“ The Casßvix.ee Standard” has changed bauds.
J. W. Burke late proprietor, has sold the estab
lishment to Captain W. T. Wofford. The reason
assigned for this change, was the unwillingness
to support the new ticket, nominated for Pierce
- and King by the Union Democrats. The new
editor unfurls the ticket at his mast head and
enters with right good will into the fight against
the Secession wing of the Democracy.
The Lone Star Organization.—As much as we
hea •, says the New York Mirror, of “ Lone Star’’
organizations, and Fillibnster recruiting in Now
York, we positively do not know of a single per
son engaged in this unlawful business who stands
lair before the community a good and respectable
citizen.
This is generally true of these Organizations
every where, we have no doubt. In looking
through the names of those we have known who
figured in them, we do not recollect a single in
dividual of any weight or force of charetcr.
Health of Cities.
In New York, there were 424 deaths last week,

Capt. Wofford's Report.
We subjoin the minority report, made by Capt.
Wofford, one of the Committee of thirteen, at
the late Union Democratic Meeting at Atlanta. J
- W. Burke, one of the Secretaries of the meeting cx
plains its non appearance in the regular report,by
stating that it was not handed in to him, as Capt.
W. did not desire it to appear in the official
report.
MINORITY REPORT OF THE ATLANTA CONVENTION.
Notwithstanding the overtures for conciliation
and harmony among the friends of Pierce and
King, made by the Union Party—we have failed to
secure an honorable conpromise of the difficulties
which have divided us. We have for two years
maintained, against the fiercest the
principles of Pierce and King, and we would gladly
have witnessed the triumph of those principles in
Georgia; but that triumph, in our conception, can
never be effected through the Southern Rights
organization. The principles of that organization
and of the men who compose it, are at war with
the principles of the National democratic partv,
and are sectional and revolutionary in their ten
dency. Consistently therefore, with our principles,
and, in the language of a once distinguished Union
man, “with our self respect,” we cannot think of
giving our support to the ticket now in the field.
And, believing that it its due to a large portion of
l . he P eo P le ofthe State that they have an Electoral
P ticket presented for their suffrages for which they
can honarably and consistently cast their votes, we
respectlly recommend to them the following
named gentlemen:
Gen. u m. B. Wofferd, of Habersham.
Col. E. D. Chisholm, of Polk.
Hon. David Irwin, of Cobb.
Dr. 11. V. M. Miller, of Floyd.
Gen. Allen Lawhon, of Cherokee.
Dr. James J. Singleton, of Lumpkin.
Col. Hopkins Holsey, of Clarke.
Dr. M.G. Slaughter, of Cobb.
Col. Thomas W, Thomas, of Elbert.
Col. John J. Word, of Cass.

Island Cotton, of the new crop, hare been receiv

Grand Lodge of tue United Staes, I. 0.0. F.—
The Baltimore Sun says that it appears from the an
nual report of James L. Ridgely, Esq., Secretary of
the Grand Lodge of the United States, 1. O, O. F.,
that the receipts of that body, for the year ending
the Ist instant, were $12,291.73, exclusive of sl,-
125.50, which is applicable to the “Wildey,” and
“Honolulu Hall Funds.” The balance in hand, at
the time of the last report, was $16,862, making an
*fg re g ate of $29,855,32 in the hands of the treasu
rer during the year. He expended during the year
for mileage, per diem expenses, and appropriations,
$16,1 < 4.08, leaving on hand, on the Ist instant, the
sum of $13,681 24.
The invested funds ofthe Grand Lodge consist
of $2,800 in Maryland 6 per cent, stock, and $6 -
241.41 in the Wildey loan.
There is, it appears, a lodge at Honolulu, in the
Sandwich Islands, with 68 members. In Texas
there are 23 lodges, with over 600 members. Du
ring the year six new lodges were opened in Alaba
ma. In Indiana there are 126 lodges, having a
membership of 5,211; and in Wisconsin 68 lodges
in active operation.
