NOTE FROM GEN. cAssTUs NJ. CLAY.
WASHINGTON, D. G. /
Fridav- Feb. % 1863.


To the Editor of the N. Y. Times:
In the Times of yesterday you have
an article styled "Russia Made Hap
w." to which l desire to say but a
word in reply, l have nothing to say
about the spirit of that editorial to-
ward met is the same, with all the
rest you have written in reference to
me, while at home and abroad. ] do
not hold myself above just Or even un-
friendly criticism, as public servant.
In that | shall endeavor to defend my
self by my life-acts, not by Words
But when you venture the insinuation
that Il she can serve the Government
consistently with his private senti-
ments only in foreign mission, you
misrepresent my sentiments" and
injure the cause of the country. l
told President Lincoln that | could not
and would not enter the field, except
the policy was adopted of liberating
the slaves of rebels. So soon as the
President issued his Proclamation of
the 22d September, offered my ser
vices at once to Gen. Halleck. l was
received in such manner, that Secre>
tary Chase, who was present, and who
had urged me to take command by
the most pressing arguments, was sat
iSfed as well as myself, that ! could
not serve the country or my own rep
utation by entering the service. JUS
tice to the country and my own char
acte' for frankness demand of me to
say, that regard Gen. Halleck as too
intensely Pro~Slavery to do justice to
any man of my views of the great po-
itical issues pending. I have done
what | could, and / shall do what can,
to induce the President TO pat Gen.
Benz. F. Butler in his place. | believe
that such change would save The Re-
public millions of men and money. -
Nothing short of that can give the
vigor and effect to our arms which the
crisis and the public sentiment demand.
How far "Russia will be made hap
py," will appear when yeur friend W.
IL. Seward shall place more Of my
correspondence and less of his own
before the public.
I am your obedient servant,
c.. NJ. CLAY.

Cassius m: Clay ahS the New
York Times.

When it was announced that Gen.
c. NJ. Clay, who did not go to war, al
though he sought and obtained COM
mission, was to return to Russia, the
New York Times had some comments
in relation to the matter which appear
to have given umbrage to Mr.. Clay,
and thereupon he writes a note to the
Times, which we append below. From
its tone it will be seen that this Aboli-
ton fanatic feels himself strong with
the President-even SC strong that he
can without fear snub the Secretary
of State, in a most discorteoNs aud
disrespectful manner. Here IS the
note:

This letter OF Mr. Rannsy is dated the
18th of July. In it he says: "Your tele,
graph Of yesterday has jest been forwarded
TO me at tnls place" Your telegraph then
was dated the IA Of July, ard you say,
"On the same day, you asked the Secretary
OF War to remove me gently out Of the way"
On the l4lh OF July. then, your Excelency
procured the order or my arrest.
1t is very strange that, with all the stats
teal information IN your possession you could
have possibly desired, your Excellency should
have involved yourself in such gross IN
consistencies; or you then remarked that
you "waS advised that DR.. ODDS was dis
couraging enlls,ments, and threatened that
any atteuip. draft in his county would be
resisted " You represent this discouragtng
enlstments and resisting the draft to be the
crime or offence ior which | was gently re
moved out of the way. ..
Now. your ExceIlency must know that
either the one or the other OF these sta g.
ments must be untrue. For, at the time
when you invited Mr.. Ranney ITO take the
stump for the war and Volunteers" to wit:
on the 14h OF July had made no speeches
in which l had made slusion TO either en-
listing or drafting, for the very best reason
in the world, viz: that, between the "a OF
July and the rs h Of the same month, had
made no political speeches of any kind
During the latter part oI Jlne had spoken
at County Convention in my own county
end also at County Convention in Picka-
way. These Conventions were called for
the purpose ofe'ecing delegates to the Dem,
- n ia IN
held in Columbus on the 4th of July | had
also spoken at the indignation meeting held
In Clrclevllle on the I'd of July, over the
arrest OF John W. KEGS. At the tine OF
holding these meetings, no order for draft
was in existence; and. It rightly remember,
the order for the FIRST 100000 of the 6OOOOO
volunteers called tor, was dated in Washing
ton City, on the 81 of Jnly and promulgated
10 the people oi Ohio in Order No. 20 OF the
Adjutant General o. Ohio, on the 9sh OF
July. Consequently. your Excellency will
perceive that could not, in the speeches
made in une, and even In the one | made
on the I'D OF July, at the kees Indignation
Meeting. have discouraged volunteering, as
at that time there was no order in existence
calling for such volunteers. Nett her could
have known that draa would take place,
az the call Tor the second 6OO,QO0 soldiers,
upon which the draft was ordered was not
issued in Washington City until the Eth oil
August, and the draft not ordered until the
ll,h Of August. Consequently, on the 14th
Of July. when you order d my arrest, could
no. have threatened resistance to q draft
not 10 existence or nearly a month after that
time ha
Perhaps, II your Excellency will refresh
your memory, you will discover thst you
