constancy with which he has adhered to
the majority. But let the Tribune speak
"ln fact, we know of but ono man now
living who has, throughout his eveniful
life, set a proper and patriotic estimate
upon party attachments, and who has had
the bolduess to oppose his party when he
believed it wrong-ihe courage to en-.
counter, in the true martyr spirit, The an.
ger and i'll will of the present hour for the
distant ends of his country's future fame
and prosperity-and that man is John C.
Calhoun; and hence it's that no man has
been so reviied, and has trodden SO
,hoIny and precipitous a path to that ex-
allied eminence which he occupies almost
alone in the world. Hence, the loud
mouthed clamor of inconsistency, change
of opinion, and want of party fidelity

Bile; but he was born for other and higher
purposes. With and eye that looks stead
tasty TO his country, he has pursued the
path which he believed would lead 10 its
lasting honor and prosperity, considering
party men and measures as ever seconda-
nv and subservint to theSe-tha only true
aim OF the patriot and the Salesman
Hence it is, that Mr.. Calhoun can gain
nothing by that style of discussion which
has no thoughts Of his country, and which
recommends to narrow party favor, |
fame that belongs to every man who bears
the American name.
The very recommendations to party
rob his character of portion of its lustre
and its renown, which in all its Inca
ments, Is American. Consider for a mo.
ment the dignity and reserve with which
he stands aloof from every thing that sa-
vors ofthe party demagogleism ofthe day
with what sternness he almost rebukes
the common usage and practice, which
would engage him in popular canvass
for the highest Office in the gift OF the
people. He goes on no electioneering
tour; he makes no electioneering speech.
cs; no festivals are gotten up at his bid
ding 10 create an excitement and manu-
facture public opinion. He leaves the
people to exercise their own free will and
sound judgment. His past life is part of
our national history which all may read,
and to that he refers as an earnest Of his
devotion 10 the true principles Of the con.
titution.

THE NEXT PRESIDENCY.
BY A DEMOCRAT.
No. IL.

Having concluded, in our first number
what we had to say IN regard 10 Mr.. Cal
houn's principles and character, we pro
pose in the present, to add, in further con-
nexion with the ground of fitness fol
nomination as the Democratic candidate
for the Presidency, few remarks as tc
his capabilities. Ii his principles are
unexceptlonable to the party, his honesty
above suspicion, and his steadineSs OIL
purpose worthy Of all reliance, the only
remaining consideration is his capacity
for giving to those principles practical
application.
No statesman 10 America Except, per-
haps, Mr.. Webster has his position, as to
pure intellect, so universally conceded, as
MIR. Calhoun. He is not merely man Of
talents and ability, but he is emphatically
man of genius-one who originates, and
who must, more or less, leave his impress
on the age in which he lives. He is not
TO be considered merely or even mainly,
in so far as he directly and Immediately
influences others. Each speech Of his
inspires, suggests, or gives material for
hundreds Of other speeches; some OF which
for general effect, may be superior to the
original. Trace ~ their source all the
nep ideas and neU arguments which have
been advanced for the last sixteen years,
Calculating the principles of free trade,
the currency, OF the peculiar relations OF
our State and Federal Governments, and
still more, the grand fundamental princi.
pies Of all governments-and the portion
assignable either directly or indirectly to
Mr.. Calhoun, would be a matter Of curl.
osity and asionishment. How often do
we find in his speeches an important truth
contained in some single piIhy sentence,
passing unnoticed at the time, which by
the progress of events, in years long at.
ter, is brought prominently forth, and made
the turning point oil controversy! Ii is
only succeeding generation which can do
full Justice to his efforts.
We are very far from contending that
genius is a necessary requisite in fulfilling
we'll the duties Of the chief executive Of
fee oil the United States. Genius, indeed
is so frequently merely speculative, that,
unless has DOGu GCSiCbS anu W oStuot
experiment, found 10 be connected with
practical ability, we could scarce venture
TO urge it even as recommendation. That
it may, however, be so connected, no one
who reads history can doubt. Indeed, TO
the highest practical ability, genius, or the
creative faculty, is essential. Hannibal.
julius Cesar, lhe Gar Peter, Frederick
the Great. and Napoleon, were as unques-
tiOnably possessed Of genius as Homer,
Plato, or Aristotle. Newion, Bacon or Nil.
ion.
Mr.. Calhoun has been called "visiOna.
ry," metaphysical" and "abslraci;" by
which it is meant that he is deficient in
good sense, sound judgment and executive
ability. Wherein, we would ask, has this
deficiency shown Itself1 When, at the age
.1f fourteen, his educalion-then, indeed,
tut just hegun-was interrupted, he Is
