The Boston Courier and other organs of Mr.
Webster are commending in terms, the above philo
sophy of the inimitable Joel: to Mr. Clay, in conse
quence of the insidious stab aimed at bis old friend
and compeer, Mr. Webster, in his late violent and
vindictive letter to the Fayette county, Va. Clay
club. The Richmond Whig swears lustily that Mr.
Webster has fallen from grace, and denounces him
ns an arch apostate and traitor, Col. Webb of the
New York Courier and Enquirer, swears equally
lustily that tlic Richmond Whig is at least fifty
years behind i the age. The Poston Courier chimes
in and denounces "gallant ‘’Harry of the West” as a
very "drab and scullion in the striels.” In view of
all this, Mr. Webster may indeed repeat the signi
ficant and emphatic enquiry made in his celebrated
Fatiucl Hall speech. "Where shall I go.”
Below we append an extract from Mr. Clay’s let
ter to the Fayette eounty Clay club, and appeal to
every liberal and high-minded Whig, if he does not
blush when he recollects the “virtu / is and illustri
ous men who have filled the efii c of Chief Magis
trate of the Union” and contrasts their high bearing,
wit lithe virulence with which Mr. Clay has entered
the canvass for tile Presidency,
“Considering the youth of our Republic, and th P
virtuous ami illustrious tun who have ti1!..,1 the of
(iec of Ciiief Magistrate of the Fnion, it is painful in
the extreme to behold such an example of i'tter
cuVDO.vmkmt of all the obligations of niiXOR, of
duty an I fidelity. But, far iro.n allowing that de
grading fart to throw us into a state of apathy ami
despoil lencv, it ought to stimulate every American
freeman to redouble his energies in rescuing bis Go
vernment from the impure hands into which it lias
accidently I'dleo. Against Mr. Tyler no exertion is
necessary. He will soon retire with the contempt
and amidst the scoffs of all honorable men. Our
elforts should he directed against those who first sc
<lu I and then profit!/'I by him; those who, after
lining won him to their uses, now atfivt to shrink
from the coot vniuating association—those w ho, af
ter his complete identification with them, and at the
moment when he is appropriating to tin ir exclusive
advantage the whole patronage of the Government,
unjustly upbraid us with the failures of measures,
the adoption of which was prevented by his perfidy,
and their countenance and support of him.”
Plave the Democratic party ever elected a man to
the Presidency or Vice Presidency, upon whom they
have found it necessary to exhaust the ela sic vucab
u'aries of Billingsgate and Wapping in denouncing,
as the Whigs have Mr. Tyler.
Remember Harry, that there is such a thing as
pitch, which, "as ancient writers do report, doth
deJiU."

ing' omseif under this morsel ofnnliqua
ted sapience, we veniure to advise Mr.
Clay to be a little more frugal of letters
for publication, or to adopt a style some
what less vituperative and bitter than
that in which some of his late replies to
invitations have been written. Billow is
one written to the Clay Club of Fayette
county, Virginia, which it appears to us
is entirely wanting in that sort of dignifi
ed forbearance, that'should characterize
the language of a statesman, who is a
prominent candidate for the Presidency
of the United States. Admitting fill
which Mr. Clay says of Mr. Tyler to he
true, and admitting that all winch he
insinuates in respect to others, whom he
lias not natned, is deserved, doe; it com
port with the character of Mr. Clay, and*
with the position which he now occupies
before the people, thus ‘-to fall a cursing
like a very drab, a scullion?” Wesup
jaise it would require no glio t from the

Clay recommends that all “our efforts
should be directed,” although h ■ Ins not
designated the individual or individuals,
otherwise than as those “who first sedu
ced” Mr. Tyler, “and thou profited by

