WHIG PROFESSIONS—HUPUBLICAN PRACTICE. One ofihe Whig Candidates for tha Presidency, kltxRT Clat.Iim et the aluventb hum, when el, U quiet, end when the Abolition fanatics have been •Ignatiy rrbukrd by Northern Dcmoci att—liy such men aa Dr. Nilsi, of Connecticut—Cul. VouKO.of New Ymk, end Isaac Hill, of New Hampaliire Hkhry Cur, haa, we repeat, at (At eleventh lour, came out, and declared that be ie not on Ab* olitioniat. Our readera, however, will rcrollect that Mr. Clay’i early biographer—PrkntIck, pfltae Louis* villo Journal, when he sung Ida praises, gave hi* liera much credit fur hia philanthropic exertiuna to free the negro race—for Ida devotion to the citnae . of freedom, without distinction of color. Indeed • great number of the page* tif Mr. Clay's " Mo. tnolrs," were filled with authoritiea on the aubject, In reference to hia oxcrtioti* to emancipate the de scendants of 11 am. Our rondera will more easily recollect the event* ful session of 1835 and 1830, when both llotiara of Congress were inundutod with Abolition petition* . —when the vile ngituima of the Tampan school, a were'clreulnting their «6re*brnnd doctrine* through m\ thtf land—when the Poat Offices tvero made the ^ meant of propagating the wretched and hypnerili* cal production* of A.voklina Grimke, George Thompson, nnd Wm. Lloyd Garrison, the“grcnt unwhi|it." Our readers, will perfectly recollect ' that period, and'tltey will remember a “bill to pro* ldbitdeputy postmasters from receiving, or Irons mining through the mail td any State, Teiritory, or Diattict, certuin papers therein menlinncd, the cir* culaiiou of wliiclt, by the luws of suid State, Terri tory or District mny be prohibited.” This law wus, in Tact.to giva thepnitmaatera throughout the Union, tha power to put u stop to the grentevil of circulating Incendiary tracts; which were calculated to put'the da’gger or the torch, or both, into the hands of the slave population, to avenge imaginary evils. Mr. Vam Durkn, wua then Vice President of the Uni ted States, and,’ of course President of tho Senate.' The vote was tuken on tho question “-shall the hill pass!” It appeared that there were eighteen for the bill, nnd eighteen against it. It beenme tho President’(. duly to give the casting vote—and did he shrink from that doty? NO! He came down from the Chair, and voted in tlm affirmative. He voted in favor of the rights of the South, urn! uguinst the 'Abolitionist*. Where was Hen'r'y Clay, at this hoar of trial? Ho wns in hi* place in the Senate—nnd he voted in the negative. He voted in favor of the All ot itionuts-—and AGAINST THE. SOUTH !!! . . Here is one 'facilbat is worth a million of pro fessions. The Journals of Congress will show the vute. All tlm exertions of the Abolitionists were stretched at that lime, to extend their power and accomplish their end*—and the result was, for n period, proldemiuicul. . Thu Southern members Itad it in contemplation to retire', in a body, from Con gress— where they were every day subject to insult • nnd repmnch, without redress. It was then that ^Martin Van Buren proved himself a friend to tlie South. It wusthenthol Henry Clay proved that he was recreant ? and that vuto alone should turn every. Southron against liim. But, who.doe* not remember tlint HkNRY Clay was.the advisor and Privy Counsellor of John v» Boss, and. the instigator of that individual in his opposition to the luws of Georgia. To the hut, 'jV Henry Clay opposed the removal of the Chen,- : :• kees,.trail used all Id* eloquence in favor of .the In dian plondi rer, lions utid liis party. This was, how- ever, part of his creed, as a philanthinpht of the 7. modern school; ami titiy recommend him to those ’l who nto in furor of waiving all distinctions r.f color 2 —bit we question whether any Georgian, nrnny in- £ haliitaui of the Slate, will bo hnc.ly enough to make [ it u clone of recommendation. 1 Wide pr* fassions, nnd democratic practice, nre I two very different tilings—they* are shown in the I speech of the whig Henry Clay—they nre shown 1 in tho vote of the demnerat'o Martin Vaja Burnett. Mr. Clay bus given us empty words—Mr. Van Buren has given us rent an l substantial benefit*. “Choose ye between iliem." [for THE GEORGIAN.] WANDERING MINSTRELS. In Switzerland, In Italy, and in France, a great portion of the poorer classes arc brought up as itin erant musicians. In Savoy, especially, and in tho epuntry round tho Alps, the soil is too unfruitful to give employment to the poor. A few garden vege tables, nnd roots, nro all tliut it will yield. The emulation, therefore, cannot find their labour profi- ‘TOble, or even receive the necessaries of