Gzs Mr. Van Buren left New York for
England IN the Arctic, accompanied by his
son Martin, who is in i'll health. He is
the 6rst Ex- President Of the United
States who has visited Europe after his term
Of service. and be is the last four Of our
Presidents who visited Europe in diplomat
ic capacities previous to their elevation.
The elder Adams was in England, Mr.. JEFF
ferson in France, Mr.. Munroe in France,
John Quincy Adams in England and at
Client, and Mr.. Van Buren in England.
The four military Presidents were never a.
cross the Atlantic, and the illnstrious Wash
ington never out Of his own country. Gen.
Harrison was in Canada in pursuit of the
enemy; Gen. Jackson in the Spanish terri
tory for the same object. and Gen. Taylor
in Mexico also for the same. Gen. Harri-
son spent few years in South America
in diplomatic capacity. The other Prcsi-
dents, Madison, Tyler, Polk and Fillmore,
were never abroad;certainlyin no public en-
ployment. The service of Mr.. Van Buren
in England, it will be remembered, was
brief. He was appointed Minister Plenipo-
Tertiary in the recess Of the Senate after
the breaking up Of the Cabinet in the Spring
Of 1881. At the session of 1882, his
nomination after long and somewhat ami
mated discussion in secret conference, was
rejected by the casting vote of his great
Southern rival, Mr.. Calhoun, then Vice
President, and er-e6foio President Of the
Senate. The injunction ofsecrecy was soon
afterwards removed, and the debates pub
lshed at length; creating Of course, much
excitement throughout the country, and
leading to the nomination of Mr.. Van Bu-
rem as Vice President the following summer
by the jackson party. The ostensiblc
cause or ground for rejection assumed in
this celebrated debate, was the nature of
certain instructions prepared by Mr.. Van
Buren, while Secretary State, for the gov
ernmcnt of Mr. Louis McLane, then Minis
to England, TO hasten the opening Of the
West India and other colonial ports TO the
American trade. These Instructions were
constructed as derogatory to the conntry;
and under this influence, and the spirit of
personal and political hostility from Mr.. Cal
houn and his friends, the nomination was me-
gatiyed II was said at the time that the
vote was purposely brought to lie to
throw the responsibility offnal acton on Mr.
Calhoun.
