ASHLAND, August !, 1914,

Gcntlemen | duly received your letter
of the 18th ultimo, on the subject of duel
ling, aud appreciate fully the friendly, pi-
Gus and patriotic motives which prompted
you to address me. Pernicous as the prac-
tice undoubtedly is, hope you will excuse
me when say that there are other ques-
tions, in our public affairs, Of much higher
and Of more general Importance. The
victims, Or votaries, Of that practice are
but few in number, and bear no compari-
son with the immense number of sufferers
from the rejection Of wise measures Of
National policy, or the adoption Of those Of
an opposite character.
expressed in strong terms Of condem-
nation, my opinion against dueIling in a
letter which addressed tony constituents,
in March, 1924, which is to be1ound in the
published collection ofmy speeches. Again,
within few years past, | gave evidence
Of my strong dsapprotation Of it by vo-
ting, in the Senate of the United States,
Tor the bill for suppressng duelling in the
District Of Columbia
With these proofs Of my sentiments, |
think, gentlemen, you ought to be satisfied,
But you ask me whether, if | were chal-
lenged to fight duel, would reject the
invitation! Considering my age, which is
now past 67, | feel that [ should expose
myself to ridicule if | were to proclaim
whether would orwould not fight duel,
Itis certainly one OF the most unlikely
events that can possibly be imagined, and
I cannot conceive q case in t0hich / shoUld
be proc0ked to go 10 The feid Of cOmbai.-
But, as cannot iorsee all the contingent
cies which may possibly arise, in the short
remnant of my life, and for the reason
which ] have already stated, of avoiding
any exposure Of myself TO ridiculc, can
not reconcile it to my sense Of proprlety tC
make q declaration oneway or the other.
You have, gentlemen, done me some
bat not full justice, in respect to theailail
of the lamented Cilley. When | first OBJ
tanned any knowledge OF his difficulty with
, Mr. Graves, did not think that there wa'
the smallest occasion for u combat between
them. believed, from the first, that thu
matter would be ancaby accommodated
| to that end all my exertions were directed
! did not know that twas not accommoda
teduntil the day when, and after the par
ties went out to fight. On thut day lwo
confined to my room, by illness, and it wa
olcgether accidental that obtained inior
nation as to the plan, or the hour of thei
meeting Contrary to the impression
which you entertain, did advise the EN-
| poymentof the police to arrest the partic
and to prevent the duel. The constabe
accordingly went out in search Of them
I, but like myself, being gnoran! Of the tim
u andpaco Of their meeting, they mistool
e 'he route, and failed in the accomplish
3, ment OF the object. If you would read at
!. tentvely the whole Of my correspondence
= with Mr. Wise, to which you have refer
e red, you will find that it slstains the pre
n cedlng statement

ELECTIONS.

The election .or Governor, Legislature,
&c., came off in the "Green Mountah
State" on the Sd inst. Wittiam Slade is the
Wing candidate for Governor. We have
the returns from some five or six towns,
they shew an increase in favor of he
Wing candidates over the Polk and Bir-
ney men at the last years election, We
will next week be able to give the returns
in full We think Termom has given Il
quietuS to Polk and Texas that will do them
the present year.
MAINE.-The election for. Governor,
Congress, and the Legislature, in Maine,
took place on the 9th. We Of course have
no oreturns. In our next we may be ablet to
conjecture the result. 1t is a very doubt
ful matter which party will succeed. But
let the result be what it may, we will give
the returns as they come in, and not con-
ceal the result as our opponents do that Of
the Louisiana election.

THE COURSE OF OUR OPPONENTS.
The present contest now going on be-
tween Henry Clay and James X. Polk for
the Presidency, is well calculated to strike
the most casual observer with astonish-
ment. On the one hand Mr.. Clay is long
known to the country, has stood by her
both in peace and in war, been in both
branches of the National Legislature, been
Secretary of State, and Minister Plenipo-
tentiary to foreign Court In short, the
name of Henry Clay is known, not only
by the citizens of our own country, but in
every nation under heaven with whom we
have any commercial relations. The inn
press of his mighty genius is stamped on
our whole system of policy both foreign
and inland. On the other hand Mr.. Polk
Is only a third or fourth rate man of his
own party. We venture the assertion that
when his nomination was forced on the
party, and his name heralded forth as a
candidate for the Presidency, that not one
man in ten of his own party knew there
was such a man on earth With such
fearful odds in favor OF the Wing candi
date, one might readily suppose that the
contest would be feeble on part Of Mr.
Polk, because no one dare pretend that he
is at all qualified to manage our foreign re-
lations. Neither does he know any thing
about the internal policy of our country
The fact of his being nominated over the
heads Of Buchanan, Cass, Johnson, Stew
ard, and all the other aspirants, shows
conclusiveiy that the great Magnus Apollo
of slavery, J. c. Calhoun, held the secret
sApriug that worked the wires, The mex
thing to attract public attention is the prn-
eipleg avowed and measures proposed, by
the two contending parties and what or,
theyl TheWhgs avow that the Execn
tive power should be curtailed; thot u
laying an impost duty on foreign goods
raise revenue to support the Government
that Discrimination should be made for III
protection OF American labor and America
capital, The measures they propose
carry out these two principles aro--ls
An abridgement of the Veto power Of Il
President. Cd. To let the present lui
,salone. On these two points the parLle9N
,directlyat issue. Mr.. Polk is oPposedio h

and advocates its repeal Mr.. Clay thinI
it has worked.aceH and is utterly opposed

have the power, and If necessary ought
use it, to give the country a sound un
form currency. Mr.. Polk and his lrient
deny both the power and eApediency

DUEILTNG.

Werefer urreader5 to the outside of our
paper for an article published from that
most excellent Journal, the National IateI-
Hgencer. We also refer them to Mr., Claws
own recent letter on the same subject. We
suppose the Locofoco papers have, to some
extent, effected their purpose by getting
us to notice their ISLANDERS Weknow full
well that they are hypocrilical in their over
anxious zeal to protect the public morals
These base impostors who have themselves
voted for General Jackson, who is noto-
rious as a duelist, having killed Charles
Dickinson, in cold blood, and afterwards
prevented his friends from holding pub
lie meeting at Nashville to sympathizc
with the wife Of the murdered man, now
turn round and warn the public to beware
Of electng such monster as Mr.. Clay
When were you converted! You ough
to give time, place and circumstances. wv
should not have noticed their charges, ONLY
that some well meaning man might be Inn

aUNDER BONDS 9

On the first page Of this weeks paper
will be found the letter of Senator Phelps
of Vermont. If any thing further was ne.
cessary to brand the calumniators Of Mr.
Clay with falsehood, the statement made
by Mr.. Phelps does that thing. viii the
Crisis publish the letter Of Mr.. Phepsl-
We think not. The policy Of the Locofo.
co press, from the Globe down, is to uttel
the lies, give them currency, and then re,
fuse to publish the refutation. The Crisis
has published the charge and Of course
will stick to the lie, because it may aid
Polkism, Knowing Polk to be totally in
competent for the duties Of the office OF
President, and also, being fully advised
that Henry Clay has talents suited to any
emergency, and that, from his long public
services, the country look upon him as the
master spirit of the age. That to compare
Polk to him in an intellectual point ofview
would be ike setting up farthing candle
against the splendid glare occasioned by
the burst Of a volcano. Hence the reason
for the abuse Of Mr.. Clay. They cannot
bring their candidate who is, comparative
Iy speaking, as obscure as the owl Of Ere
bus, on the same level with Clay, and
the necessity of pulling down Clay to his
level. But lie on, oipers, ye guaw q Gie.
