Henry Clay—His Tomb.
i[r rom the Springfield Patiuqt.j ~
While recently in Lexington!, Ken
tucky, we paid a visit to the. tomb of
Heriery Clay. No one visits that city
without gazing on the beautiful
monument which marks tho resting
place of this one of the greatest
statesmen of his day. 'fhe tomb is
situated Hear the centre of the city
cemetery, and on the highest part of
the ground. It is surrounded by all
that wealth and taste can suggest in
tlie way of ornament rtncl elegance.
Oiie is forcibly strtick with the glan
dbiit of the Clay monument long
before bfc reaches it, and as he draws
near his convictions grow stronger
that he is nearing tho imhiorta*,
rather than the mortal.
The grounds are entered on th&
south, and long winding drives Con
duct one through a paradise of mar
ble and beautiful floWers and shrub
bery; together with a natural growth
bf baks and Walnut for which Ken
liifiky is rioted. Reaching the lift)Tint
on which the Clay’’ indmtrrierifc stand;
15',' ysgend its grassy side, unmarked
monument seems ml 1 ® g ase * IjG
thau a vault. It is fortyfeet“<p?.w S0
made of some Southern niurtae,
nicely polished or dressed to n smoot h
surface. Oil two sides are large
grated doors, through which may be
seen the sarcophagus which contains
the immortal dust of one of the
brightest American intellects. One
is most forcibly impressed with ’ the
occasion in beholding at any time
“the last home of man,” but never
were we more deeply moved to the
sad realities of life, or the certainty
of death, than when gazing on this,
the end of Henry Clay. The sarcop
hagus is pure white marble, with a
vine running around its base, dotted
with stars and a mantle thrown par
tially across one end. On the top
is the simple inscription, “Henry
Clay,” and on the side is the follow
ing :
‘‘l can with unshaken confidence
appeal to the Divine arbiter for the
truth of the declaration that I have
been influenced t v no impure pur
pose, no personal motive; have sought
no personal aggrandizement; but
that iu all my public acts I had a
sole and single eye and a warm de
votion to be the true interests of my
country.”
To the right and at the foot of this
coffin rests that of the wife of Henry
Cilay, but no inscription can be seen
on it from without. On the top of
this base l’ests a pedestal of grand
and imposing proportions, surmount
ed by a colossal figure of the great
statesman? This figure is twelve feet
tall, and is said to boa very correct
likanes of Clay when living. The
entire height of the monument is
thirty five feet, and overlooks the
city of Lexington as well as a large
section of surrounding country.—
Henrv Clay died in 1852, and th#
monument which now marks his last
home was five years Wilding and
cost the state a large sum of money.
But tho Southed people praise their
heroes while living and do them in
nvirblc when dead without counting
the tost. Asa people they have a
great veneration for the memories of
their distinguished men.
The Atlanta Herald says that hundreds
of letters are pouring in daily to Mayor

The Germans in Texas.
The Sam. Houston spirit of
Unionism still lives in Texas, and is ’
represented in a great measure, by j
the German-speaking citizens of that ;
State. . In a recent convention of
this class of citizens, held at San An
tonio, an address was prepared to
Veter $ of the State, in whicli a
demand is made for “a liberal sys
tem of free schools,” -'‘effective pro
tection of the lives and property of
all tlie inhabitants of the State:” op-
posit/iontohftlt ■special . legislation, V
and declarations “in any form
against repudation;” in favor of
“State aid to immigration,” and “ea
-s]Wdity and rectitude as the sole rule
of filling.,of I .dee,” against “the pas
sage of any law tending to oppose
any class of the inhabitants of the
state .on account of race or nation
ality,” or “any res'riction of the
personal liberty of the kniizeiis, - arid
particularly against all Sunday and
temperance laws.” The address clo
ses as follow :
The burden of taxation must be
equally divided, without oppressing
special Ifigitinlate occupations. The
taxes to be applied to the real ne
cessities of the Btate and communi
ty only, and to the payment of the
public debt.
Believing it to be the duty of every
citizen to take an active' part in poli
tics, and to sustain his principles at
the ballot box, we respectfully call
your attention to the necessity of a
speedy registration of the voters and
earnestly advise the forming of regu
lar local organizations, and we hope
that this step to unite the Gerrrtan
speffking citizens may have the de
sired effect for the well-being of our
State at large.
Tlie Demo ratio voters of Texas,

shallow devices to bring it over to
their side. Thus far they have mule
no advance'! whatever, the sturdy
Germans having before then! the
fact that the list Legislature increa

rendered life and property insecure,

Tho Telegraph informs us that
Senor Emilio Castelar has been elec
ted President of the Spanish Cortes.
This distinguished Spaniard is one
of the greatest of living praters. In
a recent speech before the Cortes, of
burning eloquence he made the fol
lowing plea for the unity of Spain :
I desire to he Spaniard and Span
iard only. I speak the language of
Oervantesc ; I recite the verses of
Calderon ; I hold in my fancy the
pallets of Murillo and Velasquez.; I
consider as among the trophies of
I national nobility, the histories of the
Piriato and the Cid ; I find in the
records of my country the navies of
the Catalans who conquered in the
East, and the navies of Lie jvdalu
sians who' discovered the West T
desire to belong to this country, ex
tending from tho heights of the Py
renees to the olives ot the Mediter
ranean—-to all this nation redeemed
from the strarger by the heroism
and the Martyrdom of our illustrious
ancestors ! I declare now and always
that I love my country with fervor,
and that before liberty, before the
i republic, before the federation, be
fore democracy, I belong to my illus
trious Spain. I will oppose always
! with all my power the least and the
greatest dismemberment of the soil
which we have received integral
from past generations, wh ch we j
t ought to beq leath integral to the
generations to corn's, which we ough t
to organize into a veritable federa
tion. The cantonal movement is an i
insensate menace to the integrity of
the country and to the future of
liberty. While these cantons |
are breaking up the unity, encourag- j
I ing indiscipline to the army.and com-
I mitting intuimeuable errors, the • 'aV

and pointed. The “actual fct:Ae of affairs"
as sketched by him, is so forcible and true
in every essential particular that it will
well repay perusal. He said :
“In answer to the genera! charges of

