COMMUNICATE late meeting Of
;nc Coloniza,ian Society in Washington, Mr..
Clay introduced the following interesting
fact, ~ illustrating the advantages Of the
colonization scheme.
"A very respectable and reverend man
in Alabama, whose face never hnd seen,
bequeathed TO me, by his will, in abso-
lutte right, some twenty five or thirty slaves.
No cause was mentioned in the terms 81!
the Request, and ! was greatly surprised
by tho announcement of a fact SO entirely
unexpected; but had some belief that the
design ol the tes:ator in consigning these
slaves to my care was that they should be
sent to Liberia. ] accordingly took the
necessary means 10 accomplish this design /;
md since my arrival in this city, have re-
ceivcd intelligence that twcnty-three Of
their number have been embarked nj New
Orleans for the Coast Of Africa, and arc Free
~, and with their entire assent, going back
TO the home Of their ancestors. Applause.
What would have been their condition had
they remained? In Alabama they could
not have been free. The laws ofthat State,
stimulated, rs have said, by tho course Of
the abolitionists mt tho north, have prohibi-
ted, Internationally, oil emancipation Of q
slave; and, in fact, had TO take these ne
grocs as my own slaves 10 New Orleans,
aud they were so regarded until they were
placed beyond the jurisdiction Of tho Uni.
tod States. Nor is Alabama the only State
which from the same cause, has been indu.
ced to make her laws more stringcn, than
before; many others have enacted laws Of
the same general character, subjecting
emancipation to many restrictions, end
even to rigorous penalties"

THE TARIFF OF 1916.
H. CLAY.

The Cotton Planters of the South, in and out OF
Congress, must nolC see the absolute necessity OF
protecting and cherishng manufactures all over the
country. The startling revolutions in Europe
have, for the present at least, deprived the cotton
planters of the advantage of the continental mar
kets, and should Great Britain become entanged
with crumbling thrones and rising republics, she
may not require much if any cotton until oil be
poured over the troubled waters.
The time is not far off when the planters OF cot
ton may be compelled TO look chiefly to home
markets for the sale of their staple, and yet great
many Of them oppose protection to this great and
important branch of the business Of the United
States Had the Tariff of lS42 been permit
ted to stand, the manufacturers OF cotton in this
country would be consuming this year six or seven
hundred thousand bales. We doubt If it be more
than four hundred and fifty thousand bales And
with such protection il must be clear to all practi-
cal men Of business that in few years the domes.
tic consumption of the raw material would reach
one million of bales That cotton would be at this
writing two cents pound higher if the Tariff OF
1912 had not been revoked, there is no question.
the writer is nota sufferer neither being planter
nor manufacturer. SoUTHERNER.

CLAY FESTIVALS.

On Wednesday last the Wing Young Men OF
Philadelphia city and county celebrated the ami
versary of the birth of HENRY CLAY by brilliant
festival at the Chinese Museum the large saloon
of which was literally thronged with people, and
superbly ornamenled with flags notices, and other
appropriate devices.
WILLIAM s. PRICE presided aided by large
number Of Vice Presidents.
Judge CONRAD, JOHN Nj. BORIS, CHARLES CIR
BoSs, HORACE GREELEY, u. COLLINS LEE, II. w.
DUrFIELD, and others addressed the assembly in
animated strains.
The regular toasts compliment the eminent public
services of Mr.. CLAY exalt the services and patri-
otism of Generals ScoTT and TAYLoR sustain the
Tariff Of AZ; sympathize with the French Revo-
luton, &c.
Altogether, the evening appears to have been spent
most agreeably, and much to the satisfaction OF all
who participated in its festivities.
On the same day similar celebration took place
at Apollo Hall, New ork, which was numerously
attended by the friends of Mr. CLAY, and presided
over by PHILIP w. ENGs.
The programme of proceedings was pretty much
the same at Philadelphia.
The principal speakers were DUDLEY SELDEN,
DAVID ULMAN, and THEODORE ToMLINsoS.
