Now, what is Mr. Clay's creed, “developed in his recent letters?” In his letter to Joel Branham, dated 23:1 July, 1843, he says: “I voted for the Tariff of 181C. 1824, and 1832." In his letter to James A. Meriwether, dated October 2d, 1843, he says: •* You are right, so far as the record is con cerned, in your statement, that I did not vote for j ly; another proof, if any indeed were wanting, that 'low pri 395,833 bales compared with 1041. Of the new American crop only 20.U00 hales were received last jeir against 100,- 000 iroj-oned at the same period in 1842. The export con sisted of77.000 bales in 1843; of 76,860 in 1842 and of 56,100 in 1641. The stock on Uie 30th December last, was 633,900 bales, against 430,600 at the same period in 1642, and 429 • 8o0 bales in 1841. The total deliveries for home consump tion (min the ports ofihe United Kingdom in 1843, were 1,. 390,988 bales, being an average weekly delivery of 26,730 bales, against 22.920 bales in 1842, and 22,032 bales in 1811 It is however, estimated that spinners hold 30.000 bales more than they d.don the 31st December, 1842. and this quantify must therefore be deducted from the apparent con sumption of the last year. The prices of the mudling and lair qualit es of American at the e ose of last month were nearly the same as the quotations at the tame period of 1742 but the middling qualities of American were l(d, Brazil Id, Egyptian 1$, and Su-at fd per lb. higher than on the 7th Ju- jj; which was the extreme point of depression, the stock iu Liverpool being then 964,370 bales.

OBITUARY. " In the midst of life, we are in death. 1 Died, on the night of the tat of January, in the 53d year of liia age. after a severe auack of the Tyler Grippe, the celebrated steed, generally known in these parts by the engaomen of “OLD BALL." His many virtues and no ble quahties have often been commented upon and gene-al ly advocated by his afflicted swner. The citizens of Perry can all certify how often they have been delighted, as this noble son of the Turf exhibited to their astonished eyes his majestic form, aad played in auch striking grandeur over their streets. With a disposition entirely amiable, he is entitled to the good will and kind remembrance of every citizen. Forbearing in his nature and kind in hi* feelings, his generosity has too often been imposed upoh. With a high tense of honor, he has ever acted by the proverb, that -honesty is the best policy.’’ An instance, however, is on record, from which it app>ars, that his unfortunate owner, some few years ago. having placed him within the tempta- aion of a corrupt thief, he was unthoughtedly seduced into the path of error; but, like the forlorn prodigal he return ed,confessed his error, and was pardoned. The principal, however, in the offence, received letters of recommenda tion to the Manual Labor School at Milledgeville. and is now doubtless a pupil of reform. Since that event, the sob- jeci of the present sketco ha* preserved a uniform conduct, and a character like Ctcsar would have his wife, * above suspicion ” He has left a large circle of friends and ac quaintances to mourn and regret their loss—and to profit by site moral, he has proved that " all roust perish." P- ]The Democratic Review. Tha January number of the Democratic Review is filled with articles extremely able and interesting. It is embel liabe with a line engraving of the noble Lewi* F. Lino, it it a faithful likeness. The Brat article is upon the State Debt* and treat! the subject in a powrful manner.. An article « pon the subject of the * Democratic Presidential nomination,” presents that question in its true light. We can't see how •ny candid, i-«->lieent man can resist the conclusions at which it arrives. If we can get space, we shall make liber al extract* from it. J. 8. Dwight has an article upon the character of Haydn, which is full of interest. Judge Carle k>n of Louisiana, gives the results of "t «cnt ramble a- mong the peasantry of Knglrnd.” The condition of the slaves of the South, so far is the comforts of life are concerned, is immeasurably bettor than that of England’s peasantry, if Judge Carlcteu's story in bat half true, and of its fidelity there can lie no doubt. The "Tale* of the Prairie.” by L. Leslie, are continued from the December number. There is a vert instructive review of Tennyson's Povtns. Nathan iel II iwihrone contributes "The Christmas Banquet." Whit tier furnishes some noble lines to the memory of Channing. There are several other fine pieces of poetry, but we have n >t space to allude farther to the commits.