Clarke has assumed the mantle of the notorious and bye-gone Cyrus W. Weller. Fail ing in the attempt to convert to his own selfish purposes the late convention, like Weller, he is willing to thrust every fire-brand within his reach into the manaea of the democratic party. He will pay back by denunciation, if he can, the stroke that was laid upon him by the convention, and at* tack, as Weller did, in the Tunes and Advocate, •vary passaiamt member of the party who may happen to think him not the .Magnus Apmib Of the day. or indeed worthy of the (lightest considera tion. We look back to the files of the Times and Ad vocate and find that the same sort of filth was be stowed upon Borland when editor of the Banner, that we now receive from Clarke. Weller was a rank disorgantier and so is Clsrke, but the former has the advantage m the measure of disgrace.— Weller prostituted himself for the purpose of ele vating others—Clarke takes the same debasing means only to elevate himself. We will some day for the amusement of our readers, publish what Weller said of Borland, and bow closely, chang ing names, the Editor of the Intelligencer has fol lowed in his footsteps. gam Houston Par President. The Hartford 'Conn.) Tunes is out in favor of Sam Houston for President!

The Democracy of Cooaacticut are fix him to-dav, heart and hand. California rngitive slave Law, We learn from our California correspondent says the Memphis Appeal, that a fugitive slave law lias pawed the House, with a fair prospect of going through the Senate, which provides in substance, that aay person who may bring slaves into the 8taie in good faith, may be permitted to send them back in a specified time; and it makes it the duty of abends and other officers to aid in the execution of the law. The provisions of the act embrace all those who carried slaves into the State previous to its admission into the Union.

We bom before slladed to the cowse panned by this paver. Old remarked apoa tke position occupied by its afebtUout editor tad bit preaeat motive lot opposition to Urn will aad; ariab of a majority of the party. Gen. Clarke ia a mailman of large pretensions. He bat been aa aspirant too bag not to feel that hope deferred bare ticketed the heart. He aspir ed to the nomination for Congress, and flattered and fooled by public sentiment letters and other equally delusive testimony, was led to pat impli cit faith in the many declarations of bis great po pularity, aad consequence ia the State. Defeat | brought with it sorrow aad regret the more msuf I ferable as it was unexpected. It was more than ] a awn of mail soul could support—it drove his: from his friends and nts party—and has driven him to desperation. Revenge seem* to be the only passion that now j actuate* turn, aad to gratify this he turns hts en S mity against one who had no share—no lot or part . m his humiliating defeat, for Johnson had repeat ' edly declared he waa no aspirant for the honor i Clarke was aeekiag. No other reasons fur his op 1 position to the nominee can be found. Johnson, ; he is forced to confess, is of the same opinion. ■ which he professes ia politics, and has never been known to waver or hesitate in the discussion or maintainanee of republican principles. He is and has been for yean past known as s true snd faith ful exponent of the Democratic creed, nor has there ever existed the shadow of a doubt as to the ground he occupied. On this score, if Clarke is yet a Democrat there can be no ground of opposi tion. On the Southern question, Clarke has always acted with his friend Doctor Borland in op ! posing the compromise and resisting the aggression of the North. He cannot then, if he is consistent, honest, or just, make .'ohn.Wttw'Course the sub 1 ject of censure. Johnson spoke, wrote and voted j against the comprotmsr, and tens ahnyv /omul th in# duty at hit pmt. ^ He used every means and made every effort to defeat it, he could to no more. If Gen. Clarke has any objection it is of a character to frivolous as to render it unworthy of notice. The truth is, and it cannot be tonceafed, that the whole war fare is personal, ana the motive, envy. Johnson's fault is his popularity with the people, : hi* eminence as a statesman and his probity as a I man. This has ever been sufficient to make an enemy—a bitter, invompromisiug enemy of the selfish disorganiser of the Intelligencer. George W. Clarke has always been a disorganiser. He is ^ the chief agitator of that sectional spirit which ' has arrayed one portion of the party against the ; other. He has always teemed ambitious to be the leader of a section, to rise upon its strength and power and finally to rule into office the victor of his party. He however was individually for his own persona! advancement, and a few months back, the prospect which he so long and so fer vently wished for opened before hun. It was wbat he had^totled ami labored for years to achieve. He had abused the “family,’’ slandered and tra duced some of the most eminent man in the State, divided and distracted the Democratic party :n the west, and lowered the character of the Slate itself. This he had done and now it seemed at last as if he was to receive his reward for this ungenerous humilliating course. He submitted fits claims to the people, l'ubli i-senument-letters by arms full were manufactured—instructions were issued to his strikers, and every stone was turned, to induce the people to honor him. But ail was in vain, the party could not sacrifice itself so far as to place its : j standard in his hands. Johnson, though not desi- 1 [ ring the distinction was again triumphantly n :-mi 1 nated as the champion of the Democratic party. The Coalition between the Whig and Van Boren Intelligencer. We exposed last week what seemed to be a most ' decided union in sentiment and almost in Singuage the conspiracy between these two prints, for the settled purpose of defeating Col. R.'W. Johnson, land circling a Whig. Whereupon, Gen. Clarke becomes exceedingly wrathful, and showers upon us a terrible amount of insulting language, so of fensive indeed that we should prefer using our ; boot-toe by way of reply instead of our pen. 3ut j the personalities in which the editor chooses to in i dulge does not change the issue. He may invent , and the Whig may copy and d>7uh> to suit his taste and columns, but one fact will still be apparent : that a disorganiser has gone over to a Whig, or the Whig may be the dtetator of terms; and this is a matter with which no good democrat has a right to meddie. Like a pair of Mooiii ponut they puli togeth.-r so handsomely that it would be wrong to crack a whip over either. If they succeed in pulling down the Banner of Democracy in this State, aff we can say is that they are a strong j team. I The Ouachita Herald a lending Whig'paper in j the southern part of this State announces C'apt. j Preston in the followin' rigwjicmt manner. “ We take it for granted that Capt.

