 was extremely sorry aO perceive iB your last pa. per that yOu should intimate such iaIenGiON as is expressed in this seHsiment:-'. For gay that care not how soon he tAIr. Clay9 abandoned for more pOpnlar caudidate."-Cas iI be possible that you would recommend the abandonment of Henry Clay Gor another person tor "mOre popular candi- datei" Where s be lO be found in what section Of Ghe country does hs reside can he be found within Ihe borders of New-England M.
 i've have received through the post office the pre- ceding queFiess We assu,e our correspondent we have no idea of abandoning Mr. Clay 90 long as hs eAanee for success is favorable. But if we become fully convinced that he stands chance being cleo. ssd agaknss tle popuariy oi Gen. Jackson--and t some oaher iadivduA, in whom tlte public have
 dsnce shall he proposed. who has a strong hold up- on the affections of larger proportion of the people, can improprieiy in declaring such an inten. Iton. Our correspondent has not however fairly qno- ted our remark. 1t not recommendation aban- don Mir. Clay--it was. that if-on this little word realed every hiag-that 1 he could not carry the oi his own state, bis friends might look around and Six upon some person who would be likely io concen- srate more votes. There is no man tn the U. States whom we more desire to administer the highest Executive office than Henry Clay. There is man is our view better qualified for the office. But do repeat, that # after the ensuing elections in the west are oVer, t be thought that he cannot successfully compete with Gen. Jackson, and that other per- Mr. Clay and uniting upon that person. 1.-The be a man of unbendng integrity, of unimpeached and un- impeachabe honesty, and unquesiionable qua6ca- 'ions tor the discharge of the duties of the office, we care not whether he come from the west or the east from Ohio or New.England, we would checrfuy give im our support. We conceive that there is no state !" the union which produce at least one man, all things taken into consideration, better qualified for exercising the duties of President than the present m cuinbens. And we think every good citizeo, every read to the welfare ol his country, and the perpetua ton of its free institutions, should unite in hurling him from the place he is miseraby qualified to fill.
