There has teen more sickness on the ftoan- ed gentleman, in relntion to the Presiden tial Election, Untried as he was in obtain ing the nomination at the Harrisburg Con ventionyet, having strong support and a s'rong vote on that occasion, he has some cause to complain at now being cavalierly thrust aside by the Clique of Mr. Clay. General Scott reiuses to submit to Mr. Clay's pretentions, unh ssthey are confirm-, ed by a Whig Convention and Mr. Clay, who was foiled at Harrisburg. is unwilling to underg ) the ordeal of another Conven tion. Thus we gl The inducement which have been held out to Gw. Scoit 1 waive his claims by the douceur of the Vice Presidency, are positively and appa rently indignantly declined. Gen. Scott has no idea of playing second fiddle to the 'distinguished Statesman." He reftfs s all coalition, and if he enters the carhp ign at all, he will tight upon his own book. Rich.

Dear Sir: I hue not forgotten-the warm shake of the h ind you nave in the Pennsylvania Avenue, some time ago and' thank you sincerely lor the cordial letter just received. I am not a candidate for the Presidency or Vice Presidency, and can know no one as a candidate for either phce. until a na tional convention shall h;ive spoken. In deed, in the present sta'e of parlies, I deem it utterly unsafe for the Whig to place candidates be fore the people without a reg ular nomination. 1 have been in many indire-'t wavs, within seven months, operated upon with a view to induce me to consent lo be nam ed for the Vice Presidency on the ticket of a very distinguished statesman. I h ive in variably answered that ( had neither claims nor prciensions either to the Presi dency or Vice Presidency ; th.it I was quite indifferent to the fiist, and that nothing could induce me to think of the second place. But if nominated by a regular na tional convention, for the PnsiJcncy, that 1 should certainly accept the honor, if 1 got not a vote in the Union. Of course, with such nomination, there would be but one Democratic W'hig candidate in lhe field; and there certainly ought not to he two. Who that one may be, is quite in different to me; but be he who he mny of some hundred persons I can name he shall have my hearty prayers for his suc cess. In these few words I have given you my cr-ed and position. I never express mvself, in other terms, to any bodv; and all who know me will bear testimony to rny singleness and sincerity. 1 do not wish to appear in the newspa. rv.. , ... . .. rnij uvuiu m; run nave not the slightest objection that what I write ami say snouiu oe Known to all who desire to know my sentiment. Mv nrrtfpHsinnnl dntioa I. .j o me no lime lo travel except occasionally, and then o-.iy on such duties. An excursion into vino would be highly agreeable to me. With great respect and regard, 1 remain, my dear Sir, yours truly, WIN FIELD SCOTT. corner. iv 1 nr. L.., 1. .. .nrl,. lir. CIJSICI llita titany Turpentine, wheat, whiskey, per Tarboro'.
