CaSSiuS M. CLAW.

A correspondent of the Cincinnati En-
quirer, writing from Richmond, KY, up.
der date of January I'd, thus speaks of
Cassius NJ. Clay:
Within six miles of this place is the
home of Cassius NJ. Clay. He has devot-
ed his whole life to the extinction of slave
ry, and has labored to that end with fdcl-
ity and single hcartedness that has won
the respect of even his bitterest enemies
He has sacrificed the greatest estate in
America to that end. A single item of
that estate embraced fifty thousand acres
of land on the Cumberland River, now
worth at least hundred dollars an acre.
Another item consisted of at least half the
county of Madison, which ranks fifth in
wealth in Kentucky. He now lives on a
farm of thirty-three hundred acres, which
belongs to his wife and children, and has
not an acre of his own. But he is no
longer Republican. Yesterday he dined
(oa Russian plate and champagne) all the
Democratic leaders of this county, and he
unfolded his views to them. He says that
his party has left him, and has become the
party of degradation. That he once thought
Grant was only fool, but has been con
WINGED that he is knave, and that anoth.
err term of such misrule is national ruin.
Slavery is dead, and there is no longer a
dividing line between him and the Demo
cracy. But while for himself he buries
the tomahawk Internationally, he suggests
the policy of nominating for the Presiden.
cy in 1872 some such man as Chase, or
Gratz Brown, or Charles Francis Adams.
The effect Of Cassius NJ. Clay's example
upon the negro vote of this State will be
incalculable.
