The ntilltliers will have it that Van Bu ren is an abolitionist, Notwithstanding! his casting vote, notwithstanding as Hop kins Holsey, of Georgia, says in his late letter, tl.qt his “immediate friends in Con gress have been always found side by side with the South” on the subject us slavery, w hereas the whigs Granger and Slade and Others, have in ail cases favored the fana tics, —Notwithstanding in his message to the New York legislature, Gov. Marcy Strongly urged that the agitators, if they continued their incendiary movements, should be put down by the strong arm ol penal euactipents—Notwithstanding Mr. i Van Buren himself has time after time fur-! nished his southern brethren with the most | unexceptionable guarantees of his sound principles upon this std ject—the nullifiers! still insist upon it that Mr V. Buren knows pot himself as well as they do, and that I their aagacity has enabled them to discover in spite ofa.ll evidence to the contrary, that! Van Buren must be an abolitionist! Now let us try this question upon the! Strict rules of evidence, such ns would reg- j ulate the proceedings in a court injustice 1 upon an issue made hi the ease of John C. ! Cnlboun and others vs Marlin Van Buren. The case js regularly readied. The plain tiffrises and reads his declaration, in which' lie charges “in due form of law” that the defendant Van Buren is a most atrocious .abolitionist. The court calls on him to’ proceed with bis evidence—he introduces ! a bomb Carolina uullifier; the defendant’s ; counsel objects to the testimony because the witness is one of the parties plaintiffs; tiie testimony is of course rejected. Here the Court would proceed to nonsuit the plaintiffs, because they had been tillable to produce any legal evidence to sustain their declaration. But the defendant rises and says, “besides other wrongs I have suffered by this most groundless action, my charac ter as a patriot and a friend to the Union and my country, is deeply involved by 11m proceedings that have been instituted a gainst me. lam not content with being merely discharged upon my plea of not guilty, and the inability of the plaintiff strictly to make out his case, but the satis faction oi ail that this wicked charge may never be again advanced against me, I pre fer to introduce two respectable witnesses, whose testimony, if it avails not to put to rest forever the malignant aspersions of my enemies, why then it never can be done, “even though one should rise from the dead.” Andrew Jackson is the first introduced in to court —a venerable man, whose life has been spent in the service of his country, and who it is impossible can entertain any feeling in regard to the future, but a holy desire to promote the welfare of the peo ple, and the glory and honor of the coim- Jry. He states “that he has been long and (intimately acquainted with the defendant Van Buren—that before his (Jackson’s) election to the Presidency, be bad careful ly noticed liis private and public character, and believing him to be both able and hon est, and deeply imbued with the genuine principles of true Jeffersonian Republican ism, as soon as he was installed Chief Ma gistrate of the country, that he called the .said defendant V an Buren, to the office of Secretary ofStatcs, in which office he al ways found him as his confidential coun sellor and constitutional adviser, faithful, firm and patriotic. That ’;e Andrew Jack son, himself is a large slave-holder. And a citizen of a slave holding State—that lie lias long had his eye upon the ominous movements <>| the abolitionists, and recom mended in hi. last message to Congress the passage of a law prohibiting the circulation of their inflammatory pamphlets through the Mails of the Government—that when a .1 Wi, s reported by the present plaintiff himself in the pursuance of the recommen dation made, ho was not surprised to find' * ”■'jG'-'tidant Van Buren and his immedi-! nte lnei„|, t | M . Senate supporting that ■ 1 httew oetorebaiiil they would ! readily do fur the whole tenor of their pub- The Standard of Union. I lie lives, and from the opportunities he had enjoyed of forming a correct idea of their | opinions, from the freest ami most unreserv |ed private intercourse.” Upon the whole, : the witness testified, “that Van Buret! was > no abolitionist, but that his political prittci- ■ pies, as was his private life, were of the purest character, and that as for himself he 1 extended to the defendant, because lie tho’t 1 lie deserved it, his full and entire conli i deuce.’ athanicl .Macomd North Carolina, was next introduced, (this is the old man of 1 whom John Randolph said under till the i solemnity attending the execution of his i hist Will anti Testament, that lie was “/Ac hoiiestest tnun" he ever knew.) lie stated 1 “that for thirty odd years oi his life be had I been in public service—during that time ' he had opportunities of becoming acquaint ed with the defendant Van Buren, and ipr ' several sessions occupied the next chai; - to I him on the floor of the United btates’ Se : tiate—that he has always been convinced the defendant was an orthodox Republican i ■ I the good old fashioned school, and that I he would smne day reach the highest hon ; ors ot the country —that he (Macon) is a j planter am! resides on the Roanoke River, ; and has a number of likely and valuable 1 slaves ; that he has observed that the plain tiffs have charged Van Buren with being •in abolitionist, but lie knows that such js not the fact, and that the charge must have 1 been started by Calhoun, to break down Van Bmtm as was the A. B. plot to de ! stroy V. ni. H. Crawford.” In conclusion, Mr. Macon said “that he had for many years withdrawn from the strifes of public life, but highly approving of the adminis tration ol Andrew Jackson, and believing that Mr- A an Buren would perfect and car” iy out the good work he had begun, he had consented as the last political act of his life, to the placine ol'his name on the elec toral Ticket ot his native State,which was pledged to the support of M artin Van Bu ren as President of the United States.” Ihe Jury took the evidence ami have made up their verdict—lt will be priimm ced in a voice of thunder in all the month of November. Prcm the Richmond Enquirer. EXTRACT. ‘ J / out the Clh number of “J ieics n>)oit the Jlubiccn, addressed to the dr< eine.t rj Virginia, by the editor. It is time to terminate these addresses. The election is rapidly sweeping on toils consuniatioii. Within less than four weeks 1 from this day, you will be called to the polls. Why prolong this argument? It the words we have to address you, should linger much longer upon Orir lip-, they ' would scarcely reach the remotest borders oi the commonwealth, before you pass tin Rubicon. A few words more, then, ami we close the series of Nos. which we have | thought it our duty to address to the Free mew of Virginia. A re you for William Henry Harrison, or fir Martin A an Buren, as join next Pres ident.-' Ibis is the true issue which is be fore us. Ibe Western Whigs of X irginia go for Harrison. The Whigs from Poto- ' mac to Massachusetts, and on both banks' of the Ohio, now go for General Harrison. The most elaborate efforts have just been made to snow off in the Middle States, am! enlist their hurrahs, ami suffrages for the Hero of Tippecanoe. The organ of the Whigs in this city beheld in him “the next President of the' United States,” Hugh Law son W bite is now almost cntirelv eclips ed by the blaze of the military meteor. — His ticket in Virginia has been appropria ted by Harrison’s friends—and but for the cunning policy of some of the committees and the presses o! Eastern Virginia, which i are afraid to run up the flag of Harrison, ami are s.itll willing to employ the name of White as a decoy to the State Rights party, W bite would long ago have been “shoved j from the stool,” and Harrison proclaimed .as the only candidate of the Whigs. He is to al! intents am! purposes their real candidate. He is their strongest man be fore the people. He will be their strong est man in the House, if the whigs should j ' succeed in transferring the election to the I i tribunal. Harrison or Van Buren, is there fore, the real alternative which is presented tothe People of Virginia. Can you long ; hesitate in your decision ? Do you prefer the candidate, u!io lias' ! not one great principle in common w ith the ' I Htato Rights school of Virginia?—Take! Wm. H. Harrison. Do you desire to see a friend of old John ■ Adam s administration, elected vour next i President?—Take Wm. 11. Harrison. i Do you admire a Fed- ralist in theory— a Latiludinarian even ofthe Webster rchool? I a|u- General Harrison. Do you prefer a Latitiidimir'ian in his ■ policy and measures—Win. H. Harrison is - your man. Do you prefer a politician who recogni zes no perceptible limit to the powers of the Genera! Government over the raising! and expenditure of your money?