With regard to Col. [Iaininond he desires to say but littie. His acqutaintance wiWfi'timts geti tieman has never been of an intimate or confi dential ch.-arac:er.

The fli pp'an ommunication of the individuannl, who, by the ass-umption of' the ionposing I p. thet of "Sub-Treasutry." has forced his per. sonal tirade upon us. has fallen far short of ir ritating him, whom't it was intended to injnre, or weakening the confidence of his political *friends. As the geitlemnan to whom this anonN - nious ptiiipic was addressed. cannot, of course, condescend tio regard it. I beg the induligeice of the community whilst a portion of this "B:n net" prodtctitmn is reviewed. .and-the cnims of the writer's particular favorite (Cdl. Richard son.) to the confidence of the State are impar tially disctnssed. "Smib-Treasury" appears greatly coincerned, and even affects it gascon ading indignation that Col. Hammnbiid should have beem informed that etfort were tiakiig t injure him here. Whether it be that his self stitliciency has been niortified by being roiled in the attempt of "working imi the diirk." ior his anger excited, that Col. H had not anirnani - nously hee.i debarred the expresioi of iis po titical opinions; or whether it he that the slow. hut certain decline of Col Peter's coidrs.

We wish ,onr respected corres pondeut. as lie has madi' the charges, broad and uiielniv'ocal, had'g'vo us tie specificatiors and the rensotis to sustain them.. To make der larations or charges is one thing easily perforin ed, bat to 'substantiate them by proof, is ano tier ihIug,'nsually considered of impirtance, atig sometimes 'attended %% ith difficuIdty. It is cert:nniy infbruioni new .and strange to us, that Mr. Van Buren Was oppqscd to the late war, and to Mr. hadisoi's Admtinistratinn. We have not been aware that his early politi cal lire was devoted to the FedernI party, the party oppo'sed to the war, and would be pleased to see the proiof which would establish the fact. Will our correspondent permit its to Imake ati assertion? Itis'.his, tiiat Mr. Van iBiren, thro' out the whole course of his brilliant and success fil political career, with but few exceptions (and who is not sometitmes in error?) has been the able, effirieit and generons supporter, of the mensures and principles of the old Reptb. lica'n party. While inl Conress. his general I course was'direediel to sustain the faith. and vinidicate the principles of this party; and lie was usually found by theside'of Rafidol.h. Ma con, Tazewell and otler patr ints, doin baitle in the good cause of Republiennism. We refer to his votes and speeches, for pro'ef of wlit, we have asserted. Another of the grave and soleni charaes, "reasons"-of our correspoident arrayed a. gainst Mr. V:t Buren, is that lie is an Aho.i. tionist. Why did lie not a;so acctse ir. Cal hotnt of being an Abolitionist, for ie too is op. posed to a National 1ank, and to the election of Gen. Ilarrison ? lie might have done so with eqnal propriety atl no less surprise. since the well known course of Mr.Vnn Binreu upon this subject. since his inflexible fidelity and uniwa vertng constancy to tike pledges which lie has made to snstain the domestic instittions of the South. But the char ge is preposterous, and a; such we should lave paswdcf it withouti notice, as our Correspoudunt has brought forward no evidence to snstain it. Our corrv-epoi-dent -so objects to Mr Van Buren upon'the groitnff of his 'p posi:ion to tihe old United States Bank. This we presumtie is the secret of all our correspondent's "'reason" against "supportingi"' r. Vati liBuren. This is certninlv astrnnge objection to urge to the pen. ile of sonth Cm olina, who long since passed their judgment of conieimnation itu'on this Ill stitution; a judgtmentt which we are confident. they will never reverse! It was ie firm ant! unlidtering stand which Mr. Van Buren took in 1637, in opposition to a National Batik, and chartered monoplolies of every kind, that first won him the confidence and support of South 'Carolina. This confidence, generously yielded to a i iner adversary, has mit been nisplaced. Hie to whom it has been rendered, has cast the whole weiglit of his administration it, favor o. Southern rightsaid iistitultions, as gnaranteed; under the Federni compact, and is now sl, portiig with fidelity and zi:l, wih firmrers and ability. all the primciples of the old Repub licain farty. It is true, as our correspondent siys. that in 183,6, Mr. Calhoun and other taleted stsmen were opparied to Mr. Van Burell. But for rea sons which juti~fied a change in theta, in rout Moti with the State, we refer to the extract be. !w.