•HW 1 and the*? 'exceptional conditions,
exist. In some of the States of the North
west there is complaint that the agricultu
ral is suffering from various causes, and
especially because of extortionate charges
by railroads for transporting their pro
ductions to market ; in others, that tl:e
manulacturing interest is depressed, arid;
in some parts of the South that there is it'
want of growth and prosperity from
causes growing out of the rebellion and
front local milgovernmeut. For these
exceptional conditions and depressions,
the Democratic politicians have no reme
dy of any kind to propose beyond the res
toration of their tattered, dilapidated and
blackened organization to power. Ques
tions of transportation they neither under
stand nor care for. For the depression: of
manufactures they have no sympathy
whatever, an.d for tlifc misiortunes of the
I- South they are above all others respoiisi
! ble. They are like (i’1 H ck doctors who ap
| proacha healthy man in 'the vigor of life
and try to persuade him that lie will cer
tainly die unless lie will purchase and
swallow their villainous nostrums.
In further answer {o their charges, I re
fer to the fact that since the inauguration
of Hetieral brant, on the 4tH of March,
1869. $880,00(1,000 of the national debt
has .been paid off. Within that time the
taxation df the country lias been reduced
by a Republican Congress one hundred
and thirty millions. Within that time
tlie credit of the nation has been improved
and established throughout the world.—
Within that time our difficulties with

half in coin, .arid lias, upon our suggestion,
recognized arbitration between nations as
a substitute for war —the grandest triumph
in the history of .diplomacy, ancient or
modern. Within that time our chronic
difference with England in regard to the
northi\vestern boundary has been settled in
our favor. And I make the general state
ment that (he (lovenunent,in its various
departments, is now administered more
strictly in accordance with law, and with
more system than ever before.”

A Hundred Tons of Gold Coin.
The New York Sun chronicles at
length the arrival of four tons of gold
coin on Tuesday last, from the Snb
treasuiy of Han Francisco to the
Subtreasury in New York. It was
packed in twelve iron chests and’was
guarded by nine armed men. Tnc
gold consisted of one hundred bags
of double eagles, each coutaLniag
$20,000, and oil its receipt at tho
Treasury each brijj* was,emptied and
contents weigkd. One million of the
sum was in coiii fresh from the Sau
Fransisco mint. The Svn says at
the close of business on Tuesday the
balance of gold coin in the New
York Subtreasury was $48,522,487,-
70—equal in weight to about bne
hundred tons. In addition' ter this,
the pame depository contained ten
million dollars in gold bars -$400,-
000 in silver and cHin and $32,000,-
000 in paper currency.
There are two treasure chambers
on different sides of the main floor
in the Subtreasury. Each has walls
of massive stone eightjfaet thick, built
in two parallel sections. The inter
mediate space is filled with boxes of
■ chilled iron packed with balls of the
same material about an inch in di
ameter; These will turn the most
powerful drill ever employed by
burglars. The floor is covered with
iron plates and rests on solid mason
ry, which ox hauls thirty feet below
the siirf“' o : o£ tho sidewalks. The
five iror ah-, .-a o-> set-tired by sever
al heny jo chose doors weigh
about.two hrpf tons each.—
The ch?jm'.K rs are divided into iron
compartments: In the west sice
chamber the gold is deposited, each
compartment containing $500,000
when filled. The gold is packed in
small canvas .bags.

which have grown into the flesh.—-
ihicre is no nrcessity whatsoever for
this pain. The new method is to
keep the patient ten or fifteen days
in bed or on a sofa with a bread or
meal poultice applied to the too.
This poultice is changed several
times daily, and the toe is bathed
twice a day in water as warm as
may be borne. In ten or fifteen days
the nail becomes so soft it may be
cut with scissors and removed by
hand without the least pain.
A Cure for Hog Cholera. — A
correspondent of Cincinnati GazeUc
gives the following as a cure for the
hog cholera : Take peach leaves
aud make a tea. as strong as you
well can. Thicken tea witli corn
meal or bran, then salt it, and give
it to the hogs. There should be
about two bucketsful for forty hogs.
It will make them si*k sometimes;
but we have tried it when the hogs
would vtily take a mouthful, then
walk away; but when driven back
they would eat some more. All that
eat it will get well; and they will eat
this, too, when they will not eat
corn at all. In the winter, peach
tree twigs can be used to’ make the
tea with, in the absence of peach
leaves.

is said that coffee grounds, which

A correspondent from Opelika to
the Montgomery Advertiser in
speaking of the crops, says: Never
in the history of cotton raising has
there been a cotton crop that will
prove more deceptive in the yield
than this one. Three weeks ago
planters were rejoicing over their
flattering prospects, then expected a
full yield, but sad and different the
tale to-day. Many who were expect
