There is a classic severity in the thought
aud style of Calhoun, that is perfectly fresh
and original. When | formerly attended
Congress before 1882, neither Clay, nor
Calhoun. were in the position they now oc-
ccupy towards each other. During my
visit here, | shall make it my business to
attend their efforts on every occasion, q to
satisfy myself of their talents and capabili-
ties without partiality, for belong 10 no
party but that Of intellect, Independence,
philosophy, woman, and may add, the al
mighty-dolIar. Neither ofthese eminent
men did ! ever speak to-neither of these
will | ever be introduced to, till have
made up my opinion Of their relative mer-
its and talents. The miserable trash,
praise and nonsense, which have heen
published of them. ] cast aside as fit only
for school boys. The little tilt to day will
probably We represented in two opposite
lights by the respective parlisans of each.
To nie it was evident that Calhoun had
the advantage of intellect, argument, and
s,atesmauship-Clay The superiority in
wit. voice, and isolated points. Mr.. Cal
houn's mind indicated more of that talent
which makes the statesman--Mr. Clay's
that which constitutes the popular orator
or stump speaker. Mr.. Clay is Cicero
MIR. Calhoun Julius Cesar.
At the close. MIR. Calhoun took the op-
portunity TO declare, solemnly, THAT he was
no "aspirant for the Presidency" The
delicate irony Of this remark seemed to
produce little effect on his great rival.
But enough of Clay and Calhoun for the
present. As these two men promise ID
be future rivals 10 this country, shall take
especial pains 10 watch their movements,
and come to some independent and accu-
rate conclusion Of their respective merits,
before return.
