by Mr.. Calhoun. But what we most
care about is, that this precipitated move
at Richmond, will most certainly be fatal
to the opposition cause in our next spring
elections throughout Western Virginia.
Why did not this minority nominate
for the Vice Presidency also, and make
out an electoral ticket? They were as
competent to do this. as to do what they
did, and thus have saved the people the
trouble of sending delegates through the
mud to Richmond in February next. We
say TO our friends in Eastern Virginia,
that the idea of dissolution, or of any
thing tending to dissolution. of this u
MON, is repealed Indignantly as destruc-
tive to our political happiness--and we
must now acknowledge. that we were
rather hasty in our general approval Of
the message Of Gov. Tszewell. There
are some views advanced in that mes
sage, if carried into effect, may have a
tendency--may indeed actually. disturb
the tranquility Of this Of all others the
most happy nation on the Globe. 1t is
very true, we ought to have such men
as Clay and Webster placed at the head
of the General Government but this is
not the will of Mr.. Calhoun and his par
ty, and, unfortunately, they have the
power TO prevent it, and will, through
Judge White, do it just as few Of Mr..
Van Burens partizans intended.

GF We learn from the print Of
contemporary that an arrival from France
at New York brings Paris dates to the
3oth Oct. There is nothing definite. by
this arrival. on the subject of our contro-
versy with France. The French papers
intimate the probability of the recall of
our Charge d'Af1aires, and say they will
also recall theirs, and await the Mes.
sage of the President, and the measures
of Congress. We think it very ques-
tionable whether they will have LONG to
wait, if this is their course. Old Hlcko.
