of that interesting period which will in few years be
lost unless some familiar with the facts will record
them. Judge Thomas is now the oldest living member
Of Congress from the country wes of the moantans-
all the others of that noble band who with and
preceded him have passed away. May beg of him
through you give to the public st large such facts
concerning that Compromise have not yet been pub
Rshed interesting know them TO be, and there Is no
man now living so familiar with them as he Is.
Judge Thomas has for many years been the intimate
friend Of Hon Elishs whittlcsey who Is his ardent adj

request that he would write history OF the Great
West fear that his present advanced age and rather
feeble health may prevent that IT. however this could

pie should have paid little attention to the many
good things that you and and all Of US have said dur
ing the campaign,-and that 1,oooOOO copies Of the
Life Of Scott should have had other effect than to
give Pierce % States out Of 3d. Nevertheless may
ms well take 1t quietly socrates drank his henock
It vexed me considerably at fret, but wh2n found
there was not a single plank left, and that chance
existed for the reformation Of the Wing party, was
consoled

Wing great men at one time and ridden over by them
ut another and is quite comfort 10 10 think
chat we are nd Of them Five years since made up
my mind that next to electing good Wing President
who could be depended upon the best thing would
he that the party should be annhiIated. And now,
though have failed in my first wish, am sure oil my
second.

Mr.. Clay.
To the Editor Of The y. Y. Tribune:

Rev. Theodore Parker, in sermon preached
at the Melodeon in Boston Oct 81 1882 and called the
Life Of Webster takes occasion 20 misrepresent Mr.
Clay in two important particulars First he says:
"Mr. Clay was certainya great man. wise and subtle
and far lighted ! with thought he was az honest n
Calhoun could be persuaded that he was a. generous
as Webster but in 1853 Mr. Clay could not vote for the
Force bill which Mr. Webster had proudly defended
against the South Csroinisn idea Mr.. Clay would not
vote against -he avoided the question the air of the
Senate bad he could not stay.
Now the facts are directly the Of this. 1t
az well known as any other important fact connected
win the history Of Mr.. Clays Life. that he volunteered
10 have bis name recorded in the affirmative that
very Force bill" We well remember, the very
day when the question taken in the Senate, Of ask
Ing Mr. Clay why he volunteered to offend many Of
his Southern friends by taking the course he did
that being temporarily absent from the Senate Cham
Der at the moment the question was taken he was po
ltically sbsoyed not justified, by his absence He
said Was it right that such bill should pas be-
cause if So you have all the that be given"
In speaking Of Mr. Websters opposition to the annex
alton of Texas, he says:
"He objected 70 the annexation chiefly because
Slave State Here he stood with Adams; but against
him Calhoun Clay and almost oil the Dcmocrats.'
Here again the facts the Of what the Rev.
gentleman ftaes Mr.. Clays remarkable letter written
from Raleigh, 0he date do not recoect) on this as
well other matters, contradcts most emphatcally
tina, he was In favor of the exaOn of Texas. lie
pointed out with the precision of prophet the cone
ouences that did ensue and which will be felt for ages
vet to cone disastrous effects Of that extraor
binary transaction.
We deem this contradiction Of the statements made
by Mr. Parker highly important because, unless timely
noticed they may creep into history to the injury OF
Mr. Clays whole consistent and eventful life
~ There are many more mistakes of fact
in Mr.. Parker's Sermon, but our readers have
generally corrected them as they read. We
do not read Sermons for Political History but
for Ethical Criticism and Moral Reflection
