/ MIR. CALHOIrN..

The letter Of Mr.. Calhoun denouncina the
Van Buren, May convention, has not We, made its
appearance The Richmond Enquirer publish
es letter from correspondent in the House
Of Representatives al Washington, dated on the
9Th, which says:
II will only say, that have seen letter To-
day from Mr.. Calhoun, IN which he states that
be will not permithis name 10 60 into the Balti-
more Convention, and thar his reasons for the
same are givehsin full to Senator, and will be
made known in few days.
In the meantime, TO show how things are work
ing. we annex the following extract Of letter,
published in the N. Y. Express, "ffom highly
respectable gentleman, dated Charleston, 81 Ct,
Jan 10th.
"John C. Cslhcun's two nephews joined our
Clay Club, also Langdon cheves,Judge BntIer,
aud MANY other waIm friends OF John CT CAT
houn; and if this State finds that Henry Clay
will need her vote 10 elect him, he will GET il;
ifnet needed, she will throw il away"
We will doubtless receive Mr. Calhoun7s letter
in lime for our next paper-in the meantime We
must, with the Richmond Enquirer, swat with
as much equanimiiy as possiblen for il. We
hope, there is safe insane asylum 10 Virginia (;
for il .heslener Ex-senator Rives has had such
an effect on the nerves Of the venerable editor

him Of that Of Mr.. Calhoun, we are yet 10 see.

r0INT TILE COST.

The Geneva Courier thus cogently andsforc-
bly, reasons upon the cost il would be to the ma
lion to revslect Mr.. Van Buren,. II says: "a
wise man. about 10 build house sits down and
calculates how much it is 10 cost. wise peo-
pie about to elect a president should sit down
and calculate now much he is 10 cost. Let us
apply this test TO Van Buren,.
Madison's eight years expenditure, when the
nation was engaged ia war, and subject TO hea-
Wy extra expense, was Sl44. 1884, 939
Monroe's eight years expenditure lQ4 .463, 400
Adams four years so sol, 9I4
Van Buren's four years lac, 5S5,32l
Van Buren, for four years cost the nation near.
ly as much as Madison's eight years, including
three years Of war. Il cost about $4,000, 900
more than Monroe's eight years, and $50 600.
600 more than Adams four years. For this inn
mense expenditure Of money in lime OF peace
the people received bankrupt treasury and q
debt Of $4,000, 900. TrulyeifMr. Van Buren,
cost so much when tried before, is it likely he
will cost much less if tried again.

LARGE IMPORTATION.

Within The hast twenty-five years there has
been imported into this country from France,
two hundred millions OF dollars worth ofsilks-
being nearly as much as the united Indebtedness
Of all the States Of The Union. What has this
immense outlay in 6nery pro6ted our country
Has il added one 10, 10 her prosPeri,yor her
character-hasi il enlightened the public mind,
or induced those habits whichsare the preserva-
tiyes Of Republican communities Verify not |!
A spirit Of luxury and extravsgsnce has been
created alike destructive to morals, a. il it has
been draining 10 the finances Of our common
country.
Had this extravagant sum been spent ia the
eneOursgementso f home manufactures, OF Amer
lean Industry, what glorious benefits would have
been the result-whsi labor it would have given
to many Vanishing families in oui CITIES, who
have been rendered destitute for want Of en-
ploymeni!-B manufacturing these goods with.
in ourselves, we would have been, as ration,
5000 900, 900 richer, as that sum would have
been spent among ourselves-and let il be borne
in mind that the greater part Of this money was
paid the French nation in bullion.
Our own climate has, again and again, proven
itself capable Of producing silk, and our manu-
faciurers only wanted sufficient protection to
enable them 10 compete successfully with TO-
reign manufacturers, where labor can be had at
such cheap rates.

Mr.. Calhoun Mr.. Van Buren,, Mr.. Buchanan,

The Hon. JAMEs CooPKR (member Of the late
cengrsssl offered The following among other
important resolutions. on the ION. 10 The lower
House OF The Pennsylvania Legislature
Received. Thai W recommend 10 our Senaiors
and Representatives. IN Congress to use their ex-
ertions 70 q ocure the passage Of law author
izisg The issue Of $500 900 900 Of stock, to be
dntriniied amongst the several States, in pro-
portion to the Federal population. aud TO Be
Paysole oy the United States out Of the proceeds
o. the sales OF the public lands which lands shall
% pledged for the redemption Of the siOck SO
issued.
Pennsylvania Is the largest Indebted State in
the Union--though considering her inexhausli-
bic resources Is moro able 70 pay her liabilities
than some Of the less Indebted States-and this
measure wiIldouhlless NEE, with gracious re.
ception 81 her hands. unless indeed il be suffer
ed 10 wear party hue. II is measure which,
for ils character and profsssed ends, should be
Considered far beyond The asperii,es Of party.
This measure is not, as has been falsely
asserted, direct assumption OF the State Debts
BY the General Government, although the power
Of doing even this, whenever expedient, has
been proven, BY the citing Of high precedents,
in the report Of the Committee Of the late Con-
gress, 90 this subject. This resolution in effect
is nothing more than the recommendation OF a
proposition to the National Government 10 issue
bonds 10 the amount Of $500, O00. 900 10 Stock,
bearing stipulated interest, and 10 be distribu-
ted among the several States, in the RATIO Of
their fsderals representation, piedging for the
payment Of interest. and their final liquidation,
the revenue Al isihg from The sales Of the public
domain.
Whilst in Congress, Mr.. Cooper was warm
and strenuous advocate Of this measure, and the
able and statesmsnlike view which he took Of
il, caused him Dany admirers, and won many
to its support. Mr.. G. is gentleman Of talents
Of no ordinary character, and has filled with
credit 10 himself and honor to his State, the va
rious public distinctions conferred on him. The
measure could not have fallen into the hands Of
an ADLER gentleman, and il il does not succeed
i. will not be owing 10 want OF energy and
perseverance,.

Mr.. Corwin was called loudly for as the

declined.
The pane Of David Spangler was then sub
nittsd 10 the convention As 4 candidate FOR Co
vernon, which was received BY accIamalion.
The Wings calculate 70 certainty on the
election Of their Governor By ten Of fifteen
thousand majority, and thus give the death-knell
to Locofocoism 10 Ohio, before The great battle
