If there is nu vo. ciip'ition w ithin thu tolerance

This hand of hirelings, who scribble for their

h ive contrtbumd more to degrade the press, a ltd

Fiom ths time that th* aholi’i'tn qttestinn was

they h ive been propog itiu ' slanders the moir foul
| and unblushing, against the ch:iract'-i of Mr. Van
Buren, and ih.-rehy furnishing food for the morbid
appetites of his enemies in every quarter.
In their fitters to ihe south, they h ive accused
him of f tvoring lhe schemes of the abolitionists,
I and in those to the fairuics of ih ; north they h ive
as openly ch irg.-d him with being in league with
the south, mi I dccid. dly opposed to ab.ilili ,n
But he was elected, and his Inaugural ad liess
has left them no gruuu.l tn stand upmi, iu rela imt

Ifyou were compelled to take the public acts
of Mr. Calhoun for a model, how would von
manage to reconcile his vote for lhe tariff in
1816, with his vote against it in 1828, or hi
nullification es 1831 and 1832, with his com
