been ordered to survey the harbor by order Of
the Admiral on the Halifax station. and that as
soon u he could make a report. there would
be considerable force assembled there. In

by the British Admiral may be IN conlempla-

Letter from nIr. CLAW.

We find IN the Pittsburgh Pa. American OF the
llth the following letter from the Hon. HEsRY
CLAY, in a reply to an invitation from the Clay
Club Of Pittsburgh, to visit that city on bis re-
turn from the South next Spring
AsHLaND Dec I'd, 1913.
GgNTLEMEs: | have duly received the invita-
;ion which you have done me the honor to con-
vey, to visit Pittsburgh on my return home next
Spring from my visit to North Carolina 1rwonld
afford me very great pleasure again to see Pitts
burgh, a city which, more than any other n the
Union, except, perhaps, Lowell, manlests the
cherishing our own domestic and American IN
terests. have seen it, when it was compara-
lively in It's infancy, and on the occasion OF some
of nv former visits TO It much greater diversity
of opinion existed as tc the wisdom OF the policy
Of encouraging our home industry than prevails
at present. Now Throughout the whole extent Of the
Union, the Wing party IS happily united IN re-
markable degree as to the wisdom of that policy.
All members of il believe that the revenue neces-
sarv to an economical Administration OF the Gov
ernlnent should not be eXtorted by harrassing sys-
tens Of direct and internal taxation, but should
be raised exclusively by duties on foreign imports,
and that in arranging Tariff, of those duties,
reasonable, moderate and certain protection
should be extended to our domestic interests
Such Tariff Will possese pernanency and abu-
tv, quality far more essential and important
than high Tariff, producing dissatisfaction. tiuc
tuation and uncertainty. And it is matter OF
high qualification that although there are great
divisions Of opinion among our political opponents
as to the wisdom of this policy, vast numbers of
them realizing its indisputabie benefits from &C
iual experience, coincide in opinion with Us. /
think, therefore, we have much reason to antici-
pate that The events of next year will establish
this policy upon satisfactory basis, reconcIllng
all interests, and all parts of the Union. hope
that they Will also settle other great and interest
ing questions. and leave the Nation once more IN
quiet, to nurse successfully all the branches OF its
varied business in ful! confidence and perfect
tranquility.
To visit, gentlemen, your city under the bright
er and better auspices which are opening upon
us would afford me very great satisfaction, but |
apprehend that by the time | have crossed the
mountains on my return home, to say nothing of
the private interests which may demand my I'M
mediate presence there, shall be teo much ia
tigued TO enjoy the enthusiastic hospitality with
which am sure should be received by my fell
low citizens of Pittsburgh. | must therefore ask
you to accept my cordial thanks for the invitation
which you have transmitted, and request you to
appreciate Justly the motives which constrdin me
TO deny myself the pleasure Of accepting it.
pray you, gentlemen, also to accept assuran-
ces of the warm personal regard and esteem OF
your friend and obedicnt servant, Ii. CLAY
