graded ambition, the power and prosperity Of that
great and patriotic State and il is proud and snna
ting spectacle to witness the spirit Of unanimty and
determination which pervades all classes OF our c-
zens, with exception) rid the Empire STATE
and the country, from Of their most recrcant AMI
degenerate
The same indomitable spirit Of freedom, which WIS
invoked with such triumphant success, by our reyou-
onary sires whose blood mostened the fair lids OF
Lexington and Saratoga yet burns with unqusncha-
bic ardor in the bosoms Of their sons and certain
the Idcs Of November shall come will the vauntny
ambition" OF Mr., Van Buren, be most signally re-
buked and his prospects forever blighted, by majo-
ry Of more than 10 900 men, determined to be FREQ.
In the numerous conversations which had with
the candid and wenformed supporters Of Mr. Van
Buren, do ocollect Of single instance in wlliA
any confidence expressed that he would receive
the ofthat State So far from it, almost every n
diyidual conceded, that there was no hope for hin
there, say TO you, in the utmost confidence and SIN
cerity, that do not believe that candid and inte
gent man is 10 be found among the supporters OF M
Van Buren, in tina, State, who entertains rstnni
doubt that General Harrison will receive its vote by
large majori,y--and notwithstanding the boasinT.
clustering and staggering Of his anointed and adopted
Federal allies here, from Cooperstown Kinderhoos,
and other places you may rely upon it, that that STATE
is certainly and rcrievably lost to tho Northern
with Southern principles" they arc strangers
to Republican principles
1t is true, that the friends OF Mr. Van Rurcn arc
making preparations for desperate onslaughi, end
the means which they using hetrays their hoHc-
lcssness and will insure their total defeat There is
spice ofcoaTseness vulgary and falschool in VI o.
their inteectual food,' which they scattern in
such profusion that is not suited to the appcttes
intelligence Of the people Of that great and patriotic
State. The ISLANDERS Of Gundy-the faschools OF
Kendall and the disgusting and miserable fulnnat'ons
of Duncan with which that State is literally flooded,
will neither ALLEVIATE the affections Of pat toto md
intelligent people from the time honorcd soldier and
statesman nor create capital for tho man who has o-
trayed their confdence-whose whole life his been
characterized by the most sheer sefshncss-who
had lone feeling in common with the republican
pary'-who has always been the supporter OF Ultra
federasts and their most obnoxious princples-who
has no sympathy for the distress of his countryncn
which have been brought upon them by his NAL
administration and who has been justly compared
(by of his southern alles) TO "a whtcn-
ed sepulchre fair and beautiful to look upon but full
of corruption and rottenness within" Depend upon
H. sir, that the Empire State is just certain to
cast her vote in favor of Harrison and reform as
suffering and almost ruined people are Of having
opportunity Of placing their seal OF condemnation upon
the conduct Of the present iInbece and corrupt al
minstrs,ion. Yours, truly,