Suit for Damage?.—John F. Paul a broker of
Boston, has brought suit against the Boston and
Worcester railroad company for $12,000 damages,
alleged to have been sustained by a collision of the
cars with his cart, by which his leg was broken and
his horse killed.
The Cask of Bishop Doane.—A special conven

Bishops, in making, what purports to be a new
presentment of the Bishop of the Diocese, may, in
their judgement, require.”

Ball Hoad Convention at Knoxville.
Os Wednesday, tie 22d nit., a Convention rras
held at Knoxville, Tenn., to take measures to build a
Railroad from that place to Danville, Ky., a dis
tance of 140 miles, which is all that is now accessa
ry, with those completed and in progress, tocoa
nect by rail road, Louisisville and Cincinnati with
the Southern Atlantic coast. Wc cull from the
Kegister the following notice of its proceedings,
which cannot fail to interest every sincere friend
of internal improvements:
A delegation from Kentucky was present; and
various counties in this State along the route con
templated were represented.
The convention met at 2 o’clock, P. M. and or
ganized by appointing Dr. Win. J, Baker, of this
place, President, Joseph Porter ami C. Wait,
Esqs., of Kentucky, and Walter K. Evans, Esq., of
Tazwoll, Vice Presidents, and James C. Moses of
this place, Secretary. A committee was then ap
pointed to report suitable resolutions, after which
the convention adjourned to 7 o'clock P. M.
At the appointed hour the convention rc-assem
bled, when the committee, by their chairman, the
Hon. E. Alexander, reported a series of able reso
lutions which were adopted. After excellent speech
es from the Hon. J. H.Crozicr. Hon. E. Alexander,
W. G. Swan, Esq., Col. D. H. Cummings, Col. S.
K. Rogers and others, the convention adjourned
si/hedie.
The attendance was not large : but the best feel
ing pervaded the convention ; and the great object
it contemplated will receive an impetus of no mean
force from its labors. That object was the con
struction of the yet remaining link of only 125
miles from here to Danville, Kentucky, which
would unite the great valley of the Ohio with the
southern Atlantic —the great object which engross
ed the thoughts of onr citizens here and such men
as Hayne abroad, as long as sixteen years ago,
which was subsequently abandoned by rumor of
the misfortunes ofthe times, but which has, unno
ticed, gone on step by step, without any concert
or combination of effort between different sections
of our country, until its arms, stretching towards
each other from the extremes, lack only 125 miles
of meeting. The project of the Rabun Gap road
too occupied a considerable share of the thoughts
of the convention which was expressed in a suita
ble resolution.
We will only add that the construction ofllus
great link of 140 miles is, and has been, for some
time attracting the attention of observing men
abroad, who seem really to appreciate its advanta
ges more than our own citizens—just as the Falls
of Niagara are infinitely more appreciated as a sub
lime work of nature by strangers, than by those
persons who, we are told, live within hearing of
its perpetual thunders, and yet have never had tin;
curiosity to visit the scone. We append an ex
cellent article on this very subject taken from the
N. T. Times of the 18th hist. The writer has,
however, fallen into an error in computing his dis
tances. From Dalton to Knoxvill is near 12u miles
and 90 miles of this arc completed—leaving only
30 to be made :
VIEWS OF WESTERN RAIL ROADS.
Direction ofthe Great Axial Lines Cincinnati plan
0 f 1636 —the Cincinnati and Charleston railway
nearly complete —the Connections of the Gulf
and the Lakes.
