MR.. CLAY's LETTER.
MANSFIELD, Oct. 3, Is

MANSFIELD, Oct. 3, 1861.
My DEAR SIR:-Your favor of the
25th ultimo reached me only on yester-
day, having been absent from home at
the time of its arrival.
You write that almost daily you are
asked by some one, Chow does Mr..
Thomas H. Clay stand? Does he still
adhere with zeal aud devotion to the
undying Union sentiments of his illus
trious father?" You were right in your
answers to those inquirers. There is
no abatement in my love of the Union
and detestation of treason, and | shall
carry them with me to the grave. In
the words Of my father, On another oc-
casion, ''The power, the authority and
dignity of the fought to be
maintained, and resistance put down at
every hazard" Our neutrality has been
violated by the Generals of the Confed-
crate armies; our soil has been invaded.
and we are in for the war. Ohio and
Indiana are coming up nobly to our
rescue. Our position of neutrality
would have left us an easy prey to the
rebber bands of rebellion, which are
being thrown upon US by JEFF. Davis
and his myrmidons, but for their gener-
Gus aid and assistance; and all this may
perhaps be unavailing, unless the Gen
eral Government shall order large
army into our borders without delay.
The enemy has determined to winter
in Kentucky. The Governor of Ten
nessee has issued a proclamation for
10000 more volunteers. 1t is said
many of the regiments, heretofore on
the Potomac, are ordered to the assist
ance Of the renegade Buckner and Zolli-
Golfer. Should Gen. Anderson be sus-
tained, in the words of Tom. Corwin,
we will welcome them with bloody
hands to hospitable graves.
"The dark and bloody ground will
again be the theater of war; war more
bloody and relentless than any recorded
in history.
We have all confidence in our noble
Anderson and his staff.
The fiery cross is cleaning every
where; the friends of the Southern Con-
federacy are fleeing from our borders,
and what will be left will be pure gold
with but little reasonable alloy
Beaten back from Kentucky, the war
must be carried into their own terrific
ries, their leaders must be surrendered,
and the Constitution and laws must be
vindicated.
I remain, truly your friend,
THGS. Ell. CLAY.

Njln referring our readers to that valuable rom.
edy, Perry Davis Pam Killer, we can only reitcrato
what we have long asserted that this is wonderful
killer of pain; indeed we have continually recon-
mended that no house should be without it. We
cannot do better than to copy article OF the sub
jeet, which we extract from the North Carolina Bib
lcal Recorder; it runs thus:
I'VE call attention to the great remedy of Perry
Davis & Son, called the Pain Killer. We believe
that the pabiic generally have great confidence in
the efficacy of this medicine it in this State very
generally used.-6iblical Recorder, N. CO..

ligous cotemporary when particularly recon-
mend the careful perusal of the advertisement Of
the Pain Killer, in another column.

self-sen1ing Stamped Newspaper Wrap
pers-
The Postmaster General has ordered
to be placed on sale at the postoffices, a
new and convenient form of newspaper
wrappers, which will supply long-ex
listing want on the part of the public
These wrappers are formed of oblong-
square sheets, gummed at one end, and
adapted to any size newspaper. The in
PRODUCTION of these convenient envelopes
will, doubtless, greatly increase the
postal revenues, and promote the inter
ests of newspaper publishers by the ia
cilities which they afford in the trans
mission of their publications through
the mails. The venders of newspapers
should supply themselves with them, the
better to enable purchasers of their pa
pers TO transmit them, when read, to
their friends.

of Major James cavalry, at Cameron, on
Saturday came upon 25O or 300 Rebels
in a corn field, twenty miles south OF
Cameron, in Ray county. The advance
guard of nine routed them, they seeking
refuge in the timber. Our guard was
re-enforced by 30, when they completely
drove them from that section, killing
eight and taking five prisoners. -Four
Federals were wounded; none killed
Our cavalry were at first fired on by sew
enty-fve men. One lieutenant has
thirty two bullet holesin his clothes, and
six scratched his skin.
They run with great regularity and
without trouble from any source. The
employees of the company numbering
some Hundreds, have all recently taken
the oath of allegiance. Maps and spec
iGcations received from the Surveying
party on the new route from DenEer to
Salt Lake, show the obstacles are much
less than were anticipated. The road
can be obtained at comparatively small
expense.

MARION, Oct. 5, 1861.
On the 5th day of July, 1861, in the
evening, on the pavement in front of
w. A. Turner's JeweIry store, in Ma
rion, Ohio, / met j. NJ. Christian and
a friend of mine, when Christian asked
me if [ was out last night? l did not
tell him, thinking it was none of his
business; when Christian remarked to
ny friend saying: II guess he does
not understand the ropes; I guess we
had better show him, to which the other
man replied: ''I guess We had better
show him. They then. took me up
the front stairs, in the railroad bnildipg,
and down the back stairs, at which
place he christian said: owe Demo
Gratis have Joined together in an obliga-
ton, and have signs and grips by which
we know each other;'' stating that it
was necessary for Democrats to join to-
pether in an association for protection;
that if they did not, they (the Republi-
cans and Abolitionists) would mob and
hang them all; that they had tried to
mob an Office in Columbus, when this
society had interfered and saved it; also
that they had tried to mob man north
of here, when he called on the members
of this, society, and they appeared in
force and saved him; and that this was
the only way that the Democrats could
be protected. He then took a paper
from his pocket, which he said con-
tained the oath of obligation, and com
menced to administer the oath to me BY
telling ne to repeat after him, which
oath was as follows: II, John Sewers,
do solemrly swear" at which point l
objected, saying that l did not like to
take such an oath, stating that was a
good Democrat, when he replied: Owe
do not doubt your Democracy, John,
but this will make you better Demo

The REPUBLICAN, JOURNALS ON THE SPEAKH8
AND CLERK OF THE NEXT HoUsE.-The republi-
can journals are beginning to speculate upon
the nominations for Speaker and Clerk of the
next Congress, and suggest for the Speakerstdp
the Hon. Galusha A. Grow, Of Pennsylvania,
and the Hon. Frank P. Blair, of Missouri, and
for the Clerkship the Hon. Emerson Etheridge,
of Tennessee. 1t is generally conceded that
Chevalier F0Eneys time is up, and that he may
as we'll pack his trunk for an early departure
from Washington.
The names suggested BY our republican con-
temporaries are good ones. Mr.. Grow Is q very
competent man, and was candidate ssr
the Speakership of the last Congress. Mr.:
Etheridge would make, doubtless, a very Ca
psble Clerk. Still we stick to the nominations
made by us, few days since, and urge that
Frank P. Blair for Speaker and John B. Has
kin for Clerk is as good and as strong ticket
as can be offered. Both are very competent
men, and the Offices would be we'll filed BY
their election.
