4":11r. Clay proceeded to allude to the striking
contrast exhibited in the past and present condi.
tion of the country, and to state briefly the 'cause
of the public distress and the proper means of re
lief. The unsoundness and seardity of the cir,
euluting Medium was a chief cause.of . the disas
trous state of the country.. A. sound and suff
cient circulating medium, one of uniform value
at every poitit'of the Union, wits as essential to
the budypolitie,ns a sound sufficient and unifOrm
circulation or blood to the human body.. No more
could the currency of the country be corrupted or
unnaturally diminished and the country be pros
perous, than could the blood of the human body
be disordered and excessively diminished and the
body continue in vigor and health. Corrupt tho
currency and abstract one half` of it from cirenla-
-lion, and nothing but pecuniary prostration and
distress must follow. He' declared hiniSelf up.
posed to the hard money doctrine. Hard money
and hard times go together. Banks are unavoid
able: • Sento of the States will have them, and the
ethers must therefore do the sa me, or be-tributary
fur their currency to those which have ve'them, and
thus be subject to all their evils without enjoying
any of tiler benefits. If there be local banks, a
national Bank is indispensible—not the abortive,
miscalled Bahlt of the United States of Pennsyl
vania, powerless for good - and prolific of evil, b,rt
an old fitshioncd, time-fried Bank of the Bilked'

with .n. blight less productive edistress only than

"Of the remedies which Mr. Clay proposed for
our 'evils, one he deemed parainonnt'and essential.
Industry and Economy must be practised in all
things—we must make more, and buy less—we
must produce.at home, on our own llama and
plantations more than we need consume—our
wives and dhughters•must ply their own needles
more, and employ the 'milliners less. Be not a
larmed, my friends, be said, at the words I say—
this is the 'American System—lndnstry and
Econothy--make at home what we have been
buying abroad--and in that way we .will get out
of debt, and keep no and keep our money. A
moderato and reasonable tariff walall he ever de
sired—one sufficient to stimulate and sustain our
'own American, domestic• industry and economy.
Stability and uniformity were the great necessi
ties of the systeiff. It should be equal and uni
form in its operations oh the great interests of the
country."' _ .
The Contet—No Hanger:
Cr This "celestial stranger," is attracting much
attention.all,over the country ; and so many minds
arc engaged in its observation and investigation,
that an account descriptive of it may he expected
at an early day. On one subject connected with
the appearadee or Comets, Protimshr OLMSTEAD
speaks us follows—from which we infer that there
is no danger that. the present or any future Comet
will "set the world on fire:" '
"As to the dangers to be apprehended from the
collision of the earth with a cornet, it may, in the
first place, be shown that the chance that a cornet
will Strike the earth is almost infinitely small; and,
even if it should meet .us, the body ls SO mw
that
it could not-penetrate the atmosphere. ,Such a
collision might perhupe cruise a splendid meteoric
shower. • It is true, it might also disturb the at
mospheric equilibrium; causing destructive tem
pests; and the matter .of the comet might possi
bly vitiate the air so as to make it unfit for respir
ation. But there is no necessity to look so for for
dangers; . they surround u-v on every side, and
threaten us every day of oitr lives, from even the
most insignificant causes. Throtighout the econo
my of nature all powers are so balanced that each
keeps the other in MINA ; for instunte, heat rind
cold have-been far ages idruggling with each oth
er, but neither has so far gained the mastery as to
render the globe uninhabitable:: Cornets obey
laws which have been hi operation fat thousands
of years, and no Mistake has hitherto been occa.

sume that they will continue to move on bar

MILLERISNI
ND OF THE WORLD DELUSIONS IN FORMER TIMES.
..,,il3 - As the predictiOns of Mr.'MtrA4n fixing
the destruction of the world in 1843; have formed
an exciting topic in our borough within the past
week, a.eli plicronthe subject of.this and similar
delusions in former"times, May prove ofinterest,
as well 'as of instruction. The mass of the'peo.
ple may not be aware that predictions of this
kind are no new thing, and that Mr. Miller can
lay no clam to originality in the idea by which
his'own mind is misled, -(admitting him to be
sincere,) and with which he is likely to delude
Many others.. Indeed, Mr. Miller is by far the
,most ignorant of those who have yet taken up
i 'this subjek and presumed to'unveil the mysteries'
kif the future. The profoundest minds—the most
gifted „and brilliant intellects of former ages—
have foolishly'essayed ,the task Of "finding out
GOD," and after years of toil upori 'their calcula•
tions ofthe duration of tho world, and, the prime of
their live; wasted in determining the day of its
destruction, the world still rolls on, proving how
vain . are all Man'sttempts to discover that which
has 'been wisely • ivTailield from him;'and how
puny, is his intellect when it would impiously
aspiri3 to the prescience of Infinite Wisdom!
We have collected from various sources notices
of delusions with respect to the end of the world,
which have heretofore, at different periodi since
the Christian era, disturbed the popular mind in
different countries ;. they may Prove, of interest at
this time, and, where they aro road, may assist in,
checking , the • progress of 11,1 act. ism . '.The Most
'remarkable of these is the prediction of Sir John
Napier, which will be found among those sub.
joined.
In the l- 45lys of Ortgen; Egypt was IthrO t wn into
com ion liy the -anticipated return otchrist . to
the earth, to establish his 'Weida! reign. This
commotion caused many to reject the Apocalypse
of John from the sacred canon, the millenarians
having built their belief upon the 520th chapter of
this book. . •
Again in Germany, In the time .of Luther, the
petoluitry were carried away with the same opin
ion of the approaching advent of Christ, and his
personal rc!gn upon the earth. Every stndent of
hisfory knows,. what troubles, originated from this
source, and what grief these fanatical notions gave
to Luther and the other Reformers. •
/a later day's, Edward Irving revived the same
notion respecting the Alillenial reign and second
advent of Christ; and lived in daily expectation of
the glorious Epiphany.
It was extensively believed in the 10th century
that the world woOld.terminate at the mid" of the
thousandth yearafter the birth ofehrist. About the
yeir..oso,ifs the expected period drew high, Bern.