In a late work published at Paris, says the Wash

existence of man and of society in harmony with the
laws of the universe, the. authot Mr Alph. Ride,
says :
“Slavery’s great fault is in the name. In France
and in England, workmen and house servants are
more unfortunate, more dependent, than any negro
slave. 1 resided more than eight years in the slave
section of the United States. I have compared the
condition of the slaves in those States, and in the
West Indies, with that of the Workmen of Life, Ly
ons, Rouen, Amiens, St. Cuenti.u and Troyes. 1
beheld the misery of the latter, their known depend
ence, and despite my prejudices avainst slavery, I
was s ion convinced, that as regarded its bearing on
the physical constitution, material happiness, dc
vi lopeinent of itelligence, tranquility of mind, and
perfection of the arts—slavery was preferable, and
would produce far superior results to any afforded by
the pretended liberty of French or English workmen.”

Agreeably to appointment, on Tues
day last, the citizens of Charleston began
to assemble at the Circular Church to
honor the tribute to be paid to the
memory of this illustrious son of South
Carolina. “It was an impressive sight”
says the Rambler, “to see men of all
ranks and persuasions, and political sen
timent*. mingling as brothers, and step- i
ping side by side along our streets. We j
noticed with satisfaction that there was
no military display.
“The* slirill clarion anti the wry-necked fife
Frightening the aisle from its propriety,”
had no association with the deceased, and
could lend no solemnity to his burial
scene in Charleston. The subdued tones
of a few well modulated instruments of
music, wese sufficient on the occasion to
stamp the funeral character of the pro- I
cession—to regulate the measured tread,
and to touch with additional feeling each
sorrowing heart!” The House was tilled
to excess, and the anxiety to catch the
thrilling sentiments of the master of elo
cution, was intense. This feeling, we
learn was fully gratified. The Mnlogy
has been pronounced by competent judg
es, well worthy of becoming a model in ;
this species of composition. The man
ner, for which this orator is so much
distinguished, together with the beauty
of the composition, rendered the effect
upon an audience, capable of apprecia