I have stated that the great central axis of the
vallev, (the Mississippi,) is nearly in a direct north
and south line ; ana the great transverse axis, (the
grooves ofthe Missouri and Ohio,) is nearly east
and west. The one extends from the highlands ol
the lakes to the Gulf of Mexico, and the other,
from the Apalachain Chain to the Andes of the
north. These, therefore, arc the great ordinates,
to which any well-adjusted system ot improve
ments in the'contra! States must be direct d, ci
ther on rectangular or parallelled lines. Os course,
it was not to be expected that in the hap-hazard
manner of granting charters, and tiro local object,
in view,always the immed : ato incentives of Ameri
can legislation, that any general plan would.be, at
the first adopted; especially as it required the joint
action of eight different States. Yet, it is a fact,
that the very first plan—devised in the west for
rail road construction —was the grand idea of unit
ing Lake Eric with the southern Atlantic, by a rail
way at least nine hundred mites in length, passing
from the metropolis of the central west, (Cinein
uati,)— terminating in the south at Charleston, S.
C., and in the north at Clea\ eland, Ohio. This
plan was ardently advanced by Dr. Samuel Drake,
of Cincinnati; E. D. Mansfield, Esq., then editor
ofthe Cincinnati Chronicle; Judge J. C. Wright,
now editor ot the Cincinnati Gazette; Governor
Vance; Alfred Kelly, since so distinguished in
railroad constructions; and many other public
spirited citizens of Ohio. In the South the plan
was enthusiastically received. Among the most
zealous of its advocates was the late Gen. Hayne
and Judge Blauding of South Carolina. In July,
1836, the largest railroad convention ever held in
the United States, met at Knoxville, Tennessee,
and was attended by as many men of distinction,
character and substance as, perhaps, was ever gath
ered in any similar assembly. General Hayne
was President, and the plan of the great work "de
vised. Charters were obtained from all the Btntes,
but, in Kentucky, was burdened by such restrlc
. tions, as, connected with the financial adversities
ofthe following year, rendered.the completion of
the work, as a whole, by one company, impractica
ble. But, mark the course of inev Stable events! —
The splendid scheme was founded on the wants of
the country and the operations of nature, and now,
after sixteen years, is rapidly drawing to its com
pletion. How near, you will judge by the follow
ing statement of rail roads on that line, completed,
in progress and provided for: and how profitable
it is likely to be, any Wall street Broker can tell,
by exauiiniugthe annual reports of the completed
links, at either end :
Charleston to Augusta. . 187 miles, complete,
Augusta to Dalton 271 miles complete.
Dalton to Knoxville 1«'0 miles, 42 in. “
Cin. to Cleveland .253 miles complete.
j Cincin. to Lexington 91 miles in progress.
i Lex. to Danville. 30 miles under contract,
j Danville to Knoxville.. .125 miles chartered.
! Whole length 1.011 miles.
j Completed 704 “
In progress 182 “
i Untouched 125 “
I A numerous convention was recently assembled
| at Barkesville, Ky., to .arrange the means of
i constructing the gap between Danville, ami
Knoxville, and which, from its importance, and
j from the fact that the connection of the northern
and southern parts is dependent upon that will.
| beyond a reasonable doubt, be early completed.—
One thousand miles of continuous railway ceutral
j izing at Cincinnati, the metropolis of "the west,
will then unite in all the bonds of commerce pa
triotism and friendship, the broad waters of La e
Erie, and the broader tides of the Southern Atlan
tic. IVho can estimate properly the effect of such
a work in developing that great and various region
which lies between the Ohio and the Tennessee?:
Who can estimate its effect in increasing the trade
and population of Cincinnati I Few of the daily
frequenters of Wall street, I imagine, have much
acquaintance with that great country, as yet but
sparsely populated : and but little cultivated,
which lies hundreds of miles south ofthe upper
Ohio. The map exhibits it as a region filled with
mountains and streams, and the census numbers
but a thin and scattered people over the largest
part of its surface. But let me assure these deni
zens of Atlantic cities that no works of physical
improvement will anywhere produce more impor
tant results. It is there they are most needed, and
where the elements ofthe country tend to make
them most productive. Ifyou will note the geo
graphical configuration of the country, yon will sec
that the railway from Cincinnati, through Knox
ville to Georgia is at right angles to all the rivers
running west, and for hundreds of miles can have
no competition of any sort. A region of country
then extending from Cincinnati into northern
Georgia—about 400 miles in length and 250 in
breadth, making 100,000 square miles—will have
no arterial railway, (none at all but small tributa
ries’) except this one grand railway from Cleveland
through Cincinnati and Knoxville to Charleston on
the seaboard. The only great mart of trade for
that region is Cincinnati. Let me add, by the
way, that hard as they arc to get at, Cincinnati
flow-sends her merchandise and manufactures to
East Tennessee and Northern Georgia. It is at
Cincinnati then, that the trade of the central south
west will concentrate, from the banks ofthe Ohio
to the hills of Carolina. (If the southwestern railway
through Vigrinia I shall hereafter speak.. It is
enough to say now that it will take hut little of that
taadc which tends to the Ohio.