the certain' assurance that at the end of the tkou

Antichrist should come, and the conflagaratioln of
the world follow. The clergy adopted this doe.
trine without delay; the pulpits resounded with
it; and it was ditlbscd with astonishing rapidity,
and embraced with ardor. Prodigious numbers
f_parile_alnindouing their friends_and_Einilies_
and -earthly possessions, repaired with procipita.

would descend again from heaven, establish his

selves to rocks and caverns, as if these could pre

In many places, tentples, palaces, and noble edi•
flees, pliblie and private, were suffered to decay,

My Dear Sir-4 have been waiting for an eve

answer, and after,art unreasonable delay, I sin, at

and'seeing no near piospect of being made one, I
ought, • perhaps, to decline troubling you;or'Otti;

• Premising, that . you are tho,lirst person.who'r
has interrogated me oil the subject, I give you,
the basis of what tcouhrbe my reply, in greater
detail, if time allowed, and the contingency al-
Intled to above, were less remote., .
In boyhood, at William,and Mary College, and
in common with most, if not all my conipanions,
I bccatne'deeply impressed with the'viewn gifen
by Mr. Jefferson in his Noteq on Virginia, and by
Judge Tucker in the appendix to his edition 'of

but my early impressions arc fresh and unchang.
cd.• Hence, if I had had thehonor of a se - 4 in
the Virginia Legislature in the winter of 1831-fl,
when a bill was brought ibrwnrd to carry out
those views, I should certainly have given it my
warty 'support.
suppose 1 settreCtiy needs:lP, thci, in my opin.
on, Congress has no color of authority, under
he Constitution, for touching the relation, of inns•
. . .
ter and slave in a State.
I hold the opposite opinion in respect to the
District of Columbia. Here, with the consent of I
ownerS, or on the payment_olust—componsa--H
lion," Congress may legislate at its discretion.-
But my conviction is equally strong that, unless
it be step by step with the• Legislatufes of Vir.
g,inia-and •Maryland, it would be dangerous to
both races, in those States, to touch th e re hli on
between master and slave within this District.
I have, from the first, been of opinion that C 96.
gress was boUnd by the Constitution to receive,
to refer and to report upon• petitions relating to
domestic slavery as in the case of all other peti
tions; but I have not fitiled to see and to regret
the unavoidable irritation which tho former •have
produced in the Southern States, with the con.
stiqueot peril to the two colors—whereby the adop.
lion of•any plan of emancipation has,cvery where
with OS, been greatly retarded. •
I own, myself, no slave . ; but never have at
tached blame to !nesters for net liberating their
slaves—well knowing that liberation, without the
means of sending them, without comfort; to some
position favorable to "the pursuit of h[ippmess,"
would, in most cases, be highly injurious to all
around, as well as to the manumitted, flunilies
themselves—unless the operation were general
and' under the auspices of prudent legislation.—
But' I anilmrsuaded that it is'a high moral obli
gation of masters and slave holding St..tes, to em:
ploy all means, not incompatible with the safety
of .both colors, to ameliorate slavery to extermi.
nation.
It is gratifying to know that general amelior.
alion has been great, and ns Mill progressive, not
withstanding the disturbing causes alluded to
above. The more direct process of emancipation
mayom doubt, be carliercommeneed and quick
ened in some communities than in others: Each,
I do not question, has the right to judge for it.

sider interference or aid, from without, except on,
imitation from authority within, to be as hurtful
to the sore progress of amelioration, as it may bo
fatal' to the livCs of vast: 'multitudes of all ages,
sexes and colors. The work of liberation canna
bo forced without such horrid results. Christian
philanthrophy is ever mild and considerate.—
Hence all violence ought to be deprecated by the
frianda_of rallg ion. and_ hrtmanity. Their persua.
sions 'cannot fail, at the right time, to .free the
master from the slave, and the slave from the
master—perhaps before the latter shall have found

the parties had long been mutually prejudice! to
their worldly interests.
