Upon inquiry we find thrii the oflbndor is a na
tive of England, ivho came to this country some
year* ago, a minor, that he wa« bound an appren
tice to a painter, with whom lie served his time.—
We saw aud conversed with Mr. Purdv, in whose
service he wan lately employed, and learn that he
wns melancholy ami was supposed to ba partial
ly detanged. We also learn that of hue he has
Iroeu extremely quarrelsome, so mnch so that his
hiothcr-ln-law wtp com j rolled to turn hirii from
iiis house, and In* aligned to om) witness as a
is, as the Post calls biui, “an instrument in rhp
liamls of n party reduced to tliis Inst refuge of pre-
suii)pfu«uis tlcafTair,” he. is an instrument, in the
bnuds of tiro Jaolwin party > oj* that party which,
the Post obsequiously pillows, unless .indeed he
wijl have the iissi|ranee to declare that ail the
Jacknou pariy'^rc tiro “goods and chattel#*’of Mr,
Van Buren, arid are “mortgaged” to his views and
prospects.
First, we have ilie fears of the Post of Judge
White’s suceofvH^ nud \re must confess, be has
M»»mc ground* (tf apprehension. • *
‘That Judg'i White, by-consctuing to become a
andid^rft, might divide thb streuglh of itie domd-*
criillr party, ujid thus pave the wov, either b)r the
surfCSKOfihe ctkilitjon, or dvetiurnHy to wrest |he
decision of die. sepernt^ claim* from the hands of
the people, to place it In those 4>f Congress, is quite
evulent.”.
ft,, .hen jtj.'wthirted lint the Jh.Ijjn might dl-
yidc the Jackson party, (the INwieallsit democrat
ic party,.to<jatch support.) abd t!ie que^ttiin injght
eventually rfcvojve on Congress. What, theft ?
If Mr. Van Buren if the choice of the people,
arc tiro people*# reprrscnijtivc# lo*bft distrusted 7
Now we coriro to the coaxing.
Wc hope and1-trust that Judge WlntcJ will not
stiflcr himsolfjo he moile an inatrurrieat iu bring
ing about a renewal of su« h a national misfortune
a# tha Election of a C jtief Magratrute*' wlw does tint
combiits the sufTragcauf a* majority of .tlib people
i»f the BqitPfl Slates.
Oh certainly not. Judge White does not ex
pert to be elected unless lie obtains a - majority of
votes. *
Now then to a little flattery. ^
To the character arid virtues of Judge White,
and lo the couNo he has uniformly hold during
the whole period of his political Irte, so far as it
has come to our knowledge, wo boar willing testi
mony of approbation.
Now a littlo on the threatening order.
“Taking our data tYom the expression of public
sentiment in the south nnd west, in fnvqr of Mr,
Van Buren, it would fipjiectr th/ir Judge VV’hilc
canuot bo Prekident wihout tiro aid of the middle
democratic ^tatiM, or that of the Bank coalition.
Will the middle StfUo*, will tiro State of New,
Vork consent to waive the only chance she has
ever had of electing a President identified with
her poflhv and principles.'’ *
Ft pul all this flittering, this combination of
thretus, hopes, fears,'flattery, aud deuuneiutiori
Ntric have a right to infer tlrot th*m ia “trouble »t
tiro camp.” and that.getroraVJecksori, now that
the light approache-, rafjnnt hand over all Ilia

succeed-beyond doubt, no matter who may betho

We have not been able to ascertain that any
“Cxpren.-iuni of public sentiment in tit© hoiuIi ami

peared. It is nil ?uper#tJlioUBi«i\d. hringinory.

of Jndge While, for he must be n bank candidate,
lie must be a tool“ungrateful lo his benelac-

thinks if Judge Whh* should be elected hi# “meas