life, in re turn for their exertions. They incrcnso rupidly in .these parts, and leave their natal soil in hordes,to “seek their fortunes" in forcigtrlands. Tho organ player, the harpist, the violinist, the performer on the guitar, or the more humble turner of tho “hur dy-gurdy," may be seon in all parts of tho globe wherecivilizatinn exists—exerting their humbleabil- ities to please ull. who *• have music in their souls,” or money in their pockets. It is common to. see in New York, Boston, and Philadelphia, and also in the large cities of Europe, poor little Italian boys of a tender age, with pup- ^ pet shows slung to their backs—with white mice in cages—a talking parrot—or a smnll land tortoise, conconlcd beneath their gnrmcnts, which they will exhibit to the curious for tho smallest gratuity.— These juvenile performers, nro most thrifty, and examples are known whore some ofthem have made largo sums of money, nnd became useful citizens. Joseph Bonfanti, of New York, who in a fitof somnambulism, walked out of a window, sometime -since,was once a little Italian wanderer,who amassed alarge fortune before his death, and was much res pected in that city, as an upright and benevolent man. It is illiberal to look on these wanderers, as idle vagrants. They work hard. They travel through all countries on foot uud what nppeurs to us nothing but tho whim of strolling mendicants, is to them a regular calling. They follow.it from their youth, and are fit fur nothing else. They nro not like tho Gitanos, or Gypsies, who area light fingered race, and seldom visit cities. The minstrels are peaceful and honest, and practice no arts, unless to call into 'YfcqUtsitiori, tho gentle influence of sweet sounds. Those poor wanderers glenn but a scanty pittance. They are temperate in their hnpits, and easily satis fied. They never taste “ strong wnters"—and a crust of bread, and a draught from tho limpid spring, is to them a cheerful feast. They are a happy race, and we might envy them. These remarks are drawn out, in consequunco of hearing those “ houseless strangers" spoken of as lazy and indolent—and unworthy of notice. The reverse is tho fact. A LOOKER ON IN VENICE. ©fav cm all passenger* arriving from foreign countries in our harbour, whereas, previously the practice bad been to demand only one. The con sequent* was, that some fifteen hundred or two thousand poor and destitute foreigner*, a Ito hud not the ability to meet this Increasetfdemand upon them —for allthey had, had probably been expended in paying their passage money, and tho previous com mutation fee,—were driven away and landed near Amboy, where they had to seek shelter and support from tho companionate, whilst for week*, tho avenues to tho city were guarded by police officers, to prevent their entrance to it. “Wo will not stop to inaulro into tho necessity, which tho Gdtette urges existed, for tho exaction of on increased commutAtion fee, but admit it on gen eral grounds; yet surely, “common sense nnd com mon hnnosty" required that some previous notice of •it should have been given to those who would bo colled upon to pay it; that men should not have been allowed to leave tho countries of their birth on tho faith of a long established practice, nnd on reach ing tho land of their hope, find it closed to thorn by' the introduction of an usage entirely now." “ Murder will out," at last. Here, tho Courier, in tho bitterness of its anguish—in its “weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth," tells ofthe misery— •the countless, tho unknown number of unfortunate foreigners who flocked to our shores, us the“'asylum of the oppressed of all nations"—tho country which they were taught to reverence, ns ."The land ofthe free ami the home of the brave," to kiss tho virgin sail .of Freedom—to chaunt tho song of Liberty—no /—to bo turned away with scorn and contempt by tho Whig Mayor of New York— bo tossed again upon tho “ mountain wave"—to tako their chance upon tho waters, through which they had already passed. And, under what pretext wore they kept from landing? Because they had not $10 a pieco. It mattered not whether they were tho countrymen of a Montgomery—of a Pulaski —ofu Sterling —of a Lafayette—it wns enough that they hod not ten dollars ! Oil magic power of gold, what const thou not do? A bank robber— a forger—a swindler, a cheat, might roam at Inrge through the city of Gotham, under tho sway of Mayor CLAnK-but the honest, hardy laboureretho “unwaah- TedartUan,’’the despised materiel for tho manufacture of a loco foco, should not pollute its “milky way" uiiloss he could produce a passport in tho shapo of ten dollars!!!

