Reasons

A writer n a Jackson pnper announccs that Mr. Lewis Reynolds, of Vevay, Inghatn County, will vote for Mr. Clay for the following reasons: "After íhe Baltimore conveníion placed be„ 'ore the public the name of James K. Polk, Texaa and her siaves, it convinced Deacon Reynolds that it was lus duty as an houest man, and a consistent abolitionist, to givo his support to Henry CJny instead of Jamns G. Birney, frotn the very factthat James G. Birney cannot be ekcted, although Mr. B. s his first clioice, but desirons in nll cases, of preventintr an increase of slavery, he selects Mr. Clay as his second choice. Mr. Clay with our present evils (s)every) is his choice, in preference to Jame9 K. Polk, our present slavery, and an additional number of three millions more siaves, with the di.'tgrace they will brmg upon our country. Deacon Reynolds is a member of the the Baptist Church, 8 a thinking1 man, weürhs conseqnences, and nscertoins the result as fur as possible, in all lis undertakings." We are not acqiainted with Deacon Reynolds, but we venture to predict that if he be the "thinking man" he is here represented, he will not vote for Mr. Clny at all, but for his "first choice, Mr. Birney". Should he vote for Mr. Clay, it will not help his clcclion one partido: for it is certain Mr. Cloy will not receive the electoral vote of Michigan, and the vote of Mr. R. will be truly "thrown away" if gjven for ihe Clay electors. It will not help Clay in the least; but his vote if given for Birney, would count towards keeping out Texas, and towards the advoncement of of Liberty principies. "Thinking" men thould not uverlook these considerations.
