TEE VAN buren, MEETING IN TIE IARh last
evening was attended, if we may Judge from aE'-
ocarances, By good proportion Of those whose
names were signed to the call, though there were
probably less persons on the ground than III the
napsr The reason OF this is partially explained
by |. handbl issued during the day stating that
many of the signers and among them Judge
Noah, had affixed their names t,oo or three t"'eS'
whereas they could attend but onee:-that large
number of the signers were infants-not able yet
to leave the nursery that many others, as for ex-
ample John Tyler and R. M. Johnson, were out
Of the State and could not come; that the names
OF two others, as that Of James I. Brady, had
he,, forced and that Of the rest 2644 were Office
holders. either some of the State or City Depart
ments. and were therefore probably prevented
from attending by the discharge of their duties.
Taking these facts into the account the Van bu-
rem people did very we'll in collecting some
what LARGER number than the friends of Mr. Cal
houn.
The proceedings were not very orderly, we are
sorry to say. Apparently some of Mike Walsh's
gang had taksn possession of the stand; and as
a Mr.. G., f, Newman, a watchman IN the Custom
House, attempted to cal the meeting to order ne
was hustled down by some one who nominated
Hon. CAMrBELL ?. WHITE for President Tie
was elected with about score OF Wee Presidents
and Secretaries. Tuos. N CARR, Esq then at
tempted to read a string of resolutions, but they
were snatched from him and torn in pieces, and
p General row succeeded. Meantime messcn-
ger was despatched to the Plebeian Office for a
new set Tranquility was soon partially restored
and Mr.. Carr read the resolutions. They re-
spond to the proceedings of the Syracuse Con-
yention, gorify the sage of Underwood and speak
tolerably well of Mr. Calhoun and other Loco
Foco aspirants. They were passed by large
majority. MIR. Carr then attempted 10 make u
speech, but only half succeeded by reason Of the
noise
When he had concluded Attorney General
BARKER was loudly called for, came forward and
commenced the usual Loco Foco compliments
to the people for having been cheated and cor
rup,ed in 1910. His speech was mostly devoted
to slorfcation of Van Buren, and Democracy
In general.
He concluded by exhorting the party to be
united, and said he would cordially support any
candidate the National Convention should nomi-
nate. whether that man should be Van Buren,,
Calhoun, Johnson, or even John Tyler
When Mr.. Barker had concluded, what few
were left on the ground became ciamorouS for
Mike Walsh, who spoke a few words, saying he
had not come there to make speech. but to re-
e .6ot
tempt had been made to put him down, but he
defied the whole gang, calling them office-hold-
ers. thieves, and all the other hard names in his
private lexicon. He said it was meeting in ia-
ror of Mr.. Van Buren, for the Presidency, and he
was not in favor of him. and therefore had no
more to say. The meeting was soon dispersed by
a thunder storm.
