From tlir UuiH'd States Ttlvgraph uf Feb. xrt. We insei t, to-day, a note from Mr Van Burkn, disavowing Ins connexion with the conspiracy against the Vice President. It came to us ab* tit nine o'clock, just before our paper went to press. Wc have had scarcely time to read it deliberately, much less for the expression of all the remarks which its peru perusal - sal perusal suggested. It is as we expected! From the time we read the (Correspondence, we did not doubt that those who were connected with this f til plot wi uld be anxious to escape from it. How far tlie disavowal of those whom circum circumstances - stances circumstances strongly indicate to be connected, may be considered sufficient for their acquittal, we leave the public to judge. Mr Van Burnt has certainly made one most ui guarded expression. He asserts, that he hnd no motive or d» sire to create an impres impression - sion impression to the prejudice of Mr Callr nn in the goed opinion of Gen. Jackson. If he had no motive to get up this plot who had? Gen. Jackson had no motive. We defy any man to point cut the least possible interest which he could have had. in it. Its tendency is to divide and distract his friends; to weaken and embarrass his administration T-»».*»« A ].T - lajq. win* makes so prominent a figure u this affair, could have had no metive » f his own. Mr Calhoun did not stand in his way. Mr Crawford is clearly acted up n as t relates to Mr Hamilton. 'Phis appears by Mr Forsyth's letter to Mr Hamilton. As to Mr Forsyth, whose name appears, wc take it j for granted that Mr Van Bunn himself will j not desire to hold him up ns the prime mo mover. - ver. mover. As to Mr Bnlch and Major Lewis, the other names which appear, we make no re remark. - mark. remark. Mr Jran Buren no motive11 Docs he not aspire to an higher office? Have not his friends held him up as a prominent candidate tor that office, and did not a paper in Georgia, in his interest, gravely predict, at the very com commencement - mencement commencement of the administration, that this very affair would lead hint into the favor of Gen Jacksr.fi to the exclusion of the Vice President, and thereby present the ladder fur promotion. The assertion is unfortunate; but this is not his only misfortune. It so happens that net a name has been presented in c« nncxinn with this transaction, but < f those who are the po political - litical political friends; wc believe we might say, the personal, p' litical and covjidentialfrientls and correspr ndents of Mr Van Buren. Mr Van Buren is known to have unlimited influence over his political partisans, and wc do hold it almost miraculous that a subject of so much import to himself, should be agitated by these friends, with' ut his knowledge or participa participation; - tion; participation; and that the scheme should be matured here, in this citify while he was present, by one so much in itis confidence, who was pi.ic pi.iced - ed pi.iced as his substitute in the Department of State, and who had recently acted as his re representative - presentative representative at Nashville and New-Orleans, without his advice, countenance, or know knowledge' - ledge' knowledge' It may be, but if so, the age of mira miracles - cles miracles has not passed.

to inforrti It im of the result, n order, as I un un1 - 1 un1 dcrstood, that lie might be prepared 11 repel ' an attack on Oen, Jackson that was anticipa anticipated, - ted, anticipated, connected with that subject, hut above ' all, if possible, to produce a perfect recon reconciliation - ciliation reconciliation between those gentlemen and their I respective friends. On my arrival at Sparta, (Georgia) where I hoped to see Mr Crawford, I a si ertained that he lived so far out of my Way that to go to his house would delay me in my journey eight or ten days, and that it was p'rob ible I would-not find him at home when I should arrive there. 1 therefore pushed on to Sa Savanna, - vanna, Savanna, whence en the 25th January, 1828, I wrote to Mr Forsyth the letter referred to by h m in his letter to Mr Calhoun, dated May 31st, 1830. As I did not retain a copy of that letter 1 must speak i f its contents from reodlectinn. - By it 1 informed him of inv disappointment in not having been per permitted - mitted permitted by my arrangements to visit Mr Cl aw awford, - ford, awford, the Inquiry I wished to make i f him as above staled, and requested him when he should meet Mr Crawford, to shew him my letter, and tnniniunicatc the ' Ntw-York. , . - t- i is.. _,-Ss-al-»< Washington in February, I resided daring the day ur two I remained there, ill the s ame house with the Vice Presi President; - dent; President; and being anxious to obtain the infur infurmatii - matii infurmatii n before referred to - (having, as 1 feared, lost the opportunity to do so from Mr Crawford) - after advising with a very honor honorable - able honorable and discreet friend, residing in tiie same house, as to the propriety of doing so, I re requested - quested requested an interview with Mr Calhoun, which was granted. (I may here be permitted to say, that I never saw or head of the letter written by Mr Crawford to Mr Hnlch, until it was published; and that I had not the slight slightest - est slightest knowledge of the course Mr Calhoun had considered it his duty to pursue in tile cabinet on the occasion referred tn; on the contrary, the impression 1 had received from those con conversations - versations conversations was that Mr Calhoun was in favor of, and Mr Crawfold was adverse to, Ocn. Jackson.) When we met. I askrat Mr Cal Calhoun - houn Calhoun " whether, at any meeting of Mr Mon Monroe's - roe's Monroe's cabinet, tiie propriety of arresting vJCn. Jackson, f.uf any thing dene by him during the Seminole war, had been at any time dis discussed? - cussed? discussed? To which he replied - "Never: atir.h a measure was not thought of, much less discussed. The only point before the cabi cabinet - net cabinet was tiie answer that was to be given to the Spanish government. " Our conversation was extended, and, on his part, embraced much that I have never felt myself at liberty to disclose. After he had gme over the whole gnund, in order to avoid tiie possibility of mistake, 1 asked tiie Vice President whether he considered his an answer - swer answer to my question, affording me tiie infor information - mation information to obtain which I had sought the inter interview, - view, interview, confidential or not.

The following is an extract of a letter from Dublin, published in the Courier of January 28th. "January 26. - The proceedings in the Court of King's Bench yesterday have given a turn to affairs, wh eh must lead, and that mi st speedily, to a crisis. If the Judges dif differed, - fered, differed, as to the legality of the prosecutii n, from tile Crown, the crisis might have been delayed ; but as Mr O'Connell's conviction is now beyind a d< ubt, the crisis is at hand. - Pray do not undervalue the danger of that crisis.
