Kentucky.

In 1910, Kentucky was called +" the Banner
State by the wings, because she gave larger
majority to General Harrison than any other
State. Now, when her own Harry" is running
for President, the coons are very fearful of los
ing the State Many distinguished wings in that
State, who were Gen. Harrison's warmest sup
porters in 1910, are out against "the man with
the bloody hand" The Hon. Geo. f. Marshall,
man of powerful eloquence, is stumping the
State against Clay; and Ex-Governor Wickliffe
lately presided over meeting in Clayt own dis
trict, got up in favor of the immediate annexa-
ton of Texas. "Tal Bill Allen" as the coons
call our talented and eloquent young Senator,
contemplates visiting Kentucky in the course Of
the summer, and will beard the lion in his den!
Clay came into Ohio in lS42, to deal out his
heresies in the ears of the Buckeyes; but defeat
and dismay only followed his labors! IfAllen
don't storm Che coon citadel, and SET fire TO the
coonerY, we are no prophet.

From the SarannGh Republican, the leading Clay Paper
of Georgia.
Figuring uD.

We copy from the New York Evening Post,
the following statement as TO the probable result
of the coming Presidential election. The whole
number Of votes in the twenty-six States is 275
necessary 10 choice 1873. We think the Pos
is altogether too liberal towards the wings. We
believe that Gov. PoLK's chances of getting the
votes of Maryland, North Carolina, and New
Jersey, are equal to those of the man with the
bloody hand" Kentucky is doubtful State
but it is probable that Clay will get it.-But il
no event can the wings expect 10 carry more
States than are here set down to them:

Latest from Mexico.

By an arrival at New Orleans from Tampico
letters and papers of late date have been recei-
we'd, but no newspapers.
Not little excitement exists in the Northern
departments of Mexico in relation TO the an
nexation question, and all sorts of threats a.
gainst the United States are made in case the
treaty is ratified.
Revolutions, in price current phrase, are dol
in Mexico, no recent outbreaks having occur
red; but many of the wise heads think that the
political air is charged with prOnunciamentos, or
in other words, that the present calm in the AT
lantic departments portends revolutionary
storm.
There are six regiments of troops at Tampi
co, miserably clothed, and ready at any time tC
raise revolt.
A large conducta from the interior arrived a
Tampico on the 18th ult. There were SOC
mules, escorted by a strong guard of soldiers
each mule packing 4,000-making in all the
heavy sum of $2,000,000. OF this amount it il
said that $l,600,000 had been shipped by a
steamer for England, and the balance had gone
to Jamaica in the English frigate Pique.
Three or four of the Mier prisoners who had
escaped by digging under the walls of Perote,
had been seen in the interior, making the best
of their way towards Texas.
Ii is reported that Santa Anna has called |
new Congress, which was TO convene on the LIST
Strong measures were to be taken in relation tC
the Texas question, and the difficulties with tht
retail trade law it was also supposed would occu
py the attention oithe members
A French fleet was spoken, few days since
in the Gulf on its way to Vera Cruz, as wa
conjectured.
Among the passengers by the Virginia An
toinette was B. M Norman, Esq, author of Ira
vels in Yucatan. We understand that he ha
made several important discoveries in the way G
ruins, &c, in the region of the country back .
Tampico, and has brought over many choice spe
cimens of statuary, &C., many of them of exqu
site workmanship, which he is to present TO tn
New York Historical society. Mr.. N. brough
dispatches for our Government from China
which came over land from the Pacific.

To Our subseribers.

Three months expired with the 18th number,
since we became the Editor and publisher ofthe
Sentinel. A great many of our subscribers have
taken advantage of our advance terms, and have
paid us $3.50 for a years subscription. We
will here state, that we have concluded TO eX-
tend the time until the 4th of July, and all those
who will pay us $3.50, on or before that day,
will receive credit for the Sentinel one year.
Such Democrats as cannot possibly find it con
venient to attend the Celebration in Cadiz, on
the 4th, can send the amount with some neigh
Dor who will be here. After that time our terms
will be $500.
We will here take the liberty of returning our
heartfelt thanks TO our friends and patrons, fol
their liberality and kindness towards us. So faI
as we can learn, our course as Editor has thus
far met the appreciation of our democratic friends
The federal coons are constantly finding faui
with the Sentinel, and most of them in towr
have ordered it to be discontinued. We like tc
see this, as we take it 10 be the best possible ev
idence that we are pursuing proper course
We shall continue to cry aloud and spare not
We are opposed to publishing to the world tht
names Of such persons as discontinue the paper
as is often done by publishers. A man has
clear and undoubted right to withdraw his pa
tronage from newspaper at any time, withou
assigning any reason; provided he pays up ar
rearages If the coons in Town who discontinu
ed, don't fork over the arrearages due withou
being called upon, they can let it alone, " anc

