We say, with the " Richmond Whig," if there be such men in our ranks, let them belong to which division they may, they are not Whigs at all they are. Clay men, or Taylor men, or Scott men. They go. for the man of their choice not for principles or measures. They may be zealous and loyal to. the individual they prefer, but Ibey have no devotion to the cause, of which each of those names is a synouyme. There; are not many such Individuals in the Whig ranks, and that.they are confined to a very few lo calities, we are satisfied. But the -notes of discord soanded.by these men, few in number as they inay be, are calculated to infect the whole party, and pa-l ralyze its exertions. We. invoke all these who have suffered Passion rather -than Reason to hold the helm, to reconsider their course and to retrace their steps. It is the part of sound policy to wait, at leasts until the Philadelphia Convention shall have made its nomination. What, if Mr. Clat, shall be the nominee, what benefit do his peculiar friends expect to result to him or to the Whig cause, by ex asperating and thereby dritmg from his support, those who, under existing circumstances, prefer the nominatioo of another individual, but who will uev- ertheless, in the event refered to, cheerfully support Mr. Clay? And, on the other hand, what do the nolens xohns friends of Gen. Taylor hope to gain, in the event of his nomination, by acrimonious as saults upon that individual, and upon his friends? In this quarrel about mere men, we confess we. feel no interest. We desire, above all things, the tri umph of our party,; We believe .that, with the re storation of harmony in our ranks, and the zeal and enthusiasm ' wbicb the cessation of this intestine strife would inspire, we may confidently .look, for ward to the overthrow of a dynasty, which, in our humble judgment, has inflicted as fatal wounds up- !y on his long and intimate connection ! on the Constitution wounds which must be imme- fcnty of Chatham.

WHIG UNANIMITY. We call the attention of the "Standard" to the Proceedings of the Whig Meeting in Halifax Coun ty, published in this paper, and ask it it can see any signs of dissatisfaction expressed therein. The friends of the venerable and sterling Whig, Colone' Andrew Jotner, pronounce tbe selection; of Mr. Manly, as the Whig Candidate for Governer, " a wise and prudent choice of an . unflinching," long tried, well-known and intelligent Whig," and for whose. -election they pledge themselves "not only cheerfully j but joyously to aid, at home, and wher ever else in the State, their "co-operation may have, effect , If the "Standard's" only hope of. success, is to. engend er jealousies, and. heart-burnings among tbe Whigs, it will find that it has undertaken a task which" will profit his party nothing, and but the more surely secure the success of the Whig party in the State, in August next MR. CLAY'S NEIGHBORS. A meeting of Mr. Clay's friends and neighbors was held at Lexington, on the 14th ult., to express their gratitude to his friends beyond the mountaius for the unexampled manifestations of respect, confi dence, and regard, extended to the illustrious; sage of Ashland, during his present visit to the North. Judge Robertson presided. Tbe meeting approved of Mr. Clay's passive "position in rcfereuce to the Presidency, neither seeking that distinction nor. pre maturely declining its honors," and expresses the hope that, with his accustomed patriotism and heroic devotion to his principles, he will maintain that posi tion until the W bigs of the Union through their Na tional Convention" shall have selected the candidate ; and, in the event of his being selected as the candi datey and acceptance, their belief that he " would be elected President of die U. States, and by his ad ministration, bless his country." The meeting dis approved of any public display on Mr. Clay's return home, and appointed a committee of his old anditricd friends, to communicate to him the proceedings, and to ' assure him that the Whigs of Fayette, and as they believe, the Whig party of Kentucky, cherish for him an unshaken and abiding confidence and respect, which official station could never increase, nor the hopeless deprivation of it ever diminish." The following is the resolution of thanks5 to their Eastern friends: : Resolved, That the neighbors of Henry Clay here assembled, avail themselves, with unfeigned satisfac tion, of the occasion of his daily expected return to his home, to make a public offering of their grateful acknowledgments, for the marked confidence an his devoted patriotism respect for his distinguished services, and admiration of his eminent abilities re cently mai tested, beyond the mountains' by his!coyn- tryuien of all classes, ages, and sexes, in conspicuous demonstrations spontaneously made with an enthu siasm and unanimity unsurpassed by the civic tri umph of any untitled citizen. others, should be present, He also wished to be in formed by the court, whetherany officer, separate from himself Maj. Gen. Pillow and Lt. Col. Dun can, were embraced in the order read by the J udge Advocate, as accused parties. Gen. S. did not have the slightest desire Jo embarrass or retard the pro ceedings of the court ; he said it would materially enlighten his path in the course he should deem pro per to pursue, if he could be informed of the impres sion of the court in that particular. ' The court wishing time for deliberation, the room was cleared for the space of half an hour, and upon 1 being re-opened, the following decision was ren , dered : '-That the conduct of Moj. Gen. Pillow, and Bvt. j Lt. CoL Duncan, will under the order be investiga ted, as far as their conduct is involved, in the char ges preferred against them by Maj. Gen. Scott, and also the Court will examine into the merits of the complaint of Brevet Maj. Gen. Worth against Maj Gen. Scott; and no other parties are before the court under any order known to the court The court also informed Maj. Gen. Scott that all parties to which the-order referred would be present in the court to morrow morning at the regular hour Of meeting. Gen. Scott her rose .and said : That the court might well conceive how much, how deeply, be had been, wounded bv tbe information thus commuurca' ted. Far distant from his country, his home ana his family, he found himself but a prisoner at large in the capital of the Mexican Republic; struck down by 'the supreme '-military, power from a high com manda command of some considerable elevation, of some considerable glory the highest, perhaps, in view of the numbers, valor and prowessof thearmy, h-ld by an American soldier since the days of Wash ington. Nor was this all.- He found himself placed as the chief criminal before the court, and was in formed that one of the parties against whom a spe cific charge was preferred by him-has been acquitted and rewarded before trial by the highest constitu tional military authority of our country.

To several individuals already in pos session of offices, the emoluments of which barely sufficed to support a widowed mother or some or phan sisters, he had actmflly pledged his word of honor that they should retain them. But politi cians soon persuaded him that promises were made to be broken. ' Accordingly, he not only gave him self the benefit of the doubt as to the expediency of fulfilling certain promises within the legitimate sphere of his own patronage, but actually arrogated to himself, for the first time in the history of our Government, the right' and privilege of dispensing the patronage of the various Departments under the the control of his Cabinet Ministers. Among those who were thus f doomed to poverty and disappoint ment, in order that the band of satraps, which sur round Mr. Polk's throne, should be rendered strong and efficient, were some, personal friends of Mr. Buchanan, who had the hardihood to rebel against this wanton violation of good faifh. Mr. Polk al ways famous for his hatred to those whom he has once injured, did not fail on this occasion to heap coals of fire upon his victim in the shape of obloquy and villification.

Her ald over the signature of " Galviensis," but vho is not even a citizen of the United States, to abuse Mr. Polk and ridicule his pretensions ; and to con fess the truth, " Galviensis" has been very effective in the performance f his task. The President, not to be behind hand-of -his Secretary of State, engaged the services of an "Observer" who indites clever impertinences for the " Ledger," and by means ofthe amusing caricatures of this powerful writer, Mr. Buchanan's prospects have been well nigh de molished even in his own State. I really pity Air. Buchanan : for the fact being now pretty well es tablished, that he has for a long time betr"ayed eve ry State secret, for the sake of supplying his pet " Galviepsis" with exclusive information, he will have no other alternative but to resign.
