Mr.. CLAY AND THE WORKING MEN.
The Standing Commute of Mr.. Clay's friends
in this town, lately assembled for the purpose
of devising some means Of evincins their high re-
gard for him II having been suggested that MIR.
Clay had determined not to attend any public
entertainment for the present, the Committee de-
termined to wait upon him in body, and the
Secretary was directed to address Mr.. Clay a
Letter., and to ascertain from him when it would
be convenient for him to receive their visit.
The following is the letter to MIR. Clay and
his answer thereto:
GEORGETOWN, LIST. Feb. 1882.
Sir-At General meeting of the National
Republicans Of this town in June last, q stand.
ing Committee OF % persons was appointed
That Commute like those whom they represent
have had no experience as political partisans;-
their time has been occupied in attending to the
more laborious and unobtrusiSe employment of
private life. Their attention, however, has been
pdrected to national concerns. in consequence Of
the extraordinary events which they have been
made to witness, within the last three years.
To you. Sir, it cannot be necessary TO say
how perniciOus and fatal is the tendency Of these
unexampled occurrences The oppressive IN
justice. which has been visited upon the heads
of many of our fellow citizens. though truly
alarming to the friends Of Republican Govern
ment, is ofless moment than the insidious, but
determined assaults which have been made, and
are still making. upon American interests and
principles. That great system. by which domes-
tic industry is to be encouraged, and the widely
separated portions Of the Republic rendered con-
venently and permanently accessible, must be
sustained. With that system your own name is
inseparably connected-as you were its early adj
vocate. SO you are still its prosecuted friend
The delicate rela ton in which you now stand to
your countrymen, may, at least 10 some degree,
be attributed to the fearessness and indepen-
dence with which you have labored to perpetu-
ate that prominent and indispensable policy.
With these views OF the services which you
have rendered yout country, the members Of the
Standing Committee wish to be afforded an OPP
portunity of paving their respects to you person.
ally, and have been instructed to inquire Of
you what evening it would be convenient for you
to receive their visit As your own duties take
up much Of your time during the day, and such
being the case with your friends here, they have
directed me to suggest an evening as the most
suitable season tor waiting upon you
With great Respect, Sir,
Your Obedient Serv't

Dear Sir hope you will have the goodness
to excuse the delay which has arisen in my trans.
hitting an answer to your letter Of the first inst.
which has proceeded from my time being COM
pletely engrossed by an important subject pend
ing in the Senate.
Sharing with you in the sentiments contained
in your letter, in respect to the present state of
our public affairs, saw with pleasure that the
National Republicans Of Georgetown had deter.
mined to organize themselves, with the view Of
contributing whatever is in their power, to avert
tn e dangers impending over our institutions and
our system Of Policy. And l most anxiously
hope that the public may gradually become sen.
sibIe Of the extent and magnitude of those dan
gers.
Request you to communicate to the Standing
Committee. of which you are Secretary, that
shall derive great satisfaction from the visit with
which they propose to honor me; and that | shall
be happy 10 receive them on Friday evening next.
at 7 O'Clock. or on any other evening that shall
be more convenient and agreeable to them. and
which they may think. proper to indicate.

From Me .Nashuitie Republican

From tue .NashuiHe Repu6tican
 We tender our acknowledgements 10 the author, for the following interesting communication on the subject of the appearance and treatment of the Cio- lera at Snithlaad. The reader will find II every way worthy of attention.
 SHETLAND, Ky. Nov. 4th, 1S32.
 .Nr. Ed3tof--As the citizens of Nash vile and is vicinity may reasonably be supposed to entertain some apprehen- sion from the arrival of the Cholera -Asphyxia in their neighborhood, it will assuredly gratily them to learn that it's treatment becomes more successful as if advances. A smaller proportion of the diseased died in New York than did in Montreal; and in Philadelphia than in New York, and in no public institu- ton has it's treatment been more sue- ccssiul than in the Snithland Hospital.
 Science and experience are disarm- ing 1t of its tcrrors.
 In passing lon his way to Nashville) through little town called Salem, less than twenty miles from the Mouth of Cumberland, the writer of this article learned that the Cholera had made its appearance at Smithland; that seve- raj of the citizens had died; that the Hospital was full to overaowing; that the Steward, John Byrne, (avery wor. tn. thy citizenl had taken the disorder and died; and that Dr. Sanders, the at- tending Surgeon, had also taken it, and was confined to his bed.
 He had left both these gentlemen ap- parentiy in perfect health very few days before, and was not prepared for such intelligence. He determined inn medlately to lose DO time in repairing to Smlthland. and offering such services as he could render under such circum- stances. He found Dr. Sanders con- fined to his bed, the Stewart dead, and the Hospital full of Cholera patients but the disorder was not extending a. mong the resident citizens.
 The patients were principally from the corps of laborers (pioneers) under the command of Capt. Tyson, two hun dred of whom are employed in remov- ing Instructions from the bed of the Ohio, opposite to Smithland; with the addition of a few passengers and hands from the steam-boats plying between Louisville and St. Louis. Some of the earliest cases had terminated unfavora bly, but the others were in successful progress of treatment and promised well.
 From the following brief synopsis Q the disease and its treatment in the Smithland Hospital. it will appear tha the Cholera is much less formidable than it's fame would lead us to appre hend.
 Cholera Asphyxia. is generally Q uniformly preceded by considerable dis turhances of the alimentary canal; b cholie or aatulcnce; or nausea or pun g'ng, or the two united; most fIcquenl y however by the latter.
 These symptoms are speedily follon ed by feeling of load and oppressio about the region of the stomach, wit 2 sense of internal beat rcfcrable to til

Andover On Saturday last, Mrs. HARDY, the
wife Of Mr.. Ezekiel Hardy, aged about 4o' ,. a.
ter passing part of the day in apparent hea';i',
was seized with all the symptoms Of spas"oulo
cholera, which terminated her existence yes'er'
day morning. Two or three young women re-
siding in her family, are now laboIins under 81.
milar symptoms, and several OF the ne's"'''S
are slightly affected with similar symptoms
Mrs Hardy, we are informed, was woman OF
the most exemplary neatness AMI temperance
and was therefore free from the two grand pro-
vocations of cholera. 1t is possible however,
we think, to trace this melancholy event to an
error in diet. Mrs. Hardy, on Saturday, par.
took of very few CLANS. The other inmates OF
the house, and some of the neighbors, also par
took of this lndgestible tood.-Saiem GdS.
