MAGNAN1MrTY OF HENRY CLAY.-Eve-
nv person, who has or may read the speech
Of the Hon. HENRY Clay, on the subject
Of Abolition, must have been or will be
struck with the lofty magnanimity with
which he treats Mr.. Van Buren, and his
supporters. While the Van Buren, press,
" Tray, Blanche, Sscesthsart, EHle dogs
and all" are in fulLcry against Mr.. CLAY,
and accuse him of being an Abolitionist,
or, at least, fayoring their incendiary views,
he acquits Mr.. Van Buren, and his party
of all charges of similar character, in the
following remarkable language:
Other causes have conspired with the
British example to produce the existing
excitement from abolition. / SAY it with
profound regret, but with no intention to
occasion irritation here or elsewhere, that
there are persons in both parts of the I'm.
ion who have sought to mingle abolition
with politics, and to array one portion OF
the Union against the other. 1t is the
misfortune in free countries that, in high
party times, disposition too often prevails
to seize hold of every thing which can
strengthen one side or weaken the other.
Prior to the late election of the present
President of the United States, he was
charged with being an abolitionist, and
abolition designs were imputed to many of
his supporters. Much as was opposed
10 his election, and am to his Adminis' ra-
ton, neiahes sharod ;a.--Saalzinu nor bo
lieving the truth of the charge. lie was
scarcely installed in Office before the same
charge was directed against those who
opposed his election.
Mr.. President, it is not true, and re.
ioice that it is not true, that either of the
two great parties in this country has any
designs or aim at abolition. / should
deeply lament if it were true. should
consider, if it were true, that the danger
to the stability of our system would be in
finitely greater than any which does, / hope,
actually Whilst neither party can
be, l think, justly accused of any abolition
tendency or purpose, both have pro6ted,
and both have been injured, in particular
localities, by the accession or abstractioa
of abolition support. If the account
were fairly stated, believe the party to
which am opposed has profted much
more, and been injured much less, than
that to which belong. But / am far,
for that reason, from being disposed to ac-
cuse our adversaries of being abolition
lists. ~

STORM AM. SH1PwREcK.-A dreadful storm
occurred on the coast of England on the 9Th
of January, in which several vessels and ma.
ny lives were lost. Three noble American
packet ships were amongst the number, viz /:
the Pennsylvania, the ST. Andrew, and the
Oxford. No lives were lost on board the two
latter ships. but the Pennsylvania lost her Cap
tain, Smith the first and second mates, four
OF her passengers, and seven seamen. mad
ditiOn to the loss Of these fine vessels and their
cargoes, the British emigrant ship IOckwoods
with more than hundred passengers, was
driven ashore, and 40 or so souls persisted.
The ship Victoria, from Charleston, laden with
cotton, was also driven ashore, but 600 bales
Of cotton have been saved from her without
damage: Many other vessels were wrecked
in the same hurricane. The gale did much da-
mage on land also. and it is represented 70
have been one of the severest that has ever
happened on the coast. The loss to the Ma.
rine Insurance Companies must be very se-
we're, as the ships and eargoes were valuable.
The Pennsylvania was insured for $50 600.
and the Oxford for $4,000. FheWhole loss
viii probably amount tomore thana million 81
dollars.

CoLD WEATHER.--FOr sometime past the
weather has been mild and spring-ike; the
fruit trees put forth their blossoms, gardens
were prepared and planted, and peas and nu-
mercus other vegetables were fourishing un-
der genial sun. On Saturday evening cold
North wind sprung up, and the weather since
has been excessively cold for the season. Yes
terday morning, at sun rise, our thermometer
stood at 20 degrees, or 70 degrees below the
freezing point. We fear that our fruit viii
be destroyed, and that many Of our citizens
win be obliged to re-plant their gardens.
