MB. CLAY AT IMDIAHAPOUS. As we Intimated test week, it is now fully ascertained that Mr. CLAY cannot come to a -i Terre-Haute. In another column will be W found his letter in answer to one from a Committee of the Clay Club of this place. The a only chance now will be, to see this distingabbed individual at Indianapolis. *j ili be seen by a notice in another place 4 s. that a meeting of the Clay Club, and public .T A generally, i« called at the Court House on

Saturday, (this afternoon/) for the purpose of I appointing a delegation to proceed to IndianV-, apolis—and to make such other arrangements may be deemed necessary in reference to

SZJS Mr. CLAY'S visit to our State. We hope all will attend, and arrangements made for a glorious procession to I naiauapolis.

THE PROTEST.

Capt. TYLER seems fond of variety—at one tinwhe indulges Ws fancy ra the way of *rtSes--Thon he tries his hand on something in tfaTshape of Protest—What may come Mxt must^e left to aft abstraction.# to determine. The President Jias now takon it into bis head, that the Representatives of the people shall not only be denied the privilege of nassine such laws as to them may seem right and proper, but that they shall Especially refrain from intimating the slightest tfxpresston of disapprobation of any part of his conduct.

In another column will be found the Protest sent to the House of Representatives a day or two before the adjournment. This paper was sent to the House in consequence of a report made by a committee of that body in reference to the President's last veto. An Exchange says of the Protest, that it is, »undigirifted, uncalled for, inexcusable lachrymose in some parts, blustering in others, egotistical and reprehensible in all.'

Let all read it, together with the proceedings which took place in the House on its reception. It was promptly decided by a large vote that the President had no right to protest against a voto of the House-That such j.rotest was a breach of privilege and should not be entered on the journals of the House, Stc. Such a rebuke we should think ought to make a Tyler President a little more cautious future, and to inspire a little more respect for a Whig Congress.

LIFE OF HWCRY CLAY.—By an advertisement in to-day's paper, our readers will find that an opportunity is offered to procure the new work, the Life of Henry Clay, just published, on very reasonable terms, by appliestiorf to W. N. HALDBMAN of Louis4

The Whig members of Congress meta glorious reception in Philadelphia, on their return home: as will be seen by reference to an extract from the United States Gazette in another column. The Hon. B. W. I HOMPSON, of our own Dtftrici, tp# of the number thus honored. „,

I A communication over "A. B. C." an other column, will be found very interesting in relation to Wabash and Erie Canal mat-ters-canal lands—canal prospeets-^anal country, &c. The author is well qualified to judge of all those things about which he has written. dfrjfcfrPf

NEW ORLEANS.—Some of the papers in New Orleans seem unwilling to admit the existence of the yellow fever yet as an epidemic. The Bulletin of Sept. £d says

It will be seen by tbe Report of the Board of Health published in our paper to day, that 13 death* from yellow fever have occurred during the week. Some of our contemporaries look upon these as clearly ipdi* eating a« epidemic. We do not. We are not inclined to place an epidemic character upon deaths by fever until they amount to at least ton per diem. The above are not equal to two a day. The weather is s:ill balmy and «pr»aed to an epidemic.

HENRY CTLT IN PENNSYLVANIA. A great Whig meeting was held at Easton, Pa. on the 16th inst. Hon. Samuel Yoho was chosen Presidetit^ ^Tbe proceedings seem to have been marked by an ardent enthusiasm worthy of the spirit of 1840. A* E. Brown, Esq., from a Committee appointed for the purpose, reported a series of resolutions, the tenor of which may be known from the following:

