thoSe cases, how-ever, which the cold-hearted and

- Marl that time. Every pr leasing Christian should
recognise himself as required to 'do all in his pow
:er,.directly and indirectly, to promote the temporal
-welfare ..1' his fellow-beings. Those who do not
z!feel this responsi'nlity resting upon them, and who
do.notaet ha accordance with the great design of
whom they profess to follow, are but casting a
:ritual reproach upon the religion they profess, and
retarding its progress through the world.

trity, we think that tin' is a condition, imposed by
tltiCreator upon man, while here, for his own hene

pursued, does not secure to him all the comforts
oflife, there is a wrong somewhere, which should
be remedied ; and those who profess -to be living

pecially required to try and discover wherein con•

!Many, we know, deny that mans physical condi
tion has any thing _to do with his spiritual obliga
tions; and, abstractly considered, they may, per
-- • baps seem to be - right. We shall not argue the
point with them. We prefer to quote from the writ
ings of a high authority in ancient times, who favors
our argument. He makes a good man to pray—
.. 'sr Give me neither poverty norriebes: feed me with
' food convenient for me: lest I be full, and deny
Thee; and 'say Who is the Lord 1 or lest I be poor,
and steal, and take the name of my God in vain.
Another authority, higher than he, has said—'s The
laborer is worthy of his hire :" and " Thou shalt

Letter of Cassius M. Clay.
la order to gratify the almost universal desire of
our readers, of all parties, to see this reinarlinble
prodtiCtien, we insert, );.-day, the letter of the very
talented kinsman of the "Great Embodiment' , of
64 piggery. It is, moreover, proper to be published,
on account or the use which may he expected to be
riiade or it,' during 'the approaching presidential
campaign. That Cassius M. Clay is a man of re
markable talents, we are not disposed to deny.
Such was the character given to him by his political
associates, when, in 1844, he was so zealously en
gaged in fighting the battles of his party ; and a few
years of experience, while in the prime of lifeCcan
not he suppored to have diminished his clairim to
that character. lie is still a " Whig;" and there
fore, with his own party, his pretensions cannot be
presumed to he any less commanding thaathey then
were.
There is a homely adage, that " When rogues
fall out, honest men get their own." If the maxim
be true, we may expect to have some rich develop
ments of the operations of Whiggery, as a result of
the publication of this letter. Some are made in
its pages, well calculated to excite suspicion, in the
minds of all honest men. There isa plain and une
quivocal admission of the fact, long since charged
upon the Federal party by their opponents, that they
courted, both the Abolitionist and Native American
factions, in the last canvass; and that they received
the support of a large portion of the former. This
we have looked Upon as self-evident: and are not,
therefore, very much astonished at hearing the( fa. t
admitted. But there is something beyond this;
which, coming from a man who has beon so highly
eulogized for his talents, his boldness, and his in
dependence, by his political associates, is at least
worthy of being examined into--especially by his
political friends,. HENRY CLAY is here charged, by
one of the leaders of his own party, with the crime
i of ingratitude; with inconsistency; and with being
the sole cause of the disasters of his party, fur ser
ieral years past;—and this from his unconquerable 1
-disposition to rote his party. There are all matters
with which we, as Democrats, have nothing to du.
"The charges are made in his own political family;
and therelbre we choose to let every man examine
the evidence, and decide upon their truthfulness, ac
cording to the dictates of his own judgment.
That HENRY CLAY is a candidate for the Presi
dency, all are now aware. That he will be the
nominee of the Philadelphia Convention, Ili June,
we think highly probable. if he shall lie nomi
nated, we shall be satisfied :he is that same old
'Coon," and we shall of course be prepared to enter
the lists, knowing with whom we have to contend :
but the matter is not decided ; and in view of this
letter from his distinguished kinsman ; the many
similar demonstrations that have been made, among
those who were his supporters an 12:44; the trickery
that has been so often resorted to, in order to force
him from the field ; and the manner in which he o
ss
disposed of in 1840, we do not feel entirely sure
that he will receive the nomination of the general
convention of his party. This, however, we look
upon ascertain—that, though he may be nominated
by the Convention of his party, HENRY CLAY CAN
NEVER LIE PRESIDENT OF TLFELE STATES!"
, The following truly eloquent and ennobling sen
timents were uttered by the Hon. Wo...tast At.t.r.rf,
of Ohio. The first is extracted from a speech de
livered by him at Newark, in Ohio, some years
since; and the last may be found in his late speech
before the Senate of the United States, in support
of hie resolutions of congratulation to France :
"Democracy is a sentiment not to be appalled,
cot rupted,, or compromised. It knows nu baseness;
it cowers to no dangei.; it oppresses no weakness.
Fearless, generous and humane, it rebukes the arro
gant, cherishes honor, and sympathises with
humble. It asks nothing but what it concedew; ea",
concedes nothing but what it demands. Destructive
only of despotism, it is the sole conservative of
liberty, labor and property. It is the sentiment of
freedom, of equal rights, of equal obligations. It
is the law of nature pervading the law of the land.
The stupid, the selfish, and the base in spirit, may
de-Counce it as a vulga: thing; but in the history of
our race, the democratic principle has developed
and illustrated the highest moral and intellectual at
tributes of our nature; and may that spirit which an
imated our fathers in the revolutionary contest for
its establishment, continue to animate us, in the
impending struggle for its preservation."
" One great truth has been established within the
last forty days ; and I pronounce it one of the most
important truths which has been politically estab
lished since the formation of society, and it is this :
that armed men no longer afford a guarantee to
despotism. Standing armies can no longer be re.
lied on to' sustain thrones ; but, on the contrary,
mix and mingle with the oppressed multitude, and
are the first to reduce those thrones to ashes. That
is the great truth of the age. It has just been es
tablished in France—established in the presence of
a hundred thousand bayonets in the pay of the

