A Correspondent Of The Charleston Mercury, writ
ing from Sra,otd, Connecticut, August Sth says tina
without any doubt, Mr.. Calhoun viii get the vote o
Connecticut and majority of the New Englant
States: and that out OF the members elect of Con
gress all but one are Calhoun men-n0 mistake
The Richmond Enquirer, IN noticing these asser
TONS SAYS "they are directly in conflict with the in
formation We have received from Connecticut" anc
calls and the other Democratic papers "iol
light
Now in so far as the above statement, refers TO Con
nectcut, assert, without recitation, il is entire
without foundation. The Democracy OF this State
have yet made formal declaration of their choice
for the Presidency but II opinion may be formed
from all the usual indications of the popular WILL that
declaration, when il is made will be almost
mously in favor of Mr.. Van Buren,. Every Demo
cratic paper in the State Except The Regs'e that ad
yocated the CLAIMS of MIR. Van Buren, l54O, has de
claed him TO be their first choice Tor next President
and only one (the Brooklyn PennanD established since
that time prefers Mr.. Calhoun. The Brooklyn Pen.
nant established since then, for Mr.. Calhoun; but
that paper has been discontinued.
So far our personal acquaintance extends, land,
it is by no means limed,) we know Of very few Cal
houn men-but could mention hundreds who are
the ardent, Jealous supporters Of MI Van Buren,, many
of them the most prominent and influential Democrats
in State Of the members of Congress elect Of TIM.
State, only of them is for Mr.. Calhoun-but he
must be- aware that IN this respect ne does not repre-
sent the will Of his constituents, have doubt his
vote would be gwen for Mr. Van Buren, if the cleo
ton of President should devolve upon The House o.,
Representatives.
There are, however, some "good men and true, in
this State, of which the aforesaid member of Congress
is one, who are Calhoun men-but believe the
greater part Of them men who opposed Mr.. Van
Buren, in 1910, and would support almost any one,
rather than humble themselves to vote for him whom
they then used every means To defeat THIS is true
of the "Tyer Democrats, they call themselves of
whom the above letter speaks.
We state these facts, only to show what is the true
position of Connecticut. We have nothing TO say
against Mr.. Calhoun. We admire his talents and cha
racter, and his firm adherence to Democratic prn-
cples, and we should like TO see him President But
he must bide his time There reasons why Mr.
Van Buren, should be The next President which should
not, which must not be overlooked.
So, friend Richie give yourself no anxiety about
Connecticut. Her first choice is Mr.. Van Buren-but
IT Mr.. Calhoun, or any other good Democrat should
fairly receive the nomination, her Democracy will
give him their cordial support