Resolved* That in Henry Clay of Kentucky we recognizo the champion to whose hands our cause, and the caase of our suffering country, may be the most safely committed: That the 'Father of the American System* may well be called on for aid by the American People, when assaulted by their enemies, and deserted by those who were pledged in honor to lead and protect thom. That the oppressed may safely look for aid to him who was the first to move for the recognition of the Independence of the South American Republics: That the Democracy of our country may confidently rally under the banner of him who was thd first to rouse his countrymen to resist the aggressions of Great Britain, and to call •To arms' when the honor of our nation was assaulted—who by his matchless eloquence, refuted the arguments of those who would have purchased peace at the expense of national honor and who ultimately was one of the honored agent# through whom a successful war was terminated by an honorable peace. And that we can frith confidence commit tbe Government of the People to one whose whole life has been devoted to their service—who has ever proved that be loved bis country better than himseff and whose long experience, enlarged capacity and splendid talents will ably sustain hi& patriotic desire to promote.the welfare of the/* at large.

JUsoforrf, That we consider tbe cootinuance of John Tyler in the office of President of the United States, aa dmngertms to the liberties of ike people* and subversive of all those interests which His his especial duty to guard aod we request him, aa the oaly act by which he can entitle himself to any portion of the gratitude of tbe American people to resign hi* ofice, a place which he has shown himself wholly incompetent to filtwith safety to the people, or honor to himself. jfesofeerf, That we nominate HENRY CLAY for President, and JOHN DAVIS for Vice President, of the United States ia 1844, because we hare confidence ta their unwavering botifsty, and in their wisdom to discern and firmness to carry out the true priaeiplee of oar Government and because we helievtt tint under their administration the

have been augmented to Oear three thousand men. Little doubt is now entertained, that there will be in the course orrcx or eight weeks, as many laborers on the Ime Jiscan be advantageously employed and it is not surprising that they siiould flock to this work from every direction, when it is considered how much better the laboring classes can do here than in almost any other part of the U~ nited States at this time.

The health of the country is good there* being comparatively very few cases of sickness on the line and present indications of a change in the weather, induf^the belief, that in a few weeks perfect health, will again be restore&j^T^tpre never was a country abounding in a more abundant supply of bread stufls and provisions of every kind re(jlired for a public work. Here the indns-y-ious laborer, can get employment, and lib*, pral wi%es and if he is not paid in the repre\tentaiii9 of gold and silver, he receives that which will procure him all the necessaries of life, and if he choose, a farm, the noblest inheritance of a freeman, to which he may retire and spend his after life, in peace and pfenty, in the full enjoyment of every privilege of an American Citizen.

It is quite probable that one third of the lands will be rated at $2, per acre, and one fourth only, being required paid down, the balance in three equal annual instalments will be seen, that forty acres of land, can be secured for the small sum of twenty dollars: less than the wages of two months labor.

It is probable that by the middle of October next, one third of the whole amount of work embraced in the present letting will have "been completed and no doubt is entertained, should unforseen difficulties not ariser that the entire division extending from Lafayette to Coal creek, embracing ninety two sections, and being fifty miles in length, will bo completed early next fall and the navigation opened in time for the wheat crop to be sent to market through that channel. .This is a period to which those who have been* hauling their grain to the Lake, a distance of from 130 to 150 miles, look forward to, with intense interest. They are prepared to appreciate the advantages of a work, which connecting them at once by easy water communication, with the great northern lake* and the city of New York, will ensure diem at home, very nearly the same prices for thelf produce, that are given at Chicago. Besides, it is most obvious, that all kinds of merchandize will be furnished to the country at very reduced prices.

WHIG MEXUER8 (NP OUN6BKSS. •^Fbe^ Ptntadetpbia U. aOasette has a fuft and gjowing account of lbe reception given by the VVbigs of Philadelphia to the Whig memof«g ress who reached that city on Thursday afternoon, (1st inst.) The steamboat Ohio w.-ts despatched from Philadelphia with a large Committee, to receive the members at the latter place. About one o'clock, P. M. they were received on board tbe Ohio, when Mr. Gibbons, on behalf of the Philadelphia Committee, gave than a cordial welcome, and was replied to by Mr. Salton^all of Massachusetts, on behalf of hia colleagues. While the boat was on ber way up the Delaware, the party sat

ing to the upper deck, Mr. Gibbons arose, and after some appropriate remarks, offered the following toasts "The Whia Delegation ia CoagTO*: Firm ia ifceir pohtkal fvtb—steftdfati and true to tlie iaierats of tbeir ooBnirr."

