To f. p. BLAIR, esq.
MIR. Clemens,

We find letter from Mr. CLEMENS in the
Montgomery (Ala.,) Advertiser and Gazette re.
sponsive to the charge made against him by Mr.
RHETT, in the close of his recent speech. That
the whole subject may be better understood,
we insert the part of Mr.. RHETrs speech rela,
ing to that subject, and Mr.. CLEMENS letter in
full.
Mr.. President, am exhausted ard presume
that the Senate must be fatigued from the
length of time have tiled its patience. have
here before me many other points in which the
Inconsistencies of Senator from Alabama are
exposed, and which promised to expose
must leave them to be read and compared, as
they are contained in his last speech His in
constituencies with respect to the dismember-
ment of Texas--his beautiful picture of the
blessings of the Union-and his tragic delnea-
tons Of the horrors of dsunion, must leave
unquoted. | turn in conclusion, to public
matter which has lately come TO light in Ala.
bama. 1t has been in the public prints for many
weeks, and have not seen it contradictcd.
take it to be true. 1t may go far to explain The
Inconsistencies of the Senator from Alabama.
1t is well known that when that Senator was
elected to his seat in this body, he was elected
by the Wings. The Democratic party, by an
overwhelming vote, learn, nominated his CON-
petitor, Mr. Fitzpatrick, TO be their candidate for
the Senate. The Democratic party had ma
joriy in the legislature; but few of the gen.
tleman's friends, in combination with the Wings,
elected him to his present place. ! hold in my
hand the statement Of Judge Buford. You know
the man, Mr.. President; and more honorable
and truthful man does not live within the con.
fines of Alabama or the South. ! know him
also, sir ; and suppose his veraeity and honor
would not suffer in comparison with that ofany
man on this floor. Here is statement he has
placed before the world. He was n Senator at
the time in the Alabama Legislature:
"On the night before the final balloting by
the legislature for United States Senator,
caucus of the Wing members was held, ut which
it was announced that Mr.. Clemens had YER
bally pledged himself, if elected, to support the
administration of General Taylor Objections
were made by members Of the caucus TO receiv-
ing verbal pledge, and it WAS insisted that it
should be reduced to writing. Accordingly,
soon after, a small strip, containing written
pledge, was brought in the caucus by Mr. Rip
Davis, OF Limestone. 1t was nearly or exactly
in these words:
'lf elected TO the United States Senate, !
promise TO support the administration of Gen.
Taylor. JgRr. CLEMENS
at was further stated by Major Bnford that
be had seen the written pledge, and that twas |
re presented and believed to be Mr. Clemens |
handwriting"
Another Wing member Of the Alabama egis.
lature who was in the caucus, comes out with
statement confirming that of Mr.. Buford Here
is what he says

DEAR SIR: | enclose you the proceedings of
the Democratic convention, held at Frankfort on
the 9Th instant, which it was my intention to
have done 80 soon as received THIN, but was
prevented by the freezing up of the Ohio which
destroyed all Of our mail facilities for near three
weeks. The resolutions speak for themselves
and it is only necessary for me to say, that they
were submitted to me before they were acted
upon by the convention, and met my entire ap.
probation. What effect they are likely to have
upon myself politically, did not pause to in.
quire. 1t is sufficient for me that they are in
strict accordance with my own opinions-opn
ions not Of a day nor lightly entertained, and
therefore not likely to be changed nor aban-
doned. Opinions, too, in which the American
people feel deep interest, and therefore proper
to he made known. 10 the proceedings of this
convention there is nothing new, not in the
slightest degree at war with that spirit of concil-
iation which seems likely to pervade every sec

@ We are becoming very uneasy aoou
the editor of the Washington Union, and are
afraid we shall have to read him out OF the party
The evidence of coalition between the Union
and Republic is thickening upon us. The re-
public has been taunting the Democratic party
lately about its divisions, and the Union has beer
complaining of the same thing. The Republic
defes the Democratic delegation to unite il
any one meas ure The Union has been very
anxious for it to unite in one measure, viz: thu
resolution giving it the census job. And if boil
are interested in secret contract to divide thu
profits, what artifce is deeper than for the one
to insist on its passage, and the other to deride
the party for not passing IL
There are other symptoms. The Union is
now suspected of having its favorite candidate
for the Presidency. Is it part of the game fol
the Republic to expose the weak points in the
history of other prominent candidates, IS was
done yesterday! We can tell Congress that
many fat job has been obtained of the two
Houses for both the organs, by coalition OF
the favored friends of each, when the majority
party proper could not quite take the response
bility II must have been seen that both these
organs have lately been blowing together very
tremendously for the fnaity of the Compromise.

ing anything incompatible with the public service
for it to tell us whether it goes for the fnalily
with the disruptive proviso of the Georgia plat
form? Or, is the Southern Democracy required
to climb down under that platform-after hav-
ing climbed 30 high above it?
DR.. FITcH has introduced firality resolution
in the House, without any descriptive proviso--
or any other provsos The intention of DR..
FITcH is no doubt good, but will he tell us what
is to be done in case the fnalty should not be
fnals Will he 60 for secesso or disruption,
or for another Compromise
We have seen with an establishment which
even the past infatuaton of the South could not
avert, that there are Southern men actually as
suming the Compromise as Southern position !!
Let the South do that, and the next thing we
shall hear is, that the finaty Of the Compromise
is Southern ultraism. 1t will be called dis
union dogma, which will require thirteen more
political doctors to refute, and another Union
party to put down.

The Journal Of Commerce has an interesting
article on the imports of dry goods, which leads
TO the following conclusion:
1t will be seen that the total falling off in
the value of foreign goods received at this port
since the first Of January, as compared with the
same period of last year, is So 1913 9S4 and that
this amount has been taken with surprising uni
formity from the various fabrics represented by
the totals in our summary. The quantity thrown
upon the market since January lst, is only
S2,892,l3l behind the total for the similar pc
Rod of last year, the stock left in warehous'
being drawn down much closer There is now
but little doubt but what the total foreign i'm
ports (iEcluding all the general merchandise) a
this port since the opening of the year, will ex
hibit decline from last year of six millions o
dollars"
