MR.. CLAY AT ASHLAND.

The Rev. DR., Humphreys, President of Amherst
College, Mass, who is travelling through the west
ern States gives the following interesting picture Of
the great Orator of The West as he appears in the
Republican simplicity Of his delightful farm:
Happening 10 meet, and to be introduced 10 Mr..
Clay in the morning, he very politely invited US TO
call al his seat, mile and half out Of town, which
we did at 4 o'clock. He received us with all The
ease and urbanity for which he is 50 n. uch disn-
guished, and entered freely into conversation upon
variety Of topics as they happened TO come up. 1t
is delightful 10 find great man SO perfectly afable
and unaffected and indeed this is one mark Of true
greatness. ....m FL.
Ashland is enchanting spot. The mansion is
simple, spacious and venerable; standing just on
the border of park OF eighty acres which for The
majesty and beauty of its thousand forest trees, is
The finest ever saw. Mr. Clay has two other wood
land pastures and in all, something like 800
in his farm. He has lately turned his attention
very much 10 raising stock and 1t is said no man
in Kentucky, even, can show you finer oxen and
cows than he can. He spent an hour in walking
with us over his grounds and detained US, almost
impercepblv 10 ourselves, till nearly shutdown.

DEAR STA As an evidence Of the reurn Of n
state Of national prosperity, can adduce nothing
more satisfactory than the fact that book making Is
again profitable. During seasons Of financial de-
preston, the oyenaSked mind refuses its usual ali
menl but the crisis past, and return 10 men,
tai enioyments with renewed zest
Within the last few months, the business Of pub
fishing has increased 10 an astonishing extent, and
works Of established popularity obtain an extensive
and rapid sale In this city The Messrs Harpers take
the lead In this branch Of business, and presume
they have the most extensive printing establishment
in the United States
They employ, learn, Nreral hundred journey
men, and their business is said to be conducted in
most systematic and liberal manner. Possessed OF a
large capital, and being gentlemen Of great promp
tilude and enterprise, they necessarily enjoy the
confidence Of the business community, and at The
samelme are instrumental in Introducing the writ
ings of authors TO the public in the most favorable
manner.
Messrs. Wiley and Putnam are also publishers
and importers Of English books, they having an es
lablishment also in London, through whose agency
they have introduced many valuable works TO The
notice Of our reading community.
S. Coiman, f. Saunders and others are engaged to
a certain extent in the publication Of new works,
but the Messrs. Harpers may be said 10 be "A. Pub

and Hart are extensively engaged In The same line Of
business; but Neo York will continue 10 he focus
of our National Literature, and must, necessarily,
in few years, nonopolize The greater portion Of the
publishing business OF the Union. There are seve-
raj establishments in this city who eonfne them
| selves TO the publication of moral and religious
works, and the number they issue in cheap form is
almost incredible.
The Bible and Tract Societies pour forth their
millions of issues and the various moral associa-
TONS whose head quarters are located in this city,
employ thousands Of printers and publish an almost
innumerable quantity Of cheap works, both for sale
and gratuitous distribution Nassau street is the
Pateraoser Roio Of moral and religious literature
and during the anniversaries Of the various societies.
the whole upper part of the street Is flied with The
! host Of delegates in attendance.
r. Taylor publishes a number Of religious works,
| and several other establishments are engaged in
similar publications. Our near connection with
London will, in time, induce simultaneous publ
cation Of all works of interest, until New York and
the British Metropolis will be almost unit in every
thing appertaining TO literature and science. The
one thing we lack is a great National Library, 10
Gated in this city, on scale Of lberaliiy commen

THE PASSING SUMMER.

The summer is gliding past with UNDECIDED rapidlty,
and unaccompaned by the exhausting heat that usually
marks its progress Waered by frequent and coplons
showers the earth is sending forth its products with an
abundance and pofsion that promise the husbandman
rich reward for his toll aud the artisan and Iner
chan, plentiful supplies at moderate prices We have
now reached the middle Of June, and, with the excep
ton Of three sultry days, do not remember
to have been made uncomfortable by the heat; and
should the same moderation Of temperature continue
for short time longer, there every probability that in
filing the grain viii acquire unusual weight aud plump
ness Nor has there been any thing on the score Of
heahfulness to mar the contentment inspired by the
prospect so richly spread before With the cxcep.
ton Of the diseases that attend infancy have heard
of no violent disorders the absence OF which is attesed
by the small aggregates of the bills Of mortality. I'm
der all these circumstances is there not solid cause for
thankfuness the Divine Dsposer Of events, who has
thus been pleased cheer the hearts OF his creatures
with the enjoyment of the primary blessings Of health

Dear Sir-I have received your letter, in which,
on behalf OF the Democratic General Committee, you
ask 10 be informed OF the probable period OF my ar
rival at Nsw York, with view TO public express
sion Of regard for myself and appreciation OF my
official conduct.
Intending 10 travel by private conveyance, can

reach there but hope TO do SO by The first OF July.
The interchange OF personal civilties with my fell
low citizens in the course OF my journey, will afford
me the most lively qualification, and The only senti-
ment in regard to Il that desire 10 express is the
hope that il may be attended with the least iormaly
thai is consistent with entire respect to the wishes OF
my friends.
As your letter leads me 10 Believe that the Com
miitee design 10 invite me TO public dinner, and as
have been apprized that similar kindness is con-
lemplated in other places, trust shall be pardon
ed II express in advance OF more formal offers
the obligation shall feel myself under, to decline
such compliments.

thus anticipating the Intentions Of my friends; but
feel that in SO doing, may safely throw myself upon
their indulgence. need not assure them that can
never be unmindful Of any manifestation Of their
regard or confidence
DO me the favor TO make these sentiments known
TO the Committee, and 10 accept for yourself my

A sUB-TREAsURY ORACLE.

