ties; all of which were largely attended and
characterise'd by, the most enthusiastic spirit
Every section of the parly is satisfied all per

uma.es, woo reprebeni uie great ana important j
principles, for the establishment of which re I
hav no long contended. And not only is our
party, ihe great Harrison party of 1840) united
upon i'Ir. Clay, but thousands of our former op
ponents have'also declared themselves in his ,
favor. The people recognize in him the cham-j
pion of ihe cause of America, and American'
Industry and Prosperity, and they will support
him, because he is ihe friend of the Tariff, of
(Protection, and of their beat interests. "
The Loco Convention.
The loco foco Convention was held at Balti
-more, on Monday last, but we have not vet re
jC'iy.'d official information of their doings. .
There can be no doubt, however, that Mr. Van
Buren, was nominated to be beaien, for Presi
jjjflVni, aliheuh a certain portion of his party
have u;ed every means to prevent it. Col. R.
M. Jofanhon, was in all probability nominated
for.Vice President. With such a team lo op
pose them, Clay and Frelinghuysen, wilJ not
have a very difficult task before them.
The Texas Trcnrty. '
The! United Stales Senate, was engaged
nearly erery day last week in discussing the
merits of Capt. Tyler's Treaty for the annexa
lion of Texas lo ibe Union. A number of able
speeches were made on both sides by Messrs.
Benton, Ohoate, Huntingdon, and Miller, against
the Treaty, and Messrs. McDufiie and Walker
in favor of it. The speakers against annexa
tion have placed the matter in such a light be
fore the Senate, that its advocates, have virtu
ally abandoned the Treaty, and Mr. McDuffie,
on Thursday last, gave notice that he would in
troduce a joint-resolution for the annexation of
Texas to this country. But this proposition
wj nt help the friends of the measure much.
Congress will not consent to annexation, in any
form, under existing circumstances. The ac
knowledgement by Mexico, of the Independ
ence of Texas must first be secured, before an
American Congress will take the responsibility
of approving the project.
More JDifficnIly.
The Loco Foco party, West of the Alleghe
ny mountains, impressed with a knowledge of
Gen. Markle's popularity, and Parson Muhlen
berg's unpopularity, hare proposed a Mr. Mi
chael Meyers, of Westmoreland county, as a
candidate for Gorernor, for whom the friends
of Francis R. Shunk are to cast their rotes.
Alas, the poor locos, find trouble in every di
rection. Their men seem to have thrown off
the leading strings altogether, with which they
were formerly kept in the traces. x
Fourth of July.
The anniversary of our National Independ
ence, is again fast approaching. If our citi
zens intend to make preparations for its proper
observance, now is the time to commence ac

A IVatiotmi Prize Banner.

Mr. Clay on Protection.
The Washington Correspondent of the Uni
ted Slates Gazette, a most irust worihv and re
spectable man, gires, in his recent letter, this
incident :
You will obserre that Mr. Charles J. Inger
soll has fell himself authorized to charge Mr.
Clay with running a race of repudiation of pro
tection wilh Mr. Van Buren. This is a serious
charge lo be made by one in Mr. Ingersoll's
position.
Mr. Clay was in lhe House of Representa
tives yesterday, when Mr. Ingersoll, coming up
and addressing him, Mr. Clay said, "Mr. In
gersoll, by what authority do you say that 1
have repudiated or abandoned ihe principle of
proiection V Mr. Ingersoll replied, " upon the
authority of a gentleman of integrity, a person
al friend of yours and a high larifl'man, who in
formed me ihat he had seen a letter written by
you, about the lime of the passage of lhe Com
promise Act, in which you agreed to give up
the principle of protection." Mr. Clay: "It
is a falsehood. My speeches at the time, my
speeches and lellers since, prove the conirary."
Mr. Ingersoll The gentleman who inform
ed me did not see the leiter, but receired his
information from one who had seen the letter,
and is a worthy friend of yours.
Mr. Clay Jew or Gentile, Turk or Chris
tian, present my compliments to him, and say
that the charge is utterly untrue, and tell him
to produce the letter.
The above is the substance, and as near as
can be recollected, the very words of ihe con
versation. Mr. Ingersoll has made the charge,
he must now produce the proof or retract, as I
donbt hoi he will. You will observe lhal he
relies on hearsay and second hand evidence,
and even lhal will fail him.
A New Counterfeit.
A new cotinierfeit ten dollar bill of ihe Wes
tern Bank, of Philadelphia, is in circulation,
lhe whole appearance of which is well calcula
ted to deceive. The engravin, however, will
not bear close examina'ion. ll is coarse and
incomplete particularly in the medallion head
on ihe left hand margin, and the ship between
the signatures of the officers. On comparing
lh one before us with a genuine bill, we found
ihe counterfeit nearly a sixieenih of an inch
wider ilian ihe genuine, and also slightly Ion

