Mr.. CLAY's REsoLUrIoNs--W publish, to-day
the resolutions offered by Mr.. Clay. IN the meet
ing at Lexington, KY, and much regret that
our limited space prevents from giving, also,
the speech of that great Wing Statesman. The
latter mastery effort; was studied and pre-
else, although endeavorS were made to impress up
on the public that no oraorcal boquets'' would be
introduced 1t was great speech, mot from the high
toned American sentiments which usually abound
in that great mans speeches; for, in these quail
ties it was inadequate; but because il was argumen-
tntive, deineatve, and mastery effort to pul
our country in the wrong in despite of the great
mass of testimony staring daily in the face.
The RESOLUTIONS q re ali that we give TO our
readers, but they contain the embodiment of Mr..
Clay's sentiments, upon the aliimportant topics
that now occupy public attention and we advise
all readers who DO not file the Inteltigencer to
cut them out and paste them up somewhere about
their houses, where they be referred to during
the ensuing twelve months. When they hear the
war called Mr.. Folks war, let them look, and here
they will see that Mr.. Clay recognises it as Ma
lional When they hear Mr.. Polk denounced Ger
not pursuing this course and that, here they will
find this great whig leader declaring that the Pre-
sident is left to his guidance, in the conduct
of the war. When they hear it denied or doubt
ed let them look, and here they will see 1cLich
side of the WIlmot Proviso question Mr.. Clay is
on. He objects TO acquiring ANY foreign terri
tory. whatever, for the purpose OF propagating
slavery, orinlroducng slaves from the U. States -
and the Wilmot Proviso provides that no slares
shall be carried into any territory that mag be here
after acquired.
Next week we will devote more space and
leisure TO this subject.
