A general attendance is requested. If there be any persons who are desirous to dis cuss the merits and claims of Maitin Van liuren such are particularly invited to attend. Mr. Van Duren and the Extra Globe. Mr. Van liuren finding that Mr. Puin sell's account of the Standing Army project did not satisfy the public, has ta ken the field himself in a letter to some gentlemen cf Virginia, in which he displays all that quibbling, prevarication and special pleading, to which he has had frequent occasion to resort in defending' a Kid cause, v.her. a county court lawyer in the State of New Yoik. The question propounded by these gentlemen was. ' Are you in favor of Mr. Poinsett's project for organizing the militia?" In answering this question. Yankee-like ho begins by giving us a long rigmarole history of the different propositions for training the militu from the days of Gen. Washington down to the present day, and concludes by telling us that, although Mr. Poinsett's plan is preferable to ihe plans submitted by his predecessors, he doubts its constitutionality. Why did he recommend it then? lie says that he did not, and contends that the Whigs, to prove this charge upon him, give a garbled extract from his Message. "How could I," says the President, "recommend a plan which was not matured for three months after my Message was delivered to Congress'" Thus evidently attempting to induce the impression that no dislintl plan for organizing the militia was submitted cither to himself or to Congress at its last session by Mr. Poinsett, previous to the plan of unimportant de tails presented through the Chairman of the Military Committee on the 20th of March last. Now every one acquainted with the facts knows that this is not so, and Mi. Van Duren, in adopting this mode of defence, resorts to a species of quibbling, which, if it does not amount to downright falsifying, conies so near it, that a plain, straight forward man cannot comprehend the difference. Wo would feign treat the President with all the respect due to nis station, but if he himself docs hot show that respect to his station and to himself, which he ought, lie cannot claim it from others. If, in extricating himself from au awkward predicament, ho resorts to a dirty prevarication, he cannot expect his countrymen to pronounce that gentlemanly in him, which would be considered contemptible in others. What arc the facts? The President's Message is dated December 2d, 1839, and Mr. Poinsett, as Secretary of War made a Report directed to tho Pre sident as is customary, dated November 10th, 130. The President had this Report in his hands from the 30th of Novem ber, to the Ulth of December, when it was transmitted to Congress with his Message. Tho Message and Report should have been transmitted to Congress at the first of the session, but the liouse was not organized, in consi&r..'ee of the New Jersey case, until the 21th of De cember. In tlna report mad to ihs Frs

sident on the 30th November, 180, and j are brought to bear on the coming elecwhich lie had in his possession upwards tion, but the people must not know "whence

of three weeks, Mr. Poinsettrccommended the organizing of 2-70,000 militia, dividing the U. States into eight military districts, and in fact, set forth the whole of this measure so odious to the people of the U. States, excepting some unimportant details to-wit: the manner of enrolment, the number of days of service, and the rate of compensation a plan of which he tells the President, I am ready to submit to you. Now this plan for organizing the militia of the U. States pro posed by Mr- Poinsett to the President in his report of November .'iOth, 18-50, which ihe President in his Message tells ' Congress "he cannot too strongly recommend to them," and which is objectionable to the people, because it gives to the President of the LJ. States, instead of the Governor and Legislature of the different States, tha sole control of '330,000 armed militia in time of peace, Mr. Van Duren would have us believe, he could not know any thing about, because the Secretary had not submitted to him his plan cf those unimportant details mentioned above and which he calls the matured plan. Why, absurdity is stamped on the very face of this excuse of his. This plan of details was not submitted until the 30th of March last, the papers for a month before that were teeming with articles against the 200,0-0 standing army project Mr. Rives' famous letter against it was written in the middle of February, the people cared nothing about these details, they could not alter the original plan one jot or tittle. It is to the Monster itself we object, and it was a matter of no importance to us, what length of tail, what color of skin Mr. Poinsett would give it, or how many days in the year he wouhl turn it loose among the people. Mr. Van Ruren talks a great dial about the intelligence of the people, if he think he can gull them by such quibbling, ha is mistaken. Again, Mr. Van Duren says thtonc cf the beauties of this plan, and which makes the difference between our government and the governments of Europe, is, that it proposes to put arms in the hands of the people, while the policy of European governments takes them from them. What a specious a.gument! The Despots of Europe have their standing armies to sustain them in power, and lake good care to keep them well equipped and armed, while the mass of the people are forbid the use of arm-. Mr. Van Duren proposes to raise for himself a standing army of 200,000 men, and wishes them well equipped and armed, but makes no provision for arming the balance of ihe people. Amos Kendall in his zeal to serve his master goes farther and would have us believe that Mr. Van Duren in his Message used the word adject, and not the word plan and only recommended the subject to Congress. Mr. Kendall, when he wrote this, knew that he was writing a barclaecu anu infamous 1:3, ami any c:ic can satisfy himself of it by referring to tho Message. lie gives us also General Harrison's views in 1SI0 upon organizing the militia, which he is pleafed to term extravagant and absurd. Had he been living in the western country then, surrounded on ? sides with hostile tribes of Indians and threatened with a war with England, lie would not have thought it very foolish in (Jen. Harrison to express a good deal of solicitude to have the militia properly drilled and organized. For an able, full and satisfactory review of this letter of Mr. Van Duren, we refer tho reader to the article taken from the National Intelligencer at Washington City. IQ Federal Conspiracy. Second edition of the Hartford Convention. The office-holding party held a meeting on Tuesday night last, and, as might be expected held it with closed doors. Some of the well meaning understrap pers of the party had invited some Whigs to alteud, but the leaders ordered them away, and would not proceed to business until every nook, corner and hole was examined and all the Whigs removed from the room. Why this fecrecy? Why this fear of having their acts known? The whigshave their meetings public, and invite their opponents to attend them. Why do not the office-holders pursue the sa-ne course? The answer is easy. Their deeds aro evil and become the dark they are conspiring against the liberties of the people and it is necessary that their plans should be laid, arranged, and concocted behind tho curtain, out of the sight of the people tho whole pa!ronae and money of the government

