Henry clay AN Agitator.

As early as 1897 Henry Clay said in a
public speech in Washington City in
reference to slavery:
"If / could be instrumental in eradi-
eating this deepest stain upon the charac-
ter Of our country, and removing all cause
of reproach on account Of it by foreign
nations--if | could only be instrumental
in Kidding of this blot that revered State
that gave me birth, or that no less beloved
State which has kindly adopted me a. her
son, ,oo,.ld not exchange the proud salts
faction sohich should enjoy for hehono,,
Of alt Iic triumphs eper decreed to the mos.
saccessJut eonqueror."
And in response to those who found
fault with the efforts of the Colonization
Society in favor Of emancipation he said !:
"What would they, who thus reproach
us, have done ? If they would repress all
tendencies toward liberty and ultimate
emancipation, they mus: do more than
put down the benevolent efforts Of this
Society, They must go back to the era
of our liberty and independence, and
huzzie tho cannon which thunders its
annual joyous return. They must revive
the slave trade, with all its train of afro
cities. They must suppress the workings
Of British philanthropy, seeking TO NELL
crate the condition OF the unfortunate
West Indian slaves. They must arres,
the career of SouthAmericsn delivsrance
from thralcom. They must blow out the
lights around us and extinguish tina
greatest torch Of all, which America pres
cnts to benighted wofld-pointing th,
way to their rights, their liberties, ant
, their happiness.
4 1And when they have achieved al
: these purposes, their work will be yet in
complete. They must penetrate tn,
!. human soul, and eradicate the light o
b reason and the love of liberty. Then
d and not till then, when universal darkness
and despair prevail, can you perpetuate
slavery, and repress all sy mpathies and al
humane and benevolent effortsamong free
men in behalf Of the unhappy portion o
our race doomed to bondage''

pJ- Some weeks ago we quoted from
Mahony's Herald his advice to President
Lincoln to acknowledge the independence
Of the Southern Confederacy without de.
lay, before hostilities had embittered the
South and rendered it impracticable for
US to make advantageous commercial
treaties with them. Clagett devoted a
column and half in denial Of this, in
defence and culoey Of Mahony and in
abuse of us.
We now quote this little paragraph from
Mahony's Herald, and ask our readers to
mark il:
The TAX BILL.--We have printed the
tax bill in pamphlet form, and viii send
single copies to persons ON receipt Of .
three cent stamp, or fifty for one dollar
We think il will turn out to be prett,
good campaign document.
Mahony has published the tax IA
through which alone the war can be sup
ported and the troops be kept 10 the field
as an electioneering document for ii.
campaign.
Even the Vallandighammes had not
the temerity to vote against this tax bill,
but now that it has passed, and by nm al
most unanimous vote, Mahoay proposes
to denounce it as an abolition war meas.
ure, and 10 rally the Jonesocracy agains,
the Administration and the Government,
on account Of tho burdensome war tar.

Any Que who reads secession Demo

the expressions used by them against sy-

sThe North will be flooded with free ne-
groes i "they win corrpete with and
starre out the white laLorer5.' ssthey will
swarm oil over the country" and much
other clap-trap Of similar chsrachr.-
Facts, however, like the following, en-
dorsed by the Washington Star, paper
that did It's utmost to prevent the passage
of the emancipation act in the District Of
Columbia, are sufficient answer 70 the
silly clamor Of political moua,ebsnks who
attempt to procure party success by fos-
