SLAVERY DENOUNCED BY
HENRY CLAY.

At meeting of The Colonization So.
ciety, IN 1927. he used the following Ian
guage in reference to such as objected to
the agitation of the slave question.
"If they would repress all tendencies
towards liberty and ultimate emancipa>
ton. they must do more than put down
the benevolent efforts of this Society.
They must go back to the era Of our lib
erty and independence, and muzzle the
cannon which thundcrs ifs joyous return.
They must revive lie slave trade, with
all its train of atrocities. They must sup
press the workings of British philanthropy
seeking to ameliorate the condition Of the
West India slaves, They must arrest the
career of South America deIiYerance from
thraldom. They must blow out the NOR
al lights around us and extenguish the
greatest torch of all which America pre-
senis TO benightcd world. pointing the
way to their rights, their liberties. and
their happiness They must penetrate
the human soul and eradicate the light Of
reason and the love of liberty. Then and
not till then, when universal darkness and
despair prevail, can You perpetuate slave
~ and repress all sympathios and all hu-
name and benevolent efforts among free
men, in behalf of the unhappy portions Of
our ruce who arc doomed 10 bondage.
In another part of the same speech. he
spoke in the following emphatic and lofty
strain -
"If could be Instrumental eradicaing
this deepest strain slavery upon the
character of our country, and remove all
cause of reproach of it by foreign nations
-ifI could be Instrumental Of Kidding, of
this foul plot, that revered State Virgin
ia) that gave me birth-or that not less
beloved State (Kentucky) which kindly
adopted me as her son, would not ex-
change the proud satisfaction which |
should enjoy for all the honors or all the
triumphs ever d-cret to the most success
ful conquercr."

O. The PlebeIan has leading Editor
ial asserting that Manufactures have gen.
ally advanced in price since the present
Tariff was imposed, while Agricultural
products have declined. To back this
assertion, il gives table of alleged pri-
ces OF cotton goods and fannels last
Spring and now, showing an average rise
of about 25 per cent. But the knave
who makes this statement to prejudice
Manufacturers is very careful to suppress
the related fact that Cotton, the Agrcul-
turai Staple which is the basis of this man.
ufactu-e, has risen fifty per cent. during
the same period. So Of Fannels: the
rise in Wool has been fully equal to that of
WOODEN Goods. although American ia.
brics were so low last Spring that the
Plebeian a. Co. were chuckling over the
failures of leading manufactures. Now
times are better, and goods sell more ia.
vorably because the country is able TO
buy them, and the cry is raised that Nam
ufacturers are making twenty or thirty
per cent. by their business. This is false
again. A few lucky makers of fancy
goods have made large dividends. but the
average dividends on Manufacturing
stocks has not exceeded seven per cent.
even IN lS43. with an increasing market
and Cotton rising in price. Ii any man
Of means doubts this, why won't he en-
gage in Manufacturing He can buy
stocks IN good companies at par, or he
can buy factories now offering at auction
heir former proprietors having failed in
the business. If most of hose who talk,
Of twenty or thirty per cent. as an aver
age or general dividend on Manufacturing
stock did not know they were deceiving
they would be engaged in the business be-
fore month. But they do know bet
ter.-Tr bune.

1.-THE Republic" edited by Duff Green,
speaking of the course of Mr.. Calhoun, says
ne has the highest authority for saying,
"That Mr.. Calhoun will cordially support
port Mr.. Van Buren's election is Impossible.
Whether he may or may not take an active
part in opposition, in case the packed Con-
vention at Baltimore should perseyere in his
nomination, may depend upon the course
which Mr.. Van Buren's friends in Cossress
may take upon the questions OF Free Trade
and Abolition, and upon the nomination
which may be made by the 4th of July Con-
vention. That Convention will be constitu-
ted more in accordance with Mr.. Calhoun's
views and principles. 1t will represent the
true democracy Of the country, and consti-
tute the basis upon which it must rally. 1t
may be that Mr.. Calhoun himself will be the
candidate Of that Convention, and no one has
authority TO say that he will not be- If he is
not, that Convention will put in nomination
candidate who will doubtless receive the
support Of Mr.. Calhoun and his friends in
preference to Mr.. Van Buren,"

THE CELEBRATION.

The celebration of the Addison County
Temperance Society on the 22d came off we
believe to the full satisfaction Of every one
present. The assemblage of those Who have a
warfare with the most powerful despotic and
barbarous enemy of our race was highly re-
spectacle. The executions Of the choir I'M
der the direction of Mr.. Packard especially
aided by few female voices were peculiarly
attractive. We have seldom if ever listened
to more eloquent argumentative and con-
vincing appeal to the tribunal of public opin-
ion in support of the temperance cause,
than that of HARLEs ADAMS, ESQ.
Of Burlington, upon the occasion. 1t
was blow well laid on to the foe, and at
momentous period in the County of Addison.
Here if anywhere in the State the conflict
with King Alcohol is coming to crisis, and
we believe to a glorious triumph for those
who believe that nothing is more intimately
connected with The happiness of community
than the victorious progress of the temper
ance reform. Let blast after blast from the
temperance bugle be blown, until the old and
crazy fortress OF this modern Blue Beard,
founded in the appetite of the drunkard, and
sustained by the graspiug avarice of rum-sel-
lers shall be as completely PROSTATE as the ru-
ms of the ancient mother Of harlots.

them see to it, that their county papers are

matters which affect elections. and they.

Now is the most suspicious moment for
circulating the documents" when the
public mind is comparatively calm. When
the contest wakes warmer, mems minds
will be made up. and those who have
committed themselves will neither be re-
