A letter from Mr Sheldon P Gilbert to Dr Wm
Evans, proprietor of the celebrated Camomile Pills;
DearS:r Had the immortal Uowper known tbe
medical qualities of the Camomile plant, he, as well
as thousands since, (besides myself) would have experienced its wonderful effects on the nervous
vstin. The public utility oi uowper was biigui-
ed in the bud, through tbe natural effect of his ner
vous debility upon the mental powers, which made
it neccssarv for him to seek reliei oeneain tbe ru
rul shade, but the calm retreat gave his physical
nature no repose. If some one then bad known
the secret of concentrating tbe medical virtues of
Camomile, the discoverer would have been immortalized with poetic zeal as the benefactor ofsufering men.

Sir, I have been controlled in '.he remarks
which! have deemed it my duly to submit in
relation to the President's palace by the same motives and principles which governed the
Jackson party, of which I was an ardent sup
porter, during the administration of John 11
Adams, xou will doubtless recollect that
the Jackson party at that day, both in and
out of Congress, went into the investigation of the palace concerns most thoroughly. On
the 3d of March, 1820, the tollowingjoint res
olution was adopted by the two Houses:
"Resolved, tec. 1 hat the lOtnmissioner oi
the Public Buildings be, and he is hereby, au
thorized and directed to take an inventory
of the furniture of the President's House, at
such time as may be convenient to the Prcsi
dent, and to deliver a copy thereof to the
President elect, and one copy to each House
of Congress."
.. .
.In pursuance of this resolution, a schedule-
of all the furniture in the President's House,
including the articles in the bed-chambers &
kitchen, was reported to Congress on the oin
of December, 1825. Subsequently, (3lh
February, 1820.) the House of Representa lives, through its committee, requested the
then President to communicate in what manner the last appropriation for furniture for the President's House had been expended. After the information had been obtained, the com
mittee made a report to Ihe House, viz: 17th March. 182G,to which they not only annexed
a memorandum of all the table linens, sheets,
nillow cases, chamber towel. &c in the pal
ace. but also a list of all the articles purchas

