PRESIDENTIAL NOMINA
TIONS.
FIT JAMS4 PART0N
We continue the publication of the interest
ing articles by Mr. Parton, oa the means by
which the various Presidents scoured their
nominations:
The measures taken by General Jackson to
insuie the Buccesxion to Mr. Van Huron shall
now be briefly indicated. During the first Bum
mer of his Presidency, the General was iu suoh
feeble health that his iiiends concluded that he
could not survive the term lor which he had
been elected, and it occuired to one of them,
Major William H. Lewis, that, if the President
should die, Mr. Calhoun would succeed him, and
Mr. Van Huren's prosjiects he ruined. To pre
vent ho dire a result, he induced the General
to write a letter, to be published in .case of
his death, wainily commending Mr. Vau
Buren, and neverely denouncing Mr. Cal
houn. This letter contained the following
passage:
"Permit me here to say of Mr. Van Buren,
that I haTe found him everything I could de
Hire him to be, and believe him to be, notouly
deserving my confidence, but the confidence of
the nation. Instead of his being selfish and
intriguing, as has been represented by some
of his opponents, I have ever found him frank,
open, candid, and manly. He, my dear
friend, is well qualified lo Jill the highest office
iu the gilt of the people, who iu him will find
a trne friend and sate depositary of their rights
and nineties. 1 wish 1 could say as much for
Calhoun and some of his friends."
The latter proceeds, at considerable length,
to debcant upon Mr. Calhoun and his political
errors. To guard against accidents, a copy
of this letter, signed by the General's own
hand, was retained in the secret archives of
the VVhite House. As, however, the event
which it contemplated never occurred, the let
ter was never used, and the old friend of the
President, to whom it was addressed, never
knew its real object.
Vice-President Calhoun was too important a
character at that time, and had too many claims
upon the support of his party, to be easily set
aside. It was therefore concluded, iu the se
cret councils of the White House, that Gene
ral Jackson must serve a second term, and
ineasuies to this end were taken, early in the
spring of the General's first year. An adroit
letter wa3 written in the White House to a
member of the Pennsylvania Legislature, a
thorough-going adherent of the Administration,
which contained a suggestion that bore fruit.
"I am not authorized to say," said the author
of this epistle, "that the General would per
mit his name to be used again; but, knowing
him as I do, I feel confident that, if he believed
the interest of the country required it, and
that it was the wish of the people he should
serve another term, he would not hesitate one
moment. If, then, it is the desire of your
State that he should serve another term, let
the numbers of her Legislature express the senti
ments of the people upon that subject. Let it be
done in such a way as not to make it necessary
for him to speak in relation to the matter."
The hint was promptly taken. In a few
days an address appeared in the desig
nated newspaper, requesting General Jack
son to serve a second term, and it was
signed by sixty-eight members of the Legis
lature. Similar tactics elicited similar ad
dresses from the Legislatures of New York
and Ohio; so that, before General Jackson had
served fourteen months of hU term, he was
brought forward conspicuously, as the candi-

valuable posts with, unscrupulous partisans
of the Administration, made it the easiest
thing in the world for the President to call
forth expressions of opinion in favor of any
Vtn&n or any measure.
ii i , , i - ii. r t.
Dir. v.iuuuu.ii, wuo was uu inaicu lur vuu
President and his Kitchen Cabinet in political
craft, was continually giving them advantages
over him. He tnougut to injure Andrew
Jackson's popularity by publishing his hostile
correspondence with the President, forgetting
that the President controlled the Democratio
press of the country, and could thus give to
the party his own interpretation of that cor
respondence. Jackson accepted the defiance,
and promptly dismissed from his Cabinet the
three members of it who regarded the Vice
President as their political chief, and appointed
in their place three of his own friends. It was
thought to be necessary, also, for Mr. Van Buren
to withdraw from the Cabinet, and thus escape
the operation of the rule which excluded
Cabinet ministers from the succession. His
resignation was accepted, and, to remove him
for a time from the scene of political strife,
lie was sent as Minister to England.