—Take! General Harrison. Do you seek a candidate, who will raise I ! extensive funds by an oppressive tariff : ami who would adhere to the System, mi- I til the streets of Norfolk ami ( liaileston I ' should be covered with grass?—Then is ' ! the Hero of Tippecanoe yotir man. , Do you seek a candidate, who would ap-: propriate the proceeds of the Tariff’ to an il- ' | ligitimate system of Internal Improvement-, ! whether it extend to rivet road or canal i Then take Gen. Harrison, * Or, are you in search of a matt, who will appropriate the whole Surplus Re venue, to ! 'the “colonization of those that may be! I otherwise freed,” and “th'i purchase of the free.tom of others.”—Here is your candi-l date. Or are you desirous of the success of a candidate who would have no scruple in I cmitiniiiiig the Tariff, an.J systematically! distributing the Surplus Rcvemie, among V S'ChF/; liJLIE, B£TIJJESJDAY MfMttIWIIVCi, 1830.* " the States ol the Confederacy—arming the . v.vnerai Government with all the attractions • oi a beneficiary, am! convertitig the States into tne stipendiaries ol its bounty. - '—Take Gen.

Do you prefer a politician who is a quasi L ink man, ami has even gone so far as to ; say, that he might be disposed to support a Bmk which should ffici/ita/e,” tlie oper . ations of the Government ?—Then William j Henry Harrison is your man. In ;i word Fellow-Ciuzens, if yon desire •t Prr-iiert, whois a Latitiidinarian Imtii ; ill tneory am! practice—-w ho is opposed to . the strict construction school, to which you have been devoted for forty years—ls yon | w ish to strike the standard <if Jefferson— ' to undo all the services w hit h Jackson’s nd? - ministration has rendered—if you prefer a j President, whois unqualified, either by the moral strength of his character, or the ex- - tent of his civil qualifications, to conduct I the complicated affairs of your Government —ls you desire to have a President who will seek his constant advisers in Clay, Web ster and C alhoun : Then you have the can didate who has been already pronounced by the false oracles of the day, to be t4 The next President of the United States.” Lut, it you desire a different candidate, it ton desire one, who has adopted vour cre6il, and vindicated vour strict construc tion principles in the Senate of the United j States one who insists upon such a modi fication of the tariff, as will produce a re duction of the revenue to the economical wants of the Government—one, wno in his late letter to Sherrod Williams, disclaims a systematic distt ibiition of the Surplus Rev enue, but prefers “the only natural safe and just remeuy (or an excess of revenue, a re duction of the taxes”—one who maintains “that Congress has no constitutional pow er to make roads am] canals in the respect ive Stater, and he has uniformly voted a gatnst every measure calculated to extend a national system <>t Internal Improvement, except the Cumberland Road,* for which solitary vote he Inis made a public recanta tion. If you desire a President, who has proclaimed “an umpiallifled and uncompro mising” war against any Batik of the Uni ted States, one wiio has declared himself the “inflexible and uncompromising oppon ent ot any attempt toobolish slavery in the District of Columbia,” who affirms that Congress can h ive no power to meddle with slavery in the States, even with the consent ol al! the Slave holding States, without -‘a change of the cons'Hut ion," — who Ims but recently stamped itis friend ship for tiie South by his casting vote in the I Senate—ln a word if you de.