For his response, bearina testimony f to the correct 'deportment and good moral character of Mr; Clay, Dr. Bascom has been denounced as a hypocriticaUiar, a pfirjured blasphemer, an inipious libeller, and" other most degrading and dishonoring accusations heaped upon hiirt. .We, his friends ' and neigfibuis - of all religious denominations, t therefore, feel called on. by considerations of (justice to a slandered and injured gentleman, to pionounce these charges grossly false and Lfiruelly unuat; without a shadow of founda tion; and do hereby bear the same test imony contained in his letter, as to the moral character of Mr. Clay, as far as we know and believe.

ture, by men who are neighbors of Mr. Clay, who have known htm and seen hira in ail mis walks, for years, and whom the Churches ol hiatown have trusted with their highest places. The.'act on their part is voluntary,and untinctured with political or religious partyism. They arc of all religious denominations, and of each political party.; There i3 no appeal, for a moral character, from such a tribunal. It is conclusive and final. We know, that in the hearts of the mass of mankind the principles of justice and truth predominate. It is a small portion only, whoi abandoniug, these cardinal principles, rely upon fraud and falsehood for the accomplishment of their de'signs, and by these, seek to delude arid seduce others to their support.

From the Louisville" Journal.- i . The Home Market Nothing cat better illustrate the importance of protecting manufactures than the" enhancement of the value of lands in the neighberhood of manufacturing establishment. The people iq and arouui manufacturing- villages : undeN stand this influence perfectly well; and they ate always in Favor ot the policy ol protection, through they may disagree as" to 'the Presidential candidates. J here jsrenoiree trade men in Pennsylvania or Massachusetts, through you find Polk men there; but these Polk men maintain that Folk is m lavor ot the tariff of 1842." There is not a doubt in our miuds that the real estate of the Union taken as a whole is worth two or thee times as much as a whole is worth two or .three times as much ash would be under the freetrade system. It is ooetring to build up, by ourcus:onj,manufaciuriug towns in England, 3,000 miles over the sea, and quite .another to cause them to spxiugup iu evry neighborhood in bur own country. England at the best,woud take of as only what provjious she might lack after consuming all tlio pro duce of her own soil, and she would take nothing hutstaple articles that will keepand hear transportation, suited meat and wheat. For milk, fruits, and garden vegetables, she would have to depend necessarily upon the home supply, and we should be withoui a market for-any of. these things. But it is hardly worth while to argue- this qnestion, such is ihe"uuanimily prevailing upon it amonfi the people It is. only necessary to satisfy the people that Polk is sgaiust protec- ;, . tUn. -T.t !, InrWTUlWi rcn'mnrav I.IV1I , UIIM Cioiiirrxaromi-aiianiriei's ought to be conclusive, i - '. - " These remarks were suggested by the fol lowing letter.

Joseph -Marshall, Esq:Deah Sib: So far fom thinking tho manulactories inimical to the farming interest here, l(have always considered them the main source of agricultural prosperity in this town. Since the establishment of manufactories J here, the price of land has . materially advn1 ced ; farms that wero hardly worth the expense ofcultivation are now among the most productive in the country; and I cousioct the immediate location of the factories in our midst a special " advantage, inasmuch as it furnishes a ready market fo our vegeta bles, fruit, and. other products, which would afford a less profit if transported a greater dis tance..- It is a common remark when the factories are In-a prosperous condition, that money is more plenty among the people in Stockport than iu any other town in the country; and this is easily understood, when it is known that over 125,000 a year is paid out by the factories for wages "a great deal of which is expended in the town in addition to which large sum3 are paid by them to the farmers for wood, lumber, wool, &c. ' - Yoq allude to my politcal associations I have always been a member of the Democratic party ; but there is a great differance between Mr. Van Buren, and opposition to the annexation ofTexa3, and Mr. Polk, "the two third rule, no protection and the immediate annexation of Texas, which., will tend at a futtirfl day towards the dismemberment of the Union. A refusal to suport Mr. Polk. I consider no abaudoment of principle, because his nomination was secured by his adherence to a question never before recognized by . the party, and the application of a rule, which, if carried out, would give the few the power over the many a principle not to be found m Mr. Jefferson's creed of Democracy. - -.- - . I. consider the alternatives we now. bavo are, to vote for Polk, free tradey and annexation, or forClav, a protective tariff, equal .rigb-'s, and constitutioal liberty; and whatev er our party lines hitherto have been, this js now the distinction, and I shall not hestilate in my choice." " .. Respectfully yours, E. BUTLER .From the Alton Telenraph." HORRID MURDER. One of the most mysterious and appalitig murders, that has ever came under our observation, occurred - on Wednesday of this week, in Greenrield jownship,oflhis county. The persons murdeied were, Frederic Henreicher, his sister Chiisiina, . and her daughic.r, Schirt Feufeld. The minderer was Adam Fe'ntVid, tlie" husband und fathor of the two latter. The whole of the parties resided some mouths in this'cily previous Jo removing to their. farm; were intelligent, industrious, respectable Germans, and in easy circumstances. It is believed, thai the murder was committed some time in the fore-
