Mr. Editor: After repeated and very urgent soil
citations the p,rt of portion of the friends o'
Mr.. JOHN G. BOWMAN, to suffer his name 10
be canvasscd by the people at our nc; c!2c;on' as
candidate to represent in Congress, his consent
has at length been obtained At aaprcvious nomi-
nation Of Mr.. BowMAN, by very large, resPecta
ble g. influential portion of his fellow citizens' whic
he promptly declined, something was sad IN rc'a'io'
to the revolutionary descent Of other aspahs 10 'e
same dgnilied station. Mr.. BIS friends m'ght ha'c
fortified his claims, even on this ground, mdcpcn,
IDENTIFY of his personal merits, which nothing short OF
ignorance or prejudice can deny-tlicy might have
illustrated his claims BY reference to- his Patrotic
efforts tv serve his country in the Florida campaign,
and to his revolutionary ancestry. Such mode
however, Of presenting him before free people, so
enlightened as those 4of South Carolina, and so re-
gardless of mere advcnttous distinctions, that gen.
tleman promptly and Indignantly repudatcd-and
would not, for moment, countenancc the suggcs-
,on that he should be represented as deriving or as
wishing to derive, consequence from circumstance
which he regarded As purely accidental, and for
Which he could claim no merit.
@Mr. DowMAs's friends, influenced by these views
and feelings So just in t,m mseives so dlS'n'ercStcd'
and so honorable to himself declined any response
to the communication in which TINS matter was ad
vcrteeds to. We would however, take occasion, in
traastu TO remark, that besides his immediate rcvo
lutionary ancestry, and patriotism which none VIII
dare deny, that gentleman derives his descent from
somo Of the purest noes, and most pariotic spirits
that adorn the pages Of both Gallo and Anglosaxon
history. But VIC would, in sasJsa COVE nmcnt as
ours, rcpndratc the very idea ofsacclans and spurn
such principles from our minds belic ing them 10 DC
dcroga.oy to the character Of free and Independent
people, We would, therefore, propose Mr. Bowman
for moro elevated reasons, viz: those of his c'vn
merits and quali6c Cations; believing as we do, thai
these arc the mostsubsantial proofs of eligibility
and sufficient TO command respect from his opponents

MR. CLAY AND THE TARIFF.

The Harrisburg Telegraph, in commenting
onsome remarks by the Boston Courier, makes
the following assertion: he.
"Mr. Clay has abandoned the protective
ground, and advocates only the incidental pro
lection arising from tariff of revenue"
This is not correct. Mr.. Clay has not aban-
doned protective tariff The fatherofthe Ameri-
can systemwill protect his progeny with paterral
affection, Mr.. Clay never has, and never will
abandon protection of home industry, while
home industry needs protection, Mr. Clay
might consent that the revenue should be only
sufficient for the wants of the Government, but
he never would willingly consent to- that, unless
the wants Of the pyernment, (including its

HANOVER ELECTION.

MIR Editor-As you are, agreeab.y to your own
confession, in the dark upon the Hanover election.
and likely TO remain so till JuxE, will. with your
permission, try to enlighten you upon the subject
1t is now, believe, conceded on all hands that the
Locos have carried the day by majority of Is;
and, lest this may be claimed as a Tyler Uieio,U |
propose TO state, briefly, the cause Of the Wing
defeat IN this county. have heard of bu, one
solitary change from the Wing to the Loco Foco
ranks since the last election, and that was Tyler
man. the only one IN the county, to my knowledge;
whereas, know, certainly, Of six rice rersa, in this
precinct, since said election: consequently, reasoning
pari P1ssu, the election, IN this county, cannot be
claimed as Tyler victory! Neither can the loss
Of the county to the Wings be attributed to their
supineness, for they turned out almost to a man,
and fought mnnfu'ly for their cause; nor, indeed.
can be attributed to the unpopuIarty OF the Wing
candidate, for there Is no man that stands higher
and deservedy, too than Captain Basse,t does
Bot tie cause of the Wing defeat is that the Locos
made between AZ and 30 new votes since the last
/ election, whereas, the Whigs DID not make more
than fifteen, ~ indeed, they I'D as many; moreover
the Loco FocO candidate came out early IN the can

heard Loco say, since tue election, that if his
candidate had not been M favor Of receiving the

none other. The changes that have taken place
are Of recent date; and the good work will, no
doubt, progress have no fears Of carrying the
