Blair has more popularity with the Democratic members of Congress, and the Democracy of the United States, than any edi- tor in them; and by the course adopted. (he) will disunite instead of uniting the Democracy.
 Present me to MT. Blair, and say to him, that was so sick. yesterday, and exhausted, writing to the President, that could not say half what I wished, but if have strength, will soon write to him again.

 MT. Ritchie appears to be quite uneasy, toe, at the suppostion, that the mysterious ""'"""' Gen. Jacksons letter, just published by Maj Lewis, should be taken to stand for '" RITCHIE." This he expressly denies-and professes to know, though he does not tell, who the "great unknown" is.- In the Union of Tuesday, he says :-" We kno,o the name which is indicated by '*""**', in Gen. Jack sons private letter, published by Wm. B. Lewis We saw that name in another private letter. address sed to gentleman in this city, by Gen. Jackson - It was not Ritehie; and the Richmond Times and Compiler willy therefore, be pleased 10 clear our name from any5vague allusion which it may have made to SIS.
