CLAY AND THE FARMERS AND WoHKINGMEN... -
Bitter and contemptuous as have been the expressions
GC many of the learilkg federal statesmen towards the
tmling produoers of wealth, none have been more reck
less in offering their insults than Henry Choy, the Whig
candidate for the Presidency. While be watched with
a jealous eye over the interests of the capitalists, the
speculator and stock rambler, he was never found ma
king any effort for the benefit of the working people,
but on the contrary, was always futemost in opposing
any - measure diet would tend to make them less de
pendant on the favor of the rich. While he declared
that the occupation of the honest format-aid not require
proieetias, he used all the ((forts in his power to pro
test mere capitalists and to give to the rich man's
purse more than ho would to the farmer's honest lubor.
The reckless speculator also shared in his kind con
sideration. He labored with nil the energy of his
mind to give this class of his friends a Bank, to aid
them in their schemes of nggrandiz tmont without toil,
and at the same time endeavored to preserve the i
Bankrupt Law on the stew.° books, so that if they
should be unfortunate in their plans of speculation, I
they could by an easy process discharge all liabilities.
- But while be was struggling to serve these classes
of eon-producers, we search the public records in vain
to find any effort that be made for the benefit of the
vmeicingmen of the country. His days and nights I
were spent in endeavoringto pass Bank bills and pre
serve Bankrupt laws, but we do not find him maktng
The shghtest effort to give adequate protection to the
industrial portion of the people. He can speak a day
in fever of an "old fashioned United States Bank,"
—such as the Pernsylvania institution that closed its
career by robbing the public of thirty-six millions—but
he has not one word to say in favor of a Tariff. He
did not hesitate to propose to violate the Constitution
to carry his favorite Bank schemes, but when the Tar
ifl which was to benefit the people at large, was
*beet being brought before Congress, he uttered his
maledictions upon those who had thwarted his schemes,
aid deli from the Senate. •
His efforts have been alike directed against the la
borers employed in manufactering.and the errors of the
hardy agriculturists winos, enterprising spirits led
them to the forest to find themselves a home on the
unsealed lands of the Government. The democratic
statesmen advocated the wise policy of holding out
advantages sufficient to induce settlers to improve the
public domain, and thus make 'it a source of wealth
to the country . But Henry Clay's feeling towards
the poor would not permit him to favor al measure that
would tend to elevate them above the position of the
rdaves that chop his wood and black his shoes, and he
acerdingly opposed every proposition to give the poor
settler privileges equal to those that were granted to
the wealthy land speculator.
In his opposition to granting pre-emption tights to
settlers, his denunciations were principally hurled a
gainst the poor emigrants, and he called up all the
power of malignant invective to induce Congress to
proscribe them. The following extract from one of
his speeches on the subject, will show what kind of
feelings be entertained for them:
" But the honorable Senator from Pennsylvania has
alluded eulogistically to foreigners. Does he mean to
.compare the De Kali's, the Steuhens, the Lafayettes,
the Pulnskis, with the hordes of foreign paupers that
are constantly flooding our shores? There were other
foreigners who mingled in our Revolutionary struggle,
but en the cher side; the Hessians,--nnd can they be
compared with those gallant men who came here to
aid in the cause of struggling liberty? He thought this
government had been quit; as liberal in its policy to-
wards foreigners, as was proper or desirable: and no
Senator would vote against eke proposition of the Sen
sate' from Maryland with more pleasure than that with
which he would vote for it."
Seth is iris apinimi of the poor but honest emigrants
sabo seek to gain an honorable livelihood by eultivat,
- in ear wild lands, and by their improvements to add
to the wealth of the country; and the settlers in gene
ral, native and adopted, he denounced as a "lassies*
rabbit. Such is the candidate that the whig party
swish the workingmen of the country to place in the
nesidentiol Chair!

'WALTLA FORWAILD. 01KtsTCCt?•'—Tbe Cleve
land Herald, a Caen paper, announced that "Walter
Forward, of Kentucky," would address the whigs ai
the Clay Club House in Cleveland. There can be no
doubt but be alludes to Walter Forward, of this city,
I once a lawyer in good practice. but now reduced to
the melancholy strait of supplying the place of the
Buckeye'Macksmith on the stump—tbe only difference
between him and Bear being that he is more expensive
and less effective than his Buckeye co-laboter. When
the wbigs obtain amanition for another of their "great
guns" to "go off" on a politicial pi Ig timage, they should
get one who is known at least a s far from home as
Cleveland. The w higs of that city would be able to
discover that their visitor was not from "Kentucky,"
when they would hear him (he spoke 'here before Clay
wrote I is last letter,) launch out against Texas.
rir The American, from lack of something else
to talk about, is endeavoring to keep up a discussion
respecting the "three groans for Eltzabeth " To help
him in his efforts he has obtained a certificate from
another of Mr Cunningham's gents, corroborating the
first statement made. We conceive that the card pub
lished in our paper yesterday morning, signed by the
persons who are accused of offering the insult to Eliza
beth, is a sufficient refutatatiun of thn caluatny and we
do not believe that the certificates of all prospective
expectants in the whig party could make any other im
pression on the public mind..
