Jour. LKTTKK TO MK. CLAY. New Haven, November 10, 1811. ?i:t: It is with much pleasure that we execute the duty assigned to us by the Whigs of this city, of transmitting to ym the enclosed proceedings of a meeting held bv them on the evening of the 1 1th inst.; but this pleasure is mingled with the deepest regret thai we cannot hail you, as we had fondly hoped, as President of these United States. The deplorable result of the late election has here, as every where, filled the h-jarts of your Whig friends with pain and mortification, and this feeling has not been confined to the voters onlv, but has extended itself through every age and condition of society. We were not aware, until we saw our anticipations of yuur success blighted, how strong a hold you had upon our afTVrtion: and we now feel that you are President in the hearts of a vast majority of the intel ligent and patriotic citizens of our country, where you can never be defeated, and where the poisoned shafts of calumny can never reach vou. Had you been callet to assume the responsibilities of the office of Chief Magistrate of the I nion, we feel sure that the most eminent success in the discharge of i:s duties could not have in creased vour fame, or led us to cherish anv warmer feelings than we now eniertain for your character and public services We are proud, sir, of our city for the vote she lias given you, which is larger than was ever given before to any candidate in a contested election; and we are proud of our Slate, that amid all the deceptions and slanders that have marked the course of our opponents throughout the late contest, she lie.s given you a majority worthy of her character and of the intelligence of her citizens. May your valuable life, dear sir, be spared :hrough many years, to bless the country you have so greatly honored, and whose interests in time of danger you have so often and so nobly upheld. We tender you, in behalf of your friends here, and of ourselves individually, our warmest regard for you and yours, and we trust that at an early day vou will find it convenient to visit New England, that you may receive from your friends here the enthusiastic greetings that are due to the nation's benefactor; for such in truth you are, and in o ir affections seeoud only to the Father of his Corxtry. Your obedient servants, P. S. OALPIN, JAMES F. BABCOCK. TWO'S K. TROWBRIDGE. Commit! ec. Hon. Henry Clay, Ashland. MR. CLAY'S ANSWER. Ashland, December IT, 1841. Gentlemen: 1 duly teceived your friendly letter transmitting the proceedings of a public meeting held in the city of New Haven in tespect to the late Presidential election. The patriotic spirit manifested m the whole of them is worthy of Connecticut, worthy of it renowned 6eat of learning, and worthy of the Whig cause. (

For the sentiments i;f attachment, confidence, and friendship towards myself, which they exhibit, and which Ton "so kindly reiterate in your letter, I offer the warm acknowledgements of a grateful heart. My obligations to Connecticut, and my friendly intercourse with many of her eminent eons during a long period ol lime, will be faithfully remembered while I continue to live. 1 tdiare with you, gentlemen, in regrets on account of the unexpected issue of the

recent election. My own personal con cern in it is entitled to very little consider ation, although 1 reflect no indifference in that respect. '1 he great importance of the event arises out of the respective prin ciples between the two parties, the conse quences to which it may lead, and the alleged means by which it was brought about, of which, however, I do not allow myself particularly to speak. The policy of the country in regard to the protection of American Industry, a few mouths ago seemed to be rapidly ac quiring a permanent and fixed character. The Southern and South-western portions "f the Union had been reproached at the North for want of sufficient interest and sympathy in its welfare. Yielding to the joint influence of their owu reflections and experience, the slave btates are fast sub scribing to the justice and expediency of a tariff for revenue, with discriminations for protection. At such an auspicious moment, instead of meeting the slave States and placing the principles of protection upon impregnihlo and durable ground, a sufficient number of the free States to be decisive of the contest, abandoned what was believed to be their own cherished policy, and have aided, if not in its total subversion, in exposing it to imminent hazard aud uncertainty. Discouragement ha? taken the place of confidence in the business of the country, enterprise is checked, and no one knows to what employment he can safely direct his exertion'. Instead of a constantly augment ing home matket, we are in danger of experiencing a decline at a time when the foreign market is absolutely glutted with American productions, cotton especially, which is now selling at a lower price than was ever before known. It is probably destined to fall still lower. The final and not distant result will be. especially if large importations shall be stimulated by low duties, a drain of the specie of the country, with all its train of terrihle con sequences, on which I have neither inclination nor time to dwell. If the cause of the Whigs had triumphed, the distribution of the proceeds of the sales of the public lands would have been secured, and that great National inherit ance would have been preserved"i"or the benefit of the present and future genera tions. I shall be most agreeably disappointed if it be not wasted in a few years by graduation and other projec sof alienation, leaving no traces of benefit behind. I could not touch upon other great mea: t i i .1 ures ot puoitc policy, wnun u was me purpose of the Whigs to establish, w ithout giving to this letter an unsuitable length Thev may be briefly stated to have aimed at the purity of the Government, the greater prosperity of the people, and addition al securities to their liberties and to the Union; and, withal, the preservation of the peace, the honor, and the good faith ol the nation. 1 he Wings were most anxious to avoid a foreign war, for the sake of acquiring a foreign tern tor v, which, under the circumstances of the acq.iisi tion, could not fail to produce domestic discord, and expose the character of the coun try, in the eves of an impartial world, to severe animadversion. Hut our opponents have prevailed in the late contest, and the Whig9 are, for the present, denied the satisfaction of carrying out their measures of national poli cy. Believing that they are indispensa hie to the welfare of the country, I am tin willing to relinquish the fond hope that they m iy be finally established, whether I live to witness that event or not. In the mean time those to whoso hands the ad ministration of public affairs is confid ed ought to have a fair trial. Let us indulge the anxious desire that the evils which we have apprehended may not be realized, that the peace ofour country may be undisturbed, its honor remain unsullied, and its prosperity remain unimpeded. To guaid, however, against adverse re sults, the resolutions ot the W higs of the city of New Haven steadfastly to adhere to the Whig cause and principles, is wise and patriotic. I should be most hrppy to visit once more New England, and especially New Haven, which has done me so much honor, by giving me, at the late election, the largest majority ever given by that city in a contested election. I shall embrace, with great pleasure, any opportunity, should any ever offer, to accent your obliging invitation. I tender to you, gentlemen, my cordial thanks for your friendly wishes and kind regards for me anil mine, and I hope that one and all of you may long live in health, happiness, and prosperity. I am, faithfully, your friend and ob't servant. II CLAY. .Messrs. P. S. Galpin, Ja9. F. Babcock, Thomas R. Trowbridge. LETTER TO MR. FRELINGHUYSEN. New Haven, Nov. 16, 144. Sir: In accordance with the vote of a. general meeting of this city, convened on the evening of the 14th inst., we herewith transmit to you a copy of the proceedings of that meeting. The Whigs of Connecticut although mortified and disappointed at the result of the late election, were never more united than at present, nor more determined to persevere in their effort3 to carry out those

