In the Standard Of March Sth, ls43,
iad the following -" Ii will be recollected
That il was suggested short time ago, that
the friends of Mr.. Van Buren, be laid on the
shelf; that oil tue leading men Of that par
~ be set aside, 10 make room for a new
class arranged under the auspices of Mr.. |
Calhoun. Never believe this TO be fie-
ton, incredible as il may appear. Matter (
Of this import appeared in the Mecklenburg
Jetfersonian. Does not this look like pros
crlptlon :"
We are informed then on the s,h Of
March by our own paper-lor it was ours
ihen-that Van Buren, is to be set aside for
Calhoun. Again, from the same paper
LOOK OUT"
"The Calhoun papers come out with the
nomination Of that gentleman for President,
and no complaint is made from any quar-
ter. But the Standard announces lis pref
ereuce for Van Buren,, aud insult follows
from the Calhoun Press"
Again" So long as the Standard is ST
len, on the subject, all is we'll but as soon
as Mr.. Van Bnren's name is announced
some few sprigs of the Chivalry stop the
paper, and say they cannot support a paper
that sustains Van Burea."
Look TO the Standard Of March Is

Let US now look into this paragraph, and
We shall find much more than appears q.

speaks truly, this ID. h. McRae is a special
pet OF the Administration, and deserer

And lei me here warn you, not TO heed The

+ From this date, The Standard becomes
wondrous afectionale towards the Nulhffi

where an article appears, headed" In U.

bought uP, and his tune changes. Alier
compllmeniing The Nuliiers, he says tina,
there are only two Democrats yet out for
Congress, Mr. Cralge for Calhoun, and Mr..
Mckay, he belieres, for Van Buren,. He
says there are five other Districts, that will,
probably, have Democratic Candidates, ey.

IS expressed 10 have Calhoun Candidates
enough, but no more notice ia taken Of an
Intention TO get GU, Van Buren, Candidates,
than 1t there was not a Van Buren, man 10
the State. And the article winds US thus
" 10 capltulale-out Of the nine Districts
( N our State, We shall secure seven Candl.
dates and five out Of the seven, so far as
we are al present advised, are the friends
Of Mr.. Calhoun"
I And pray, how are we to be benefited
by such victory Five are for Calhoun
Yet this bought.up Standard speaks as il
II was cause Of gratitude that the Demo
Gratis proper were set aside.
The mex, annunciaiion that we have, is
that Thomas Loriag has transferred Sand

gIft," but by deed of bargain and sale, for
the consideration Of s., 500, to little rene
gade deserIer, who is SO late from the ranks
Of Whlggery, that the very Turpentine Of
their Log Cabins, which be got on him when
creeping like an old Coon through the logs
Of which they we're built, is still sticking 10
his fur. And this is the great champion OF
Democracy, whom we are called upon to
