POETRY
From the Quincy Patriot.
Clay Melody,

From the Quincy Patriot.
Clay Melody,
Beneath scorching sun,
A human being wrought,
To whom the evening brought
No hope that his work was done
Covered with dust and sweat,
And cheeks with hot tears wet,
He toled the livelong day.
No rest the Sabbath gave
For oh! he was slave
Huzza for Henry Clay!
He leaned upon his spade
1t was at noontide hour,
When the sun with fiercest power,
Its hottest beams displayed;
In tears he sought relief
From agony and grief
His thoughts were far away,
For his wife and child were sold,
That the gambler might have gold
Huzza for Henry Clay
A dream of ii eedom he
For one short moment caught,
And the poor slave spakc his thought
"Oh! that | might be freen'
His master drawing near,
Glanced that short prayer to hear,
And borne by wrath away,
He made one desperate bound,
And felIed him to the ground
Huzza for Henry Clay
The thong was in his hand
A thong of knotted hide,
Hardened with blood beside,
And braided as band:
Blow after blow he gave,
To that unhappy slave
As if in boyish play,
He dashed him till the gore
His quivering limbs ran DER
Huzza for Henry Clay!
Each stripe curled up the flesh,
And it crawled upon his benes-
Then fainter grew his groans;
But as the blood runs fresh,
Twas lash, and lash, and lash
Oh God that fearful cash!
Thy hand in mercy stay
All! with that knotted hide,
He dashed him till he died
Huzza for Henry Clay

Withdrawal OF Tyler.

To Tie Editor OF The Tribune:
learn from source entitled TO credit that on
the interesting occasion of Tyler's return with
his young bride among his old friends and neigh
bors in Virginia, they generally omitted 10 call
upon him. This caused the Captain much vexa
ton, and ne demanded of one who knew, why ii
was that he was thus treated, affecting of course
entire innocence of all knowledge OF any reasona.
bic cause. He got an honest answer, such an one
as he ought 10 have had long ago. 1t was this
"The reason, sir, is that we do not approve Of
the course you are pursuing. We think you are
disgraclng yourself and the country" But"
said Tyler, "let them come and see me. Let me
hear that from their own mouths" A number
accordingly waited on him, and dealt so plainly
and effectively with him that he came to an i'm
me diate resolution to withdraw from the Presi
dental canvass. This impdrtant determination
will probably be announced in the Madisonian
without much delay. 5MICUS.

To the Editor Of tie Tribune
At the raising of Dr. Thomas Willislus's house
in this village on the 3lst inst. after the body OF
the building was raised, it was proposed that
vote be taken OF the Presidential question. There
were tifty.four voters present. forty voted for
Henry Clay, ono for Polk, one for Birney, and
twelve voted not at all After the result was de-
clared, and the neighbors had partaken OF some
suitable refreshments prepared by the Doctors $
fair daughters, and all had moistened their clay
by plentiful draught Of good, cold water, a song
was proposed. Accordingly leading LocoFoco
of this vicinity took the lead in singing and when
he came 10 the words
Get out of the way. you're ail unlucky-
Cieur the track for Old kentucky.'
he seemed to sing from the very heart; it certain
ly was with hearty good will. At the conclu-
sion of The song (it being about sunset the neigh
bors parted as they usually do, with mutual kind
ever to do all that men should 90 to promote
Henry Clay to the Presidency.
And let me add that while the Wings are IN
good spirits conscious that they are aborng in a
good cause, the Locos are dshcartened cold and
Indifferent Every day complaining that they
have been cheated out of their candidate, and
compelled to take man whose declared opinions
upon great and important questions are dlametri-
cally opposed to theirs. That he is in favor of
the immediate Annexation of Texas to the United
States opposed TO the present Tariff, and IN
clining towards Free Trade. all ofwhich is at var
once with their notions of Democracy or good
public policy. Ard have no hcsitancy in say
ing that do not believe lin this vicinity one ont
Of iour of the rank and file will vote for James X.
Polk at the next November election or that there
will be one Whig who will not deposit his vote IN
the ballot box for Henry Clay. Look out for
greater Wing victory than in lS4O. Very re-
speclfully your obedient servant.

We have published t,,o recent extraordinary
letter of Hon. Isaac E. HOLMES, expressing his
apprehensions that Clay would be elected, and
calling on the South to prepare to nullify the
Tariff again. Mr.. Holmes has been courteously
called on by some of his constituents to explain
that letter. The requisi,ion closes with the fol-
lowing questions
l. Are you in favor of the election of Mr.. Polk
and Mr.. Dallas the Democratic Candidates for
the Presidency and Vice Presidency OF the United
States and are you, or not, of the opinion that
the votes of South Carolina, should be given in
good faith for them7
g. Whatever may be your opinion of Mr..
Folks ability, in the event of his election, to ef
feet repeal of the tariff of 1S42, and TO break
down the protective SYSTEM, hare you any doubt
of the sincerity of his opposition to The entire sys
TEN Of protection, and that the influence of his
high Office will be in good faith exerted TO subreft
it?

Erie Railroad.

The Westfeld Messenger (Chautauque Coz
proposes that the Erie Railroad be built On plan
of Associated Labor, being divided off into small
sections, the construction of each valued at so
much, and then the People contribute their work
ind timber and prepare the Road for the Rails.
For instance, mile section is estimated at so
many dollars, and then set up at auction ; he who
will do it for the least sum to take it, and receive
stock therefor. Rails to be obtained in like man.
ner. Money to be supplied to hire engineers, &c.
by subscriptions along the line.
We have no; a doubt that, if all who are inter
es!ed in the construction Of this work would Just;
take hold in this way, they might build it in two
years and never feel the cost. But they wont Go
it. The hardest sections are those where there are
the fewest people; and the man whose property
would be doubled in value by the construction OF
this Road is smitten with amazement and remorse
at his own generosity if he subscrbes ten per cent
of his means TO build this great work. Trinity
Church alone would be made Half Million rich
or by it, and yet her Vestry would not subscribe
fifth part OF the amount 10 the stock, though she
would greatly enhance the value of her property
and make fair investment beside. So the world
goes, and so the Erie Railroad don't go.

This result argues Wing victory in the State
BY majority of 4 to 5000. A great effort has
been made to shake the West by sectional appeals
for support to Col. Hoke as Western man,
champion Of Western interests, &C. but we DO
not believe it has availed any thing. Graham
aud Hoke are both able men and good speakers
though Hoke is of more popular manners and the
better electoneerer.
We expected, and should have had, letters yes
terday from several Counties, but were dlsap-
pointed. The Richmond papers Of Saturday
broughanothing, nor did the Raleigh Register o.
Friday morning, which we hoped to have returns
in from Wake County at least. 1t was put to
press before the Polls closed, but speakes hope
fully Of the result.
Later.
Since the above was written, we have received
further returns, through the kindness of ger

They are mainly from McKay's District, which
was always the strongest Loco-Foco section Of
the State Col. Hoke canvaesed il thoroughly,
and has drawn out strong vote, while Mr. Gra-
ham was confined to his bed by sickness and did
not visit that section at all. There is nothing 10
