" Sacrifice himsef-pish that Is all SON We
know that Mr.. Clay look ground against the treaty
because John q. Adams and The abvhlionisis had Ia
ken gound againsl it and because be believed IL was
essary for him TO do TO secure the abolition vote
hus reach the Presidency. We know that Mr..
Borrow's object was 10 put Mr. Clay into the Presi-
dency that Mr. Clay might have the power 10 re-
ward add pension hs paTtisans; and although We
EDglsbmen love the treason, we dtsplse ihe traitors
We know that IL was the duty Of the SensIe 10 vote
favor of the treaty and the fact hat they rejected
such treaty, should be warning TO all other ma
tons TO bdoare u The fate Of .fneriea her institu-
ions are now like rope OF sand 'She Is powefless
our her external acts and policy, she cannot
pride herself in her conduct tow ards other nations by
any considered II her highest interests" her
national calling u her national duty" She is tied
down by her miserable scramble for place aud plum
der, and such is the thirst for olcesuch the venali-
" and corruption that Southern Senators have united
with The Abolitionsts IN REJECTING The annexation oil
Texas, when those Abotonists had openly declar-
ed that the motive Of their opposition was hostility
to the South and Southern ms itutions.n
Well may the Times exclaim "what position can
be more humiliang TO grea, and powerful nation I"
Well may the Times the people of England
against a Government faithless and false TO Them
selves Well may the Times despise and spurn those
whose conduct justifes the character which its
respondent gives us
Is il true that our Government is rope Of sand ?
Is it true that we are powerless our external
acts and policy Is it true that we cannot pride
selves on our conduct towards other nations Is it
true that Congress has consd, ration for high
est interest or national duty Such is the opinion Of
the Times, predicated on the declaration that the
People will sustain the Senators, who voted against
the treaty, by eecting Mr. Clay
1t follows that if we elect Mr.. Clay we give tr
umph TO those who he Id our character and Govern
ment in contempt We will invite insult and az,
erosion by confirming the opinion expressed by Sir
Robert Peel in the House Of Commons, that the con-
hict between the North and The South must soon ter
inmate in the emancipation of our slaves-and thus
stimulate England to persevere in her system of in
tablish her power here it is already established in
Spain, Portugal, and NJ. xico
We call upon the patriotic portion Of the Wing
party TO pause and reflect well on these facts We
cannot safely close eyes TO the effect which the
election of Mr. Clay will have on public opinion
and the election of Mr.. Clay will strengthen the Br
fish party here and in foreign countries. Mr.. Polk
is the American cand date, and his ell ctiop will
prove that the Government of this country is under
American influence Choose ye, on which side
you will rally. Are pou for England and the black
race if so, vote for Clay, because he is their cand
date Are you for the United States and the white
race if So vote for Polk, because he is their can
didale.
