HENRY CLAY'S OPINIONS ON THE
TARIFF QUESTION.
The following extract is from the speech of Mr.
Clay; in the Senate of the U. S. on the 21st Jan
uary, 1842; in reply . Jo Mr. W oodbury, on the
Treasury Note Bill—reported for the- Washing
ton National Intelligeneer :
EITUACT rrtom Mn. CLAY ' S SpEECII.
Carry out then, said he, the spirit of Me
Compromise Act. Look to Revenue alone for
the support of Government. Do not raise the
question of Protection, which I had hoped had
been put to rest. There is no necessity of PRO
TECTION FOR PROTECTION." ,
The above is from the Locofoco alias Tyler Or
gan of this liorough—and, is going the rounds of
the Locofoco presses. We need hardly state that
it is a base fabrication—it originated with a loco-
Coco member of Congress from Indiana; whose .
name we do not recollectr r .was pronounced a
forgery on the floor of Congress, and proved to be
so—and the member was publicly branded* a
base calumniator, which he pocketed quietly.—
Now ;ail those who are acquainted with the cir
cumstances, and Continue to Circulate it, are no
better than the base calumniator who originated
it. 'No such report of Mr. Clay's speech appears
in •the National Intelligencer of the date mention
ed-Ails-reported speech is entirely different. So
much for that slander.
Next folly js' an extract from the celebrat
ed Georgia letter, which may.be a correct extract
for all we know, and on which, ibis well known
the Locofocos binge all iheir arguments, that
Henry Clay had abandoned 'his protective princi,
pies. It as follows:
.1 never teas in favor of what I regarded
a high Tariff. No more Revenue should be le
thnn is izere . ssary to an economical adminii
trillion of the Government.—Mr. Clay's letter to
Mr: Merriweaiher of Georgia, Oct. 2, 1843.
The above extract is in accordance with the
principles Henry Clay has ever professed. He
has always-opposed a high Prohibitory, Tariff, be
cause such a bill would necessarily lead to ii,,dim
inution of revenue. and direct taxation. He has
always been did is now in favor of levying 'sof&
dent duties to defray the expenses of the General
Government—he is in favor of raising the whole
revenue of the Government from dutieson Foreign
goods, and removing the Land Fund from the
National Treasury. This is set forth in his let
ter declaratory 'of his principles, dated Ashland,
Sept. 13th; 1842, to a eitiien—of Philadelphia,
wherein It; declares himself in favor of "an ade
quate revenue (for dutieS) with fair protection : to
American industry." This is all the protection
that Henry. Clay asks—this is all- the protection
the Democratic Whig party asks, and we defy the
whole Locofoco party to produce a single sentence
from , : of henry play's speeches or public 'acts,
with gam to the American System, which con
flicts with the opinions expressed in the above ex
tract.' Henry Clay is the . open advocate of the
Tariff of 18.12, 'and Li favor of distributing the
proceeds of the Public Lands among the States,
throwing the Government on duties alone to
'irefray its expenses. James K. Polk has avowed
himself opposed to both these measures. Thenhow
dare the locofocos assert that James K. Polk is
as good a Tariff man as Henry Clay? So much
for the Georgia letter. - 1
The nal is the followmg extract:
[From the Savannah Republican, the leading Clay pa
per in Georgia.]
We deny Mr ; CLAY, or the
WHIGS of Georgia, whose Candidate he it,
seek for The cstablishment of a PROTECTIVE
TARIFF, but Mr. Clay adheres to the pri7ici
pies of the Comp-ontise Act." ,
' Whether the above is correct or 'not, we do not
know—if it is, which we doubt, it must have been
putlished a long time ago; because 'all the Whig
Senators and RcpreSentatives from Georgia, and
the above
. mentioned paper, are among the open
and avowed advocates of the Whig Tariff of 1842.
They have.n.ailed it to their Banner, and they are
marching to victory under its 'broad and 'ample
:folds.: •
The next extract is as follows: •
•
. '•
"Let every Farmer,
.every Mechanic, every
WOrking man, read' the following remarks- of
HENUY CLAY, 'wade in Congress in 1 , 319,
and then say AN tallier they can give him theii sup
port; and I,t.eyery 'wife; and every, daughter read
it, and :cc the slander cast upon !them. Henry
Clay said:
. GENTLEMEM WILL NOT ALLOW
1..;S To . HAVE BLACK SLAVES, THEY
ALUsT LET US HAVE - WHITE ONES ;
FOR WE CANNOT uuT OCR FIRE
WOOD AND 'BLACK OUR SHOES, AND
HAVE OUR WIVES AND , DAUGHTERS
WORK IN THI KITCHEN I !"
The above extract is also a forgery. - -No such
language is-found in any of Henry Clay's report
cd'speeches, and - he has himself, in a recent letter
to the Hon. John White, of Kentucky, - -over his
own signature, denied that . hg "ever:made use of
such language or entertained such sentiments.—
And we believe -that the Ainerican .people :will
coincide in opinion with us that Henry Clay's de
nial is better, authority than the columns of any
ldeofoco party- paper published ht the country.
A PAIENT ' H Vsigor.A•scx.--An auctioneer by
the name ofLov - T, in St. Louis, seduced the only
.daughter of - Mr. Edward Ford, of the same place,
and enticed her f. om her home. , The father, in
an intense state of agitation, met Loj;inthe street:,
and inplired after his daughter, and what 6ourse
he was going to pursue. He refused to give him
any satisfaction—but retorted by telling her father
"togo tp h—." He immediately drew a pistol
and shot. Low in the forehead. At the last ac
count he was alive, but not expected to recover .
Mr. Ford immediately.surrendered• himself to th e
public authorities, and several gentlemen stepped
forward and entered bail for his,appearance in the
sum of ;,,5000.

