Characteristic OF tie writer's. Mr. CLAY afyes hi
opinions in his usually straight forward manly
way. MIR. Van Burens epistle might easily have
been recognized among a dozen Others if it had no

contempt by the convention. Mr. Cass was q

ago. Mos; OF the Locofoco leaders at Washing

they shoEld want money. In view of these diff