gteat measures of public policy which they have adopted as their political creed, and on the success of which they believe the welfare of this country depends. Although deflated for the time, wc are not cast down. We know our own strength, and if we have not a majority of the legal voters, we have with us the great body of the intelligent, reflecting people of the Union, and under such circumstances we feel that

there is no reason for despondency. Such a party and such a cause must ultimately prevail. In assuring you at this time, when you are not before the public as a candidate for the office in which we hoped to have placed you the second only in the gift of the nation you cau have no reason to doubt that the respect and admiration which we entertain for you is for the man, and not for the candidate for the Vice Presidency. We beg you, for ourselves and in behalf of those whom we represent, to accept our best wishes for your health and happiness. Your obedient servants, P. S. GALPIN, JAMES F. BABCOCK, THOS. U. TROWBRIDGE. Committee. Hon. Theodore Frelinghuysen, N. Y. MR. FRELINGHUYSEN'S ANSWER. Nr.w York, December 3, 1814. Gentlemen: Your esteemed favor of the iGtli instant, enclosing a copy of the resolutions adopted at a meeting of th Whigs of New Haven on the 1 lth inst., was duly received by mail yesterday mom The terms and spirit of theso resolutions, gentlemen, are such as become the friends of a good cause, and evince a just estimate of the defeat which this cause has recently experienced. Right is not always triumphant, and disaster is often a profitable school for iu advocates. And while your ardent e lions to render a deserved tribute of nation d gratitude to Mr. Clay have failed of success, yet there remains to him the rich testimonals of the warm esteem, admiration, and gratitude of the Whig party of the United States, combining 'n amount of intelligence, wisdom, and virtue such a.9 no body of men in any country can surpass. For the kind manner iu which the meeting and you, gentlemen, are pleased to -peak of my relations to this subject. I tender my heartfelt thanks, aud am, with sincere respect your obedient servant.

Scarce can one take up a newspaper or periodical into his hand, but that the vaunted pretensions of some patent medicine

abundantly vouched tor the cure ot all Kinus oi diseases, strikes the eye. The public it is hoped. has abeady learned that these absurd statements in favor of select medicines, are a suro evidence i-f their quackerv.- and that there is not, nor can there be, a universal medicne, nor ami remedy that udil prove effectual in a great number of diseases! It would seem clear to common sense. that diseases of entirely different characters, should require different remedies for their removal. The invaluable medicine now offered to the public, makes no such pretensions; it is enough to claim for it a specifie operation, in the removal of the above frequent and distressing malady, in the treatment of which, its virtues are being established, in every new case of its use. II EWES' FEVER AND AGUE TONIC, consists of entirely vegetable ingrcdienis,and may be taken without the least degree oj wjttry to the constitution. Its operation is mild, and it leaves a most delighlfil flow of the animal spirits, after its oncration. TRY IT.' Our motto is 'JVy Cure, No Pay,' (if directions are followed.) and it is rerfectly harmless in its operation. Every bottle is accompanied bv full DI RECTIONS. To this might be added the certificate of hun dreds who have been cured by the us j of the Ton ic. and some cases of years standing, where all orher remedies had failed. In many places on the Mississippi, regular physicians have adopte i the use of the Tonic exclusively in the treatment of the Fever and Ague, as the only iure remedy tdr I he operation of the 1 onic is IMMEDIATE, hardly ever requiring the second dose. f l I i i i c a 1 c . This is to certifiy that my son, William, was afflicted with the Chills and Fevers for abot.t 12 months, using in the meanwhile every thing that we could hear of for that, disease, all to no effect, until we got of Mr. Hewes' fever and ague tonic medicine, which etFected a perfect cure on him in less than one week, and I do believe that it is the best medicine for that complaint that ever was introduced in this western country.

