Journal, an artiele.ou the famous bargain
and coalition slander, which embittered
the whole life of Minty Clay. and tuf &Ohl
kept him out of thn Presidential affair.=
For this article we ask the candid and an ,
biassed attention of every reader. . ,
' As those exciting political events took
place more than thirty years ago, a rapid
review of them maybe interestingto seine ,
of our readers. In the Presidential con
test of 1821, no candtdate was elected by
the people, and consequently the duty of
choosing the President - from the three per ,
eons having the 'highest number devolved
on the House of Representatives. Mr.
Clay- had .been a ,candidate himself. and
bad great influence in, the ilouse, and
could control a sufficient number of Votes
to decide the plestion between Jackson
and A:dama, whit hid received the greatest
number of electoral votes, and 'were tltoj
principal contestants before the :House.--
Mr. Clay and his friends voted for Mr. Ad
ams, and e was consequently elected, and
i
Gen. J ckson, smarting under the disap- I
af ,h
point ent of deteat, gave currency
.to the ]
charge of corruption against Mr. Clay by ,
stating that Mr. Clay or his friends bad
made proposals to vote for ' him :for the
Presidency 'in the House ef, Ilepreseeta

be Secretary of State; And Gen. Jackeon

secietaryahip;and was' so'" worded that it
'might he, used; witheffeet by *Mr. Clay's

In the article referred to' the .reader will
'ad' the proof that' Mi. Bnehanan himself

presence of Gov. Lowlier, now living, that

COL. BENTON AND TEN PRESI.
DENCX.--The Washington , Union,. iho

"Old Bullion." The Union explains the
mystery'of the old man's support of Bu•
ohanan. Hear the oraolo of Domooraoy on
Benton : •
1 "We think the nomination of Col. Fre
mont furnishes an "explanation" which
relieves Col. Benton's_ course of all `!lxtyg
tery." That he is opposed to tho olootion
of his own son-in-law will be credited by
no one ;that he was cognizant of the
scheme which has resulted in his son:in
laW's nomination will'hardly be question.
ed. If ho can draw off from the Demo
erotic electoral ticket, and thereby give the
Fillmore electoral ticket d plurality, he will
increase - the chaneee 'of the election of
.hiripson-in-law in t,he House of Represen
tatives.
If Col. Benton was honestly for Mr.
Buchanan, (which he mat be without
stultifying himself,) be would decline to
run for Governor, and have the I3onton
electoral ticket withdrawn His support
of 111 r. Buchanan, however. islisincere.—
He is working for the .election of Col.
Fremont„ which. would enable Old Bullion
to be '"the Power bebind the throne greater
than 'the throne.” '

HERRING SAFE preserved the' Jowelkry. of
Gee. W.Simqns Bro, ; Books, Papers dm, of
Fisher ik Bro. and Edward Semans Co., af
ter remaining exposed to the horning ruins for
nearly FORTY lIOURS, and proving conclu•
sivdly what we have always claimed for them
their great superiority over all securities now
known.
In these fires, the HERRING'S SAFE,
standing side by side with those advertised us
"warranted to stand 10 per cent.more fire than
Henings,"came forth the acknowledged victor,
not only preserving their contents in excellent
order, but being themselves in a condition to
e go through another ordeal, while the boasted
Els' 'menders" of other makers were badly
used up in every instance, and in some cases
their entire contents completely destroyed.
To the public we would simply say, that,
during the 14 yenrs that Herring's Safe has
been before them, more then two hundred
haVe passed through accidental fires without
the occurrence of a single loss.
!We, would, therefore, caution purchasers
.10instthe misrepresentation ofinterested par
ties, The Herring's Patent is the only Fire
proof Safe made, in this city which is protected
by ar Patent Right.. and we will guarantee it to
resist more than double the amount of heat of

-whom it owes its elevation, by an American
ballot-box; It appeals to the American worn