Mr. Tallmadgc, of New York, rose in reply, and after briefly speaking, cl»ed with saying that he could not poesibly offer a better toast than, "The life, and «oal, and oerfeci embodiment of Whig principle—HENRY CLAY

The cheers were loud and long which greeted this welcome offering, and were renewed again and again with a perfect enthusiasm of spirit.

The Gazette then-goes on to say— passengers when passing Fort Mifflin ratified by a salute of thirteen guns froff tW fort. It was answered, by the guns onlboard an| loud and spontaneous cheers. As tlne boat Reared ih#city and the shipping and wharves became visible, a goodly prospect was presented in tbe ships, guily dressed with flags, andMhe wharves lined with people, who cheered tire vessel on her course. Dock street wharf showed but one dense mass of figures, and, as the boat passed, a mighty cheer arose from them, dying away, only to be succeeded by another, and another, from the different points along thefront of the city a.t times mingled with the roar of cannon from the vessels and the wharves. In this way with the ringing shouts of thousands following the noble vessel, the front of the city was {Kissed ami re-passed, to the wharf at Dock street, which was so densely crowded, that it was with the utmost difficulty that a landing could be effected. The members were finally seated in carriages, apd a line of procession formed, heuded by mounted Marshals under the command of Gen. A. M. Prevost,nnd from the wharf the whole body proceeded to tlie Museum.

At the Museum, the comnaitteo of twelve assembled, and awaited the arrival of the procession. When the first carriage reached the place, it halted, and the Inmates alighted, and were admitted to the Hall, and thus it was with each carriage. After all the members of Congress were conducted to the staging at the east end of the room, the doors were opened, and the people admitted. In a few minutes the vast Hall was crowded. The beautiful jet d'eaut which bad been playing, was stopped, and die Hon. John Sergeant, the chairman of the cpmmittee of, twelve, called the audience to order. r* C. Gibbous, the cjhairman of the Committee of ^centipnj theg&yceported ttot

been to' Wilmington, receive*) the njemhere of Congress, and discharged generally now the ple^iSre^df sayfhg^ttHftSenators and Rep? r3Sfentative8 from fifteen States were present.

Whereupon, Mr. Sergeant announced the fact to the meeting, and then proceeded to bid the Congressman welcome in the name of the Whigs in the cfty and county of Philadelphia in nearly the following language: FeUoxe IVhige, Members uf the Senate and Iloute of

Representative* qf lhe United Stalrt:

obey their will. Infinite satisfaction it gives me to be tbe the organ of that will, notwithstanding the unavoidable conviction that words are inadequate to ex press their sense of your deserving, or to tell you how glad they are to hare the opportunity to lake you by the hand. Articulate language fails, but joy, and gratitude, and affectionate pride, are furnished with an utterance of deeper and more intelligible sympathy, and of unquestionable truth. What ydu have seen, and what you have heard, and what, may I not add, you have felt—the rushing of the Whigs to meet you, the warm anl joyous enthusiasm of their reception, the loud cheers have accompanied you—thei» are the

and honest outbursts of the heart, wliich

monarch on his throne may covet in vain, and the power of patronage cannot command. They can only obtain a miserable imitation—a feeble, hypocritical coinage—no more like tbe truth than btuw flattery like the counsels of sincere friendship.

Yon and your worthy associates, whom we woald have rejoiced to see with you, if the calls of duty else where had allowed—you and your worthy associates, the Whigs of both Houses of Congress, are tbe only men in the world who will enquire—why this unusual toranifefttationt Every other Whig heart in the Union has answered the question. Yott have withstood temptations and trials. You have endured anxiety and labor yon hove submitted to privations, and you Have risked reproach influenced only bv a sense of pnblic duty, you have stood at yoar posts, like men and aatriets, aad achieved a triumph for your country.

