The Washington Madisonian contains the most
Pltiiul, despisable attack upon Mr.. Claws parting
address in the Senate, that ever appeared in the
meanest Pennv-a-lner party print since politics be-
came subject of contention. That sweeping
clause in his letter to the North Carolina Conven.

president without party" secms to have wranked

attack as would be secure against reply from Mr..
Clay. His parting address gave that opportunity,

field against it; but we do wonder that The Madiso-
MAN can persuade itself that any organ of John Ty-
Ter can possibly possess influence enough TO do in
