'""e'"""!""- 7' I 'The Rejected Minister. , The Senate have rejected -the nomination - of Mr. Van Buren by the casting vote of the • Vice President, after a deliberate and - tho -rough investigation. The rejection, miler such circumstances, sucb a body as the &mate, cannot fail to have its 'full weight; but what gives still Fester weight to the decision in thk case, ts; that the mdividuil is now the representa tive of the .Governmeat at London, and that his is the first case' in which--the. Senate have refused to confirm the nomination of a Minister who haft:already entered on his du, ties abroad. It is but fair to suppose that this fact had a great influence upon the • Senate, and, that had he not left the United States, he would have been rejected by a very decided majority. From our intimate knowledge of his char acter and conduct, and of the mischief of which he has been the Cake, we cannot doubt but what his corruption and -intrigue will filly justify the Senate in withholding its advice and consent to his appointment. We verily believe that he has done morel corrupt and distract the Government and the Country, to discredit and tower its char acter, than any man living. He has let in the foul, and polluted stream of New York system which considers the hon _ors_ and emoluments of GOVernment as the reward of partizan zeal, and not aa'the re ward, as they ought to be, of talents, integ rity, public services, and pritriotism . , To effect his scheme, he had to securelm as cendency over the Chief Magistrate of the - Cetmtry, and in this he was, unfortunately, • y • successful, by a resort to the vilest. • - •i• • means, — He seized on an unfor e.;. • • • •••, circumstance, the . existence of which l ; lte virtuous and honorable deplore,,but in ,Whichr, most unfortunately for the character -_and interests of the Country, and his repu tation, Gen. Jackson permitted his whole - soul to bo enlisted. We allude to the cir cumstances.inrthe rn actofJl . Eaton- It -ie well known to all the well informed at ' Washington, and could, if necessary, be pro. .ved in a court of justice, that Gen. Jackson's original determination was, not to permit himself to be enlisted in her case, but to leavei it, where all questions of social relations ought to be, to be controlled by the sense of society. But after the arrival of Mr. Van Buren, and after he had, by his art and in _fluence,..tem • ted the res ectable ladies of the present Secretary of the Treasury and of the present Minister to France, to visit Mrs. Eaton, he became emboldened, and hoped, trough his influence. and management of the President, to turn the question of her re lation to society, to . his pplitical advantage. With such respectable examples, it was not difficult to pursuade Gen. Jackson, with his known and devoted attachment to'Mrs. Ea ton, that the objection to her admission into society, originated in political- opposition to him; and that too on the part of those who. had been his early, long trirJ, and devoted friends. Begining- from this paint, ai led by Lewis, Kendall, and the rest of the profligate and corrupt crew,: whom he had brought to the *oat of Government, he, in process, produced the rupture between the first and second ofli- leers of the Government; without even the pretext of a cause, he exploded the, cabinet of which he himself was a member, under circumstances which most forever disgrace the country, andfied to Europe to avoid the odium, with upwards of $20,000 of the pub l t i C mo_ney; caving a regency Kninc him, • • tho executive and the patronage of the government, to take charge ofhis interest during his absence. - Notwithstanding all this, which can be proved in a court of justice, his partizans, with hundreds of purchased and subservient presses with all theinfluence of the govern - , - etTout - TRir ecutitm; d, 00311 - Ttrz ward - 14 - bw - eorrupt services, in the profits Of which they have so deeply participated . , - endeavor to. smuggle bim into the Press en ty, through the Vice Presidency, "noi enc volens," as the only_means. by which they "can make him President." This was the design from the first, delili- erately formed, but concealed, to he effected by the Baltimore convention, got up by his tools, and to be controlled by his partizans. The rejection is but the pretext, and, had he _been confirmed', that circumstance would have been used as. amore powerfid pretext of acquitting him of all the charges which are arrayed between him and the object of his ambitions—V. S. Telegraph.

Singular .Fact.—Mr. Wirt was counsel thy the government against Aaron Burr, in the celebrated trial of the latter for high treason, and the records of that day bear ample and honorable testimony to the zeal, skill, and • ready talents with which the then young 'counseller asserted the rights of the couittry against one of the most alarming atteinpts of vaulting ambition which have ever endanger. ed it. Little did Mr. Wirt or his friends then imagine that his great powers of mind were at that time thrown into the same are na as now—usserting the "suprenta ry of the laws" against Free Masonry. But such was the fact. It has since appeared that Burr carried on his treasonable operations under .the secrecy of Free Masonry, and that many of his letters were written in the roy 41ar-ch hieroglyphics. MP., Wirt was, there fore, perhaps the first man in this country to stand up between masonry and the laws. How strikingly appropriate that he should be placed in the position in which ho now stands.
