LETTER OF SIR. CLAY.

LETTER OF SIR. CLAY.
We call the attention of readers TO the eItraor-
binary letter OF Henry Clay of the 18th Of last month";
the grea question o: :hs Tariff Il viii strike every
one with astcnshrient, who has been accustomed to
contemplate the retired Senator OF Kentucky the ia
lher Of The American System
The frank and fearless advocate Of high tariffs i,
seems, has been driven from the commanding position
which he has heretofore occupied upon that subject,
aud with all his boidnesS, the fear of losing ground
anti tariff latitude, has compelled him to ADM,
that high protective tariffs is not The policy OF the
American people To this We have great objection
il looks quite Democratic and we congratulate the
country upon this patriotic acknowledgment of The
retired Senator But looks rather sncakinq we think
after being chiefly instrumental in fastening upon the
country system which he now condemns to be
shutilsg the responsibility from his shoulders and
saddng II upon those s,annch Wing friends who
always adhered TO hun through good and throu yh
evil report He the great master spirit by which the
movements Of the High Tariff pnrty governed
and directed whether he was IN Congress not, when
the bill of shomnations, 10 which he refers,
passed and it IS rather late in the day to publish to
the world his deep adherence Of the disgraceful cir
cumsances which attended lis concep,io and par
turun. That measure carried by the party
of which he ~ the acknowledged heed, and however
black the inquiry IN which it conceived and
brought forth, he cannot escape the responsibility
which attaches 10 lis authors, by simple annuncia
of the fact, that he never u0ed Tor it lid did nj
vote for the Tariff bill Of lS42-that every body
knows but is generally believed that he advised and
urged its passage, and is therefore, much RESPONSE
bic for evil may produce if he r0ted for it
MIR Clay adduces IN this letter, his vote upon the Com
protnse bll, TO prove his opposition To the High Tariff
System rather his born Iteration the Demo-
cratic .."lr,Ga of low moderate duties. He sars
tha; h. voted for the Compromise Ac:, which greatly
modified tie provisions of the Tariff bills nf S25 and
1882. We admi, the fac, but @ho has forgotten the
remarks which he submitted when The Compromise