"Not A CENT Felt PftoTECTluX."—This is the
motto of the Clay men in the South, while in the
North they declare that their party is in favor of Pro
tection. The following resolutions were adopted at a
meeting of the Eden& of Clay in Putnam county.
Georgia. and we believe that they set forth the true
principles of Mr Clay on the Tariff. He implored
Congress not to raise the question of Protection. and
the Georgia whigs. in accordance with kis wishes, de
clare that they WILL NOT PAY A CENT FOR
PROTECTION. The following are the resolutions:
"Resolved, 3, That we consider him pledged to
abide the spirit of the Compromise Act, and that at
this time we look to him as being the only one in the
country whose influence can carry out triumphantly the
principles contained in said act.
"Resoled, 4. That as good citizens, we are ever
willing to pay any Tariff for the purpose of Revenue,
but NOT A CENT FOR PROTECTION."
ga'The Whigs of the South are eery much alarm
ed for their party in du.' section of the country, lest
they should believe thut Mr Clay is in favor of a Pro
tective Tuff. They give the following extract from
one of his speeches to prove how strong are his free
trade predeliction.:
'•Lot me not be misundenmx)d--end I eatreat that
I may nut be teirrepresfated.—/ am NOT advoca
ting the revive, of a HIGH P ROTECTIV F. TA R
IFF. I AM FOR ABIDING BY THE PRINCI
PLES OF THE COMPROMISE ACT."
Was not the Gazette right when it said that the
man who advocated such antiluotection doctrine had
"throttled the Tariff'!"
MR BUCH•N•N TAKING "THE STUNIT.".—We learn
with gratification from the Democratic Union, that our
distinguished BUCHANAN will "take the stump" for
Polk. Dallas and Shuok, commencing early ioSeptem
ber, and continuing to the cud of the campaign. He
was to have been present at the nominating conven
tion held in Harrisburg,' on the id, at Danville, Col
umbia county. on the Stb, at Towanda, on the 10th—
and at Milton on the 14th.
We hoprthat Mr Buchanan will not fail to be at
our Convention on the 19th. Thousands of the de
mocracy, not only of Western Pennsylvania, butof Ohio
and Virginia, will be here to greet him.
PRIZE BANNER FLAG STAFF
A staff for the prize Banner arrived here on Sunday
the Ist Mgt, on board the Mingo Chief, Captain Deven.
ny. it was cut by Mr Clay, at Ashland, and sent to the
Ladies of Pittsburgh preparing the banner. LAge. ,
The Age mint be mistaken about Mr Clay having
cal the pole. It is well known that he declined he
would not chop his own wood—be keeps slaves fur
such labor, and if he is not permitted to bare colored
slaves for that purpaise he insists that he mu.t have
while ones. The Age a ill please correct, and state
that Mr Clay made his slaves cut the pole.
FULIC L .—On Sunday morning, the 18th
instant, the large tannery establishment at Levant vil
lage, Maine, owned by Mr Tufts, of Levant, and Mr
Southwick, of Danvers, Mau., together with a large
amountofstock, was entirely consumed by firs. Also
the dwelling house of Widow Hodson. Loss estima
ted at $50,000. Insurance $5OOO.
HENRY CLAY AND AARON BURR
Any intelligent man who is familiar with the history
of our country, most, when it is mentioned, be struck
with the similarity in the character, conduct, career,
&c. of these two men, I propose to notice a few of
these points of resemblance—
Aaron Barr was the sea of a clergyman—so teas
Henry Clay.
Aram Burr, in his early life, served his country
faithfully during the revolution. Henry Clay. in his
early life, served his country by advocating the policy
of protection.
Aaron Burr lost the confidence of his friends and
of the whole country by his western conspiracy. Henri
Clay undid all be had done f.rr protection by advocat
ing his Compromise bill.
Aaron Barr belonged at feat to the Democratic
party—so did Henry Clay.
Aaron Burr was fostered and petted and promoted
by the Democratic party—so was Henry Clay
Aaron Burr was accused of bargain and sale while
the election of president was pending in t e House of
Representatives in 1301. Henry Clay was accused
of bargain and sale while the election of president was
pending in the House in 1825.
