ioVra—Aticriate Ism DniociteTtc STA - rt.—We
have received from a friend in lowa, the Constitution
dfilibr ifalieh that flourishing territory asks to be ad-
Ithlta into the Unice, and we have examined its pro
vident with =mingled pleasure. We would invite
our srbig friends to glance at the following summary
of theCoastitution formed by a Democratic Conven•
till*. -brined on. as it is, and embodying as it dn.'s,
the true principles of the Democratic creed, and say
wherein they could improve it. The Democrats can
put tothis document, and proudly contrast it with
tiairtyrtsmous constitution of Rhode Island, which is
solely eattaireed by the whigs —we know no better
is of lierivitig at, and testing the respective princi
pies of toe too great parties, than by a comparison
of Ilse-Constitutions of Rhode Island and of lowa.
'filbit Bill of Rights sets forth that no religions test
"baits required as a qualification for any office or
peblie trust, and that no person shall be deprived of
mg of his rights. privileges or capacities, nor render
ed laeormetent to give legal evidence on account a
Ms opinion oaths subject of religion. It also deClares
tau "Foreigners who are residents of the State shall
esde7 the same rights, in respect to the possession,
'Kappa:tent, and descent of property es native born chi
aess,"—and that "Neither Slavery. nor involuntary
olevituile, unless for the punishment of crimes, shall
ever bi tolerated in the Stet e."

THY LAST CARD.—The Lexington (Ky.) Intelli
geneer,a few days before the election, closed • pow
erful appeal in favor of Cley with the following re
marks. ?bey Deem to have been uttereti in the spirit
of prophecy, for Mr Clay's career is, in truth, now to
close:
"In the course of nature.. his long, srirring and
eventful life must soon come to a dram. 1 his is tha
last time, in all human probability—yes, the last, that
he can never appear before his countrymen as a can
didate for suffrages—the lest opportunity that they
can ever have of rewarding an old, faithful public ser
vant for his long deviodon to them and their interests.
His career is now to close."
His career has aoto closed. The last struggle is
over, and after a quarter of a century of cot rept bar
gaining and intriguing, Mr Clay has lust the game for
which he played so baldly and unscrupclnusly. fie
has fulled to reach the goal fur which be sacrificed his
honest principles, fot which he sold his constituents,
and fur which he violated every principle of political
honesty and every feeling of manly independence. He
will now be cast off' by the party to which he has
clung w long and for which he has sacrificed so much,
as being no longer worthy of their support, in as much
as the odium of his political career prevented them
from getting the reins of Government into their hands.
"His career is bolo to' close," and political moralists
will hereafter prom to his bafilvd embitter' to prove
that a free and enlightened people will never confide
their interests to those who attempt to obtain power by
fraud,fiditehood and cot ruption. Such have beets the
means_ used by Henry Clay to accomplish his pur
poses, ever since ha deserted the Democratic parts;
and in every instance he has failed to obtain the object
for which he has toiled and struggled through life.—
May such be the fate of all who strive for power by
other mesas than the honest preferences of the people,
■nd who, if they could obteiu it, would use it for the
aggrandizement of the wealthy few while they-would
debase and oppress the "toiling mil ions."

The following communication cotresponds exactly
with what everybody, really sincere in the mattrr, be
to be the case. This flag is still, however,
flaunting through the columns of the ,newspapers
ahrund, . which token their cue and their facts from
their Whig authorities in this cklind we suppose it
is a uo use to attempt to stop it:
To the Editors of the Moreing Newts
Gattrhstar.N—l obscure in your paper this morning
notice of the banner on which was inscribed, "Amer.

saloon last evening. I overheard a conversation Le.
tween two gentlemen in the next box. One said to
the other, "Did you sea that banner in the Locofoco
procession the other night?" "No," was the reply.
"Well, I did," reinarhed the firmer gentlemen; "se
gct it up among (retrieves, to exasperate the Natives
and get them to vote for Clay. It was carried by
%V/Jigs, and was only raised up its they passed knots of
Whigs on the corners. stationed by a preeonceited
movement, in order that they could tell their friends,
and, if necessary, swear that they saw it." 1 then
heard the other gentleman ask who it was that painted
the banner, the other said it was a man by the name of
Christopher, and that his brother Jo. Christopher car•
tied it."
