Buchanan In rennsylvans, Gov. Cass In Michi-
gan, and Col. Johnson among the "tag-rag and
bob-tail' everywhere Out Of their own limited
spheres, they are all weak we have no reason
to fear either of them. Those who understand


the science of war know that able generals are
quite as important as soldiers, and far more diff


cult to be obtained. Now il SO happens that Mr.
Van Buren rallies under his banner almost all


The old skilful and experienced generals of the


party; those who in the Jackson Italian cam


paigns Of 1925, o. n, and IS, and 1929, 80, 81,
and '32, led each his regiment, brigade, or divi.
sion into victorious fields; while few or none Of
them are enlisted in the service Of his competi-


tors. This is a fact we should not overlook nor
lightly estimate. True, they have not a Napo-
leon, nor Jackson, to infuse their own lndonita-


BILE spirit into the rank and file, and inspire them


with an enthusiasm nothing short Of madness !;
but they have a leader who is prudent, wary,
cool, and cunning who never suffers himself to
be surprised nor drawn into an ambush. What
he lacks in impetuosity, he makes up in pru-
dence and caution said to be sneakng virtues,
but nevertheless, very important TO. success, All
his opponents, we think, Wings as wellas Locos,
are inclined to underrate his real strength; not
that we have the least doubt but that MIR. Clay


can beat him; but, with him as the leader, we
should see the active and experienced men Of the


party, those who have heretofore lived upon, and
would now be inspired by the hope Of again en-
joying the spoils," buckling on their arnlor and


putting forth their whole energies. INV s4s3s
"a That Mr. Van B,lren will be the nominee Of
the Locofoco National Convention, we have not
the least doubt. He has already secured the
election Of his friends as delegates to the Con-
vention, from New York, Connecticut and Maine,
and there is not a shadow Of doubt but the
whole delegation from Ohio, will be of the same
complexion That New Jersey, Maryland, Vir-
ginia, and Tennessee will also send delegates
favorable to him we do not question. He is the
man then, against whom we haveto contend !;
we have exiled him onceito Elba, we must now
meet him again at Waterloo, and then give


him a free passage to, ST. Helena, or Kinderhook.
