Henry Clay on the s.IrrsPrcssibie
COnfltct.S
Mr.. Seward, Abe Lincoln and othsr Re-
publicans have been denounced - agitasors
and trsitors for tho snuneiation Of the ssnsi-
msnt that there il an s'irrsprsssibls conflict
between freedom and slavery. And Il i the
constant effort Of Douglas and the dough
face democracy to repress oil expressions in
faver Of universal liberty and to degrade
and deadsn the sensibilities Of the people Of
the North till they shall look upon slavery

tion Of . large portion Of their fellow men.
Henry Clay in . speech before the Coloniza-
ton Society alludes to the 'irreprsssibls
conflict" and tells these doughfacss, by way

slaves, to weaken their obligations OF obedi-
ence. Ii seeks to affect no mans property.
1t neither has the power nor the will to ahect
| the property OF any one, contrary to his con-
sent. The execution OF its scheme would
augment, instead OF diminishing, the value
OF the property left behind. The society,
composed OF free men, concerns itself only
with the free. Collateral consequences, We

they would repress oil tendencies towards
Liberty and ultimate emancipation, they must
do more than put down the benevolent ef-
forts Of this society. They must 60 back to
the era Of our Liberty and Independence, and
