personal appearance, which has hccn ever and
anon them" of idicnle with the admirers OF the
dandy candidate for the p rc>idency, the New

This visit has given the lie very positively
and conclnSivelv To some Two or three of the fab
relations ofthc Ian Buren, pres especially those
which pretend to represent Cen Harrison as IA
broken down man, without capacity. He has
been seen by tens of thousands and they found
themselves booking upon man of plain farmer
like appearance, OF thin wiry and active form, of
quick and Intelligent eye, and altogether as littlc
like Gcrrcpitudc well be imagined. lie has
been heard, too, by thousands. and on occasions
when he could pot IN the nature Of things have
been prepared in advance, and his repli, have
cvinccd tact. knoul ledge, intuition, and prine-

pressed to others.
We lave no, doubt, if Nr Ian BURN ard
Mr.. Harrison should 90 forth together and unac-
comp,nied, upon tour throughout the United
States, and be brought INTO contact with the rro-
Pile, and thai the issue of he Presidential election
should be- determined by the impression respec-