The great iion way from Charleston to Cincin
nati, by diverging northwardly into northern
Georgia, and thence changing northeast to Knox
ville, turned instead of t tossing, the great Apalach
iau ridge. At Knoxville it penetrates what is not
improj»erly called “the Switzerland of America,”
mauutuins far loss lofty, indeed than those of an
cient Helvetia, but scattered with no less profu
sion, lie ail around you ; rapid streams roll their
way towards the Mississippi. The Clinch the
Powell, the Holst-on, the Tennessee, and the French
Broad, pour their waters from their mountain
springs, till unitedly they constitute at last the
gentle current of the Lower Tennessee.
Then, indeed, the whitening fields of ripened
cotton denote the proximity of a more tropical re
ot the American Helvetia ; and let me tell you— .
tor I ha\e been there— that no part of the Ameri- ,
can continent is richer in mineral resources than
these mountains. \ou have heard of Pennsylva
nia and Map land coal and iron, but here for hun
dreds of miles, coal and iron, limeston end timber, i
he by your side m quantities sufficient to supply
a world. Here toois a mountain air, which be
comes balmy with the odor of pines ahd ceder
and here too are stalwart men—such as onlv liber
ty and the mountains can produce.
Viator del Occidents.
The following resolutions reported by the Com
mittee, were adopted by the Convention :
IVhe-eas, A railroad from Knoxville Tennessee,
to Danville a distance of only one hun
dred and forty miles, is the only link notin process
of construction, now necessary to connext the cities
of Louisville and Cincinnati and the great valley of i
the Ohio, with Norfolk, Va., Charleston, S. C«
havantiahj.Ga., Mobile. Ala., and ultimately witli
Pen?ncoin Florida, and New Orleans. And w here
as charters have been granted in the several States
through which this connecting road is proposed to
bo run:
1. Be it therefore Resolved, by this convention
that wo foci a deep andearuest interest in the early
undertaking and energetie prosecution of this
great work, the completion of which wilidevclope
the resources of one of the most important and
valuable portions of our Union and that wo cor
dially invite all the states, railroad companies and
citizens interested in these important connections,
to lend us what aid they can to the accomplish
ment of this most desirable result.
2. Jit solved, That it is the sense of this conven
tion that, as soon as it can be done, an experimen
tal survey should be made of such portions of the
contemplated route as have not heretofore been
surveyed, to the end that the nearest, best and
most practicaqle line ot road may be ascertained.
3. Resolved, That we recommend to the commis
sioners appointed in the several charters of incor
poration, to confer together and as early as practi
cable, devise the most efficient mode of organiza
tion.
4. Resolved, That it be earnestly recommended
to the citizens of tiic several counties, through
which the road will run in Tennessee and Ken
tucky, to make applications to their county courts
and earnestly press the same before the people for
county subscription.
5. ttesolved , That committees of correspondence
be appointed at suitable points upon the route for
the purpose of procuring harmony and efficiency
of action and collecting and disseminating correct
information on the subject.
6. Resolved , That a committee bo appointed
whose duty it shall be to draw up and publish an
address to the public, setting forth the importance,
necessity and advantages of this great work.
