Hon. n. u. walker, OF wiseoasl..

We see BY the Wisconsin papers that the wings free
soilers sc, opposed the OF the Hon p. Walker
the senator elect IRON Wisconsin, because he Cass
democrat The legislative correspondence OF the South

But tina; precisely the same difficulty happen

course THIS created much anxiety and excitement

the previous question demanded, and sustained.
The question then was, Shall the main question be now

readers on the election of Mr. Walker and the defeat Of
the conspiracy of the wings and reesoers against him
The Wisconsin" says that the editor OF the Sentinel"
.pompousy announced weeks since that the wings

in the legislature the democrats To help sustain
this boasting, be goes Madison nominally to attend
the meeting of the regents, but really to prevent the
choice Of senator or if that could not be done, TO
form coalition with the Van Bureniies. We under
stand that it was well known al Madison that he

delegate the Buffalo Convention who Illuminated

clique that this conspiracy would succeed, that the
nth instant the day of the election OF Mr. Walker, the
Sentinel came with announcement OF the probable

But Mr. Walker pas elected the first ballot. The
conspiracy is thus fooled. The people strong

Roscius again upon the Boards.

The telegraph from Cincinnati February 3D. announces
the election of the Hon Henry Clay 10 the United States
Senate the ls instant. for six years from the 4h OF
March next place of Thomas H. Melcalfe appoi Rted
BY the governor fiji the vacancy occasioned by the
sg nation OF MIR Cnenden.
The temperance OF such finished actor upon the
stage reminds OF the celebrated saying OF Shakespeare,
what bloody scenes has Roscius to act'" After
the pathetic in which he retireiron the Senate
Of the United States, in March, 1872 his temperance
on the same theatre is phenomenon which is calculated
to excite world of surprise and of speculation We all
recolect the ocean OF pathetic with which he was
borne out OF the Senate chamber We all recoec the
splendid picture of this vaeictoy which af-
forwards gotten up with much ecat and which hangs
upon many parlor wall with its hundreds OF fac sine
faces taken with world OF pains from the lfe to
memorate this iusrious spectacle. What has become
of all this scenic illusions What has become Of the
touching letters which Mr. Clay addressed TO his friends
on his "dignihed retirement" If then denomina
ted? Are all these illusions forgotten Or they 10
be called up 10 remind the world the "vanty OF human
wishes and the active aspirations OF seepless ambi-
ton. Are we again to be reminded Of the memorable
aneciote OF Themisiocles weeping the laurels OF
Miltiades' Why does Mr. Clay stalk upon the
stage, Why has he burst the of the political
tomb 10 minge with the stormy ntrgues and
tumulfuous debates of the Senate chamber Be his Gin
tents wicked or charitable p Does he forth TO
serve his country, crafty his purposes i-to
stir or to still any that may nse upon the sur
face-to ih wart to promote the administration OF
General Taylor, Let the soohsayers, who have al
ready consulted the skies and specialized upon future
events speak now We will speak hereafter There is
but one question before which demands the talents OF
statesman Is Mr. Clay with his denunciaiions OF the
acquisition of Texas-with the rebuke still warm on
his lips from the assembly Lexington against all &C
QUESTIONS in New Mexico and Cahfornais he the man
to pour o upon the waves and give peace TO an ex
cited countryi
In all other respects, the country IS quiet blessed be-
yond the most exalted Imagination, requiring no disn-
guisbed man to from his retirement to ASSIST her
by his SPECIAL efforts When he retired in lsl2, he left
matters in very different position. His country was
then in difficulty, yet he retired TO Ashland. As the
Washington Globe then said