The N. \. Courier it Enquirer of
Wednesday, gives the following account
ot the last attempt ot tiie great swindler
to escape from prison.
JVluuroe Edwards again.
This notoiious scoundrel has again at
tempted escaping from Sing Sing, but
this time his plans were laid in such a
manner as evinced his determination to
sacrifice human life, rather titan be foiled
in his attempt, and had they not been
discovered every soul in the hospital of
tite prison must have been burned alive, j
The details of his plan as communi
cated to its, are so characteristic of the
man, that we give them more at length
than wo would under ordinary circum
stances.
On Thursday, J. W. LFnondlb -
idem of the Commissioners, was at the
prison, and some of the convicts made
known tiie stet that there was a conspi
racy to tire the prison an 1 escape. As
this was a story very commonly got tip
by convicts either to teaze the keepers,
or to make capital for themselves, little
attention was at first paid to it, but on
receiving additional informati in, the
prisoners implicated were searched, Ed
wards being among them. On him were
found a long sharp pointed knife, a pair
of spurs made of leather with shoe tacks
for the rowels, a heavily loaded leather
thong and a quantity of loco loco match
es; also letters written with a pewter
plummet and on wrapping paper from
itis co-conspirators. Tins occurred on
Friday, and all the details of Ins plans
having been made known, the keeper
made his dispositions to thwart them. It
appears that’he has iwo correspond, uts
in this city, (who are known to the olii
cers) and they were in the practice of
Ibaaing letters for Edwards in the win
dows of the shop where he was'at work,
which are accessible to any person at
night. The spot at which the letters
were to be left was designated by a coil
of flue wire, which the prisoners left on
the windows. Tiie party outside by
feeling at the different windows, would
come across the wire, and there leave
the letter. The plan arraugt and was to
have a s'oop out in Tappan Bay. The
conspirators were to fire the prim, and
in the confusion which would be crea
ted, the parties on the out-i le would
come in as if to assist, and carry off the
convicts, who were to be landed in Rock
land county, where they would steal
horses and make their way off.
The main difficulty in currying out
this, was to fix definitely the time. This
was final 1\ arranged in this wise : a num
ber of grains ol'win at and corn were to
.be left on one of the windows—each
grain of corn to signify a week, and the
wheat a day. Tiie plan was then to be
carried out on the first night when a high
south wind was blowing, after the -■ :*pi
ration of the weeks or days and ignaLd by
tlie corn and wheat. Tic: object of wait- j
ing until a south-wt. t win 1 was blowing i
was, that when the coopers’ shoj g which •
are low*wooden buildings, and which il |
was’intended do fire, were burning, the j
wind would blow the flam >s direct;y on
the roof of the Chapel and Hospital, and j
the inevitable consequence must have
been that every one of the convicts in
the hospital must have perished in the
flames,
The wheat and corn were left on tiie
window, hut on opeqiug the shop door
in the inorntnjf, the \vind scattered theni
alxnit so that it was impossible to know
the exact number left, and thus this plan
was foiled. Tliey next determined-to
fire the prison on the first day of a south
west wind, and seize the sloop which
belongs to the prison, and after crossing
the Lay witli her, sink her, and make
their way into die mountains. On Fri
day this’ sloop ns luck would have it
came from New York, and in tiie afier
noon a high IS. \V. wind was blowing.
Fearing that the attempt would he made
that night an extra guard was put on,
and three kegs of powder were carried
into the chapel, so that if it should catch
fire it would he blown up, and commu
nication thus cut off from the Im pital j
and prison. The sick convicts were .al
so so arranged that their beds could be
rolled oil - from danger at a moment’s
warning. Friday night passed Over, and
all had remained quiet, and in the morn-j
ing Edwards was brought into the keep
er’s room, where he at once began to beg
and made a full confession of his aecom
plices. After hearing*his story, Ur.
Lynds informed him that he was now
too late, that all the men whom he wish
ed to bet nty had been before Rand with
him —that they knew all about his coil
of wire, the sloop, the wheat nnd corn,
and in fact every thing, .Ur. Lyinls thou
spoke to him for some time, showing him
how utterly futile it was for him to lay
any plans for ercape ; that he was sur
rounded with spies ; that every thing he
said or did was known, and in fine, that
there was not a single convict in tiie
whole prison who had not abetter chance
to escape than himse'f.
Finding every thing thu , effectually I
discovered and all his plans foiled, Ed
wards began to beg mo t piteously for ,
mercy. lie was reminded, however,
that he had played his game with a full
knowledge of the stakes at issue, and
having lost, he .ought not to expect to
have the stakes paid back. IIL conduct
in begging so for mercy, wh m i’ was
evident that he intended to sacrifice the
life of anv person who should offer to
stop him, and when ho had laid plans
which would have resulted in the cer
tain destruction of some ten or more sick
men, was so thoroughly contemptible
that he was hardly thought worthy ol
punishment, mid but for one thing he
would as it was escape that. This was,
that a few days ago a gentleman irorn
Louisiana, while on a vi'tt io the prison,
saw Edwards and stated that he knew
his mother ; that she h id been leit ail in
dependent fortune, but hv the villainy of
(her sou site was now reduced to absolute
want.
<>» liefiririjf f!.L la t reruaik, Edwards
i covered his face with his hands, mid
flowing his ht'ad ,-is the tear;-, came to his
eyes, he said, “ I.ynds, I deserve to
die : I know Ido ” As this was the first
exhibition ofileeling: he h;.d setn on the
part of Edwards, lie determined to see
what effect tlii> would have on his future
conduct, lie was accordingly allowed
to escape without punishment, and if he
really has any teelinsr, the remembrance
of his mother’s sufferings, broiiL-ht on by
his own villainy, will cause him many
nights of sleepless remorse.
This second attempt of Edwards wa
planned with an acuteness worthy ofthe
matt; and but for the fact that all around
him .are ready to betray every movement,
there ts every probability taut he would
yet accomplish his ends.
