HE MEETING OF MR. CLAY AND GENERAL TAY.
LoR. Our readers aware that Henry CLAY "a name
that requires preface) has been soionrning in
Natehez for some days past. He arrived in this city
yesterday, in the steaalboat Princess I;NVhen the
Princess stopped at Baton Rouge, the passengers
among whom was Mr.. Clay, were all sitting at din.
ner. 1t happened that General Brooke and Colonel
Taylor were coming down to the city, and, concIud
ing to take the Princess, they came aboard. accom-
panied by General Taylor. As the General passed
by the dinner-table, he recognized Mr. Clay, and
bowed to him; but Mr.. Clay not appearing to recog-
nize him, gentleman at the table remarked, s'ML
Clay, that is General Taylor"
sis 1t 20 calculated Mr. Clay, with surprise and
pleasure IN his countenance and Immediately eav-
that warm frankness and earnestness characteristic
OF him, extended his hand to the General who grasp
ed 1t very warmly, and shook it very energetcally
NV ny, General, pleasantly remarked Mr.. Clay,
s'you have grown out of my recollection ~
"You can never grow out of mine, - was the ready
response of the General, whose countenance beamed
with warm regard, and whose good-natured wrinkles
almost obscured his bright and benevolent eyes.
congratulate you, General, upon your election
to the Presidency, and I hope your administration
may be as successful and glorious as your military
career - remarked Mr.. Clay
:" thank you, Mr.. Clay but am not President
Here Mr.. Clay, perceiv1ing that the Generals mod
esty was about to get the better of him. broke in with
some playful remark, which led to a general and
most agreebe conversation between the two distin'
guished gentlemen.
The Captain Of the Princess, not wishing to inter
ruPt so pleasant reunion of two old friends detain
ed the boat for soma time. Finally, however, the
General and Mr.. Clay parted, with expressions Of
mutual esteem, and hope that they might soon meet

REMARKS OF Mr.. TAYLOR,

Delivered in the House of Commons, the Goth
instant, on Mr.. Steele's Resolutions.
Mr.. Taylor said it was very unpleasant to him to
occupy position apparently dfrent from that of his
friends on this floor. But as he had been compli-
mentarily alluded for his course by the gentleman
from Beaufort, he thought it his duty to define his
position. HI know myself, said Mr.. T., when these
Resolutions came up at their second reading, my
most anxious desire was, that they should pass with
out any apparent division. He knew they had been
reported to the House from select committee; and he
was aware that there were some gentlemen in the
Hall who had constitutional scruples in admitting
that Congress had power to legislate on the sub
iect of slavery in the territories. For this reason
he requested the gentleman from Mecklenblrg to
Withdr the cali for the yeas and nays. But that
gentleman thought proper to persist in his call. Mr.
I. did not intend to be driven into declaration on
either side. Again, when the Resolutions came up
for their third reading, the gentleman from Beaufort
ond reading by majority Of his own party, inter
posed every obstacle in his power to prevent their
final passage. He, Mr. T., again deprecated the par
y cast that gentlemen seemed desifOus give them
He besought that gentleman, as he had defined his
position and been excused from voting to withdraw
his opposition to the resolutions and let them pass at
once. Mr.. T. had not consulted with any of his |
Democratic friends, but he believed he could promise
in the of the Democratic party that If the gem
tleman would permit the House to act on the Resolu
tons without farther delay, that there would be
call for the yeas and nays his side of the House.
But the gentleman still resisted the action of the
House, contending that they were party Resolutions
Now Mr.. Speaker, said Mr. T., am driven, by the |
obstinate of gentlemen on this floor to assume
or the other side of this question. But without
presumng to arrogate to myself the name of Judge
of constitutional law, have my doubts both as to
the eonstitutionaliy and expediency of declaring that
Congress has power to legslate on the subject of
slavery in the territories. But as neutral course
might be construed into want of attachment and |
devotion to Southern lnstitut tfons, feel it my duty
to waive all my scruples and give my support to the
leading doctrines of the South.