While these resolutions were under considera
tion, and previous to their adoption by the con
vention, the meeting was addressed by Wm. G.
Swan, Esq., Col. D. li. Gumming, Dr. F, A. Ram
sey, lion. E. Alcxandr, Col. Sam’l. K. Rodgers,
W. R. Evans, Esq., and Hon. Sam’l. B. Boyd of
Tennessee, and by Maj. Joseph Porter, of Ken
tucky.
The speeches of these gentlemen were listened
to with attention. Many facts were presented and
eloquent appeals made, that were calculated to
arouse to prompt action the friends of the enter
prise—to promote which the convention had as
sembled. The best spirit pervaded the delibera
tions of the meeting; and it is to be hoped that
the vigorous and united support of the friends of
the enterprise will follow up its action, uud be per
severed in, until the construction of tins connect
ing line of railway is accomplished. It is a mea
sure of interest not only to the states of Kentucky
and Tennessee, but it is a work of truly Rational
importance.

Professor W, Ernenputscii.
We have seen, with groat pleasure, that the
above gentleman lias made arrangements to re
open his school on Monday, the 4th inst., and we
think that all the friends of good education will
' be gratified at his decision to remain in our city.
Wo understand that Mr. Erucnputsch in the past
year, has not received the encouragement due to
one of his moral and literary worth, and wo trust
that during the ensuing year, our community will
show a more just appreciation of his merits. The
writer .of thL, has been long and well acquainted
w ith Mr. E., and he must bear testimony to his
high standing as a scholar of first rate talents and
acquirements, and a man of the most amiable and
i rreproachablo character.
He is a graduate of a Gorman University, and
■ was for some time a Professor in the University
of the City of New York. Ho has been at the
head of some of the best schools in our country,
and was for sixteen years Rector of the Academy
of Richmond county. In every station which he
has filled, lie has proved faithful to the trust com
mitted lo him ; and, judging from his numerous
and lauditory testimonials, he must have given
universal satisfaction.
Wc close this communication by inserting a few
extracts from some of the certificates given to Mr.
Erucnputsch :
; From Charles Anlhon, of Columbia College,
Now York: —
“ 1 have great pleasure in recommending Mr.
Erueupatsch, as an able classical scholar, and
from my acquaintance with his character and gen
eral attainments, 1 think him particularly qualified
to take charge of a Seminary for the education of
youth.”
j From Rev. A. Church, D. D., President of Frank
lin College :
, “It gives me pleasure tu say, that Air. Erucn
putsch is, In my opinion, a gentleman of very high
; attiamuents, as a scholar; we have had a number
f of students who were prepared for College by Mr.
E., and we have always found them thoroughly
instructed in the studies to which they had attain
i' ed.
( lie has, 1 am persuaded, done much valuable
service in the cause of education, and will, I think,
if he continue in the profession, still be most use
ful as an Instructor.”
At a meeting of the Board of Trustees of the
Academy of Richmond county, held on the 27th
June, 1840, the following resolution was unanim
ously adopted
"Resolved, As the sense of the Board, that air.
Ernenputsch, has, during the whole of his long con
nection with the institution, been most faithful
. and exemplary, and that they cheerfully rccom
; mend him as a man of the highest moral worth,
and eminently qualified as an instructor in the
classical and higher mathematics.”

i The project of a new line ofsteam ships between
; Philadelphia and Charleston, is in progress. The
, ! Philadelphia papers contain the following card,
signed by Messrs. Heron & Martin :
“The undersigned beg to inform their friends
and the merchants interested in the Southern trade,
that they have obtained subscriptions to the
amount of SBO,OOO towards the establishment of a
steam communication between this port ami Char
leston, S. C., and earnestly request the co-opera
! lion of every one interested in the welfare of
I Philadelphia, to assist them in raising the sum
. required". The plan preposed for the establish
j incut of the line is, to build one ship similar, and
! in no respect inferior to the “State of Georgia,”
j and of as great speed as can he obtained—-say
capable of making the passage to Charleston in 43
hours. The “State of Georgia” could make the
passage in 50 to 52 hours, and with her make a trip
every week, leaving Philadelphia on Saturday, at
8 A. M., and Charleston cm Tuesday, at 4P. M.
By pursuing this course the capital required would
be only about $150,000, and the sum saved by run
ning one ship instead of two, over $5,000 per
month.”
