The democrats, among whom is James B.
Clay, son Of Henry Clay, are opposed to such
a measure. For this reason, we suppose,
some of the pro-slavery men conCocted a dir
ty little story about Mr.. Clay, representing
that he sold the timber off his fathers farm
at enormous prices 10 people who wanted 10

helps to circulate the false story, and de-
nounCes Mr.. Clay as traitor to his father
Thus, it will be seen, the stories that are
raised to injure democrats by the slavery
extensiOnists Of the South, are used by the
aboltionists at the north for the same pur.
pose 1t will be further observed that the
Journal claims that Henry Clay, if alive
would be in favor of passing slave code for
the territories, as it calls his son traitor for
opposing the slave-code doctrine! This is
fair inference, and leaves the Journal in
a rather awkward predicament. 1t pretendS
to revere the memory of Henry Clay, and

the Compromises Of 1850, which his faith

them, and the Journal has taken its stand
with the abolitioniSts, but can go over to the
slavery extensionists if it desires. Is is hard
to tell which of the two is worse.

THE AEnnialicn

The Trbune's London correspondent says:
now again maintain that this truce will
not lead to peace. Napoleon has solemnly
declared that he must continue the war un.
til the independence of Italy is secured from
the Alps to the Adriatic, and | know from
persons who saw him three days before the
truce, that he is still bent upon the complete
execution Of his original plan. Accordingly,
if Austria should even consent to abandon
Lombardy, he will insist upon her withdraw
ing from Venice, and This concession cannot
yet be palpable to Francis Joseph, though he
has been terribly frightened by the Frenc h
occupation OF Lossini and Cuerso, next door
to Fiume and Zeng.
1t is true that the Austrian army is demor.
allied; that the Emperor wept at Novi on &C.
count Of the disastrous retreat, that Hungary
is on the brink of an insurrection, that Bohe.
mia and Tyrol are disaf'ected; still, he can
not make peace unless he should make up
his mind not only to dismiss all his present
Ministers, but to stultify himselfby declaring
that the war in Hungary in lS43-49, and
all his system of government since that time
have been terrible mistake. To make con-
cessions TO The Italians would not now be of
any avail, but would incite all the nations of
the empire to the bodest steps, and would
earn for him the contempt of Germany. The
Austrian army is not yet sufficiently beaten,
and the enthusiasm of the German officers
has not yet cooled down 10 such extent as TO
make the surrender of Venice necessary; and
Napoleon, unless defeated or forced by an
European armed mediation, will not make
peace under conditions excluding the inde-
pendenCe OF Italy beyond the Mincio. Such
being the case, we may safely infer that the
present truce will not lead to any more Sc
rious result than an exchange of prisoners.
The Hungarian battaions at Acqui. in
Piedmont, have been considerably increased
in number by the last battles; there are now
four thousand men under arms, equipped and
officered in the same way as they were in
1919, gathering around the Hungarian flag
Still, it is not probable that they will soon
have an opportunity to take the field. They
are only organizing under the eyes of Kos
suth, who, at the present moment, is at Tu-
rim, after having made trip to Parma and to
VallegiO, where he had interviews with the
Prince and the Emperor Napoleon. The di-
plomatists watch his movements with the
most intense attention, and Lord John Rus
sell has already warned the French Govern
ment not to ally itself with the revoutona.
ry elements, lest Prussia should be forced to
declare war. Prussia, however, has no great
eagerness to invade France.
