Letter from MIR. Clay.

The following lie Hon. Henry Clay's reply to the
invitation Of citizens Of Lexington TO attend free
barbecue Of Democrats and Wings:
ASHLAND, October 10, 1850.
GENTLEMEN: have received, with the livclicst
feelings Of thankfulncss and gratitude the friendly
note " hich you did me the honor TO address to me-
inviting me TO attend free barbecue which my
neighbors and other felow-citizcns of Kentucky
Wing and Democratic, are preparing 70 give on
the 18th instant, testimony of their approba-
ton of the public services of mysof and other mem
bcrs Of Congress during the late protracted session
in the adoption Of measures intended 10 heal the
divisions existing in tho country, and to secure
harmony and concord.
During the arduous struggle in Congress, IL wac
source Of great satisfaction and encouragement
TO me 70 learn from Kentucky that my fellow. citi-
Eens in this State, without distinction Of party,
we're almost unanimous in favor of those measures,
long discussed, which were designed to recon
cie sectional differences and preserve the Union
free from all danger. am rejocod, upon my re-
turn home, to find that wns not mistaken IA TO
the state Of public opinion in Kentucky. My Dem
ocratic fellOw-Citizens have met and welcomed me
with cordially aud warmth not surpassed by the
Wings, and both parties have united in gratifying
demonstrations OF their attachment and confidence
II Is highly honorable and consoing TO the patriot
lem Of our country that, on such great and porous
occasions az that which occurred during the late
session OF Congress, parties will lay aside all their
divisions and strifes, and heartily Cooperate in the
preservation Of that glorious Union without which
we have no moro guarantee for the enjoyment Of
liberty any other political blessing.
cherish the hope and entertain the confident be-
lief that the system Of measures passed by Con-
gross will finally be acquiesced in by the great
body of the United States, and lead to quiet and
tranquility. Malcontcnts at the North and South
may seek 90 continue revive agitation, but, re-
bukcd and discountenanced by the masses, they
will ultimately be slenced generally, and induced
10 keep the peace.
Having returned home, gentlemen, in delicate
health, and greatly wanting rcpose, should have
preferred TO avoid the ceremonies and excitement
incident to the barbecue, especially as that was not
needed 10 me Of the kind and friendly feel
ings towards me, entertained by my neighbOrs
and fcllow-citizens Of all parties. But ns under
stand that extensive arrangements have been made
and invitations sent out, which would occasion
much disappointment If the barbecue were not
served up, accept your invitation with great plea
sure. And, in behalf Of those patriotic members Of
Congress who co-opereted in the measures of adj
justment, and for myself, tender expression Of
profound Acknowledgements for tho appreciation Of

Tehusntepec Observation-Disclosures and Inter
national Intercourse.

Whether considered in a national or inter
national in commercial or political point Of
view, there is certainly no work of external i'm
provement Of so much importance 10 the citi-
zens Of the United States as a direct communi-
cation with our Pacific possessions. The mag
nfcent conceptions Of BENToS, WHITNEY, and
FoRsHEY, each Of which proposes railroad
connexion with the coast Of Oregon or Califor-
MIA. will no doubt be carried out at some future
period, when the population and production Of
the intervening country will require IT, In
the mean time, as a temporary provision for the
accommodation of one OF two generations, the
most direct and immediate connexion will be
by some one Of the Isthmian routes. We cannot,
of course, enter upon their comparative advan-
tages. Each has its advocates. We doubt whe-
ther any thing short of ship-canal Of the largest
dimensions would change the heavy commerce
which now doubles Cape Horn, OF give to the
United States the full benefit Of her geograph-
cal position. We doubt whether any railroad
portage with the necessary transhipments will
| enable us to offer transportation lower than the
| ocean freights now quoted by the authorities
upon the subject But we are confident that
the superior speed and safety Of some line across
the Isthmus will secure monopoly Of the travel
and the transportation Of gold and merchandise
| Nor have we seen any route recommended by
more favorable considerations than that across
the Isthmus of Tehuantepec. If we com.
pare the distance from San Francisco to New
York via the Panama route with that via the
Isthmus Of Panama. we find saving Of about
400 miles Of ocean navigation,
But the difference in favor Of the Tehuante
pee route Will, we think, appear more plainly
! by taking it in connection with an inboard rout,
through the United States, instead Of tho coast
wise route at present adopted The advantages
Of such a route are evident. The steamers
across the gulf will be less expensive than thos,
which run around the coast. The travel viii
be safer upon the railroads and steamboat

