MR.. VAN BUREN'S OPINION OF THE

The letter published by the Richmond Enquirer,
places this opinion on record, without equivoaion
and it is well to keep il in mind. ...

"MARTIN VAN BUREN,
In good time Mr.. Van Buren, came out in biz
Indiana letter, and explained his views of the true
principles of the tariff. The character of that lela
was clearly set forth in an able article IN Tho
s'Democratic Review" in the spring oflSH. Then
is no doubt that he still clings to that position, and
also that Mr.. Wrig hit adheres to the opinions he a.
pressed when the tariff Of lS42 passed, as welM
to those which he supported in his able subssqu'H
speech.
The question is assuming new Importance every
day, and everything satisfies us that Mr.. WaIka
was right in declaring that 'the tariff must be ~
duced to the revenue standard"
