 .Hr. Editor-I presume it would be inter esting to you, and many of your readers,to know the state of politics in Clark county, at this time The withdrawal of pr. Chap mar. seems to give tie wHgS some pleasure; but 1t does not discourage the Democrats at all. Gen. DREW, who, we hope, will conl- ply with the wishes of his friends in becom- ing candidate, was once citizen of our county. All his aeqaaintances here speak of him in the highest terms-all acknowledge him to bea man of talent, worth and integri- ty. H7e do not feel al'y loss in exchanging Dr. Caapmaa for Gen. DREW; although the Democrats of this county, so far as l have beenable 10 ascertain, were heretofore in favor of Chapman. to a man. know of but two of our citizens who say they will vote for Gen. Byrd, and they are both 1chigs. Not long since, saw an article in the Times and Advocate, purporting to be written by a citi- zen of this county, stating, in substance, that Gen. Byrd would get all the Democratic votes in this region That article is well suited to the paper in which 1t IS published, and like that paper, or rather like its editor, destitute of all truth We think we know the author of the article referred to; and we do not hesi- tate in saying that, although aetig, heis a Bgfd man, and well qualified to be disciple of the General; and, like his master, ready to do any thing, however unprincipled to car " his point.

 Each party of this county have two can didates to represent Us in our next legislature The Democrats have two farmers, and the Wings one lawyer, the other half lawyer and half farmer. The farmers, as might be eX- peeted, cannot use SO much sophistry, and ingenuity of argument, on the stump; nor have they half so much taste for humbEgging the people But hear no one say that they have less good sense or less patriotism than their cunning opponents The Wings here are loosing ground. l know of several very respectable Wings who say they cannot vote for Clay, since he is opposed to the annexa- ton of Texas. In fact this Is a question which disturBs and disconcerts the Whgs more than any thing else-The mere men ton of it either gives them the 'sblues,n or puts them out of humor. Some stare at you with a vacant gaze, others ridicule t as democratic hambuggery; while others pour forth volley of oaths. It gives them all a complaint called ''the long lace.n On the tarifand other questions, our whig brethren talk with great 0uency, so long as they can 'recollect the whig address; but when that runs outthey are as dry as chip. Unfortunately, little or nothing is said about the annexation of Texas, in this address, 1 think 1t advisa- bethat SabjRgs should write another address, or remodel the old one, and say something about Texas in 1t, if his fertile genius can in- vent little sophistry on that subject Some of our whigs, when had pushed on this sub iect, having no other resource, take refuge under the ample folds of Clay2s anti-annex- ation letter; but, being pursued hither, they find no resting place. And when told of the unsoHndness of that document, and the almost unparalleled corruption of its author, they, either by words or actions, ask 10 waive the subject.

 Yoars with true respect,