The Bible in South America. —The Buenos
Ayrean Goverment has recently decreed that in
the course of instruction pursued in the public
schools in that country, the Word of God shall be
included. This is a very interesting fact. If the
children and youth of the South American Repub
lics can be educated with the Bible in their hands,
the liberties of those Republics may be regarded as
permanent.
Collision on the Central Railroad.
The following note from the President of the
Central Railroad Company to our contemporary ot
the Evening Journal, contains all the particulars
of the collision which took place on the road Tues
day morning. The only injury sustained was by
three train hands and some empty cars. The en
gines were very slightly damaged. The whole loss
of property is inconsiderable.
The object of the President’s note, doubtless, was
to counteract the exaggerations which rumor, with
her thousand tongues, is ever ready to set afloat.
In this he has acted wisely.— Sac. Hep.
[From the Evening Journal .]
Central K. K. Depot, Sept. 29,1852.
Dear Sir :—A collision occurred on the Central
Road on yesterday, about 8, A. M., at the 98th
mile post, between two freight trains, the result of
which, I regret to state, was the serious bodily in
jury of three train hands.
The ascending train, heavily laden, had but one
car injured, and nothing thrown from the track.
The engine is but slightly injured. The descending
train had, chiefly, empty cars, in one of which
were the hands who were hurt. Five of the cars
of this t rain have their wood work, for the greater
part, destroyed. The engine escaped serious de
triment—the heavy bumpers and cow-catchers of
the respective engines saving the machines. The *
tanks of the engines are damaged. (
The collissiou is the result of a gross violation of
rule by the engine man of the descending train,
who ran past a station ahead of his own time, and
directly in the time of the up-traiu. The public ;
may rely upon the just punishment of the oli'en- ;
der.
The road was speedily cleared, and the up and
down passenger trains of last night passed regu-
larly.
Very respectfully, your ob’t serv’t,

Tiie Accident on the State Rood.
The Christian Telegraph, published at Atlanta, ■
contains the following account of the recent easu ” “
ty on the State Road, which agrees substantially
with what wc had previously obtained from a pas
ger:
A fearful catastrophe occurred on the Western
and Atlantic Railroad, usually known by the State
Road, on last Thursday night, between 8 and 9
o’clock, P. M., 23d iust.
The up-train had been detained by some defect '
in the engine, and this threw her behind her time; !
but proceeding on after night, which was quite
dark, from its being very thick cloudy, and rain
ing some at the same' time; till near one of the
Chickatmuiga bridges, the engine was thrown from
the track by a large ox which was lying down on |
the road. The engine entered the bridge off of I
the track, and tore it up so as to let the engine, !
tender, and baggage ear fall through. The wood
passer and fireman were killed. The latter had
one leg torn from his body at the hip joint, and we
have not heard that his log has vet been found
he died directly.
The former was caught between the boiler and
tender, with the lower parts of his legs and feet
fastened against the burning boiler, where he re
mained for several hours, all attempts to relic . e
him proving abortive, till a physician was obtained
and cut oft’ his legs; when he goon after expired.
The poor fellow begged them to cut off his legs ;
but no one seemed to have fortitude enough to do
it. Oh I what sufferings ho must have realized! —
Here for hours with his feet upon nearly red hot
iron!
The engineer escaped, being badly scalded; but
it is thought he will recover. He jumped from the
engine as she went down, swam the river, and was
found quite irrational some distance from the
bridge on the road.
