NE W BERN : W EPMC3DA Y, FEBRUARY 8, 1832, 0 jr readers are referred to the Congressional jour nal on the second page of this paper, for the proceed jMof the Senate in relation to Mr. Van Buren, w-hss nomination, it will be seen, has been rejected. This result, produced bj means of a coalition con eating of allthe federal members, Mr. Calhoun and Senators trom boutn Carolina, nas realized our anticipations. From the moment that Mr. Clay's elec tion to the Senate was announced, we believed that the tv Presidential candidates in that body would coal cite in opposition to (he appointment of Mr. Van Buren. As the successor ofjMr. Clay in the office of Secretary of State, this gentleman had, in connexion with the president, corrected the blunders of the late Adminis tration, in relation to the West India trade, and under hie guidance other greSTt national interests which had been neglected by the "travelling cabinet," were successfully aud honorably adjusted. - This prosper ous state of things (did not verify the prophecy of Mr Clay; for instead fef the" curse of " war, pestilence mil famine," which was to follow the election of Gen Jackson, our country was enjoying, in an unexampled (ic'reoj the blessings of a wjse and prudent Admin- ,jUatibM. Mr. Vai Buren must, therefore, be sacri lire J. Of - Mr. Calhoun's course on this occasion -xp will -oiiiV remark, that a3 an aspirant for the Presidency, it will not avail him any thing ; the p"i'!e will regiri his union with the opposition "3 the Administration, in its true light, and reward i.-im accordingly. The federal members, led on by ijc rnoclv-pitriot, Daniel Webster, acted in concert v. ith Messrs. Clay and Calhoun, andrgave an undi vided votcin opposition to the nomination. This was . laracteristic,; ami the gentlemen deserve the thanks cf their party. i The consequences to the country, ofthis vindictive proscription on the; part of the Senate, wllbe of serious importance: Mr. J Van Buren, (says the Globe,) was s elected to adjust a great question in which the Chief Magistrate felt the deepest solicitude. The system -of impressment, which, although the cause of the last had been waived in the treaty of peace, by it was concluded, it is foreseen, must inevita bly involve this country in difficulties again with Great Britain, on;thc breaking out of an European war, unless some plan be devised, in anticipation, to 'prevent it. Mr. I Van Buren was commissioned to eitW t this important object, because the station he had hel l in the great commercial State of New York fiic elevated character he had maintained in the Sen ate of the United States and as Secretary of State under. the present Chief Magistrate, were supposed well calculated tq give him the highest consideration -with, and most favorable reception by, the English ad ministration. Mr. Van Buren. moreover, had become ii : - favorably known to the power with which he was sent to negotiate, bf ?thc previous correspondence he had held with it. He was further recommended to thechoice cfthe President, as suited to undertake the delicate i . mibaion on which he was sent, because he was the personal and intimate' friend of the English Minister, late resident in this city, and therefore likely to bring toll ic aid oC his own talents, and skill, and expert . enec, the influence of Mr. Vaughan, who is nowT, we believe, of the Privy Council of England. correspondence embraced alt that was in any wise material. Here, then, at that early day, these instructions, now the subiect of so much declamation, were fully disclosed : the mode in which they had been executed, fairly laid ojn, and the Senate and Congress neces sarily consulted whether they would approve what had been done, and accept the trade in tne manner inwhichit had been asked, & upon the terms proposed. If there had been any thing in the instructions, ur in the correspondence, in the slightest degree deroga tory to the national pride and dignity, then wa3 the time to point it out: if the negotiation had compromit ted our honor, then was the time to avert it : if the terms on which the trade had been sonciieu, auu likely to be obtained, were disgraceful, then was tne time to reiect it, lor that reason uieu iuc J ' . 