*tre a Presi- 1 dent, who is a fi ir-ml to the South—and ad vocate of the State Rights’ School—and who will find it his interest, as well as his duty, to givetotie to public opinion in that quarter alone, from which the only dauger can arise to our Southern interests”—one, who has stood by our side in the support of Crawford and Jai kso!i—-wlio has done more than any other man has been reviled and! persecuted l.y its opponents-theii do we not hesitate to say, that Martin Van Buren is I that man. They have called him a Magi cian, as they oncecalled T homas Jefll rson. But l>is magic consists in his fine temper, his strong common sense, bis atlachmtut | to Republican principles—his possession ol those qualifications, which constitute the Statesman, and fit iiini for the highest of fice in the Union. Which of these candidates do you pre fer f We say again, cun you hesitate in your choice ? But if you were noteven dis posed to vote for Martin Van Buren, how canynu for one moment think of support ing such a politician as Gen. Harrison? Before any States’ Right man can do it.! he ought first to forget every 1 sson he lias ! imbibed from the Jefferson School. He ! shotild desire to see expunged from our Re- j cords, the report of’9B, and ail the glori ous which we have passed, a gainst the encroachments of the Federal Government. —But we may be told, per haps, that <f you do m>t admire Gen. Har rison, the V« higs have offered yon another candidate, in the person of Htigh L. White. Aye, the very wings that once abused Judge W Hite for the support of Gen. Jack son, and the Proclamation, and the Bloody Bill, are uow holding him up as an alter native candidate for your suffrages. B it.l’ eilow-Cilizens, what can have re commended Judge ’A hjte to their suffrages? or what entitles him to your support? Itis tiie course w hich he has lately taken ? Is it his becoming a trimmer, a turn-coat, and an apostate? Is it his abandonment of the best friend he ever Ijad, because that friend prefers another for the Presidency ? Is il, that Judge White hasihrown himself in the arms of the Whigs—ami lias turned his back upon the men ami measures which he formerly supported ? He once voted for Ta ney, am! last winter, lie voted against him. He lias in like manner, supported and op posed tiie nomiuaticns of Stevenson ami Kendall. Formeriyhe resisted Air, Clay’s Gand bill—last winter be advocated it. Bel'or? he was re-elected Senator of the United Slates, he emphatically declared, that the iuea of bis abandoning tiie’ Admin istration was all fanciful—Now, who is so violent agaitin it, a S Hugh L. White ? He well declined all public dinners, upon the ground tout it was indecent and improper lor him to appear at them. Now, who is mote ready to participate of tiie honor, anti to scatter hi s speeches through Tennessee? iVm.'ti he was first brought out, Itismnnimi- •mg band of 13 ( ii sl .| iJ(l|e ,| a || j nlt . nl j on t 0 ptosei ute their deign, in ease it should • arcaieii to tin ow tin-election into the House. But, they now see the evident icudemy of movement., ami they continue the nom ination ; the Judge iie'mg “nothing loth” to run any such risk, ami encounter any other sacrifice, to {-ratify lii, ambition, or satiate bis resentment. What I•it to him, that he is now found fighting side by side with ( lay, l--Inter or Calhoun? That he is now ai iayed among the bitterest opponents Osir timesceoice—-Oar i'c>eitctre}—Our J’eerty. “I tiie Administration, himself the bitterest of the whole; John C. Calhottn aio„e ex cepted ? What is it to him, that tiie elec tion may be transferred from the hands of the people to tlu- House of Representa tives ? Or that a latitudinarian in principle and measure may be elected ? Judge White knows that stick may possibly be the coi> sequence of indulging his own passions t ami vet he consents to become tiie tool of the Whigs—the very men who have abused him without mercy, and many <>f whom now dtspise linn. 1 hey disptse him as a trimmer, a turn-coat and a canting apos tate. If he should be elected, they tell us onenlv, that if they have their own views to promote by his success. Long since their organ in this < itv declared that “E- Im-o-d, if elected at all, by the votes of the Whigs, he will naturally and necessarily select his Councellors fr -m their ranks, and i modify his measures according to their i views.” Yes—it cannot be concealed, that the Whigs expect to inanatre him ns thet please—to regulate Itis Cabinet, and con trol Ids measures, to use him pretty much as a nose of wax in their own hand'. And is that the candidate. Freemen of Virginia, w hom vou would be w illing to elect ? Look, too. at the circumstances, tinder [ which these Whig candidates are presented j to vour support. The Whig party may' disclaim all intentions to defeat a popular I election, but such is the inevitable result of their movements. Mr. Bedford Brown well observes, in his Milton Speech, that “It has been reserved for the present time, to exhibit to our view, the extraordinary