I An Address by Henry Clay. Hi» name mbmitted to a National Convention. Hexht C|lat has given publicity to the following Address, authorising his name to be presented to the Whig National Convention. TO THE PUBLIC. The various and conflicting-reports which have been in circulation in regard to my intentions with respect to the next presidency, appear to me to furnish a proper occasion for a full, frank and ex plicit exposition of my feelings, wishes and Views upon the subject. This it is now proper to make. With a strong disinclination to the use of my name again in connection with that •''office. I left my resi dence in December last, under a determination to announce to the public in some suitable form my desire not to be thought of as a candidate. During my absence I frequently expressed to different gen tlemen my unwillingness to be again in that atti tude* but though no one was authorized to publish my decision one way or the other, having reserved the right to’ do so exclusively to myself, on reflec tion, I thought it was due to my friends to consult with them before I took a decisive and final step. Accordingly, within the course of the last three months, I have had opportunity of conferring fully and freely with them. Many ; of them have ad-° to me the strongest 'appeals, and the most • earnest entreaties, both verbally and written, to dissuade me from executing my intended purpose. They represented to me that the withdrawal of my name would be fatal to the success, and per haps lead to the dissolution of the party with which I have been associated, and especially in the free States; that at no former period did there ever exist so great a probability of rny election if I would consent to the use of my name; that the great States of New York and Ohio would in all probability cast their vote for me. that New York | , would more certainly bestow her suffrage upon me ■ than upon any other candidate, and that Ohio l . would give her vote-to ho candidate residing in the i slave States but to me; that there is a hotter pros- • pect than has hcrctoforo at any time existed, .that Pennsylvania would unite with them : that no can didate can be elec/ed without the concurrence of two of these three/States: and none could be de feated upon whom all of these should be united: i*that great numbers of our fellow citizens, both of native aiid foreign birth, who were dccei\ed..and j therefore voted against rne at the la<! election, are now eager for an opportunity of bestowing their 1 suffrages upon me, and that while there is a strong i and-decided 'preference fur me entertained bv the 1 great body of the Whig party throughout the 17. 1 States, that (the friends to whom I refer) at-the same time are convinced that-l am more available than any candidate that could he presented for the American people. I do not pretend to vouch for the accuracy of all these representations, although I do not entertain a doubt that they have been | honestly made, and arc sincerely believed. | It ha’s beern moreover, urged to the that the gre it | . obligations, under which I have been hitherto ■placed bya large portion of the United States, tnc full force of which no one can be more scribble of i : than I am, demand that I should not withhold the j use of my name if it should be requested. And I j have been reminded.of trequent declarations which : I have made, that whilst life and health remain, a I man is bound to render his best services upon the j call of his country. ! Since my return home, I have anxiously delibcr- j ated upon my 1 duty to my.-clf. to my principles, to , my friends, and above all. to my country. The • conflict between my unaffected desire to continue j in private life, as most congenial with my feelings ; and condition, and mv wish faithfully to periurm ; all my public duties, has been painful and embar- • rassing. If I refuse the use of my name and those • injurious consequences should ensue waicli nave , been so confidently predicted by friends, l should ; justly incur their reproaches, and the reproaches ; of my own heart: and if, on the contrary, I should 1 assent to the use of my name, whatever the result 1 may be, I shall escape both. 1 have, therefore finally decided to leave to the National Convention, which is to as>crnnle in June. • the consideration of my mure, in connection with such others as mav he presented to it. to make a selection of a suitable candidate for President of the United .States, and whatever may be the issue ' of its fair and full deliberation?. it will meet with my promptjdnd cheekful acquiescence. It will be seen from what I have stated, that • there was reason to anticipate that 1 would decline giving my consent to the use of my name again as a candidate lor the Presidency ot the Lniteif States. Owing perhaps to tliis, as well as other causes, many of my friends and fellow citizens have avowed a preference for, and directed their at tention to, the distinguished names ut other citi zens of the United States. I take pleasure in truly declaring that 1 have no regrets to express, no complaints, no reproaches to make on account ol any such pre.erences. winch. I am iully persuaded, are generally iounded on honest and patriotic con victions. H. CLAI. Ashland, 10th April, IS IS. Horiblc Affair in Grafton, X. 15. Canaan, N. 11., April 8. Ib4b. The quiet community of this charming inland town lias been thrown into u iciorhh state ol ex citement by the arrival here yesterday ol the Rev Enos Dudley, a Baptist clergyman of some note in ,these parts, in charge ol an oliicer. to undergo an examination for the murder ol his wiie. in the neighboring ’.own ol Draiion, about li\c weeks since. The facts connected with this horrible charge, •as 1 have been able to collect them, are these: About the middle of March, Rev. Mr. Dudley took his wile out' to ride, and after an absence of a couple ol hours, he returned to his house, bringing back the lady a corpse. La explanation ot th** tra gedy; he told his family that the sleigh upset, throwing his wile \ ideally ugaiu.it a stump, and causing her death upon the spot. He at once pro ceeded to make a eoliiu with his own hands, and with little assistance as possible, placed the body id it. The funeral was conducted with haste, and marked with a'total absence oJ all decern pi op. na tion and display. The version he gave ol the manner ol his wdes death, appears at ln>t luh.t\e been crodued: but the manner ol' her burial, and suuictimtg peculiar in the conduct of the hu>b md after the hmcrul, arbused suspicious ol loui play. At the suggestion Of oi the dece.ist.-J mends, the 1 aly aa? u.s -_ entered in thc'e.u ly part ol tins w-.v.t, and a coun cil ol puys.ci ms held a pj-A rnirie u ex innu ion upon Hi The retail was a uiummojs opuuon among the medical men, that tne deceased was .strangled! ' This announcement cati.-ed an immense excite ment in Grullon. where the accused was well known, and aside from some peculiar leaning to wards the doctrmes ol much esteemed and respected, lie was immediately arrested, and .conveyed to this place, where the ajiair is now being investigated.