noon of the day above mentioned, at their res
idence, seven miles lrom this citv; andwas discovered in the following manner:-': i. Feufeld had, some time previous, purchas ed a wagon from Rodmager, the superintendent of the wagonmaker's shop .attached to the Penitentiary in this city. , On Wednesday, the 4th insl., " about eleven o'clock in the furedoonVFeufeld, carried, iu person, a note written in German, to E. Huntington, Esq., and requested him "to- deliver it to Rodmager, in this city On Thursday, Mr. Huntington brought the note in, jmd delivered it. - ."This note, when translated, whs as follows; .f-! "Dear'Feiestj Rodmager, - v i - -k t"I inform you that you should take away your wagon as quickly as "possible; tor my brother-in-law attacked me with a flail, and now ell has ended in deaths I could not do otherwise, or help myself., -; X--'-"To the Wagon maker, , - . . .; - "Rodmager, in the Penitentiary J'V v ' ' TVIr- Rodmager went to Feufeld's farm immediately J and tfpon examination found the body , of llenreiche lying, near a' stack of wLeat, where both had been at work getting out the wheafvwith his head mashed all lo pieces, evidently with a flail-handle; ' Rod: mager returned immediately to Upper Alton, and gave notice ot what he bad discovered to H. S. . Summers, Esq., the Coroner of - the county. Mr. Summers,"" in" company with Rodmager, je turned to the farm, and held an inquest' on Thursday evening,' th& 5th inst., on the bct'y of Henreichei' 'The jury returned for their verdict, that "the deceased had come to his death, by vio'ence; and that the body has fipon it the following marks and wounds,1 which this jury find to have been the cause of his death: Various blows upon the head, cutting through the skin in six places or more, literally mashing bis skull to pieces.: - And the juty further hnd, from the testimony of "all the. circumstances-of the case, that the said violence causmgsaid death, was committed by Adam Ftufeld." ,," Upon further examination,, Mr. Summers and those with him,' found in the cellar of the house where all the parties resided,"lhe remain's of Mis. Feufeld. and her daughtet a promising clii Id, about ten or twelve years of agec. A jury was empannAlled by the-Cor-oaer, to hold aa inquest on the bodies of the mother and daughter, -who-"returned,. as In the former case, that from all the tistimouy and circumstances the deceased had come to their death bv violence: and that A-dam Feufeld was 'the murderer Mrs. Feufcid had heen stabbed with a knife, twice in her right side, once in her abdomen, and once in
-Tbe daughter was stabbedJranary-otJme and l!hoiiihJMo41Ml
with the same insirumcuP, mree times in her left side, and twice in her neck. Feufeld immediately, as is supposed, fled; and up to the time of this writing, (Friday afternoon bept. Oth,) " nothing, whatever, has been heard of him. The bodies were decently laid out by the Coroner, and buried with that respect due to the circumstances- of the deceased. " . " -' . ' - During the whole time the parties lived in this city, there was nothing like animosity or ill feeling existing between"" them. Nor do any of the people of tho neighborhood where they have lately resided knowof their having had any quarrel or disturbance what ever. Mrs. v euleld and liennche were brother and sister. . What was the cause that led to this fiendish and unparalled murder, is of course, involved in doubt and uncertain ty. "Those acquainted with the parties imagine that 'Feuftjld had disebvered an im proper intamacy, real or supposed, existing between his wife and her own brother, and that, stung to madness, he committed the fearful crime of putting to death his wife and child, and his wife's brother. To us, this appears almost impossible, nor would we for a morment give credence to such a supposition, could any other motive on. earth be discovered for a deed so altrocious. Feufeld has always appeared to be . an affectionate husband and father; and nothing but utter despair could have driven him to the commission of this awful crime. The property of the deceased has. been taken into possession. by the Coroner, there to await the action of the law. ,. - - Feufeid is believed to.be about thirty-five years of age, of middle height, l but, hea'j built, dark completion, small eyes, .high cheek bones, somewhat bald on the top of his head; and speaks German only, or but few words of English.

