that Mr.. Clay always gave; SUCH the a'Shily
and ability with which he presided >over '"a'
body: that In no instance was more Than one
ballot necessary to determine the election In his
favor. His speech on Internal improvements
during the succeeding session, was consioerea
the best ever offered 10 the public on that SUD-
iect. His e~xer,ions in the Greek cause were
animated and jealous, as might have been ex-
pected in acause so congenial to his well known
iiberality and philanthropy OF principles ana
feelings. On the Tariff, he also exerled NM
self powerfully in behalf of domestic industry.
This is, indeed, a topic on which ne has of!en
delighted the House Of Representatives with
some of the best illusions Of eloquence that ever
flowed within its walls.
When The present Chief Magistrate OF The
nation came into power, Mr.. Clay received me
appointment Of Secretary Of STATE, In when
office he has since continued. In tllns Inc at
duous duties attached 10 this station, ne has
exhibited the same energy and promptitude;
the same deep statesman.like abilities, and the
same uncompromising integrity, which mas
characterized his whole political career.
Mr.. Clay's personal appearance is much IN
his favor as a public speaker. He is ABOUT SIX
feet high, straight, anG although inclined 10
slenderness, yet Of very pleasing proportions
His hair is light colored, his forehead high,
and rather retiring. His eyes are blue, and
slightly sunk in their sockets; his nose Is some
what prominent, and his mouth little larger
than usual. His cheek bones are high, and his
checks thin; his face is therefore narrow, but OF
a good proportion in length. HIS coun'enance
taken altogether strongly expresses energy
frmnes., and intelligence; and his whole deport-
ment, although dien!6ed and commanding, Is
yet afable, Agreeable, aud easy.
When he rises to speak, he generally stances
erect; but as he advances with his subject, ana
becomes anima,td, which he soon does, his
countenance brighlens, his gesture becomes ac'
tive and exceedingly. impressive. evidently
flowing naturally and spontaneously from the
earnestness with which he urges his opinions,
and therefore are always appropriate and pleas
ing. Over his voice he has the most peiiet'
command, being capable of modulatlng 1t 10
every degree Of force and emphasis necessary
TO give eff ct TO his language and sentiment
We may sun up the character OF TINS NUS
,rious American, by saying, hat as a pa'rlot
no man has ever evinced more sincerity; as a
statesman, none more sagacity and prompti'
tude; a, a philanlhropisr, none has nfrn more
importantly acrive and useful; and as All orator
!, would be difficult to find one in any country
by whom soundnrss, bnItiancy aud tor'e have
been more happily united, or more eftec'IVe',
displayed.

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH OF CLAY
This eminent statesman is a native OF the
county Of Hanover, in Virginia His father
John CLAW, was an opuIen, and pious divine. Of
the baptist persuasion. Henry, his second son,
was born in April, l7-6, & was s,ill very young
when the good elerg, man died, leaving his fam
iy in rather circumscribed circumstances. His
mother, therefore could not afford 10 expend
much on the education Of her children. To ear
ly tuition in the schools, Henry is, in conse>
quence, but little indsb,ed. 1t is not o be sup
posed, however, but that a mind constituted
like young Clay's, embraced every opportunity
tha, offered, fer the attainment OF knowledge,
& that although the discipline of a regular scho-
lasiic education was not to be obtained, the
want Of il must have been amply atoned for, by
the energy Of voluntary application to The most
useful branches of study.
AT q very early age, we indeed lind that MI.
Clay was qualified to perform the duties Of a
slerk in the Chancery office at Richmond. 1t
