last sleep Of death" Our heart bleeds as We
announce the melancholy intelligence Mr.. Clark
was a lawyer of learning and distinction. Fol
several years he represented the "Chemung dis
trict" of New York in the House of Represents
tives of the United States; and at the time of his
demise he was the Solicitor of the United States
Treasury. Whilst on visit to his residence il
Chemung county, New York, he was suddenly
attacked by disease which speedily terminated
his valuable life.
Our deceased friend had troops Of admirers
and friends in this city, all of whom will be
greatly shocked at receiving this affecting intel
lgence He was a man of enlarged powers Of

soul Hearts will bleed and tears freely flow,

The most powerful argument Of the Washing
ton Union at this moment, and that upon which
ii harps with the ksenest relish, is the editors
hope that sufficient honors will not be paid by
the Wings to the illustrious subject of long years
|of SANDER and vituperation by the conductors of
THAT Billngsgate chronicle. Mr., Webster is not
yet in his grave, but the Union, with the sharp
scent Of the jaokall snuffs at the fresh turf in
the hope of sating its unnatural and ferocious
appetite. Neither sentiment Of respect for him
at whom its barbed and malignant shafts have so
Hong been hurled in vain nor consciousness of
shame for its outrage upon all the dictates of
|propriety and decency, can restrain that Shiny
plodder in the turbid and fetid sinks of low par
|tisanship and scurrility. The Union and it'll
|eght regular and countless irregular editors
have now, we hope, attained to climax in their
frantic efforts to Willy the Wing party and ts|
distinguished leaders Daniel Webster has fer|
many years been honored by the Wings of thisI
republic he has long been defended by them
from the envious and INSCRIPTIONS assaults of
the Union and its unprincipled compeers; he has
long shared, through good and evil report, the|
VI thae party Ho sheuOS nho nio vAcceI
flor who has them not p have long been we'll
known to that party. Living, he was ever hon
|ored by it; dying, he is regretted and through
|all future time his name and his fame will bel
linked and associated with it; and when the|
greatest intellect of our country in this era shall
|be spoken Of, his adherence to Wing principles
Twill be the boast of that party. If an hour has
ever existed in which transient alienation oil
sympathy has arisen, it will be but as mote in the
sunbeam to intercept the glory Of that shining
orb. That he did not live Wing, and that his
death is not lamented by the Wing party as al
grevous bereavement, are tales told by an en-
venomed, bitter, aud RUTHLESS foe, who would
have 'blighted his happiness while living, and
who, vulture-like, would even now gladly gloat|
over his remains when dead. A spectacle more|
disgusting than is thus exhibited by the conduc-
tors Of that paper, in seeking cause of quarrel
over the bier of the departed orator. patriot, and|
sage, can nowhere else be found. A cause must
be desperate that requires such agents and
such means for its advancement.

WINFIELD Scott.

Even Loco10c0 vltuperatlOn dared not assam
the fame Of this noble old patriot in the hour of
political quiet; and were he to be withdrawn
from the field of political competition, the first to
trumpet his praises would be the mercenary
throng by whom he is now assailed. In 1885,
Mr.. Thomas Richie pronounced the following
tribute in the Richmond Enquirer:
'sThere is SO much of noble generosity Of char
|acter about Scott independent of his skill and
bravery soldier that his life has really been
lone of romantic beauty and interest You re-
collect his conduct when on his way to take COM
mand of the army engaged in the Black Hawk
war. The corps he had with him were all strick
len down with the cholera, before he Joined Gen
Atkinson. What was his conduct? Did he
leave them to their fate, and fly to the army OF
THE gallant and accomplished Atkinson, bis
warm personal friend in order that he might
Snatch from him the laurels for which he had
|toiled SO long, and which he was just then on the
|poiat of winning? No! he chung to his sick SOL

|pestlence, and exerted himself day and night

hazard of his life. He could have taken COM
|mand of the army-it was his right But be-
hold his magnanimity In this scene of General
SCOTS life, he shines more brilliantly, in my es-
|timation, than in the most glorious battle he