Mr. Thomas B. Daniel, of Atlanta, the Mail
Agent, was carried down with the cars nearly, or
quite twenty feet, and was very seriously bruised
about the loins; but he is mending, and will proba
bly soon recover.
Mr. Chandler, the conductor of the train, did all
in his power to relievo and help the suft'erers, and
to render them as comfortable as possible in their
suffering condition.
Tins awful accident was caused by the neglect
of the man appointed to watch the bridge. Had
he been at his place with his light, those lives
might have been saved, and the sufferings ot the
injured prevented, and the damage and cost to the
Road company saved. Such unfaithful servants
deserve sound chastisement for such breaches of
fidelity.
The InUlligtncer narrates the same facts and
adds:
The repitilion of serious accidents uu this road,
in consequence of obstructions upon the track,
shows conclusively enough, the necessity of having
the engines properly equipped with “ cow-catch
ers.” "The plea that these almost indispensable
appendages cannot be used with safety on the
, State Road, because a portion of the road is laid
with flat bar iron, is of no avail in the face of the
fact that on some of the best regulated railroads in
1 the country, which until a few years were laid with
the fiat rail, these articles have been regarded as
absolutely necessary, and were use 1 with safety
before the roads we re re-laid with the heavy rail,”
i Tribute to Henry day.
A recent number of the Richmond Enquirer,
contains a long letter from Thomas Ritchie, Esq.,
‘ late the veteran editor of that paper, relating many
interesting incidents of Mr. Clay's life, and es
pecially of his agency in establishing the great
( compromise of sectional difficlties, which was the
crowning glory of his well spent life. Mr. Ritchie
‘ -had been on terms of intimate personal friendship
with Mr. Clay when both were young; but politi
cal opposition engendered asperities of feeling
which for many years had interrupted their social
intercourse, till in 1850, their patriotic feeling
prompted them to co-operate in seeking to avert
! the dangers which seemed to menace the safety of
the Union. Mr. Ritchie says :
’ On the evening of the 10th of February, Gen.
Bayly and myself waited on Mr. Clay at his room,
iu the National Hotel. It was one of the most re
markable interviews which ever took place in this
city. lie received us with the most winning cour
tesy and kindness. He treated me as if no un
-1 pleasant relations had ever existed between us.
He expressed the profound interest which he took
in the leading questions of the day, and the anxie
ties he fell about the Union itself. Ho regretted
' that 1 had formed so unfavorable an opinion about
his resolutions, and said that he had been “hur
ried” into their presentation by the strong appeals
1 had addressed to Congress.
We then proceeded to a critical analysis of his
resolutions of Compromise. Wc commented on
1 the policy which it was proper to pursue in rela
tion to California. Wc devoted some time to the
1
recognition which he had virtually given, in his
r resolutions and speech, of the Mexican Law. in
respect to slavery in New Mexico, i contended
that Hie South would never acquiesce in t his fea
ture, because the recognition ot the validity of the
Mexican Law, by the act of Congress, was equiva
■ lent to the Wihnot Proviso. Upon this point there
1 was a great deal of ingenuity and learning exhibi
ted on the part of General Bayly, as well as Mr,
Clay, in which Gen. B. sustained our view. So
frank, was our conference, and with such courtesy
did ho demean himself, that Air. Clay even re
ceived, with the utmost patience, the observation
: I threw out, that a- it was necessary to strike the
1 Mexican Law from his resolutions, 1 had been
thinking how that object was lobe accomplished,
and that I would respectfully suggest to him to fol
low his own precedent during the Missouri contro
versy, and move a committee of thirteen to whom
the whole subject should be referred, and settled at
once—never again to be disturbed. On the ques
tion of Texas, Air. Clay conversed with great
frankness. He saw there was great danger of col
lision between the government of the United States
and the people of Texas—uud he spoke at some
length of the boundaries which Texas should pos
sess, and the amount which should be paid to her.
Upon the passage of u law for the restoration ot
fugitive slaves, he was most emphatic and decided.
