Mr. Clay's Speech The following is the conclusion of Mr. Clay’s speech in the Senate on his Compromise Roso- lutiong: Mr. Underwood. Will tho Senator give way for nn adjournment ? Mr. Clay. Ob, no; if I do not weary tho patience of tho Senate, I prefer to go on. 1 think I can begin to seo land. I shall soon coino to tbo conclusion of whut I have to say. Such is tho Union,and such are the glorious fruits which nro now throated with subversion und distraction. Well, air, the first question which naturally arisesis, supposing the Union to be dis solving for any of tile cnoscs or grievances which ure complained of, how far will dissolu tion furnish a remedy for those grievances! II the Union is to be dissolved for any existing sineo come cause, it will bo bocauso slavery is interdicted or not allowed to be introduced into tbo ceded territories; or because slavery is threatened to be abolished in ifio District of Columbia; or because fugitive slaves ure not restored,ns in mv opinion they ought to be, to their musters. These I believe would bo tbo causes, if there be any causes which car, load to tho dreadful event to which I have referred. Let us sup pose tho Union dissolved; what remedy does it, in. a severed state, furnish fur the grievances complained of in its united condition? Will you be able at the South to push slavery into the ceded territory ? How-are you to do it, supposing the North, cr all stutes ’north ol the Phtomao, in possession ot tho navy nod nnny of tho United States? Cun you expect, I say, under these circumstances', tbut if there is 11 dissolution of the Union yon can carry slavery into California and New Mexico? Sir, you cannot dream of such an occurrence." If it were abolished in tbo District of Colum bia und the Union were dissolved, would the dissolution of the Union re-tore slavery in tho District of Columbia? Is your chance for the recovery of your fugitive slaves safer in a stale of dissolution, of severance of the Union, than when in tho Union itself? Why, sir, what is the state of the fact? In tbo Union you lose some slaves and recover others; but here let mic revert to a fact which I ought to have fioticcd before, bocuuse it is highly creditable to tho courts and juries of tho free states. In every -instance, as far as my information ex tends, nr which an appeal has been nmdo to the •ourts of justice to recover penalties from those who have assisted in decoying slaves from their masters—in every instance, us fur as I have heard, the court has assorted the rights of the owner, and thejury has promptly returned an adequate verdict on his behalf. Well, sir, there is thon some remedy while you nro a part of the Union for the recovery of your slave", and some indemnification for their loss. What would you have if tho Union,was severed? Why, then the several parts would be independent of each other—foreign countries—and slaves —escaping from one to tho other would bo like slaves escaping'from tho United States to Canada. There would bo no right of -extra- ditioivno right to demand your slaves; no right tohpeaPto tho courts, of justice to indemnify you forgfee loss of your sluves. Where one slavo escapes now by running away from his mas ter, hundreds and 'thousands would escape if the Union were dissevered—I care not how or where you run the line, or whether indepen dent sovereignties be established. Well, sir, finally, will you, in a case a of dissolution of the Union, bo sttfer with your slaves within tho separated portions of the stutes than you are now ? Mr. President, that they will escape much more frequently from tho border states no one will deny. ' And, sir, I must tako occasion Jtero to sny that, in my opinion, there is no right on tho part of any one or more of tho states to secede from the Uuion. War ami desolution of the Union uro identical und inevitable, in my opiniou. There can he a dissolu- ion of tho Union only by consent or by war. Consent no one can anticipate, from any existing slate of things, is likely to be given, and war is the only alternative by which a dis solution could be accomplished. If consent were given—if it were possible that wo were to be separated by one great line—in less than sixty days after such consent was given war would; break out between the slaveholding ai a non-3laveholding portions of this Union—be tween tho two independent par s into which it would bo erected in virtue of the net of sepa ration. In less than sixty days, I believe, our slaves from Kentucky, flocking over in num- Shrs to the other sido