CONFIRMATION. The National Journal of the 12th inst. which is the organ of the Clay party in
this city, contains the following declaration: "We deliberately make the assertions that Mr. Clay cannot, ought not, and will not, be withdrawn to make way for any candidate." It declares that - "Beyond a question, Mr. Clay is the strongest candidate in the field." That Mr. Clay is the strongest candidate, excepting General Jackson, we do not doubt; and this belief, in connection with the declaration of the Journal that Mr. Clay "will not be withdrawn,"" conforms our impression that the managers who produced the nomination of Mr. Wirt, intended it only as the means of ultimately transferring the Anti-masons to Mr. Clay. It is incredible that the Clay men in the convetion intended to drop their strongest man, and equally incredible that they intended to run two cadidates. It must have been their oli.:U that Mr. Wirt should give v, ay to Mr. Clav. There are various other Clay papers,
whose lucubrations tend to the same conclusions. For the present, we content ourselves with giving the following extract from the Fredericklown Herald: "Mr. Wirt, it will be recollected, if the! delegate From Baltimore- to the" National Con" ventiuii which it to ussem: ie in that city in IK reiiiber ne.t. -To ihat Convention all eves are turned-1 and if it should prefer Mr. Clay to Mr Wirt, there are no a;ood reasons why L':c frierids of the.

Are that party in the shambles I Are they to be sold and transferred to the man who will do the most for Mr. Wirt ? Has Mr. Wirt avowed his convictions, and got the nomination of the Anti-masons, for such
a purpose? Will he now sell them to a-j

Whatever we may think of the Clay ir.en who produced Mr. Wirt" nomination, we can hardly believe that he accepted the favour of the Aati-m ions hut to betray them. But what are we to think of the following article conspicuouslj copied into the Intelligencer of yesterday? "The Globe may lie rilit when it anticipates the nomination of .Mr. WlUT, as Vice

The Augsburg Gazette, of the 24lh August, states that the Poles had been compelled to abandon their entrenchments at Blorris, and the Russians had advanced within live miles of Warsaw.
