The National Era has the following clio

usual now IN on. market
The National Era has the following elo-
quent tribute 10 the merit of our candidates:
Mr.. Van Buren, is unimpeachabIe in pri.
waite life; and in public, wien committed, he
keeps faith with friends and foes. He is a
statesman of great experience, eminent abil-
lily, and clothed with HE dignity Of an ex
President, His experience and ability, and
the whole power of his position, he has
pledged to the establishment of the Just and
Christian pliocy of no extension of Sla>
very. He, alone, of all the principle candi-
dates for the Presidency, represents the
cause of Freedom, Free Labor and Free
Soil. We shall trust him. Principle,
Honor, Interest combine to make him trust
Worthy. Na true Democrat, no true
Wing, can object to him I'LL they present
candidates as well qualified, as openly and
hOnorably committed to freedom, as he is.
No true American, who believes in his heart
that the wcll-beng and honor Of the Union
depend upon the restriction OF Slavery and
overthrow of the Slave Power, ought to re-
fuse him his support; and Christian men
must regard with special favor the claims
of him, as a candidate for the Presidency
OF tins Christian nation, who stands pledg-
ed against the establishment, IN rev, vast
empire, of relation repugnant to The spirit
and great law Of their Divine Faith.
OF MIR. Adams we have itlIe room now
to speak. He is man of purity and prl
waite character, political integrity, dlslin-
guiShcd ability, and eminent devotion 10

arisen in the last forty years, he possesses great
self reliance, though uniformly practising
kind and forbearing disposition towards the sen
timenls of others. The son of a distinguished
Revolutionary officer, the first lesson he learned
was devotion to his country, and TO it and the
Federal Union he has unwaverngly adhered.
His services in the field, and in the cabinet, and
especially at the court of France, afford con-
elusive evidence of his courage and patriotism,
not less than his sagacity General Cass' public
life has been spent, and his character formed in
intimate association with most of the eminent
men who have adorned our history, and their
example has obviously exercised powerful in
fuence on his public and private life. need
not, however, dwell upon the character and
qualifications of 4 statesman already SO well
known; and when it can be said of public
man, after more than forty years of arduous
ser, ice, that he is estimable in all his private
relations, accomplished as statesman, 6rm and
honest in his purposes, and devoted TO his coun-
try's honor and happiness, do not see that
more could be added to entitle him TO the sup
