FROM WAsHINGToN-Speech Of Mr.. Clay
The Cuba ESpeditioR--1He Galphin Claim
"X," of the Baltimore Sun, writing from WASH
ton under date of the 22d inst says:
"There is no other conversation here than eulo-
CYSTIC comments on Mr.. Clay's speech of yester-
day. Its, by the Oldest Senators, pronounced the
greatest speech ever delivered in the u. s. Senate,
and equal, if not superior, to the magic oratory Of
the same extraordinary man, during the last war
with England, in the House OF Representatives.
There was the same imprisoned eloquence, the
same gushing forth OF high, patriotic sentiments,
and the same irresistible argument in favor of all
that is dear to American hearts Clay probably
never appeared in his life to such advantage. The
occasion seemed to call for such effort the proud
theme of The Union was worthy the man His
words sank deep in to the hearts of his hearers ;
and though the prospects of compromise were
gloomy, indeed, for the last four or five days past
it is clear that public opinion iseoming to the res
cue and that the patriots throughout the land will
yet unite on the platform laid down by the report
OF the committee.
The attempt, on the part of the administration,
to intercept and, in case Of necessity, fight the
hberating expedition, is exciting a perfect fever
here in Washington. where it is asked in
every quarter is the authority to pursue the expe-
dition after it has started This certainly exceeds
the obligation of neutrals. The Island of Cuba
will enter largely into the next presidential canvass
and there is chance that the slavery question
will be left open till that period.
"Ihe indications are that in regard to the Gal
phin matter the report of Messrs. Disney, Manr
and FeatheFston, will be adopted by the House BY
very large majority, probably some fifty OF sixty
The report Of the Richardson Committee will no
go in this week. The subject matter is growing
under the hands of the Committee.
