How this insolent communication should
have received by President of tho United
States surpasscs our comprehension. That
it should have been made the ground Of d.
recting Court of Inquiry against officers of
the army, that they "patronizcd" Wings to
the "great wrong of the Democratic party"
is such an amazing abuse of power that we
can credit it only on the official record proof!
How would such an appeal have been treated
by WASHINGTON? Well did MIR Senator
HING say that our republic had grown grey
in abuses and corruptions before its time
But the result of this investigation is, a full
and unqualified acquittal of the parties ac-
cused. And not only so, tho court bear
testimony to the fidelity with which both these
men have discharged their duty.

The Sentinel thinks there was something
more than three thousand persons present on
Thursday. Quite Misunderstanding that
MIR. Van Ness could get only about two
hundred to listen to him the other day at
Clarendon! But why does Winsow tell so
foolish falsehood-a falsehood which at
least fifteen thousand persons can nail to the
counter, from their own personal knowledge7

To Ills Ercellcncy The President ofh'e q. States:
The undersigned have been appointed committee
by the Democratic Convention of the city OF Ba-
more 10 wait on your Excellency, and request the
Immediate removal of Major Lendrum and Captain
Dusenbury from their stations in that CITY. The
reasons upon which this request is founded are that
those gentlemen are employing the influence and pat
ronagc Of places to nure and persecufe The sup
porters Of the National AdniniStrahon-a course
which the former has been pursuing for the past SIX
teen months, to the detriment of the public interest
and to the GREAT wRoSG OF THE DEMocRArIc pAnTy
Exceency because all other applications have failed
to effect redresss of the grievances complained Of
Permit MS to assure your Exceency that no private or
personal consideration has influenced the convention
or any of the undersigned in this matter but they
have been actaed solely by regard for the public
good, and the JUST CLAIMS OF THE DEMOCRATIC
PARTY. Your ob't servants, ,o

GIN. IARHISoH IS CoLrMEus We observe by an
article in the OHIO Statesman, that General Harrison
arrived in Columbus on Friday last. II appears Hal
some preparations had been made BY the Wings to es
cort him 10 the town in the evening, expecting that be
would be so detained hy the eagcarneSs of his parlrzans
on the road. 10 have an interview with INN, that 1t w"nId
b. late before he would arrive, hut unfortunately to'
Whig-cry, II appears he was allowed 10 tfave! as GU
city aS any other county clerk.
On lie following morning We are informed, before
the General left for Fort MrigS, abe appeared ~ith hs
committee on the steps Of the Na'iona! Hotel. In
speaking of the "Confidrn;tal Committee, 1t appears
he would only acknowledge MAJOR Gwynn"-that he
handed his letters to MAJOR Gwynnr, whom he repre-
seutrd rs an uncd"cated person, and who calls in the
help of the Fcderalis;s, Wright and Spencer, 10 assist
h M in answering the Generals letters. He had the Of
frontery 10 allndc to General Jackson as his .fricad, al
though, amongst other proofs 10 the contrary, he headed
the electoral ticket of J. q. Adams IN opposition to
Jackson. We have not room for any further remarks