The Victoria (Texas) -Aduocate, in noticing an
article from the San Antonio Ledger, published
in our paper of yesterday,) in regard to the Indian
hostility in Texas, calls attention to the fact stated
by its correspondent that six companies of Texas
rangers were about to be ordered into service for
the protection Of the people the Indian frontier.
The San Antonio Wtstern Team Of the Both in
slant says;
"The district court for Bexar county is now in
session, the Hon Nj. p Norton presiding. Within
the last four months the seeds of crime have ger
minated in our midst, and borne sutlciency OF
their bitter fruits for any town county in the
State. This state OF things ID not the result of any
peculiar depravity the part Of our citizens. The
chief part, If not the whole Of those now charged
with criminal offences, being residents of other
counties, or transient persons, attracted towards
this point from variety of causes. Although not
supporting as many clergymen as Galveston or
Houston, we can boast for our resident population
that they are as much of a God fearing and law
abiding people as any in the State.
sour citizens are at present busy engaged in
making lmprovements-building dwelling houses
and stores, and talking about railroad. After a
while we will have many churches as Galveston
Houston. Who doubts ?"
By an arrival from Galveston, the New Orleans
Bee put in possession Of Texas papers to the 10th
instant, inclusive.
The Galveston Journal says:
'Of twenty-three political papers, printed in
this State, (rcceived at this ofhce) ten opposed
TO the Boundary bill, nine in favor of it, and
the balance, (four,) we are unable to classify
The latter, we presume, are about equally divided.
cit will be readily admitted that large MAORI
y of the people in favor of the bill therefore it
seems somewhat singular that the largest number
OF our newspapers should be opposed TO it.
letter from Walker county says that nine
tenhs of the voters of that district will go for
cepting the Boundary bill. The writer speaks OF
the cotton fair average crop, and of corn as
scarce and high.
Another letter from Harrison county says the
cotton crop Is turning out much better than was
anticipated The corn crop has been quite abun-
dant. An immense immigration has made corn
growing very lucrative in eastern Texas for the
last few years.
The accounts of the sugar crop on the lower Bra
EOS and Caney are somewhat discouraging. The
most plan tations has ripened only three or
four feet high, and in some instances it is hardly
worth cutting. Scarcely half crop will be made

Captain Berry, of the brig Harriet, which ar
rived at this port yesterday from Maracai6o, left
the brig Horatlo Captain Green, for New York In
few days. The Horatio had been detained al
Maracaibo over three months, in consequence oil
some trifling inlornaty in her papers and, after
much litigation and expense, the court ordered the
removal of the embargo unjusty laid on, but de-
creed that the expenses of the procedure should be
betrayed by Captain Green, who protested against
the entire proceedings, and left the matter TO be
decided by the American consul.
The stability Of the government was shaken to
it's foundation, and many similar acts Of dishonor
and degradation had, from time to time, been re-
sorted 10 for the maintenance Of the mnons Of the
present administration.
The continued scarcity of money, and tho de-
preston OF commerce, coupled with the payments
OF the half-yearly instalments TO foreign govern
ments, had caused much discomfort, and the gen
eral opinion that another outbreak would oc-
cur Immediately on the meeting of Congress
10 avert the threatened danger the authorities had
had recourse TO the press gang system as the only
available method OF augmenting the army.

Mr.. Webster's reply TO Mr.. Hill.
WAsHINGrnN A nril % lShn

Hon. ISAAC HILL:
Dear ST: ! regard such letter from you as
that of the 18th OF this month, extraordinary
and gratifying incident in my life. For a long
course OF years have belonged to opposing par
ties, espoused opposite measures, and supported for
high office men Of very different political opinions.
We have not. however, taken different views OF
duty IN respect 10 the maintenance of the Constitu-
ton Of the United States From your voice, or
your pen, any more than from mine, there has
never proceeded sentiment hostile to ''that UNITY
of government which constitutes us one people,"
And now, when we are no longer young, a state
oil things has arisen seriously nterrupting the har
mony and mutual goodwill which have hitherto
existed between different parts of the country,
citing violent local animosities impeding the reg
ular and ordinary progress of the government, and
iraught with mschiefs Of every description. And
all ibis has its origin in certain branches of the
slavery question, which, as it appears TO me, are
either quite unimportant in Themselves, or clearly
settled and determined by the Constitution.
All this have with that keen regret which
you have experienced yourself, and which cannot
but be a common feeling with all rejecting men,
who are lovers of their country.
To this unhappy state Of the public mind have
felt It my duty 10 address myself, not in language
of irritation, elimination or menace, but in words
Of peace, patriotic sympathy, and fraterna regard.
My effort has been and will DC, TO the full extent OF
my power, 10 the pillows of useless and dan
gerous domestic controversy to sleep, and be still
am as fully aware as other men of what ID to be
expected from such attempts. In highly excited
times II IL far easier TO fan and feed the flames OF
passion and discord than TO subdue them; and in
such times he who counsels moderation is in dan
ger Of being regarded as failing in his duty to
party.
These consequences willingly meet. these dan
gers encounter without hestation; being resolved
to throw myself, with whatever weight may be-
long TO me, unrescrvedly, into the scale of UNIoN.
Where Washington led am willing TO follow, at a
vast distance indeed, and with unequal, but no
faltering steps
The speech which you commend much above
ts merits submit 20 the political party to which
belong, and TO the wise and patriotic men Of all
parties, in the generation in which | live; and
cheerfuIly leave It, with the principles and sent-
meuts which it avows, 10 the judgment Of posterty,
If may flattor myself that any thing spoken or
written by me will be remembered long enough TO
come before that impartial and august tribunal.
am, with great regard, your obedient servant,
DANIEL WEBSTER.

good deal OF bitterness, that their postal commu-
