From the Southern Recorder.
Were there no specific ohjec ions to the
administration of Martin Van Bureu, we
should hold it the duty of every man who
wishes well to the free institutions of the
country, and who desires to see them per
petuated, to condemn in the strongest man
ner, by opposing his re-election, the Anti
Republican mode by which he was foisted
into tiie office at first.
No Prince in Europe ever succeeded to
the throne by right of succession, more ~
fact than Martin Van Ruren was placed m
the Presidential chair by the nomination, and
through the influence of his predecessor in
office. We presume that no man, whethei
friend or foe of Air. Van Ruren, w ill b*
found so uncanded as to say that Martin
Van Ruren stood the smallest chance ol
election to the Chief Magistracy, on his own
merits or on his own popularity; and none,
we presume, will confess such ignorance of
political events, as to deny that the influence
l icking, was alfotded by the irifliiet.ee and
efforts of his predecessor. Every one knows
that .Mr. Van Ruren was the designated sue
cessor to the Presidential Chair, by its for
mer occupant Andrew Jackson, and that
the combined popularity and influence t f
Gen. Jackson and hisoffice, effected the suc
cession.
The precedent is a most ominous one.
Ii Presidents are to name their successors
—it tile precedent is allowed by the peop:e
of the United .States, ue should like to know
how far is our remove from the system of
legiumatq, succession of monarchical Eu
rope ?
We are here reminded of an admirable
anecdote ot the fiuiher of I■ is Country, oi
singular pertinency to the point in band it
will lie remembered by those intimate with
t ie biography o! General Washington, (and
who is not I) that he was presented by a pa
riotic British nobleman with a box made
from the tree in which the celebrated Sir
V illiam Wallace found a refuge from ilie
lues of bis country and himself; a present
singularly appropriate—a memento of one
of tiie must illustrious heroes and patriots ol
the Old World, c onfided to the keeping ol
the hero and patriot ol the New. Super ad
ded to the gilt was a request of the giver to
Gen. Washington, that at his death he
should leave the box to "the next most w or
thy.” Coercions of the great and just
weight ol his personal influence with the
people of the United Slates, and with a
patriotic jealousy of the evil to be appre
hended to «lie cause of freedom from the
exercise ol such influence sway ing the bal
lot box, with the wisdom and patriotism so
consonant with his character, (his illustri
ous man, at his death, left the box to be
returned to the donor, declining to throw
tiie overwhelming weight ol Lis. name, into
the scale o! tiny man, howevermnch he might
•»' esteemed or trusted by himself. An ad
mit .re i 1 1 Urst -ration ol the republican purity
and consistency of the great patriot.
How did General Jackson act with Lis
; real popularity ? Was it nra thing in ac
cordance withtke tcsductof the illustrious
V\ .’.shmgton ? Alas, alas, not satisfied with
w ielding all the influence of his great pop
ularity, and all the power of his office, in be
half ol his pet and protege, Martin Van Ru
ren, he even repudiated his oldest and best
and most faithful friends—friends who had
stood by him in weal and in woe, in storm
and in sunshine-—because forsooth, they
would not allow their devotion t* Andrew
Jackson, to bend them to the golden calf
that lie commanded them to worship. Rut
enough o! such humiliating rtminiscer.scs;
it is enough that Martin Van Ruren was fois
ted into the l’rcsidential chair, by the will
and command of his predecessor ; and were
there no other objection to tbe man, this is
more than enough to defeat his re-election,
with ail who wish to preserve this land of
freedom from assuming the character in far;,
whatever it maybe in name, ofa limited
monarchy —by which the Executive att
ihoiiiy is to he tianstTiilted in succession,
by tiie will of the incumbent, instead ol
bring as it should be, the delegated trust
conferred by the people on one of their fel-
Iccitizcns, to perform tlieir will.
Another Sub-Treasurer Off--- A letter
Irwin Livermore, in Oxlohl County, Maine,
published in the Boston Atlas, stales that
Uni. Andrews, a famous J.oco Foco of that
(. utility, has absconded with Couutv funds
to the amount of L4OOO. He was treasurer
oft he town where be lived. He was reputed
bv bis Loco b oco friends to be one of the
‘•smartest kind” of men, arid was talked of
as the successor of .Mr. Vigal Delphini
Parris in ('ongtess.

Tbe Joint commission. — In the Kcnmb
rrk Journal ol May L’lst, we published the
letter <:( Mr. Stevenson, our Minister in
Lot don. with an extract from a communi
cation ol Lord Palmerson. of April 3, pro
posing a joint commission to survey and set
tle tbe Northeastern Roundary Line, from
wh ch we learned that the Rrinsli Govern
ment had simmiited to ours a “draft ofa
Convention for t h ■ purpose of regulating
the preceding:* el the Commissioners.’’—
Until recently we have been in ignorance, of
the nature of this “ Irafi,” but arc now com
pelled to say that our worst apprehensions
are fully realized. We are not able to in
lorm our renders by autlinruy of the precise
terms of this “draft,” but can say that* lltet/
are tsholy inatlmiisable.
-Mr. b orsyih, tiie U. S. Secretary of
•State, has hern here, where the Governor
ami ( ouiieil are in session. While in Port
land last week, he had a conference with
Gav. Fairfield, Mr. Williams, Gov. Kent,
Cos!. Davies, and others, who met him
tnere on his invitation, and submitted to
them the proposition of the British Govern
ment. They were unanimous in the opin
ion that Maine could not agree to it, and
they regarded it only as calculated, if not
designed, to m»ke a further and severe test
of tli ! patient forbearance of the stale, by
delaying any equitable settlement.
What action the Government and Coun
cil may take on the subject, we du not know
but understand that the Governor and the
other gentlemen who were "otisulted at
Portland, complied with Mr. Forsyth's re
quest, by making a counter proposition,
such, as they thought, Maine would agree
to.

lie is driven from the field as candidate for

find repose in the bosom of his family, and

he will lie set down by every one who peeps

FOURTH OF JULY AT LUMPKIN
A large and respectable number of the
citizens of Stewart county assembled at
Lumpkin on the 4tli inst. to Celebrate our
National Anniversary. At twelve o'clock,
the procession was formed, and marched to
the AI.E. Church; alien the throne ot
grace was addressed by the Rev. Mr. Ta'ly;
afterwhic.li, the Declaration of Independence
was read by Dr. W. A). Hardwick, and was
then followed by an Oration from J. M.
Mitchell, Esq. in" a patriotic strain of elo
quence, which was received by the audi
ence with great applause. Procession was
again resumed in the same order, and
marched a few hundred yards to a beautiful
grove near 'Greshams Sp'ing,’ where a
sumptuous dinner was prepared by the Com
mittee of Arrangements selected tor the oc
casion. The cloth being removed, the table
replenished, with a bountiful supply of the
choicest wines—the following toasts were
drank—nothing transpired to mar the pleas
ures of the day.
REGULAR TOASTS.
1. Our Nations! Anniversary ; If we are
once more found celebrating its return uni

7. Nullification; There is not a State in
lb* Union; when she fo , *!s that her rtgh'i
ate trampled on by a gross,, deliberate and
palpable usurpation on the part of the Fed

this remedy. (6 cheers.)
8. The Sub-Treasury Scheme; A cun

sources of corruption, in lieu of one, the
“open Sesame,” of Government knaves and
loafers around the public purse.
(9 cheers.)
8. The late Treaty of peace with tiie