1 1 n thai' Mr. Webster, might nave given iuu rican feelings, indignantly to cast sac me oner, i i... aont "a noon uuou bucii mill i i v ii iija.ii.iiii"i "v i' " war, which ; j From the Globe. If there &utbe found any parallel for the extraor dinary violence pf the proceedings by which the Chief Magistrate's nomination of Mr. Van Buren has been rejected, it will, be in the extraordinary tolly and in consistency of the pretences by which it is attempted to he excused. We shall in due time expose the utter shallowness of tfrese'pretences for they are evident ly only pretencjes by facts and reasoning the most conclusive. Wje shalhnot fail, also, to expose the ef frontery with which Mr Webster, in the face of his almost treasonable opposition to the embargo, for the . cake of " traded' of his un-American separation of his party, not merely from his sovernment. but from his country, during the war, in the face ohis sub sequent agency in the Hartford Convention, and in those disgraceful measures which were deliberately formed to strengthen the hope of the enemy and para lyze the arm ofhis country, now boasts of American lecnng," and nothing but American feeling, in re proach of the Chief Magistrate, to whose pre-eminent services in that hour of peril, the country owes its tafety ; and of Mr. Van Buren, who was at the same nine patriotically engaged un defeating the treason able machinations of Mr. Webster and his friends. , m me meant time, however, we cannot too 60011 call the attention of our readers to the time when. and the circumstances under which. Mr. IVebsterhns thought proper.to allege the want of American spirit in the' Instructions," as an excuse for his vote against .Mr. Van Buren's nomination. Mr. Webster says, he rejects all idea of holding any right of trade, or anv other rights, as a rmvilexre. or a boon, from the British Government, and thpnrp desires it to be; inferred, that, as the instructions solici- -u u on those grounds he would reiect it. Now. we will hereafter show that the; instructions did not so -rcat it, and that the trade was aot so solicited. Bu we bet? to ennui re. in t.hn mran timp -lirr th SonitD and Mr. Webster stand in relation to this subiect ? We aver thatiboth;the Senate and Mr. Webster, so pir lrom rejecting the trade, before the negotiation - was concluded, and with the. fullest knowledge of the object, and atler an examination of the instructions, u"u a" ve sorresponuence, did expressly consent iiwitiiy i uiKe tne trade, but did positively au thorizc4hc President and ui the same manner, and under the very same '.ructions, which he now presumes to insinuate com proraitted thef national ,honor. On the 26th May, 1830, the President sent a Mes sage to Congress, stating that he was expecting the fcehnite answer of the British Government to a propo rtion which had been submitted to it by ours, upon the subject ofthe Colonial Trade, and inviting Con Srcss to pass a law authorizing him to carry such ar raagcment into effect during their recess, or to adopt retaliatory measures airainst Great Britain. On that o-caon, as it now appears by the public Messages of I f intent, ohe 6th of December following, a co- vy oi me - instructions under which Mr.iMcLane had i: ? 5?' t0ether with the communications which had ,; tnattiniQ passed between him and the British T r?, lnint" wa confldentially submitted to both , vi wgress. And it a!so appears, that this iJ.I. lCilCI, llligllk &. 'j American feelings, indignantly to cast bacic on rlicinmrr tn ardent "a boon UP uuu uj uiu-ii l r- 1 . . . , terms, read an appropriate and timely lesson to the Minister who had acted so reprehensibly. But did An en 7 nid thev even stand still and withhold their sanction, and decline any participation m the m,tt0r7 Nnthpv naseed an act of Congress au thorizing the President to accept the "trade," and to open the ports pursuant to the terms offered by the instructions, and in the manner in which they had hopn pYw.ntfd. Is it not plain, then, that both Mr. Webster and j the Senate have expressly sanctioned the whole "in structions," propositions, correspondence, arrangement and all ; and that they are as much responsible for every part ofthe transaction as the President, or Se cretary or State, or the Minister who executed them. The Senate, having thus acted with the "instruc tions" before them, while the negotiation was pen dinsr. and when, if thev disapproved, thev might have arrested it, and which, if they believed the half of what Mr. Webster now says, they were bound to do, are as much responsible for the instructions, and as effectually assented to the whole, as if their advice had been taken and given before the Minister depart ed upon his mission. This, however, is not all ; the arrangement, was concluded more than five months after the passage of this law: was returned to the United States, and in October following was carried into effect by the Pre sident according to his duty under the law. In De cember following, in his annual message to Congress, the President communicated the result of the whole subject to both Houses, and nil the papers, including x . . 