From the Globe. The Contrast, or the difference between great and little men We pub iish beiow for the instruction of Mr. Clay, Mr. Webster and Mr. Calhoun, ihe sentiments of a n.an not only 'end nent in ability, but great in soul, that these gentlemen may learn what they evidently do jol now urderstaud the wide difference between great men and (he small try who '"indulge their individual resentments in "prostrating apolitical adversary." In the New York Convention, in 1821, a proposition was made, the effect of which was to remove the Judges. Most ol these gentlemen were prominent politicians of the fedeial school, and some of them vindictive adversaiies of Mr Van Buren This gentleman, with that spirit and dignity which distinguished the statesman from the politician, opposed the proposition with great eloquence and ubili y lie entreated bis republi

can triends to abstain from the indul gence of political feelings to rise ubovc ihcir ii llucnce. ' He knew well, he said, hnw "apt men placed in their situation hcavUl by discussions, and sometimes pressed b. indiscreet friends were to suffer their feelings to be excited, and lead them into measures which their sober judgments would condemn It was their duty to iise superior to all such feelings. II netsonal feelings would or ought to in

fluence us against the individual who would probably be most affected by the adoption of this amendment, Mr. Van

Uuicn supposed that he &bote all others, would be excused for indulging in them. He could with truth say, that he had fhrough his whole life, been assailed f o.n tha quaiter, with hoitili'y political, and professional hostility which has been the most keen, active and unyielding uI5ut, ir,' said he, "am I on that account to avail myself of ny situa !ion ct a rcpreneri'ativ? of the people, sent here to make a constitution tor them and their posterity, and to indulge my individual lestntmeuts in the pros traiion of my private and political ad ver&ary? lie aoped it vva unnecessary for him to say, that he should forever despise himself,-if he could be capable . r u i . .

ot such eui.uuut.

How much more dignified would the portraits of Mr. Clay, Mr. Webster unci Mr. Calhoun hereafter appear in the history of our country, had they imitated the noble example of Mr. Van Daren, and admonished their friends to adopt a more manly and patriotic course. If thty arc truly the great men their irienris prooounce them to be, how must they "despise themselves" for sacrifi

cing the interest and character of their country in gratifying lbs pitiful revenue of little politicians.
