 l mean to have nothing 10 do with the place of MT. Van Buren's birth--nothine with his parentage, and nothing with his acts, until he began 10 act for himself. I shall begin with him when he began for hImself-not as d school boy, nor a student al law-not as a practitioner, but as party to the events of his political life, from which that life takes its color, and which will not tall as certainly to establish the complexion of the man, and his principles, as does the blood of the Ethiopian the color of his skin.

 MT Van Buren's first political deyelope- merits, upon large scale, began awhile previous to the late war. It was from that great event in the history of our country. that he first meditated rise to distinction and power, and sought to accomplish this ] at the cost of the honor, and treasure, and blood of the country! This position will proceed to establish.

 It was about two years before Mir. Madi- sons term of service was to expire tIiat war was looked for with Great Britain. The British party III America united their forces, and made furious onsets on both Jefferson and Madison. They were denounced and persecuted as the originators of the quarrel, &c. This particular feeling was seized upon by Martin Van Buren, and the occa- sion was used by him, in connexion with the Peace party, to break down MT. Madi- t1H fore me, T shall draw from them through ou) state that such was the strength of the union between the British party and certain leaders who claimed 10 belong to the dem ocratic party III New York, that serious fears were entertained by those who were friends of Madison and the war, that New I ork would be lost to the administration.

 At this conjuncture, 1872, Martin Van Buren was elected Senator. He was elec- ted, be 1t remembered, by the Madison par ty, with the understanding that he would side with the policy of that party, and of course go with the war.

 The cry had gone forth against Mr. Ma dison for having recommended war. 4 peace party was formed. This was in the summer ofl812. Mir. Madison's popuari- ty was assailed, and measures were set on foot to prevent Mir. Madson's election. In June, 1S12, war was declared. Just previous to which De Witt Clinton was brought out as the Federal candidate-to op- pose Mir. Madison. Clinton received his nomination n cGucus, Tn May, 1872. This caucus nomination of De Witt Clin- ton, was met on the other hand by the reg ular nomination of Mr. Madison as the war party candidate. Mir. Van Buren opposed this nomsnaison. Soon after the declara- ton of war, meeting was held ofthe Fed eral party in Mir. Van Baren's county. This meeting, 1t has not been questioned, was got up by tae demoeTatic, war supporting Martin Fan Bure,,. James A. Hamilton, then, and ever since, the confidential friend and instrument of Van Buren, took lead in that meeting. g.-From this Van Bureli Federal meeting emanaied an address, sign ed July Sth, followed by certain resolutions signed by this same political, and personal, and partisan friend of MT. Van Buren, James A. Hamilton, and others of kindred feeling, and of Van Bufen's creed of po- litics. Now reader, take an extract from these resolutions.

 "Resolred, That the war is IMP0LI- TIC. UNNECESSARY, and DISAS- TROUS; and that to employ the militia in an offensive war, (refafring to the contem- plated invasion of Canada,) is UNCON- sTITUTIONAL.n

 This is one specimen of Mr. Van Blu fen's ssfrankness." He was elected to the Senate, as the friend of Madison and the war, but ever anxious to be on the strong side, and believing, as was the very geter- al belief at that time, that the peace party would prevail, he threw himself upon that partys organized the Federal meeting as stated, and took position against both MT, Madscn and the war.

 Lest any one should question this act of perfidy--this preference of party and office, to country, and honor, will quote extracts | from papers known to be under Mr. Van Buren's control. Ii became necessary, as electors of President and Vice President were to be chosen in that year, that every nerve should be strained to break down Mr. Madison. Van Buren had now staked his all, as he supposed, on the contest now waged between the peace party wilil Van Buren al its head, and the war party and MT. Madison as its leader. Look at the follow ing extracts from the Van Buren papers, Aug't5 1SI2.-aAn administration which enters into war without revenue, without preparation and without plan; or with prepa- ration worse than none, pursues amiserable course,2 &c.