The Albany Argus says the Whigsare the .Na

have always stood by. and advocated the best in

tainty can have no objectioni to the name: If
we mistake nut, it was but a short time ago, the
Argus declared that the Whig party was, the for

was run twice for the Legisia;ture in Schuylkill
County, agamst his wishes and inclinations.—
The first time was in 1837, jthen The 'Locofoco

.In 1841; immediately after the treachery of
John Tyler, an apathy prevailed in. the Whig

ers out for Governor. The Whiga formed a
ticket, and they prevailed onlEoct. Eckert-to lend
his name to the party for s4id purpose. When
called upon he at first decline'i running, but after
wards stated that if 'they thought the use of his
name would be of any inthlnce in bringing out
the votes, he would surrender his private feelings>
and they might use it. They did use. it,.and the

Our readers must recollect that the above has
been promulgated sincehe bas,been nominated,with
his approbation, of course. In addition to the a
bove, at a.ratification.mee:ting held in Cincinnati,
`Ohio, Mr. Elwood Fisher!, one of the most promi
nent Locofocos in that ci y, made use of the fol
lowing language :
" The Whigs accuse Ili; of not being willing to
go before the people uponlour principles—of being
afraid to avow our naked principles and discus
them fairly and openly, unaided hy the gunpow';
der popularity of a Jackscln. or the-secret . power of

who is neither a hero norl a magician, a citizen

in the Edgfield, (Calhqun's) District, in which:
they put forth the folloviing declaration:

United States was in falvor of Internal Improve

ond'election to that body; as' early as 1809, was
in favor of a 'PROTscri,Vp: -TARIFF, which won
him that title of 4.Falkerq the American System.'
His gubsequent career lias proved - his consistency
upon all these points, on which. and many others
of import, the Democnicy of the whOle country

narrnsata_rr.—We publish below the following
correspondence, which fully bears us out , in what
wo stated with regard to the, arrangements Made
with the. Conferees. As the Conferees from Dau
phin and Lebanon promised to promulgate theOr
range:pent when called upon, we hope they will
da'aci !without any hesitation. The plea set forth
by min that the arrangement was made in their, in
dividual capacity, and not as Conferees, avails
nothing. Even admitting this quibble, it would
be just as binding on themselves and Mr. Ranisey;
(for whom they acted as friends) as if it was made
as Conferees. But the arrangement was made
in Convention, -after it was organized—and we
•
cannot comprehend how they could act in any
other 'capacity than • Conferees while in session.
The Correspondence however speaks for itself:

iG7:TLEMErt :—Your communication 'Of the
Ith past:, has just been received, and we,
who
clessO, hasten to give you a statement °flail we
know' in relation to the arrangements about which
ou enquire
But in. order that you may have a correct view,
of the whole subject; it will be; necessary; to give,
you somewhat of a history of ,the circumstances
,which led to the necessity o' f !the arrangements
which we regard as having been made at the con.
finence referred to.
You perhaps will recollect that Schuylkill coun-
IT )
was the first to move in the organization of the
WhigiParty in. the new Congressional diStrict, and
a`t their general county meeting held i4lnly last,
Conferees. were appointed to meet Conferees to be
--•
appointed in Dauphin and 'Lebanon counties, at
fonestoWn, to place in nomination a suitable perk
I ;
son to be supportedin the district for*Cori,gress,
That l the Conferees thus appointed were left with-
Out instructions as to the person to be placed in
nomination. The Whigs of the county believing
drat ' the Conferees coining from the three court- -
, .1
ties in the district, would be the most capable of
fixing upon a proper person to he supported for
this station, and that such a course would best
tend :to prOmote harmony and unanimity of action
Throughout the district. This - liberal proceeding
upon 'the part of Schuylkill county, was not re.
• Spornled to on the part of Dauphin and Lebanon
counties, and they, as we supposed, with a full
Itom ; yledge of the course taken by Schuylkill coun
ty, instructed their Conferees to vote for Alexart. '
der Ramsey. It then become a very serious clues
tion 'with the Whigs of Schuylkill CoMitY, wheth
cr their Conferees ought to ge into confe'rence on
the Subject gra nomination with personS whose
hands were tied, and who had no power to confer
on the subject, except in the mode instructed.
These proceedings amongst other circumstances
not necessary to Mention, created, a suspicion in
the minds of many that there was a combination
formed by some whigs in Dauphin. And Lebanon
counties, to. oust Schuylkill from all participation
in the reptesentation T and which was likely to
conlinue,as long as the district continued, and
created a very great degree of displeasure in the
wl4 ranks of Schuylkill county, to an extentlike
ly to ruin the prospects of the party in the die.-
trict. This. dissatisfaction having become pretty
generally known prior to the meting of the Coln
ferees at Jonestown, the friends of Mr. IRamsey
were. actively engaged in healing the difficulty,
'and for that purpose communicated. veily freely
with the whigs of Schuylkill county, end in order
to satisfy them that their suspicions with reference
to this combination were unfoundednd to indime
thd whigs of Schuylkill county, G go into . Con
ference upon the subject of the noinination, dis
tinctly said that the understanding was that Schnyl.
kill county should haVe the next nomination to
the next s Congress, and that 4 was the terms on
I •
which they were to give their support to
Millamsey, and the terms on which he, Mr. Rani
sey, was to accept of the nomination. With these
pretestations on the part of the friends'of Mr. Ram
sff, we met the Conferees from Dauphin and Leb:
anon at Jonestown, and . the same'opiriion Was
there given by. all the Conferees there assembled,
boilt from Dauphin and Lebanon connties. The . .
Conferees there said that
. such an
,arrangement
would be correct and proper with respekto 'the
claims of Schuylkill county, and would - be, suppor-
rIMONY
ted by them, and that such was the views of l the
'friends Of Mr. Ramsey, as far as they knew. Up
on which assurances thus
,given, the Confercea
Irpm Schuylkill county approved ok,the nornina_
tiOn of Mr. RamSey, and after which, upon Mr ,
'itamsey'r visit to Schuylkill ounty, l it Was circa' ,
fated amongst the whigs hero that) Mr.l Ramsey
had recognised the arrangement thus. made t and
had distinctly'slatecl that ho would giv e dais sup
port to a candidate from Schuylkill county for the
next nomination in the district.. The result o
this arrangement was the election of Mn Ranasey r
and we are gratified to say, -the, signal triumph of
Whig principles in the distract. t
This is the substance of the arrangements in the
district, as near as we can now recollect the Omer
and we have no doubt they will be carried cart in
good faith by the Whigs of the district, and
ularly by Mr. Ramsey and .his friends.l For we
will not willingly believe that Mr. Ramsey ~in
whom we have found so ago a Representative of
the whig cause and its principles, would attempt
an act that would inevitably destroy the flattering
prospects of the whigs in the district. I