ILies.
The Washington 'Standard, nails to the conn
(er, two falsehoods that have been going' the
rounds of the Lncofoco presses in this Slate.
"Put him down with he," seems to be the
mono of Mr. Clay' opponents.' They tried
the same aine with Gen. Harrison : but their
success .should have taujjht them belter than to
attempt it with Mr. Clay. The Standard thus
brand's these lies :
The first is ihe forgery made by one Samuel
Medary, ediloi of lhe Oiiio Statesman, which
was brought into the House of Representatives
by Mr. Brown of Indiana, without at first know
ing it ro be such, and there branded as a far-
peril by Mr. While. That falsehood is the fol
lowing garbled pretended extract fr)ti the
speech of Mr. Clay in 181-2, reading thus:
" Carry out the principles of the Compromise
Act. Look to Revenue alone for the support of
Government. Do not raise the question of Pro
tection, which-1 had hoped had been put to
rest. I here is xo necessity for Protec
tion!!!" Mr. Clay never ottered the' above,, nor any
thing fairly convertible into it. What Mr. Clay
did say, was, ihat if we will return the 'public
laud proceeds lo the Slates, and look to duties
on imporis alone to pay the public debt ami
support the Government, levying those duties
by a wisely discriminating Tariff, there will be
no need of raising ihe question of Protection for
the sake oj Protection.
The oi her falsehood to which we allude, is
the following pretended extract from a speech
of VI r. Clay, alleged and certified by members
of Congress to have been found in the report of
the proceedings of Congress in lhe National
Inielligencer of ihe 17th February, 1 819 :
" If gentlemen w ill not allow us to have black
slaves they must let us have white ones ; Air we
cannot cut our firewood, and black our shoes, and
HAVE OUR WIVES A N D DA U G HTERS
WORK IN THE. KITCHEN."
What will honest men think when assured
that no such language can be found in the In
telligencer of that date, or any other ; and that
Mr. Clay never uttered such a sentiment in his
life. Who manufactured i his falsehood we
know no! ; hut its "odfathers; those who are
willing to become sponsors for it, are known.
and if they have not been so Ion? associated
with Locufocoism as to have lost all sense of
shame or power lo blush, we are Mire the lima
win come, ii it nas not, wtien ttiey win oa
ii -ri t t "ill
ashamud of iheir bantling, and blush at the sight
of their adopted child.
We notice these two libels merely to show
how those which fill the Locofoco press are
manufactured, nurtured, cherished, and adhored
to. io notice all would far exceed our limits.
From the National Intelligencer.
To the Editors: Col. Linn Boyd having re
cenily resuscitated the stale slander of bargain
and corruption between Messrs. Clay and Ad
ams, it was esteemed a duty to inquire whether
he believed it. His answer to the inquiry is
before the country. The public may have some
curiosity lo know what was Mr. fJoyd s opinion
upon this question when Mr. Clay was not a
candidate. The Honkinsville. Kv.. Gazette.
of the 1 1 tli instant, which is sent to. you, in re
viewing Mr. Boyd's course, has the following
sentence, viz :
"We assert most positively, that we can
prove by one of the most respectable citizens of
Hopkinsville, that Linn Boyd declared to him
that the charges preferred against Mr. Clay
were utterly false and groundless, and were got
ten up for mro political purposes. And we
defy Linn Boyd io deuv ihis fact."
This Gazelle was &hown to Mr. Boyd, and
llis attention called lo lhe above paragraph, that
nc migiu uenj u ai pm.nc.y as ne uau reuscj-
laJed the charge.
He not having thought prop -
er to do so, the favor is asked to insert this in
your paper, by yours, with respect,

integrity of the great Whig leader, they resort
10 the most unmanly and despicable assaults
upon his private character. In most cases
falsehood ia made to supply the lack of original
materials, and in all of ihcm, a little truth is
exaggerated and distorted 10 such a degree lhal
none can recognise it. Indeed the amount of
the impression attempted to ht conveyed by
some of ihe loco presses is briefly stated, that
Henry Clay has violated every commandment
in ihe Decalogue, and like the unjust Judge of
whom the good book speaks, fears neither Ged
nor man. Now it is for the sake of public
morals and the reputation of our country abroad
that we may regret these statements. As for
