VAN BUREN or HARRISON.
From judications which 110 rational man can
mistake, either VAN BUREN or HARRISON
will be the President.

they may close their oars against tlie warning
voice of reason and prudence, but wo tell them
now. and in due season, that the party opposed

of hostile* ha-.' showed themselves ami burned a J

tiles were discovered on the opposite side of In
dian river. Col. Lane, with the regulars, half a '
tnile in advance of the friendly Indians, charged J
gallantly npmi them, and drove them down the
river to a large hammock, where, being overpow-
ere I by .numbers the whites were furred to fall
back, at the same time keeping up a brisk fire.—
About this time the friendly Indians coming up. a
fight ensued across the river for fifteen minute*.

Van Bttren’s enemies now, were hi* warmest sup- j |j es except four viz. Floyd, Lowndes, Rahurne,
purlers four years ago; that, (according to their own
showing,) notiiitig has been done by hitn since, to for
feit that support; but that the whole ground of their
present opposition is for acts of his long previous to
■hat time—the presumption is irresistible, that their
support then w is mercenary, and their hostility now
rtrengeful; that they vere actuated then, merely by
the hope of reward; and now by revenge for neglec
ted services! The taunt continually thrown out at the
friends of the Administration as being the “spoils par
ty,” shows that tlie idea of ‘spoils’ is constantly before
their minds. One of the corrupt scribblers for the
.Messenger unconsciously admits as much—when he
speaks of “letting his children see when he is dead
and gone, how richly the Van Burenite.s rewarded him
in 1831, for his labors iu the cause of southern in-ti-
t it.u:is. m l li i-v 11 ircifully the comp issiouate'boweics j
of the said tribe yearn over him in I Slid.” This preg
nant sentence speaks more than was intended: it re
veals that he writer was not rewarded as he expected
to be in 1831; and that Van Boren then was oil the
side of southern institutions. This is a precious con
fession ; and not the less true, for its being forced out
by the pains of the rack! True the Van Buren or Ad"
laiiiistrat'nii party did not reward every one that hur
rah'd in 1831 and ’321 It not ouly did not 'richly re
ward’ them with honors nnd emoluments as they ex
pected; but it openly condemned certain of their
movements—particularly those in regard to Nullifica
tion ! On this subject they were distinctly informed,
that the only ‘rewards’ they might expect, were such
as were bestowed upon the enemies to the country.

give majorities to the Union ticket of 5 to 700.

If the statement of the whigs cau be relied on,
and General Harrison actually gets the votes of

to the people of the South, and a question of the