Which of you, sovereign, and royal despots, as you arc, would keep a poor- hut honest—foreigner from entering your dominions, under such a pleaf Not one! No! Itramnlned for the j Whig Mayor of New York, to desecrate the plains of Freedom,' by such a charge. Yet, what reward has ho reaped? How have his fellow-citizens recompensed him for his activity in stemming the lido of immigration ? Simply, to wulk him out of office, and “ leave him alone in his glory." Mr. Clark is an advocate for depriving naturalized citizens of their right of suffrage—ho is for denying those who may arrive at our shores,of the privilege of udnpting tho country as tiieir own. He is ultra in these opinions, nnd we rejoice to suy, finds few, very few, even among his own political party, to sanction- his .views. But his race is run. His day is over, nnd he may henceforth repose in quiet; All he can do, will not deprive our great country of the proud nnd brilliant appellation she hfh long since received from tho patriotic nnd the good. No! Sho will long remain, what she is— " The laud ofthe free ami the home ofthe brave." WEST POINT ACADEMY.

Tho address is a fine composition, and its touching allusions to thn fate of Dadi, Basiinoxr,' Iiaiid, cannot bo road without interest. Wo tryike tha following extract* from its pages: " The Seminolo nation Is principally made Up of runaways (as their very namo implies) from tho lowor Creeks, and it ha* occupied that portion of Florida, the great majority not more than twenty year*, and nearly- all not more than thirty years. The Mieknsukles, the most ferocious, relentless nnd war-liko‘of ull, joined the nation in 1819, when' driven beyond tho Suwuiineo by tho operations of. Ganernl Jackson. Even nt. that date, wbon tho Florida* were first ceded to the United Stntes, it was represented that they were reduced to great extre mities fir want of tho moans of subsistence, Tho scarcity of game wa* tho ostensible, cause, hut tho true nno, doubtless, must be found in their idle and vicious habits, being averse to the cultivation of thn soil. As Spain hud in no wa^ncognised theanIn dians when Floriduwascedeunt hcc.amo necessary, as with oil tho Indaa tribes, to enter in a regular, und’rstnnding with the Seminole.*, nnd this led to the treaty of Fort Moultrie in 1823, hy which a cer tain portion of tho peninsula was solemnly secured to them, which, ol course, they never afterwards could bo expected to surrender but with tiieir own eonsent.

" The land ofthe free and the home of the brave." As a striking proof that the American people ore still truo to the glorious principles,that overwhelmed, and completely defeated the concoctors of the Alien and Sedition Laws, and tho leaders of the Hartford Convention, we mny refer to the late great victory of the democracy in tho city of New York. An old, yet true adage, says, when “ rogues fall out, honest men will yet their own," and *o it is in this case. The N. Y.

[Foe the Southern Spy.] Mr. Editor.—Legislative mercy seems tube pro- duslivcof ivnfitlevent*—murderers tiro t'ec'ognized ns the peculiar subject* of leeislntivc onnetments—and crime increusesin twofold extent.

If the offence ho ward r, bloody, aggravated murder, for God’s sake, for the sake of our common country, nnd for the snko of suffering humanity, let the guilty offender be slain ucrording to law—let him suffer death. Are we, in these days, more, humane and more lenient than in the days of Moses? at which period of the world, “ blood" was required “ for blood.’’ Is it not also true, thnt tho first murderer that over existed, was cursed with nn awful curse, which rend, red him tho peculiar object of hatred among men the remainder of his days ? Ar.d yet, tho murderer is, in thi# our day, hy tho influcnccof friends, and the power of his purse, turned loose among us, with nil his guilt about him, ready far the commission of deeds n* " black ns. hell." Juryman, let no childish sympathies swerve you from the discharge of those duties, which your coun try require* nt your hands—let justice reign nnd nil tongues be silent.
