 Lexington Reporter

 At Frankfort, the scat of government where the legislature of the State is in session, thi. notification is put out:

 "1he Hon. ". J. GrapeS and Col. Speed are to address the Clay club to-night Tht Colonel 1ciH sing some aew and stirrins wHIG soNGso

 From this it will be seen that Colone speed IS an ltlnerant song-singer and orator and will be enabled, by the hel p of the print ed Clay minstrel and the amateur minstrel he may find in different places, to get up cho russes to chant the praises of Clay whereve he may go. The honorable W. J. GRAVES who was the assistant of Colonel SPEED il this business at Frankfort, in the same hon orable gentleman for whom Mir. Clay wrot the challenge, and deputed the killing of MT Cllley, because he did not think the Cozone JAMES WATSON WEBB gentleman!

 But there is new feature introduced fo captivating fashionable voters ill this systen of debauch electioneering. Dancing is on of the elegances which is to give it the go a mong the beau monde-that is, cocKNEY DANDIEs, GALLANTs, and such LADIES a may think it decent and becoming to len, then persons for an electioneering frolic.- We find this in the Pennsylvanian

 "CoME LET US DANCE AND sINGn-Th, friends of MT. Clay in this city propose tc have ball on the 22d of February not ; ''big ball,o like that which was rolled through the streets in l840, but Terpsichorean bal on the light fantastic-so that dancing may be added to their musical vocalties, and tha the waltz and quadrille may become feature lnpolltics. This is all pleasant enough as part. of the machinery of the campaign, and it af lords all evidence of the progress of sublima ton to which we have before alluded. Coon ism ln 1S44 IS to be a much more elegan thing than 1t was in l840. Log-cabins, ci der-barrels, and hunting shirts are to be SUI perceded by white kids, chenille, and gliding Ever since Mir. Clay's letter in praise of tht virtues of Cologne water, there has been change ill the spirit of the dream The biz stick from Ashland has been lacquered ant adorned with roases the 1.-two coons from Allegheny" have been fitted with gold spec. tacles and now there is to be Henry Clay ball at five dollars ticket.

 What would the country have thought O General Washington if he had sought the pres Idency by running round the country in tht midst of the canvass for the presidency i he had sent out such men as Bear, hired tC cicouoHeel loI Hllii, Il He DdQ QeSpalcHe( poles and coons from Mount Vernon, to ge up disgraceful mummery to gather merce naries, under the cover of affected curiosity to receive rations and pay, and band together to be conveyed from place place, playing the part of pipe-layers; or if he had, through his partisans in Congress, abused the frank and the mails to scatter song-books over tht Union, to facilitate the operations of timer ant song-singers, and such reprobates as Bea concealing under the noise and revelry O song-singing and Reclamation, the purpose O deceiving the honest by faslehoods, and cor rupting by other means the wicked whom they would make subservient to the views 0 their political employers: If Washington hat done such things, 1t would have brought evel his glorious name into disgrace; done b, such men as MT. Clay and his followers, hi character may not suffer; but if done success fully, the once exalted character of the Amer ican people will be sadly degraded
