COUNTS

lleary Clay's Oplaleas oa Slavery Testitaemy of Mr. GMetiagc In answer to a friend, who inquire what were "the view of the late Hon. Henry Clay upon the subject of American Slavery, especially the powers and duties of our General Government in resai-d to it; as held by him in 1844." Hon Joshua B. Giddings replies (after some preliminary remarks as to his personal intercourse with Mr. Clay, Sec.,) as follows: You will recollect my own resolutions presented to the House of Representatives. They were in direct conflict with ; those of the Senate: they denied the right of the Federal Government to invoke the people of the Free Slates in the crime or disgrace of sustaining a "traffic in slaves." I need not remind you that I was publicly censured and driven fiom my seat for thus asserting our constitutional rights. I refer to these facts, for the purpose of saying that Mr. Clay sustained my right to express my views; he even declared them correct. He was in tin Hall of Representatives when the final vote was taken, and the outrage consummated. As I left the body, I met Mr. Clay near the door. He extended his hand to take leave of me. 1 approved my course, and encouraged me. I was passing through 'he most trying scene of my life, and I shall not soon forget the encouragement he lent me. The National Intelligencer slso asserted my rights and ably maintained them. The venerable editor ol that paper still lives, and mav recollect the circumstance, but I soeak rom information when 1 sy Mr. Gales con j . sulted with Mr. Clay in regard to his course, and ac'e l with the full approbation of that distinguished statesman. I returned to Washington after an absence of five weeks, and had a more free interchange of views with Mr. Clay than before. In private conversation he spoke of his firm i hostility to the extension of slavery, which j he afterwards expressed publicly in the SenI ate. I then understood him to hold that j Congres possessed no constitutional author- ' ity to involve the people of the Free States in the support oi mat institution. m as Mr. Calhoun and other Southern men now demanded that the nation should support the slave trade and slavery, Mr. Clay appeared more delicate on this point. In the summer and Autumn of 1842 I wrote ten frhort essays upon the relation of tha Federal Government to the institution of Slavery. They were prepared with some j care, and were first published in the Western i Reserve Chronicle, over the signature of j "Pacificus;" they were republished in puroph1 let form in Washington, and in some of the j I Free States. They took the most decided ! ' ground against all efforts to involve the peo- j j pie of the Free States or the Federal Gov- , I ernment in the support of Slavery, or the i j slave trade, or in the rocapture of fugitive j slaves. On this last point I admitted that Consrress iniaht pass laws prohibiting the people of the Free States from aiding fugitives to escape, but denied the power of the Federal Government to prohibit us from feeding the hungry, or clothing ihe naked, or instructing the ignorant. In short, those essays dtclate Slavery to be a State institution, dependent entirely on State enactments. That H it be maintained it must be by the State in which it existed, and not by the Federal Government. Mr. Clay fully approved these doctrines, declared them to be the doctrines of the Constitution, by which this Government must be maintained if it be perpetuated. He so said to Nonheru men and to Southern men. In April, 1844, Mr. Clay made a speech at Raleigh, North Carolina, at the close of which he stated a synopsis oi Whig faith, declaring that it was one of the principles of the Whig party "that each State should sustain or abolish its own jteculiar institutions." I warmly sustained Mr. Clay for the Pres i 'encv ir1344, and so did our venerable friend Mr. Adams. In all my speeches I stated his doctrines were to leave that institution entirely with the States in which it existed, and separate the federal government aud the people of the Free States from all support of it. An edition of his lttleigh speech w as published in Kentucky, leaving out his synopsis of Whig faith. I was told Mr. Clay did not intend to commit himself to the doctrines which 1 imputed to him. I at once wrote to Mr. Clay, stating what was said. He replied, saying the omission was through inadvertence, without his knowledge, and that he would set the matter right at an ear ly day. Accordingly he soon published his letter to tha Lexington Observer, using the very emphatic language, that "the continuance, the maictainance, the existence of slavery an ust depend exclusively npon the power and authority of the States in which it exists." This full, this ucequivocal exclusion of the Federal Government Irom all support of slavery, and making that institution to depend entirely upon the power and authority i ot the States in which it exists, was perfectly satisfactory to me.then and now constitutes the basis of our Republican platform. I supported Mr. Clay for the Presidency. The Liliertv psrty opposed him; at least many of them did. Our old men wnl recollect that Judge King, the leader of that party, challenged me to discuss the propriety of sustaining Mr. Clay. We met at Bloomfield, and those who were present will recollect that Judge King admitted that Mr. Clay was pledged to tha doctrines wtnen 1 main tained, but insisted that as Mr. Clay was a slaveholder, be would not carry out those doctrines if elected; and I may add that except for Mr. Clay's letters upon the annexa tion of Texas, written apparently to ootain Southern support, he would have been elected, I yet believe, would faithfully have redeemed his pledges thus distinctly and emphatically given. He was defeated, but I am not aware that It changed his views at that time. On the comrry I think, in a speech at Lexington in 1SS, he repealed the same doctrines which he had put forth in 1S44. and in 1S50 he went with that portion of the whig party who maintained the compromise measures. He died a Whig, and the Whig party may be said to have died with him. For many yearn I had been ardeatly attached to both, was sustained by both, and only separated from them when I felt that dnty constrained me to do so. Very respoctfalty, J. R. G.UDIXGS. Marshall W.

