From the y. V Express
The Evening Post publishing the Calhoun address thus
throws down the glove of defiance:
AT the close the address tells us that the friends of Mr.
Calhoun IN this city, declare that they do sup
port Mr. Van Buren, unless he is nominated by convention
OF delegates chosen by districts We like this rankncss,
though a little late So far this state is con
ccrIed, the question has been submitted of
delegates from the party the decision has against the
district system, aud the delegates the convention have
chosen. v lew York wi no took
part in eeciing the delegates this very convention
tell the democracy OF the that they will not be hound
by the decision but will rather separate from the party op
pose Its nominations and send the election the House Of
Representatives. We ready part meet these
threats toth DEFIANCE. They make them may do
their tcorsi They will send election that theatre OF in
guc, the House OF Representatives,, all far
the W c OF this State is concerned"
The journal OF Commerce. looks upon these
monts us "the beginning OF the end" at is plain
adds this j0urne which is inmcp to the Wings that
there will be open rupture between the Calhoun aud Van
Buren, men in this State aud in all probability will
pevade the Union" To the remark the Post THAT the
secession OF the Calhoun interest could prevent the cleo
ton OF Van Barren by the people, the Journal replies ave
not sure OF II: more especially between Van Buren,
and Calhoun the Wings, Notwithstanding the Tariff would
decidedly prefer the latter Such rny rate the feel
Ing OF every Wing with whom have conyersed the
subject II there any thing like cOaescence between
the Wings and Calhoun men, they would cay OF the
Southern States and several of the Northern which would
otherwise 90 for Van Buren," The Journal adds:
"Ihc present important for .thc Democratic
party They have USED up Whiggery, and about
10 use up themselves. \ new combination OF the political
elements Is beokencd by the signs of the times, and the
the bctterit will be for the county The
