Nothing Il % CALLING to federal ran.
cor NJ the hcartwarm reception every
where accorded Is MI Van Burcn x
biz native state By his independent and
patriotic fellow citizens. Every art of
misrepresentation Is resortcd ID by the
federal presses to create d belief that
the Presidents welcome has been cola
and unfricndly. The New York Ex.
press and Commercial Advertiser have
the unblushing cilfontery' to declare
that the members 81 an artillery com.
pany, who paraded 60 salute Mi. van
Buren's arrival at Albany, were paid
two dollars each for their services
These federal hacks can form no idea
|ofan emotion that IS not excited by
money. They are beginning, howev.
er, BY this time probably to be freed
from this deIusion BY the disastrous ter.
mination ofthc bank experiment upon
the ycomanry Of The country, and per
haps they are convinced that the whole
United States are not comprised within
the limits Of Wall street. Two wears
ago a similar halIucination was wit
messed here, when the laws Of the ge-
neral gov crnmentwere threatened with
humiliation by m instruction in
Change Alley. That also ended in
smoke: and we have some hope that
for the future the bank government
will permit the national government to
proceed without impeachment from ac-
tual force.
Next to the cordial reception OF the
president in the State of New York,
the late elections in the West have
been d most fruitful source cffederal
bile. Tennessee, which was regarded
as forever ccaincd to the chariot Of fe-
deralism, completely royolutionizcd,
without the slightest glimpse ofhopc
to the opposition--a still more signal
change effected ia Indiana, which the
federalists In their folly mistook for
their most inexpugnable strong hold
Kentucky in dangcr--and the whole
West ready to throw herself once
more intot the arms ofdcmocracy-w why.
all this hubbub on the banks Of the
Mississippi and Ohiosecms asif it were
prc-Arranged BY the little magician to
rcsecho the shouts with which he was
greeted beside the waters Of his own
Hudson.
Whittier will the GREAr WESTERN
next direct his course? Defeat and
dismay have followed his track from
the West, and while he was assuring
his followers at Buffalo that his friends
comprised 4 majority ofthc American
people, the presumptuous declaration
was denied BY the voice Of Tennessee
and Indiana. Should he repeat the
boast at Saratoga, the denial will be
reiterated contcmporaneously by Hi
nois and Missouri, and New York her
self will falsify the assertion to histecth,
should he defer his return across the
rountain till the ides Of November

BEAurIFuL ExTRAcr.- -"Tho fact is
we have nothing to mourn about, Ten

could change; when she DID cosIE ovEI

| We find the above in little sheet, print
ed with large type, in Clinton, La; and
whether we regard the beauty Of compo-
sition, elegance Of style, correctness Of
diction, precision Of language and gram.
NAUTICAL accuracy, or refined taste, we arc
compelled TO say, it deserves notice. The
editor talks, in the first sentence, Of The
administration. What administration docs
he meant "Wc never imagined she could
changen! What a compliment to Ten
nessee! "When she did come over;" this
"tiid come is an elegant and new mode of
speaking. Where will the editor find au-
thority for it? Mythology has il that Mi
nerva sprung FIRM the brain Of Jupiter;
but it was left 70. the lcareed editor Of the
Wing to make known that man should
have son. We thought that il was the
wife of Abraham that had the child Isaac
by him. awe did hare Tennessee"
there's grammar for you! "did have" how
elegant! Where did the editor learn his
lcssonf We thought the sway to procure
(obtain) fayors" Tas to deserve them,-it
appears, however, that we were mistaken.
The Wing quoted us incorrectly but
that we expected, for the creature knows
mol WHAT Hc uOcS.
AS to his new hackneycd bee story, we
would say that his lack Of brain makes
him very like bee that has lost its sting.
And as regards hair on fly's head, if he
puts his specs on he can see it. Now
friend Wing, if you do not show out little
smarter, you will not make sport for US.
Hiss louder, shake your rattles and give a
flourish Of your Wing trumpet. "You

From New Orleans. we learn the Car

and that twoor three others will probably
bring their affairs to close.
We should not be surprised TO see &C.

tho institutions with no specie basis would
be compelled to wind up, and the country
would be rid Of the trash now in clrculas

or says, wc were reduced lower than the
negroe that the Northern Fcderalists
mourn over so heartily, and blame his Gre
ator for making him as he is. Have the
American people ever been, by weapons
of prescription, deprived Of the right Of
thought or action? Certainly not; but
the poet has license, and wishes, by pa
thctic strain, such as the one under re-
view, to create surprise and awake pity
for our wrotched country. A prose w,itcr
who would indulge IN such flights offancy
in defiance Of truth, and in contradiction
to common sense and experience, would
be marked as an object Of contempt, unde-
serving the confidence or notice of an
honest man. But the poet deals in the
language ofpassicn, and our author claims
the full extent the license.
We will conclude for the present by
another extract from "a Nullifcr, = No. l.,
in which the writer appears to have a
glimmcring ray Of hope thrown on his en-
shaved brethren, enabling him TO look
through the misty future to betterpros-
poets and better times, for his loved coun-
try:
"That cloud has passed away, and a

Such is the language he uses. The par
ty alluded to is that which before he spoke
Of as his country's oppressors. No doubt
that cloud he speaks Of is that that hover

ana, sc. &c, which has lstcly been ex-
PEELED by THE "sobcr second thought. -
