MR.. CLAY IN PENNSYLVANIA.


The letter ofour correspondent 10 yes
terdsy's American spoke Of the enshusi.
ssm and unanimity offeeling which char.
acterised the proceedings Of the Wing
State Convention in Harrisburg. We no
lice the same indications Of hearty zeal
in the resolutions Of various county meet
Ings held in Pennsylvania for the appoint.
ment of delegates to the Convention. -
From Lancaster enc hundred and fifty
delegates were appointed; and in speak
ing Of the meeting the Examiner says
that the large rooms we're crowded, and
that the enthusiasm and good feeling
which prevailed On the occasion, recalled
to mind the spirit-strr;ng scenes of 1910.
The steady Wings Of Lancaster spoke
their sentiments III such language as this !:
Resolved, That IN Henry Clay we re-.
cognize Statesman not Of the West, nor
of the North or Souih--bul emphaticaliy
OF the whole Union.
That ia the warm and zealous support
he gave TO Gen. Harrison, he furnished
additional evidence Of his self-sacrificing
disposition, and proved conclusivcly what
his whole life exhibiis-that love Of coun-
try, and not office, was his sole and only
aim:
That while Virginia Graded him, and
Kentucky adopted him, the people IN their
power and majesty, throughout this wide
ly extended Union, have called him their
son and fayorte, and are nov about TO
reward his services with the highest office
in their gift.
10 the counties Of York, Chester Mont
geometry, Bucks, Franklin, Washington,
Centre, and Bradford-we name those
only whose proceedings we observe in
single news paper,-the utmost unanmi.
ty marked the action Of the primary
meetings. There is also manifest a
strong feeling of confidence in the success
of the Wing candidate in 1874, based up
on the conviction that Henry Clay is the
first and only choice ofthe great Wing
party, and that nothing but thorough
organization OF his friends throughout the
country is necessary to secure his trum.
plant election. With this firm persua.
sion, however, there is not wanting the
evidence of that megnanimity which has
already characterized the great body Of
the Wings. The Wings OF Bradford
county, declaring their belief that Mr..
Clay is the only man calculated to unite
the strength oflhe whole party, say, new.
eriheIess. that if any other man shall re.
ceive the fair nomination ola National
Convention they pledge themselves to a.
bide the decision.
There will be abundant time before the
meeting Of the National Convention, on
the 3rd of May, 1914, for firm organi-
cation Of the Wings throughout the Union
for a clear understanding Of their def.
mite and determined purnoses-and for
combination Of those elements Of enthusi-
asm which are TO burst over the land in
one diffusion Of powerful, energetic splr.
II, resolved on decisive effnrt to restore
once more the blessings OF good govern.
ment to the country, There need be no
preliminary wasting OF strength or zeal.
The Wings can wait their time quietly,
and in such patience as is compatible with
the overwhelming conciousness Of exis.
ting evils brought on us by mIsrue.

A HARD MONEY STATE.

The Locoloco papers are pointing
with exultatons, to the specie currency
which now almost exclusively prevails al
New Orleans. One of them states that
"a gentleman of this vicinity, who sold
two fat boat loads Of -four there, could
scarcely get his pay in anything bu!
SPECIE" But ii seems he dld not choose
TO receive the hard mouey, and why q
Because the price Of Flour tor silver was
so low, that he would not have been re
munerated for the labor and expenses %.
taking it to market. He preferred to
trade for groceries, at a lew cents more
per barrel than he could have got for bis
-four in specie. 1t is true they have
specie times in New Orleans, and specie
prices prevail. but who is benefited by
Them ?-Scioto Gazette.
Speaking Of the late Message Of Gov.
Mouton--a Locoloco-lhe Louisville Jour.
nal says;
"Gov. Mou,on in his inaugural address,
draws gloomy picture Of the financial
condition of Louisiana. He says that
there is now due by the State to her banks
in round numbers 81, 200, 900, that there
is due for salaries, interest, and other or
binary expenses, about $780, 900; that
there are State bonds, for the payment OF
which the State has no guarantee, to the
amount of 81 ,272, 900, on most Of which
bonds interest is due and unpaid; that
there are State bonds TO large amount,
for which the State has the guarantee Of
the stockholders Of the Citizens Bank
and Consolidated Association Of Planners,
now in liquidation, on which the interest
will probably not be paid /; but it has for
several years exceeded its income by
more than $500, 900; tina, there is roth
ing in her exhausted treasury that the
State can no longer borrow dollar from
her own banks, and that the people are
taxed as heavily as they can bear"

COUNTERFEIT DoLLARs.-Some OF the
counterfeit coin which has been INTRODUCED

says:
ave were yesterday shown counter

rahly executed as to be detected only up

two particulars in which the counterfeit
differs from the genuine dollar, viz: the
snake in the eagles mouth ia The counter.
felt touches the A in the word republSca,

and the branch running before that word
is split at the termination, so that part
OF it goes under the K, whereas IN the

time the verdigrs rs plainly visible. Our
citizens should keep a good look out for
these counterfeits, us it is probable that
many Of them are in circulation"
CoUNTERFEIr MoNEY.--A large guam,
tity of spurious coin, consisting principal
lv OF eagles, halt eagles, half dollars, and
Mexican dollars, has lately been put in
circulation in Canada, and the Northern
parts OF the State OF N. York. The iml-
,aton is SO perfect, and the tone of ring
of the metal 81 much like that OF the genu-
inc COINS, that the most experienced per-
sons-bank officers ard others--have
been deceived One ofthe Canada banks
received $4,000 before the imposition was
detected.
