even McNutt has declared that a portion

says:

From The Richmond VAR.
THE PRESIDENTIAL CANVASS.
A calm rests upon the political world /;
bu, it is the calm, which precedes the hur-
ricane. The boiling OF the clouds ond
the mu,tering Of the distant thunder can
not be mistaken. They denote, with I'M
erring accuracy, a mighty and convulsive
storm. Upon whose devoted head, it may
spend its fury, time alone can determine.
In contemplating the great Democratic
party closeIy, we observe state ofthngs
unpreced, nted in It's annals. tits no lon
ger unit. 1t no longer moves harmo-
niously, and with system and concert to
the attainment of a Common object. Ii
has too many great and ambitious men
of pretensions too nearly equsl for the
one TO yield precedence to another. Its
counc Is are distracted and its schemes
weakened or frustrated by the rivalries and
Jealouses If these distinguished s,l.seek-
ers. 1t is discordant as regards not only
men, but principles also; and presents
the Notifying spectacle Of "single righ,
transmitted" into half dozen wrongs. -
For according TO the best received au.
thorities and most reliable expounders oil
the Democracy, there is and can be but
one Simon Pure Democracy the rest
must be false. The Democratic leaders
themselves perceive and acknowledge the
force Of this deduction.
Ofthe several Democratic sspirants for
the Presidency, each conceives himself
the true exponent oflhe only true faith
and yet each differs widely in some i'm.
portani question Of public policy from his
competitors.
M. Van Buren, rests his claims on his
late defeat, his judicious tariff noiions-a
Sub Treasury without the specie clause,
and the love of Gen. Jackson.
Col. Richard M. Johnson advances his
services in the battlefield; his advocacy
of the protection Of American industry
and Bankrupt Law, TO emancipate poor
debtors indebted democracy of his
life. and his ready submission to the will
of the people. whatever il may be.

and Ills non-committalism on all the sgi.

And. Kate. know thy fluttering heart,

Before thee. ROBBED in light,
The enchanted isles Of welded love
Burst on thy rsptured sight:
And thou hast waved farewell to that,
And gazest now on these,
Where. rocking in the glitierng bay,
Thy baTque awaits the breeze.
And as thou look'.t thy face 10 flushed,
Thy pulse hath livelier play;
And still, as wider opes the scene,
Thy vision steals away.
And many an object bright and fair
Still greets thy wandering eye,
Where, in the circling seas embrace,
Those isles of beauty lie.
Nov lightly springs thy fitting bsrque,
As gently blows the gale;
And trustIngly on bending mast
Thou look'st, and quivering sait
And thou art calm--for thou hast given
The helm into the hand
OF one who'll steer where skies are bright,
And every breeze is bland.
Heav'n prosper well thy voyage, Kate!
Oh, it is passing fair
To see brave barque ride the waves,
As an eagle rides the sir.
We watch it with beating heart,
And with an aching eye,
Till it is lost to sight, where blend
The ocean and the sky.
