ROBERT TzALEs, sec'y.
In consequence Of repeated acts Of courtesy
and kindness on the part Of Capt. James Guy,
Of the Steamboat Cygnet, extended 10 the Ship.
wrights working in this town, they determined,
as token Of their respect, to present him with
handsome Flag Accordingly, on the 9TH, they
waited ON Capt. Guy, and upon presenting the
Flag, their Chairman accompanied it with the
following address,
SIR: Having been appointed Chairman OF the
Meeting Of ShiPwrishts in Alexandria, it has
devolved on me to perform this pleasing duty. I
am sensible that have neither words nor utter
ance Sufficient to express the high opinion in
which you are held BY the Shipwrights and cit.
Gems Of this town. Adulati0n and hattery may
for a time please; but sterling virtues when unit
ed in one, possessing in an eminent degree the
many other qualities which are indispensable to
a Shipmaster, induces Us to present to you this
Flag az a token Of our appreciation and our es-
teen for your personal worth. Accept then,
Sir, this memento Of our regard, not for it, in.
trinsic value, but from sense OF duty. May
it long continue to float proudly over the broad
waters of the majestic Potomac, and as an or.
nament to that boat which you have the honor to
command.
To which Capt Guy replied, as follows:--
GENTLEMEN: The same emotions Of gratitude
which have prompted you to offer. prompt me to
accept, this token Of your regard for me master
Of the Steamboat Cyguet. l cannot find words
to express the grateful sensations Of my heart,
TO, the kindness you have exhibited upon this
occasion. Ghs will be new epoch in the his

tives, as body Of Shipwrights, to signalize me
as the object Of your esteem; and SO long as

confidence Of my fellow citizens. This Flag.
this token OF your respect, shall hencefort' con.
tinue to display its radiant beauties at the color

The Tables Turned Every body will recol-
lecr the Congressional Committee appointed to
investigate the affairs Of the Bank Of the United
States, and the course that Committee pursued
they pried into the private concerns Of indiSl
duals, and published sundry OF them 40 tainted
with corruption and bribery, because they had,
in the course of their business, been obliged to
borrow largely of the Bank. The Chairman Of
that Committee, it will also be recollected, was
the Honorable Mr.. Clayton, Of Georgia. He was
the most active and efficient in the inqusiton in
to private concerns. Well, it has so happened,
.s in the course Of human events" that this iden
teal gentleman, for good and fair reasons, we
have no doubt, has been obliged to borrow mo-
ney also, and to borrow, too, OF this same Bank
Of the United States, with which for member Of
Congress or printer to deal, he held 10 be rank
corruption. Forth~ith, some one, more disposed
to revenge than charity, turned the argument OF
the honorable gentleman upon himself, and &C.
cused him Of corruption-nf having been bought
up by the Bank! The inference, upon the gen.
tleman's own principle. was irresistible. He
must have been bought-he could not deal with
the Bank, in his circumstances, without being
corruptly Influenced So it was maintained. -
But what does the gentleman himself saya How
does he like the application Of his own srsumentl
Why is he very indignant at it? He cannot find
words to express, IN becoming terms, the "scorn"
he feels for such g. hearftess iiiberaity." And
the gentleman is right-perfectly right Such
mode Of reasoning is most hedrfless-snd de.
series the scorn and erecTaiion Of every honest
man. And sincerely hope it may forever
cure the Hon. Augustus s. Clayton Of all pro-
pensity hereafter to Judge of his fellow men by a
rule which he finds so harsh and unjust in its ap.
pication to himself.-New Jersey FREEDMAN.

finding that horses ate it in preference to any food
