would be by no means TO commit the

be necessary now, but to make q strong

Mr.. Clay's present position, that no one
can faiIIO see the aWkwardneSS Of pushing
hinIat the present moment. Such pro-
ceedng can do him no good and fear
would be sure TO give the State to the
LocofocOs. II is not to be disguised, that
these premSture nominations have not
helped the Wing cause, in States in which
