The Enquirer

WASHINGTON, November 13.—In the course of the correspondence, which, it seems, has taken place between the Secretary of State and Mr. Jackson, we understand, that Mr Jackson had stated that the despatch to Mr. Canning to Mr. Erskine, of the 23d January, was the only despatch by which the conditions were prescribed to Mr Erskine for the conclusion of an arrangement with this country, on the matter to which it related—that Mr Smith, in his reply, had assured Mr. Jackson, that no such declaration had ever before been made to the government, and added, that if that despatch had been communicated at the time of the arrangement, or if it had been known that the propositions contained in it were the only ones on which he was authorised to make an arrangement, the arrangement would not have been made—that, notwithstanding this assurance, Mr Jackson in his next letter indecourously used a language implying that Mr. Erskine's instructions were at the time made known to this government—that in Mr. Smith's answer an intimation was distinctly given to him that such an insinuation was inadmissible, and especially after the explicit asseveration of this government, that they had no such knowledge, and that with such knowledge such an arrangement would not have been made—that in Mr. Jackson's next letter, the same gross insinuation having been reiterated, and even aggravated, it only remained, in order to preclude opportunities, which had been thus abused, to inform Mr Jackson, as Mr. Smith did, that no further communications would be received from him, and that the necessity of this determination would, without delay, be made known to his government, with an assurance to it, at the same time, that a ready attention would be given to any communications, affecting the interests of the two nations, through any other functionary that may be substituted....National Intelligencer.
