National Policy and the Loco-Foco as
pirants to the Presidency.
We have already stated that the Loco-Focos OF
Indiana, at their last State Convention, addressed
a Circular to each Of the known aspirants for the
Presidential nomination Of their party Capt.
TyIey alone e1ceptedj-rcqulrlng direct ex-
r,resson of his sentiments on the chief Political
topics which now divide the Country To these
questions Mr.. CALHOUN replies frankly and oncfy
that ne is opposed to National Bank, to Pro-
tective Duties, and to any Distribution OF the
Proceeds Of the Public Lands; Col R. NJ. JOHN
son ditto, with the exception of the Tariff; Cen
CAss likewise; Mr.. BUCHANAN also. Their views
are the opposite of our own, but they are put iorth
courteousIy and fairly, as their own CONVICTIONS
on points wherson others have the same liberty to
think differently as they TO think as they Co. AS
,hc Tariff is the most important topic OF the ues'
and their views are well worth considering and
likely to become the theme OF future discussion,
VIC piye their substance IN their own language

This is spoken a. becomes Statesman. 1t IN

advocate Of Protection insists on.
Gen. CAss In like manner says
"The subject of Protective Tariff has been long and
ably discussed that would be useless for me TO do more

the Of the Government ought be brought down 10
the lowest point compatible with the performance OF It's Con-

Very GOOD Incidental Projections adjusted
6p those ,oko belierc in Protection, will answer
every purpose 1t makes all tho odds IN the
world whether those who arc to make the dis
crimination, and determine what will be a fair
incidental Protection, believe in Protection or do
not. If not, we should be certain to differ very
seriously. The stability desired by Gen. Cass
we heartily concur in demanding The Tariff
is right now in every essential particular. Let
il alone.
Mr. BucH4NAN, after quoting and concurring
with the tnsuage of Gen. Jackson's Message of
1882 in favor of Incidental Protection and the
counteraction of Foreign exactions, proceeds:
81 willing with political friends from the
North, the South, the East and the West reducing the
expenditures ei the Government the lowest point.

This is well said, and must have weight.
We come now to the answer of Mr. MARTIN
VAN buren, of Kmdcrhook--wc beg pardon: OF
Lndenwold-which is conceived III different
spirit and written in n different temper from the
foregoing. The replies of Messrs. Calhoun, John.
son, Cass and Buchanan all together fill too and
half columns of the Evening Post; Mr.. Van
Buren's alone covers SIR columns equal TO eight
or nine of The Tribune And why this prolixity
in answering a few simple questions Because
Mr.. V. B. is not content with answering the
questions put TO HIM, as the others are, but seeks
by pcttitogeing andmystifying the topics involved
: and thus playing upon the prcjudlccs OF the more
ignorant of his party, to make capital for himself
a, the expense of his rivals, Accordingly his let
ger, though dated Feb. 18th, had not reached In.
dianapohs late in April, when, after vainly wait
ing three months, the Committee published the
other four letters, remarkng that had reached
them from Mr.. Van Buren,. Alter those letters
= had appeared VIC first heard that Mr. Van Buren's
had been written, and now 1t makes It's appear
ance. Indianapolis is some ten days by mai
from kinderhook Is ii not papable that the
date of Mr.. Van Buren's letter is a falsehood
The hrst two columns OF lms letter are devoted
to Justification of The history of the Country
and 10 the grosscst asperslons of the conduct and
motives OF those who differed from the writer III
regard TO the Recharter of the late United States
Bank The whole ground is pcttitogged over
not at all in answer TO the questions submitted
10 him--in the spiri, OF Marat, and with the dig.
mtv OF a Ward Caucus Orator. All the evils
which have been imposed ON the Country by the
ignorance and obstinacy of Gen. jackson, IN.
