LONNDLS, No. II.

The next prof Of corruption produced by
Mr.. McDuffie against Mr. Clay, is
H. "I'hat he voted against the man whom
he knew 10 be the choice OF the People OF Ken
lucky"
IN the course of his argument, Mr.. McDuf-
fie has relied upon the Resolution passed by
the Legislature Of Kentucky, as an evidence
that General Jackson was the choice Of the
People of kentucky, and upon an extract from
speech Of Mr.. Clay, acknowledging his obi
CATION TO obey The instruction OF his conslitu-
ents, expressed or implied.
He has brought forward this extract, too, as
showing the political principles" OF MIR. Clay;
declares that i, is impossible for Mr.. Clay 40
escape from his own judgment, so broad and
comprehensive are its TERMS" and triumphant
ly asks: "Through what avenue, by what sub
tcrluge can he escape from the condemnation
that awaits him!"
The charge, then, involves not only a viola
ton of his duty as Representative, as proof
of corruption, but an alleged inconsistency be-
tween his conduct and his allowed political prR
cipIes.
I have presented the allegation in all its
force; mean to ,rea, it %Irly; and / under
take to show, to The satisfaction Of every can
did mind
l. That the charge Of ini Inconsistency, between
MIR. Clays conduct, and his avowed political
principles, is unfounded
9. That Mr.. McDuhe his himself extended
the doctrine Of implied Instructions farther
than lis warmest advocates have ever before
commended.
8. And tina, the opinions IF Mr.. McDufie, on
the subject of instructions. ale unsupported by
reason, and opposed by authFity.
To make this subject psr(scily plain, and en-
able every one to form BIS opnion from iudis-
pu;ahle facts, it will be necessity 10 inquire:
What have been the PRINCIPLES arOped by
Mr.. Clay, on the subject of instNclions?
What arc the principles aseriad to him by
Mr.. McDu file: aud
What are the circumstances Under Which
Mr.. Clay acted, and 10 Which ,hcS principles
are applicable?
The only time tina, Nv Clay has sen known
TO express an opinion upon the subjet of in
slrucliuns, was in a debate which arde in Jam
usry, 1917, on bill then pending, toepeal an
act passed at the preceding session, alF pre-
cediug Congress, giving 20 Members Con-
gress salary, instead Of per aism eoApcnsa-
ton.

was received with unmingled -disapproStioh;

one extremity Of the Union to the other, ana
ag ainst which reason and argument were urseo
in vain; and that the result OF recent elections,
the changes in the House, and various maniies'
tations Of public opinion, showed that TINS ieei-
ing Of opposition was deep, permanent, and u
Universal.
Those who, from having voted in favor ofthe
act, had become the advocates OF It's repeai, ur-
ged the existence of this sentiment as sufii-
Gent ground fo change in their opinions
and maintained the general obligation OF the
Representative to conform 10 the asceriained
will of his constituents. The supporters OF the
original act, who continued with equal tirm-
ness and consistency 10 he the opponents OF ITS
rcpcal, denied this obligation, and asserted the
entire freedom of the Representative from any
other restraint than that Of his own Judgment,
and The provisions Of The Constitution.
The debate which arose was distinguished by
uncommon ability, and drew forth The highest
efforts of men whose eloquence has rarely been
excelled in any age, and whose names Will be
enrolled among the brightest luminarles OF our
country.
1t is from the speech Of Mr.. Clay delivered
on this oc easion published i'll the Nallona! In
,eIligencer Of 18th Jan. 1917. that Mr.. Nc al
lie has extracted iTo sentences exhibiting, as he

and on which he prcdica,es his proof OF neon
sislency and corruption.

BEAUTIFUL EXTRACT.

Its cadence on my lonely hours!
Like healing scent on wings OF sleep,
Or dew to the unconscious flowers.
can forget her melting prayer,
while leaping pulses madiy ny; ~
But in the still uubroken arr,
Her rcntle tones come stealing by,
And wears, and sin and manhood flee,
And leave me at my mothers knee.
The book Of nature, and the print
OF beauty on the whispering sea,
Give ave To me some lineament
or Whist have been taught to be-
Nv heart is harder, and perhaps
NV manliness has drunk up tears,
And there's mildew in the lapse
of few miserable years
But natures book is even yet,
with all my mothers lessons writ.
Ihave been out at eventide
Benearh a moonlight sky OF spring',
When earth vas garnished ike bride
And night had on her silver wing
When bursting leaves and diamond grass
And waters leaping to the light,
And al that make the pulses pass
With wilder fleetness, throng'd the night
When all was beauty-then have |,
With friends on whom my love is flung
Like mvrrh on winds of Arahy,
Gaz'd up where evenings lamp is hung,
And when the beautiful spirit there,
Flung over me its golden chain,
NV mothers voice came on the arr
Like the light dropping of the rain
And resting Gu some silver star
The spirit OF Bonded knee.
I've pour'd her low and fervent prayer
That our eternity might be
To rise in heaven like stars at night,
And tread living path of light.

In this comparison every one mustbe s,rur k

"IIe, Mr.. Clay, agreed
perfectly in the sentiment
that instructions give n by
the People are obligatory
on theRepresentatiye. This
was 4 principle consecrated
by the Revolution, ard IN
separable from all free Co
vernment. II was, indeed,
like all general principles,
regulated by certain Emiti-
tions. An instruction, for
instance, to violate theCon-
stitution, is not binding.
Why Because the cx-
preston of the will Of the
People in the Constitution
is paramount to the ex-
preston oftheIr will in the
for n of instructions; and
because the Representative
is sworn to obey that para
mount will. But on ques-
tions of erpediency, the will
of the People ought to be
binding. And ifthere WAS
a question, more than any
other, in regard to which
the popular will ought to
be obcyed, it is. that in
which the Representatives
are called upon to fix their
own compe1satlon--in
which they are a party on
the one side and the Peo-
pie on the other. Every
consideration of propricty
and delicacy, as well AS of
principle, required, that
wherc the will Of the con-
stitueni, in regard to COM
peasoiion, ,oas decidedly en-
pressed, it is to be received
as conclusive, and impli.
City obeyed. While then
he had a seat on this floor,
Mr.. Clay said, 1T WAS I'M
Maternal TO HIM How nE

WERE THE EVIDENCES or 1T.