In a word we bone and all your Whig associates, in both Houses of gress, as the champions of the Whig cause, worthy of the name and worthy of the inheritance descended from the Whigs of 1776. ..

Once more. 1 bid yon a hesriy welcome, with all oar thanks, confident that the unanimous voice of the Whigs of the nation everywhere will greet you and your whig aaaociates, in the same »ceenu. __

A (ingle additional word, and I have done. Your duty has been faithfully and fully performed. You have kept tbe Whig suutdard triumphant and unsullied. Tbe W higs of the Onion mast now rally to it* support. Every Whig must do bis daty as yon have done yours, and will continue to float in triumph. Will they not follow yoar good examples? Who can doubt it

After Mr. Sergeant bad concluded his address, daring which he was repeatedly interrupted by huzzas, and occasionally by a cry of three cheers for John Sergeant," the meeting called for several members, but the Bon. T. M. McKeonao, of Washington, Pa. appeared in behalf of the members of Congress present, and expressed tbeir warm acknowledgment of the kind reception given. He, however, soon, and most gratify iogly, slid into an account of the proceedings of Congieas* and the thwartings which the Whigs bad endured from the one man power. His history of the passage of the Tariff Bill was to with intesastitutf cheered with hearty aeal.

Mr. McKennaa named three Whigs wto had datingttttbed themselves h§r their aeal, and forthecause of the people. He named Mr. FiLL*oas,of N.Y.,chairman of the Committee of Ways aad Mesaa, Sir* Tkgirso^, ot Iod., and last, net least, ECWAID STAWLT, of N. C. Ha name brought a thornier of applause. m»a-"aak be. "was restrained from

mm MM

Bat when he saw that tlie vote of ue Speaker would kill tbe bill, tie forgot all—himself, htS private views, hiaaectionai pc^jadtfl*—aad reawainered only Ira party and the tiaUon, aad gave ka vote, and has saved the lull. "It ia net much for a*, for member* o{ Congress from tlie Middle States, or the Eastern States, to give a vote lor the Tariff, even it htscnnstiiuentsdo not Tike it. But in tbe Sooth, wbcro prejudices have always prevailed against« Tariff, «b« ataa who could lhaa come wrward,and suatain his p«rty, and ihe nation, by such a votedesanad «verlaattnt fame."

Mr. McK then remarked that tbe Whiga bad inscribed on their banner, a sound currency protection to national industry, and the distribution ot the proceeds of the pubiic lands. "With that banner,H said he, "we must succeed, and Hsnav CLAV will bear it aloft."

The narnfe of HENRY CLAY was received with deafening shouts—an enthusiasm that delighted all.

Amidst calls for various public speakers, the meeting adjourned, to meet in front of the Exchange at 8 o'clock, it being then quite 7.

At the Exchange, in tbe evening, there was an immense gathering of the people. In the course of tbe evening, addresses were delivered to the crowds assembled in the Hall of the Exchange and in front of the building, by Messrs. Morehead, of Kentucky Thompson, of India on Halstead, of N.Jersey Stanly, of North Carolina Filimor^, of N. York Underwood, of Kentucky King, of Georgia Mathiot, of Ohio Tullmadge, of New York Tomlinsou, of Ky.j and Foster, of N. York.

Immediately over the President's Chair was the word TARIFF in illuminated characters, and a little to the right of it was thp of C|iAY, in sitnilar brilliancy. V.

THE WHIGS OF ALBANY have made arrangements for a public reception of tho Whig members of Congr»»ss. Wherever the Whig members go, they are received with triumph. The passage of the Revenue Bill with the other great measures of tbe session creates joy in almost every .place where the Whig members go. The eflect of some of these measures will be most propitious upon tbe busiuess prospects of the country. ye see already stigns of an improved business.1—N., 1. Express* •».. ".rft -ft