Aaron Burr was discarded from the ranks of the
democratic party for his conduct to Thomas JefFet son,
in 1201. Henry Clay was discarded hem the demo
cratic party for his conduct to Andrew Jackson, in
1825.
Aarca Burr was an immoral man—so is Henry
Clay,
Aaron Barr was a duellist—so is Heury Clay.
Alamo Burr was the first and only Vice President
who ever faught a duel; Henry Cloy was the first'
and only Seurcuiry of State who ever fought a duel.
Aaron Barr, in a duel killed Alexander Hamilton
who served with him in establishing the indepencence
of nur eountry, Henry Clay tried to kill John Ran
dolph, a brother champion in the democratic ranks.
Honest. guileless, unsespectingJames Madison urg
ed lgathirtgion to appoint Burr minister to France;
Washingsse, however, knew him to be an "immoral
man" and+►nnM not oppoint him. The same honest
and guileless Madison appointed Henry Clay Commis
sioner to Ghent, along with ~lieltnQ Adams, Albert
fialkain and James A Bayard,. Thomas Jefferson ac
cused Aaron Purr of treason. Andrew Jackson accu
sed Henry Clay of bargaining to defraud the people
of their choice of President..
Aaron Barr died a disappointed man. Henry
Clay
Time will tell.
To conclude, it is not a little singular that these -two
men eho have so many points of resemblituce in char
acter and history, should have a striking similarity in
the orthography of their names. Each has nine-let
tersin their whole namea,eech five lemersin their Chris
tian acmes and five in their surnames. Each has fonr
vowels atnd ¢ve consonants in their names.

MURDER-CONFESSION-TRIAL AND EXI•
CUMIN - OF THE MURDERERS.
A few days since, we copied 4 paragraph from th..!
Van Buren (Ark) Whig, noticing the hanging of four
men in Texas, for the murder of Indians. Col W S
Reeves. of Arkansas, has furnished the Von Buren
I ntelligencer with the following part icultu s of the affair
as embraced in the confession of L Rhy, one of the
miscreants :
Andy Jones. White and Read. came to my braise
and proposed tokill a party of Italians who were en
camped about 2i miles above my 110111H1 on South Sul
phur. At first I objected, but they insisted—we went,
and I prevailed on them to return. Upon our return.
we heard of Mitchell ; and Jones obt.erved, that if it
was the same Mitchell that he knew, he vies of the
'right sort.' Jones went to Mr Mearbes to get steel
corn, on his route hack ho met with Mitchell, and they
came to my house and commenced talking about killing
the Indians. Again I endeavored to persuade them
not to kill them, but to nu effect They stared, and I
went with them. When we arrived at the ramp,
which consisted of thtee men, and two buys of the
Delaware tribe, Jones shot one of tLem—Rrad .hot
another. Both were instantly killed. Mitchell snap
ped at one, and benthis gun by ablow upon the Indian's
head, who nut oif;. they told ase to pursue him, which
I did, and run about eighty yards, and then shut at
him.
When Mitchell came up, he asked me which way
he went; I told him to wait until I loaded my gun, and
I would show bun. We pursued him some distance.
On our return back, we came by where a little Indian
boy lay dead; I asked Mitchell who killed him; he said
he caught him and Read stabbed isiw . with his knife.
One Indian man (wounded) made his escape, also a
boy uninjured. The property taken from die Italians,
were 12 horses, 4 gusts. 3 brass kettles, some saddles
and about 10 ten deer skins, all of which was equally
divided between as. (five in number) At this time,
Jones, White„-Read and Mitchell, have in their pos
session a negro man, who they say they took up in
the prairies. The last conversation I heard them have,
they were talking of running this negro off and selling
him. Jove, and White had conditionally sold their
part to Mitchell and Read. Read observed that ho
had done almost everythine ° a tarn could do, hot as
to running negrocs, he said, be did not know whether
he was a secure hand or not. Mitchell said that he
had "dealt in the article some," and the only way was
to sell him and ask him to meet you in some remote
place, and make clean work of him. meaning to k;11
him. Read told me that Jones and White had killed
a man in the State of Arkansas, by the name of Muss;
he said that some man by the name of Pierey hired
them to kill him who gave them a race mare, a rifle
gun, and premised some money. White and Jones
way-laid the cornfield until Moss came to work.—
Jones fired first, according to agreement, and killed
him. They got the race mareand carried her to Mis
souri, and placed in the hands of John White.sides, wins
with Elias Rice, ran her off.
Col R. says the trial was conducted In the follow
ing manner:
The company on the ground consisted of about 250
persons, who selected' four of the oldest settlers in the
country to choose a jury of 12, which was selected
from different parts; and of the most respectable men
in the country. The prisoners were asked if they had
any objection to be tried before this tribunal, to which
they had none.—The kiry was absent a short time
and returned a vertlictagainst Jones, White and Mich
ell, and sentenced them to ho hunt!, but was divided
in opinion respecting Ray, who made the confession.
