A CARD PROM E. c. DELAVAN.

To The Editor Of them Y Tribune.
SIR: In your paper of yesterday you have an article
headed "Facts TO be remembered" wherein you
state: awe believe there is dispute as to the fact
"that Edward c. Delavan gave his influence and
"vote to the American ticket" &c. And the con-
cuson drawn from these premises was the election Of
Mr.. Comstock into the Court of Appeals when, had
Mr.. Mullin the Republican candidate, been elected,
the constitutionality Of the ProhibitOry Law would
have been sustained and thus the prevention of the
opening of Ten Thousand Grogshops, &c.
l was 40 circumstanced that could not vote at the
last General Election, did take any part in the
contest way other, except so far as TO use all
the influence could with all the parties to nominate
such men to office as total abstalners an their respec.
tire parties, could consistently vote for. could
not in conscience vote for drinking men, or for men
opposed to Prohibition =. -. | was knowing to the
fact that Bradford r. Wood, and was assured that
Mr. Mullin Doth candidates for the Court of Appeals
of the Republican party were true to these principles
and had not change of residence lost Inc my vote,
they would have had it, not because they belonged to
the Republican party but because they were true to
the great principle contend for ~. = NOR. v.v

Remarks-Mr. Delavan, it appears, did not vote
last Fall, and inference that he did was errone
Gus. Yet no one familiar with the last canvass in
our State can doubt that his influence was very
powerfully felt in favor Of the American" as
against the Republican candidates. He says
no,o that he should have voted if at all, for Wood
and Mulin as Appeal Judges, but he did not so de.
clare himself when that declaration, if hearty and
unqualified, would have done great good. On the
contrary, his presence at Utica and absence from
the State Temperance Convention then being held,
at the time these gentlemen were recommended to
the support Of the Prohbitionists of our State,
were generally, and we think justly, interpreted as
counseng those Temperance men whom he could
influence to hold off from this ticket. And the
vote cast in Ulster, Rensselaer,, Saratoga, Wash
ington, Essex, Clinton, Franklin and other Eastern
Counties, shows that his advice was extensively
followed.
We are not impugning the motives of Mr.. Del
avan-we are ayerse to raking open the ashes of
the past unless to find therein some live embers
which may serve to light our pathway through the
dim labyrinth Of the future. But we think there
lie moral in that last canvass and it's issues, and
we areanxous that Mr.. Delavan and the rest of us
should read it Alright Ed

MR.. BUCHANAN.
From The W0shinstor linton.

From The Washington Union.
Some discussion having taken place upon the posi-
ton of Mr. Buchanan on the Kansas-Nebraska bill,
we are permitted to copy the following extract from
letter addressed by MIR. Buchanan to Senator Sidel,
dated London on the 2sth of December last,
when there seemed to be difference as to
Mr. BIS thorough identity with the Democratic party
on this as on all other issues. II will be seen that
Mr. b. speaks on the Kansas Nebraska bill with his
usual fraDkness and decision We are confirmed IN
impression by this letter that no man. no SGT oil
men, and newspaper, are at all warranted TO speak
auhortstivey for Mr. Buchanan upon this or upon any
other question. His words speak for themselves.
The letter of Mr.. Buchanan was not 1t will be seen,
intended for publication, but the gentleman to whom
was addressed has thought it necessary after the edi-
torial article in The Union of Wednesday last to lay
it before the country.
"The question has been settled by Congress, and
this settlement should be inAexbly maintained The
Missouri Compromise is gone, ard gone forever. But
no assault should be made upon those Democrats who
maintained it, provided they now willing in good
faith to maintain the settlement as it exists Such an
understanding is wise and just in itself.
cit is well known how / labcred In company with
Southern en- to have this line extended to the Pacihc
ocean But it has departed. The time for 1t has
passed away, and verify believe that the 6est-nay,
the only-mode now left of putting down the fanatl'
cal and reckless spirit Of Abolition at the North Is to
adhere TO the existing settlement without the slightest
Thought or appearance of waveIing, and without re-
gardng any storm which may be raised against IT,

Mr.. Layard found an opportunity for expressing
his opinions about the peace at his recent naugu-
ration as Lord Rector of Marischal College aud
University, Aberdeen. He said he had no conf
dence that the present peace would be a satisfac-
tory one ard that there is scarcely q man to be
found from Landsend to John O. Groat's, but
would like another year Of war, since the political
aspect of the question does not warrant anybody
in expecting lasting peace, while England is just
now fully prepared for any emergency OF 8 new
and decisive campaign. He declared that the
peace would be premature, and was much cheered
for his utterance of such opinions.

The departure of the Prussian Prime Minister,
Baron Manteuffel, from Berlin has afforded an OPP
portuHity for Mr. Seiart, late Chief of the Secret
Police, to publish pamphlet charging the Prime
Minister with completely in the affair of the theft
of dispatches from General Gerlach and Geheime-
Rath Marcus Niebuhr, Private Secretary to the
King. Mr. Seifiart intimates at the samel time that
be French ambassador at Berlin was always cog
infant of the reports of the Prussian Military Com
missioner at st. Petersburg which were sent to the
King and kept as secrets of state. 1t was Baron
Manteuffel who, according to the pamphlet be-
rayed them to France, and Mr.. Hinckeldey knew
ofal these proceedings. Mr.. Seifart, who de-
nOunces the Prime Minister in such direct terms,
was formerly Prussan Consul in Mexico, q MEN,
Der of the Prussisn Diet and has been lately ap-
pointed Prussian Consul General in Spain. This
appointment was to be kind of honorable exile for
him. as he was lately under cloud, the suspicion

FROM VEsEzuELA.-By the arrival of the bark
Venus from Curacao, we have received advices from
Venezuela to March 20. In consequence of serious
destruction of property belonging to the Dutch resi-
dents at Vile de Coro by the inhabitants of Coro
some six months back, the Dutch Naval West India
fleet are at present at Laguayra to gain restitution for
the above damages. On the sailing of the Venus they
had not come TO terms In the event of Venezuela
not satisfying the above claims, the Dutch Commo'
dore has positive orders to blockade the Venezuelan
ports and declare war; in which case there will be no
more shipments of produce from the Main. The issue
is doubtful.
