CLAY AND WEBsTER.-These two statesmen
and patriots have spoken, and their voices have
penetrated every neighborhood and hamlet in
the whole land When disappointed ambition
and political hydrophobia were wrangling in
the councils of the nation, Clay and Webster,
calm as summer morning, firm as the pillars
of mountain, inspired by holy patriotism, en-
dowed with the spirit of Washington, met
their country's foes and have triumphed.-They
have uttered the thoughts, feelings and wishes
Of the people of the whole country--throwing
aside all sectional prejudices, they have spoken
for all who breathe American air and claim a
home on American soil. Stunning all ultra
grounds, they have taken the constitution, JUS
tice and reason for their guides, and, regard
less alike Of the spleen Of northern fanatics
or southern madmen, they have boldly and
nobly spoken the honest sentiments Of the
heart. While we have patriots and statesmen
like Clay and Webs ter to plead for our coun-
try, demagogues and rnadmen will in vain de-
mand a dissolution Of the Union. The Amer
lean people will place upon all such move
ments the seal Of their unqualified condem-
nation Banner, o. 8. 81 r.

better college to many poor boy-has glad
uated more useful and CONSPICUOUS members of
society-has matured more intellee, and turn

more mind, generated more active and elevated
thought than any literary college Of the country
How many a drone has possed through these
colleges, with no tangible proof of his fitness,
other than his 'inanimate piece of parchment
himself more inanimate than his leathern di-

FoRTuNE SLIPPING THROUGH THE FINGERS.
A letter received in Salem, gives an account Of
an accident which must have occasioned se-
we're disappointment to the subject OF It. A
digger who had brought from the mines twen-
ty-five pounds Of gold, carried it in a tin pail
to the vessel on which he had taken passage
for home. By some mis-step, or other mis-,
chance, most unluckily itsipped from his hand
over the ships side, and went to the bottom,
in forty feet Of water, leaving the poor digger
minus his fortune Salem GGzette.

EDITORIAL SQUABBLE.-A violent newspa-

temporary justly remarks: "These chickering's
let them terminate as they may-are deeply to
be regretted. They njure the influence of the
press, and destroy its dignity. When will the
public and the conductors of the press learn to
consider newspaper as an impersonality to
look only to its opinions, and not to the indivi-
duals who edit it?
