An ARRAY in Congress.

A most unpleasant and lamenabIe oc'

personalities yesterday, the unvarnish-
ed facts Of which, as near as we have
been able 10 ascertain them, are as fol-
lows:
Mr.. White, Of Kentucky, addressed
the Committee Of the Whole upon the
subject Of the Tariff, and took occasion
in his speech TO repeI certain gross,
false and malicious charges, revamped
up and rsissued against Mr. Clay by OF
under the sanction of members OF Con-
gress. After disposing Of the charge oI
bargain and intrigue. reuitered by his
colleague, Mr. Linn Boyd, he noticed
that lately put forth that Mr.. Clay had
said on some occasion 10 the House oI
Representatives that il they, the slave
holders, were deprived of their black
slaves, they must use white ones. Mr.
White referred TO the fact that several

ployed her family physician to attend

MISSOURI AWAKE.

LEXINGTON CoNvENTIoN--As yet, we have no
detailed accounts OF the great Wing Convention
at Lexington last week, after it had fairly get
under way. We have enough to assure us, how
ever, that it was noble gathering, worthy of
Wings, in numbers, in enthusiasm, and in deter
mination, to do their duty in that section Of the
State, even if others should fail in theirs.
We learn from passenger, that the delega-
tons from Clay and Jackson counties arrived at
Lexington, in the Mary Tompkins, on the evening
of the l7lh-the day previous TO that appointed
for the convention. They were received at the
landing by the Wings, with mos. cordial greet
ing. A procession was formed in the lower town
and marched up the main town road. There,
without any regular organization, the concourse
of people was addressed by numerous speakers,
the most prominent of whom were Col Woods,
of Clay, Col. Ovens, of Jackson, Mr.. Bowman, of
Howard, Mr.. Edwards, and Mr.. Campbell 1t
was after midnight before the meeting adjourned,
and oft-repeated, loud and enthusiastic were the
shouts which went up from the multitude. About
. o'clock Of the morning. of the 18th, the steamer
Lewis r. Linn arrived, literally covered with dele
cations from the lower counties. A joyouswel-
come was given TO them, and procession was
formed and marched to the top of the hill Here
a grand organization took place, and they march,
ed to the ground appointed for the convention.
Among the objects most worthy of remark, and
most cheering to the hearts Of all true Wings,
were the manly forms of several venerable soldiers
of the Notwithstanding standard, with the
motto Wines OF '76." Their dress and gene
raj appearance was unique, and such as spoke of
days long past; and their presence on this occa-
sion was hailed as most convincing argument in
favor of the Wing cause They took the lead in
the procession.
About 10 O'Clock, the steamer Admiral, crowd
ed with delegates from Andrew, Buchanan, and
Platte counties, arrived. The Convention was
then organized. The Rev. Mr. Yantis was intro
duced and made most appropriate and eloquent
address to the throne Of grace.
Our informant left Gen. Doniphan, the Wing
Eector for the Third District on the stand ma
king most effective speech 1t was his impress
sion that there was then from four to fve thousand
persons on the ground, and still they were coming
by battalions. All was enthusiasm and good
feeling, and sure we are that good will grow out
Of this assemblage of the Wings of northwestern
Missouri.
The steamers Annawan and Western Belle,
with parts of the St. Louis and other delegations,
we're met below Lexington. We may expect the
return of our delegates to-day.
