Mr. Clay's Letter.


We pointed out 10 our contemporaries Of the Republic
and Iateigenor those passages OF Mr. Clay's letter
which written in direct condemnation OF the pres
emit attitude and organization OF the wing party in New
York. Pennsylvania and Ohio II will be seen by the
following notice that the Republic fights shy upon the
whole matter, neither approving Mr.. Clay's views nor
disappearing them:
"HsSRy CLAY-Wc give In another column a letter
from Mr. Clay that will be read with the ,mtssa that nj,

This is vague enough-especiay considering that the
Republic told US only week ago how willingly il would
support Mr. Clay for the presidency. The above Ian
guaGe is remarkable only very significant admission
that the Republic with US in thinking that Mr.
Clay means to condemn, and does condemn. the wing

Ths Pending Gubsrnatorial Election in Virginia.
Our readers will find under the signature OF Stafford
some observations from an Old Virgnian well wo,thy
OF attention He speaks as one who knows his subject
and upon whose statements, TO use turf phrase, It IL
safe to bet There a greater deluslon than
that which has taken possession of the wing party in
the present crisis. When Virginia behind any
State OF this Union in crisis calling the voice OF her
people, and testing their devotion the principles OF the
constitution as they were understood by Jefferson and
Madison To suppose that Virginia will not stand by
Pennsy in the great victory just gained by the lat
ter over the combined forces of federalism and aboli
tonsm, would be to dishonor all her past glory in the
creation of our federal SYSTEM and in the administration
of the government created by it.
