Tke Globe of the 3Oth ultino contains an arii-
Gle in the shape Of a Farewell Addressto the
subscribers, by Mr.. John c. Rives, the Fiscal
Partner; At the conclusion Of the article the fol-
lowing letter from Mr.. Van Baren is subjoincd:
LINpENwALD, April "a, 1s45.


My DEAR SIR: thank you very kindly for your
noble and manly letter RpoD the subject OF the
transfer. OF the Globe establishment, and repeat
with pleasure what i have already said to Mi.
Blair, that l approve. of your course throughout.


"In laying out of view your own opinions, In
respect either to the necessity expedehcy of the
sacrifice you were called upon TO make and in reg
ulahng your conduct in the matter altogether by
the wishes of those whom The democracy of The
nation have placed in power, you acted with great
propIiey. If anything could have added to your
credit in the transactUn, it is to be found in the
liberal spirit by which it was characterized. You
did not haggle for high prices. or indulge in CEN
sures of +he conduct of those whose views you
were about promote. is too often-the case on
the part of those who are called upon ro postpone
their own for the supposed Interests of their party;
butyou evinced throughout an tarnrst and obTi-
ously sincere desire TO carry the arrangement into
effect upon-term and in a spirit which would be
Inostlikey 10 enable your highly esteemed success
sor TO sustain himself in an Undertaking confess
edlY not free from hazard In all this Mr.. Blair
and yourself have acted in perfect consistency
with your past characters, and have shown to all
what has long been known tome-that your devo-
tion to the democratic cause was not assumed for
the occasion, but real, and of nature which made
you always ready postpone our interests 10 that
of your party, regarding .he latter second only
to those Of your country. For all this you will, in
time, receive from the democracy OF the nation the
credit TO which yon are so well entitled.


" Your personal positions are, am happy to be-
fieye, favorable you could desire. Thanks to
your own prudence, and the favor Of your political
friends, for which no men have eyer been more
truly grateful, you are, though perhaps not rich,
y ct entirely free from pecuniary embarrassments;
and the reputation you have acquired by your pa
per is sufficient TO satisfy a. reasonable ambition.
The Globe has run its career at.too critical peri
Od in political histUry-has borne the democrat
c nag too steadily in the face of assaults upen po
puar sovereignty, more violent and powerful HIa n
any which had ever preceded them in this or any
other country, not TO have made impressions upon
oor history and eur Institutions, which desIin-
ed to be remembered when those who witness its
shall be no more. The manner IN
which it demeaned itself through those perilous
periods, and the repeated triumphs which crowned


rs labors, will, when the passions OF The day have
spent ther force be matters OF just exultation TO
fOu dHu 10 your CITllQEen. INOuC nave ndQ Oetlef
opportunities to witness, nor more interest in OBJ
'eTvfng your course, than Gen. Jackson and my
'elt and am very sure that could not, IT Fwere |
o attempt II, express myself more strongly in fa-
for of the constancy, fidelity, and ability with |
which the paper was coDductPd than he would
anction with his whole heart. He would, have |
doubt, readily admit that il would have beer ex

uniig is ever offered to test the opinion, that,
without it, the principles of our party can never be
