 fsr-l'res'dcnt Van Buren-ahat hs friends think of h'm-Ihe following brief review is copied from the Baltimore Republican, an opposition loco loco paper of the straighest sect Now that Mr. Van Buren has no longer at his disposal the bestowal of offices and largesscs from the treasury, some of his ouon dam friends speak of him as he deserves to De spo ken Of by alias the hearrless buder up of his own fortune, regardless alike of the interest of others or of his country. Postery we h. no doubt will do him justce-and that is what he hss most to fear.

 MIR. VAN BuREN AT HsaE.---assf. Van guren has ta- ken up his residence at Kinderhook, after public career of thirty years, which the Albany Argus de- cares has been "alike honorable to himself and he nefcia to the substantial interests of the conntry We have no wishes concerning the ex-President Tn his retirement save such his best friends enter tam tor him. But 1t is strange thing to assert that NAr haah hnon har Eo.o I al. tia interests of the country. MT. Van Buren, as n ! statesmaH has shown himself deficient in con,nre- hensveness His projects were for the most part personal and selfish, and of course narrow in scpne The sagacity which he exhbised partook of the na- ture of cunning, rather than 0t foresight He seem cd to regard politics as game and he played with crcumspeCton, availing himself of all the dexterous means that came to hand. Those qualities of human nature which he understood best, and could work nnon with success, were nos te highest qualities- Ills observation had been msfr among political lea l ders tfan among the people themselves. He knew all the arts and appliances of party manag cement and he trusted to them as the of elevation by reason oi his own superior tact in using them. The 1 power which overthrow him at last was something that he had little conception of it had not entered into his calculations; for it from the great bo- dy of the people in the spirit of honost patriotism in- dignant at imposition.

 | The substantial interests of the country promoted by MT. Van Buren What great interest of the country was there which he did not play with, ac. nofng % r as the chances o1 hs Eo, political seemed fact for any interest except his own? What great policy hns he established on the basis of the national interest? What important works has he accom- plished? Through what contingencies of difficulty and danger has he led the country by the steady hand of able statesmanship? These are questions to be answered by negatives. His lavorte policy is aIrca- dy dsmantled system, incapable of operation. Of works he has left nothing, save n neglected task which the succeeding administration must perform, suffer the country to remain almost defcnceless and one Ot the last acts of his government broil relations with England to such an extent, that nothing but the calm frmncss of aber statesmen saved the republic from war.

 If Mr. Van Burens administration has been of ser 1 vice to the country, it has been SO in the way in which misfortunes are useful as lessons of expert ence. Politicians may learn from his example that would possess the confidence of the people ; and that patriotism, how much soever the term may De snncred at by men wise in their conceit, is reGl thing and worthy of tlsr attention.
