 GeatiemtH v h would afford me much pleasure To avail myself of your polite invi- tation for the 8th instans. and I deeply regret my inability to do so. The occasion which you propose to cotnrnemoraie does indeed deserve, as you. jnssiy assume, to be held in perpetual and grateful rememhrallce by the American people, as we'll on account of the imperishable fame which il conferred upon their arms, as of the celebrity which it gave to an illustrious citizen, whose subsequent. civil career has been as useful io his coaaisy as his military was glorious. E so steadily continuing to do honor to those services, and to the memory of him who performed them, the Tammany Society do no more than lus- tice 10 their own character for virtue and pa- ,riosisfhs Ybur aliusion tr ties war with Mexico $ ia the same Pairioiics spieit, and deserving of equal eommeush,ion--sle path of dpty in regard to il is tdn plain to beainis- taken. Whatever differences of opinion may have existed in regard to a portion of the causes which have led to it's commencement there can be none in respect to the duty of every good citizen to give il, fully sanction ed as it's existence has been, by the consti- tnted authorities of the country, an earnest, undisgnised, and vigorous support,

 l am, gendemen,

 Very respectfully,

 ..-...- aud truly yours, .,... .--. NJ. VAN BUREN.
