toe OF three gentlemen wailed upon Mr.. Clay at
Ashland, for the purpose of getting letter endor-
sing the nomination and priaciWes[!lo f General
Tay lor. The old man heard them through, and
then remarked that i! was "rery strange that The
friends of an arniiabie candidate should ask an
unavailable candidate for an endorsement 1.-The
committee again urged him, and gave as reason
for their anxiety, that the old phigs were not COM
