Major VaY Campdcn's Reputation Of British
Free Trade and Texas Annexation!

Major NaY Campdcn's Reputation CT ljTitisIl
Free Trade and Texas Annexation!
There is no man now living in the State
Of New York who rendered more valuable
service, endured more privations and hard
ships, or shed more precious blood, in the
Revolutionary War, than the venerable Ma
jor MOSES VAN CAMPDEN, of Liv-
ingston CO. In Western New York, where
he has always lived, and where his services
and character are known, no man is more
beloved and venerated. There, every citi-
zen is familiar with tho history of his valor
and his suherings. There, every nursery
has thrilled with the relation of his gallant
escape from the Indians, while pinioned be-
tween two Warriors, seizIng the scalping
knife belonging to one of them to cut the
cords which bound him, and then, with the
Rifle Of one Of his capters, fighting his way
through them.
Major VAN CAMrDEN has always been a
Republican. He supported JEFFERSON,
MADISON, MONROE, and though not approx
ing all they did, went Tor JACKSON ana VAN
buren,. The Loco Focos, knowing the re-
spect and veneration in which he is held,
sought to press him into the service of Polk,
Texas, Free Trade, &c, &c. But they
presumed too much upon the old veteran.--
In attempting to place him in false position,
they have rekindled the patriotic fires of
l776 in the hero's bosom. The Wing spi-
rit of the Revolution burns as brightly as ev-
err. The frosts of 81 winters are upon his
head, but the heart warns as in its youth to
the country for which he Tough, and bled.--

from the political contests which divide my friends
and feow-czens, and for my being satisfied with
