We insert the following with feelings
of deep modification and regret, that
the murderous practice should still be
countenanced by men who occupy such
high stations. 1t is a relief to find that
no blood was shed. 1t may palliate, but
cannot justify Mr.. Clay, tina, he has been
insulled, abused and villfied in a manner
which human nature finds II difficult 10
bear.
From the National Journal
The following statement was received
from the friends Of Messrs. Clay and
Randolph: and may therefore be relied
OH as strictly correct:
On Saturday the 9th OF April, at hall
past four O'clock, P. M. meeting took
plate between Mr., Clay and Mr. Ran
dolph, upon call OF the former, in con-
sequence OF Certain expressions used by
the latter in recent debate in the Sc
nate, which Mr. Clay considered often
sive, and applied personally to him.
Mr.. Randolph was attended by Col.
Tainall, Of Georgia, and Major Hsmil
ton, Of South Carolina; Mr. Clay hs
Gen. Jessup Of the Army, and Mr.. John
ston, OF Louisiana.
The parties met on the ground-ex
changed salutations, and took their sta.
tons. The pistol of Mr.. Randolph,
while suspended by his side, wen, of.
1t was perceived TO be an accident, and
SO pronounced by Mr.. Clay. lmmedl
ately, however, upon the report of the
pistol, MIR. Randolph turned 10 Colone
Tstnali, and said, p" told you So" Col.
TatnaIl, then turning TO Gen. Jessup,
observed, "Sir, the fault is mine Mr..
Randolph protested against The use oil
he hair trigger, was at my express
instance the hair was sprung"
Another pistol was immediately hand
ed to Mr. RaDdol pb-the parties resum-
ed their stations, and exchanged shots
without effect.
Immediately after the report of the
pistols, while Col. Ta,nall and Gen. Jes-
sup were re-loading, Col Benton, OF
Missouri, rode up, and united with MIR.
Johnston and MAJOR Hamilton in an eff
tort to stop the affair; which proved in
eifeclual.
The parties again took their stations
and the word being given, Mr.. Clay rails
ed his pistol and fred, and the ball pass
ed through Mr., Randolph's clo,hcs.--
Mr.. Randolph reserved is-ire, holding
his pistol perpendicuIarly up-said 81
do no, fire a, you, Mr.. Clay" and dis.
charged bis pistol in the air. He added,
I" 1t was not my intention to have fred at
you at all. The unfortunate circum-
stance Of my pistol going off accidental
ly, changed my determination. A, this
instant Col. Benton came up, and said,
" Yes, Mr.. Randolph told me so, ex-
pressiy, eight days ago." The parties
simultaneously approached each other,
both with extended hands, Mr.. Randolph
remarking, +" Sir, give you ny hand; :"
which was cordially received by Mr..
Clay, and the affair thus honoraby and
happily closed.
The friends Of the parties, without
consulting their respective principals, in
the hope OF terminating the difference il
a manner alike honorable to both, were
induced to delay he period of meeting
for few days.

CAPT. Symmes 1Heory.--Last week
the citizens OF Trenton were favored by
Mr.. Reynolds, the friend and coadjutor
OF Capt. Symmes, with three lectures on
the new Theory Of the Earth. The facts
adduced in. support Of this theory, hot-
lou sphere, with openings at the poles,
were such as, if not actually to convince
many OF his audience Of tho correctness
of the new theory, are certainly very dif-
ficul, to be explained on the old Theory
Of solid sphere; and at any rate prove,
that the opinion Of Capt. Symmes upon
this subject, is not 10 be condemned as
the wild visions of partially deranged
man. The facts collected from the Jour-
nails of many navigators in the northern
region, both ancient and modern, ss we'll
as from travellers, such as Hearne,
M'Kensie, Franklin, and others, exhibit
a chain Of circumstances highly interest
ing, and strongly persuasive, that there is
a habitabie region hitherto UNEMPLOYED to
