IV'It has been eloqueniy and truly
said, that If christianity was compelled to
flee from the mansions of the great, the
academies of philosophers, the halls Of
Legislators. or the throng Of busy men,
we should find her last retreat with wo-
man at the ireside. Her last audience
would be the children gathering around
the knees Of mother; her last sacrifice,
the secret prayer, escaping in silence
from her lips, and heard, perhaps, only at
the throne of God!

HENRY CLAY-Justice as slot0, but sure.
In speaking of Mr.. Clay, Mr.. FOote, a
most bitter democrat from Mississippi,
said in speech in the Senate the other
day:-
"THe Senator from Kentucky ,oas an
open and fearless advOcate Of principles;
there soas no sq~i0ocating or lodging
questions by him. He aoas a man knoa0n
to the country as one sohOse opinions aoere
necer disguised"
We put this upon record for two reas-
ons. 1t is highly deserved compliment
from bitter political opponent. ltsives
the lie direct to charge that has been
repeated an indefinite number Of times in
almost every campaign, in which MIR. Clay
was engaged. 1t needs no further com.
ment from us.

No sooner, however, had this been ef-

not guilty of any violation of pledges.