1825, till January, lawu.- rmoracea in tne

And now, sir, having seen that this demo
cratic President's house is furnished in a style
of magnficence and regal splendor that might
well satisfy a monarch, let us examine Ihe
manners, habits, conduct, and political prin
ciples of the person who dwells in it, and see
fthey correspond to the grandeur of the
mansion. 1 do this to show the t'eople some facts, from which they, may judge whether this is that plain, simple, hard handed democrat whom they have been taught to believe is at the head of the democratic party, liecause the quostioD now is, whether Martin
Van Buren, of Kinderhook, is the real, bona
fide, straight going democrat which his friends
avouch him to be. He may call himself a
democrat such, no doubt, he professes to be
but then there is a gieat difference between names and things. You have, heard
the story of the farmers son, who said to his
father, "Father, if 1 should call that calf's tail a leg, how many legs would the ha vet"
"Why five to be sure," said his father. Why
no it would nt, says the boy, "because my calling it a leg, would'nt make if so." I. a ligh
ter. J
bo, in this case, I strongly suspect that when
we look a little closely, we shall find that the
democratic leg is nothing but a tail after all.
Loud laughter.
Un reading the 'Dmry in America,1 by Captain Marryat, of the Royal Navy of England, I was much struck with the sound discrimination exhibited by this celebrated traveler, in a paragraph at page 1G5 of the first volume of his work. I will read the par sige: "Mr. Van Buren is a very gentlemanlike, intelligent man; very proud of talking-over his visit to England, and the English with whom he was acquainted. It is remarkable
that altho'igh at the head of the democratic party, Mr. Van Buren has taken a step striking at the very roots of theii boasted equality, and one on which General Jackson did net venture; namely, he has prevented the moboctacy (democracy) from intruding themselves at his levees. The police are now sta
tioned at the door, to prevent tbe intrusion of any improper person. A few years ago, a fellow would drive his cart or hackney coach
up to the door, walk into the saloon in all his dirt.and force his way to the President that
he might shake him by the one hand, whilst
he nourished his whip in the other. The re volting scene which look place when refresh
ments were handed round, the lajury done to
the furniture, and the disgust to the ladies, may be well imagined. Mr. Van Buren deseives great credit for this step for it was a
bold one: but 1 must not praise him too much,
or he may lose his next election."
1 could wi ll anticipate that an Erghsh sea
captain, who had been reared among the haughty aristocratic of ih it proud country &
who had been accustomed to exercise a'mosl
despotic power aboard his man of war, woul l
show his strong British feelings by a hearty approval ofthc code of palace laws tidoptttd by Mr. Van Buren, and by which he pievents "the mobocracy (democracy) from intruding themselves at his levees." 1 could alsoaoticipate that this captain' in the Royal Navy would manifest his abhorrence of the common people, by ecn mending in suitable terms, the palace regulation, by which "the Police are now stationed at the door to prevent the intrusion of any improper person." But what arrested most particularly my attention in
readme the passnire iust quoted was the re
markable tact displayed by the author in opening to his readers, in tWoor three lines, the inmost lecesses of Mr. Van Buren's charac-
terand infirmity. "He is very proud of talking over his visit to England, and Ihe English with whom he was acquainted!"' .These are
pregnant words; and furnish a key to explain many - occurrences ' which have transpired since his elevation to the Presidency, and
which have caused, in the minds of the old, and true hearted Republicans of this country, amazement, if not grief and mortification.There was a time in this land when king,&
their treasures. That is the recommendation the despots of Europe have these sub-treasuries, and therefore we ought to adopt the scheme for this country. The Secretary of
War, too, has sent to Europe two young cavalry officers for what! Will some of the democracy tell us what purpose Ihe Secretary intends to answei by sending abroad two officers of his Department to ex imine ir.to the history and Uie of the French cavalry service! The Postmaster General also has his ng?.- li
abroad. The last letter I saw from Mr. A-
gent Piitt is dated at Berlin. Probably !c is learning in the despotism of Pruiw iiorr n system of espionage might be introduced here; how letters might te opened and seals broken to advantage; and correspondence be intercepted. 1 for my part, do not Tike these inroads upon the principles of our Revolutionary fathers. Why should we go abroad for such things! Look at our own cojulry. Is it not as large as all Europe together! Has it not a soil sufficiently substantial and fertile to sustain a population equal to In that of all Europe? Has it not within itself all the elements of a great nation without going abroad
to look for them I I believe that if England and all Euiope were sunk into the Atlantic, this nation, instead of being impeded in her onward march, would have it high destii.y accelerated. Have we not all the genes cf prosperity that are to be found in Europe! Have we not gold and silver, and iron nnc! copper, and zinc and lead, and all the useful metalicares its abundance! Have wc not within our own borders cotton and wool, and hemp and flax, with "Black sable furs for winter's frosU, Aad silks for snmrasr's fires." . Do we not possess all the roots, grains, mi vegetables of Europe? Do not our glorious forests furnish sublime speciments of thu live oak, the white oak, the hickory, maple, walnut, beech,curamber, not forgetting ti e buck
eye, and even the slippery elm? Why, then,
go abroad? W Uy ape the manners ol t-urope?
Why should each Department senu messengers there to learn wisdom! To see bow despotisms are managed and conducted, and how the people are oppressed? If the object were to learn any thing which would tend to liber alize our institutions, our messengers should have been sent toarouiitry where they venrle the ha'cus corp is. the right of irial ly jury, freedom of pevcii,and a free press. Y. iis the object of a monarchy! It U to c;..e inviolate the person of the monarch: to giv him uncontrolled 'sway; and all the inst'tulions and laws of n monarchy are made
carry into effect that object. Hcnre, ia a monarchy you have the maxim th:t the Kitg can do no wrong that it is treason even to imagine his death. And every thing is made to bend to his will. Our democratic President ought not to go to lands where such privileges exist. They are not in accordance with our institutions; they are manifestly subversive of the principles of t.ll our institutions. Kings are nole?s
rogues, tyrants, and despots now than they were in 1770. Why, hen, should Mr. Van
Buren be making friends in the way of Mammon with these tyrants,despols, and rogues! Let us confine ourselves within our own charming country our people will have enough to do at home without going abroad. Let us preserve our own institution as handed down to us by our'evcr to be remembered forefathers. But 1 am sorry to say that Mr. Van Buren is in no wise governed by those good o! Jfashions of our Revolutionary sires. No. He has determined that bis sons shall have their manners refined; that they shall learn how to dress, dance, promennde, bow, chat, and look like the noblemen of England. I say lools, because a full-blown aristocrat cancel recog
nize his next neighbor without tbe aid of an opera or quizzing glass. Several of Mr. Van Buren's sons were, therefore, seot across the ilue waters to see for themselves how to ape the British aristocracy. :i Now let me turn your attention to some accounts we have had in the London Journals of the visit, paid b his eldest son, John, two yean ago, .o Queo Victoria At a grand state dinner given by the Queen, at Buckingham nttace. rr ' e