of the river, would bo persued. by their owners. Our hot. and ardent spirits would be restrained by no sense of the right which appertains to the independence of theotho'r sido of tho rivet, should that bo the line of separation. They would pursue their slaves into the adjacent free stutes; they would he repelled, and the consequence would be that in lees than sixty days, war would be blazing in every part of this now happy and peaceful | land. W And, sir, how are you going to separate tho stutes of this Confcdracy? In my humble opin ion, Mv. President, we should begin with at least thico separate Confederacies. There would be a Confederacy of the North, a Con federacy of the Southern Atlantic slave-holding states; and a Confederacy of the. valley of the Mississippi. My life upon it, that the. vast po pulation which has already concentrated and will concentrate on the head-waters and the tri butaries of the Mississippi will never give their consent that tho month of that l iver shall bo held subject to the power of any foreign state or community whatever. Such, I believe, would be the consequences 6f a dissolution of the .Union, immediately ensuing; hut other Con federacies would spring up from time to time, a« dissatisfaction and discontent were dissemi nated throughout tho country—the Confederacy of the lakes, perhaps the Confederacy of New England.,or of the middle states. Ah, sir, the veil which covers thesesadnud disastrous ovents that lie beyond it, is too thick to be penetrated or lifted by nnv iitortuleyo or hand. Mr. President, I urn directly opposed to any purpose, of secession or separation. I am for staying within the Union end defying any por tion of this confederacy to expel! me or drive me out of the Union, I am for staying within the Union and fighting for mV rights, if mjW’afiary, with the sword, within the .bounds and under the safeguard of the Union. I 'tm for vindicating tlidoMsghts, not by being driVpn out of the Union harshly and tSnucromo-iiuusLi • • • *' .• ■ . . " • by any portion of this confederacy. Here I am-' within it,and here I meun to stand and die, as far us my individual wishes or purpi ses.cun fro— within it to protect my property and defend myself, defying all the power on earth to expel me or drive mo from tho situation in which 1 am placed.*—And would there not ho more safety in fighting within the Union than out ot it? Suppose your lights to bo violated, sup pose wrong to be done you, aggressions to be perpetrated upon you, cnnyiiu not bettor vindi cate tliom—ifyou have occassion to resort to the last necessity,the sword,for n rostorutiunof those rights—within, and with the sympathies ot a lurge portion of the population ol tho Union, than by being without the Union, when a large portion of the population liuvp sympathies ad verse to your own ? I on can vindicate your rights within the Union better than.if expell ed from the Union, und driven from it without ceremony and without authority. Sir, I have said that I thought there was no right on tho part of one or more states to secede from the Union. I think so. The constitu tion of the United States w as made not mere ly for the generation that then existed, but for posterity—unlimited, undefined, endless, per petual posterity. And every state that then canto into the Union, und every state that has since come into the Union, came into it bind ing itself by indissoluble bands to remain with in'the Union itself, and to remain within it by its posterity forever. Like another of tho sa cred connexions, in private life, it is n marriage which no human authority can dissolve or di vorce tbo purties from. And if I may be allow ed to refer to some examples in private life, let mo say to tbo North and to the South, whut husband and wife say to each other. We have mutual faults; nel’her of us is perfect; nothing in the form of humanity is perfect; let us, then, be kind to each other—for hearing, forgiving each other’s faults—und above all, lot us live in happiness and pence together. Mr. President, I have said what I solemnly believe, that dissolution of the Union and war are identical and inevitable; that they ure con vertible terms; and such a war as it would be, following a dissolution of the Union! Sir, wo may search the pages of history, and none so fe rocious, so bloody, so implacable, so extermina ting—not even tho wars of Greece, including those of the Commoners of England and the revolutions of Prance—none, none of tluyn nil would rage with such violence, or l«e charac terized w