MR.. CLAWS SOUTHERN FACE.

As the National Intessncer and the Northern
Wing papers generally are attempting 10 prove 'ns'
MIR Clay is in favor of the Tariff, and Colonel Polk
against it, We copy the following from Mr. Clay's
letters and speeches, that the Northern Democracy
may understand his true position. AT the South he
is anti Tariff and al the North for high TARIFFS
will be seen by the following extracts
HENRY CLAWS OPINIONS ON THE TARIFF
QUESTION.
The following extract is from the speech Of Mr..
Clay in the Senate of the United States on the 2lst
January, 1912, in reply to Mr.. Woodbury., on the
Treasury Note bill-rsporlsd for the Washington Ma
tionoi INtsilgenee;
"Carry out then, said he, the spirit Of the Compro-
mise act-look TO revenue alone for the support OF
Government Do not raise the question OF protection,
which bad hoped had been put 10 rest There Is
no necessity OF protection for protection"
ISL never was in favor of what regarded a
high Tariff. No revenue should be levied
than is necessary to economical administration Of
the Government-.M Ciay's Letter TO Mr.. .ueri,ce-
Their, Of Georgia, Oct ,, ls43.
Il p never was in favor of duties being so high
as to amount t. prohibition Of articles which they
we're laid. | have thought il best for all interests
that there should be competition Letr Of Mr.. Clay
10 .Mssus Branham and Bssos, Of Georgia, July sh,
l643.
n5 Agriculture needs no protectien-Same to
Same.
From the Savannah Republican, the leading Clay paper
Of Georgia.
" We deny that Mr.. Clay, or the Wings Of Geor-
ga whose candida he U.s. seek for the establishment
Of Protective Tariff, but Mr.. Clay adheres 10 the
principles of the Compromise act"
HENRY CLAY IN FAVOR OF A NATIONAL
BANK.
He was 10 favor of a BANK OF THE UNI
TED STATES. All nations give us the example"
Again, Mr. Clay, at Charleston, S. c., was equally
explicit. The Courier" of that city, in noticing
his speech, said:
"Mr. Clay assumed that Banks and the Banking
System would continue TO exist under the auspices
of the States and thence inferred the necessity of
NATIONAL BANK TO REGULATE AND CON
troll .he system, and keep it from explosion and
mischief. He also insisted on National Bank as
accessory TO secure a National Currency" &c.
