Randolph and Clay.

The Atlanta Atezigencer says that
what led to the duel between Mr.. Ran
dolph and Mr.. Clay was the charge by the
former that the election Of Mr.. Adams to
the Presidency, through the treachery of
Mr.. Clay, was combination between
the puritan and the backlog" Now,
J. A. Peasants, in the Richmond Wing,
shortly after the duel, gave the following
as the offensive words which produced the
call from Mr.. G. upon Mr.. R., and stated
that they were uttered in secret session,
viz:
This mankind, I crave your
pardon-this worn-httle animals. forgive
the insnlt-was spit out of the womb Of
meanncss, was raised to higher life than
he was born to,-for be was raised to the
society Of blackguards. Some fortune,
kind to him, cruel to US, has tossed him
to the Secretaryship Of State.
Contempt has the property Of descend
ing, bat she stops far short Of him. She
would die before she could reach him.
He dwells below her fall
Il would hate him, if did not despise
him. It is not sehat he is, but arAere he
is that puts my thoughts in action. That
ALPHABET which writes the names Of
fHers5tes, Of B5achg'saye7s, Of Squa1jd;ty,
refuses her letters fer him.
"That mind which thinks on what it
cannot express, can scarcely think of him
An hgperqole for qseanalsss would be an
eNiipsss for C5cy." T.
The PRESIDENT IN IMMINENr PERIL
The Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore Ga9ette writes: siIf the action
Of this committee, whatever it may be, is
to be at all respected by the President,
then, indeed, Is lie IN ia,anaiaent peril It
is only necessary to glance at its compost
tioD to be convinced that it is Of the most
virulent element to be found in the House,
and possesses, in high degree, the cum
ming and talent for minute inquiry and
reckless twisting and turning necessary in
such business. Wilson, of Iowa, Bout
well, Of Massachusetts, Francis Thomas,
of Maryland, and " illiams, of Pennsylvan-

Restless Symptoms,

Throughout the entire South, both with
whites and black, there are widespread
and unmistakable evidences Of discomfort.
The feeling to which we allude is not so
much in reference to political question, says
the Richmond Times, though these may
hayestimulated ndkeptit alive; the South
feels no interest in, or excitment about
politics But the discomfort, to which we
have adverted, arises out Of the change in
the social and domestic relations Of our
people, consequent upon the Volcanic up
heayals Of the war, and the subsequent
continuance Of revolutionary disturbances.
Plunged suddenly into poverty, and COM
PEELED to grapple unexpectedly with hard
ship; unable to command labor for agricul-
tural purposes, CT capital for commercial
enterprises, it is notstrange that the whites
are restless and aetuated by a desire to
leave the scenes of blighted prosperity and
happiness, to seek success and fortune on
fields that shall not perpetually remind
them Of the calamities Of the past.
1t is nothing new for poverty, distress
and misfortune to enforce a change Of
locality, as cure for bruised hearts and
broken hopes and the desire Of multi
tudes Of the Southern people to emigrate to
some other section, indictes a belief that
some change would be an improvement,
no matter to what quarter the wanderer
may direct his step. As we have intima-
ted, this feeling is not confined to the
whites. The black participate in it to an
equal, if not a greater extent. They are
moving towards Texas. towards the Mis-
sissippi Valley, Florida, and even towards
the bleak and inhospitable North. In
their case, the discomfort and the desire
for change has been SO marked, and SO
pregnant with future ruin, that even their
great prophet, General Howard, has been
Attempting to dissuade them from leaving,
by speeches delivered at various points,
characterized by no very great ability.
The exodus OF the blacks furnishes no
sufficient reason for the whites to follow
their example; but, on the contrary, sup
plies the latter with many very sound ar
guments for remaining where they are.
How can we expect to do better elsewhere
than here, particularly. after the depar-
ture Of the negroes shall have invited an
influx Of white immigrants ? That man
is little less than asimpleton who becomes
"rolling stone" at this juncture. 49,.