That the Democratic party "have been able to
elide the public ban,• whenever their opponents
have dared to show themselves under their own
proper colors, is a historical truth, not often to be
met with in Federal nevvept pers. They have been
able to do this, by convincing the Peoplethat their
measures were those best calculated to promote
their abiding welfare—that their cause was that of
the masses. It is perfectly natural, therefore, to

CAOBIu Ai. CLAY TO HENKY CLAY.
.Hoar. HENRY. CLAY,
Sin—ln the Tribune•of this atorninil find a let
ter dated Ashland, April 10th, 1848,04er your lig;
nlture. The letter is addressed„ I presume, to the
American people. . If I did not know you well o the
intervening space of three days only between its
date and its arrival here, would lead me to suspect
its authenticity. If yeti. - determination to allow
your name to go before the Philadelphia Convention
as a candidate for the Presidency, had been in flexor
dance merely with your -wishes and individual judg
ment, I should have kept a respectful ailened. - But
as your determination is based upon the supposed
interestOf the Whig party, I shall venture unasked,
to add my opinion to that of the numerous Whigs to
whom you refer. When I tell you that royalty rare
ly hears the truth, you till think, no dgubt, that I
repeat a very stale dogma, if not altogether out of
Place in a republic. But there are parasites in re
publics as well as in deipntisms, and of those you
have a very liberal portion , just new. Were I to
claim to be your personal friend, I mightbetter. per
haps, accomplish my purposes; but as I have never
avowed one class of sentiments whilst in reality •
holding another, I tell you frankly that, although
from my earliest youth I had been something more
than a cold admirer of yourself, so when you start
ed, on the 19th of August, 1545, to the Virginia .
Springs, leaving your friends and family to murder
me in my sick bed, Ibr vindicating the principles
which you had taught me, in your speeches, at least, I
ceased coke - poly friendittint became, by the neces
sity of my•nature, yours:l:ferny; What - 181M! say to
you now, then, will have the more weight, because
you will see that it come. from an honest, if not an
unprejudiced man; whilst I shall attempt to divest
myself of the individual and speak as the member
of a great party.
I shall then take up your letter in its proper or
der.—ln saying that you had "a strong inclination to
the use of my (your] name in connection with that
office," courtesy leads me to confine myself to the
remark that you deceived yourself—but no one else!
So soon as you were defeated In the last election, a
committee of your friends from Frankfort waited
upon you,and condoled with you on that melancholy
event. You responded in a manner that led me, al
most with the power of certainty, to remark to some
friends that Henry Clay is a candidate again for the
Presidency. Time attestamisagacity.
So strong was my conviction that you would be
a candidate, when letters were read in the Conven
tion of the "Whig friends of Gen. Taylot" in the
Bute House at Frankfort, from the Hon.J. J. Crit
tenden, Hon. Charles S. Morehead and Hon. J. P.
Gaines, begging us not to nominate Gen. Taylor, and
thus push your from the track, and saying that you
would on your return home retire from the canvass,
in the presence of the thousands there assembled,
I rose up and declared that although I respected
these gentlemen, I bad not the least confidence that
you would in truth withdraw. Time auests my sa
gacity. After you hailstone en to New York, and
delegates were chosen to the National Convention
whilst you were the city's guest, and it was again
asserted that you would decline on your return
home: I said no; you refused to go to New York
last summer, you would not have gone now, Unless
you had determined to run for the Presidency. Time
attests the truth of the prediction . . You say that
your friends represent that " the withdrawal of my
name would be fatal to their success." If they so
speak to you, they speak a different langu-ge else- `
where.
.I have been told that all the members of
Congoess from our own State but one, told you that
you could not be elected, and that divers others
whom I could name, told you the same thing. But
if these reports be untrue, allow me to tell you that
I have heard almost universally that your name
would again bring us defeat. In that opinion I con•
cur, and I will give you my reasons. Because lam
not guiltness myself, and because of the bad taste of
the thing, I will not urge objections to your private
character. Neither will I press your prestige dill
luck, in saying that all the measures which you have
urged upon the people, except the Missouri com
promise, have been-erased from the statute book.
For we lament in common, the fall of the tariff, the
bank, acd internal improvements, under your lead !
I shall confine myselfthen to the question of avail*.
billy. Three times have we run you and three
times your name has brought us defeat ! So soon
as Gen. W. H. Harrison had brought us up from a
miserable minority, you burned on to Washington,
when Mr. Tyler under Mr. Webster.• lead was do
ing good service to the country and party, and by
attempting to force on him and us the " obsolete
Bank" which we had purposely slurred in the can
rasa, you brought us to a speedy minority!
A " long time ago," being too old to perform the
