By an arrival at Mobile informa
tion was received that the Mexican

its session perpetual and prohibited
the absence of any member under a
severe penalty. Its authoriry was
not generally acknowledged by the
provinces, who ceoiiuue to make
their own laws, levy Hieir own tax

and it was feared he would return

lieved that he could march with t
handful of men to the city of Mexi

state that it wot unsafe for a for

MR CLAY.
Wo cheerfully give place, as re
quested, to the following Expose on
the part ot Mr. Clay’s friends—
which has been transmitted to us,
from Washington, in me form of a
printed Circular lette-:
Richmond Enquirer.
Presidential lection.
Washington. M y ibth 1824.
The friends of Mr, CL iY adopt
ed him in consideration of political
principle, public service, aud dis
tinguished talent. Upon a full con
sultation, with a perfect knowledge
of the facts, and a just estimate of
a!! the probabilities connected with
the question, they now determine to
adhere to him steadily to the end.
It is due to him, to his numerous
supporters, and to the respectable
States by which he has been nomi
nated, to make this declaration.
They were prepared to make any
saorifi e, the country, the cause,
or tho occasion, might demand.
But his withdrawal uow oould pro
duce no insult, as his friends, in the
electoral vote, would divide; their
weight would be lost, and perhaps
increase the doubt and uncertainly.
The election must, in any and in e
very event that can he aittn.ipaied,
come into the House of Represent
atives.
He is now sustained by a weight
of influen. e equal to (hat of a y oth
cr candidate; a© has more personal
and political popularity, and they
believe can compete successfully
with any mao io the nation.
‘They now offer to the coosidera
lioo of the People the following
candid .statement of the relative
strength of the parties—rom which
they will he able to judge correctly
of the views herein taken. Ii is
useless to disguise or misrepresent
the facts. It is due to (he subject
aud die People to state the (ruth;
aod other means are disdained.
It is believed that Mr ADAMS
will have six States:—Maine, Mas
sachusetts, New Hampshire, Lh do
Island, Connecticut b Vermont, 51
Mr. CRAWFORD will have
three States;—Virginia, Norik
Carolina ard Georgia, 48
Gen. JACKSDN will have
four stales? Pennsylvania, Ten
nessee. Alabama & Mississippi, 47
Mr. CLAY will have six
slates: Ohio, Kentucky, India
na, Illinois, Missouri and Lou
isiana. 46
It is believed that New-York, N.
Jersey, Delaware, Maryland and
South Carolina, have given no de
cided iodieation, and that ju these
the question is entirely open. Mr.
Clay is known to have numerous
influential friends in each of these
stales II is chances are equal to a
ny, and superior to some 01 the can
didates.
They will not speculate upon the
probable votes of those Stales—; he
changes tbai may happen, the com
binations that may be formed, and
the events that may intervene.-
But, after the most dispassionate
1 eensideraiiou of the subject, they
are candidly of opinion that Mr.
Clay will be returned to the House
of Representatives. To the wisdom
oi that enlightened h<dv, if it be
unavoidable, they with confidence
t auburn ms claims.
J mortal >nig Hit* higne*l respect
for (lie “ther raodidates, llipy will
not indulge in a *y invidious compar
isons of their strength. Rjt it ma?
perhaps be assumed, (liar if from
any cause , Mr. Crawf.id shun
not receive (ho vote ofN e w Y.vk
if Gen. Jack not receive
the support of some of the doub’ful
slates—or if Mi. Adams should not
receive the vote of New Yrk lp.
Clay must ho r*VurjH*i-H?
without oaleultthug any of the eon
ti ’Uent or probable events that may
render that event certain.
If. contrary to all probability,
M ■. CJav should not he returned to
the House, bis friends, having dims
their duty, will he able by conceo*
(ration to oontrol the event—they
will hold in their hands the balance
—they will determine between tha
opposing ©onfiirtiiig interests, and
se ure to the country a republican
administration.
Under all (lie views taken, it is
determined (o reeomme and to his
friends to adhere to hi m sieadily~+
and to await with ©w fi'is*n**e aodpa#
tic nee Hie issue now pending befora
the people.
Progress of the Edwards*’ iff air.
The nurse pursued by
wards in relation (o his Hct-usaiioii
of Mr. Crawford, is singular, (ho*
not surprising. I, his \dd*e-, ho
made six pe.dfic ©barges Hgaiost
the Secretary of Ihe Treasury; am|
now, when he has been brought
here, to (19 con from cd with the
members of the Committee of In,
ve stigaiioo, he wishes to avoid j*
personal examination, on the ple%
that, of his owa knowledge, he know*
nothing to the disparagement of Me*
Crawford. How does this agrees
with the late declaration of M-\ Ed
wards, in his publication io the L<> u *
isviil© paper, on bis return to Wash
ington, where he says he could prove
more against the Secretary than ha
bad ju uiuii'od ? How does it
with common sense, Uiat an indi
vidual should bring forward a seiief
of barges, erimiuating an eminent
individual of ofli -ial misemnduet
and then represent that, of his
knowledge, he k mws nothing about
the matter? The Committee have*
ver v properly, refused their aseo|
to Mr. Edward’s request to he ex.
eused. tie is the informer— tho
accuser—the witness who is to
prove the allegations ia the Ad lresg
—and he has already received hit
share of what was expected to bo
produced by th© contemplated ruin
of the character of the Secretary of
(be Treasury, Let him, then, bo
subjected to personal examination*

scatter calumnies on paper; to mako
insinuations without responsibility.

Hte public will not be at a loss
to tind out tho motive of Mr. Ed*
wards, in publishing, from time tor

teudmg to firmness and candor, to*
gather with copies of spurious let
ters ot the late Receiver at Ed

as in (he summoning so many wit--
