plurality over the federalists Of more than TEN
THOUSAND, and the federal loss in Maine, since the
presidential election of 1S4O, will not be less than
5000 votes

Clays last Card. The whig papers are pub
fishing a recent letter from Mr. Clay to some of
his Missouri friends which is perfectly character
istic ofthe man. He says the democratic party is
divided, weak, contemplate and miserable con-
cern, and that the whig party is united, virtuous,
and sure to triumph; 6ut he exhorts the wings to
60 into the contest as if they had Napoleon or a
Wellington to contend GgGinss, instsdd of a Col
Polk!
Clay is used to the game Of Drag, and he has
played it charmingly in this last move. But if
he don't get IOosd in Tennessee, and used up in
the Union, we shall be mistaken. The late elec4
tons, with loss of t,Dsnty thousand in Kentucky

We now learn, upon the authority Of Captain
Elliott himself that England had advised Mexi-

dependence of Texas, but to keep up an armistiee
with her as long as possible; and in case sue
cessful attempt al annexation between the United
States and Texas took place, then to go to aoGr,
and EnglGnd aoOuld back her in the contest
Thiscon6rms US in the opinion we have long en-
tertained that our independence will never be ac-
knowledged by Mexico, while there is prospect
of annexation. England will resist this measure
as long as 1t can be resisted by diplomacy. And
