Letter from Hon. Henry Clay.

ASHLAND, goth July, 184S.
Dear Sir: wish to express to you the qualification
derived on receiving the July number of the Mer-
chants Magazine and Commercial Review from view
ing your portrait in the beginning and from reading
your address to your friends at the end of it. When
we feel under obligations to those who have contrib
uted to our information and amusement, we are nat
uraliy DESTROYS to possess a knowledge of them Of
their appearance, of the features of their counten
lnce. and of the character and habits of their mind
which We can acquire. You have placed your mum
erous readers (at least you have me- if may not
speak for them) under those obligations and the
number of your valuable work now before me, in
some degree, satisfies the desire to which have allu
led.
have become quite familiar with the Magazine
and Review, and have no hesitation in expressing my
humble opinion that it is emnently entitled to the
public regard and support Itcollects and arranges
in good order, large amount of valuable statistical
and other information, highly useful not only to the
merchant but to the statesman to the cultvator of
the earth, to the manufacturer. to the mariner in
short to all classes Of the business and reading COM
munity.
Entertaining this opinion, I am glad that it has
been, and hope that it may continue to be, literally
patronized.
Offering you cordial assurances of my esteem and
regard, am truly your friend and obedient servant

Notwithstanding the advance in the price
of building materials, as well as in that of
labor, the city is steadily enlarging by the
addition of new buildings. Go into any
section of the city and the signs Of business
and prosperity are around you. Old and
unsghtly houses are being taken down and
their places supplied by more enlarged and
conmodious edifces. On the corner oppo-
site to our Office stood range of old fash
Toned dwellings which had been changed to
inconvenient and unsightly stores, these
have all been removed, and row of beauti-
full stores of improved construction, is
rising in their place-so it is throughout
the city; and in the suburbs, out of the
present limits of direct taxation are spring.
ing up elegant and costly dwellings, fit
habitations for the successful merchant,
manufacturer and mechanic. These evil
dences of prosperity are grateful to our
hearts, and We trust that they will go on
multiplying around US, and the Monu-
mental City soon become as celebrated for
her power and commercial Importance, as
she is now for the patriotism of her sons,
and the beauty Of her daughters. Argus.