ith such bloodshed and enormities as would the war which must succeed, if that event ever happens, the dissolutionoftho Union. And what would bo its termination? Standing armies and navies, to an extent streatching the revenues of each portion of the dissevered mem bers, would take place. An exterminating war would follow—not, sir, a war of two or three yours’ duration, but a war of interminable dura tion—and exterminating wars would ensue, tin- til after tho struggles and exhaustion of both parties, some Philip or Alexander, some Ctesar or Napoleon, would arise and cut the Gordian FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 1850. £C|* See niis&ellany oil first page. Mr. Clay’s Speech.—Mr. Clay’s great speech on his compromise resolutions is pub lished at length jn several of tho Northern papers. Various opinions ore expressed of this last effort of the great Statesman of the West; some characterizing it as a speech worthyof his palmiest days, while others say that both in matter and manner it fell far below the high expectations of the country. The occa sion wus one of nbsobing interest, and it is probable that no man, not even ,Henry Clay in his prime, could have acquitted himself so as to havo added additional interest to the sub ject, or to have met the conflicting views and feelings of his nudtt.ory. We have had time to give but a glance through the speech, which fills some ten or twelve close ly printed columns of the N. Y.Commercial Ad vertisor; but even had wo an opportunity to re view his argument, we would not undertake the task. vWc dissent from his scheme, believing ns we do, thnt the basis proposed Is not such an one lis can, or ought to give satisfaction to the South. For the sake of the Union we are willing to go far to compromise tho unhappy difficulty between tho North and South; but we could not consent, under nny circumstances, to abandon all that the South justly claims, while ihe North surrenders nothing which she has a right to claim. A scheme of compro mise, to be worth the experiment, must be bas ed upon mutuulconcession of interests and rights —it must be equal und just—it must be such nn arrangement as will, while it gives present con tentment, insure future permanence. We do not regard Mr Clay’s compromise as such an one."I We sincerely hope, however, that it may lend to such an adjustment of the difficulty as will effectually put the exciting question at rest preserve our political Union, and give an endur ing peace to the country. The closing paragraphs of Mr. Clay’s speech, which will bef-iuml in another column of our pa per to-day, present in a striking light the state of tilings, which, in bjs opinion, would inevita bly follow a dissolution of the Union. His re marks on this branch of his subject are ealeu- next ’ Novv the >" are lr - vit, S t( > aboli * h the cats knot, mid solve tho problem of the capacity of man for self-government, and crush the liberties of both the severed portions of this common empire. Cun you doubt it?. Look at nil history—consult her pages, an cient or. moelenv—look at human nature; leek at ihe contest in which you would be engaged in. tho supposition of war following upon tho dis solution of tho Union, such as I have suggested: and Insk you if it is possible for you to doubt that tho final disposition of the whole would be sorno despot treading down the liberties of the people—thefina-1 result would be the extinction of ibis last and glorious light which is leading all mankind, who ure ’gazing upon it, in the hope and anxious expectation that tho liberty which prevails here will sooner.or later e disus ed throughout the whole of the civilized world. Sir, can you lightly contemplate these con sequences ? Can you yield yourself-to the tyranny of pas-ion, amid dangers which l have depicted in colors tar too tame of what the result would be if that direful event to whi ‘ I have referred should ever occur? Sir, I im plore gentlemen, I adjure them, whether from the South or tlmNorth, by all thnt they hold dear in this world—by all they lovo of liberty—by all their veneration for their ancestors—by all their regard for posterity—by all their gratitude to Him who has bestowed on them such un numbered and countless blessings—by nil tho duties which they owe to niamlkind—and by all the duties which they owe to themselves, to pause, solemnly to pause at tho edge of the precipice, before the fearful and dangerous leap is taken into the yawning abyss below, from which none who ever take it shall return in snfe ‘y Finally, Mr. President and in conclusion, I implore, us tho best blessing which Heaven can bestow upon me, upon earth, that if the direful event of the disolution of liiis Union is to happen, I shall not survive to behold the sad and heart rending spectacle. luted to suggest serious and painful thoughts ii every patriotic breast, and should be read by every American, from the Aroostook to the Sac ramento.