for the reception of Mr.. VAN buren,. If
there is any sincerity in his suggestions to
his friends" about dispensing with public

the subject of internal IMPROVEMENTS

A similar game is going on with the
Abolition subject. Several active Van
Buren, men are now as active Abolltionists,

men. in the strong Wing counties, contend
most zealously for independent tickets"

Wings that Mr.. VAN buren, takes post
at Saratoga, to arrange there materials and
prepare his machinery for the reduction of
New York 10 obedience in November.