A few days since a boarding house keeper in Chicago named Donnellao sued Mr. N. B. Bateham. Chairman of the Democratic Executive Committee for toe board of eighteen men who had been imported to carry t c .ot Wii.n latelv held there. The fol...v j lowing is an extract from the testimony of I Dr. A. Hahn, a Democratic candidate tor I AM th Third Ward. Ruad it and ' see how the Democrats try to carry elections: ! Dr. J. A. Hahn sworn: 1 wrnt to see ' Donnellan. at the request of Bateham, on the 2d Friday before the election, and asked him what would be his charge for boarding the men? Pjnnellan said he wouldn't take h-ss than his regular price, 5J cents per day. Bateham had directed me to get a boarding ! place for IS or 20 men. Donneilan asked ine whom he should l iok to for his pay? I told him Bateham was responsible for the bill. I then went to Bateham and told him that the price would be 50 cents per day. Bateham replied that it was more than they I were paving for loard in other parts of -the 'city, but he supposed it must be paid. ! Cross examinaiion: Btteham told meat the second interview that he had one hnnidred men to be distributed in the 1st, 2d and i.'U Wards, and if we wanted any of them in 'i the third we could have them by finding a ; place for them to bord.

During the sitting of a court in Connecticut', not long ago, on a very cold evening a crowd of lawyers had collected round the open fire that biased cheerfully on the hearth in the bar room, when a traveler entered, benumbed with cold; but no one moved to give him room to warm his shins, so he leaned back against the wall in the back part of the room Presently a smart young limb of the law addressed him, and the following dialogue took p!ace: You look like a traveller?" -Wall. I suppose I am; I came all the way from Wisconsin afoot, at any rt'e." "From Wisconsin! What a distance to come on one pair of legs!" "Wall, I done it, any now.

