EDITORS CORRESPONDENCE.

CINCINNATI, May IL.
see in the speech Of Senator Grundy, in the
Ballin ore Convention, quasi appeal 10 Tie Post
master of Cincinnati, who was there, in which he
iusinuates that a committee or committees here go To
the post Office, receive ard open the letters OF Gen
Harrison and the Postmaster, now n Washington, in
pursuit Of a re-appointment renamed quiet during
this appeal. The statement, l be intended for one,
"a not oby false but has not even shadow Of ruth
to stand upon. and II not known 10 be false by the
promule alor vi II. was we'll known TO be SO by him
who was compelled by his humiatIng position 10
receive the appeal in silence.
The reiterated aud prolonged personal warfare the
Van Buren, party is waglng upon Gen. Harrison is
developing a feeling IN The West, OF which you
can have no idea from description and the insult
now put by the New York Regency and others
upon gallant fellow soldier OF Gen. Harrison at
The Thames will but add 10 tins feeling. The cor
rupt and ruinous measures Of the Administration
unquesiionably have powerful effect upon all think
ing men but The People ale rallyng rapidly now
upon and more exciting lssues--lhal Of the
last war, aud the battles they fought in it-whelher
they were well OF i'll done. You well know that
in the West, the leading and most eminent men OF
Kentucky, Western Penns, lvania, Ohio, and Indiana,
were under General HARRISON as volunteer soldiers;
and when Tippecanoe. Fort Meigs, and the Thames
are attacked through Cen HARRISON, the thousands
of volunteers who served under HIM. and " HON ne
always attached 10 HIM personal friends, feel as
II they were attacked loo, and they make il a per-
sonsl question.
1t does seem to me, looking calmly at things
here, that the People are volunteering here now.
IN this Presidential campaign, ust as II they were
To drive off Proctor and Tecumseh agaiu--ior the
enthusiasm is similar, aud the rush OF The masses is
81 nilar. There Is to be. for example, convention
on the ba,le ground of Tipped the 29th aud
people ate preparing their enls their camp equip
age, their forage their camp kettles, Dc, just as
they did when they rallied under Harrison at the
call Of Megs and Shelby IN the last war. Thou
sands upon thousands will be this battle ground
on the ooh. and il will be the greatest scene ever
witnessed in The West. do not like to use language
too strong about elections for they often I'M
certain. but can say wlth safety now, that Mr. Van
Buren, might just as well attemp, TO dam up Niagara
as to stop tins Niagara Of Harsonsm in the West.
