The Presidency,

There is good deal of discussion going on at
present in the Wing papers in regard to the nomi-
nation for the Presidency. The contest at present
seems to be chiefly between the friends of Mr.
Clay and those of Gen. Taylor, although Cen
Scott, Judge M'Lean and Mr.. Webster have many
partizans The friends of Gen. Taylor testify their
love for Henry Clay, but urge the taking up of
new candidate as indispensable to success. They
aver that it is useless to sacrifice success to the
personal regard which the Wings bear to their
great leader The Clay men, on the contrary, say
that should Henry Clay be nominated he would be
sure of an election. How this may be, can best be
decided when the Convention shall meet, and after
the Locos have brought out their man. Let good
men be sent to the Convention, and let them nom-
mate the man whom they consider at that time the
most likely to secure the success Of Wing princi-
pies, and then let all trne Wings rally around that
nomination and support it, whether their particular
fayorite is nominated Or not. The great question
is, not whether Clay, Taylor Scott or MLean shall
be President but whether the runous course
which the government has been pursuing the last
few years shall be arrested, and new and better
order of things brought about And we are glad to
see that disposition to pursue this course is mani
tested in all quarters, North and South. There is
no longer any danger of any serious division in the
Wing ranks after the nomination shall have been
made.

Another Letter.

We have received another letter from Mr.. Da-
Wis, with the request that should publish it in
our columns, which perhaps we might have done,
had it all been like the first of it, filled with low
slang aimed at ourselves. But he has, under the
pretence of defending himself from the charge Of
falsehood nsinuated fresh attacks on Mr.. Webster,
which, however unfounded, land they are SOY shall
not be retaed through our columns. We took
this ground BEFORE in relation to his other commu-
nication, and we shall maintain it, But when the
communication appears in Mr. Davis organ, the
Times, as it undoubtedly will, we shall give it the
notice it deserves, and we think we shall have no
trouble in showing that all we have said in relation
to him is deserved, and if we erred in any way, it
was in being too lenent.

We understand that there was very full attend
ance of the members of this Society on Monday
evening, and that the exercises were of the most
interesting character. A lecture various sub
iects such as the Mechanic Arts, Physiology, Mag
netism, Temperance and Matrimony, was delivered
on the occasion by Mr.. p, gentleman from
Massachusetts, which was highly pleasing and edi-
flying to the members present A vote of thanks to
the speaker was passed, and the meeting broke up,
satisfied that better lecturer for the Society could
not be obtained. 1t is hoped however, that among
the numerous gentlemen who have taken up public
Iecturing as a calling, sufficient number may be
found of suitable qualifications, to the pur
poses of the Society-although it has been very
hard hereto, to find those of the requisite talents
and information demanded by the dignity and high
