolution far superior
to what they had shown in the preceding
tart of the 'campaign. An unusual heat
increased-the labor-of- the-daY. The Rus
sians threw away, their knapsaCks to be
more at their ease. • At length, towards,
evening, fatigued by their • exertions, and
unable to overcotne the resistance of our
gallant troops, the enemy withdrew to the
left bank of the river, and we?] remained

which the Commander-in-Chief passed the
night, in order to provide for the relief of
the wounded."
Such are the main features of this san
guinary engagement, in which about 3000
Poles, including_ vvo,genoral officers have
perished. Quarter, we are told, was out of
the question; the chief wurk was performed
with the bayonet. Three Russian Generals
fell in the engagement, and even their crowd
ed ranks were thinned in this deadly struggle.
The official account is as follows:
The encounter of General Lubienski, on
the 23d inst. with the mass of the enemy,
apprised me that Field Marshal Diebitsch
was, with his principal force, on the right
bank of the Bug, and that any moment he
could rejoin the guards. On the other
hand, General Chlahowski, intrusted with
conveying support to our" Lithuanian breth
ren, having joined them, had secured the
object of our expedition. I then gave an
order to commence our retrogade move
ment before forces-so superior to our own.
OnAhe_24th_the reqerve, underlictl. Pax,
was at Stoeryn;" Gen. Rubiiiskr ode - ivied
the position of Crerwin; Gen. Lubienskt,
with the corps of cavalry and the division of
Gen. Henry . Kamienski, was posted near
the Nodborg; and Gen Gielgud marched
upon Lamzo, to occupy it.
Gen. Lubienski was attacked by the Guards
from Tykocin, and from Chorecto; at the
same time the army of the Field Mashal
arrived from the Nur.
I gave orders for our troops to pass to the
right bank,of the Narew, which was effect
ed on the evening of the 25th, over both
bridges, in the most perfect order. Gen.
Lubienski commanded the rear guard, and,,
to cover the passage of the army, - ke emu=
pied the heights Of Zekun and of.Lawy. In'
the - morning of the 26th; the positions of
Gen. Lubienski were attacked with great
impetuosity by the Field Marshal in person.
Gen. Lubienski, retreated upon Ostrolenka
making a most vigoious resistance. His
march was stopped by the city itself, which
had been set on fire by the mortars of the
en t etry ; but, after having passed . td the
right bank of Narew our army attempted to
destroy the bridge. Placed, however, un
der the fire of the enemy,- their success
was imperfect, and they could not prevent
the Russians from repairing it. This cir
cumstance enabled the division of grenadiers
under Price Pzakowskoi to pass over the
right bank of the Narew. The enemy's
division, protected by a numerous artillery,
placed on a position on the opposite bank,
commenced a yigorous fire. This, protect.
ed the division, and presented a serious ob
stacle to our attack. Nevertheless, several
of our regiments of infantry andother divi
sions charged the enemy with intrepidity.
The combat was for a long timeone of real
slaughter. We were unable to drive the
enemy across, the river, and on his side,
.with-the-- i gremtpat efforts, end - LW—reach
its right hank, and the enemy, who had ad
vanced mimerous columns,' was obliged,
to retreat. Finally, the Russians, exhaust
ed, towards night retired from the other
side_ofthe river, leaving only some sharp.
'iiheotets on the right bank, who also retro
graded as far as the bridge. Thus we re
mained masters of the field of battle.
- The'litittlirencled'art2'n'elockarnighc
I ordered the army tie proceed' to Puling - li.
This was effected withorit - the least- inter=
ruption on the part of the enemy. We
have not been able to aseeriamottfloss, but
it is considable on both sides, both killed
and wounded.
We have taken some hundred soldiers
and several officers. •

Of BELGIUM we hear that after at

choice of a king, she is once more, by the
declension of Leopold, set afloat upon the

gave in the person of his master to an ima

His Royal Highness hag declined their
crown. The protocols of the great Powers
do not assignLimhurg and its territory 'to
Belgium,. but these the*Belgians assume to
themselves without leave,and invite Prince
Leopold to govern the augmented state.
The result is as we have' said above, that
he has declined , the offer.