Scott remarked to the jury, if they failed to convict, and thus encouraged these abo lition emissaries, it would not be long until our fair land would be deluged in blood. The darkness of midnight would ba lighted up with our burning buildings to see the massacred bodies of our wives and children, and that the sun would rise ere long upon dead bodies of slave holders with their throats cut. This eloquent touch electrified the court-room; and brought down npon the prisoner such a torrent of indignant looks that he seemed to sink. The State called its witnesses, J. II. Pearce, Dan. Briles, Jacob Briles, William Yates, Jas. Sluder, and Mahala Sluder, and Thos. Dougan, and a number of others. John H. Pearce testified that he had known the defendant some two years. That he bought the Helper's book from him, paid one dollar for it. Defendant recommended it as a good book; had heard him preach often. Daniel and Jacob Briles testified that they had known the defendant some two years, aud that they each bought a Helper book from him, and that the defendant recommended it as a good book. William Yates has known 'he defendant some three years, and had bought a book some two years ago from defendant, which lie recommended to be a good book. James Sluder wa present and saw defendant sell to William Yates a book, which he told him to be careful with, tor it contained enough to whip a man's back. Mahala Slud er was also present when defendant sold to Yates the book. Understood the defendant to say to Yates to be careful of it, for it contained enough to whip his back, if they were mean enough to do it. The defendant's counsel attacked the character of witnesses, Jaaies Sluder and wife Mahala, but they were triumphantly sustained as being worthy of all credit. The State here stopped the case, as did ti e defendant also. Mr. Gorrell opened the defense in a speech of some two hours ljngth; complained of the fierce speech of Mr. Scott; said there might be some objsctionable sentiments in the book; called the statute, under which defendant was indicted, rigorous, as having been written in blood, and many other such cuts atojr laws. I think his client cannot complain of him. Next came Mr. Solicitor Settle, in his dignified, manly bearing, with a speech which was thrillingly eloquent and calculated to do much good to thoso who had been misguided by this bad man. Worth, as we'l as convincing to the jury. Then came McLean with his thunderbolt of reason, and keen arrows of sarcasm, that shook and made old Belshazzar tremble. Then the closing speech was made by Mr. Moreheal, who acquitted himself in such a manner as to leave no just grounds of complaint from his client. His Honor then gave a clear aud impartial charge and the iarv retired at half after eleven o clock, and brought in a at four o'clock Saturday Worth was sentenced to imprisonment. verdict of guilty morning. Mr. twelve months lThe Tribune siys that Mr. Surveyor Hart of New York, has fallen heir to an es tate under the following romantic circum-j stances: Years ago, when in Paris, a lovely ; Jewess became enamored with him. but he did not return the passion. When he came back to New York, he still remained the ' object of her tender recollections, which wasi shown by her sending him, on the several annual feast days of her ancient faith, alcable presents sweet mementoes which -only the delicate taste of woman knows how to summon up. Every feast of the Passover, j as well as every ether Mosaic day of mark, ' accordingly there were dispatched to that city, sentimental objects of art and verfu; and neither distance, time, nor the absence J of a reciprocity treaty, eould abate her love , the least. As she was faithful in life,; so was she true in death; for the news arrived that the poor lady had gone to the belter world, and dying, bequeathed to Mr. Hart an estate. It was legally necessary for him to go abroad to look after it, and. aecor- ? dingly. he sailed on Saturday for Hamburgh, where the estate lies. High Pbick fob Mcles. Mr. Wo. Ferguson, of this county, a few days ago, sold to Mr. Franklin Foid. also of this county, fifty-five mule colts, yearlings this spring, for 87.00O, or Sl?7 27 per head. This is the largest price we have ever known to be paid for mules of this age in so large a lot. We are told that 53 of the colts cost Mr. Ferguson, last fall, t95 a head on the average The other two cost him. one 8160 and the other $140. Of course, they are an extraordinary lot of stock.

As a gentleman, a scholar, and a statesman, his reputation is enviable, and so deep a hold has he taken npon the popular mind in the beautiful State of his adoption, that he just missed being put upon the track for the office of its Governor at the period of its last election. ty There was an extraordinary scene recently in the Territorial Legislature of New Mexico. At the last session a law was passed protecting slave property in the Territory. Judge Keithley, the Speaker of tha House, introduced a bill repealing this law. A debate ensued, and the bill was laid on the table till the next day. In the mean time, the news spread like wildfire all over Santa Fe, and the members were summoned in hot haste. The following morning, on entering the House the Speaker was handed a copy ol the proceedings of a Committee appointed by the members of the House, the substance of which was that they could never consent to have any person preside over them who could dare to intrtiduce so anti-Democratic a bill-before such a high-toned National Democratic House of Representative; and, in pursuance of instructions received at .he caucus t.i i .i. ....:..., ;-i, nr. ""..it.,.. ;.fr... duced a resolution declaring the Speaker s chair vacant; and, after considerable delay in excusing members from voting, the resolution was carried in the affirmative. Mr. Culler was elected to the vacant seat, and immediately qualified as Speaker of the House. The object of the measure was to induce the belief that the people of New Mexico are favorable to Slavery, when really nothing is further from the truth. The existence of the law for the protection of slave property was hardly known to the members of ihe Legislature until the bill for its repeal was iutro duced. African Cotton Supply. We learn from the Boston Advertiser iliat the arrangements for a well preptred colony in ihe upland of Western Africa, are nearly completed. Two thousand pounds have been subscribed in

His snuffing customers consume but twenty-five pounds.

