Tho late friends of Mr.. Van Buren are called
to meet in the Park tomorrow and raafy the nom-
;naton, of Polk and Dallas at Baltimore. Dir
Ben Butler will Of course be there 10 oil The
wheels of the machinery with his eloGuence anc
Mr.. Van Buren, will send letter, saying that he
heartily approves the nom,na'ion &c. &c. Each
of the actors will play the part set down to hun
decently and according to book, and the unthink.
ing multitude will shout Amen, as they would dc
TO anything their leaders had prepared for them
though we believe there is not a man OF any note
In the Loco. Foco ranks whose nomination would
have been ratified with 30 little heartincss, so
much choking, as that Of James K. Polk. Still
he iB the candidate he must be supported or the
contest abandoned, and they will contrive to
swallow him.


All this is the dictate Of inevitable necessity.
But il is not inevitable that the influences which
defeated Mr.. Van Barren should be shroudei from
sight and we insist that MIR. Butler, or what
ever Delegate to Baltimore shall speak on that
occasion, shall frankly state to that meeting ohy
and hop Mr.. Van Buren, was defeated, when
three. fourths of the Delegates were pledged by
aheir constituents TO support him, and, even since
the breaking out of the Texas conspiracy, about
three-fllhs of the Delegates SO far pretended TO
regard their pledges as TO vote for him on the first
ballot. Tho Twnuty Thousand Voters of this
City, the Two Hundred Thousand in the State,
who have long regarded MIR. V. b. as their leader
and confidently expected his nomination, find
themselves transferred in momen. to candidate
of whom they know very little and for whom
they must care still less; and they have a rieh,
TO know ,Ohy. Dare MIR. Butler tell ,heml Dare
he come before them with the honest, naked truth;
-" Your favorte, the favoritc and tried party
leader, has been crushed ANONYMOUSLY, not for
any evil he has done-not because an ablcr or
"a better man was presented-not because he was
incapable or unfaithful. or even unavailable
bu; simply because he would not declare for the
Immediate Annexation Of Texas in violation of
tho rights of Mexico, tho solemn faith of Trea.
ties and the Federal Constitution" The men
who have so long sustained Mr.. Van Buren have
right to know this, and should have an oppor
tunity TO pass on the sufficiency of the reasons
Of this overthrow Will Mr.. Butler see TO it
