they might bark there until all was blue, and never find the game they were in pursuit of. It was stated in the Crawfordsville Record, after I was appointed a delegate to attend the Van Buren state convention, at Indianapolis, that I not only refused to act as a delegate, but declared that Van Buren was the last man I would support for president, &c. There appears to be a mistake in some way, either in barking up or down the wrong tree. At the time that publication was made in the

Record, stating that I refused to act as a

delegate, I knew nothing of the appointment,

nor of the meeting-unlil after its appearance in the Record. And as to my stating that Van Buren was the last man I would sup port, I do not recollect making that statement; I recollect stating, at different times, that I did not like either of the candidates for president, and have stated that I did not know but I would be without a president at the next election.

I now lay back my cars and return home quietly, believing I have barked up the tree where the game is. Please give this a place in the Record. Absalom Ketcuam. December 21, 1835. The foregoing communication from judge Ketcham would indicate that our informant was reckoning without his host, when he said the judge had refused to act as a delegate to the Van Buren convention. We can assure the judge and our readers, that the story did not originate with us; but we had it from a respectable source, and understood it, at the time, as coming directly from himself, to our informant; but in that wc were mistaken. 'The honorable judge has plainly told us, in his communication, which tree the coon is not up, but unless our readers are better dogs on track than ourselves, we think it will be oipossible for them to determine where the game is; we should say, if our scenting powers do not deceive us, that it is up the on-
