was elected to represent this district in Congress

CLAN ON ENIA.NO*ATION:
Henry Clay has written a letter to a friend in
Kentucky, in which he tikes strong grontds in
favor of the Emancipation of slaves, as the only
triode by which the sYstericof slavery can be erad;
icated from the land: The letter has been called
forth by the request of same of the citizens of Ilezi-;
tacky, whose Constitution is about haina amend=
ed. Desiring to take thelead in the noble CIIII2IB
of emincipstietve portion of the citizens of that
State have consulted Mr. Clay upon this subject
wbohas not hesitated -to express himself freely
upon the matter. Ho is its favor of the gradual ,
emancipation of slaves by colonization. It is
known: that ii.'colony of blacks, 'consisting of
emancipated slaves. is wive in existence in Afri
ca who are progressing remarkably well. Ha
kim the slaves are' colonized Mr. Clay thinks
their emanci'patioi3 would be productive of much
wretchedness and misery He suggests that
101 l slaves from after a certain date, 1855 or .
1860, remain slaves until the age of twenty five,
I and afterwards be hired "oat, under the antliori
ty of the State, for aperiod not exceeding three.
years in order to raise a sum sufficient to defray
the expenses of their transportation toile colony
and to provide them an outfit for six months af
ter their arrival at that place. The offspring of
those who are to be free at twenty-five, should
be free frem their birth, bat upon condition that
they should be apprenticed until they are twen
ty-one, and be also subject to be hired out for.
the purpose of raising money to meet the etpen
sea of the colony; and their subsistence for the
first six moths: The colonization of the blacks
as they are emancipated ho thinks indispensably ;
necessary to their welfare. These are the prin
ciple features of the letter, and will no doubt
command universal attention. The final eradica
tion of slavery from the land, upon whose fair
name it has loug been a blot, is an object which,
every lover of liberty must desire to see COO.
summated. The Proud staud Mr. Clay has tak
en upon the subject must redound greatly to the
honor of the sage of Ashland: Himself a slave
balder, ho has the frankuess,,wh id] is character
istic of the man, to propose a plan for the eman
cipation of slaves, notwithstanding the influence
by which he is thrronnded. That would . ke a
proud day for the American people which would
witness the emancipation of slaves by coloninzn
tion. .We aro no abolitionist in the strict sense

of the word but we do not hesitate to express our
hostility to slavery. Beside fettering a class of
human beings, the majority of them for life, the
effects of this system arc most detrimentally felt.
It is time, therefore:that the subjeut of emanci
pation is being agitated, and the sentiments of
Clay. who has fignred so largely upon the pub
lic stage, and who is prompted by no other mo
tive than patriotism, cannot but have a weighty
influence upon a question of such vast importance.
TIM GQI4) E4XclTiOlgr?T.
The recent excitement in reiard to the gold of
California.* as has been remarked by a conical
pantry, by no means the first gold excitement to
which our markets have been exposed. In the
year 1803, a negro found in North Carolina a
lump of gold weighing 27 lbs., worth some $B,-
000, and since that time many mines have been
diserriered end worked in Virginia, North Caroli
na, South Caroline, Georgia, Alabama and Lou-
Wane. In 1830, nearly as great an excitement
prevailed in relation to them, as does now in refer
ence to California. Persons from all quarter.
crowded into those regions, and the product was
then estimated et $5,000 per annum. • Gradually,
however; hopes failed to be realized. Although
the mines became richer es they were worked,
the business was found in a long run less profit
aide than otbets. Hands were withdrawn to cot,
ton fields. COmpanics dissolved and the work
was continued only by farmers and others, who
dig gold only when otherwise unemployed. The
census gave the number of smelting concerns at
156, and the product for 1839, $526.405. From
1824 down to 1848, $14,000 ,000havebeen real
ized from those mines. The new excitement in
California is sustained by official reports, and by
the arrival of considerable quantities of gold at
New York, of great purity, say 22 carats fine. A
"carat" is a weight of four grains, used in weigh
ing diamonds, but used in reference to gold, the
mars is supposed to weigh 24 carats, 12 grains
each, and .22 carats fine"means there are
carats of pure gold and 2 estate of alloy, end this
22 carats is about the fineness of our gold coin
or, as expressed in the mint term, 2Z carats is 917
t housand fine.
Gen. Cass bas already comigteced the work of
drawing "extra pay." Late in the evening of
the last day of the late Congress, the General
took hisses% Ousting his predecessor. The Gen
eral, we understand, added $9OO to hisbill for the
couple of hours legislation he did in that short
time. It has also been suggested he designed
drawing "extra" mileage. for attending the 30th
and 31st Congress. This suggestion does not
seem much out of the way, when we take into
consideration that the General is yet very fond of
Nana allowances," notwithstanding he is im
mensely wealthy, m oat of which has been drawn
from the Government. The above may seem
strange, but it is characteristie,of his foimer eon•
duet.

portrait of St. Patrick has been executed by Jones

it is a pretty fair specimen of his skill to the an.—

"He is, to en extent, rare even in this country

ed himself, by the most strenuous efforts, from
poverty to his present place. • To illustrate his
exertions and his merino in this regard, we may,
without impropriety, repeat here a remark 'we
heard him make, at a dinner of the graduates of
his Alma Maler—the University of Vermont—
over a year ago. speaking of one of the early
Presidents of that Institution, who Was in office
while he was in college, HMI said he neverfirsard
him utter what teemed to him'a harsh reproof, but
once, and that was when he directed him never
ngain to appear in the recitation room, 'without
shoes. The harshness of, the iimark, he said.
sprung from ths fact that ha had no shoes. He
procured some, however, and for the sake of "econ
omy, carrierhthem in his hand to the door of
the recitation room, and then put them on."

afford to sell at prices that will deli competition by

to cover interest and losses accruing from long credit.
In a word I found that those buyers who from a proper
