Sayorte hotels, and opposite the State House. ever
one said il could not succeed and yet while iii;
other hotels have done well, the American, ksp'
by Dir. Charter, from lis admirable management,
superior cooking, extraordinary cleanliness ana
excellent table, has been SO full from the day II

in business
From all parts CT the State the prospect is ncs
cheering for MIR. Clay. Our friends JOSEPH X. Is
eERsoLL, f. Joy MORRIS, JOSIAH RANDALL, Wal
TER FORWARD, Il. Il. MckENNAN, A. STEWART.
JOHN SWIFT, GEo. w. JONES, J. PRICE WETHE"-
ELL, CHARLES GIBBONS, have visited every sectlcn
of the State and addressed the people on the nature
and true issue of the coming contest; and in various
instances many Loco-Focos attended their meetings
and gave in their adhesion TO Wing principles.
At Newtown, Yardleyyile, The Black Horse
Chester, Easton, Morristown, Lancaster, PotsviIie
and indeed all the State the people came IN ihon-
sands to hear the Wing speakers; frequently there
would be from 500 TO 1000 persons in carriages and
on horses and at Towanda there were l,lOO cur
risges some with g. 10 and II horses, and none wi,h
less than two-bcside about 1000 people on horse
back In short, you have no ides of the enthusiasm
for Clay that exists every where; aud even suppos-
ing it probable that NIar!ile may be defeated, there
is no doubt whatever but that Mr. Clay will get id'
Electoral vote oiPennsylvana. There is TO be great
Mass Meeting at Port-Penn tomorrow, and one AT
Lancaster next week, where JOHN NJ. CLAfToS
and REvERpY JOHNSON will speak.
