NEW YORK SATURDAY MORNING, AUGUST TO- 1874.

President there appears to be lack of charges of
vice, immortality, &c against him. Perhaps this
may arise from that office not requiring such quail
fications. The following choice morcea~ from the
Kentucky Yeomam will evnce the spirit which this
gentleman's nomination is accounted for, and give
a sample Of the attacks made.
"The wings have made master stroke OF policy
in running Mr. Frrllnghuysen on the ticket with
Mr. Clay. 1t is a most comprehensive ticket; II
embraces the two grand divisions OF the human
family; il makes sure OF both Christian and
heather, both saint and sinner 1t Is expected, OF
course, that all the ungodly and reprob.ue, The
spor'smen, the daelllsts the spec1lators, ne gan
elect, the sanctltied, the bigos, and fanatics the
phanthropiss, the puritans. the sectarians, and all
the evange cal will be tor FrelIngbuysen, and will
swallow Clay along with him. All what mil
lena spectacle will be presented al The next cleo
ton saint and sinner, swlndler and elder, duellis
and quaker will go arm and arm TO the ballot box
the lion and lamb will lie down together; literally
there will be "union OF the puritan and thu black
leg"

(says Mr.. McDuifie Of South Carolina,) and am
willing to stake my humble stock of reputation
upos the truth OF the assertion, that the circum-
STANCES OF the extraordinary coalition between

abandonment OF political principle on the part of
Mr. Clay, and OF corrupt political bargain be-

Inasmuch, as Mr.. Clay is a great brag player or
gambler she editor appears to think his supporters
should do all the bregsing. The whig bnies have
"drawn in their horns" lately but few weeks
ago they offered to bet two to one on Clay, but
now no such proposals are made-the braggers
are evidently rightened.-Portland Democrat,

A DRAWN DEMONSTRATION, who represents
Cayuga and Seneca counties in Congress, made a
speech few days since, in which he said Clay
must be despot, because his name commences
with c. as did CGsar's, Caligula's and Crom-
wells. The Auburn Journal says that, adopting
this rule OF judgment OF man . character, Mr..
Rathbun must be terrible hard cases. for his name
begins with X. as do the words Rogue, Robber,
Rascal, Ragamufiin, &c.-Aibanian, June 26.
Standard says, (May 80, ls44,) at is stated that
Mr.. Frelinghuysen (the wing candidate for Vice
Presidency has been, and perhaps now is, president
OF Bible Society, and if so, suggest that he read
the first psalm, and especially the first verse
Blessed is the man that walketh not in the coun-
sci of the ungodly, nor standeih in the way Of sim
nera, nor stitch in the seat Of the scorntulm
The leaders who nominated him, Con the ticket
with Clay) care little for Mr.. Frelinghuysen, and
less for righteousness; they only borrowed his re-
gious fame for Henry Clay's benefit.