Then the Vice-President blundered again.
Allying himself, for the moment, with Whig
Senators, he formed a combination powerful
enoueh to relect the nomination of Mr. Van
Buren, who was thus compelled to return
from England after holding the post of Minis
ter for a few months. Mr. Calhoun was con
vinced that such an emphatio censure, by the
Senate of the United States, would lay his
rival prostrate forever. He was overheard to
gay to one of his friends: "It will kill him, sir,
kill him dead. He will never kick, sir, never
kick." Seldom has a man been more mis
taken. The Democratic party welcomed Van
JJuren'a return as they would have welcomed
a conqueror, and General Jacksdu instantly set
on foot measures to make the rejected minister
Vice-President of the United States.
There was a difficulty in the way which
much perplexed the White House managers,
and the solution of which has had important
and lasting consequences. How should Mr.
Van Buren be nominated for the Vice-Presidency
f Other gentlemen had their eyes upon
the post, and Martin Van Buren had not the
national reputation which could call forth a
spontaneous and universal nomination. It
was also highly important that this nomina
tion should appear spontaneous, and espe
cially that the President's hand should not be
seen in it. It waa Major William B. Lewis,
the President's most confidential friend, and
an inmate of the White House, who suggested
the solution of the problem. In a letter to
Amos Kendall, of May, 1831, he reviewed the
situation and the claims of the several candi
dates, and added the following words':
"Surrounded by so many difficulties as the
case is, and taking every thing into considera
tion, many of our friends (and the most judi
cious of them) think it would be best for the
Republican member of the respective Leg
islatures to propose to the people to
elect delegates to a National Convention, to
fce holden for that purpose at Harrisburg, or
gome other place, about the middle of next
jlay. That point is preferred, to prevent an
improper interference by members of Con
cress, who about that time will leave this city
for their respective homes. If the Legislature
of New Hampshire will propose this, I think
it will be followed up by others, and have the
effect, no doubt, of putting a stop to partial
nominations. Von had better reflect upon this
Proposition, and, if you think with me, make
the suggestion to our friend Hill," (one of the
Senators from New Hampshire).
This ingenious proposition was approved by
Mr Kendal and Mr. Hill. The docile legisla
tors of the Granite State, to the number of one
i hundred and sixty-nine, immediately met in
I caucus, and adopted the plan which Major
Lewis bad suggested. The Globe seconded
the proposal for a National Convention J other
Legislatures sanctioned it; and due care was
taken, by the friends of the administration,
that the right delegates should attend it. The
Convention met at Baltimore, in May, 1832,
and it consisted of three hundred and twenty
six delegates. Leading members, who were
disinclined to vote for Mr. Van Buren, were
given distinctly to understand that they must
vote for the President's candidate or be pre
pared to quarrel with the President. Such
was the power of the Administration, and
such the discipline of the rarty, that, out
of the three hundred and twenty-six
delegates, only thirty-six presumed to
give a vote against Martin Van Buren
just enough to impart to the delibera
tions of the Convention a slight show of inde
pendence. The people, however, were not
quite so obedient to the mandates of a party
chief. General Jackson received two hundred
and nineteen electoral votes in 18132, while
Mr. Vau Buren received but one hundred and
eighty-nine; which, however, wa3 forty-four
more than he needed.
Thus was inaugurated the system of nomi
nating candidates by National Convention;
which has continued to the present time.
State nominating Conventions had been fre
quently held; and, when railroads were about
to make all parts of the country easily acces
sible, the system properly and naturally be
came national.
