From the Columbia Observer.
TO ALL WHO MAY FEEL ANY IN
TEREST IN THE APPROACH
ING ELECTION.

From present appearances we are induc-
ed to believe that Henry Clay of Kentucky,
and Martin Van Buren. of New York, will
be the opposing candidates for the Presi-
dencv at the approaching election | see
it stated by the opponents ni Mr. Clay as an
objection to his election, that there was a
corrupt coalition between the said Clay and
John Quincy Adams, by which the latter
was promoted to the Presidency, and the
former to the Secretarystip of the State
Department Now, for one, if the f.iends
of Mr. Van Buren, can establish the charge.
will renounce Clay. and will, if the friends
of Van Buren, can convince me by any fair
proof, that he (Mr. Van Buren, is Demo
crat of The JeHersonian school, and not
Federalist, consolidalionist, then will
for one 90 cheerfully into his support.
These things must be done, or | neither can
support Mr. Van Buren, nor renounce Mr..
Clay. Iftnere is but one vote 10 be gained
by the proof asked, it may be thought too
small gain for SO much pains; but let me
tel you, Messrs. Locoiocos, not only my
vote depends on it, but thousands and tens
OF thousands depend on the same results.
Think not, then, that ore vote is not worthy
OF your attention, for remember that vou are

equal to two votes gained. But to the sub
jecl ofthe coalition.
1t ask for proof of the corruption. re-
ceive for answer generally. that Mr. Clay,
as Member of Congress. in 1926, voted for
Mr.. Adams for the Presidency, and that sub.
sequen.ly Mr. Adams appointed Mr. Clay
Secretary of State. If | ask again, if;hat is
all the proof, L am answered, No. one
George kremer, member of Congress
from Pennsylvania, charged Mr.. Clay, in a
letter in the newspapers. with a coalition
with Mr. Adams, which charge was made
some time before the election in the House.
Is that all No: we are told that so strong
was the presumption OF guilt, that the House
appointed committee Of investigation So

armed for the purpose, but was there pres
ent, ready in proof mail clad, with lance

turned and at whose war cry all rallied as
at the spi 1t string tones OF a bugle call He
alluded in terms Of much respect TO Mr.
Calhoun. and regretted that he was not to
be the antagonist of Mr.. Clay in the contest
that such a contest would have been an |
elevated and a stirring one, the "battle ofthe
giants the mighty mace of the lion hear |
ted Richard. and the keen tempered weap. |

terms of respect of the abilities and expert /
ence of Mr.. Van Buren, but poured IN a |
