The Boston Morning Post exhibits the various phases, presented by Mr. Clay's four letters, upon Texas and attributes to him three faces. The Post had not then seen the two last letters recently published. He had seen the Raleigh letterand the two Alabama letters and the Washington letter but he had not seen the Ohio let ter, and the Indiana letter. We take the liberty, therefore, of enlarging the canvass, by adding The Last Face No. 4." "Now, by three-headed Janus, Nature has formed strange fellows in her time!" The Whig candidate for the Chief Ma gistracy of this Republic has four faces, with the features distinct and well defined; let those who doubt it look upon them : Northern Face No. 1. " 1 do not think that Texas ought to be re ceived into the Union as an integral part of it, in decided opDosition to the wishes of a con siderable and respectable portion of the confe deracy." The Raleigh Letter. Middle Face No. 2. " Personally, I could have no objection to the annexation of Texas. One of the Alabama Letters. Southern Face No. 3. "I have, however, no hesitation in saying, that far from having any personal objection to the annexation of lexas, 1 should be glad to see it." Ditto. The last North-Western Face No. 4. " I am opposed to immediate annexation. 1 am opposed to it whilst a war is raging be tween Texas and Mexico. And I should be opposed to it, at all times and under all cir cumstances, unless there was a degree of con currence among the States composing the Un ion, amounting to or approximating towards unanimity. Indiana Lelter, Sept. 19A. Now, what are we to make of all these revelations, but that Mr. Clay is making one of the most difficult games he ever had, to win and constantly shuffling the pack first to please the North, and then the South now listening to the complaints of his Southern friends, and pitching his pipe to suit their fastidious ears and then suiting his measure to the Northern whigs? The Abolitionists of Ohio and Indiana have, finally, the last pledge from his lips and to their fanaticism, and to his own ambition, he finally determines to sacri fice the annexation of Texas, and the wish es of the South. 44 Unanimity !" It can never be obtained and Daniel Webster himself has reason to declare, that he holds Mr. Clay bound to go against Texas and that he dare not violate his pledge. Richmond Enquirer. one, but they have not done it. Why not? If these Tracts are to be printed in New York for circulati on in the United States, with a view to defeat the election of Mr. Clay, as the Tariff papers would have it understood, one would think it was about time to give out the copy.' The Presi dential election will be over in about a month; the country is large, and there are about 3,000,000 voters. Unless the Lea guers move more energetically, they will arrive a day 4 after the Fair.' Finally, the Boston Chronicle (Abolition paper) offers to pay $5 for a London Times containing the pretended extract ; and the Morning News of this city increases the offer to a thousand pounds, payable by a draft on the British Gold Fund. Then why not produce the paper ? Echo answers, why not? 44 A silly pamphlet has just been issued in this city, without date or imprint, (the printer being evidently ashamed of his work,) which after quoting the said pre tended extract from the Times, which, as we said, is the only particle of evidence which goes to connect the London Anti- Corn League, or any other British Asso ciation, with our elections, adds : 44 4 So also the London Economist, another of the League newspapers. " Then follows a paragraph from the E conomist, which we published the other day for the benefit of the humbuggers, but which has no more connexion with the point to be proved, than B with a bull's foot. But what we were going to say, is this ; that the London Times is, and al vays has been bitterly opposed to the movements of the Anti-Corn Law League so much so, as are the TarifEtes of the United States. Like them, it is in favor of taxing one portion of the people for the benefit ot another ; like them, it resists with might and main, every attempt to a bate the injustice." fortune, and all his prospects in life, to a sense of duty, with engaging in a low po litical intrigue, is to charge him with a transgression for which such a man could have no motive. His real offence is, that he will not stand aside for Henry Clay. His friends have not thought fit to withdraw the nomination they have made. For this offence, he is to be pelted with abuse, until either his friends are induced to drop him, or he is induced to withdraw his name as a candi date. We are yet to see what is the effect of this new expedient of vituperation. There are now five papers lying before us, three in this state, and two in Massachusetts, si multaneously attacking Mf Birney. The abolitionists, as a class, are not easily mo ved from their purpose by censure, and we are much mistaken in their character if they yield now. If, however, they should allow themselves to be caught up and car ried over to the whig party by this vio lence, the year 1844 will be forever mem orable, as having seen one of the most re markable events in our political history, the Rape of the Abolitionists. UNREDEEMED PROMISES ! Here are some of the promises made by the whigs in 1840. They would appoint no member of Con gress to office. They would make no removals for o pinions sake. They would reduce the expenditures. They would pay off the national debt. They would separate the 4 purse and the sword' from the hand of the Executive. They would make a sound and uniform national currency. They would regulate the 4 exchanges.' They would raise the price of produce. They would increase the wages of labor.

