THE PRESIDENT IN THE FIELD. f
The most remarkable confession which has yet been
made of the alarm known to be felt by the Administra
tion party b 'President VAJr I3e-BKK's answer, just
published, to a letter inviting him to attend a meeting
of his partisans held at the White Sulphur Springs in
Kentucky j on the 1 1th of July last, When he left the
eat of Government; last year, to pass four months in
his native State,' though the visit was unusually long,
and though he rather ostentatiously let it be known that
he . was travelling as the President; of a party; his
friends argued that the necessity of recreation after se
vere official toil was an adequate motive for the jour
ney, and objected to any other explanation ol it as the
offspring of i censorious spirit. .The letter to . which
we have referred, admits of no such ' apology ; unless,
indeed, the distinguished writer expected his health to
be benefited by . the exdtement of composition.'
The letter is, plainly, an electioneering document ;
elaborate; and embodying the ad captandum topics of
the political sect of which he is the head.' The ener
gy (not to . use a stronger term) of the diction, when
compared wirh the courtly moderation which has hith
erto characterized Mr. Van Buren's compositions, in
dicates the pressure of his circumstances ' Indeed, this

Convention at this place on the 12th instsnt, and no
language can convey an adequate idea of the e'xbila
rating spectacle which was presented on that day. It
is true we cannot boast, like some of our old and densely-populated
sister States, of having bade Conven
tion of twenty, or fifteen, or ten, or even five thousand ;
yet, as the infant of the Union, with a small and scat
tered population, not much given to pageantry, we
taint we may justly boast of a great and glorious gath
ering or ireemen in the one thousand 4 log Vabtn
Boys who have assembled, at this busy season of the
year, to pronounce condemnation against the men and
measures which have deranged our currency, prostra
ted the industry of our country, trampled upon our
rights, and which now threaten the total subversion
of the precious institutions under which we livej The
spectacle .was one which must be seen to be fully ap
preciated.! No mere combination of Words can -describe
the electric feeling the mute eloquence of that
heart beaming from the eye the glowieg countenance,
or the hearty and heart-stirring response of the assem-
heard Mr. M. make a Speech on political matters, and j pressure must be severo'when a gentleman of his tact
be was evidently taken by. surprise but bis remarks
were of the highest order of excellence, and had, we

When Mr. Mordecai finished, Dinner was announc
ed. Joseph Gales, sq. presided, assisted by John
Hinton, Esq. J It was a most substantial affair, gotten
np in the true Republican style, and was seasoned by
that which alway s gives a zest to enjoyment, viz t real
old-fashioned hospitality. When Dinner was conclu
ded, the declining sun gave warning, that it was time
and prudence is driven to the expedient of descending
from the Presidential chair into the political arena to
fight in the ranks : It will perhaps have the expected
effect of rallying the party ;" but, unless we greatly
mistake the temper of the American People, the con
verts whom it makes will be, - like those made by his

Our Log Cabin presented on Saturday last, an im

a body of Horsemen from the patriotic District of

hastily summoned together; formed a procession with
Music, and marched to the suburbs of thetown, where
they welcomed their friends, and forming in line,march
ed through the principal ' streets, presenting an unbro
ken column of nearly a. quarter of a mile in length.
Our friends from the country brought a welcome offer

having been disposed of, it was very soon filled to

the sitting of the Supreme Court at Columbus, to col-:
lect'information from and compare notes with gentle-;
men from all parts of the State, the result is a firm,
well-grounded conviction that Ohio will elect Mr. Cob-
viir (for Governor) by at least 15,000 majority, and,
carry the Harrison ticket by a still larger majority..
This result (says the Gazette) appears to us inevitable.
In 1836, Ohio gave 202,333 votes, of which Harrison
obtained a majority over Van Buren of 8,501 votea.
Since that time numerous changes are known to havei;
taken place against the Administration, and the change
is still going forward. The Whigs are now united:
and active the People are alarmed and roused. 'The
oldest among us have never before witnessed so much
zeal, activity," or determination.' Ohio will probably;.
give 240,000 votes, and of these; we think, our friends:
may count upon 125,000 for Habbisox."

The Clerk shall hereafter make out his docket so as

cording to the Circuits from which they have been re
spectively brought, beginning with the 7th, and pro

provided in the rules referred to, the causes (will, after
the 8th day of the Court; be taken up in the order in
which they may thus stand on the docket. It is, nevertheless,-
to be understood that a State cause may be
taken up out of its order When the Attorney General
