lie has the highest respect and greatest
Difference for religion and its ministers and
we believe that there is not clergyman who
shows him that does not cherish towards him
cordial esteem and regard On the memora-
lie occasion last fall. of the great discussion
etween the Rev. Messrs. Campbell and Rice 10
1r. Clay by common consent, was selected v
o preside at the public meeting. He has con. pc
ributed with as much liberality as he could,
o the building, we believe, of every church, at
r house of divine worship that has been erec- w
ed during his abode in or near Lexington, of co.
which there have been many. He has al. Sc
Ways held pew in the Episcopal church in pI
his city, of which his lady is communicate, ar
nd he generally attends divine service on the 0p
abbath, when at home. No man in the I'M
ommunity displays more public spirit, or is SCI
lore ready to second and succor all objects It'll
public improvement and enterprise. AS
inner, he is conspicuous in all the depart col
tents of his vocation, but especially in the exl
nprovement of the breeds OF all domestic an- see
nails. Nor is there any one whose heart is thi
ore afflicted by cases of afflicton or misfor- so
me, or whose purse is more open to relieve age
e distressed. che
Such is the individual upon whose head Bit rae
r, malignant and vindictive enemies are con- bat
antly pouring out torrents of vile abuse and ii
dummy. But, to use his own emphatic lam unit
lage, "truth is omnipotent, and public JUS the
ce is certain" The universal shouts of his app
have already proclaimed, III tones hey
thunder, his innocence and his vindlcaton; bee
ID if il shall please God to spare his valuable the