and truly alarming spectacle to the friends! of the Union, or of the three ereat divisions ! of the opposition, each organizing itself on geographical divisions, and each urtring' the claims of its Candidate, by appealing! to the utmost dangerous sectional prejudl-' ce.s. Each of the grand divisions of the 1 Opposition, though practising the most studied courtesy towards one another, yet mancettverititr to advance its own cause, ' and ali operating to one and the same g^eat! end, to defeat the Democratic Candidates) for the Presidency and V ice Presidency be fore the people and carry the election to! the House of Representatives. Here then, is an open declaration of war bv his politic al alliance, against popular election and the riglit against suffrage. It seeks to o vei’tlirow both, by united efforts to prevent an ejection by the people, and to transfer il to tie House of Representatives. Tiie, cause of the Democratic, candidates, against which this war is now waged, i, the cause of the country a-id the cause of the Union. It has ranged tinder its banners, tiie gn at body of republicans in the South, the North, t.'ie East, and the West. An Electoral I ieket is hi nomination for Van Buren, in tweiity-live Stales, including the two new ly admitted ones, and ail except South Car-! o-ina, who elected by her Legislature, which makes him, emphatically, the can didate U the Democracy and of the Union..’ ! — OMINOUS. T he first flag, say the Jlarrisbnrg Repor- : ter of tiie 6th inst. hoisted by our antima- ! sonic Commissioners on the spite of tiie ! Court House steeple last spring, in honor' ol the ivorth Bender, was composed of the ■ Union stripes, mid underneath, on a white field, the name ol Wm. H. Harrison, in big black letters, with sundry small sentences i 100 little to be read well witliuut the assist- ' mice ol a telescope. This for a time, like i the principles of the party that raised it, ■ waved proudly and fitfully to every wind that blew. Sometimes it fluttered north, ! sometimes south, sometimes pest, and somt> ■ times to every oilier point of the compass ; I but at length a storm came, and the rains beat, and the winds blew, and the stitching ■ that united the General to the stripes gave i way—tiie Union was completely separated, | and wh:*e the emblem of the Stales floated ! triumphantly in the air, the name of Gener al Harrison drooped, and wound itself a- i round llit flag staff for support. The stripes , wouki not support it. hi the course of time this flag was taken down and replaced by another of the similar import, in which the ingenuity ol the friends of the Genera! had to be put in requisition to prevent the former ominous appearance of the favorite standard. All manner of stilclting and contrivances were resorted to, to cement in separably the Utiitui and the General, but i it won’t do. Tiie winds and the rains of Heaven have again shivered it into tatters; its lower fastening to the staff’ has given way and it is now “streaming like a pieteor to the troubled air.” It will now greet the General, on his arrival in this place, which is expected to-day, more in shape of a tat tered, draggled petticoat, tied up by one string, than the banner of a military hero- Doylestown Democrat. l-'rom the Lynchburg (lazcttc. JUDGE WHITE. The Jackson Mississippian, speaking of the unprincipled conduct of the leaders of tiie whig party in forming an union be tween the While and Harrison parties, re in.trks;— “Can it be that Judge White is accesso ry to this corrupt and ineestueuus union w ith the w higs and nullifiersj 1 If he is, it is time for the honest of all parties to si t their face against a politician who has been the pliant tool of his political opponents. Let the people but once .understand the Iciigtli and breadth of this proposition, and the prospects <>f Hugh L, White are forever blasted in Mississippi. The whigs and iml i fiers may amalgamate in the support of General JJarristm, but no true republican I <>r friend of tjie South, can for a moment li ten to such a proposition.” I fiat Judge White is accessory to this corrupt combination between the Suite Rights whigs, mdli'iers, and latitudinarians to elevate Gen. Harrison t« ( tl e Presidency, tines it not admit of a doubt. His course sim e liis nomination distinctly proves it.— • • ■■ r 1 ft.