A correspondent observes, that the opposers of the re-election of the Vice-President, have carefully avoided the affirmative in their discussion of that gentleman's pretensions to the suffrages of his fellow-citizens—well knowing that his abilities and services oppose an impassable barrier to the force of those wire-drawn insinuations which have an influence on uninformed and prejudiced minds—but, continues our correspondent, the artifices of these theoretical and intolerant politicians, who torture opinions, not imbibed in their school, into crimes, will most assuredly fail, so long as reason and common sense shall influence the conduct of the citizens of the United States.
