The M'LEoD case, in anticipation of the trial OF
Monday next, is exciting a great deal ofinterest
in the community, from the fact that fever is
brewing to create more excitement than could
well be aroused without some extraordinary effort
to excite the public mind. The jury is empan-
neiled for the trial, and their names published.-
All OF them are known as good men and true,
and no doubts that the trial will be impartial
The evidence, however, it is probable from pres
ent appearances, will be of very conflicting

MIR. CLAY.-The hearty and enthusiastic re-
cePtlon given to this eminent and patriotic states
man by the people of Wheeling, is thus noticed
In the Gazette of the 22nd instant:
Honorable Henry Clay, accompanied by Mes
Sis. Moorehead and White, of Ky, and White,
Of Of Ind. arrived in city on Saturday evening.
Inc stage in which these gentlemen travelled was
met some six or eight miles from town by an i'm
mense concourse of our citizens, accompanied by
the City Blues Brass Band, and they were es-
corted into town by large procession. On their
arrival at the Virginia Hotel Messrs. Clay and
White, of Ind. addressed the multitude. At
night large number of our citizens met at the
Hotel, and Mr.. Clay again addressed them. Mr..
Morehead also responded 10 their call. 1t is un-
necessary to say that those addresses were wor-
Shy of the distinguished gentlemen who deliver
ed them-they were received in most enthusi-
astc manner, and added to the determination of
the Wing party to adopt for their motto-"Union
and Perseverance,"
Mr.. Clay was waited upon by committee of
our citizens and public dinner rendered to him,
which he was compelled to decline in conse-
quence of his anxiety TO arrive at home.

~" The New York Journal of Commerce as
serts that Mr.. Webster was urgently pressed by
the Hon. John Q. Adams not to relinquish his
post as Secretary of State, voluntarily, at the
present crisis, under any circumstances whatever
Now all this may be true enough, and proper G.
nough, but it does not meet our objection to the
course of Mr.. Webster. No one we believe was
disposed to censure him for holding on to his Of
flee, but on the contrary, all were ready TO ap-
plaud the act, as noble and patriotic, while it
seemed to be influenced by considerations of duty
to the country. Yet this is the case no longer.

uance in office on the ground originally assumed.
bat undertakes to pronounce against the sufficien-
cy OF the reasons which prompted the resigna-
ton of the other members of the Cabinet, And
1t is for that we censure him-for that we feel
compelled to regard him as having committed
himself to those whose interested views, and op-
position to Henry Clay, have suggested the per-
fdous scheme of building up third party,

PHILADELPHIA.

A meetingo of the friends of HENRv CLAY was
held in Philadelphia, on the evening Of the 18th,
at the Bulls Head, which was attended so nu-
merously that they had to adjourn to the spacious
yard of the establishment. The meeting was Or
ganized by calling Joseph II. Chandler to the
chair, and appointing Richard Penn Smith Secre-
tary. The objects of tho meeting were set forth
to be simply to have an organized expression of
feeling for tho favori,e Of the Wing party, whose
nomination tothe Presidency was postponed in
1889, and not 70 undermine any man or set of
men. The following resolutions were adopted
by the meeting:
Resolved, THAI in the opinion Of this meeting
the time has arrived for the organization of the
friends of correct rational principles and to effect
and enlighten public sentiment upon national
questions having reference to the next Presiden-
tial election.
Resolved, That no man in the nation combines
more qualities for general popularity or has great
er claims upon public confidence and public graf
itude than HENRY CLAY and that while no
man has less need of further political advance
ment 10 consummate the glory OF his public ca
reer, to no man does the nation owe greater
amount of that obligation which is usually ex-
pressed, If not discharged by the bestowal of the
highest honors.

