HENRY CLAY AND THE PREsIDENCY.-In the
Cincinnati Chronicle of the 23d ult., we have
another letter from Henry Clay in reference to the
Presidency.
Certain members of the wing party of Cine innati,
it seems, had addressed Mr.. Clay, inviting him to
assume an independent. position with regard to
the present canvass for the Presidency and assuring
him Of the earnest support of numerous friends.
In answer to this Mr.. Clay says, in substance:
My name, gentlemen submitted by my consent to
the consideration of the National Wing Convention which
met in Philadelphia but which did think proper place
me in nomination as a candidate for the Presidency.
have quietly submitted to the decision of that body,
and cannot consent to any further consideration OF name
in cOnnexion with the office of President of the United
States and accordingly have RETAINED from giving, and
must continue decline giving the slightest
or countenance to any such use OF it. III. CLAY"

CASE OF BISHOP 0NDERDoNK.-The Protestant
IN. W CLurchman of the 23d says: The Con-
vention of the church in this Diocese is about to
assemble, in the course of the ensuing week, and
there are many inquiries made as well as numerous
comments, relative to the probable proceedings of
that body. If we remember right, the salary of
S25OO, given to DR.. Onderdonk out of the Episco-
pal fund, terminates at the approaching session,
unless renewed by a fresh vote of the Convention.
This question WILL probably, therefore be pressed,
and the sanction of the Convention be sought for
a continuance of the salary We doubt whether
there is any disposition on the part of those who
believe the sentence to be just or valid, to oppose
this measure, and it is likely, therefore, if those
who have hitherto supported the Bishop feel dis
posed to keep the Diocese in its present anomalous
condition, that his salary will be continued unless
they should deem it expedient to advise his resig
nation upon certain terms and conditions.

bcs- The Lexington (Ky.) Atlas denies the asser-
tons of Governor Letcher and the Dayton Bulletin,
that the gradual emancipation of Slavery will be
seriously agitated by the Convention recently called
to amend the Constitution in that State, and says,
"We are very sure-judging from what we hear
from well-informed persons from every section of
the State, both shareholders and non-slaveholders,
that the question of gradual abolition Of Slavery
will meet with but few supporters, unless COLOMBIA
ton, or removal of the slaves emancipated from the
State be coupled with it.

INSECURITY OF THE MAIL.-We learn from the
Norfolk Herald that there have been lately several
miscarriages of letters containing remttances from
MurfreesborOugh, N. e., to Norfolk, and other
places north, and among them one from Messrs,
Carter and Trader, merchants of that town. In
this instance the letter was sealed andsmailed in
in the presence of witnesses SO that there could
be no mistake that, with its Enclosure, it left the
post-ofice at Murfreesborough, and just as little
that it was stolen from the mail on its way from
that town to Norfolk. Many years ago precisely
the same thing occurred on this route

DISASTERS AT SEA.-Capt. Wakeman of the
schooner Relampago, reports that on the 10Th ult
in lat. $50 CO., long. 72o CO., he picked up the main
boom and main gait of large schooner. The
boom was forty-nine feet long; the main mast ap-
peared to have been cut away but short time, and
measured seventy feet in length and twenty-eight
inches in diameter. The spars had all the rigging
attached-when he discovered them they were
dashed together in triangular form, apparently for
the purpose of forming raft Captain Wakeman
could see nothing of any other part of the vessel
and he thinks that she capsized and after the main
mast and rigging were cut away that she righted,
and proceeded on her voyage. Captain Wakeman
also states that he experienced severe gales during
the whole passage from Tabasco to the s. W. Pass.