It was an essential part of the system—and it
would be idle to attempt anything unless it were
effectually to be provided tor. He touched upon
the sale of slaves imported into the District of
Columbia. And in tact there was no branch of
the subject on which the three persons present
did not freely express their opinion, my friend
General Bayly taking a most active and efficient
part in the whole conversation. There was but one
sentiment among them on one point—and that
w'as, it was necessary to settle the whole subject
at once and forever, in order to secure the peace,
the Union, and the permanent prosperity of our
country.
As i rose to leave the room, 1 asked of Air. Clay
if 1 did not understand him as saying that the
whole question was lo be settled at once, by a fair
and . liberal compromise—“ Everything or No
thing!’ He cordially assented to tins idea. I
then frankly asked him whether if nothing else
could be effected to save the Union, would he
agree to the adoption of the Missouri Compro
mise! He as frankly replied, substantially, and
nearly in the words as follows;—“As far as I am
personally concerned, I can have no objection to
the Missouri Compromise line, but 1 do not think it
will be agreed to, nor do I see what the South is to
gain by it. If, however, it can be agreed to, and if
it lie satisfactory, 1 will acquiesce iu it for the sake
of the public tranquility.” After finally telling him
that I would sec him again, if it were necessary to
renew the conversation, wc took our leave.
I hare never seen any one conduct himself with
more frankness and dignity than Mr. Clay, during
the whole of this interview. 1 left him deeply im
pressed with his love of country, his devotion to
the Union, and the conciliatory spirit iu which he
was attempting to secure it. How superior did he
rise above all private fends and party considera
tions ! Willi what indefatigable zeal, and with what
indomitable spirit, did he pursue the great object
he had in view ! But his numerous speeches,
elaborate as well as impromptu, bear w itness to his
energy, ability and devotion to the Union. The
labors of the day and the vigils of the night, were
consecrated to this object—until at last his consti
tution began to give way, and the foundation was
laid of that fatal disease, which has sent him lo
the tomb, a martyr in the public service.
Y r et Mr. Clay wiis as fortunate in his death as he
was in his life. He died amid all the consolations
of religion, with the respect of his country and
the sincere regrets of many a man who was
once his political enemy. He died after having
seen the,Compromise, to which he had deVotea
the last years of his life, adopted as the platform of
both political parties.

Monument to Mr. Clay.
Washington, September 28, 1852.
Messrs. Gales 6c Seaton: Inquiries have been
made in different parts of the country why no
' movement has been made with a view to erect a
national monument to the memory of Henry Clay.
Perhaps the best mode of answering these in
quiries, and, at the same time, of giving notice to
' the numerous and admiring friends of the deceased
> statesman of what is iu contemplation, is to pub
l iisli the enclosed letter. For this purpose, I re
spectfully ask its insertion in the columns of the
Intelligencer.
1 am, with great respect, your obedient servant,
N. 6argent.
P. S. Allow me to avail myself of this occasion
to respectfully ask such persons in various sections
1 of the United States who are disposed to promote
the object above mentioned, and to become mem
bers of an association to bo formed for that pur
-1 pose, to forward their names and places of resi
dence to me. N. S.
Washington, August 27, 1852.
Dear Sir: In reference to the subject of form
ing an association for the purpose of erecting a
national monument at the seat of government to
the memory of the great American statesman,
Henry Clay, in regard to which you have held
some conversation with us, allow us to suggest
that, iu consequence of the lateness of the session
of Congress, the great amount of important busi
ness .-till to bo disposed of, and the anxious desire
we have to reach our homes as soon as possible
after e lung an absance, the movement had better
| be postponed until the commencement of the next
j session when w c will cordially co-operate with
yourself and others in promoting an object so much
to be desired, as wc doubt not the friends of the
distinguished deceased will in every section of the
Union.
In the mean lime, we would suggest the pro
priety of your addressing some of these iu different
States on the subject, with the view of enlisting
their efficient aid.
Yours, very respectfully.