111 11 a.' tne instructions, were puonsneu oy tne uirectiou oi both Houses. The instructions liad not been before known to the British Government;- and the Senate and Mr. Webster, send it forth to the American Peo ple without the slightest objection to any part ofthe subject ! v The exaggerated and factious misinterpretation of the instructions now relied upon, v as first suggested by some scribbler in a newspaper, lived its day in a lew kindred presses, and is hnalJy selected lrom such vihicles by certain purj Senators, to excuse a violent andiunparalleled attack upon the President, and up on ixi eminent public servant, resident in a foreign land. If these instructions be really what these Senators say they are, they too should be made to feel, for they too have given them their sanction ; and the honoiof the nation will not be restore;1 until every one of them shall be removed by their respective State Legisla ture!, l ; But it is idle to attach any seriousness to this pre sence it is an unworthy aiid stale excuse, dragged forth from the oblivion to which public indignation was fast consigning it, to justify an act for which no other excuse could possibly be invented. Un this ground, therefore, these Senators may have nothing to apprehend from their local legislatures ; but for the manner, the time, and the purpose, for which it is brought into use, we know little ofthe American Peo ple, if there be not a heavier judgment in store for them at the tribunal of public opinion. We have not done however, with Mr. Webster, on either of those grounds. His Hartford Convention Americanism and his official and deliberate sanction ofthe instructions ofthe negociation, are matters fruit ful of observation, and we intend to pursue them. From the New York Mercantile Advertiser. We, in common with all the friends of the adminis tration, cannot but regret that the Senate haa reject ed Mr. Van Bureu'a nomination: because we have reason to believe it has been effected upon high party principles, and we are led to this remark from the fact that no complaint has been preferred against Mr. Van Buren since he entered upon his highly lmpor- ant mission, and because the country will not accuse lim of want of talent or integrity, either political or moral. We make these remarks not from any personal con siderations towards Mr. Van Buren, but solely from a sense of public good. The vote of the Senate has caused a strong sensation amone the friends of the administration in this citv, as will be seen from the following notice for a public meeting to be held this evening at Tammany Hall. PUBLIC MEETING. The Democratic Republican Electors of the city and county of New York, are requested to meet at 1 aramany Wall, on Monday Evening, the 3Uth instant, at 7 o'clock, to express their sentiments in re lation to the rejection of the nomination of their fellow citizen, Martin Van Buren, as Minister to England, by the Senate of the United , States. custom; but we freely confess that we have always entertained doubts on the subject, and in this particu lar case, we cannot conceal our fears. Itlmay be a pleasant way of passing an evening, but we hope that this Institution aims at something beyond mere gra- j tihcation. Where anaudience ha3 been previously prepared by a studious investigation of the subject of the lecture, a different classification, or even a new combination of ideas, on the part othe lecturer, may tend to impress the facta more permanently on the mind ; but this is the most that we can hope for, under the most favourable circumstances. An excellent writer of the present day, uses the following language when speaking of this method of instruction. " The unfortunate practice of attempting to teach philoso phy by means of discourses or prelections, and with out regular exertion on the part of the students, is mast certainly an innovation on common sense." A still higher authority, the profound Locke, says : ; Nobody ha3 made any thing, by the hearing of rules, or laying them up in memory ; practice must settle the habit of doing." Such are the opinions of wise men. even where the instructor is competent. If, on the other hand, the lecturer's qualifications raise him not above mediocrity if he be one of those whom Sallust stigmatises as having satis eloquential, sapientiae parum, deserved contempt will assuredly be the only impression left on the minds of his hear ers j and this is a dangerous sentiment in an infant Society, the existence of which depends on the cordi ality of its members, and their respect for each other. The day has passed in which a parade of words with out meaning, had power to please ; and even a sensi ble discourse, when too often repeated, becomes in sipid and uninteresting. We would impress on the minds of those who intend to edify the Society in this way, that this is a reading, as well as a thinking community; that we have good authors on almost every subject; and, consequently, that nothing below the actual possession of super ior abilities and acquire ments can sanction their pretensions to become teach' ers of philosophy in such a community, under such circumstances. perienced calculator will discover a vast difference between it and that tvhicn is commonly practised Both, however, will be discarded by those who are conversant with logarithmick computation. The Washington. Correspondent of a New York Clav paper, says of the nominatton and