RACK-TO THE FIELD.’’ “The Combat TUickann—On ye Brave.’’ “There is a thing Harry which thou hast often heard of, and it is-known to many in our land by the name of pitch. This pitch, as ancient writers do report, doth defile, so doth the company thou keep est, —for Harry, now I do not speak to thee in drink, but in tears, not in pleasure, but in passion, nut in words only but in woes also ; and yet there is a vir. tuous man, whom I have often noted in thy compa ny, but I kn >w not his name.” P. Henry What manner of man an it like vour majesty I FalstatT. A good portly man, i’ faith, and a cor pulent, of a cheerful look, a pleasing eye, and a most noble carriage, and as I think, his age some fifty, or by’r lady inclining to three score, and now 1 remember mo his name is XVI ita.f, (Webster) if that man should be lewdly given he dereivi th me, for Harry, 1 see virtue ill Jiis looks.” — Henry IV. 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." Mr. Clay and Mr. Webster. The Boston Courier (Whig) Ur. \\ uhster s eonji d ‘dial organ makes the following commentary on Mr. Clay'* letter to the Fayette eounty, Va. Clay club. The comments and advice of the Courier'are ju -t, and might he profitably adopt 'd by Mr. Clay. It is a matter however between themselves and friends an I in which we are nowav particularly concerned, hear Mr. Webster's man of the Courier. / 'rum the Huston Courier. Mu. Ci.ay.—The adviceol’a fool, —it is said in some old proverb,—nuw some times be of service to a wise man. Shield 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 grave to tell who it is' against whom Mr. 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 him.” “Status of Mr. CMhoun.” The Columbia South Coroliuiun of Novo iiborDtii, says: — "Wo learn by a letter from Cincinnati, to the Bal timore Patriot, that the celebrated sculptor, Hiram Powers, oftho former city, new in Italy, is enga ged on n statue of Mr. Calhoun, for some of bis friends in this Slate. The writer says, on tne au thority of a letter from the sculptor to Ins brother, “On the completion of a statue of Mr. < alhotin, which will require about three months, the Eve [an I'lihorate w.irk previously mentioned] and the Nullificr,, will he sent over from Italy together. Tins latter statue is to be paid for by so.uc of the personal lYiemts of Mr. Calhoun in Ins own State, and is as large as life.”. We are gratified to learn from the New Orleans and Mobile papers, that the prevailing fevers are subsiding in those cities. The Whigs—ltAiik Tiariil’—ilenry ( Iny. It would lie amusing were it not destructive to all tii tiel in human stability and consistency, to follow the individuals and papers who now constitute the Whig party in their political windings, meandering* and circumvolutions, from ultra nullification to ad vocacy of a Protective Tariff Bank, Sec. Is it possible, can it be true that the bloody Nulli fies, the "blue cockade” men of thirty-two, “have fallen, fallen, fallen, fallen, fallen from their high estate, into quite tame, and submissive advocates of a protective tariff. It is pissing strange, yet no less true than strange. A few years since, Mr. Clay was their abhorrence, and a Bank and Tariff their abomination. Now the one is the God of their id da try, an 1 the land is filled with their peans of praise to the others, then, “opposition to a Natioval Bank laid deep\njt\ie elements of their party organization.” And bravely defying triumphant majorities, they boldly proclaimed their adherence to principle. And as if coming events had cast their shadows before they had inscribed on their banners, —“We shall! IV VAIN EXPECT THE RESPECT DUE TO COVStSTEVT I POLITICIANS, IE VVE BECOME THE ADVOCATES OF A I National Bank.” They indignantly denied any connection with either Mr. Clay or his Measures, as to Mr. Clay “none were so low as” do him rev erence. “We can never support an advocate of the‘Force Bill’--we cannot support ‘Harry of the West.’”— (i tr.nu Journal. They declared cncomp,ramising WAR against him. “Mr. Clay has identified himself with a course of policy on the part of the Federal Government, which is in our opinion no less unjust than injurious to the best interests of the South; against his views we have warred hitherto, and shall continue to war uncom piiom isiNOLV. ” —Sunthcrn Recorder. They declared their opposition to he one of Prin ciple. “The opposition which is made to Henry Clay by i the Mtate Rights Party, is one of principle. 'They have no predilections for him as President of the Fnit/’d States, nor b>ie for his political reed.

Tli/'v Contemptuously scou'ed the charges as false and rultculous. “As to the other charges of minor consideration, but no less false, viz: That the Georgia Whigs are in f.ivor of a Nation al Bank.

They were in favorofthe Force Bill, j and the doctrines of the Proclamation. They enter tain the opinion, that Congress fas power under the Constitution, to abolish slavery in the District of Columbia and the right—and is in duty bound to re ceive abolition p titions.” “He (Mr. Ci ty,) has recently hoisted the fia; of a Pi/ly Han!;.

In a late work published at Paris, says the Wash ington Spectator, entitled Slavery and Liberty—the 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.” Marshall it rtrand.

Lust evening, at about half past 7 o'- ; clock, the Penitentiary was discovered to be on fire. The work-shops, the steam- I entrine, and other buildings were totally destroyed. The stone building, contain- j ing tiie cells of the convicts, and several j other buildings outward the walls, were ! saved. Several atttetnpts have been | made, by the convicts, to destroy the j buildings by fire, as a meens of escape, j On this occasion there is very little doubt j that at ;tn attempt of the kind lias sue- : ceeded, though none of the convicts sue- | cceeded in escaping. These are all t lie ■ particulars I have learned for the present, j 1 have just been informed that the ; chastisement inflicted on some of the convicts’has induced one of them to dis- j close the origin of the fire.

Prs’ott’s Eulogy on Uiv Lite T'ngh S. L°Sare. 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 ting tiie worth of genius, deeply impres sive.- It is always agreeable to find any one turning from the errors of his way, and we were glad to see that the Richmond Whig had retreated from his attack up on our Colleges ; but, as if he was actu ated by some furor animi, against the domestic institutions of Virginia, no soon er does he let one alone, than another is tiie object of his assault. “ A writer in the New York Express nominates John Umucy Adams as a suit able person to fill the Vice Presidency. This is a matter we leave entirely to our Northern brethren, li they give ns ('lay i for President, they may choose their own man for Vice ; and provided he he a good j and true Whig, undefiled by Tylerisin, ! and above all suspicion of treachery, we ofthe South will go for him with ail our might—A 'atardity's Whig'. “We of the South go for John Q.

Are the friends of Mr. Clay prepared for this * We cannot, we will not believe it- The Whig sure ly forgot itself when loose words were indited ; they cannot be the expression of its deliberate intentions—if they are, and if the Whig expresses the views of the Clay party, then, people of Virginia, we-cal l upon you to cast them out from among you ; they arc not only your en emies, hut the enemies of all you hold most dear; they are prepared to sacrifice every tiling at the shrine of partisan fury, and in the madness of their zeal, to for get those interests which they arc most bound to protect.

Docs your mother knotv you arc out —us Congress —Butts I— Boston Post. 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. -V Eluadt-ri -j Io«!,i :J. Gilbert Burnet, after harm . i con rob bed of his watch and pur-* y a footpad, was obliged to exchange'coals with him, as the tine! took a strange fancy to his. Not long after, Bishop B iriiet put his hands into one ol the pockets of the rob ber’s coat, where he found his walch and purse, and in the other a considerable quantity of gold. If there is a man who may eat his bread at peace witli God and man, it is that man who lets brought that bread ont of the earth by his own honest industry.
