! We might, upon this erpose, connected with the
former, rest the proof of the int,gues which are
on foot to place the election of President and Vice
President of the United States within the control
of central Junta in Washington, Of which Mr.
VAN BUREN's happy genius is the ascendant in
| fuence-of Juuta whose plan has been deber-
ately concerted, during the past Winter, tor the
Summer campaign. In pursuance of tbis plan, we
| find ground broken in the State of New York,
where most is to he effected. and where success is
most important. The whole scheme is founded on
the presumption that the vote Of New York is at
the disposal of Mr.. VAN BunEN: and the object
| of these labOred productions is to prevent any
" commttals" at Albany, where the Legislature IS
now in session, which may stand in the way Of
this hopeful speculation.
It is hardly necessary to point out to the reader
the following significant passage OF the above;
"Prepious he election of NJ VAN BrnKS meaning
his late recollection the Senate goud deal Of caution
was observed BY both parties la Albany-he might have
added and by one Of them a, Washngton.1 Since thar
event. greater latitude has taken place"
We see how intimately Mr.. VAN BuRSs's cleo

the language of the former essay from the same
Journal, places man before the country in the
position Of candidate for the /. hi.h Offices Of
President and Vice President Of the United States
is blended and connected with the projects in
contemplation for the disposal Of these :" high off
ces." The Advocate, indeed, throws aside even
the decency Of ordinary covering to the "vews"
Of which it is g the organ" in making the follow
ing naked declaration:
"Te control sytch this SGtc posscsss Tie prr

The object, then, is, to prevent any discussion or
expression of sentiment at Albany, lest it should
interfere with the intention to bargain away the
votes of the State Of New York for that sort Of
| consideration, or pre-eminence," as the Adyo-
cate has it, " to which that great State is entitled"
This, therefore, is the burden Of the Advocates

its arguments, viz:

Truly. if they /" commit themselves after this

is the Obvious determination that they shall not

against committal being that II is 6 understood to
