The attitude which Mr.. Calhoun and his partzans
have assumed i'll reference General Jackson since
the publication ofthc Correspondenccn has been dis
ingenious towards tho country and unworthy of can
did men, Who has demonstrated the unsutableness of
Geni. Jackson? Mr. Calhoun. Who has affirmed that
he was the 'vctim of political intrigue" mere pup
pet of MIR. Van Buren's? Mr.. Calhoun Who have ex-
pressed their disappointment in his supposed Justice
magnalnty and trmness and asserted that he was no

OF Mr. Calhoun therefore, once assume the attitude
OF undlsgulsed open and honorable opposition Let
them torego their hold on Cen Jacson's skirts Let
them cease to iced the President with sugar plums with
one hand and stab him under the fifth rib with the 9th

country from the rule of gfannyism and the malip

lead to success and that whatsoever shall be the suo