comparatively light duties of Senator, you gave the
public a farewell address and retired from public life.
The democratic party by the excess of its numbers,
was at once split into widely separated fragments.—
Messrs. Cass, Calhoun, Van Buren, Tyler, Polk, and
inhere, uric all pressing their claims with a bitter
before unknown to the party. "Whom the girds
wish to destroy, they first make toad." They de
termined to bring Texas into the Union, avowedly
to break down the power of the free North, and to
make this nation a slave empire. The friends of
liberty rallied once mo e, and in spite of your Mis
souri compromise, and your cnnsistent denunciation
of all real anti-slavery action, your Raleigh letter
made you by some fatality our candidate once more.
The democratic feuds were at once cured up by the
greater hatred of Henry Clay. Mr. Van Buren, who
had taken similar ground with yourself, but who
could not unite the party, was overthrown, and Mr.
James K. Polk -submitted. Notwithstanding the
claims of other whigs, I will not restrict myself to
saying your equals were postponed, who no one now
doubts he could have been elected, we, the Whig
Party, all united on you. We fought with the ardor
or brotherhood, and with the moral power of a noble
cause. Our 'acct.:re seemed certain. Now, once
more, by that fatality which attends you, you come
out in your Gazette letter, and disclaim any sympa
thy with emancipation. It is true there was a little
inconsistency it, thus, inasmuch as you had always
avowed just the opposite doctrine; betas you wrote
to me " go on good Cassius," I thougift at last all
things would come out right. This, however was a
small affair between you and Inn, and our abolition
friends. But all at once you came out in your Ala
bama letter; when you would "not reject a perma
nent acquisition of territory on account of a tempo
rary institution."' This we; a very different affair.
It lay at the foundation of the whole contest. You
"changed front." The Whigs of the North were dis
gusted. They had nothing left to contend for. The
battle was lost. We felt our country's wounds in
your person. We paid your debts, we condoled
with you in your retirement once-more, and raised
monuments to your memory! Once more the exces
ses of the Democratic petty, began to exhibitthem.
selves. The unconstitutional annexation of Texas,
and the Presidential war, began to stir the souls of
indignant freemen. Seeing that we were in a mi
nority, and without the sympathies of the people—
having experience that a peace party can never have
the confidence of a Republic during a raging war—
our wise whig leaders voted supplies, and the whigs
turned out to the war, and once more we steadily
brought ourselves up from a minority where you had
again left us, into a majority.
The Administration had all the responsibility of
the loss of honor, men., and money, by the war; our
Whig generals reaped the glory. The success of
our party was certain. Thepubhic, with a unanimity
never before seen in this country, looked to one
man ; a manjwho, growing too great for the powers
at Washington, was left to perish with a handful of
men before twenty thousand troops in the enemy's
country. ' But ZACHARY Thattaa was not the man
to die, to accommodate President Polk or his ally
Santa Anna! The battle of Buena Vista fixed Gen
eral Taylor in the hearts of this people! Neither
you, nor the wireworkers of party, nor the President,
can cause him or his friends to "surrender !" The
honest old soldier was generous enough.to give it
parting compliment to your name, by saying he
would have preferred you to himself to lead us on
once more to the battle. You have taken him at his
word! Immediately,your friends of the "fecret cir
cular," under the pretence of being "the friends of
General Taylor," stab him to the vitals. Then,
sharp sighted patriots fbund out that General Taylor
was not the choice of the Whigs—that this willing
nese of the greatful heart of the people was all a
sham affair : in a wont, that you would reluctantly
consent to run again! It is true this is not fair play!
It looks to me like political assasiinalian! Nor will
it be cured in the eyes of all disinterested men, by
the spirit of violence, which your friends in Frank
fort—in Baltimore—in Cincinnati—and in Now York,
have ventured against the friends ofTaylor and "the
liberty - of speech." The verdict of a jury against
your ion lately in Kentucky, ought to teach you and,
them, that we are not yet slaves even to Henry Clay.
It-is true that this is in you deep ingratitude to,
Gen;Taylor; but you are justplaying out your -life
long game :for when did ever HENRY CLAY spare an ,
enemy or l friend? I congratulate you upon your
determinatibn it last, to denounce the Native Amer
ican
party, to-whom you wrote encouraging letters
during the last canvass; and which they were kind
enough to suppress; you can-do so with impunity !'
The Native American party is dead l
,But whether
the memory of Irish and other foreigners' will be as
easy in forgetting a wrong as 'you are in remem
bering ajavor, remains to be seen I Space compels
me to pass over the long roll of your self-advocacy,
and confine myself to two specifications. You seem
to think that Ohio will not go for any " one residing
in the Slase States" but you ' • and that New York
would moreeertainly bestow her vote on you "than
any - other candidate."

