NATIONAL DEhocRATIc CONVENTION. = The
views we expressed in the Globe few weeks since,
urging that the Democratic Party of the Union should
throw aside all sectional preudces, and come togeth

intent solely promoting the harmony and success
of the party and the prosperity of our common coun-
try-banishing all exciting extraneous questions and
sources of irritation-have been responded to very
generally b, the Democratic press of the East and
West, the North and the South. Yes-our brethren
of Virginia, Tennessee. Kentucky, Alabama, Mssis-

Colonel Efenfoii. .

The whig pagers are eagerly circulating para
graph which represents the Missouri Senator as hos
tile to the administration. We understand, from the
most respectable authority, that there is not the
slightest 0undation for any such report. Among
other papers which seized upon this misrepresentation,
the NaticEal Wing of this city, in which paper
it was re-pubshed on the 23d August in the follow
ing terms - Union.
Mr.. BENTON Mr.. Polk 1t is certain says the Lou
isve Journal Of the IN instant that Mr. Benton is pepar-
ing himself foI terrific attack upon the administration next
the Senate chamber At town in the interior of
Kentucky few days ago. he cot into conversation upon
subject Of the Mexican war; and became immensely ex-
citedpeecty Infatuated He said that an oppoIi unity had
been passed by Of making advantageous and honorable
peace and that he could show the fact and would show it,
As for the whole management Of the war; he avered that it
had utterly dsgaceul He stated that he should 60 to
Washington and make speech the subject-ony
and would be the greatest speech Of his life, and he
willing that it would be the last In speaking OF the
administration, his language barely, if at ALL fell short If
downright cuIsng. His wIahful defamation lasted full
hour.
Col. Benton himself put the extinguSher upon this
article by addressing to the editors of the National
Wing the following characteristic card:
To the Editors Of the National Wing:
GENTLEMEN: On seeing the article from the Louisville
Journal headed Mr.. Benton and Mr. Polk, in your paper
Of this day have to request that the paper be no longer
left at my house. Yours, respectfully,
Aug 90, lS47. THOS. II. BENTON.
We are happy to see the decided spirit in which
Col. B. meets this unfounded assertion. AT time
when we are engaged in foreign war-when the
republican administration has not only to overcome
the enemy abroad but to cope with the opposition at
home-when every effort is made to disgrace the
President to defeat the objects of the war, and to
substitute wing regime for the republican system
when Mr. Polk has complied with all his pledges, and
carried out the great principles of the republican par
ty. and when would suppose that every republican
would rally around him, from sentiment of gratitude
for the past well as of confidence in his principles
it is to be hoped that the whole party will again
unite in support Of the administration against
wagering and indefatigabe opposition. They were
counting as appears from this article upon COL b.
But the Colonel abiures their embraces

Mr.. Clay ia the Field asain--On cOndi-


We copy the following article entire (notwithstand-
ing lis length) from the New York Tribune of yes
terday as showing the new stand winch Mr.. Clay
and hs influential friends in the Wing party now
assume The country will learn. without the least
surprise, that Mr. Clay is quite ready to run once
more Tor the Presidency in case and upon condition,
that al Ire Peopie shall call upon him to do So Nay
mores both he and his friends are even willing to
''rdF bte chite to see if all the people will not give
him such call Really it would seem as if Waig
politics did not improve the modesty of candidate
particularly after he NAV have been defeated some
half a dozen times. Yet, utter all, there may be-
wisdom In Mr.. Clsy's new attitude in this matter
railing so many times to be President as the nominee
oi party claiming to be at least half the nuraber
end :" all the decency" of the people, he now thinks
his chance might be somewhat better II all the people
should nominate him. Maybe it would. Though
the force Of habit is great. and Mr. Clay has dread
fll habit of being beaten. He might fail then.
However 1t Is consong to know that his ''infoentIal
friends are willing to wait" (perhaps all the
Wing Convention is about to meet.) and see how the
elections 90, and how the land lies.
One thing we hid for certain Mr.. Gays friends
will get the call Of the whole people for Mr.. Clay
just about as soon they prove that his course
during the later years of his political life, and espe-
clally about tie time of the memorable Twenty
Seventh Congress, has been in harmony with - the
old Democracy Of Jefferson and Madison"
But 10 the article in question, with on y one word
more The Tribune says that Mr.. Clay wants the
virtual call of the country Is that journal quite
sure that he would not be satisfied with the call
virtual or nOt-of only the Wing portion of the
country! That has been the case always, as We
have seen.
