styled democrats, and the supporters of Van Buren. Where was Mr. Van Buren in 1812? In New York, opposing the war and Mr. Madison's administration, and supporting

the federal candidate for president. Where was Mr. Van Buren in 1824? In the senate of New York, opposing the election of gen. Jackson, and supporting the election of Mr. Crawford, the caucus candidate. Is this the democracy of the party who claim to be the exclusive and only democrats of the country? Did Mr. Van Buren exhibit his democracy in his vote in the senate of New York against a proposition to give the election of president of the United States to the people, in 1824, according to their known wishes, as expressed by their representatives? Is this the democracy of his supporters in Indiana? From such democracy may the Sovereign of the universe speedily deliver our once free and happy country. The ex-governor, after a vain effort to ridicule the military talents of gen. Harrison, makes a labored defence of Mr. Van Buren's votes in the senate of the United States, against a bill to extend the National road thro' Indiana, & to make appropriations for its construction--and the bill to reduce the price of the public lands, and for making donations to actual settlers. He admits that his votes against these bills are prima facie evidence that he was opposed to their passage; but says perhaps he voted against their engrossment because he was not satisfied with the details of the bills, and wished to have them amended. How ridiculous and nonsensical is this excuse!! If Mr. Van Buren wished the bills amended, why did he not propose his amendments? Did he do so? But this new proselyte to Van Buren democracy, fearing that this explanation of his votes would not satisfy the people, advances to another position, which, he thinks, is conclusive as to his being now friendly to Indiana. "Did he not (says gov. Ray) pledge himself to carry out the measures so gloriously acted upon by president Jackson?"' What measures of president Jackson? Was it his veto of the bill appropriating $20,000 to clear out the obstructions in the navigation of the Wabash river? Will the people of Indiana consider their interests promoted by carrying out this measure of president Jackson, "so gloriously begun ?' What system of internal improvement, in Indiana, did general Jackson ever sanction? There is an old maxim, sanctioned by the common sense, observation, and experience of mankind, that "actions speak louder than words." By this maxim let gen. Harrison and Mr. Van Buren be tried, and I fear not the result. What is the fact as to Van Buren's popularity in the west? He has none of his own. Like the moon, he shines in borrowed light. Take from him the rays that are emitted from the sun of gen. Jackson's and col. Johnson's popularity in the west, and he would be lost in the darkness of his own obscurity. Well did the Baltimore convention know this fact. Conscious that he needed the popularity of both gen. Jackson and col. Johnson to secure him the vote of the west, this convention invited a certain straggling steam doctor to take a seat in the convention as the sole and only delegate from the state of Tennessee, by whose vote the nomination of col. Johnson was secured, knowing, at the same time, that he had no authority from any portion of the people of Tennessee to act for them in this convention. Is this Van Buren democracy? A few words to gov. Ray, in conclusion. Is it possible that you expect to be a leader in the Van Buren party in Indiana?--Once a Clay man, then an Adams man, then 'on the fence,' and now a Van Buren man--and now a political apostate. Be assured, sir, you cannot be a leader of this party; they may accept and use the treason, but they will despise the traitor. VERITAS.