cheerfully mite with their fellow citizens of the

on him that morning, and to let them know the
conclusions to which he had come. He also re-
quested Mr.. EwiNo TO aid in getting the subject
properly before Congress. He requested that
thoy would take care not to commit him by what
they said to members Of Congress to any inten-
ton to dictate to Congress. They might express
their confidence and belief that such bill as had
just been agreed upon would receive his sane
ton; but it should be matter Of inference from
his Veto Message and his general views. He
thought he might request that the measure should
be put into the hands Of some friend of his own
upon whom he could rely. MIR. SERGEANT was
named, and no expressed himself satisfied that he
should have charge oft. He also expressed a
wish to see the bill before it was presented to the
House, lift could be so managed. (
NoDtiicn said, addressing myself to Mossrs.
WEBSTER and EWING, that no time was 10 be
lost in communicating with gentlemen of Con-
gress; that there was danger that MIR. EwiNGs
bill would be taken up and reported to the House
immediately after the bill sent back to the Senate
with the Presidents objections was disposed of.
AS the members of the Cabinet rose to depart
or just before, the President requested Messrs.
WEBSTER and EWING, as they had turned their
attention more particularly to the subject, to fur
nish him with written arguments upon the points
they had been discussing. He wanted them to
fortify his own opinion, and to lay up for future
reference. JOHN BELL.

RICHMOND.

The Wing Meeting at the Exchange in Rich
mond is said to have been one of the most over
whelming ever assembled in the city, and on no
occasion during the past contest of 1910, (remarks
the Whig) was displayed a greater enthusiasm,
more determined spirit of devotion to the glor-
Gus cause. Archibald Peasants was called to
the chair, and David Bridges appointed Secretary.
We regret that we have not room for the proceed

and ready To battle again for the great principles
for which they waged IL years. war and that

in power, will have any influence ON their opin-
ions acts.
2. Resolved, That the Wing Senators and
Representatives in Congress, who have remained
steadtast to our cause and accomplished by their
zeal and application somuch In fulfilling the just
expectations of their country, deserve and enjoy
our cordial thanks and appreciation.
8. Resolved, That Thomas Ewing, John J.
Crittenden, John Bel, and George Il. Badger, by
their prompt and voluntary withdrawal from the
Cabinet, have vindicated their own dignity and
high character, and pursued course which enti-
VIII; ;nan, to the highest commentator from the
Resolved, That in our own Representative, J.
M. Bolts, we have the assurance of unfinchinp
fidelity and devotion to the cause which he pro,
fesses to espouse, and that by the well earned
distinction which he has already attained in the
counseIs of his country, he well illustrates the
advantages of a straight forward and manly
course, which seeks only to attain worthy and
patriotic ends by honorable and candid means.
He possesses our fullest confidence and approba-
ton, and with willing heart we greet him, aoeH
done, good and faithful servant.
Resolved, That in every emergency in which
his country may be involved, when difficulties
and distress most betide her, whilst others prove
recreant to duty and false to principle, there is
one man to be found ever true to her interests,
ever firm and undertaking in his course, ever bold
and fearless in the avowal of his sentiments, and
ever devoting his patriotic soul and matchless
powers to the relief of his countrymen and the
perpetuity of their liberties and that man, with
one voice, we proclaim to be-HENRY CLAY.

Erecufsue patronage tn conflict avith the freedom of

opinion.
Our attention has been called to n letter from
Washington, addressed to the "Old SchoolRe-
publican and Ohio State Gazette,o published
iii Columbus, Ohio, and edited by brother
ln-law OF President Tyler. We extract the
subjoined significant passage from the letter:
with the remark that if MIR. Tyler has so soon
forgotten his professed principles in an attempt
to muzzle the press, and control the free exer-
else of public opinion-it will be adding
another to the melancholy list of examples Of
human perfdy and faithlessness WHO.
"This reminds me that it has been reported
here, on very excellent authority, that several
government officials, in Ohio, who hold their an
pointments at the pleasure of the present Presi-
dent, have recently been so reckless of the pecu-
liar delicacy of their positions as to interpose
their authority in order to prevent the political
friends Of Mr.. Tyler from expressing their admi-
ration of his course in relation to his VETO of the
Fiscal Agent. do not wish to be understood as
speaking by authority---but one thing is certain.
"Mr Tyler considers his political opinions of
sufficient importance to warrant him in takino
every proper precaution to have them safely car.
ried out. He will, therefore, neither bestow bis
patronage upon, nor suffer it to abide with, any
Individual who shall feel himself at liberty to en-
ploy the powers, conferred by that patronage, in
opposing the views and principles of the Admin
istration!" Let this be remembered, and let it
be distinctly understood, that Mr.. Tyler is as te-
nacIous OF his rights, as President, as he is
chary OF his honor as a man."