The plan is open to objections, as every plan
would be; but it is probably the fairest and
best which the cast admits. The great objec
tion to the system does not exist iu the system
itself, but in the overshadowing influence of
an administration through its control of the
office-holders. So long as the President pos
sessed an unlimited power of removal, a nomi
nating Convention consisted, necessarily, either
of men in office who desired to keep their offices,
or of men out of office who desired to have
office. No Convention for the nomination of
Presidential candidates has ever yet been hell,
which did not chiefly consist either of office
holders or office-seekers. The Convention,
for example, which nominated Air. Van Buren
for the Presidency iu 183G, was almost entirely
composed of men pledged to his support, and
whose defection would have been instantly
visited by their dismissal from valuable posts,
or the dismissal of their friends.
It was in no sense a deliberative body. No
choice was given it. No regiment of the army
could feel itself more bound to obey the orders
of its colonel than this Convention felt itself
bound to comply with the known desires of
the President. It is well for the people to
understand this. A President who remains
united with the party that elected him, and
who has an unlimited power of removal from
office, is in a position to dictate to the Conven
tion of his party the man it shall nominate.
Andrew Jackson was gone from the scene.
Men whose will is stronger than their in
telligence are disturbing influences in pub
lic affairs, like hurricanes and earthquakes
in the natural world; and it is surprising
to notice how speedily the ordinary ten
dencies resume their sway when the dis
turbing influence is withdrawn. The nations
of Europe, for example, took their ancient
boundaries and institutions the moment Napo
leon was suppressed, and things went their
usual course almost as though that conqueror
had never existed. Andrew Jackson, by the
force of his tyrannical will, had put Van
Buren up, but he could not keep him up; and
he had put the nulliflera down, but he could
not keep them down. The old feuds re
mained, and the natural antagonisms revived.
Mr. Van Buren, however, besides being an ex
cellent political manager, was naturally in
clined to conciliation, and the personal ambi
tion of Mr. Calhoun was at that time more
powerful than his attachment to the compact
band of Southern men of whom he was the
chief. Mr. Van Buren opened the door of
reconciliation very wide, and the country was
soon surprised to see the South Carolinian a
favored guest of the White House, and a de
fender ol Mr. Van Buren's Administration.
The Democratic party, therefore, was still
united, and Mr. Van Buren experienced not
the slightest difficulty in securing a party
nomination for a second term.
It was formerly part of the unwritten law of
politics, that a President in lull communion
with his party was entitled to a nomination
for a second term. The example of General
Washington, in declining to serve a third
term, no President has been willing to disre
gard, and it appears to be as binding as though
it were a part of the Constitution. But a
failure to be once reelected used to be con
sidered in the light of a stigma. So the first
Adams regarded it, and so the second Adams.
It was as though they had been tried in the
administration of the Government and had
been found wanting; and it was therefore
regarded, not as a dignified retirement from
an exalted station, but as an ignominious
dismissal from it. John Adams, indeed, was
so indignant at his rejoction by the peo
ple in lbt'O, that he could not bring
himself to remain in Washington to witness
the inauguration of his rival, but hurried away
at daybreak on the last morning of his term.
And it was many years before the people gene
rally regarded him in any other light than that
of a man rejected and disgraced. His wiser but
less gifted sou submitted with a better grace.
Not the less, however, wa3 his defeat iu 1828
considered ignominious by the party which
had elected him.
Mr. Van Buren, faithful to the principles of
his illustrious predecessor, and having at hia
absolute command the whole1 army of office
holders, was renominated in 1840 without the
slightest formidable opposition. He fully ex
pected to be reelected. From his remarks
upon the campaign of 1840, in his work re
cently published, we may conc lude that he died
without understanding the causes of his defeat,
which he attributed to a momentary popular
delirium, excited, he says, "by a ruthless war
of eight years," waged against him by the
friends of Henry Clay. He even expected, like
General Jackson, to name his successor, and
that successor was to have been Thomas II.
Benton, of Missouri.
But in the United States there is always a
power behind '-he throne greater than the
throne itself. In spite of appearances to the
contrary, the people do rule. Party mana
gers frequently appear to aoniroi tne course
of events; but, upon the whole, and in the
long run, tiny do so only so far a3 they
execute the real wish and intention of the
people. Everything which they do, every
part of their mysterious and extensive plans,
is executed with a distinct, a conscious
reference to its influence upon elections,
which is only another way of saying that
their aim is to anticipate and execute the
public will. Skill in party management
chiefly consists in leading the people in the
way in which they desire to go.