it cometh." They know full well, could the veil be rent asunder and the people behold the abominations at the altar, they would rise indignant against their unhal

lowed proceedings. Put, thank God, a majority of the people have seen through their designs and ihe country will be saved. They may plot and counier-plot. conspire and caucus, but it will be in vain, if the people remain true to themselves. We would rgain war!', the friends of the country not to be over confident, not to slumber on their posts but to be up and doing. Your opponents will move Heaven and Earth to carry the State this fall they will not, however, nisei you in open and fair light, but will come upon you as the Prophet did Harrison at Tippecanoe, in the shades of night they expect to effect their object by stratagem and working in the dark. Let then every friend of his country be up and doing from now to the election, and if he sleeps, let him sleep uponhb arm". Pursue this course.and our word for it, you will give them such a defeat then as they never suffered before you will cause them to share tho same fate that their brothers of the Hartford Convention did some- twenty-five years ago. Squire Stout in giving the result of the late elections in different states in his last paper says that Missouri has gone for the Administration by an increased majority. How stands it there. List year the Vanites had a majority of 2 7 in the Legislature, this year, it stands IS Whigs 52 Locos. Illinois lie tell us, has also gone by an increased voir. De'ow we give a.i article from ihe A lion Telegraph which shows it is very doubtful which party has a majority of the popular vote. Alabama, he tells U3 is in a fair way of going for Van this time, that before il went against him. The Squire when he again examines tin; returns of 1ST', shoald put on his spectacles. .Mr. Van D.;rc:; in 1 830 received in Alubaaia 20. "HIO votes, Mr. White 13.613 votes, making a majority of Near 5,' 00 for Mr. Van Pureti out of3"0'0 votes. The Van Duren party have always had 111 that state from 20 to "0 majority in the legislature, and last year InJ U'i majority. This vear the legis lure stands 10 Whigs 51 Van Duren. which shows that the Whigs have gained tremendously in this stioug hold of Locofocoism. 'Illinois. The Alton Telegraph, of Saturday, gives the names of thirty-eight Whigs, thirty-three Loco Eocos, and one Conservative elected as members ot the House of Representali ves. The political complexi an of the House is regarded as very doubtful. The state is Loco-Fo-co. An immense vote has been polled; some estimates make it over 00,000 and a few days ago our political friends were disposed to concede a majority of 2000 against them. Dut as the official returns came in, it is quite as likely that the majority will be the other way. Ten counties in the N01 th-western District electing two members, and giving seven thousand votes having polled majorities for the Harrison candidates, unking in ihe aggregate nearly fifteen hun dred majority. There is no good reason to suppose that Illinois will not givo her vote for General Harrison in November, even should there be a nominal majority in the late election against tho candidates who came out in his favor. e?5 THE Presbyterian choir will resurno their weekly meetings, commencing this evening at early candle-lighting, at the Presbyterian Church.

