HENRY CLAY is expected TO arrive at Newport
some time in the course of the next two weeks, and
will take up his residence at horndike's. We

be made aware that the people are not unmindlul of
his great services nor regardless of his worth His

The Democratic pioneer. [volume] (Upper Sandusky, Ohio) 1845-1853, 1847-06-18
The Thing settled.

Rough and Ready correspondent OF
he had prior to the battle Of Monterey
He was in stately old mansion and
svenerable old gentleman, who prove to
he Gen. George Washington entered and
asked for some refreshments we let
the dreamer tell the rest Of his story IN
his own nervous language:
Being compelled to leave, and never
expecting to enjoy an opportunity of see
ing the patriot sage of Mount Vernon
AGAIN and determined to obtain his ad-
vice before eagerly asked him for whom
sbouId cast nv vote in 1S49. NY predi-
lection induced me 70 believe that he
would al once reply Henry Clay But
what was nv surprise and delight no one
can imagine, when he responded in the
following words: Not only the most
suitabJe. but the most available man in
the United States for the Presidency is
General Zachary Taylor, and he will be
elected in ls4s by acclamation.'
Upon this the Richmond Enquirer truly
remarks: sWe have heard of the wings
eating and drinking, and singing hero
into the presidency, but this is the first
case recorded of dreaming one into
that high Office. We pass over the writ
er's Justification of Rory O'More axiom,
that 'dre ans always go contrary, my dear,
and only regret that the dreamer had not
asked Gen. Washington whether the
country, to whose independence and pros
perity he had given the strongest impulse,
was really 'ruined, as the wings declar>
ed Free Press.
