MIR. VAN BrREN,S CLAIMS.

Mr. Van Buren, has c!ans for the nomination, which,
in vew striking and pre- eminent and, through
the whole length and breadth OF the land, they are
felt and acknowledged. We pleased with the ar

Government The misrepresentation, ialsehood, and
recklessness OF the opposition to 1t, and OF the mia.
nous mems Iesorted TO effect his defeat OF h;s ed
minis.ra,ion he says conducted with simplicity
and integrity, and ability which, considering the
all.pervadng difficulties of the time, and the erceness
and recklessuess with which all his measures were al
tackled by an unprnciped opposition, reject the high
est honor upon himself, and cntit!e HIM TO the conf
dence and support of the whole Democracy of The
Union He has been tired by Mr.. Jrfsr on's stand
ard and found to be "honest, capable and faithful TO
the Constitution" Even his most relentless opponents
do not PRETEND that he violated the Constitution III any
instance during HIS Administrations either By assuming
power or evading duty. He found very after
his Inauguration, bsfre his measure or his policy could
be possibly developed general depreciation OF pro-
perty, arrangement Of the currency, commercial
revulson, and universal want OF confidence existing
between man and man. Yet, amid all this gloom and
confusion, well calculated 10 afnghten the hrme5t
