dence. Even Prudence will soon be required
to decide whether distant regions East and
West, shall come under our own protection, or
be left to aggrandize rapidly-spreading do
main of Despotism.
Sir, who among us is equal to these mighty
questions? ! fear there is no one. Neverthe-
less, the example Of HENRY CLAY remains for
our instruction. His genius has passed to the
realms of light, but his virtues still live here for
our emulation. With them there will remain
also the protection and favor of the Most High
if by the practice of Justice and the maintenance
of freedom we shall deserve it Let then the
bier pass on. We will follow with sorrow,
but not without hope, the reverend form that
it bears to its final resting-place; and then,
when that grave opens at our feet to receive
so inestimable treasure, we will invoke the
God of our fathers to send us new guides, like
him that is now withdrawn, and give us wis

HENRY CLAY.

The slow knell Is tolling-a nation In tears
Puts ON the dark mantle OF sorrow again,
Andlaments as she ne'er has lamented for years,
Her brightest Of sages, her noblest OF men.
So strong were the ties OF affection that bound him
To hearts that forever must weep him below;
so firm was the rampant of friendship around him,
That Death seemed to falter in giving the blow.
Bt AZ last he has left usthe stroke has descended
And hope with Its are-broken vigil is Ger;
Weak nature has yielded, the struggle is ended,
And alas the old patriarch Clay Is no more
Weep weep, oh my country, in anguish bereft
OF the child of thy heart let thy grief have Its way
For though many and true the souls that left
My country, my country, thou had'st but one Clay,
When with its woes and its horrors assailed thee,
When defeat and dshonor seemed Joined to the train
When the bodet and stoutest hearts failed thee
Twas his to enkinde thy courage again
When nation in battle proudly contending
To be free-when alone it had stricken the blow,
He shouted the triumph Of Liberty, sending
New strength to Its friend and dsmay to its foe!
Though others might call up the storm on the ocean,
Twas his to command the dark tempest to cease;
Though others might set the fierce wargod in motion,
Twas his to set smiling the daughter Of peacel
But mute is that voice, and extinguished forever
The brightness the magic which lived in that eye;
He has dropped he has sunk he has allen yet never
Can his fame, can his deeds, can his memory die

The sad Tidings Abroad.

Throughout the length and breadth of our land
the mournful intelligence of the death of Mr..
CLAY has been received with every mark and
token of the deepest sorrow.
A despatch from Lexington, Kentucky, says :
The sad tidings Of the death of Henry Clay has
reached here by telegraph. 1t caused a deep
gloom Business was suspended, the bells tolled,
and flags were suspended at half-mast. Minute
guns are firing.
The solemn and bereaving intelligence was con
yeyed to his wife at Ashland, where she remains
in very delicate health. Her grief is said to be
deep and painful, though the melancholy tidings
broke upon her not unexpected She was an
ticipating his death hourly. The domestics and
all of the family are in deep lamentations.
"Ashland" gives sad evidence that its illustrious
owner has gone to the home of his fathers.
The melancholy intelligence has been conveyed

and hamlet in the West; and emblems of sorrow
and respect for the illustrious dead are every
where exhibited. Deep mourning and sadness

GEoRaETowN, July liz m
In every direction to which the eye turns, this
morning, badges of mourning as tokens OF re-
gard for the memory of the illustrious and time
honored patriot Henry Clay, who now sleeps in
the embrace of death, may be seen. Nearly
every place of business, every omnibus in the
Union line, together with many private dwellings,
are shrouded in the habiments of mourning,
and sorrow may be depicted in the countenances
of old and young at our country's irreparable
loss, The flags of all the shipping in our har-
bor Of our fire companies, &C., are at half-mast;
and the bell of the Vigilant Fire Company has
been toed at intervals ever since it was first an
nounced that the great Henry Clay was no more.
Mr., Clay has for many years been the idol of
that portion of our citizens who belong to the
same political party that he did and we have no
doubt that, could the prayers of thousands of
them have been answered, Henry Clay would
have been immortal on earth

night, the following preamble and resolutions
were unanimously passed:

which we represent, deplore in common with our

filed the largest term of time usually allotted to
humanity, and had so employed his talents for
his countrys good, to have received before his
death, by accamation Of his countrymen, the
| glorious title of National Benefactor; that he
had lived down all political animosity, and that
he died with firm belief and abiding trust in

honors rejoicing in the prosperity of the country
he loved so well and had labored so faithfully to
ennoble.