- How many, North and South, will be ready to join with Mr. Clay’ in his truly patriotic aspiration, with which ho closes his rent effort' in behalf of the Union. Correspondent of the N. Y. Jour, of Com San Francisco, Dec, 29, 1849 You will learn by the papers of the destine tive fire which has just occurred here. At one liino all hope of saving any part of the city was given up by every one. As it wus, it burnt gambling houses, hotels, restaurants, offices stores, tents, dwelling houses, bowling alleys store sheds, and lumber yards. It ruined and blew a gale for three weeks up to the time of the fire. That morning was the most calm and pleasant concoivuble. The next day it again commenced to rninnnd blow. It was one of the most remarkable instances, ever witnessed the visitation of the Almighty, sweeping, as it did, the principal and most notorious, as well as the first gambling establishment, where night am} duy, Sundays and week days, openly unhltishingly and hoaslingly, did they vinlat the laws of both God and man. Many hav beon ruined by the fire, and yet the rebuilding commenced the very morning after it occur rod. In a former letter I mentioned Mr. and Mrs Johnson being on hoard of the steamer. They reached here, and he had rented a little cot tage, furnishing it elegantly at an expense o ? some thousands. Appearances indicated pros perity, wealth uifd longlife, when lo: yester day ho was dining at the most expensive re, taut ant, eating, among other delicacies, ninsh- ruon». One of them sickened him, and going home, ho sent for a physician, but it was too late. He died almost immediately, unconsci ous of anything ! His wife is almost bereft of her reason, and what she eau do here, under the circumstances, Heaven only knows. Thus death has commenced his ravages among those who started from the docks in New York, thnt pleasant afternoon ip September, 1849. The Military Parade.—Wo were unable yesterday to attend the Review which took place on the Parade Ground. A friend who was there describes it as a very handsome pa geant in which cur volunteers acquitted them selves in a highly creditablo manner. In addi tion to tho uniformed companies, several com panies of tho Militia were present and ma le a very soldier-like appearance. The volunteer companies in attendance were Chatham Artillery. Liberty Tuoor. Liberty Guard. Effingham Hl-zzaits. Georgia Huzzars.- Republican Blues. Savannah Volunteer Guards. Irish Jasper Greens. German Volunteers. I’h(enix Riflemen. And first, second, third and fourth Boat Com panies, Georgia Militia. Tho troops were reviewed by Brig. Gen. White, who was received on the field with a solute of thirteen guns by the Chatham Artil lery. After the review, various field evolutions were performed and the exercises of tho day losed with a sham engagement, in which ull the troops participated and which was very handsomely and appropriately conducted. Our friend authorizes us to say in tho language of Military Reports, that the action was u spirit ed afl'air, in which officers and men behaved well. Tho Militia, though their amunition was exhausted, early in the engagement, stood their ground like heroes, and received the charge of the cavalry in the most gallant manner, utterly- disproving the too oft repeated slander that this class of troops are not to be relied on in action We have seen no official report of the killed and wounded, but understand, that two of the cavalry were unhorsed during one of the char ges, by the carrying away of briddle reins arid styrnp leathers. No one was injured, however and the duy passed uffiharmoniously The Sailors and the Cat.—“What upon yeath,” remarked Old Mrs. Stallins, laying down the paper she was reading and raising her silver spectacles from her nose—“what upon yeath will them bomimtble abolitionists lie at The Georgia Historical Society, hold its 11th Anniversary Meeting in the Society’s New Hall, on Tuesday, evening 12ih inst. The following officers were elected for tho ensuing year: Hon. James M. Wayne, President, Hon. M. II. McAllister,1st Vice Pi-es’t. Hon. W. Law,’2d Vice President. I. K. Tf.fft. Esq.

