We insert, to-day, note from MT VAp ], BUREN, disavowing his connezion with thu
 conspiracy against the Vice President. |
 came to us about nine o'clock, just before oui paper went to press We have had scarcely
 time to read it deliberately, much less for the
 expression of all the remarks which it's peru
 sal suggested.
 It is as, we expected! From the time we read the Correspondence, we did not doubt that those who were connected with this ul plot wculd be anxious to escape from it, How far the disavowal of these whom circum- stances strongly indicate to be connected, may be considered sufficient for their acquittal, we leave the public to judge.
 MT Van Buren has certainly made one most LII guarded expression. He asserts, that he had no niotive CT q, sire to create an impress sion to the prejudice of MT Calhoun in the good opinion of Gen. Jackson If he had no motive to get up this plot gpho had' Gen. Jackson had no motive. We defy any man to point cut the least possible interest which he could have had in it. Its tendency is to divide and distract his friends; to weaken and
 barrass hs M.i5 a9nSt2tqnr sfts sb qnromnent nS figure il this affair, could have had no motive of his oqrn. MT Calhoun did not stand in Ais way. MT Crawfcrd is clearly acted upcn as t relates to MT Hamilton. This appears by MT Forsyth's letter to MT Hamilton. As to Mir ForSyth, whose name appears, we take 1t for granted that MT Van Buren himself will net desire to hold him up as the prime mo- yer. As to MT Balch and Major Lewis, the ether names which appear, we make no re- mark.
 d7,' Fam Buren TO motipen Does he not aspire to an higher officer Have net hisfriends held him up as aprominent candidate for that office, and did not paper in Georgia, in his interest, gravely predict, at the very com mencemcnt of the administration, that this very affair would lead him into the favor of Gen Jackson to the exclusion of the Vice President, and thereby present the ladder for promotion.
 The assertion is unfartunate; but this is not his only misfortune It so happens that net name has been presented in connexion with this transaction, but of those who are the pc litical friends; we believe we might say, the personal, p' litical and confdential friends and correspondents of MT Van Buren. MT Van Buren is known to have unlimited influence over his political partizans, and we do hold it almost miraculous that d subject of so much import to himself, should be agitated by these friends, with ut his knowledge or particlpa- tion; and that the scheme should be matured here, i,t this citg, while he was present, by one so much ill his confidence, who was piac- ed as his substitute in the Department ct State, and who had recently acted as his re- presentatiye at Nashville and New-Orleans, without his advice, countcnance, or know ledgcI It may be, but if so, the age of mira cles has not passed.

 NY xN=fUREN desITes us, Tn relatlcn to inc correspondence between the Vlce fresi- dent and various ether persons, when nas recently appeared, to make the following statement in his behalf.
 He observes that an impression is attempt ed to be made upon the public minti, that ser tain applications by James A. Hamilton ESq. of New-York. to MT Forsyth, the one m Febrnarv 7. 1928, and the other last winter, and a similar one to the Vice President, for information in regard to certain cabinet trans actions during the administration of MT Mon roe, and which are referred to by the latter c.ntleman. were so made by MT Van buren's sdv;ce or procurement Leaving the motives and obiects of those applications, to those who nav deem it necessary to notice them, Mr Van Buren ayers that they, and each or them were not only made without agency or any description on his part, but also without his knowledge; and that he has, at no perlo;uS, ;.S taken any part in the matters cohnec,su wi.,' them, He desires us further to say, thae eve ..- ry assertion, or insinuation, whicn nas im '.s object to impute to him any partlc'patao', ,hs m, at3emnts snpposed to have been made in the years @ 1897. and 1928, to prejudice the Vice President in the good opinion of General Jack son, or at any time, is alike unfounded ana un. just. He had no motive or desire 10 clesss S,.;e such an impression. and neither took: a.,s aasIS ed, nor countemanced, directly, or mo,reouy anv stems to effect tha. object For the cor !, rectnes ss of the SC declarations, he appears WI, a confidence which de6es contradiction' 10 al who have been actors in the aomit'eu .., uan. , actions referred to, or who possess any know s ledge on the subject. .o.,
