The Globe, whether as ''oifical" or suns
official " we are not informed, announces
that Mr. Van Buren, rides in an American,
and not in an English carriage. The naugh,
ty Wings, it appears, have put him into an
English carriage, with English horses, and
English men as drivers, and therefore, on
this account, it is probable The Globe thinks
it an affair of sufficient Importance 20 take
him out. The naughty Wings are very
wrong, and we must set them right.
When Mr. Van Buren, first came back
from Eng gland, he came back with many
ars,-wllh much of the petit maitre in his
manners, and more in his equippage but
the correspondents in Washington, and the
male society there, which, in the absence
of mems wives, daughters, and ady-friends,
is not the most polished in the world, soon
rubbed him down and brought Kim back
within the American pale. Mr. Van Bu-
rem, we believe, did bring over with HIM
an English carriage; but be this as it may,
the one he sported in at Washington was
splendid one, and an honor, if made here,
to any American who made it. His horses
were the finest that could be found; but for
this we do not blame him, as who would
not have fine horses when he could but get
them His servants-and this was a piece