Curators. Hon. C. S. Henry, Rt. Rv. Stephen Elliott, Solomon Cohen, Esq. On motion, a Committee consisting of Messrs. E. J. Harden. ,T. C. Levy, and William Dun- I can, were appointed to superintend the proper arrangement of the Books of the Savannah Li brary Society, now in the Hull of the Georgia I Historical Society, by some competent person, at a compensation to be fixed by the Committee as soon as tho funds of the Society will war rant the expense. . Theso Books have been put upon shelves erected by the Georgia Ilis- I tnricul Society, at considerable expense but the want of funds, has prevented their arrangc- ment in such order as to render proper access to them easy and convenient. Pursuant to notice given and resolution adopted at a previous meeting, the seventh article ol tho Constitution, was amended by the uddition of the following clause: “Life Members of tho Society may he rnado upon the payment of such sum for Admission as tho So ciety shall from time to time determine. The Society fixed the sum of fifty dollars as the price of Admission o f Life Members. By this arrangement it is hoped thnt the means of the Society will be increased, sons to enable it more fully lo prosecute the praise worthy objects of its institution. The Treasurer laid before the Society, the annual statement of the Finances. out of the Navy. I think its perfectly ouJacious to take the sailors cats from ’em. Foor crea- ters, when they are sailing on the briny ocean, away out of creation, without seein anything but sharks and porpoises, for ever so long, how revivin it must ho to ther sperils to have ther cats a comin and coilin round ther legs and pun-in to ’em,remindin ’em of their homes and ther dear absent wives. If any people on the face of the yeath ought to have the right to have ther cats; I think its them poor sailors; and them people what# meddlin themselves about what they know nothing about had a monstrous sight better be miudiu ther own con- sarns. And the old ladys face flushed up and her eyes sparkled with charitable indignation as she resumed her reading about the “abolishment of tho eat and spirits in the Navy.” • [For the Morning News.J St. Valentine. The spring birds now are wooing love, And sing their matins on each tree ; The gentle dove is cooing love, And earth is filled with melody ; The wild flowers kiss the balmy gale, As playfully >t skippelh by, And all things whisper love’s sweet tale : Then, lady, why not You and I ? The busy bee is hunting lovo, While sipping from the heather bell, Tho maiden sighs the coming love, t Of him whose sueing pleased so well : The lark now heavenward wings its flight, Tuning his joyful song on high, And all around breathe love and light: Then, lady, why not You and I ?

Savannah, Feb. 14, 1850. XV. The cholera fs raging to a considerable' extent among tho emigrants at Ward’s Island —says tbc N. Y. Evening Post, The Liberian Emigrants — The bark Chieltain, Capt. Drinkwater, dropped down to Five Fathom yesterday, and took on hoard the emigrants for Liberia. About GO have ar rived from Charleston, and are nlso on board The Chieftain will probably sa l in a day or two, as we learn she has every thing on board necessary for her voyage. Important Decision.—The Supreme Court oP-New Orleans ’ has recently decided in the case of Hart and others vs. tho owners of the Jane Shore, that the ship owner who detains a vessel-after the advertised sailing day, to tin- injury of the freighters, is responsible for all damages. The Court yvould' not. admit evi dence to prove that advertisements and assu rances of owners, of the days of departure,, were not to be considered os binding—-that the Cholera at Memphis. — The Memphii Enquirer, of the 31st notices tho occurrence of three cases of malignant cholera in that city on the preceding day, all of which proved fatal. The persons who died of the disease were Maj. Ware and dnughtor and a Mr. Harris. The small pox was also prevailing there to some extent. Tho Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Sun says: The reshlt of the application of California is extremely doubtful in the Senate, though it may he favorably entertained and accepted by the House. Senator Atchison, of Missou ri, 'tis understood, will oppose it as violently as Mr. Culhoun. Several of ihe Whig Senators from tho South will oko oppose it to “the bitter end.” The issue therefore is very doubtful. [Coirespandcnce of rfo Morning News!) MILLEDGEV1LLE, Feb. 13, 1B5 0 .

[Correspondence of the Morning News.] WASHINGTON, Feb. 9. Congress lias a holiday. The less frequently they meet, tho better, until they can agree to do something, or what is better, to do nothing, in respect to slavery. I am hissing my faith in compromises. I fear that no compromise embracing all the questions which agitato the country, can be mode, which will not leavea rankling wound. Clay’s compromise is offer- [¥ ed in good spirit. Every body praises it.-" Who will vote for it? Half a dozen other compromisesare prepared or talked of. I think Mr. Clay lias blown up the line compromise. Ilis objections to it ate insuperable. Still there is a prejudice in the country .in favor of aline compromise, becuuse it gave the country peace in 1820. I have not heard and am anxious to hear an answer to Mr. Clay’s objections to tho extension of the Missouri Compromise line across the continent. Gen.
