Sifirln 1824 Henry Clay wan one of

Constitution one of the three highest was

lives. Mr. Clay was, et this Cute, Speak
ler of the Helm, and had wary friends.—
They bad the balance of p,,vor. Gen.
Jackson and John Quincy Adams were
pas two prominent cendidvica. A choice
was to be made between them. Mr. Clay
pretend the latter, threw his influence for
him, and thereby his election was se
cured.
In the spring of 18•!5; Mr. Adams was
inaugurated, and Mr. Clay was made his,
Secretary of State.. Immediately it was
charged that Clay's appointment as Score
tary of State was the result of a corrupt
bargain. in pursuance of which Mr. Clay
had induced 'his friends to support and
elect Mr. Adams. • This charge was fierce
ly made ever the whole country. The
leading man in making it was George Kra
mer, an obscure member , of Cm:greet' from
Pennsylvania: Ilfe did it , with the khowl-]
edge, consent and approval of Buchanan, l
who employed him as a mere cat's paw to
do the dirty work in which ho feared to be
publicly known. The charge was investi
gated and proved to be false. But it wee
s good electioneering trick, and it was re
asserted by , the Democratic prose, and more
than anything else contributed to defeat
'Henry Clay in the great Presidential con
, test of 1844. We say, more than any
thing else—probably we should except
Mr. Buchanan's lying declarations that
Polk was a protective tariff men--a false,
hood he knowingly circulated,,as the only
way open to him of being made a Cabinet
offt;er. Mr. Clay, after a time, paid lit
tle attention to the charge of "bargain and
sale," although he had it in his 'pewee, at
any. time, to crush Mr. Buchanan by the
publicatioe of this fact, that during • the
pending , claw .contest:between Jackson
and . Mame, Buchanan- as Jackson's
friend made substantially the same propo.
titian to Mr. Clay; which he afterwns dr
grossly,abused the latter for (as alledged)
having made with Adams 1 The , proof
of this is the following statement, Jaken
from Colton'a Life of Clay, and furnished
by Mr. Clay himself. Read it and note
its contents : ' • •
"Some time in January, 1823, and not long
before the election of President of the. United
States by the House of Representatives, Hon.
James Buchanan, then ti member of the House.
and afterwardsreany vears 'a Senator of the
United-States from-Pennsylvania; who had be.
some a zealous . nod influential supporter of
General Jackson in the preceding canvass, and
was supposed to enjoy his, urthounded confi
, dance, called at the lodgings of Mr. Clay, in
the city.of Washington. Mr, Clay was at the
time, in the room of his only mess-mate in the
the House, his intimate and confidential friend,
Hon. R. P. Letcher, since Governor of Ken
tucky. then also a member of the House—
Shortly after Mt'. Bu chorine's' entry ,into the
room, he introduced the subject of "the ap
proaching Presidential election, and spoke of
the 'certainty of the election of his farerite, add
ing that he would form the moat splendid Cab
inet that the cpuptry ever had. Mr. Letcher
asked, how could he have one more distin
guished than that of bfr. Jefferson, in which
were both Madison and Gallatin? Where'
would he be able tofind equally eminent men ?
Mr.' Buchanan replied he 'would not go out of
this room for a Secretary of State; looking at
Mr. Clay. This gentleman (Mr. Clay) play
fully remarked that he thought there was no
timber there 6t for a Cabinet officer unless it
was Mr. Buchanan himself.
"Mr. Clay. whit p he WM SO hotly assailed
with the charge of bargain, intrizue and cor
ruption, during the Adminiatration ofMr. Ad.
tuns. notified Mr. Buchanan of his intention to
publish the above occurrence, bui by the ear
flai entreaties of that gentleman he mos indu
ced to forbear Goin g so."
Mr. Colton states in a recent letter
; (July 1, 1856.) that this statement was
furnished to him by Mr. Clay—a fact
which was known to several of the, latter's
friends to whom be had mentioned it. Mr.
Colton states further in this letter:
•
"R ainy alao be proper for me to say that
Mr. Clay appended a note to the same docu
ment, advising me to apply to Gov. Letcher
for further information on the same subject:
I accordingly addressed Gov. Leteher, , and
found his lips sealed by a pledge of silence
given to Mr. Buchanan." •
Gov. Letcher had previouslY asked to
he Mlieved of his pledge of seared ; but.
Buchanan declined to do so, and. appealed
to his honor to keeP his faith. Ho is now
dead, as is Mr. Clay; , but fccitunately they
left proof behind them, and Mr, Buchanan
has not dared to deny one of the state
ments
made by Mr. Clay's-friendil
But while Buchanan was thus playing
false to Clay he was also pniaing treach
erous to Jackson. Ho made a publication
on the subject which satisfied no one . and
was jesuitically drawn. Mr.. Clay claim
ed it as a refutation of tho charge of a
bargaid and intrigue , between him and
Adams ; but particular exprearions in the
letter were intended to give Jackson's
friends a hook to hang upon. Jackson
felt this as bad treatment; and so declared
as lately as 1840, when he wrote a letter
to a friend. of which this is an ex
tract:
Ezinfruos, Feb. 28.1844.
"Your observations with regard to Mr
chanan are correct. He thmoed a want of
moral courage in the affair of the intrigue of
Adams and Clay—did not do me justice in
the expose he then made, and lam sine about
that time did believe there was a perfect un
derstanding between Adains and Clay about
the Presidency and the Secretary of State,—
This I am sure of. But whether he viewed
that there was any corruption or not, I know
not, but one thing Ido know, he wished me
to combat them with their own weapons—that
was, to let toy friends say if I was elected I
would make Air. Clay Secretary of State.—
This to me appeared gross corruption, and I
repelled it with that honest indignation as '
[whichj I thought it deserved."
Jackson's adopted eon'(Andrew Jacks.
on,) under date of "Hermitage, June 26,
1856," admits that this a genuine ex
tract from one of the General's. letters,
but says 4 it was written ins moment of ex
ringlet)? This is very lame. The 'main'
point in the letter ishokeon'e ooreboration.

