as to exclude all members of Congress and
Bank Directors from discounts.
Mr.. Clay said few words against this
amendment. He did not think it expedienl
to put the mark of Cain on members Of
Congress, and, as to Bank Directors, those
Of the branches, having no compensation
ought not, as business men, to be excluded
Their services could not be obtained on such
conditions.

From the U. s. Gazette, Nor. Is.
MIR. CLAY.

We heard it stated yesterday, by one who is in
the way of obtaining information, that the Hon.
Henry Clay had resolved to present to the Leg
islature of Kentucky, at the earliest moment pos
sible, the resignation of his seat in the Senate of
tue United States. The Legislature will not
meet, we believe, until the last day of December.
1t was added, that Mr.. Crittenden would pro-
badly be elected in the place of Mr.. Clay. We
state these rumors as they reach us, and add that
they correspond with what had been previously
said of the intentions Of the distinguished Sena-
tor.
The talents of Mr.. Crttenden are Of a very
high ordcr--the interest of the nation would find
in him an able defender-but the nation has not
been in the habit of doing without the services of
Mr.. CLAW.

Mr.. A. Mosey is the conductor Of the
Richmond Wing. He has been connected with
the Wing Tor the last five years, and we believe
has had much to do with its editorial management
We need not therefore assure our readers that the
Wing will continue 10 maintain its high charac
ter as an able and ardent champion of the Wing
cause, and Wing principles. Mr.. Mosely has to
contend with "veteran Editor" in the person of
Mr.. Richie Of the Enquirer, but though he may
not possess the experience and subtlety with
which age and long practice have furnished his
opponent, yet he will make it up in the more vi
gorous Blows of youthful arm. Mr. Mosey
appears in the Wing Of the 18th inst, in hand
some and spirited Address to the Patrons of the
Wing, in which he makes frank and manly a.
vowal Of his political opinions, and of the course
he intends to pursue in the conduct of his valua-
BILE paper.-Ler. GAG.

1t is an interesting fact, and one perhaps not
generally known, that, within a few years past as
many as twelve or fifteen officers of the Army.
and it is believed some from the Navy, have laid
aside the Military profession for the more peace
full, but not less arduous, vocation Of the Chris
tian Ministry, and are now usefully employed, in
various portions of the United States, in preach
ing the Gospel 1t is natural that this portion of
the clergy should take Leep and peculiar inte-
rest in the moral and religious condition of our
Army and Navy, and that they should be among
the first to concert measures for the spiritual i'm
provemcnt OF these important branches of the
public service. Accordingly it appears that in
cipient measures have already been taken, by a
portion of the clergy above alluded to, in refer
ence to this subiect-.qrmY 8. Nary Chronicle.
