u The Lynchburg Nlrginian announces the re-
tiremcnt OF Mr. Rves of Campbrll, from legislative
life; circumstance which unite with that paper
IN regret'ins. Our familiarity with the proceedings
OF the House of Delegates, enables US to declare
with some confidence that possesses few members
more faithful, vgIni and Jealous in the public ser
vice.
Mr. Randolph 1t seems was in London at Christ
mas and guest ut civic feast given on same cor
Poratc occasion. John Randolph Clay, is left to
play nj diplomatic points with Nessclrodc, the coc
quar- "i Met,ernich, Talleyrand and A'Court. At
snch game the young gentleman cannot fail TO
quiz winner, and we may look for n favorable id
jus'mcnt OF our territorial dispute OF the North
western Coast, and the most favorable terms in the
commercial stipula. ions with Russia.
Tho annals of modern civilization we imopnc
may be searched in vain, FOX parallel of the Rus
sian Embassy, and its concomi,ant iucidents-at
once so ludcrous AMI so scandalous-su peculiar in
the motives that originated it, and SO cratic and
whimsical in the cxecution--such on Ambassador
and yc Gods!-such Secretary of Legation to try
conclusions with Ncssclrcdc. What the popularity
OF Jackson may atcheve, what storms it may brave.
and what abuses survive-wa have partly socn, and
shall no doubt If we live, still farther behod-but it
may be affirmed, that he alone could sustain the res
possibility of this affair, without sinking under the
weight of national dIsapprubation.

From THE GLOBE
MR.. CALHOUN
We have Rood the address of this rcntlcuon 10 tho
people uf tho United States
The FIST impression made upon our mind is opo If
wonder, that man possessing Mr. Calboun's tact
and prudence, should have brought a subject of this
nature before the public. The only point in this dis
cusson, except such Mr. Calhoun has himself Gre
atcd, is altogether personal BY his private letters
and those Of Mr. Monroe, by his whole public con
duct, and by publications in the newspapers General
Jackson had been led to believe that nc had been
uniformly his friend, in the cabinet Of Mr. Monroe ms
well as cut Of it, vindcatlng all his conduct il the
Seminole campaign. Under this impression, he had
gwen MIR Calhoun his warmest friendship and frnes,
confidence Compelled at length, by facts and CIR
cninStnnce5, 70 doubt the sincerity OF his supposed
ancient friend, no determined to know the truth
| WIN this view, he obtained in an authentic shane
the charges which bad been made OF Mr. CaIhoun's
course IN the cabinet, different from what he had
supposed, submitted them directly to the person i'm
picated, and asked whether they were true Mr.
Calhoun admits their truth Gen Jackson Expresses
