apparent accuracy of his facts Of the first class is his
letter of Wednesday last, in which he says:
"Mr Polk predicted his elevation to the presidency
before the accession Of Mr. Van Buren, Mr. Polk also pre-
dency Tor and the course OF appears
to encourage the opinion
We do not believe that Mr. Polk made either of the
two predictions Certain it is that amid all the
