THE REASONS'r

IHE HEASONSu
We understand friend OF ours in Lexington
has received letter from Mr.. Clay, giving hi.
reasons for taking from the printing OF the Ia
| The leading reason we understand to be, because
we did not come out against Mr.. Clay as well a.
MI. Adams! because in pra ising the former and
opposing the latter, we laid Mr.. Clay under obi
cations, In justice TO Tr. Adams TO take orr ia IN.
printing! How mdgnanpnous and disinterestedI
but bow long si', since MIR. Clay felt il his
duty TO Punlsh the Argus for speaking irrev-
| erentIy OF MIR. Adams? Had he been made Pre-
'ldent by our opposition to Mr.. Adams relative
10 the Client business, &c. would he have
thought IL right to punish US for that opuo
sition! We guess not. Why are we punished
now! Gao this change in Mr.. Clay's feelings have
arisen from the fact, that he then hoped 10 be mad,
President by opposing Mr.. Adams, and now
hopes 70 attain the same elevation by support
ing him! And is this the reason why he is nov
more careful of Mr.. Adams popularity than tina,
gentleman was.himself, when he continued the
printing 10 US notwithstanding our opposition 10
him9
But how will the reason given apply tn the O.
Their printers who shared the same fate? The News
Ham psnire Patriot opposed both Adams and CLAY.
and that was displaced. The Eastern Argus was
neutral, and opposed neither, and that was dis.
placed We opposed oae and praised the other, and
we are displaced Now, how can the Secretary he
pleased and the printing retained! In relation to
the Patriot, be said, be would not put staff into
an enemy's hand to knock out his brains, In re-
lstion 10 the Eastern Argus he said. we will have
no neutrals'. And in relation TO US. be saws. he
removed US because we opposed the President and
praised the Secretary.
Put all these acts and reasons together. and 90.
shall get at the truth. The printers must NOT or
pose both; they must not oppose one; they must no,
be neutral; but they must support Adams and CI,v

In the absence of specific intelligence from any
quarter which calls for comment, 1t may be atogeth-
er useless task to make rapid survey of the ex-
isting political relations of Europe.
The extreme boundaries of the Continent pre-
sents the chief materials for argument. In the north
and in the south, as II as throughout the whole OF
the Central States, there is profound repose but
Portugal and Spain in the west, and Turkey in
the east, are the theatres where important events
have occurred, and where events Of still greater i'm
poriance threaten to occur.
Portugal approaches the termination OF her crisis,
or rather. we should say approaches one of the ter
limitations of those vsisstudes to which she has been
exposed Don Miguel at length returns. to assume
the vlceregal sceptre, and administer the govern
ment, in the spirit Of the constitution bestowed by
Don Pedro. His assumption of royal power under
the limitation granted, as it will be by the Soveregns
more Immediately in alliance with Portugal sets at
rest political sophsm. upon which calculations Of
a far different character had been made. The in
tesrity and legitimacy of the Sovereignty. as in-
herent in the person of Don Pedro, thus estab-

and if he acts with proper vlgor, more may be accom-
plished than seem, probable.
The situation of Spain is one of still greater com
plexity and difficulty not merely as concerns Spain
herself but as her destiny is closely connected with
the policy of France. Until order and tranquility be
resored--until something like stability is impaired
to the Government-there will never be wanting
plausible pretexs for the interference, direct indi
rect of that country; and this interference, assume
what shape it may. will bring into discussion with our
own government many delicate and embarrassing
questions. An invasion tolerated rather than appro-
we'd. by England, has ended by leaving his Catho-
lie Majesty in worse situation than it found him.
What power Ferdinand really possessed land It is

THE VICE PKESIDENCT.

letter published in the New York Commercial,
dated Washington, Dec. &, says
There was some conversation yesterday among
members about a suitable candidate for Vice Pre-
sident. Several gentlemen were mentioned, among
whom were Gov. Shulze, Gov. Morrow, Gen. iar-
rison, Chief Justice Savage, and Gov Pleasants.-
There seems to be desire ofpreserving the usage
which locates one Of the two highest offices IN the
gift of the people OF the North, and the other in
the South. lfthis principle should govern, think
Gov. Peasants will be nominated. He is. as you
know, a gentleman of fine attainments, much en-
deared 10 Virginia by various and faithful public
services. He is represented to be exceedingly
aniable in private life, and is known to be endowed
with exalted public virtues.
P. S--l passed the evening where the subject
of the Vice Presidency was discussed. Unless cir
cumstances now unseen, shall change the views OF
the friends of the administration, Gov. P. is the
man. Hei is, and has been, warm friend. The

Extract of IA letter from an intelligent and infuen-
tia man 10 Ohio to his friend in Baltimore, dated
December l., 1897.
81 think it certain as any event yet to happen,
that the vote of Ohio Will be for Adams by at least
10000 majority. The noisy clustering Of the Jack
son men would induce strangers to believe all OHIO
was for Jackson. Not so-in no event and under
no circumstances can Jackson get an elector in this
State. My advices from various parts ofkentucky
are of the most cheering and gratifying character
the vote of that State will beyond all doubt. be tor
Adams. The friends of the Administration in that
and indeed in all the Western States, are organizing
themselves and will hereafter move in solid column.
They have too long relied overwhelming strength
and the goodness of their cause-this will no
longer answer in these times Of bargain and intrigue
Let every man who is not ashamed TO avow himself
the friend of our enlightened administration put
forth his strength and do his duty, fearlessy and
manfully, and all will be WE'LL"

suit"
The Treasury Report which we presented yester-
day, is in one vieS verv cheering, as 1t shows an
abundant revenue aud diminishing debt. About
sixteen millions and nalf of the principal OF the
debt have been exnguIshed in three years. not only
without new burdens but during the same TIME
nearly twelve mi lions Of interest have been regu
ary paid while all the expenditures for the public
service have been going on, and III some cases extra
ordinary appropriations have been made. Inc no
minal debt will, on the LIST January 1898, appeal
to be 81 millions of dollars but, OF this amount
seven millions are invested in the stock OF the Banl
of the United States, which, under all clrcum
stances will be worth the cost; SO. that sum is no
in fact debt, but beneficial investment whicl
produces good interest. Then there is furthe
sum OF i3 millions Of per cents, which as it can
not by law be bought by the Sinking Fund at pric

therefore be deemed rather as constituting permi

THE BALLOON.
By Miss Lucy AKIN.

The airy ship at anchor rides;
Proudly she heaves her painted sides,
Impatient OF delay
And now her silken form expands,
She springs aloft, she bursts her bands.
She floats upon her way.
How swift! for now see her sail
High mounted on the v,ewess gale,
And speeding up the sky,
And now a speck in etner tosl--
A moment seen, a moment lost
She cheats my dazzle,i eye.
Bright wonder, thee no Tapping wing,
No abouring oar. no bounding spring.
Urge ON thy fleet career;
by native buoyalcy lmpclled,
Thy easy fight was smoothly held
Along the silent sphere.
No cuiling mist at close of light,
No meteor on the breast of night,
No cloud at breezy dawn;
No leaf adown the summer tide
More eHortless is seen to glide,
Or shadow DER the lawn.
Yet thee, e'en then, the destined hour
Snail summon from thy airy tower,
With haccid sides that droop forlorn,
Thy breath atherlal spent.
Thus daring fancy's plume sublime
Thus loves bright wings are clippd by time
Thus hope, her soul eate,
Exhales amid this grosscr air.
Thus lghtest hearts are bowed by care,
And genius yields to fate.
