of Washington County, Md. who made
an address to him, accompanied with a
copy Of the Resolutions passed at the
meeting by which they were constituted
To the address of the committee Mr..
Clay made the following reply:
Gentlemen-I request your acceptance
for yourselves, and for those whom you
represent, Of my grateful acknowledge
ments for the testimonies Of esteem and
respect with which my passage through
your town and county to the seat Of the
General Government is honored. A
mong those here assembled l recognize
some whose acquaintance | had the plea
sure to form about 25 years ago, when /
was first proceeding to Washington on a
service similar to that which now carries
me there. Subsequent visits to Hagers-
town strengthened and extended my ac-
quaintance and gave rise to friendly re-
latons and intercourse which were al
ways highly gratifying to me. On this
occasion, learn with inexpressible sat
isiaction, that your friendship and conf
fdence are undated and that they ac-
company me to the station to which |
have been recently assigned. In ac-
cepting that station, | acted in obedience
to the appointment Of the legislature of
Kentucky, and in conformity with public
calls repeatedly and urgently made. But
/ GO to the Senate with no anticipation of
personal satisfaction, nor with any ex-
peotation oi' my being able to render any
signal public service. All that ] can
venture to assure you, gentlemen, and
many other friends, is that, in that eleva-
ted branch of the Government, / will
faithfully adhere to the constitution, to
the Union, and to those great principles
ofpublic liberty and public policy by
which l have been ever guided. And
shall be happy if in the smallest degree,
my exertions shall contribute to the cha.
racter, prosperity or glory Of our common
country.

From the Gems of Sacred Poetry

The Spring, the Morning ofLif-7he De'
the F2o,1er Of Youth.
Sweet is the time Of Spring,
When natures charms appear;
The birds with ceaseless pleasure sing,
And hail the opeing year:
But sweeter far the Spring
OF wisdom and of Grace,
When children bless and praise their King.
Who loves the youthful race.
Sweet is the Dawn Of day,
When light just strikes the sky;
When shades and darkness pass away,
And morning beams are nigh:
But sweeter far tbs Dawn
Of pety and youth,
When doubt aud darkness are withdrawn,
Before the light of Truth.
Sweet is the early dew,
Which gilds the mountains tops,
And decks each plant and flower we view,
With pearIy glittering drops.
Eut sweeter far ths scene,
On lions holy hill;
When there the dew of youth ia seen
Its feshness to dlstil.
Sweet is the opening flower
Which just begins to blnom,
Which every day and every hour
Fresh beauties will assume.
But sweeter that young heart,
Where faith, and love, aud peace,
Blossom and bloom in every part.
With sweet and varied grace.
o may LIES early Spring
And Morning, ere they fee,
Youths Dew, and its fair Blossoming.
BE given, my God, to thee.