to drive a bargain between Clay and Jack.
son. And would the latter in a moment
lof irritation, write what was false I Those
are not friends of Jackson's who would in
timate so base a thought.
Now what are the facts, briefly stated?
Buchanan wished to corrupt Clay to go
far Jackvon by . proposing if he did, he
should be made Jackson's Secretary of
State. In this be did not succeed. Mr.
Clay preferred Adams to Jackson. and so
wood fur general reasons. Adams was
elected, and Clay was appointed . hia Secre
tary of State. Buchanan meanwhile
pledged Clay and Lather to secrecy con
cerning his conversation with Clay; and I
then induced Kremer to charge Clay with
a corrupt intention in supporting Adams,
Buchanan and his party joined iu this
cry., Clay sought to atop it and proposed
to prove that Buchanan had actually
made a similar proposition to that which
he was denouncing as base in rheextreme.
Buchanan begged' Clay to spare him—pro
fessed friendship, and prevailed upon this
magnanimous heart to sore his neck.
Bulmequently Letcher wished to be re
lieved of his promise, that he might state
his knowledge. Buchanan refused to per
mit him to escapi.from his pledge. In
time, this baseness worked its remedy.—
Jackson found out Buchanan's perfidy,
and be Owed upon record his opinion of
this heartless; man. Clay, before dying,
wrote a statement of the facts, which
Jackson's letter confirms. And now the
nation is rising to hiss this man., off the
Presidential course upon which he should
never have been plead. D.spised by
every intelligent and honorable man in the
country, his mime will, if placed upon his
country's annals, be associated there with
deception, cowardice and treachery, which .
has been rarely paralleled.
Of course, in view of these faces, no
friend of Henry Clay can vote for this uo
scrupulous defamer. Henry Clay knew
James Buohauan thoroughly. He also,
ties left upon record 30 opinion of the
man. It can be found in Clay's recently
published correspondence (pages 617-
120,) it being part of a letter dated June
14, 1861, and written to Mr. Ullman of
Now York touching the Presidential con-I
test of the following year. In that letter!

Gen—Jacksou said Buchanan lacked

and the deception at i this fall's election we

Irr Buchanan's friendr:Toombs. says
that •the election of Fremont would be the

Wendell Philips, the great abolitionist, is
opposed to Fremont because, he says, his
election would "retard the dissolution of
the Union." Theme two extremes are
both really hostile to the existence of. the
Union, and would sooner see it destroyed
than have it administercd on a broad Na
tional basis, doing justice to all sections,
as Fremont promises to do. ..

ID - The "grand demonstration" of the Bu
chanan party at Chambersburg last week is gen
erally admitted to have been a failure in point
of numbers—far below what was anticipated,
under the- bill of attractions previously an
nounced. The "Transcript" says the proces
sion numbered 780, all told. By-the-way, we
notice that the Valley Spirit, the party or
gan at Chambersburg, while giving a glowing
description of the meeting and the delegations
from Cumberland, Dauphin and Lancaster
counties, passes by that delegation from Get
tysburg in profound silence. Even the nota

It also shows that there is a deep our
retie-of opposition to slavery amongst the
laboring whites, in the very region of
slavery itself, that only wants an opportu
nity to manifest itself to tell the North
that they are with us on this question. ha
speaking of his election. the Bt. Louis
Democrat (Benton) says :
"The battle was fought in a great mess.
ure agaidst individeols, end against no
man was this battle fought harder, than a-,
gainst Francis P. Blair, jr. He was
known and recognized as the advocate of
the working men of,St. Louis. he was rid-
Muted as the tuna who defended the rights
of white, labor in preference to that of Slave
labor, he was abused as the man who de
sired to devote the new territories of the
United States to the tillage and agriculture
of white freemen instead of slaves, and yet
as such he has been elected. All honor