Both these officers hare invited scrutiny and investiga tion into their accountsbility to t he State, and acurn the insinuation, which the editor evidently bases upon wharwould have been his own eaae under similar cirvuaatances.

Pres ton i^/a gentleman we esteem highly, and regret that he is the chosen victim to be led to the ansr ■ of his party and offered up for a tarn Sice in a hope less. dead cause in this State.

Preston certainly must have fallen into a poetical vein when be allowed hi* imagina tion to run loose in » hope of success. Whs!! Arkansas send a whig to Congress! Madness rules not the hour here, and a straight jacket is requi < te for one with such a preposterous notion. But, perhaps, whtggenr has prepared what it conceives a certain charm to lurr democrats from their safe ty. That party has thrown ancient Arabia in the shade in Uve witturejof love potions. It has been but a short time since, that she charm of no party lured many democrats from the fold and elected a whig President. Fortner success in these mixtures has made that party so confident that they even at tempt tmpoas'ibililies. The democratic party has received a lesson severe enough never again to put the poisoned chalice to their lips, let wmggery present it never so temptingly. But what will be the guise that the present chirm will be covered' It will be I'-num. An attempt will be made to convince the people that no man is for the Union, unless he is a whig.— They will endeavor to convince the people that, democrats are for disunion because they dare at least clamor,for Southern rights to be held inviolate. An effort will be made to whip Southerners to yield every thing quietly, without murmuring even, or else be termed disunion men. We will watch how this new whig humbug works, and will give notes of its progress, if it does not die in its incep tion. Carr. A. Plait's Airnizw to rue 1. O. O.

A letter from H.

There are three Diamonds ex hi bled which are worth, according to the standard method of computing the value of Diamonds, at least Thir ty Millions of Dollars, and probably could be sold in a week for Tweniy Millions; i have seen but one of them as yet. and that stands so conspicu ously in the center of the Exhibition tnat few who enter can'help seeing it. And there are several miles of cases and lota of costly wares and fabrics exposed here, a good share of which as quite a* at tractive as the grea: Diamonds, and intrinsiealiy far more valuable.

The secession of South Carolina code when it may. need not produce any other dts- j motion of the withdrawal o: a single State. True, if the North acting through our Northern Anti Slavery President chooses. *i>e can have the , result very different. Nothing will he easier for Mr. Fillmore. .provided t’< nitres* cons.-nt,) than by. attempting to coerce South Carolina, to bring about civil war and the utter subversion of the l inen.— He may too. possibly bring on results, at Hie cm- , temptation ol which the mind shrinks back appal- j led with horror. If so, however, his, and his j counsellors, and hot confederate*, will bear the ! w:ck«M ieas and respons,thirty of such eonsequen ! cos. No blame can attach to South Carolina there- l for. Pbr in seceding she only exercises an ahso- | lute and unconditional right; forslie has the same ; right to go out of that she had to come into the Union. The guilt and blame for any evil conse I quenees springing from an attempt to subdue her, 1 will fall alone upon those ranking the attempt. j In one way, indeed, without any blame to the ' administration, the secession of South Carolina may result in the separation of the other Southern States and the d issolution of the Union. Red ased. as she wul be. from tb. oppressions of the General Government—saved from tire enormous duty, un j der the burthens of which the planting States have for years and years strugglgled. and lieen impover ished, for the benfit of a favored section, it is not unlikely that South Carolina, after secession, will. , ill a few years attain a degree of wealth which will i make her an exceedingly dangerous example to her ; neighborittg sisters sttu remaining m the laud of: bondage. Georgia. South Carolina, Virginia. Ala- ! bama, and other Southern States, will, it is quite probable, be led by her growing sreatness, to fol i low in her footsteps, and that the present Union , wrll be broken up, and a Southern Confederacy, with a perfecl harmony of interests among its Bicm bers, spring into being. Thus it is. we believe that, the North fear : and this «he would probably prevent, even at the hazard of a civil war. Break up the Union, and her gains from the existing pro tective tariff system are gone. Gram, according to her own statesmen, will grow in the streets of New York- And the wealth which makes her iner cbanls princes, will he transferred to Norfolk, and Charleston, and Savannah. The North then may be justifiable in making a great sacrifice and in in curring great danger, to keep South Carolina where rhe is. But to the Southern States, we think her movements matter of less importance, and her se cession a step of less hazard. They will watch her with concern truly, but her actio is not likely se riously to alfeet them. If she should be greatly benefitted by the change they can then consider whether they will follow her example; if, on the other hand, she should sutfec form her rashness, not being able to maintain an independent govern ment. her sister States have only to remain where they are, rejoicing m the benefits of our glorious U nion. We remark that it has not escaped the observa tion of the South Carolinians, that those roost bit terly hostile to that Bute are the same men who arc Boat opposed to her secession, and prouhesy most xmfidcnr.lv her ruin, as the conseq Hence thereof. It is therefore not believed that rBfse-pryptertx are nnosre ;-i their prediction*.
