THE TRUE VAN BfjREN CREED.
In order to clearly understand and truly ap
preciate the mighty issueaintolved in the result
of the approaching Presidential contest, it is re
quisite that the people snppld know with precis
ion and certainty to what jprinciples Martin Van
Buien stands committed. I j Thousands of bis hon
est adherents in; the StaleTpf New; York, and in
other States' also, refuse tl; believe that he has
identified himself with! this doctrines of the rad
ical party and press in :tbi city, or that tbey are
prouuigated with bis sanction. iiis silence up
on these topics where it was politic to be silent,
and occasionally a disclaimer where it seemed
necessary, have blinded the eyes ot the unsus
pected ; while the studied suavity and bland con
descension of the President to his '' democratic
fellow citizens" in the interior, during bis recent
tour in search of popularity, have helped mate
rially to confirm the self-delusion, j Under ihfse
circumstances, if is impotant that every man
who is to lake part io the: Presidential election
of 1840 should know whatfare the political doc
tiines and measures recognized as orthodox by
i he present incumbent of the Presidential chair.

Oo Wednesday nightj the ISlh instV six
white men some of whom were painted and
one colored person, entered ! the house of Mr
Nathan Lambeth, Davidson County, -N. C,
seized his person .dragged him some distance fronf
the house, ther gagged him, and inflicted on
bis body several hundred blows! with sticks.
Four of the parly becoming somewhat' alarmed
at the consequences, fled, while the other two
remained and renewed the beating.until Lambeth
became insensible and fainted.
fn this situation the paity left him, but, after
coming too, he with gret difficulty reached the
house, and on Thursday night, died. It is stated
by the Physician who attended him, thai he
was scarred and lacerated from his neck to bts
heels, and that there was tbe appearance of sev

overheard a man of wealth sealing with a work5
man whom he had employed, and claiming a de

man) had spent a poriioo of biajimetn walk

the market, the whatvts. T.i seemed
teatonaWe on the part of the employer, as ihe

workman went utT, rather diessiisfied at ihe.de
