HENRY CLAWS REMAINs.-After an inter
ment of twelve years, the remains Of Mr..
Clay were lately removed upon the death of
his wife, and placed side by side with hers
beneath the beautiful monument erected to
his memory in the Lexington Cemetery.
The wreath of immortelles placed upon his
cotfn by his friend, the poetess, Mrs. Ann S.
Stephens, prior to the removal of the body
from Washington, was found to be in an AL
most perfect state of preservation, being but
little faded, whilst a gold ring, bearing the
initials j. w. which rested near the wreath,
was as bright as though just from a jeweler'
store.

A New Race of Masters with no Interest
in the Negro.

The experiment of enforced labor By mas
ters who had no property interest in the Ial
borer OF the inferior races whom they used
was thoroughly tried in the early history of
the American Continent, and found to result
in the determination of the Indian tribes
thus held 10 labor. 1t is now being tried
again, on the negro, with similar results.
The very fact that this Abolition govern
ment finds it necessary to contract, or let the
negro to contractors for enforced labor, is,
in itself, an admission that the race nomin-
ally free, requires in reality master.
A correspondent well says, as to this un-
fortunate race whose destiny is now, unfortu
naeIy, the football of politicians and their
cruel experiments-in the Mississippi region:
"Al sorts of plans are ahoat here to manage
and to profit from these rich placers; but
between the Secretary of the Treasury, there
is nobody here responsible to direct. East
ern men who 90 into the negro planting, are
blutfed off, while Eastern and Western old
stagers on the ground are given the monop,
olies. The profits, it is supposed, will be
very large. There are several schemes ahoat.
One proposes to rent at IS for every four
hundred bales Of cotton, and five cents for
every bushel of corn. Alas! for the poor
negro; he is to be the great sufferer. The
new shareholders will doom him to the same
sort of death and damnation that the fol,
lowers of Cortes doomed the wretched Az.
tees and Mexicans. The negroes doom is
death and degradation. The reports here of
negro deaths and diseases, from the Missis,
sippi region, are terrible. All humanity
seems to have fled.

night, May 10th, at Spottsylvania Court
House, leaving Grant in possession of the
rebel rifle pits in front of Lees intrench-
ments. The battle was not resumed until
Friday, 18Th when Hancock attacked and
captured some 5000 prisoners of Ewe's
corps including several General officers, and
a number of pieces of artillery, stated to
be from twelve to thirty pieces. Heavy
fighting continued throughout the day ret
sult'ng in great advantages to the Federal
General. The dispatches claimed that Lee
was driven from his position and his troops
were retreating to Richmond-but subse.
queut dispatches places that Commander in
strong position on the river Pc, near Spots
ylvana Court House, at or near the scene of
Tuesdays fight. 1t is impossible from the
conflicting dispatches to see that Grant has
gained any important advantage over his
adversary. The fighting has been of the
most bloody and determined character but
indecisve At last accounts the armies were
resting and being reinforced, preparatory to
renewal of the struggle, that may COM
mence at any moment.
Gen. Butleris operating against Beauregard,
at Richmond, and reporting daily successes
Gen. Sige's column has met with a reverse
in the Shenandoah valley, from Breckenridge,
and has fallen back from New Market to
Strasburg.
The forts in Charleston harbor have again
been bombarded by the iron clads but the
result is not given.
Gen. Sherman has driven Joe Johnston
from Dalton and Resaca, in Georgia. AT
the latter place heavy fight occurred
ohermans loss being 8 900 in killed. woun-
ded and missing. The rebel loss is not
known.
1t is stated from Washington that another
call for 30O,0 soldiers will be made i'm.
mediately.
Troops are being forwarded to Grant from
Ohio and the States further East, with all
possible dispatch. Grant expresses his deter-
mlnation to fight on his present line toward
Richmond if it takes all summer.
There is nothing from Gen. Banks army
at Alexandria. Troops ara being collected
to march to his relief. The rebels are re-
ported to have erected heavy batteries on
Red river, below Alexandria, for the purpose
of preventing Admiral Porters fleet from
coming down-and Magruder and Kirby
Smith are reported in strong force.
