The Hon. HENRY Clay left this city on Mon
cay in the railroad cars going North intending 10
60 as lar as the Relay7house, (nine miles on this
side OF Baiimore,) to stay there last night. and to
proceed this morning in the train passing from Bal
timore Westward, directly on, without any stop
page, to Ashland, his residence near Lexington.
Mr.. CLAY's sojourn here has been altogether
quiet and transformations, and he has thereby had
time TO recruit from the fatigues of travel and Of
public receptions between New Orleans and this
place. His departure has been purposely so pri-
waite and unheralded, that it is presumed he will
reach home, as he arrived in this city, privately,
and attended only by his son, who travels with him
Mr.. CLAY arrived al Cumberland, Maryland, on
his way homeward, on Tuesday evening, and put
up at Barnum,'s Hotel, where nunSrr Of citizens
were waiting in anticipation Of his arrival. Many
hundreds called to see him during the night, who
were received in the most cordial and friendly
manner.
Mr.. EWING, Of Ohio, being in company with Mr..
Clay, upon the call OF the crowd, delivered short
speech from the door of the Hotel. He was most
enthusiastically cheered and when he concluded,
.the crowd retired all evidently highly gratifed with
t'sC "su""Sa ~ "HSh "Cy WCiC IcCciNtu dnu en-
tertained.
On Wednesday morning Mr.. CLAY resumed his
journey.
We have great pleasure in announcing the re-
election of the Hon. JABEz w. HUNTINGTON to be
a Senator of the United States from the state of
Connecticut for six years from the end OF his pre-
sent term Of service (which expires on the Sd of
March next.)
Mr.. HUNTINGTON received the unanimous vote of
the Wings in both branches Of the Legislature, his
aggregate majority being twenty-five votes.