Mr. Van Buren's failure in 1840 was owing
to a single error committed by General Jack
son, and sustained by himself The great
event of General Jackson's Administration was
the destruction of the United States Bank, a
measure popular at the time, and ever sinoe
sustained by the people. The error to which
we refer, the oonswiuonoea of which were in
herited by Mr. Van Buren. was not the des
truction of the bank, but the destruction of it
without providing a suitable depository of the
public money to take its Place. Th sub-
treasury had not yet been thought of. The
money of the Government was scattered
about among twenty-five State banks, and
the possession of those funds gave to the
banks an unnatural and pernicious ex
pansion of their capital, and tempted
other banks to increase the volume
of their currency. Thus the country wa9
flooded with paper money, which stimulated
the wildest speculation in land, and brought
about a state of things similar to that which
prevailed during the third and fourth years of
the late war. Three months after Mr. Van
Buren's inauguration, the reaction reached a
crisis, the bubble burst, the banks suspended,
merchants failed, credit ceased to be, and ruin
filled the land. General Jackson had sown the
wind, and his successor reaped the whirlwind.
The retribution was just, for nearly every im
portant financial measure of General Jackson
had received Mr. Van Buren's support.
"I arrived," he tells us in his posthumous
work, "at New York, from my brief mission
to England, after the 'Bank bill' had passed
both Houses, and on the day it was sent to
President Juckson for his approval, and left
the next morning for Washington. Arriving
there at miduight, I proceeded at once to the
White House, in pursuance of an invitation
he had sent to New York in anticipation of
my coming. 1 lound the uenerai in bed, sup
ported by pillows, in miserable health, but
Hwake, and awaiting and expecting me. m
fore suffering me to take a seat, and whilst
still holding my hand, he, with characteristic
eagerness when in the execution of weighty
concerns, spoke to me of the bank, of the bill
that had been sent for his approval, and of
the satisfaction he derived from my arrival at
so critical a moment; and I have not for
gotten the satisfaction which beamed from
his countenance when I expressed a hope
that he would veto it, and when I declared
my opinion that it was in that way only
he could discharge the great duty he owed
to the country and to himself. Not that he
was ignorant of my views upon the subject,
for in all our conversations in respect to it
before I left the country and they had been
frequent and anxious my voice had been de
cided as well against the then existing aa
against any other National Bank. Neither that
he was himself in doubt as to the course that
he ought to pursue, for he entertained none.
But the satisfaction he evinced, and which he
expressed in the most gratifying terms, arose
solely from the relief he derived from finding
himself so cordially sustained in a step he had
determined to take, but in respect to which he
had been severely harassed by the stand taken
by the leading members ol hi3 Cabinet, and
by the remonstrances of many timid and not
a few false friends, and as yet been encouraged
only by the few about him in comparatively
subordinate positions, who were alike faithful
to principle and to himself."
bo the great banks which had for twenty
years received and disbursed the publio money,
passed out of existence, and that publio
money, distributed all over the country in
weak banks, became a public curse. Air. Van
Buren, singularly ignorant of finance, was
utterly unprepared for the financial storm
which drove him from power. A few days
before his inauguration, Colonel Benton took
the President elect aside, and predicted the
coming crash. Mr. Van Buren, though the
best tempered of men, was a little nettled,
arid said, "Your friends think you a little
exalted in the head on that subject."
Colonel Benton was silent, and, as he says,
"miffed." As he left the room, talking with
the ' President elect on other subjects,
he said to himself, "You will soon feel the
thunderbolt." The thunderbolt fell In May,
1837, and the effects of it were felt in the
pockets of almost every voter during the next
lour years; and it was through the pockets of
many of them that their understandings were
reached.