The verdict was submitted to the company, who form
edthemselv,s in a hollow square. when a vote was ta
ken. The vote was unanimous to hang Jones, White
and Mitchell. In the case of Ray, a few were for spa
ring him, because he coefessed, but a large majority
voted to hang him; and the next day they were all ex
alted.
Just as ere Suppos e d.—lt seems by the Globe that
there is really.. southern edition of Clay's Raleigh
speech containing views on the same subject in the
northers edition. According to the Globe both edi
tions were printed at one office. and in doing them up
to forward to their respective destinations, they made
ratbor a serious blunder by sending several packages of
those designed for the South, to the North. After dis
covering their mistake, thee immediately took mess
ut es to recover the missent Joeument s. Whether suc
cessful or not we have not exactly the means of know
ing —Dent. Union.
TH E Coeros Cnor.—From what we have recently
seen of the cotton crop in the Eastern part of the State,
and from what we have beard in the other upland sec
tions, we anticipate an abundont crop. It is true that
great destruction bus been done to it by cicerones
and overflows on the great and some of the smaller ri
vers: the aggregate yield, notwithstanding, will be
giCater than that of last year by revarahhousattld Wes.

BLOODY AFFFRAY AT ST. LOUIS.
On Friday last a bloody iffmttook piece on board
the steamboat Lasalle, lying at the wharf at St. Louis,
between Wm. C Frethingham, eagireer, and F. J.
Bell, melee( the boat, in which the latter lost his life.
They had a difficuhy at Utica„ no the Illinois river, the
previous night, which was renewed and increased on
their arrival at the above port, and Frutbinginon was,
in consequence, discharged. In the afternoon thepar
ties met on the deck of the boat, when a scuffle ensued
and Frethingham was knocked ur fell overboard: He
swam round to the stem and got on horrid again, but
the captain ordered him off. Bell was standing at the
end of the staging an&Frodringham picked up a stone,
advanced a few feet, threw it, but missed his obje c t,—
Bell retreated, Frothitigham advanced—they met,
fought, fell, Bell uppermost' and blows were inflicted
on FrOthinginsm. Meanwhile the latter got out a knife
with which he caused the death of his antagonist- lie
lived about twenty minutes. Frotbingham was bloody
and much bruised when he was taken by the Marshall
before justices Crams and Colon. The examination
was going nat last accounts. Thus has another aw.
fel tragedy been added to the already frightful cata
logue.—Ciacianati Cornin(rcial.
Caret Cos:tint/jowly Hold it.—Honorabse Fran
cis Jackson, formerly a member ofCongress, and Pres
ident of the... Boston Anti-slavery Society, is out in
a letter in the "Boston Courier," addressed to the
Governor of Massachusetts. He returns to the latter
his commission of Justice of the Peace, which be has
held for many years, and assigns his reason. He says
that on entering on the duties of the office, be compli.
e•l with the requirements of the law, by taking an oath
to support the Constitution of the United States. fie
regrets that he ever took the oath. because the Consti
tution contains provisions calculated and intended to
foster, cherish, uphold, and perpetuate slavery—and
having inconsiderately taken it, he an no longer suf
fer it to lie upon his soul. He therefore takes back
the teals—and asks the Executive to take bacl the
commission.

EFFICACY uF THE MEDICATED VAPtoR BATH.
Messrs. Fleseang 4- Black:
GENTI,ENIEN:—I hare made trial of your Vapor
Bath. The benefit thereof has much exceeded
my expeclatio s. 1 hud not anticipated the degree of
pleasure produced by the medicated vapor dating
the whole process of its operation. I could scarcely
hive spent fifteen minutes mor • pleasantly; while'
my ttings were inhaling an odoriferous perfumed at.
mosphere, and every ;son of my system was exuding,
in copious perspiration; noxious humors, injurious to
the healthy state, 1 left the Buth greatly refreshed,
and even exhilerated, 1 had been uooblvd much with
rheumatic pains at.d worn down with fatigue ef busi
ness; the pains were completely removed, and I re
ceived fresh animation. It cannot, it is true, core
broken bones, or reduce flotations of jnint•;to such
things it makes no pretensions. But it can and dors,
expel from the body, such peccant mutter as may by
its presence, be incompatible with a pert ctly healthy
ennelit•on of the human frame. Without hesitation, I
can recommend the Vapor Balk to all afilic ed by
languor of constitution, or laboring under such diseas
es as it professes to alleviate or core.