confirmation of Mr. Livingston, that "the default so often mooted has been thoroughly investigated, and the result is not only favorable, but highly honorable to Mr. Liv ingston. The state of his money concerns with the Government, when fully understood, will redound to liia credit." Bolt. Rep. The following resolution was offered at th&late Ohio Convention of the friends of the Administra tion, and after discussion adopted by a large majority: " Resolved, That this Convention approve the views ofthe President with regard to the Bank ofthe United States, and we believe that the best interests of our country require that that Institution should not be re-chartered." THE CHOLERA. " Sunderland. Nov. 28. "At this eventful period. when a new and nftost alarming disease has reached our shores I conceive it to be the duty of every medi cal man to take op arms, as if he were going to op pose himself to a common enemy, and try every means in his power to arrest its progress, and lessen its mortality. " Whether the disease called Cholera, now in activi ty here, be contagious or otherwise whether it may have been imported from the continent or produced by the agency of unknown causes, it is scarcely worth while to enquire, as it carries with it evidently all the symptoms and appearances to identify it with the Indian Spasmodic Cholera. "I saw some cases this morning in the temporary hospital, with Drs. Barry and Daun, and with the parish surgeon, M. Embleton. The effect at first sight which a case of real Cholera produces on the mind can neither be described or conceived. The whole body becomes torpid and convulsed, the eye sunk, the countenance of a blue livid colour, the voice scarcely audible, and the abdominal viscera seem as if they were pressed in a vice. If patients recover from this stasre of the disease, which seldom happens, typns fever ensues; therefore a new character is given to the disease. " Various mean3 of cure have been tried, butnone have proved efficacious; frictions seem the best mean? to restore the natural action of the capillary vessels, which, once effected, Dr. Daun thinks re covery might follow. Ten new cases were reported yesterday, and eight deaths this morning. The disease is evidently on the increase and three cases have been reported to-day in Newcastle. Laudanum and brandy in large quantities have been recom mended but without much benefit.

A late number of the Lon don Athenaeum has the following paragraph in ref lation to our distinguished countryman : ; "Washington Irvftg, an author whom we leva greatly, is said to be on the point of sailing to Ameri ca, and we think he is right: extinction or literature and depression of arts, riots and bloodshed, and, fin al ly, the cholera in Sunderland, shut up from escape by sea, with full liberty to march wherever it pleases bv land, are, on the whole, no cheering pirospects. We hope, if any of our men of genius are compelled to eeeb for peace in America, that they will be as well recei ved there as Washington Irving haa been here." The Cholera. A letter, dated United State Ship John Adams, Gulf of Smyrna, Sept. 2d., in the Troy Sentinel, says since I wrote from Constantino ple, we have met with a dreadful disaster. Tr night previous to our leaving that city (the 23d. Ang.) thai disease, the cholera morbus made its appearance, on board, and swept away eleven of our stoutr est and best men.

Wednesday, Jan. 25. j The nomination of Mr. Van Buren was probably acted upon in the Senate yesterday. From all that we can hear upon the subject, it must be regarded ex ceedingly doubtlul whether that nomination has been confirmed or rejected by the Senate ; though it is scarcely to be believed that any party or rather a ssrange comoination 01 political iractions, can nave had the hardihood to insult public opinion, by the re jection of one ofthe most proper and popular appoint- ments ever made by our worthy President. W hat reason what objection, other than such as has no foundation but party hatred, can be urged against Mr. Van Buren as our Minister to England, we are at a los3 to conceive. It is whisperedthough we can scarcely believe it true, that Mr. Clay has made him- self one of the busiest and most bitter in opposing Mr, Van Buren. Should this prove true should the nomination have been or be rejected, and the result in any degree brought about by the active hostility of Mr. Clay, it will but render the certainty of his defeat " assurance doubly sure while at the same time, the causeless exhibition of political rancour the insult to the President for an appointment which met with general approval the indignity done to Mr. Van Buren for no offence, unless an important service to his country be offence will add to : the popularity t both of General Jackson and Mr. Van Buren, and, in the end, prove the most effectual ser vice which could have been rendered to the latter divisor, for the next quotient figure.
