01-'T'he Advocate thinks that if Henry Clay
- Ia been in the Senate he would have supported
the latii - Tetiff Bill, and wishes to claim for Mr
'Oa, the merit of baying influenced the Senators
; . ,ftom Kentucky to vote in favor of it. The Advo.
4[2) claims for . Mr. Clay merit, of which his course
OD ttde subject would entirely dispossess him. It
the general belief that he would have been
d with the defeat of the Tariff. And if the
of his especial friends prove any thing on
*,.'tirsubject, the tact that Mr. Speaker White, Win.
coat Johnsart, Mr. Underwood. Mr. &coal ey, and
e thers in the lower House, voted against the late
Bill, would clearly show bow Mr. Clay's influence
`Weis cast.
it is in perfect keeping with Mr. Clay's'
ettli.that he should have opposed the late bill.—
And ire,appeal to the friends of Home I odustry,—
tltioss y;:; incerely desire that the labor and pro
of the country should have per.
-fotection—to such even among the
'g, sO would have this subject withdrawn from
field of party strife—for the truth of our facts'
winch ive state, that to the legislation of the Dem
neratic party we are indebted fur any measures
'Oink have favor ably influenced Domestic Men-'
Ufacturee, including all the interests of labor.—
While to Henry Clay's compromise we aro in
debted, for the horizontal plan of a reduction of
duties to 20 per cent. We see then, thaqwhile,
for party purposes, the whiga set up clairrik to be
the exclusive friends of protection, they are in
fact hose who, by the compromise, practically
waived the policy of discriminating duties in fa.
vor of home industry. We do not say that the
Compromise, at the time and under the circum
stances, was wrong, for it was the work of both
parties, for peace. But we do say, that if the po
sitibn-of the country on the subject of the Tariff,
from that cause, has been disastrous, it is more to
Henry Clay than to others we owe that position,
,inasmuch as the measures which placed us in that
position wore his niresures. Ile introduced the
Compromise Bill and cffzeted its passage, and for
that very measure he has been lauded by the
Whigkof the South: and by them, at least, lie is
still held up as its advocate. We do not now intro
duce these remarks so much as a reflection on Mr.
Clay himself, or on his friends, as to show that
hazards and injuries to American labor had a
whigorigin. Every one knows that no party in
the South will be found to advocate the protec lion
of home industry. We ad.nit that some of our
prominent men in the South opposed it, but then
that portion oft he Democratic party in the South
which opposes a proper discriminating tariff of
duties, has not }et had, and is not likely to have
sufficient influence to hinder its existence. On the
contrary, a discriminating tariff originated with
the Democratic party, and was sit aside by the
concessions of Mr. Clay to those who oppnvd
it.—
Everyone, observant of the past, and capable of
noting the signs for the future, must perceive,
that. if a permanent tariff shall i xist in this coun
try, the Democratic party must keep it in being.
- What hope can the country have from a party
every where beaten down, (as are the whip) and
incapable, from causes inherent and self destrue
uf a , ...complishing any great public measure?
T:t wilt satisfy the reasonable expectations of the
friends of hone Industry tht' ti cir essential in.,
threats will sow] b. io hands haling the will and
power to s3cure those interests. Mr. Clay advi
ses his friends to be satisfied with just such dis
arienination as the democratic party advocates,
euticbukes them for contending about terms.—
Surely 14 a rose by any other name would smell
. svfeet7- 7 why then should the public look fur
names aanWnds, neyond the actual protection
which isiolgttWer the labor of the country?—
seeing tl4is - now actually secured by Demo.
antic v4l.'in both Houses of Congress, end
against many of 141 r. Clay's chief advocates. It is
- perfectly preposterous fur the friends of Mr. Clay,
in-the face of facts and history, to atompt to gain
aim popularity, or their party strength, as the es
chtsive champions of the Tariff.

en. *aeon said something like this;
so , say Clay and all the Whigs. The
most obstinate aristocrat in the country
would ritttetty that they would want a "na
tional institution of some kind" if it was
not,"absolutely necessary."
We think it hardly worth while to say
more on this subject. Intelligent working
men know that the only means to preserve
their rights is by sustaining the principles
of the Democratic party. We think they
cannot be bamboozled into the support of
a faction that is afraid directly to avow its
principles, but indirectly declares itself in
favor of one of the most monstrous meas
ures of Federalism.

ICP The Chronicle says that we have
"insinuated" an untruth, in stating that the
proprietor of that paper, in his reply to the
Herald, insulted Col. Johnson: , Now
we "insinuate" nothing about the matter.
We say positively that the Chronicle did
insult Col. Johnson; and we will prove it
by the following extract from the proprie.