The political reader will remember that
tighten this nation, during the past spring,
upon the subject Of the Sub-Treasury system
and specie currency Of Cuba, through the
abored lucubrations of Mr. Trist our consul
at that island. Great efforts were made by
that gentleman to sustain the position taken
by the administration in reference TO an ex-
clusively metallic currency. The result OF
his researches and sophistries, tending TO
commend the operations of Sub-Treasury
system upon the business and trade OF
country, were spread before Congress by the
Secretary of the Treasury, and subsequently
before the nation through the Globe. Now
as the degree of credence and value we attach
to a mans writings may depend somewhat
upon his own character, and the circum-
stances which call them FORTH it may not be
uninteresting to hear something of this Mr..
Trist, who urges the Cuban Sub-Treasnry
system so zealously upon the United States.
We find the following in the New York
Times:
Mr. TRIsT-We have heretofore placed before our
readers an account Of the official outrages OF this ndl
vidua at The port Of Havana, and have not space now
TO repeat them in detail He caused the imprisonment
of several American citizens not aneable 10 the laws
of Span by suIrenderng them up TO the Judgment OF
| her tribunals, and denying them the privileges OF
trial, whereby they condemned to imprisonment
with common ions, at hard labor, for long terms, and
without any us,ifabc cause. He has been publicly
charged by the American citizens in Havana with hav-
ing "unjusiiy aud matcionsy abused and co,oardIy
deserted" citzens claiming his official protection lie
is declared by them TO be "imbecile and puslanimous
and not qualified for the performance OF the duties Of
his Office or who has heart The feelings Of an Ameri
| can! His conduct proves these charges to be true.
To this we may add that, Mr.. Trist is
renegade" from the ranks Of the Clay and
Adams parties. He was brought TO this city
by Mr. Clay, fos,ered by MIR. Adams, turned
his coat to gel salary and bread under Gen
Jackson and is now adopted by Mr. Van
Buren,, and is employed, like the viper
warmed into life by The kind husbandman, in
an ungrateful attempt to destroy his bene-
factor. .s.

LOCO-FOCOISM ALLIES ITSELF WITH Pc
LlTICAL ABOLITlONlSM

LOCo-FOCOISM ALLIES ITSELF WITH PO-
LlrlCAL ABOLITlONlSM.
The amalgamation of the Van Buren, party
in Ohio with the Abolitonists, under the lead
Of the champions Of Abolition and Van Blu
renism DR.. DUNCAN and THOMAS Morris,
was too palpable to lie disguised. Through
the professions and promises with which the
I.oco-focos approached the Abolitionists, po-
litical stimulus was given to that large class OF
misguided zealots, who might otherwise have
confined themselves to more appropriate
sphere, which overwhelmed the merits of the
various other questions that had arisen IN
the conflict of parties, and led the administra-
ton to an unexpected victory in that OPPOSE
ton State. That the Loco-focos would profit
by this successful experiment, and carry the
same policy into other States, was to be antcl-
pated. The same means by which party
safely accomplishes its ends in one place, Will
naturally commend themselves to their service
in other places; because like causes produce
like effects. Hence, after an amalgamatlen
with the Abolionists had gained for the Lo-
cC-locos toar Representatives and one Senator
in Congress from Ohio, what else could be
expected but general amalgamatlon OF the
Loco -focos with their natural allies the Abo-
litionsts, wherever such a coalition could pos
sbIy be effective Thus the Administration
accomplished the election OF JoHN SMITH,
Lnco-foco abolltionist, over Heman Allen, IA,
Whir,) in Vermont. The same tactics, they
introduced, with considerable success, into
some of the northern districts of New York.
Quite largely did they carry them into the con-
test in Massachusetts, with generally fatal
misconception, however, of the high character
of that people. They accomplished more by
it, nevertheless, than perhaps they might other-
wise have done; as for example, the election
to Congress Of Mr.. WILLIAMS, Loco-ioco
abolitionist, over Mr. Borden, Conservative,
and the election of several Loco-toco abol-
tionists to the State Legislature.
1t has been an argument jealousy urged
upon the people Of the North in favor of Lo-
CO focoism, that it was the natural ally Of,
ADOllttOlStn. All HleH are polu Tree anu
eoual;" this is our doctrine said the Loco
focos ave 90 for human rights, and equal
liberty, and these necessarily embrace UNI
