"Ominous."—The learned and Honorable James H. Cravens, in his letter to the Napoleon Whig Convention, announces in the first paragraph, that to have received the nomination of that convention would have been highly complimentary 'and ominous of success.' We agree with the gentleman in his statement. The term ominous, according to standard dictionaries, means inauspicious. Whether Cravens intended a cut severe at the convention for their ingratitude to himself, or unconsciously exhibited his ignorance of language, is a question for the grave consideration of the party. The thing should be settled. Call him out, Clarkson, call him out.—Lawrenceburg Reg.