Gentlemen.--k common with the Other !con_
fcrees, I have received your communication, and it
affords me pleasure to be able to give you ail the
i nfortnation in my power, in. regard to the 14th
C ongressional Convention of 1843. i In 'order
ully to!understand the proceedings of that CO=
-entfon,4et. us glance at the situation of things las
hey existed prior to the meeting of the corifere ' es,
It is well knoun that the confereti from Schulyl
kill countyi went into the Congressional Conven
tion uninstructed in any way whatever. Thatlal
though the Whigs of Schuylkill county' may leive
had a preference, yet their conferee's had unlin4ed
power to cast their votes for any person they s l aw
proper. lt' is also an undeniable fact,- that hinh
the 'conferees from Lebanon and Dauphin claim
ties were instructed by c9unty delegate, meetings,
to support our present talented and worthy repre
sentative, Hon. Alexander Ramsey ? , as the elite°
Of the Whigs of those counties, for their Congrce
sional candidate. The Convention met atlones
-1
town, Lebanon County, on Saturday the twenty
sixth day of August, A. D.' 1543 Lebanon
county was represented by Dr. Georgeßeidensur,
Maj. John Bruner, and Samuel Becker, Daup%in,
by Col: Geo. Hummel, Samuel T. Williams, and
'Samuel H. Clark, l in the place of Thomas ylociley;
As the Conferees from Dauphin and Lebanon ion
instructed, .and we were not., Vve contended that
we did not, and could not meet the Dauphin land
Lebanon Conferees on equal ground—thetl the
Convention would be merely nominal—that. in
fact the nomination had already been made byl, the
instructions of the conferees from the Counti i rs of
Dauphin and Lebanon. They refused to throw
their instructions aside; we required some recpro_
city of advantage for Schuylkill county, prolided
we supported their candidate, Hon. A. Ramsey.
A number Of propositions were made. At i one
time it was proposed that Schuylkill co. should
have two terms out of the ten years for which the
State has Been districted. ,This was strenuously"
objected to: Al length it was mutually agreed,
fairly entired into, and thoroughly undeAtood
by et:cry Conferee in that Convention, tha4 pro
vided the conferees from Schuylkill county Would
support the chbice of Dauphin atul Lebant cos..
forthe Congressional Representative, (viz.illon:
Alexander Ramsey,) Schuylkill county should
have the Representative for the next term. I This
point settled, a Chairman of the Convention was
nominated; when a Conferee frinn your cout l tty re,
quested the Chairman to Pause a moment, and sta
ting that there might be some necessity bef+e the
coming fall of making known the agreement Which
had just b*en entered into, imiuirerl,of the Jonfer
ees from Dauphin and Lebanon, - Whethet they
would give it publicity at any •time they mi'ght be
called upon to do sol They answered thaf., they
would. We then went into convention, and on
the firstl%illot Hon. Alexander Ramsey was;unan
imously nominated. I give you these faets not
from. distinct recollection only, but from private
memoranda, made at the time. Immediately after
the Convention, the agreement was nride known
: j
to our political friends, and to all who took suffi
cient Interest l
in the nomination to make tlai inqui
iy. lipoti the visit of Mr. Ramsey t 6 Schuylkill
shortly after the Convention, this agreement was
spoken ot. in his presence, and given as a; reason
why Schuylkill co. would give him her united and
warm support.
Nor de your Conferees suppose there can be
any diflichlty, or misunderstanding, about a com
pact so solemnly ratified, and from time to time ac---
knowledge(' by the j Whigs of the three counties.
When called upon I hav't no doubt but that the
Conferee's from Dauphin and Lebanon Will'redeem
the proinse made in Convention, and I think the
Whigs of Schuylkill have too much confidence in .
their present able Representative to suppose for
one instant; he will allow his name to be used in
violation, of county faith. The warm, friends of
the prineiples'you advocate, and the friends of uni
on, of harmony, as well ret_eliampions'of county
pride, and county faith, the Whigs of Schuylkill
would esceedingly_regret the adoption of tt course
so fraught with injury to our sacred cause: : -

