,voo,d rive NJ, persons, who would charge
home pnon MIR. Clay the corrupt bargain
which has been so much talked Of! we re.
nnest every man TO read aud answer Tor himself.
pn, &c General Jackson did not charge Mr..
Claw with being priyy TO the offer, in the name

w;,h1-Strip the Generals letter Of this feature,
and what is there remaining? Certainly no.
thing against Mr.. Clay. If he knew not OF the
aIleeed offer, and Gen. Jackson has no proof
that he did, Mr.. Clay must stand acquitted be-
fore the country; and then the question arises,
,ohv ,ras the charge made, or eren insinusted.-
What led Gen. Jackson to husband for two years
4 scheme IN which he had no proof that Mr.
CLAW was concerned? He says, if he is incor-
rect in supposing Mr.. Clay was privy to the
transaction "ths gentleman ,cho informed me car
explain" Why has he not'sought this expla-
nation himself? Where truth was so easy TO
be had, why did he not, before publishing his
charges or supposiions against Mr.: Clay, inform
himself Of their correctness? When one is a.
bout to make charge or i'sinuaf'on atiecung
the peace or reputation Of fellow citizen, ne
should be careful that he proceeds upon correct
and undoubted authority. All the Information
| within his reach should be sought. An omis'
sion to obtain the truth, like that intimated In
LINE CeClarduOn SC"'S"'e"
can explain" is objectionable. BY the Gene
RAILS own showing, he had the means OF know
ing whether Mr.. Clay was priuy 70 the offer OF
not. If, on inquiry, he found that he ,oas privy
TO it. he should have made his charge in direc'
terms. On the contrary, if there was no proc
to that. effect, he should never have circulated
the story.
But the whole spirit of the letter, notwith
standing the attempts to evade it, alleges, dis
tinct,y and clearly, that Mr.Clay ,cas privy tt
the offer, Ifnot, we should like to know wha
he was called on to deny. "Let Mr.. Clay deny i

emily out comes General Jackson with his let
ter, and also refers to Mr.. Clay's denying. De
nying what? Let the letter answer Away
intended, should Mr.. Clay deny having any know
ledge of the communications made bv his friend
TO my friends, to give him the name OF TIT
gentleman" Ssc.!--Does not this show what wa
to be denied? Is not Mr.. Clay's "kno,oisdge'
of the transaction, the whole pith and substance
of the Generals letter! Without this con
struction, the whole letter is an absurdity
The charges are sought to be softened dow
to meet contingencies; butthe people are in pos
session of them in tangible form, and the
will not be satisfied to convict Mr.. Clay, unles
they are proved as broad as they are laid.

CURTIUS.
From Tie National MfeMgencer.

GENTLEMEN: According entirely, with your
correspondent "Franklin," in his views of the
lranscendant advantages which may be conf
den'ially anticipated from the construction of
! the Chesapeake and Ohio canal; and approving
much of the pains he has taken to point them
out and place them in their true point of view,
as well as for the judcous and intelligent man
ner in which he has done it; only Eek 10
throw a trihe, as it were, into the already
momehtuosly preponderating scale of human
inducements to the making Of this Canal.
In fairly comparing the advantages which
the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal will have to
those possessed by the N.York Erie Canal, he
admits that the latter will have the advantage
Of the transportation Of Wafer proof lime, SALT
and gypsum. which cannot be calculated upon
as articles Of downward conveyance on the for
mcr, and that the want Of the articles of waters
proof lime may, in some degree, increase the
price of constru' ting The Chesapeake and Ohio
Canal. Taking it for granted that the water
proof lime could not be found on the line of
this Canal, or the waters of the Potomac,
he has very truly insisted that the advantages
of the coal trade, alone, would outweigh these
minor ad, antages beyond all comparison But
as the writer Of this article has satisfactory
reason to believe that there is abundance Of
the material of which water proof lime is made,
on the line Of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal,
and on the waters fthe Potomac, he thinks 1t
proper to give Franklin, and others who are
Interested in this great work, that information
Residing on the waters of the Potomac, have
long been acquainted with subsistence differ
ent from the common lime stone, and by some
people improperly called marie, which was
much sought after for making the wbitest.

lately tina, 1t was pointed out to Inc, by an ex-
perencet mason, as that which makes the |

character to rely with great confidence upon
his statement. He informed me that he had |
seen II calcined, and had made use of il of en-
in the State of Pennsylvania, and proved it to
ne waterproof; that he had been on the North
srn Canal, and saw it made use of there, and
Knows this to be the same in kind with that,

yVep and Toluable School Book.

SECONDARY LESSONS, OR TRE I'M
- PROVED READER; for the use OF
Schools. BY the Author of the Franklin
Primer This work is designed particularly
for Reading Book, and both in the plan and
execution, it is believed that some material i'm
prOvements have been made, even on the most
popular books of the kind before extant The
title of the Improved Reader" it is thought,
will be found very appropriate, and the book
itself, an important auxiliary in the cause OF
Education.
Extract from The Preface
The leading design ofthis compilation, is to
introduce the child, by an easy and gradual
progress to an acquaintance with the most inn
portant words to an acquaintance with their
meaning, well their visible forms, that he
may early form taste for reading, and be in
comparably more capable of oral instruction,
than he would otherwise be. The author pre-
tends to no great originality, either in the de-
sign, or the execution He hopes however,
that some material improvements have been
made on the best books of the kind, before ex-
tant not excepting the Easy Lessons and the
American Popular Lessons"
The IMPROVED READER is recommended to
the public, under the impression that it will be
found highly useful as a School Book, and bet
ter adapted to the purpose, than any of a SINH
lar kind that has yet been published The plan
pursued, is IN some respects new and is, 1t IS
believed entirely approved by those who have
given most attention to the subject and that it
win be by others when they come to examine
the work.
Extract from a Reoieao Of the 'oorh.
" We think the Improved Reader is well cal
culated for the important place it is designed
to Fill, and that the Author of it is entitled to
the thanks of the community for this success
full attempt to add TO the means of intellectual
and moral improvement, among the young,
The style is simple the pieces short, interest
| ing and instructive. Besides the excellent IN
! struction which it contains, in a familiar and
engaging form, it is well suited to do away
| that unnatural tone which children SO general
| y acquire by reading what they do not under
stand. Any one who is al all acquainted with
/ the state of our Schools and has observed the
manner IN which the younger scholars spend
/ their time. win be sensible how much book
/ like this is wanted We hope to soc this little
work extensively adopted in our Schools"
/ Those interested in the subject of Education,
are respectfully requested to examine this
/ book, before they purchase for the approaching
winter schools.