We would like to know who this "DE M.

those who chose to make the Chronicle the

is "trying to prevail upon us to . say one

to do with the votes of the wiligs in Con

here inquire. But we will give an example
of the,shuffling and unfair course of the Ga
zette, and leave it for the present.
.The
editor says that "we know" that the "three
northern whigs" who voted against the
Tariff were 'warmly favorable to it.' In the
first place we do not know any such thins;
(how should we?) and in the second, we
ask any man who is not blinded by parti.
zan passion, to say, -if thpre is any excuse
for the "three northern, whigs" who paid
abject sobmission to the' "behest of party,"
as to vote against their own sober judgment
and the admitted interests of their constitu•
ents? But while the Gazette thus easily
excuses its own friends it denounces without
measure the "northern loco locos" who
voted against the Bill. - .They, it asserts
voted from "pure opposition to the Bill."
We shall not stop to ai4e excuses for these
gentlemen, nor to erfitinerate the reasons
they gave for their votes—but will leave the
editor, for the present, to the quiet contem
plation of his own unfairness and gross in
consistency.
New Jersey.
The democrats of this State are making
active preparations for the election in No
vember, and they appear to be quite confi- '
dent of giving the "Broad Seal" party a
Waterloo - defeat. The Morris Canal and
Banking Company, which has heretofore
been a'formidable engine in the hands of the
federalists in carrying on their electioneer
ing frauds, is now bankrupt and power
-11 less, and unable to overwhelm the honest
people with full blown corruptions of char
tered privileges. The contest is now one
of men, and in all such contests the demo
crats feel confident of success. /
The federalists of Massachusetts have

strong indignation throughout the State, and
the peals of democratic thunder that are
issued against the fraud, make the ge'rry
manderers tremble for the safety of their
party, even in the witch -burning, blue-light
commonwealth of Massachusetts.
3 - The Gazette refuses stubbornly to
call on Mr. Darsie fur information respect
ing Mi. Lightner's extra pay, and evades
reply to our article itself, liy quoting from
the antimasonic organ at Harrisburgh.—
This evasion will not do, Mr. White; the
charge of disreputable official conduct has
been made against one of your party whom
you have repeate , lly held up as a bright
example of political honesty and worth;
you have been referred to your own Sena
tor for proof of the trutE or falsity of the
charge and nothing less than a plain expla
nation of the matter will satisfy the public
mind.
It would be well for Mr. Darsie, also, to
explain to his constituents, his motives for
compelling the tax-payers of the state ID
pay Mr. Lightner between one and two
hundred dollars for attending to lis own
business.
The Herald denounces the Tax Bill
passed by the last Legislature. The Her
ald knows very well that the measure was
resorted to with the view of removing a
portion of the onerous burden of debt un
der which the State is groaning. If the
Herald don't wish to see that debt cancel
ed, let it declare for Repudiation at once,
and not "whip the devil round the stump"
in this manner.

ceived at New Orleans. The Mexican
squadron sailed from Vera Cruz on the
15th ult. It took the first division of the
Mexican troops destined forthe subjugation

Yucatan is to punish the natives and get

Courage, like other qualities, has ,its va
rieties. Some men are born brave, oth
ers
acquire intrepidity from example, and
even a timid spirit may be stimulated by
action, until personal apprehension is o
vercome. Amidst the crush of battle the
dullest soul catches a glorious impulse,and
for the time, casts off its natural torpidity.
To exert, however, that mental calmness
which conveys in brief and lucid language
the details of plans of action, requiring the
agency of many, and whose success the
misconception of an individual might des
troy; this demands a philosophic concen
tration of thought which many, found fore
most in the fight, never can obtain. This,

