1Hc last Rerelotion jrom lie Tllpod!

Mr.. Clay has just published the speech which
he delivered at Raleigh in April last. The Ma
tional Inleligencer recommends il 10 "the old and
the Young" 'as the last speech on general politics
which they probably ever will have" from Mr..
CLAY. and as the chart Of Wing principles" of
which Harry of the West is the recognized elnbo-
dimeni. The Globe speaks Of it as THE crudest,
feebest badest, poorest OF Mr.. Clay's oralions =
as ''he erylast trimmings, indeed from the dregs
and ices of an exhausted political life" The Globe
also promises TO analyze it, and We are happy
10 see it undertake an Office which it is 50 we'll

a hit by way of anticipation, which Mr.. Clay
richly deserves. The Orator, in his Exorlium

can sci the mind of the Lynchburg Virginian at

the Baltimore Convention met not because OF any
objection to the candidate or the cause but because
he was unable to undergo the severe labors of an
ariuous campaign. Norman in the State is more
staunch than Mr.. A. Smith.
