The Senate of Kentucky is engaged in a singular
business. The ''Bargain," sc. is the subject of
investigation. The State has been ransacked for
witnesses, and myself included among the number.
The affair has become truly farcica. F. ?. Blair,
and Capt NJ. Harrison refused to be sworn. Capt.
Dayiess, jackson Senator) withdrew Blair, and Mr..
Dudley (Senator) moved to commit Harrison but
the Senate refused the motion. During the inves-
tigation have heard several good speeches. full of


interest, and mixed with much bitterness. II will


turn out complete abortion, most signal defeat.
Francis Johnson and L. Quares have been sent for,
but have not arrived. John Il. johnson former
y Member of Congress, and who voted for Gen.

"ln my last, l eniormed you that the Senate was
gravely employed in trying the President and Sec


retary OF State on the Jackson and Kremer charge
of bargain and corruption. The evidence was this


evening closed. and more complete Water-haM


never witnessed. The prosecutors jackson Sena


tors) have, throughout, endeavored to get off, BY


charging us with sitting the testimony, because We
preferred that David White, Formerly Member O.


Congress and voted for Mr.. Adams) who lives only
twelve miles from this place should be brought here
and state on oath, if he chose to do so, what thu


Jackson party wished to prove, that he had stated il
; loose conversations in the streets. &c,


The heavy responsibility of this affair falls OF
General Allen jackson Senator) who Offered thu
: resolutions to send for persons andpapers, and who
j. with his party, summoned and called all the wit
nesses. And while | am free to confess that WI


have acted, to all appearances, unwisely in this bus
II mess, in suffering ourselves to be dared and banter
e ed into it yet, the faiureI has been so complete
g that we much the gamers by the investigation
IT and our opponenss feel it most sensibly. Mr.. Joh
l. T. Johnson, and others of the witnesses stated
r. omh that they neuer did believe the charges of bar
of gain and sale," &c.
