ANNE ARJNDEL.- The Wings Of this
county held convention at the junction
Of Annapolis and Washington Raj Road,
on Saturday last. The following gentle
men were nominated as candidates for the
legislature: John Johnson, Nicholas B.
" or,hington.Reuben Warield and Robert
Garner, Esqrs, and DR.. Stevens Ganbril.
Repudiation.-The Convention thus
noticed the doctrine of Reputation.
Resolved, That this convention, rem.
cinbering that it is justice tina, establishes
a nation, and echoIng the opinion of their
constituency, utterly and emphaticaly
discountenances, in all its aspects, the
novel, startling and dangerous doctrine Of
reputation of state obligations, as sub
versive Of public honor, destructive of the
morals Of the community and its mem
bers, and hostile to the principles OF COM
inQn honesty.

THE CLAY TREE.--We see paragraph
going the rounds of the Locofoco papers. stating
that the Magnolia is entirely useless tree, and
in conformity with that idea, making disparag-
ing remarks in relation to Mr.. Clay. This is
like most other locofoco assertions; a compound
of ignorance, malice and falsehood. Had the
wiseacre who wrote tho paragraph alluded to,
consulted pharmacopeia, he would have found
that the Magnolia, is a gently slimulant aro-
matte tonic and diaphoretic, useful in chronic
rheumatism and capable, if freely given, of ar
resting the pqroxyams Of intermittent fever
1t has been used advantageously in these COM
plants, snd in remittsnts especially ola typhoid
character"
That he work of depletion has been going on
in this country till it is reduced to a typhoid
state-till the pockets Of the farmer and mer-
chant are almost altogether exhausted till the
energies of the ma nufact ure and artizan are al
most utterly pr ostratod, is undeniable. A slim
ulant--a tonic, is therefore nee essary TO revive
the "bonc and sinew" of the land; to bring the
muscle of the country back to Is wonted strength
and beauty, and proportion.
The nation has been afflicted dozen years.
hence The dis ease is chronic one, and although
occas onal renssions have taken place, they
have passed away, and let it sink back into a
typhoid state. The Magnolia Cares these dis
eases in the human system. fit emblem them is
it of the man who is to rem edy these evils
who is to cure these maadies in the body poll
tic.
The variety .Macrnphylla which was pre- scented
to Mr.. Clay by MIR. Hatch, is the noblest tree III
the American Forest--a fit en- blem of the man
who stands, noblest among American states
msn. Like YOURSELF" said the donor to Mr..
Clay, sit is purely american; and even in Amer
ican soq it has no prototype. The
purity OF its spo,less bloom is an emblem of
your reputation, and its unri vailed foliage but
a type Of YOUR well earned honors."