Potatoes Getting n
The•editor of the Jefferson Democrat, at Brook
ville, says that there is a man in that county, who
asks one dollar a bushel for his potatoes: and he
recommends to his fellow Citizens, that said pota
toes shall be permitted to rot, rather than give such
a price for them. Now, as he says that Potatoes
are very scarce there, unleu people can get them
elsewhere at a cheaper rate, would it not be wiser
to pay even that extravagant price ? The time may
come when the man who owns them, will stand in
need of the kind offices of his neighbors. With
hoW much of satisfaction could they then prove the
superiority of their natures! The same man asks
one dollar and a half a bushel for his wheat!

We bad the pleasure of conversing not long since
with a worthy and venerable democrat from New
York, who visited and was favored with a long in
*terview with, Gen. Jackson, two days before his
death, most of the partial:dare .of which interview
have long since been given to the public. In the
course ofan affecting retrospect to some of the most
important events of his life, the dying patriot and
christian alluded to a charge of hastiness pf action,
which had been made against him by his political
enemies, and remarked that he hadnener, during . his
whale presidential course, decided upan any important
measure, withcnafirst inquiring. of his Maker and sup
plicating his guidance and blessing. What a com
ment this upon the justice of political censorr!—
What better explanation can we need of the heroic
death of the ex-president than is furnished by this
interesting fact I He feared nothing. He was a
man of prayer.—Providence Patriot.

serve in the,fialtininre AMerican thit Mr. H.. Smith,
`formerly_ of this city,' and who havbeen for some
time, 'proprietor of the American Hotel, Baltimoie,
:has' lately been making :great improvements — in his
.House. A spacious dining room, capable of seating
about eighty guests, and also an elegant ladies , or
dinary have been added•on the first floor, and forty
additional chambers have been constructed, giving a
capacity in the house for the accommodation of about
12,5 guests.
The rooms on the second floor, formerly used as
a dining' room and ordinary, are. now appropriated
as parlors, and have been fitted up with great taste
and elegance; that designed for the use of the ladies
especially. The furniture of the chambers through
out the establishment has also been renewed„and
the rooms papered, giving to the whole an air of
much neatness, cleanliness and comfort. For the
convenience of the inmates, a bath house has been
constructed in immediate connection with the hotel.
The location ofthe American, immediately opposite
the Railroad Depo.t, on Pratt street, renders it con
venient to the business part of the city, whilst it is
also" in close proximity to the various steamboat
landings and railroad depots.
Pitsburghers who have °cession to stop in Balti
more, will know at what House to lodge. Mr.
Smith's connexion with the Exchange and St.
Charles Hotels of this city, won for him a reputation
that will insure his success in Baltimore.
Isar' We heard it sifggested yesterday, by a res
pectable lawyer, that a petition should be sent to the
County Commissioners, requesting them to refuse
admittance into the Jail to those unworthy members
of the Bar who. seek clients in the cells, and some
limes practice the most infmnotis izn?ositiona upon
the ignorant prisoriers. It is a goi;cl idea; but we
hope the Commissioners will attend to this matter,
without the necessity of an appeal to them by citizens.
The evil is too great to be slightly passed over.—
We know an instance in which a lawyer obtained a
considerable sum of money from one of his clients,
that he knew had been stolen from a poor woman.
The client was sent to the Penitentiary—the law
yer 0 !) got the money rot performing no service—
and the poor woman was rol , bed. We have heard
of other similar cases, all of which are well known
around the Court house.
A more respectable Bar than ours can not be
found in the United States. Its members aro nearly
all gentlemen, who would scorn to be guilty of u
dirty trick ; and therefore we think that these should
not be injured by the clean conduct of the few who
have been permitted tb have their names enrolled
upon the list.
We have bee; urged by lawyers to continue this
agitation until the proper authorities succeed in
remedying the evil complained