Sia: Will you permit an Irishman, who has only very recently arrived in America, to occupy a little space in your valuable paper, on a subject which,' at the. present important national crisis, seem3 to him appropriate? Long as I can remember any thing, f rememoer.ine name oi tins great coniinent witn admiration ; aud small as my education has been I have acquired a pretly fair knowledge of its early discovery aud history-; of the and great events of the Revolution and the late war later still,- some of the principal feathers-in American history -here been Tamilliar to me, as also, the names of its most distinguished men, of all parties, from Washington to the 11.411 who at present occupies, so much the minds ol "the American -people, and who stands so jusvly high in the estimation of tho first men in Europe", I mean HENRY CLAY. However, although I possessed, as I before said, some knowledge of the great outlines, 1 knew nothing of! lie details. I admired America, nd American institutions, because -of their democracy, and previous to my arrival here, I never doubled but that those who styled themselves democrats .were the true friends of their native or ad-
opted land, and of the American people. In liko manner I tak.3 it ' the majority of ray countrymen have believed and have been mistaken, or deceived. Ground to the dust in the home of their fathers by the aristoc
racy of England and Ireland, the name of democrat had a charm easily to enlist them in the i-anksof tpe Loc'ofocosj and therefore it is', as' I have heenIuformed,and from my own knowledge believe, a vast number of the Irish electors in America st ill cling to that pajrty because of the name, and because of their antipathy to the aristocratic institu tions of the Old Country. , Such being my impressions previous to landmginthis country, you can scarcely credit how much I have been disappointed,subsequunt thereio,immediately that I begin to read and converse, and understand the real nature of the fact3";1 the mome. t l ascertained that the prinipies of Clay were tor the protcctioriol native industry I bethought me of my own unhappy country ,and of that darliug scheme of CCon? nell, viz; Home or Irish manufacture.- It has eyer been - the object of England to crush all attempts on the part of Ireland to establish manufactures in that country, their policy always being to ' reserve, and ? retain Ireland ashergranarj to supply Great .Britain with wheat and flour, and beef, and pork Every' irshman knows this plicy has kept Ireland tn the most impoverished state bles sed with a sou and climate as favorable as any in; the world, with a population as indus trious, as any to be found, yet out .ot . that population amounting. to yjUOU.UOO oiinhab Hants, it has been ascertained that "there are 3,000,000 of pauper?, thai ts' to , say 3,000,000 livin on the charity ot those scarcely removed a degree licno pauperism themseves, O'Connell, and all the other popu.'ar men in Ireland, have long since tured their attention to this state of things, and" have repeatedly inculcated the .necessity of purchasing only goods of "Irish manufacture," ; at whatever price;-but in vain. England is too potent and too rich, and Ireland cannot enact any protective laws, or in "other words, establish a tariff.. "Americans have the rower,V I, for one, trust they have also tho-wi!l to protect their own coun:rymcn,by enacting such laws as will enable Americans'UiSitT compete Jn their own country to the granary alone, of any foreign country. v s 1 . . I need not, Mr.-Editor, remind you of he many examples in history, ancient aud modern, of the evils resulting to a nation devoted to agricultural pursuits alone. .Ireland is oue instance Sicily is also another and a merhortable one. A3 long as the' Roman Empire existed the latter country was the one ortne" most fruitful islands an the world, producing tnexaoslible' crops of wheat, &c, the population were, and continued to be,the poorest and most degraded in the then civilized world. . . . - . If this letter should "meet the eyes of any of my countrymen, now citizens of this great Republic, and advocates for Polk and Fuee Trade, perhaps if it does not convince, it may-c'atise some of them to reflect' on the true' nature of the course they are pursuing.