We hasten to lay before our readers the following Important letter from Col. Rus sell P. McCofd to B. A. Reynolds, Esq., and, as the gentlemen occupy enviable positions in society, and are well known in this & the adjoining county of Lowndes, as well as the references which Col. Mc Cord has given, we are prepared at any moment to give further proof, should the unbelieving require it : CinLowvii.Lt, Oct. 5t 1844. To the Editors of the Dallas Gazette : You will oblige me by publishing the enclosed copy of a letter, which I have re cently received from Col. Russell P. Mc Cord, of Lowndes county. Would to God, it was in the hands of every man, from the Patapsco to the Gulf of Mexico! It exhi bits Mr. Clay in his true position, as a man totally destitute of character. But what shall we say of Col. Preston? He believed, in the year 1831, that the great object of Mr. Clay, in forcing the protective policy upon the country, was, to destroy the perpetuity of the Southern States he heard Mr. Clay make this de claration in Virginia; and now, with this foul and damning blot upon Mr. Clay, this man, Witt. C. Preston, is using every art and effort to induce the honest planters of the South to commit the suicidal act of voting for Henry Clay. Shame! Shame ! !

It is stated that the Mayor of Buffalo has issued a proclamation against pole raising Hi that city. From the N. Y. Plebeian. The British Gold Humbug. The following paragraph, said to he copied from the London Times, has been widely circulated through the Whig press in every section of the country as afford ing evidence to sustain the slanderous state- ment ot a mendacious federal print, in this city, that " nearly five hundred thou sand dollars have been subscribed by the British manufacturers during the last 12 months, for the dissemination of free trade doctrines in the United States "A subscription was recently opentd to raise funds to circulate free trade Tracts in foreign countries. About four hundred and forty thousand dollars were subscribed. Some of these Tracts are to be printed in New York, for circulation in the United States.' That this pretended extract from the London Times is a sheer fabrication of the Roorback stamp, got up by the Fede ral organ which first gave it publicity here is fully established by the subjoined article relative to the matter, which we copy from yesterday s Journal of Commerce : " We receive the London Times regu larly, but have never seen any such para graph in its columns. The Times would not use the term dollars in reference to subscriptions made in England, but pounds. The wording of the paragraph would lead one to suppose that $440,000 were sub scribed, when and where the subscription was opened; or at any rate, in the course of a few days ; whereas, if such an amount was raised at all, it was the work of nearly a year. The last anniversary of the Anti Corn Law league of which we have an ac count, was held in London on the 28th of September, 1843. The receipts of the previous year were stated at 52,290; and the expenditures d647,814 ; all of which had been applied to the promotion of free trade princrples in Great Britain a re peal of the Corn Laws being the most pro minent object of the Association. At the aforesaid anniversary, it was announced that 100,000 would be required for the operations of the then ensuing year, and most or all of it has been in fact raised, but not in one day or month, or in six months. This the London Times very well knew : but the manufacturer of the Times' paragraphs for the New York mar ket might not have been so well informed on the subject. Of all the papers which have quoted this pretended paragraph from the London Times, not one has mentioned the date of it. Why not? Again, the Times is made to say that ' some of these Tracts are to be printed in New York for circulation in the United States.' Where are they?

We do not recollect to have seen in our lives a more determined onset than the whigs are now making upon the abolitionists ; means the most vehement and violent, short of physi cal force, are used, the most passionate persuasions, the most unmeasured abuse are in turn resorted to the whigs are re solved to carry away the abolitionists bo dily, and plant them in their own party. If they succeed there will have been no for cible abduction in the history of the world to be compared to this. The Rape of Hel en, the Rape of Ganymede, the Rape of the Sabines will be nothing compared to this modern Rape ot the Abolitionists. The office of attempting to persuade the abolitionists to vote for Henry Clay has been principally discharged by his relative, Cassius M. Clay, within a year or two past, have acquired some credit among the abolitionists of the northern states, by ex pressing himself with great emphasis con cerning the evils of slavery, and the ne cessity of taking measures for its extinc tion. He is an enthusiast perhaps on that subject, but appears to be one of that class of enthusiasts, who are willing to make their enthusiasm serve some indirect pur pose. Accordingly he comes to the north to plead the cause of his relative Henry Clav. before the abolitionists. For this purpose he has stumped Ohio ; for this purpose he has crossed the state of New York, haranguing as he went, on the im portance of the success of Mr. Clay to the cause ot emancipation : lor tins purpose tie has held forth at numerous meetings in Massachusetts ; and we now learn from a whig paper before us, that on Wednesday le will hold forth at North Canaan, Con necticut. While Cassius M. Clay is busy in coax ing the abolitionists, the whig prints are occupied in abusing the candidate whom the abolitionists have nominated for the Presidency. If he can be put out of the way, if he can be rendered unpopular a- mong his party, a great step is gained ; H. Clay may succeed to the vacant place, and receive the abolition vote. The candidate of the abolitionists is James G. Birney, and upon him the whig journalists have fallen with a brutal ferocity. Mr. Birney, they tell us, is a loco foco in disguise ; he is a shuffler ; he is a double dealer ; he has entered into a conspiracy to betray the Liberty Party" to the democratic party. Of Mr. Birney, whatever may be tho't of the practicability of some of his views, no man whose heart is in the right place, can speak without high respect. He was an opulent slave holder in Kentucky, con nected with some of the most distinguish ed families of that state, and enjoying much personal popularity. His abhorrence of slavery led him to emancipate his slaves, and retire into voluntary poverty, and he is now settled upon a farm in Michigan, which he cultivates with the labor of his own hands.