"Stale and tooinliaitYkii4i."' ThiAnti Binh
speech of Henry Clay in 1811, is neither stale nor
worn out; and all the minions of Aristocracy can
tear it out trent the Archives -of earth.. It is a
legacy of intellectual : .wealth,: bequeathed by,
iii
author to the deMocrecY of the werld.. It canobt
be revoked, cancelled or worn out. Its cogent
logic is more taunting , to the Mushroom nobility
than the. Morning Post; and its figures of speech
display far better taste than the chanticleer rhet
oric of the Herald.
"The Post should have gone a little further, and
given Mr. Clay's reasons for a change of opinion
on that question."
"Mr. Clay's reasons!" Witat power has. the
Post over the books of the Itlnited States Bank?
That in,titte ion refused to submit its books to the
investigetton of a committee appointed by Con
gress for that purpose. If that committee had
been, or if the Morning POat were permitted to
examine rheboolis of the lateiUnited,States Bank,
there would, in'all probability, be no particular
scarcity of "'Mr. Clay's reasons for a change of
opinion." As it is, however, even the knowing
Herald is obliged to pick up es post facto reasons
frcen one of Henry Clay's stump speeches in 1832,•
about sixteen years after the change in which he
quotes a few reasons from another old stump
speech of his own, delivered before his constitu
ents at Lexington, as a curt of apology for his
"change of opinion."
:Mr. Clay's reasons forsooth! Hear him give
his own reasons.
"But how stood the cas3 in 1816, when he (Mr.
Clay) was called upon again to examine the pow^
ers of the General Government to incorporate a
National Bank? A total change of cacumstances
was presented; events of the utmost magnitude
had intervened."
And has it come to this! Do the powers of the
Genera! Government depend on circumstances?
Is the Constitution governed by the temperature
ofthe political atmosphere? Is the whole moral
ftbric of our government, in which are deposited
the happiness of seventeen millions of human be
ings, and the hopes of the civiliz:cl world, a mere
coot, ogency?
But giye Mr. Clay's rcas , ns the greate- t force;
admit, for the sake of argument, that a change cf
circumstat , c , s may actually vary the powers of
the General G ,vernment. Then, according to
Henry Clay's principles and pros ice, Congress
has power, under cc: tain circumstances, to create
a ational Bank; but, under other circumstances,
Congress has no such power. Now suppose, un
der the firs: state of ci-cumstances, Congress
should charter a National Bunk fur thirty years:
and suppose further, that in the course of five or
ten years, circumstances should so change that
Congress would not have power to charter such
Bank. Then, there vt ould be in existence, an in
stitution confessedly unconstitutional, with a
charter extending a quarter of a century into the
future. \S'irat is the remedy? Repeal? Such a
proposition, Mr. Clay says, "wuul k l be frowned
down." Tu be consistent, even under his latitudi
narian construction of the Constitution, Mr.
Clay must change his opinion once more, and
adopt the doctrine of the repeatability of bank

And now most gracious and pui:sant Herald, do,
in' the plenitude of your kindness, pardon the
,dorning Post for melting one more extract from
a speech of Henry Clay, of which his biographers
Georg.; Pun , ice, says: "Nothing iquai to it can
he found in any o: the numerous discussions
which t r. lank question has called forth. lie
seemed to h.iid the strength of his antagonists in
the hollow of his Ii an.?." And if he was able to
hold all Congress it is hoped he will be able to
hold rile astute iientleinen of the ,Morning Herald.
"Like the Virginia justice, (said Jr. Clay) you
tell the man, those turkey had been sto'eti, that
your books of pr. cedents furnish no form for his
case; but then you will grant him a precept to
search for a cow, and, when looking for that, he
may possibly find his turkey'. You say to this
corporation, we cannot authorize , ou to discou nt—
to emit paper—to regulate commerce—no! our
books have no precedents of that kind. ttutithen
we can author ize you to collect the revenue, and
whilst occupied with that, you May do whatever
else you please."
In conclusion. Mr. Herald, it you arc satisfied
with Mr. Clay's real. ns for voting against the
hank bill in 1811, as well as for it in 1816, enough
said, give us your hand. A word, however, at
parting as to your peculiarly sarcastic taunt on
the tariff. In the first place, it is presumed that
there is not naw, arid that there never has been
an anti tariff man in the United States. Even
the nullifiers were satisfied with a tariff for reve
nue. And, as to the Democrats, they are now.
an I always have bean in favor of a judicious tar ,
iff, sufficient to met the wants of the government,
and so adjusted as to afford protection to the me
chanical and manufacturing, without burdening
the agricultural and planting interests.
In a speech delivered in the House of Repre
sentatives, June 2):h, lion. John:Van Buren
said:
"I think I can trafeh for the democracy on this
floor, that they arc not actuated by captious op
position; restore to the Treasury the Nation the
proceeds of the sales of the public lands end they
will cheerfully vote for such a tatu:f as will afford
revenue su cleat to sustain ain urlrnt and eco
nomical government upon liberal and comprehen
sive views."
But the democracy are not new, and never
have been, in favor of ta.sing the farmers and me
cpanics twenty per cent. on every plow, hoe, horse
shoe, and horse nail; and at the same time al
lowing rail road companies to import iron free of
duty, according to the Whig tariff bill proposed at
the Extra Session. in 1841. The democracy are

hered that, on the 4th of September 1841, Henry
Clay, and nice other daring Whigs, voted against
a motion to place tea and et.ffee among the free
articles. And let it be remembered that Levi
Woodbury in 1841, and Silas- Wright jr in 1842,
moved to increase the duty on wool, as al PROTEC

Clay and his compeers. And let it be remember

The cost of the last Congress.—Many
of our exchange !papets are enlightening
their readers on the cost of the last Con
greas. In round numbers the Madisonian
puts down the amount, for the 'House of
Representatives, at one million and a half
of dollars. If this amount was all that the
people have to pay. great as - it-ie, it would

form proper estimate of the cost to the pen
ple,we must take - into the account the con
stant Jo=s by the suspensitin of almost eve—
ry kind of business. W ' e= do not doubt