Democratic Meeting at Annapolis.
We are requested to give notice to our friends

Inapolis, in Jefferson county, on Saturday next,
the 29th instant We hope that there will be a
general turn out ofth German and Rumley De-
mocracy on that occasion. The meeting will

several other distinguished speakers. Our friends
in the townships are beginning TO move in the
right manner-they are awake to the importance
of the approaching contest. Now is the time to
Polk it into our adversaries without fear or favor.
Our cause is our country's cause, the cause of
truth, and must prevail. The day of federal
humbugs and delusions has gone by, and the
people are not again to be led astray by the
abominable electoneering fooleries Of 1910,
The Democracy have but TO will it, and their
success is certain.

The mountain IN labor and brought forth amose"
The federal coons of Cadiz advertised in their
papers that there would be a meeting on last
Thursday evening, in the Court House, and that
the Hon. 3. S, CowEN, of ST. Clairsville, would
address the multitude; and moreover, that there
would be music on the occasion. The evening
came Mr.. Cowen came, but the crowd come
up missing! 1t was perfect abortion7-a COM
plete failure! Mr.. Cowen is usually an interest
ing and entertaining whig orator, but on the
present occasion he seemed TO have lost his fire
and animation--his logic and his humor His
speech was dull, heavy and prosing. was all
Tariff and Texas from beginning to end! We
wish he would travel the State, and deliver the
same speech in every township,--it would be
the best thing that could happen for the Demo
cracy.-It fell on the ears of his whig auditors
like cold water in winter. They were weared
out, and were seon nodding assent in all drec
tions! How ridiculous it is for the friends o.
HENRY CLAY to attempt to galvanize their de.
funct party into life and being! The coon is
dead--dead-dead

HoU these coons are gipea to Lying The
Clay coons first assert that Gov. Polk is duel
list and had killed man in deadly combat
Finding they couldn't stick to this lie, they next
say that he is coward! And why? Because,

Henry A. Wise called him tyrant, and he did
not drive ball through his heart for SO saying
Who would be whig?

be pleased to hear from the author often.
"NAPoLEoN IN EXILE" although containing
some fine sentiments, yet the measure is bad,
and the piece contains one or two historical in
accuracies. The author has carried his poet

right, il was French ship, under the command

ten a letter to Francis P B lair, then an intimate
and confidential friend of Mr. Clay In that let
ter is the evidence conclusive Of the bargain be-
tween Messrs Adams and Clay.-ln a late

to Mr. White, friend of Mr. Clay, that they
should address joint letter to Mr.. Clay, asking
him to permit the letter to be published. Mr.,
White refus ed to join in the letter Mr.. Blair
still has the letter, but cannot publish it, be-
cause it is marked confidential" Why will
not Mr.. Clay agree that il be published? His
friends lately called on Gen. Jackson 10 permit
Gen. Hamilton to publish one of his confidential
letters: General Jackson responded, and gave
him leave to publish it. Now, when Mr.. Clay is
called upon to let Mr.. Blair publish his confden-
| tial letter, he refuses. Why? For the very
best Of reasons--it will prove his guilt!

that their whig neighbors are constantly borrow
ing the Sentinel, and frequently take it away be-
fore it is perused by the rightfu owner, and for
get to returnit. We don't know how TO remedy
the evil. We should like if the Sentinel were
read by every whig in the county, and if we
could afford it, we would send it to them gratui-
tously But as they possess all the wealth. y
we suppose if they consider the Sentinel so in

issued from the press, they should order the pa
per TO be left at their own stores and dwell
