n+ The Wings of Amherst formed Clay
CEuB at Pedlar Mills some weeks since. In the
published report of their preliminary Commltee
we find the following passage:


"The future happiness and prosperity OF tne
nation the union of the States. and the PrFserVa-
ton of our civil and religious institutions mainly
depend upon the success of the Whlg cause


The preservation of our religious institutions,
we are told, depends upon the election Of Mr. Clay
He is to be placed at the head of the CHURCH,
as Welt as of the State, is he2 Is not Mr.. Clay a
gamblers So say those who have been on terms oi
intimacy with him. Is he not protane swearerF
To man who knows him at all will deny this
He, not long since, walked up to MIR. Speaker
Polk IN the House of Representatives: and SAID 10
him. " Go home God damn you-where you De-
long" On another occasion, he is SAID 10 nave
publicly called the Democrats ga set OF Damned
scampsh-and we have heard persons OF both po-
lnical parties speak of his habitual profanity
These habits, to say nothing of others OF which ne
has been accused, give him an irresistible claim
TO the confidence and support of the religious por'
ton of the community, do they not, Messrs Wings
of Amherst2


We dislike to refer in this manner to Mr. Gays
private character; but when an attempt is made tc
palm him off on the religious public as the main
hope ofthe Church as we'll as of the State, thai
public should be apprized of the manner in which
the religion -four blessed Redecmer is exempll
fled in his life and conduct.
