TuE PRESIDENTIAL ELEcTIoN.

THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
We hear that M some parts ot the 1oh'
monwealth, efforts are still made to persuade
the People that the supper, OF Judge WINE
is inslncere, aud designed TO carry the elec'
ton TO the House. A letter from central
county, now miTepreSented by Van Buren,
lite, saws: ~ hIte will carry the county
in spite of the success which a miserable
article finds among the most stupid OF the
rank aud file OF Jacksonsm, namely, that
thus IS an attempt on our part 10 thro" the
election into the House Of Representatives"
That such is the design with which
Judge White is supported, is charged BY
the friends OF Mr.. Van Buren,, and is about
the amount of argument with which they
support his professions. Little Is SAID by
his partlzdns about has taienls-sef'ices-
principles THIS might provoke awkward
enquiries on the part OF The people, and
elicit knowledge OF facts which his TRENDS
are prudent 10 conceal-hls opposition 70
Mr.. Madlson-hls support OF the larlti aud
lmprovements-hs activity 10 urging the
Missouri Restrictions. Their game Is to
divert pubic attention from All ln,estlga'
ton OF his public lIie--every chapter oi
which is deeply tainted with latitudinafian
and federal principles, and furnishes cohciu'
slye evidence Of his hostility TO Southern
principles. To skreen hun from scrutiny,
they assaIl his opponents perpeluall!, and
with ski worthy OF better cause, labor
unremlttingly 10 draw OF the People irou
the true issues. These issues are--Can
the South be safe at time like this, IN 'o-
ting for President who has successiyely
opposed all her principles as they were IN
VOWED IN the Tariff anI Improvements =
who audiousiy cUHceals his oplnlon upon
the power OF Congress 10 abolish Slavery
IN the District who was an avowrd aud
active instigator Of The Missouri keslnc-
lions who moreover, IS dictated bl pow
er, and It's organized band OF place men and
office hunters These are Issues which
Van Burensm would not meet las, spring
which 1t will not meet no"-but winch
II must meet 10 April and November. The
time for dodsing and shutflIng has passed.
The time when Gen. Jacksons name could
be pleaded as pardon Tor all dehnquencles,
and succedaneun Tor all deiecis-that
time too has passed-and Nan Bureulsu'
must now come forth from the iaslness ~
which Il has skulked 50 long, aud see the
People, aud be sen by the people, face 70
face. Ii must 1T them know hIs history f,
his acts, his sentiments, and his principles,
and the distinct grounds upon which the
vote OF Virginia Is clalined Tor a supporter
OF Anti. Slavery Restrictions ana the iar.li.
1t viii be an evil day lnr the followers OF
the Magician. They know II, aud leel IT,
and are ANXIOUS naturally 10 postpone II as
long as possible. The p1try and shallow
, anliice they resort to N aid Of this, Is that
described abosr-accusng Judge White :
friends ol design To defeat an election by
the People .--oi design to carry the cleo.
ton INTO that House, where they, the friends
of Van Buren,, have boasied majority OF
forty, and twelve certain States out OF TWEEN
ty.iour III any BE- 80 stupid as TO credit
this soy, II would he waste oil words 10
reason With them. They are either ioo,s
outright, or having ears will not hear, and
having eyes vii. mol see. Never pfoposl.
tlon was SO preposterous. llargucs desper-
alton on the part OF hls partIzaus, and that
they are nearly ready 10 glrc up.-Rleh-
