ordinary qualification to be present in

of the dinner to be given TO Mr.. Clay,
by the citizens of his native county:but
this is forbidden me by considerations
which | am not at liberty to disregard.
Towards that distinguished citizen [
need scarcely say that l entertain feel
ings of the highest admiration and re-
gard. When the work of detraction
was atits highest point, l lost no suit
able occasion TO give expression to
my sentiments concerning him, and
have never failed to vindicate him, as
far as was in my power, againstthe mall
ice ofhis enemies; and now when all
men, seemingly of all parties, unite in
bearing testimony TO his high and ex-
allied worth, and when recent events
have furnished him new opportunity
for the display of that noble disinteres-
tedness for which he has through life
been distinguished, judge We with what
pleasure should meet him in the soil
ofmy own district, and in the midst of
my own constituents. AS however,
this is denied me, nothing more remains
to me than to wish you most joyous

A NEW WING JOURNAL,

HNHE undersigned have been induced
Il by recent events TO commence the
publication of new Wing Journal at the
seat of the General Government. The
scheme has been stimulated into immedi-
ate development by the extraordinary de.
lection Ito use no harsher term) of poI-
ton of the Wing party, and by the gen.
eral feeling of indignation which is mani-
tested in all directions at the mischieyous
and fratricidal purposes of few ambi-
tious or selfish politicians, who aim to de-
stroy the fruits Of the glorious struggle of
1910.
We shall raise the true Wing standard
and do battle 10 the best of our abilities
for the integrity of the great Wing party,
and the contamination of all the reforms
contended for in the late canvass. We
shall 90 for such an Administration of
public affairs as will NEE. the generous
confidence and fulfil the patriotic expec-
tations of the American People; and, in
furtherance of these objects, we shall ded-
icate the experience of many years, and
zeal for the great cause which the viciss.
tudes Of time have in no degree abated.
Prompted, as we are, 10 this task by
the advice of the Wings in all quarters, we
shall expect jealous cooperation in our
plan on the part of members of Congress
and others.
The subscription price of the paper
(which is TO be semi-weekly in the recess,
and thrice week during the sessions of
Congress) viii be five dollars per annum,
invariably in advance.

tract all he had said of Doubt as to
Mr.. Webster's holding his station

his visits to Mr.. w. every day down

LETTER FROM MIR. WISE.


Gentlemen-I have delayed answer
ing yours of the 10th instant, in order
TO make arrangements, if possible to
accept IFS kind invitation TO attend the
dinner in honor of Mr.. Clay, by the
citizens of his native county, at lay
louisville on the 9th inst,
need not tell you what | think of
that man Henry Clay of Hanover. He
has done for himself what friends and
fortune can do for no man, and has
acquired what neither friends nor foes
can take from him-'a fame for which
himself has fought" and 10 which no
mans praise can add, ndfrom which
no mans censure can detract. And
that fame is his reward. Office could
not add cubitto his stature. He has
reflected honor on the place of his
birth, and a Henry was born there be-
fore him; he has maintained the repu-
tation of Virginia's sons, and Virginia
is the mother of "heroes, statesmen,
and sages." That is enough for any
one man, and it is enough for you to
claim him as your own-you honor
yourselves, in honoring Henry Clay.
None can impeach his disinterestedness
now, and l wish that all Virginia, all
America, could see him, as you will
see him, and hear him as you will hear
him-a teacher, an experienced tea
cher of eternal political truths, and a
witness of facts for freedom against
freedoms foes. Heed him beseech
you-heed him whilst you may.
