Whatever may be the case with respect 10 the
rumor Of the abandonment of the Compromise by
its leading friends, and general succumbmg to The
cabinet, as affecting some of those gentlemen, the
speech Of Mr.. Clay, yesterday, in the Senate, is
conclusive, to its total naccuracy, far he is
concerned. Never was position more ably, more
gallantly, or more nobly maintained, either in
hall or battlefield, than by glorious Harry of
the West, at whose voice the heart of the country
thrills and LEAPS with joy the horse pants at
the trumpet sounding the charge That speech
marked new phase the present conrroversy-a
phase most significant of meaning and most preg-
nant IA probable results. IienccfUrth the admins
trauon and the leading wings IN Congress are at
rance-a variance which may possibly be recon
ciled, but which most likely will lead TO open hos
hltN, aud finally war to the knife, IN the case
OF President Tyler and the party who were the
means OF placing him IN power Thus, for the
second time within A few ycnrs, has the great wing
party, in its eager aud fierce forts Ia nom
nal triumph, stUltiied itself and pushed the prize
boats, and 10y their own hasty brraihs, wait them
beyond their depth, and can only sgb aud watch
them as they tOei out To sea, never 10 return.

hes spared the administration the crushing force OF
che centrastve :, rallrl betweeue he Compromise
aud tho position OF The Pi'sidsni which yesterday
he so yividly aud sogu.nily drew. The effect
Of that spe, oh has already hern great. aud may be
sufficient To awaken the administration ~ "A sense
Of its real weakness should Il become finally -ept-
rated from iis friends IN Congress, and To restore
COED understanding between the two ends II the
capital. should this, however, not be the case,
am assured on very high Wing senatorial authority,
that the only force the administration will possess
an the Senate, will be the two Senator'S from Della
ware.
