ABOLITTONISM.

We call the attention of the honest and in

2, n regard to the influence Of the election
OF Henry Clay, we think nobody is 50 well
qualified to Judge as Mr.. Clay himself. And
he says, in his letter Of September 8:
" So far from the success ofthe Whigca
having any injurious tendency, as has been
alleged, | believei it viii havea powerful effect
in tranquilizing and harnonizing all parts Of
the Union and IN giving confidence, strength
and security to all the interests Of our coun-
try"
This is a specimen Of Mr.. Clay's extreme
trankness. The meaning of it is, that so far
from his election having a tendency in favor
Of abolition, 1t will have a powerful effect in
reconclliRg the North to slavery, sitting abol-
ition, and will strengthen and protect slavery
along with all other "interests ofthe country"