don Times being prominent in that discussion, and maintaining that the wife has been generally to blame. The Springfield Republican, adverting to tbi idea in connection with soma recent donustic events iu this country, has the following remarks: Iu a great many of these cases we should blame the wives less if we knew their secret history. It is their duty to "Buffer and be strong." and many are the wives who fulfil this hard duty, whose secret sorrow the world will never know. . Nay, the husband himself is often unconscious of the silent pain which ha might remove and would if he were aware of it. Many a husband thinks that he fulfills all the duties of the sacred relation, to whom the wife looks in vain for that intimate sympathy and affection which every woman requires. The life of woman's heart is love. She instinctively craves it, and is desolate without it. There must be in the real sacrament of matrimony a tenderness of love, a fondness, a mutual interchange of delicate and sensitive regard, which language fails to express, but which every man or woman who has truly loved instinctively understands and appreciates. ' With too many men this manifestation ot the tender sentiment ends with courtship, and marriage brings only cold respect and fidelity better a thousand times, of course, than un faithfulness and estrangement but not sa'isfying to the highest demands of the heart. The original fault often lies with the husband. The neglect of the husband is often the beginning of the evil. The husband is bound not only to love " but to "cherish" the wife. If she is left in poverty and desolation of heart to seek elsewhere the love her nature requires, let not the husband consider himself the innocent and injured party. lie may have been faithful, but ho should have been fond, and thus the love of the courtship and the honeymoon would have deepened and strengthened, as tho true pair "clomb the hill thegither," and there would have been no room there for aa interloper. A novel case of habeas corpus, in volving curious and important questions of law, was recently tried before Judge S. M. Moore of the Circuit Court, Covington, Ky. A resident of that city, named William Ross, a short time since, became enamored with his step-daughter, Margaret Coleman, who reciprocated his affections, and a marriage engagement was the consequence. But the affianced pair found that their relationship was among the degrees prohibited by the laws of Kentucky. But the river was easily passed, and once in Ohio the restraints of the law would be removed, marriage between blood relatives alone being prohibited in that State. They accordingly visited Cincinnati, were united iu matrimony, and returned home rejoicing. The frien Is of the parties, however, were dissatisfied with the nuptials, and determined to separate tham, Tha girl being a few months under 21 years of age the period of female majority in Kentucky and till the time of her marriage having been under the guardianship of a man named Hall, but who had resigned as tooa as that event had taken place, a guardian by the name of E!i 8ha Coleman, a relation of the lady's, was appointed for the occasion, and a writ of habeus corpus was sued on Rose, commanding him to produce his wile before Judge Moore, and show by what authority she was detained by him. The proper evidences of the marriage was produced, and the fact that she was more than eighteen years of aire, which eonine Judge sustained this position, nullified the marriage, and gve the lady into the custody of Mr. Coleman. Jure for ltKrot-lnr Nails. A correspondent of the Boston Medical and Sargical Journal, (Dr. N. Green, of Hartford, Conn.,) states that cauterization by hot tallow is an immediate cure for ingrowing nails. He says: The patient on whom I first tried this plan was a young lady, who had been unable to put on a shoe for several months, and decidedly the worst case that I had ever seen. 1 he disease had been one of long standing. The edge of the nail was deeply undermined, the granulations formed a hizh ridee. partlr covered with skis, and pus constantly oozed from tne root of the ntil. uhe whole toe was swollen and extremely tender and pain ful. My mode of proceeding was this: I . 1 a a put a very smau piece oi tallow in a spoon ad heated it over a lamp till it became verr bot dropped two op three drops between the Ba;j and the granulations. The effect was aimost magicai. rain ana tenderness were at once relieved, and in a few days the granulations were all gone, and the diseased parts dry and destitute of feeling, and the edge of the nail exposed so as to admit of being pared away without any inconvenience. Tha cure was complete, and the trouble never returned. , I have tried this plan repeatedly since, with the same satisfactory results. The operation causes hut little if any pain, if the talis properly heated. A repetition might in some cases be necesssary. although I bare never met with a case that did not yield lo one application. Admitting the theory of Dr. Lorinser to bw correct, the modus operandi is ve ry plainly to be seen. The liquid cau-U-ry insinuates itacif ia every interstice, under the nail, along the fistula into the nicer at the matrix of the nau, accompusiung in one mmBte without pain, all that cab be effected by the painful application of nitrate of silver for the painful application several week. . jpgf The pro slavery press are very fond of asking why a slaveholder baa not the right to carry -bis'property" wberevsvsr his huioess or his pleasure calls him.
