HON JOHN NJ. CLAYTON

We this day publish letter from Mr.
Clayton (Which should have been publish
ed in our last, but it did not come to hand
in tme) declining to be consder,d can
didate for the Vice Presidency, at the
Wing National Convention to assemble
at Baltimore in May next. The pure and
ardent patriotism disinttrcsted love of coun-
try and devotion to Wing principles and
TO the Wing cause breathing in every line,
places its author in the most elevated po-
sition before the country. When we see
men such as MIR Clayton is acknowledged
to be, by all parties, eminent for his ability,
public and private virtue, and political sa-
gacIty, and experience, declining offices
she most elevated and honorable, the pa
triotlc heart cannot but eNclaim such
| men alone are destined to save the Repub
lie in the hour Of danger and distress.
| Such men alone can conduct the country
to greatness glory and rcnown-although
Mr. Clayton refuses in the remotest de-
gree to disturb the harmony of the con-
ventlon by the use of his name, we
would not be surprised should he be IL
unanimously selected by that body for the
second office i'll the gift of frcemen: in
that event he could not decline. Having
been the first to run up the flag of liberty
and equality with CLAYTON and the ma
lions benetactor CLAY, and we shall re
greet TO supply the place Of ither with an
other name, though we shall support
Wing principles whoe,e the men may
be that are selected carry thm' out being
convinced that the convention will do no.

1t becomes my duty to speak openly and

to do, that ! have not been and am not

tracing the Convention by multiplicity OF