"In conclusion, theh, Mr. President, whO are
these aristocrats whO tvalleupon their Turkey' car
pets and ride in their splended coaches, arid whose
purses are bursting with untold gold, wrung front
the hard toil of honest, uncomplaining industry!
WhO, I say, are these rich nabobs that th4.shotild
call upon .us, the poor, men of the country, to be
taxed to swell the profits of their lordly inanufac
tures'!" • :
The occasion was' a political meeting the au
dien6 chiefly hard working- men from ' an adjc4n
ing manufactory. The sentiment tval received
with! a bur 4 of applause, amid which the onitor
sat down. I L
'Mr. President.' exclaimed a voice in a note 'so
distinct and peculiar as at once to draw the eycg of
alltO the speaker,—a slender man, with 4 thin and
intellectual aspect, plainly but neatly clad,—.Mr.
President, I am one of those oppressed kroor then
to whom the orator has referred. I desire to speak
-may Ihe heard!' . • • I
Leave being granted, he proceeded air 'follows:
Some writer has remarked that there. is in, than
so h timhle: in life, faithfully reported, but will afford
some useful moral; and as an ounce of experience
is worth a pound of theory, even my life may not
be syithout its use. lam by trade a weaver. Six
Years since I was employed in a manufactory in
Itbride Island. My- employers - were honest and
intelligent, though wealthy man They paid Inc
fair but not high wages; these wages, I however,
were punctually paid, and my .experience has
taught me that a dollar in hand is worth twelve
shillings in promises. I was industrious and fru
gal,jand therefore contented and happy.! My wa
ges udiced not only for my support, but also to
tipennahlate a small surplus. I was pleased with
my ' i condition, and looked forward with the well
grounded hope to
,a happy future. About this
time a speaker came among us ; who used a'rgu
metits precisely similar to (link. employ ed this e
vening. His views Were novel, ingenious and
striking. ,We were captivated ] with his theory.
Before INC thought ourselves Well paid; we now
imagined ourselves oppressed. .1 Before we thought
ourSelves happy, we now began lo think ourselves
miserable. The exchange,for ale: was a bad one,
(fob who would prefer iniSery kntl diSeontent to
•haPpirieSs and peace?) butj I Wa l s too eager in the
pursuit of the theory to regard it's consequences.
'lle told us that the distinetiOns of wealth and
poserty were merely artiticial,havitig their foun
dation in tho superior iviekedness or weakness of
mankind, and wholly unsupported by 'I reason 'or
justice; that we were all alike God's children, and
therefore alike entitled to share in his Natality; that
the., entire f trueture of society was wrong and nee
ded reform; that wealth, as at present employed,.
was merely an engine of oppression; and that the
raniin object of its possessor was to grind the face
of the poor. We were fascinated with these views,
and began tb . conduct accordingly. Our work be-,
'gap to be slighted, and our employers: beian to
complain. Matters rise-from had to worse, until
finally a general combination of the operativeS (I.
being at the bead) suspended, the storks. We
•
w9re.all of us discharged; others were employed,
and in about four days the mills were again in at:-
tisie operation. I now for the:first tine discovered
thin a theory redticed to pr:Mtiec has its Practical
results;' that though it may affirril amusement for
the fancy, it neither clothes a! Man's lack: nor . tilts
hid stomach; and that, so! the best way of , judgim ,
a tree is by its fruNas the best way 1: judging of
a ;theory is by its practieal j accts. 1 formerly
latew myself, happy; I now foinid myself misers=
bit , . I Ifortnerly Was, laying liPmone,; I now was
as rapidly spending itk So fat,d had eertanily not
changed for the better. ! 1 1 . .
? , 111 a short time my. surplus, became.. exhaus
ted; and as my mime haibbeenine somewhat prom
inent as a reformer, I found ittlidieult to get work
frOm any :employer as all alike feared my intlu-'
ence and esaiple.
Poverty now stared me in the face and though
necessity be a hard sehool, , fOols, atria said will
learn in no other. I determined to profit; if possi
ble, by my experience, and set myself to consider
My present condition, and its:causei, I now re.
membered that the speaker whose a ' , Unions had:,
rF
captivated my fancy, practiced: upon very differ. :
eta theory from•ahat lie preached, tlat though he
i ,
denounced wealth, no one was more bseqinous to
the rich; and though lie sympathized vitli the poor
he never would touch the cause of a
,•iiii.M. lima un
less his fee
. (he was a lawyet) . wal paiif, in ad
vance. I -hence concluded ''that a -llan's:acts are,
the best test of his piincipleSrand . t tat when we
-find a man preaching one thing and ractuling an
other; we may reasonably diatibst both his doctrine
and his sincerity. In my own partitular,:roy• the disastrously.!ad operated disastusfy.[ It hd minced rue
