VI the long list Of offences committed bv Mr.
van Buren, 1t was natural that The Senator
should begin with those al home. He saws Gen
jackson has been separated from HIM and his
friends by the articles of MIR. Van Buren, and
he tells us Of his own zeal and devotion to th.
nero OF New Orleans; and read extracts from
MS own speech at the Waxaws, when he assu-

was "a sufficient guaranty" for the Generals To-
