Mr.. Clay-The Charleston correspondent
of the South Carolinan, under date Of the 9Th
inst, gives the following accoun. of Mr.. Clays
reception on his arrival IN that city:
"Mr. Clay is here. He arrived on Saturday
last al haIEpast two o'clock, by the Rail Road
from your city. No trouble or expense had
been spared by his friends to make his entry
into Charleston as imposing as possible, and
the crowd drawn together was consequently
large. am not disposed to derogate from the
appearance of his escort. It was respectable
enough, and except body of sailors, mostly
foreigners. and said to have been hired for The
occasion, would perhaps have been unohjec:
tionahie. After being put down at the New
Theatre, he delivered speech of two hours
length which did not hear. and was then ta-
ken to the residence of DR.. Porcher, where he
abides during his stay. In the evening meet
ing of the Clay Club took place, 10 which the
citizens generally were invited, Mr.. Preston
made all address Of nearly two hours-princi-
pally made up Of eulogies on MIR. Clay, and
some severe remarks on Mr.. Van Buren and
President Tyler. He denounced Democracy
in unmeasured terms, and occasionally gave
Mr. Calhoun some home ihnrsts. During one
of these an alarm of fire was raised. and crea-
ted considerable disturbance, hut fortunately
proved false one. By some il was thought
designed 10 let Mr. P. know he was treadng
on tickIish ground. before an audience consist
ing chiefly Of Democrats. W neither he took j!
as such or not he did not again allude 10 Mr..
Calhoun. A Ball was given 10 MIR. Clay last
evening at the Charleston Hotel. And this Of:
ternoon he is TO embark for Wilmington in the
Mail Steamer. Peace 90 with hip."

THE RATIFICATION.

The wing nomination at Baltimore seem:
10 be received through the nation with the
same unanimity and high enthusiastic feeling
with which it was made. There is but one
heart & one resolution to carry out the nomin
alton, and secure the country from the ruin
which the return offree trade would bring
upon it. We have noticed the great and en-
thnsiasiic meetings in Philadelphia and New
York. Another at Boston in Fanuel Hall
was GLORIOUS affair. Several SPLENDID speech
es were delivered to a numerous audience
amidst laundering peals of applause. Among
others, one from Daniel Webster who came
forward amidst the loudest cheers, the wav-
ing of hats by the men and handkerchief by
the ladies. He was followed by Govorner
Paine of Vermont. The meeting broke up
with cheers for Clay & Freelinghusen, and
- for Daniel Webster.

THE BoNDs-THE BONDS.

After 50 much ammunition has been spent
hv loud mouihed politicians in firing at Phan'
IONS. we now give a true version OF the whole
affair from which the bonds originated; and
we DEFY the contradiction of the material
facts which are compared in the following
statement taken from reliable source.
AT the session of 1871, in discussion or
the removal of Blair and Rives, as printers o.
the Senate, Mr. Clay took occasion 10 give
Blair lust such i castigation as he deserved
Senator King undertook to defend Blair. and
in the course of his speech used language
which Dir. Clay considered an Intentional ana
gross personal insult; and as SUCH, lie fePlieu
in as severe terms as he could use. Schaior
King instantly sent a note TO Mr.. clay, IN the
nature OF challenge to fight, but so framed
as to avoid the penalty Of the law Of Con
eress against dueIi.ns. This challenge MI
Clay did not then answer, and never mas
since answered. Senator Buchanan aud 9TH
erfricsds OF Mr.. King then got Mr.. hiIg put
uuder bonds 10 keep the peace towards mr.
Clay. ard subsequently, As matter oil cour-
tesv and fairness, Mir. Clay's friends put hIn
under bonds also. 4 few days alter this, VIZ:
on the last day of the session, Senator Pres
ton, (Nhig) brought the affair before theSen-
ate in an eloquent speech, expressing his as
surance, that the affair had grown out of a
misconstruction of Mr.. Kings language tow
ards Mr. Clay; Mr.. King then arose and dis
avowed nyintention of insulting the diStin-
guished Senator from Kentucky; Mr.. Clay
promptly made the dmeade honorable; and
both Senators, to The great JOY of the Senate
and of the publc,siepped forth upon the floor
and Joined hands in token Of reconciliation
and friendship.
These are the facts in relation to these hor-
rid bonds. DIR. Clay was throughout the as
sailed party, and when challenged by MIR.
King, did not accept. Both parties were for
ced to give bonds By their friends,an eInbra-
ced the first opportunity to settle the affair
amicably.
And yet in relation to this affair, Mr.. Clay
is singled out for the yilest abuse by the adj
mircrs Of Jackson, Benton,an otherduelists,
and their echoes of the third party press from
whom it proceeds with peculiar RELISH and
often with spicy additions.

instantly copied. The next day the Green

THE CONCERT.

Mr.. Packard's Juvenile Concert last week
in the Congregational church was attended
by large assemblage of our citizens Of both
sexes. The seats both above and below were
crowded. An excellent Piano was placed
upon the stage in trout of the pulpit, and ac-
compauied the voices Of nearly one hundred
youthful songsters. The music thus discOurs-
ed delighted the assembly. Several Solos
were performed with great accuracy and Ell
feet, and some by voices so sweet and inian-
tile as to create the tenderes: sympathies Of
the audience The proficiency of these ju-
venils performers in singing is certainly ex-
traordinaTy, and evinces the merit of Mr.. Pack
ard as their Instructor. His efforts in this
respect are entirely gratuiious, and yet he
spares no pains in this useful and interesting
labor We understand he intends to condn-
no his school during the season.

A CALUMNY EXPOSED.

The following il the substance Of the re-
MARKS made By Dir. White, in the House OF
! Representatives on "Wednesday ,upol reques-
ting suspension Of the rules TO give him an
opportunity of branding, as it deserved, the
outrageonsly false and calumnious account ii
the Washington Globe Of the aflrsy with Mr..
Rathbun on the previous day. The Locofo-
&C majority, with characteristic fairness, re-
/ fused 10 grant Dir. White the customary priv
ilege Of making personal explanation. New
eriheless, his brief remarks will serve to show
how grossly the Globe has violated the truth
in its report of the scene:
Mr.. White read from an article in theGlobe
of the 23d of April, Sill, headed "The Out
rage in the House." and remarked That he
had studiousIy avoided-yea, positively refu-
sed, though repeatedly called upon to give
any of the incidents or details OF the occur
renee, Of yesterday. lie feli from the begin
ming this was his duty. Mr.. w. added, Mr..
| Speaker this House has ordered a Select
Committee to investigate and report all The
facts connected with this rencounter. MIR.
| w. said he Dit not intend to allow himself to
| be provoked into a departure from the line
Of conduct he had marked out 10 himself az
proper; which was to keep his lips sealed as
to the particular facts of the transaction, I'M
til the Committee shall have reported Truth
and Justice, however, required him to speak
in general terms Of the article in the official
organ of the House.
That statement, purporting to relate the
incidents, as well as the particular language
used by both (Mr. Rathbun of n. Y. and
himself,l is full of gross misrepresentation,
SURPRISING material facts and expressions,
and detailing language that was not uttered
BY either party. Nov, without narratins one
incident that happened or attempting to re-
peat one word that was spoken by either par
ty for have said no injustice or falsehood
shall provoke me TO DO so at this time de-
liberately pronounce that any man, be he
whom he may, that will swear to the state
ment contained in the Globe of last evening,
beaded "the outrage in the House," without
qualification or material alteration, as con-
Ia nng the truth and The whole truth, will per-
jure himself before GOD aud man.
