capped no doub. from the bustle and
confusion ofthe election, to recruit 10
this peaceable city. So good old fed
eral Connecticut, Hartford Convention,
and all have struck 10 the Jackson
flag. Miracles i, seems, will never
cease.
Iraveler. Yes; Connecticut has
gone for Jackson. How could we do
otherwises The old federal party, the
most true and consistent Of all parties
in the country, has seen all the princi-
pies they contended for broadly adopt
ed by Gen Jackson. What shadow of
excuse could we have for keeping up
The oppositionf
Ed. How cantbis possibly be, when
Democracysis the banner under which
both Jackson and Van Buren assume
TO march 7
Irau. Mere words. They march
under what banners they please we
require no declaration of political faith
more strong and unequivocal, than that
contained in the Proclamation and
Force Bill; the doctrines are even car.

ilion and others Of the old federal
school.
Ed. But did it occur TO you, that
these doctrines, like the general shifts
Of the administration, were only as.
sumed to attain specific object--that
there is neither honesty nor sincerity
in them2
Irav. Ii might be so considered, if
the measures Of the President were not
entirely in eons0nance with the views
of our political friends ia advocating a
strong government. The democracy
have too long ruled in this country $;
we have now the prospect Of overturn-
ing h, even when fighting under its We
ry name-breaking them down with
their own weapons, and destroying
them with their own men. All New
England with such views, will think,
follow Connecticut.
Ed. If that be SO, New England
may probably vote for Van Buren, as
the next President.
Irav. 1t is by no means unlikely
Our opinion Of Van Buren, is pre-.
cisely the true opinion every where en-
tertained ofhim--the cloak of democ-
racy sits loose enough upon him-but
New England men can more securely
come in under his administration than
under any other Of The candidates.
Ed. But Van Buren, being the can
didate OF the federal states, pledged to
their tariffand other interests, must lose
the south and west.
Irav. That's his look out-he is
playing his cards in every direction,
and can suit his views to time and
place. The truth is the democratic
states are all south and west.
Ed. What is not New York a de-
mocratic state
1rav. MOI quite as much as Con-
neciicut. WE do object TO some acts
of the President, but 10 New York ii
is total unqualified submission-h is
an unconditional surrender Of liberty
at the foolstoo' of power.
Ed. Very tile. But it is evident
that Van Buren would never be the
choice of the New England states, IN
less great object was to be achieved,
in which he 10 TO be the mere instrn-
