The answer of twenty-eight fietkodists to
the Bev. Dr. Bascom's certificate of ass
Clay's morality.
Why is it that so much sensibility is excited?..—vrby
such holy horror manifestedl— why so rnueh fettering
bearditmong the partisan presses threughout the length
and breadth of the land, when the morality of a muftis
date for the most exalted" station within the power of
the people to confer on any man, is male the subject
oflegitimate enqhiry? Is it because the people are to
be debarred the privilege of investigation into - the-OM
and conduct of the man who seeks elevation at thete
hands? or are they required bye hireling and subsi
dised press blindly to entrust their destinies into the
hands of on individual whose deeds they are denied
the right to scrutinize?
A virtuous man fears no scrutiny into his conduct--+
be invites investigation—requires no endorsers, how.
ever strict the ordeal may be-..he requires na MINUS
pieta- to sustain him, or to do '•the bladintoftbe man.
ter's hand." If, on the other beach Pall is not right
in Denmark"—if his life has been passed in vicious
and immoral acts, in violation of the laws ofpod and .
man—if the fabric be not pure and unstained, and can.
net sustain itself, the flood gates of abuse and recriail;
nation are opened, and lavished forth with a relentless
band—certificates ate '•manufactured to order" toiler
ludo the people, end to brdster.up a sullied reputatiaoi
and even ministers of the gospel forsake their 'tiered
calling, and are persuaded to %Tulare into the political
arena, and by their endorsenu•nt to prop the character
of a man whose life (end we speak knowingly) has
been one continued scene of vice and immoiatity from
his earliest manhood to a decayed old age, •
How was the moral and religions world astounded
when the certificate of the Rev. H. B. Bascom, which
so recently appeared, Was heralded forth by a Been.,
'out press, endorsing the character of that men ,whose
name has been a by-word among his own brethren fur
years past, carrying ahmg with it not the faintest eel.
.fence of morality and virtue, bur, on the other band,
associated by them with all the prevailing vices which,
characterize the world and the vicious man.
We would for his sake—we would for the sane of
that church of which he is a bright and shining - oma..
went—we would, as his hryther, for the sake of that
religion which he professes. and for the sake of that,
reputation which be has hitherto sustained as a candid,
and conscientious man, cover this lastlllCt with, an
penetrable veil, and hide it in oblivion, never thence to.
be brought forth and reckoned against him. But there
is a duty, an imperative one, which we owe to our%
selves, to our children, to our church, our religion,and•
our country, which no personal consideration must
shake, and from the discharge of which We must nei:
ther falter or depart, even when the name of the
,Rev..
H B Bascom is opposed to us. It is fresh in the Minds
and remembrance of the whole country, that a letter
was addressed by Dr J G Goble to the Rev H B Baas
corn, with the inquiry, "whether the charges Preferred
against the Hon H Clay, of being a Sabbith breaker,
a profane swearerand gambler, were correct in not,'
Now mark the 'reply of the Rev Mr Bascom to •ilysi
charges: "1 have been in intimate and confidential.
intercourse with the Hun H Clay, in primate and
public life, .more limn twenty years, and know.
the charges enumerated .in your letter against 'the
private character of Mr Clay to be utterly end bate'',
false. Mr Clay does nut belong to the church, but.
is view of the ordinary accredited principles of good
'and moralchnracter, no charge can be brought against.
him without violating the obligations of truth and.
sound justice; and to each and every charge in your
letter, I return for an answer, that !regard. them, one
and all, shamefully unjust, because not true - fiat.r in
whole or part."
The Rev. Doctor sweeps the platter..-goes the
whole figure without exception or reservation; and hi,
this wholesale denial, can arrogate himself the credit
at least of going further and stronger in denying them
charges, than any man of any size, sort, description or
cloth, has ever ventured to go. Ile strikes the cue rent
and leaves himself chttnae for swimming to land&
but a fair one for sinking before be gets even in sight.
This wonderful certificate covers the ground of M.
Clay's morality "In whole," and not 'in part," ler
twenty years and more, and to that period so lembra:
ced, we shall respond, and take the Doctor's 'inter:
course so - intimate an d confidelitial; public and pri
vate," and no more.
Every reader of the paragraph referring to the Doe.
toes "public intercourse" with Mr Clay, would very
naturally infer that he had held, fur'-twenty yeatra SS+
mote," some public station under the Chneinistetwi
and consequently was placed in a situation •to know
that these charges were utterly and banal, false. • Elm
the public will be as naturally rely much surprised at
learn that the Reverend gentleman's public life is cow
prided sot "in twenty long years and niam," but ir t dr
enormous short space of tea short mondial In the ens
pacity of Chaplain to the lower Home of Congress.
Of the Reverend Doctor, Mr. Clay has ever been
quasi patron, and was his supporter toiled case; and
if the report of that day be true, backed bhp claims to
that office with the somewhat novel but 'insular -yes
commend/Ilion, "that he could produce a {reacher
who could preach them ail to and beck again."
That argument was irresistible to members—the Rev.
mend Doctor was backed against Sena—Mr. Clay en.
doused for him then—the Doctor was elected—and he,
not forgetful of past favors, awl cherishing a very
emarnendable gredurde, now hacks Mr. Clay, and an- -
donee for I im to the full extent, and a "Iced. over."
The Doctor preached and preached well; but whether
he came quite up to the letter, or Tiled die measures(
the recommendation, we regret today history does not
now elided to ua the slightest record. When the Doc
tor counts again, he will, doubtless, discover that ten
months are not "Ivrenty.years abd more."
Take the Doctor's statement as true to the letter...
grunt that he was 'in intimate and confidential pebble
interceurse" with Mr Clay for twenty years anti
more," and then ask him how he knows that Mr Clay
neither "desecrated the - Strbbath, profanely aware
