TO THE EDITORS or THE ENQUIRER
GENTLEMEN lit is doubtless with vou as il i, with
all who really the friends OF President Jackson and
who really desire 10 him reelected, cause Of deep
regret that some processing to be friends OF the present
administration, should deem their Duty still TO press the
prrensi"ns OF Judge Barbour Tor the office OF Vice Prcs
dent 1t is evident, has been already remarked in
former number OF your paper that by persisting in the
spu double ticket the State OF yirrui, (which all
Admit TO be decidedly Jackson) may be given Mr. Clay
and Sergeant Seeing this, all must il il not cno,ig
TO shake ones faith in The purity and truth OF
in favor OF the present administration 10y gepenen) who
sui eelesy and reckessy press the ticket lately formed
and submitted by the Charlottesville Central Committee?
Are not the friends OF Clay already eSung in the belief
that this division in the Republican ranks result in
the election OF their avorc candidate lao are reoiced
10 see Tins state OF things existing in Virginia; The enc
mics OF Andrew Jackson If such state of things is not
to benefit The federal party, why the Opposition
taking such active pant in the formation of the Rcpub
lican ckeI' Why Will the Republican secedcrs from the
Legislative caucus take counsel from the enemies OF An
drew Jackson! Why 40 the federal urge upon the Re-
Publicans the support OF Judge BARBOUR Are they his
Pohucai friends! No IL is not that they love Barbour
more but that they love Jackson less II they believed
that Judge Barbour could, in any possible contingency
succeed over their avorite candidate John Sergeant his
preensons would not be urged by presses in the
service OF the Opposition. Is il apparent the ene-
mics oil Andrew Jackson, must be all his friends
who are awake that division in ranks probable sue

knowedged and avowed, in OF their profgate
reckless papers Judge Barbour individual Of noble

badly not been surpassed by any in this Union in his de-
voion TO principles which Virginia holds DEAR in her OBJ
lgalohs 10 herself and the Unon one, whom would
have been more proud than myself haze elevated
10 Tie oce oil VICE President OF the Unted States But
shall we be bndy bound and led support individual
oil whose success entertain rational hope!
Shall we fold arms, because succeed in our
nrst choice, ana give the victory Is
not MIR. Van Buren, a Republican too? lie is one .
AMI almost ot the Virginia School Is not that fact evil
denced by his rejection in the Federal Senate last
Winter Is II not further evidenced by his political

Clay and his Bank partizans? Martin Van Buren, il dis
lnsuished for his opposition 10 almost every scheme in
the support OF which Mr. Clay has distinguished himself
as being particularly obnoxious TO the Republican party
Mr. an Buren, then, Should lie the choice OF all the
friends OF Republican Government throughout the Union
over Mr. Sergeant any her individual who has so
completely Identified himself and his destiny with Mr.
Clay Ii the real friends OF General on in Virginia
yet come 10 the polls, the issue cannot and will not be
doubtful Nore0I friends OF President Jackson or his adj
minsration, can will support Judge Barbour if thev
beueve that 10y such support, Andrew Jackson may hc
defeated could almost venture predict the success Of

ranks, might with safety say, at should succeed by
majority OF at least 10 To /. On the first Monday in
November next the friends of The Union and Andrew
Jackson will be found the sidc and the friends of

publican viii be al his post. Messrs. Editors would il,
not be well To inform the people each OF Your papes
before The election, distinctly when and where the cleo
TO Andrew Jackson will be kept from the polls under :,
mistaken impression. The Impression was general among
The people, that the election would take place the second
Monday IN November, instead OF the first Let the Re-
