We have published on the preceding pages the cor respondeRce between the President andseveral Ot the leading federalists of Massachusetts. h hisPFeceoed in the pamphlet with brief preface, aud the article from the National Intslligencer of last October, in which Mir. Adams repeated his charges against the federsiss. Mir. Adams having refused to furnish the testimony demanded, the correspondence is followed by an Appeal to the Citizens oft United States: This document is altogether too long for publication in weekly newspaper, but perhaps we may hereaf- ,er by dividing t, be enabled to give tt to our read- CTS. Mr. Adams letter is certainly very able one, distinguished for the spirit and keenness which char acterize all his controversial writings; but we are sorry he does not give satisfactory explanation of tire charges he had brought forward It will be the means ofopeBing afresh the wounds which long since ought 10 have been healed We cannot but be- lieve however that Mir. Adams is honest in the belief of his asseverations and that he could, he would, name persons, times and places by whom and where treason stratagem and spoi were Ito bis satisfaction at Ieast seriously meditated. He has chosen his own time to bring these things to light, and he is man not easily diverted from his purpose.

 T We wonder # any of our readers wish to be intormed that on Friday, Saturday and Sunday lnst we had one of fhe gost aaEera and AiusteriDg snoW storms experienced s part of the country for ma ny ycars7 We do not say the severest in the ssmem ory ofthe oldest inhabiiantsn for doubtess they will recoect several such, but if to trust our experience, it was the most tedious one witnessed since Christmas, 1911. So much have the roads be- come blocked up with mountains of snow that for or three days nearly all communication with the neighhoring towns was cut of; and even now, the stages and mails arc ahIe 10 make their trips reg ularly aad in due ti,ne We have heard iron, the east no farther than Boston, and from the south far Philadelphia, at both of which places the storm was severely felt From inc north and west, we have had no mails since Saturday.
 Henry Ciav.-There is paper printed in Lynch burgh, Virginia, called the "Jeferson Rcpuhlican,' (as great misnomer by the bye could well be ceycd.) which holds the following reyengeful Ian. guage towards this eminent statesnsau. What should be thought of the wretch who harors such base tments? Mir. Clay, however is not easily crushed as many of these editors may imagine. As member ofthe present administration, he will undoubtedly go out of office on the 4th of March; but entertain little doubt that he will be again returned y his con- euents--those generous souls who know him best and love him mosI.-to the former field of his glory, ahe House of Representatives where he will com mand the respect and admiration of both friends and foes.
 "lIis privacy should not he suffered avail him he should be pursued through every lane ofe, until the infniiies of nature shall render him inpotent do evil. This man has large account yet to settle with his country. He has not fully paid the penalty dregs the cup of degradation for his bold defiance of the peoples wil If, tl,en it shall be his purpose to withdsaw tar season from public iife--fof II will be s<snY for season, with his consent--we he peO- pie, eOemny, to keep him, and the ever memorable
 and less corrupt deeds of his past life in their re- EoIlecfiOD. Throw not the pail oi oblivion upon of fences the highest which exist as between con eti,uent and representative. If two years hence or less tire as we forbode Henry Clay shall be presen ted for the forgiveness and votes of his country, we Sr,ss that country will rebuke the steadiast adhesion of his party, and such uMeonquerable imPudence in in,selE in such manner will prosrate him and it. The thought of having Henry Clay paraded upon the stage annoying the community as he is, with fhe moral filth of the l" Bargain" is intOlerabte. daily abiHtion in the King of Rivers never make him clean. There is not rain enough in the sweet heayens' to purify him."