Some affect to believe that the numerous
reported outrages upon the Free State set

apocryphal. They don't believe they

New York Evangelist has the f oriowing
in regard to one of the sufferers :--- •
We recently saw and conversil with a
lady from Kansas, whose plain, aim*
story of the wrongs endured by the Free
State settlers was enough to wring tears
of anguish front a rock. She was a lady
and a Christian woman. She had been
accustomed to the cointeris and elegant:tee
of Eastern society. •Site went with her
husband and family nearly a year ago,
from an Eastern city, to find a new home
in Kansas. her husband is a peireeful.
praying men: He has not yet lifted the
Lund of violence against a fellow man.—
Strangely enough, he has counselled for
bearance. even whilst the meraittlers were
almost at lute door. He has hoped, even
°mist hope, that the General Governinent
might yet throw the shield of its promo.
tom between them and their merciless
toes. Even whilst a portion of the town
in which he resides was sacked by the
ruffians. he counselled non-resistance.—
And yet ell this is not enough ; this does
not ... , atisfy the greed of hungry villains.—
It would seem that, in their estimation, he
is too good a man to be on their Pith ; ha
ik, therefore, a marked man ; doomed, if
(hey emelt hint, to the halter or the aoltf
lead. The only hope of escaping their
muriierous clutches is by keeping close to
his own tome. He eaaltfli go ;thrived ;
he cannot leave the Territory. It was
thought, even by a commandant of United
Slates troops, unsafe fer him to arempt lop
reach the Free States. It was thought
equally unsafe for his wife to attempt its
Martin with him. Even the rommandent
of Untied States troops advised her to
leave. with her daughter, a young lady.
and her young children. He could not
ensure their safety if they remained with
the husband slid father. And this is ilia
protection which the United Government
is giving to the actual settlers of Kan—

CHICAGO, August 12.--Advices from Leav
enworth. Kansas, to Wednesday have been
received. The overland "emigrant company
bad entered, Kansas and probably arrived -at
Topekaaafelv. The company of Miuouriana
wbo marched to intercept them returned with
out fighting. The company of dragoons bead
ed by Judge Lecompte, which entered
braska to arrest Gen. Lane, also returned
without effecting the object:
It is rumored that a battle abeurred between
the emigrants and the "Regulators" near the
Nebraska line, but it is not lo s nerally credited.
It was rumored at Nebraska city, on the 1304
that a large force of Missourians and Cartaini
ans had invaded Kansas and blocked up the •
pyblic roads. Volunteers had gone , fOrwarii
to drive them out. •
A letter in the Republican, dated Wbite

Judge Lecorupte delivered an impartial' charge
to the grand jury. The cases before the court
are numerous.

Kansas Pacifica,lon Bills
irrThis‘ bill, now before Congress, is
as our readers aro aware, the Doug
las and Toombs bill, because these Sena
tors have been earnest and active in bring
ing it forvrard and urging its passage. It
is opposed on the ground that while it has,
in some of its aspects, the show of fair
ness!, oit is designed quietly and stealthily
to fasten slavery upon the Territories of
Kansas.. The authors of the bill know
well that the leading Free State men have
:either been driven from the Territoiy or
are now under arrest for constructive tree=
eon, while hundreds of others, hunted
down like wild beasts, have been compelled
to abandon their homes, to save their lives.
Atchison,. Stringfellow Sr, Co., now rule
the rout. So that the Bill would neces
sarily carry out the purposes of the Bor
der Ruffians and make Kansas, what its
author'. wish it to be, a Slave State. That
the opposition to the bill-1s well founded
will appear from the following paragraph
in-the Leavenworth Herald, a paper that
has largely contributed to the outrages in
Kansas, and is open-mouthed to make it a
slave Stater '
"We are surprised that our friends
'should oppose this bill and condemn it •tau

touch better that tfirqueatiou of Slavery
:should come up for fluid decision by the
popular vote of Kansan on the first Mon
day of November next, than in a year or
, two front this time ? Our party has now
•the majority in the Territory ; but wheth
er it will retain that majority is to our
allied a matter of ;midi doubt. Every one
knows that the capacity of the Northern ,
States for colonization is far superior to ;
4ltat of the Southern States. Then we say :
let this bill,paso, and let the question be
'brought up when 'bur party has a major-1
ity in the Territory. We regard the bill
eminently wise and just, and believe
that, if it takes effect, Kansas trill be a'