**- - I For a while, under me vam hope that lie would be selected as the-Candida'e of the republican party, he solemnly protested that he would not suffer bis pame to be the means of dividing that party, and giving to its inveterate opponents a remote pros pect ol overthrowing the pt’foeiples which it cherished, But the moment hediscover ed his mistake:—tho moment lie found that i the choice of the democracy of the country i had fallen upon another individual, who stood higher in tiie confidence of the peo ple, and whose chance of se.cce-l was supe rior to liis own, he threw of the mask, for got al) hi.- professions, abandoned tiie ad ntiiiistration which be had been elected to support, and threw himself into the arms of Itis old enemies. From that moment we find kirn In close political association with the leaders of the various fragments of flte i Whig party, ready and willintr to do their j bidding—joining with Clay, Calhoun and Webster, in their denunciations of the Chief Magistrate, voting for whig measures which he had formerly opposed, opposing Presi dential nominations which had previously received his sanction and Itis votes, and e vincing a willingness and a determination to do all in his power to effect the overthrow j ot that party to which he was solely indebt . ed for the little fume and public confidence jhe had acquired. The Presidential chair I had become the god of his idolatry, and he w - as as ready to sacrifice Itis principles ns his friends at its shrine. Rut he is now re ceiving the traitor’s reward ; the scorn of the .friends w hom be shamefully deserted, and the cold neglect of those to w hom he looked for the price of his treason. MR. VAN BUREN AND THE CUR RENCY. GOLD AND SILVER, On the subject of the constitutimial cur rency, Air. Ahui Buren say»: That gold’and silver should constitute a much greater proportion of thecircu'a tiug medium oi' tite country than they now do, is a position which few- are disposed to deny. How great the increase, and how rapidly it ought to be effected, are questions in regard to winch a difference in opinion | may from time to time arise amongst men I having the same general object in view.— No beneficial reform in the affairs of the ! world was ever accomplished, in which sin - .- ! dar diversities of opinion were not found i among its advocates. But it is a consolaJ lion to know’ the embarrassments arisine ' from, that source have been overcome, and ! may be again. To protect the working i classes, (w lu> generally speaking, have no: control over ;i paper currency, and derive no profit from Bank Stock) against fosse, arising from deprecations, by securing a metalic currency sufficient at least for ail minor dealings, including the payment of I labor, the most important as well as the I most blessing use there, is for moneyv-to ' furnish a more substantial specie basis for; that part of the currency which consists of! paper, and thereby suve the whole connnu- ' nityfroin loss inconsequence of an v sudden j withdrawal of ccnfuieuce, should be our j first object, as our imperative duly. Other i countries are wiser than we are in that res- ! pect. England prohibits the circulation ! of ail bank notes under 5 pound equal to ! about 835; and France all under 500 francs ; equal to abount §9O; and there is scarcely 1 a village, or even an inn, in England, . in which you cannot without the! slightest inconvenience, change a 5 or: 10 pound note, and even .t|ioseof a higher denomination, into the gold and silver; and ! in France there are like facilities. 'lifts letter is explicit also. It is up t<s ! the mark; and without flinching or dodg ing, it goes for the suppression of the small | note currency, and fur the complete restor- | ation of gold and silver for tbe-currcncy ol ! the country. He does not fix tiie limit at which the suppression should stop, but lie quotes two examples with applause and up? probation; that of England, where ali notes under 5 pound sterling are suppress ed, and that of France, where all are sup pressed under 500 francs ; and shows tiie good advantages resulting from these-sup pressions in the abundant supplies of gold and silver which prevade every part of those counfrics, aad especially Infaet, there are but two denominations of bank noJes issued in France, one for 500 i francs, and tiie other for 1000; and .in Eng- | lafld, even Adam Smith, the champion of; the credit and paper system, expressly