WASHINGTON, Sept. 18th. 1888
President Van Buren, is still recreating himself
at the Springs in Virginia, but is expected TO re.
turn to Washington next week. Mr.. Forsyth has
got back TO his post al the State Department. He
was received with the greatest distinction by Lord
Durham and his suite in Canada; andi is heliev.
ed that his visit to the Vice Roy will have bene'
fetal effect on the state Of our Canadian relations,
and tend to promote an amicabe settlement oil
the North Eastern Boundary difficulties. Benton
has gone at last. No doubt is now entertained
among the best informed here, that the Missouri
Humbugger was the author Of the Infamous AT
tack on the Navy that appeared in the Globe MIR
Kendall pc itively denies the authorship, and Mr..
PandIng, though he declines to take any public
notice of the paragraphs attrlhuting the lbels to
him. declares to his friends that he did not write
Them. Benton has often maj infested tho same
spirit in the Senate with regard to the Navy, and
used almost the very same language.
Mr. Didhie has recently established an Agency
of the Bank Of the United States of Pennsylvania
in this city: and the Treasury Department is daily
drawing it's drafts upon this agency, which are
pnid in notss signed by Nicholas Bdde! This is
the "Sub Treasury System in operation," which
has been snas'ed by the Gnbe and its echoes!
This is proof Of what Mr.. Calhoun, in his speech
nj Sandy Spring declared shat the long stanu-
ing connection between the Banks and the Cow
eminent has been dissolved!' NICK B1DDLE ACTS
AS A FISCAL AGENT OF THE Treasury!

Rarnws Rhert-wh~re the company toasted Van
Buren, as ga Northern man with Southern prin.

dness to go over to tho ''RoGUEs AND RoYALIsTs,'
in body. What must think Of such a IN an
as Jrhn e. Calhoun attempting t" connect the
question of Sub Treasury with Ambition; and to
hold mp all who eppose the former, as allied TO
the fanatics. Could here be any thing more cali
culated to hound on the Abullinnists, than to q.
tabish M. Calhoun's idea, that the late Of A DO,
i,ion is involved IN the fate Of the Sub Treasury
and il the latter is Defeated, Abolition will prevail
What is this but to say TO the Abolitonsts "Go
oa!-your only Opponents are The Sub Treasury
party, little remnant arraved under banner
isttered and torn.' The patriotism of the Anne
rican people has put down the Sub Treasury, aud
they will keep down Abolition, in spi,e Of the new
alliance Of Messrs Van Buren,, Keniall & Co. OH
the one part, and Messrs. Calhoun, Cralle,
Rhett& co. on the other. The allies trying 20

pose of uniting 'he South und then rally on the
Presidential question. 1t won't do. The people