Under this view of the case: it would be quite sufficient for ordinary purpo-1 ses, for us to say that the high character of this magazine for literary and artitical merit will be properly sustained. Dut we are aware that the rapid and daz.ziing succession of novelties wliich we have brought forward within the last few years naturally excite a lively curiosity, and every subscribi-r is saying to himself WHAT WILL CODEY 00 NEXT? It is merely with a view to gratify this curiosity on the part of out . friends that we no proceed to enumerate some of the features of our next year's plan, promising, however, that the enumeration roust necessarily be partial and incomplete, from our invariable practice of seizing upon every Aec $ Brilliant form of Embellishment, the moment it presented itself, as well as securing the services of all the Popular, Lively and Piquant Writers, the moment their characters are distinctly developed and pronounced. The honor of bringing forward first rate genius into public notice and favor, and serving as a sort of prime-conductor to Electric Flashes, which send their light through the whole Union, has become quite habitual to the Lady's Book.

Our original idea of illustrating American history by VIEWS OF BATTLE GROUNDS. we aie still calmly persuing in a style that defies all competition. The not less brilliant idea of illustrating the HEROISM OF AMERICAN LADIES by a s-eries of engravings and nairatives, which will serve to place in their true light the patriot. ism, devotion and self-sacrifice of our female an. cestors in the revolutionary war, emphatically called the Heroic Age of America, is all original with us. Other incidents of revolutionary history will also furnish subjects for the embellishments of the coming year. Among the subjects already executed, are The Reception of tha Jews of Lexington Fight by Darley, Marion's Entertainment of the British Officer by White. Female Gallantry by Hubard, Count Donop's Monument by Hamilton, The Battle of Concord Bridge by Frankenstein, The Gemantown Battle-Ground by Russell Smith, The Storming of Red Bank Fort by Ha-nilton, Treuton Battle-Ground by Hamilton, with a large number of others, engaged but not yet sent in by the artists. Another new and striking feature we now propose for the first time in public, having had artists engaged for twelve mouths in woiking it out. Qj-Our readers will please note the date of the announcement of this feature. It will consist of Characteristic Slate Views, in which the peculiarities of Scenery, Costume and Customs of every State and Territory of the Union will be presented in succession. This idea will of course be claimed by others, but our readers will not forget to mark dates. In addition to all these advantages, the privilege of engraving the Premium Pictures of the Apollo Association will serve to form a Keystone to our splendid system of Embellishments. The public know our literary contributors well, for they have long been in the habit of recognizing them as the Leading Writers of America in Magazine Literature that literature vhich exacts from the ablest pens their most Piquant and Brilliant Contributions, at the same time that it condenses into n compact and pleasing form The Moral, the Useful and the Solid in Narrative, Sketch and Essay writing. Mezzotints! Mezzotints!! Mezzotints!!! It is only necessary to say that in this department we have Sartain, Sadd and Warner, and each of them has several plates in hand.

Our translators suffer nothing of merit and interest, which is suited to the design of the Lady's Book, in the Literature of Germany, France, Italy, and other countries of the European continent to escape them. Among many novel features in the literary way which are now in the course of preparation, for well-known reasons we choose to announce but one in thii connection, viz: The Border Legends of America, many of which have just reached us from the distant regions which were formerly the scenes of border wars and hunting expeditions, and wheie the exploits of the famous Indian killers and hunters still furnish themes for purely national Ballads, Songs, and Stories to their children and grandchildren by the win. tcrs fireside.

'Sf.ahs' Familt M ag a z i l' is a periodical whose object it is to collect, condense and systematize the great mass of standaid general knowledge, contained in works so numerous and voluminous as to be altogether bey o rid the reach of mankind in general; and thus collected and prepared, to place it, by its cheapness and comprehensiveness, within the acquisition of ALL.

In furtherance of this object, we invite our friends abroad to aid us, by communications and sketches of any thing remarkable, rare, or unique that may come under their observation; and we trust they will find ample remuneiation for their labor, in the consciousness of having added a quota to the sum total of intelligence which is so widely disseminated through the medium of Seaiis' Fa milt Maoaztse.
