Inhaltsangabe
Excerpt from An Address of Henry Clay, to the Public<br/><br/>I the charge bad originated with Mr. George Kramer's letter to the Columbian Observer. But recent disclosures of General Jackson and his partisans, satisfactorily establish that,although the sternness ol'mr. Kremer's patriotism rompted him to cry aloud and spare not, he must be stripped o the borrowed merit of original inven tion, which impartial justice requires should now be transferred 8 more distinguished personage. A brief summary of incontesta cle facts will evince the justness of this observation. It was the policy with which the political campaign was conduct cd in the Winter 1824 Â 95, by the es of the General, in the first instance to practice stratagem with my friends and me. Ac cordingly the arts of persuasion and ?attery were employed. But as I did not hasten to give in my adhesion. And remained most mysteriously atlent, in other words had not converted myself into a boisterous and zealous partizan of Gen. Jackson, it became na cessary to change that policy, and to substitute intimidation for blandishment. Mr. Kramer presented himself as a fit agent in this new work. He was ardent, impelled by a blind and infuriate zeal, and irresponsible, and possessed at least the faculty of clamorous vociferation. His letter to the Columbian Observer was prepared, and he was instructed to sign and transmit it. That he was not the author of the letter he has deliberately admitted to Mr. Crownin shield, former Secretary of the Navy. That he was not acquainted with its contents, that is, dtd not comprehendthe import ot'its terms, has been su?icientl established. To Gov. Kent, Col. Little.
