The Calhoun men begin to discover that all
the clannor which the Van Buren, meo at one
time made about The support Of state rights,
the adoption of the Virginia Resolution, south
efn principles, the tariff DC, &c, was but
shallow pre,ense. "roE Pretersd nlhiL" and
was assumed for the purpose Of making the
Calhoun party, subsidiary 70 the Van Buren,.
ID truth, the Calhoun party have not muchfto
complain of in that respects as they united
themselves with the Van Buren, men that they
might convert them into Instruments to effect
their purposes. We think i is a little un-
reasonable IN the Calhoun men to claim that
the Democratic Loco Foco Farty should hence
forth and forever be bound and united with
them in al their views, because when they
went 10 their aid and support, they the Van
Burenitcs were miserably defeated and bro

be determined BY these two divisions of the
Great DemOcracss we shall be perfectly satis-
fed with the choice they may make; they cant
make the Whigssmn with ttlfe weight Of the
tariff question upon them il they are true to-
themselves, and wc can beat them easily, with
all the positions they may assume.
We have lately seen our noble Chief; aud
his cenn'enance is so bright and so inspinting,
his tones so melodious and encouraging, that |
not Wing, we have seen. who has looked
upon his beaming face and listened 10 his |
cheering voice. but feels kind of assurance Of
success, which banlshes doubt.
For the purpose of showing the variety Of
phases. which the same party nolninally may
exhibit in different latitndes, We quote from
the NASHVILLE Banner The following array
of the opinions ofthe different organs Of the |
party.
