A Touching Epistle.
HENRY CLAY's LETTER TO A GRANDCHILD
ABOUT TO BECOME A NUN.

A special dispatch to the St. Louis
Globe Democrat, from Notre Dame,
Ind, says: The Bishops Memorial
Hall of the University of Notre Dame
has received from Archbishop JAMS
sens, of the Catholic archdiocese Of
New Orleans, the original of a letter
written by Henry Clay to his grand
daughter in 1S49, when she was about
to become a nun. This is the full text
of tho letter:
ASHLAND. Oct. q, 1849.
My Dear Granddaughter: | received
and read attentively your letter of the
10th inst, My p%erusal of it touched
and affected me very greatly, as it did
your grandma. 1t was full of feeling
and sentiments S. just, conceived in
such a true Christian spirit, and
marked by such affectionate attach
ment to us and to all your relations.
that we read it with the deepest inter-
est. Whilst we could not disapprove,
we were seriously and sorrowfully CON
cerned by your resolution to adopt tho
veil and devote the rest of your life to
the service of God in a convent. We
would not disapprove it, because ysu
say that your determination has been
deliberately formed, and because you
are solemnly convinced that it will be
conductive to your present and future
happiness. But it is a grave and seri-
Gus step, resembling, in the separa-
ton from your friends and relations
which it involves, so much the awful
separation which death itself brings
about, that we could not but feel in
tense distress.
Your happiness, my dear grand
child, las ever been an object of in
tense anxiety and solicitnde with us.
If it is to be promoted by the execu-
ton OF the purpose you have in view,
| would not, if could, dlssuade you
from it. Ihave no prejudice against
the Catholic religion. On the contrary,
l sincerely believe that Catholics, who
are truly religious, are as sure of eter-
happiness in another world as the
most pious Protestants. All that |
hope is that you will not act on a sud-
den impulse or ill-considered and i'm
mature resolution. but that you will
and again and again ex-
anime your own heart and consult your
best Judgment before you consummate
your intention. Write me at WASH
lngton, and in the event of your TAX
ING the veil let me know what provi-
sion exists for your support and COM
fort, and whether any and what.pecuni-
lry aid may be proper or expedient
rom your friends.
Adieu, my dear grandchild +; may
sod e%nlighten, guide and direct you,
and IT we never meet again in this
world, may we meet in the regions of
and there join my beloved
laughter, your lamented mother.
Such are the prayers of your grandma.
our aftectionate grandfather,
Miss Lucr.tia Erwin. H. CLAY.
