Prophecies Of Nsr. Clay and Mir
 ~ Calhoun.

~~> Calhoun.
 In lsGS Henry Clay, who led the Whig hosts in the campaign of 1s44, made the following prophecies:
 The agitation of slavery in the free States will,
 1st. Destroy all harmony,
 2d. Lead to division.
 3d. To poverty.
 4th. To war.
 5th. To the cxtermination of the black race,
 Gu. To ultimate despotism.
 Charleston papers republish Cal honu's prediction in 1926, attaching 10 to it much siguiiirance. It isas follows.
 '.'rhc blacks and the proiligate whites th1t might unite with tifem, would be- come the principal recipients of the Federal offices and patronage, and would, in consequence, be raised above the whites of the South in a political and social scale. We would in word change ourcondiiion with them, a deg radiation greater than has yet fallen to the lot of free and enlightened peo- pie, and one from which we ecould not escape, should emancipation take place (which it will if not prevenied) but by fleeing the homes of ourancestors, and abandoning our country to -our former slaves to become the permanent abode of disorder, anarchy, poverty, misery i and wreicbcdness.
