wages of the mechanic be increased, and the
master workman and journeyman be equally

To use the words of "A Carolina Wing"
"a fair race between john G. Calhoun and
Henry Clay would have been noble strug-
l.-the two loftiest in the pitch of fight of
all our siatesmen-but the country has been
robbed of that gallant conflict by undue ma
ncureriug." And we now cEndidly ask eve

Mr.. CLAT.-Gen. Duff Green says: st
is assumed by the partsans of Mr.. Van Buren,
that he will be nominated by the Baltimore
Convention. If so no sane person can doubt
the election of Mr.. Clay, and he will be cleo
ted because il is impossible TO rally the Dem

whose nomination will have been produced
by combination of political managers, orga-