Was il to make political capital, or excite commiseration in "twelve good and lawful men?" Tho President still in tho Field. A review of a letter from Mr. Van Duren to some gentleman in Virginia bv the editor of the National Intelligencer: The 5th question put by Messrs. Cary and others is in the following words: "5. Do you approve cf Mr. Poinsett's scheme for the organization of the militia?" In answering this question, the President, after modestly conlessing hat his "knowledge of military affairs is very limited," presents an historical view of the constitutional and statutory law of the United States on the subject of the militia, and of successive plans for improving its organization. He refers to reports of chairman of committees of both houses of Congress, as indicating their opinion that "Mr. Poinsett's (plan) is, in several respects preferable to those which have preceded it, and is calculated to effect a more equitable disposition of the whole military force of the country than any before presented." After stating and commenting on tho difficulties which beset this subject," arising from the provision in section eight of tha first article

Nor was the. avowed object o; these extraoidinary proceeding-i less remarkable than tho act; themselves, being nothing less than an attempt to fix upon me the design of establishing a standirig army of two hundred thousand men for political and personal purposes.

Jf 1 understand my own feelings, my cl-i'f regret in witnessing such degrading exhibitions arises from a consideration of the opinion ivhich foreigners, who have not the same reasons to respert our political institutions that ire hare, are lihthj to form of the ch'irncttr of our People, when they see that can-i-piruo'ts men among us ran promise ihernvlves any advantage from attempts to delude, their ftlluiv citizens by j;i.nn of each minstrous absurdi'ies.

I'.vfracf from the Message cf the President of the. United State to thn two H)nsc.i of Congres-i, December 2:, r:i. The pr:5f.t or.ditia:; of tho defences of our principal sejpuits and navy yards, as represented by the accompanying repoit of tha Secretary of War, calls for the early and serious attention of Congress; and, as connecting itself intimately with this subject, I cannot recommend too strongly to your consideration the plan submitted by that officer for the organi. a'i on of the militia of tho I "nited States.' J Extract frrnn the rejort of the Secretary of It ar, dated Aocanbcr 30, 183. , accompanying the Message of the PresHlent of the United States to the two houses cf Congress on the commencement of 1st session of the '2 'tt'i Congress. 'It is proposed to divide, the United States into eicht military districts, and to ormi.o the mili tia in each district, so as to have a body of twelve thousand live hundred men in active service, and another of equal number as a reserve. This would give an armed militia force of two hundred thousand men, no drilled and stationed as to be ready to lake their places in tho ranks in defence of tho country whenever called upon to oppose the enemy or repel the invader. The age of thu recruit to be from twenty to thirty seven. The whole terra of service to be eight years : f uir years in the first class, and four in thn reserve. One fourth part (twenty five thousand men) to lenve the service every year, passing, at the conclusion of tho first term, into the reserve, and exempted from ordinary militia duty altogether at the en 1 of the second. In this manner twenty five thousand men will be discharged from militia duty every year, and twenty five thousand fre.di reerui's be received into tho service. It will bo guHcient for all useful purposes that tho remainder of the militia, under ceitaiii regulation provided for their government, be enrolled, and bo mustered at long and s ate I interv als; for, in due process of time, nearly the whole mass of the ittilitii will pass through the fir.-t and second classes, and bo either members of the active corps, or of the? reserve, or counted among the exempts, who will be liable to be called upon only in periods of invasion or imminent peril. The manner of enrolment, the number of days of service, and the rate of compensation, ought to be lived by law; but the details had belter bo left subject to regulation a plan of which I am prepared to submit to you." The extracts just given from t he Report of the Secretary of War, and which the Clerk of the house of Representa tives certifies "to be all contained in the Report that relates to the subject of the extracts, show what was the plan submitted by that officer for the organization of the militia of the U. Stales," which the President in his Message said he could not "loo strongly recommend" to the consideration of Congress. This is the great plan and tho whole of it. And yet we find the President talking of "a garbled extract from that document, falsified by the suppression of a mateiial part." The points left open are, "the manner of enrolment, the number of days of service, and the rate of compensation; all of which the Secretary thinks "ought to be fixed by law," "bul the details," he thinks, "had better be left to regulation a plan of which," ho adds, "I am prepared to submit to you," addressing himself to the President. It ihus appears that, though Mr. Poinsett's report to the houso of Representa tives was not made till nearly three months, and his letter to Gen. Kelm was not written for more than four months af ter the date of the President's Message, his plan was before the President when he transmitted that Message, and actually formed a part of the Message itself! Scarcely had the .Message been made public, before the plan, as unfolded in the report from the War Department accompanying the Message, received searching
