= On the 18th ult. Mr.. King. of Alabama and
Mr. Clay, of Kentucky, had little warm sparring
in the Senate, growing out Of the remarks of MIR.
Clay on resolution dismissing Blair and Rives as
Printers to the Senate. Wehave not seen their OBJ
jcctionabe remarks, but in after explanations in the
Senate, Mr.. Clay remarked that
cit was the privilege of every member of Con-
gress, and the undoubted privilege of every member
of parliament, to speak with the most perfect free
dom of all persons in power-of all men; and OF all
measures-to denounce those in power as corrupt as
tyrannical--and measures, as fraaght with ruinous
consequences to the country. 1t was the right of
every member Of Congress and of Parliament to
speak with the most perfect freedom of all persons,
whether in office or candidates for oflic"
And yet this same gentlemen challenged and shot
John Randolph, Of Roanoke, for the exercise of this
privilege In the exercise of his privileges, Henry
Clay has stigmatzed citizens, the squatters, as
public robbers, land pirates, &c. &c. and they, by an
upright course of conduct prove his assertions to be
as false as his heart is impure.