coy- I demned all paper currency under 10 pound I sterling ($48.) Even he was for confining bank tjotes to large payments, and preserv ing gold and silver for the common cur rency and daily transactions of the body of the people. But the faa is, also., that! even in England banks of circulation are j not necessary to commerce or manufac tures; for where is a greater manufacture I ing citv in the whole world than MAN-| CHESTER? ora commercial city greater j than Ll\ ERPOOL? let nedther ofthese i have banks of circulation! They have I banks of discount and deposits to lend mo ney, am! keep money, and to but’ and sell bilk of exchange ; but they have no banks that issue bank notes; and their accommo dations io the community, and the mer- ’ chant, are in money, i. e. goid, and in bills ol exchange. T his is a fact which should be known to some people, who think that comjnerce and manufactures caynot be car ried on witliout banks of circulation. Pursuing this intejest’mg subject, he says; It is time, high time, that we should re turn to the constitutional policy; and the first step iu the way ol reform, is that tiie I Federal Government confine itself to the I creation of coin, and that the States uffopl i 11 a lair chance for circulation. Can any one assign-even in a plausible reason why I the United States cannot maintain as staple a curi( ney as either France of Great Brit ain r None, 1 imagiife; pthe]’ than shat it lias not been the policy of the (lot eminent! that it should be so. In all material res pects, so far as I can judge, w e are in :tn equally lavorahje, il not a superior condi tion. Whilst both those counti ies. must re ly upon importations abroad for gold for their minis, we derive three-fourths of a iniliiop annually from our mines, and are besides nearer the great supplies of’ jn South America. Nothing, therefore, but a faithful prosec-uiion of tiie GeneraKGpvr ernmentand the Slates, of die policy oifhe present administration in regay i to a spe* cie circulation, is necessary, toplace usJph a fooling of equably in this respect wAtfT other nations. Such a result once accoih cotn| lished, it will require no laboured ar gument to prove that more will have Im-cOi done for the permanent interests m»d im provement of the currency, than was ever accomplished by tiie Bank of the United States, ortlianever could, in the nature of things, be accomplished by such an institu tion. We may find in what has already been done, (he greater encouragement to a vigorous prosecution of this policy. THE PEOPLES CANDIDATE. It appears from the following that the most ardent of Judge Wiiite’s Washinirton caucus managers, finds it necessary to con fess that there is no prospect of the peo ples candidate being elected. Tiiis comes from Colonel Forester’s home: From the MrMamviUe Gazette, Sept. 24. CQL. FORESTER—THE PRES IDENCY. On Monday last, the first day of the present term ol’the Circuit Court, tiie Court having adjourned for the purpose, Colonel ; I’oi estef addressed his constitueuts io the i court house in this town. His ostensible ! ! object was to justiiy his course in Congress . ! am! to defend himself against tiie charges I •oi inconsistency and political apostacy, ! preleried against him by tijany of his old : friends. '1 he Colonel was cool and deliberate! I tliroughout liiseffort; but we do not think ! he tidier euelits his breputatiou or liis cause, i lit the course of his address, he distinctly de i ciared, dial lie had no hope oj elect in er Judge ! i! fire by the People! This assertion as »iy ' think, seemed to startle and astonish liis | friends. Many seemed either mortified al ! tiie knowledge of the melancholy fact, erat I | the impudence of its r.dmissi.m, perhaps] both. The Colonel said that it was now ! ) certain that the election would go into the : House, prophesied that Judge \Vfiite would I there be elected. We were ficre some ! wiiat astonished that the speaker declined ! ! the slightest allusion to the memorable fact, ' that the caucus ot eleven, h lio mujv Uiot Judge a candidate, solemnly declared to! the nation, that Judge White should he j withdrawn rather than sailer the election to ' go into the House. As th ■ Colonel did nut attempt xo excuse the tinbius ing in- ■ consistency of these two as,er ions, we were ! left to infer that he cousiueis it, as all men | of sense must, utterly inexcusable.
