Man.is nevitintisfledi Place him in tot= ever position you mayi and still the yearning nfter what he has not—i , the wish for some fu n, good ho fondly' hopes the . unwound web of time has in store for him, will haunt his waking and sleeping moments. Time passes on, and tile wish,'the longing aspera tion, which at first was undefined, without shape, assumes a tangible form,' and, in imag ination, assumes a living reality. All his ef forts are directed to _ the accomplishment, to the realization, of this his darling objet. it seems to him that if he could but accomplish the tad he has in view, he would be supreme ly happy. And wo be to those who stand in his road—all the hate which the evil passions., of his nature are capable of engendering, is invoked to his aid, and he at last begins to look upon the innocent and honest opposers dins ambition as his cot Mies, and himself as . a much wronged and perSecuted man. Utile object he seeks to accomplish is political preferment, - and he is possessed of command hug eloquence and talent, lt9 soon assembles around him those who, either dazzled by his genious or attracted by the hope of tqlvance ingot themselves, do not fail to flatter hisivan ity, pamper his rbition, and stimulate his hatred akainst all %t Ipt tkmure to ids advance ment . Upon this hypet6es is and these deductions we can alone account fer a spjctar le exhibited' by the world at' the present moment.' Many years ago there appeared-neon the po lilical boards a young orator and statesman, , talented, gifted and eloquent, and although hasty and rash, he soon surrounded himself with admirers and flatterers, intent upon using hi talent as the sloping stone for their own ambition.. Young, ardent and ambitiens, they had little ditliculty in persuadihg, that the Chief Magistacy of the nation should ; alone be the goal ;Of his ambition—the future station to which all his effirts o ught to he di;; rected. Like a sweet morsel he fur years rolled tins delusion under his tongue. Tittle I passed on—step by step he ascended the po- ; lit 'cal ladder, and at tit euzli at every round he receited the plaudits of admiring tlions3»ds, heard his prais es rehearsed,and Ids eloquence I extolled, still he :vas unsatisfied. In the on wound woof of the future he thought he saw himself seated in the .chair once filled by a Wasliington. Nettling short of this would sat i-fy his ambition, or allay the burning thirst which the unsatisfied desire of years had en gendered. On the floor of the Legislature of ; his adopted t3titte, as her representative in the ; Congress of the nation, as his country's Min- ; inter iii a foreign land, the Presidency v.aiiithe beacon light toward which he steered his', barque. At 13.,t the statesmen of the old reg , cnie had been gathered to their fathers or retired to the quiet of private life, feil'of hon or and blessed with a nations gratitude. 'The field %Nag at last open fur younger aspirants ; , Ez. he kvith three others, entered upon the race.%lle people canvassed their clainis, but failed to l ixpress a preference for either in the mariner Prescribed by the constitution. The Pores tio-r had be decided by the two houses of Congress. And here the natural rashrieSs and want of judgment of the min, which years had failed to cure, ,was first exhibited to the multitude, altfinugh' many there' were who had lung'seen thiss - ti7-fect - in his charac ter aid mourned the meteor like brilliancy of his , !popularity. &Aisne.) that he had, no chalice of success, he, entered into an infa- Mous bargain and sale with one of the candi 7 dates, and in consideration of being made Sedretary of State, placed him in the Presi dential chair against the will of ..the people.' The' fiat went furth=--the confidence the people had reposed in him had been shameful ly abused, and the star-of his popularity which had shone ft rth lith meteor brilliancy, palled benrath the scorn 10.44, injured constituency. The cfriphatic condemnation %%Veit they pro noulnced upon his conduct at the succeeding Presidential election, would have satisfied any oiler less infatuated that the goal of his am bition could never be reached; but lie, true to nature When unrestrained by patriotism arc virtue, Was U satisfied still. Since then, like n droWning man, he has been struggling against adverse tides, and buffeting the waves of ill-furtime, in the vain hope of ultimate succeeS. The result of 1841 ' would deter any, other man but HENnY ;CLAY from again asking the suffrages of the - people for an of fice lie is nev cr destined to fill, but the coun try now exhib its the humiliating, sight of ans otfier effort to attain his object.
