B Cossius M, Clay published an appeal to
the people OF Madison county against the
Revolutionary Committee Of that county,
from whomShe escaped announcement by a
small majority, last Tuesday, and who were
to consider his case again yesterday. He
says he advised Hsnsan and bis associates
to leave, that he has discounteuanced the
radicals. but If the Republicans are attacked
they will defend themsel YES. His appeal
embraces a letter signed BY Frank Bland
and George Haley, in which they say the
troubles did not originate about Hanson. but
bscsuse George West, who was sick with
consumption, was maltreated, and VESTS
daughter insulted with gross language.
Mr. Clay concludes: You may be strong

weeks since Senator Iverson denounced the
whole race Of Northern Democrats, and

a mean, despicable set Of staryelings, I'M
able to see beyond a dollar, and caring for
no confederation except money. Threaten
them, and they will crouch TO your feet like
so manr hounds. Only swear that you ure
going 70 dissolve the Union. and The limid
creatures will get down on all fours, bite