—Concord Pa- I iot. ecs of the raw material tend to an extraordinary develope ment of national industry and to a corresponding increaso, it Is to be hoped of national prosperity.” In referenre to the future they state, "it is the extent of the coming crop which under the present favorable appearance of trade,must be the pivot upon which the future is to turn. It is the grea ter or less degree of truth which will be found to exist in the statements made upon this point wlilrh must finally de cide the whole question. It is certain thatnnr present large stock may make us rather less dependent upon coming sup ply thnn usual; but still at the existing rate of consumption, this would soon he absorbed. If the crop should prove not more than 1,750,000 bales, as many suppose, even in adding’ to this 70,000 bales of 1844—45, the quantity to be chipper to this country, assuming that f>e States will require 330.000 bales, and the eontinent 550.000 bales, cannot exceed 920,- 000 bales which added to the quantity tow on hand in the ports, and deducting 100,000 fur export, would only leave 1,303,000 bales for the consumption of Great Britain in 1845 Such a state of things needs no comment, though it is dear that, long before we onld be reduced to this extremity, pri ces would have risen so much as to diminish the consump tion and to establish a balance between it and the supply.” IRELAND. Nothing of interest occurred at the weekly meeting ofihe Repeal Association on Monday. Tom Steele took the lead in O’ConneH's absence. The rent for the week ending De cember 3. was £995. The great Limerick dinner to Mr- Smith O’Brien, to eel- ehrate bis accession to the repeal cause took place on Mon day se'night. Mr. O’Brien proposed, "Daniel O’Connell, the Liberator of Ireland.” Iu acknowledging the compliment. Mr. O'Con nell uttered a good deal like former remarks about the pro- gres of Repeal. He alluded to the trial, with a kind of an ticipatory protest against the verdict. He mingled exortations to tranquility with the usual mys tification about war; teeming to threaten pessive hostility in Ireland The iTIcihoilisX Conference. On Monday of last week, the day appointed for the meet ing of the Annual Conference in this t'.iiy, it was opened at ike Lyceum llatl. Bishop Soule presiding. Owing to the heavy rains, and the impassable condition of tne roads, the number of Clergymen in attendance for the first few days, was not large—although by the close of the week, there wis a very respectable collection. It is matter of wonder that mmy at them were ab e at all to reach Columbus, for it rarely occurs, we imagine, that suen an oward circum stances accompany the meeting of this religious ood.v Since the opening of the Conference, there has been di vine sersice, regularly, every evening, at the Methods I Church—and on Sunday, the Baptist Church was also uccu- pie I by Ministers of the Methodist persuasion. In the morning. Bishop Soule officiated at the Methodist tnd Mr, Wightraia, of Charleston, at the Baptist Church. At 3 o'clook in the afternoon, Mr. Parks occupied the Metb odist, and Mr. G. F. Pierce the Baptist Church—and at Light the congregations in the two churches were address so by Dr. Pierce and Mr. Evans.—Columbus Times. Solomon Cohen. Esq. who has been on to Washington at a special agent, in endeavour to procure for the Post Of-, lice Department the establishment of a da ly steatn boat Mail between the cities of Savannah and Charleston, has return *d home, and reports to the Committee appointed at a pu!> 'he meeting of the citizens of Savannah sometime since, his entire failure in the object of his mission. In his letter, sta ting the steps taken by him to accomplish the object, be says: ■'During a fortnight’s slay at Washington.

We think not. We should sup C e Mr. Wise equally as objectionable as Mr. Proffit—in d more so.—Balt. Rep.. SOtA last. IVcw-York Money Market, Week ending Jan. 20. Money since our last notice, has become considerably more in request, and the quantity of paper offering at the banks is muck increased. The inquiry for money results from the continuance of the large operations in cotton, with out corresponding shipments, and from the disposition of the banks to prepare for making a favorable statement for the quarter ending on the 31st inst. Considerable diversity of opinion exists as to the future course of the money market; some looking with confidence to a still greater inquiry and a consequent advance in the rates of interest, and others for a reduction on the 1st proximo to the former mininum rates. A change in the course of the cotton trade, which cannot, we tlnnk.be long delayed, would, of itself, make a sensible difference in the inquiry foi money. It is now held to a considerable extent by city acceptances, which the banks have discounted, and by doing which they have been ena bled to keep up their lines nearly to the m ark. As this pa per ma'ures, and therotton is shipped, the banks receive back their money from the proceeds of the sterling bills drawn against it. and nnless paper to an equivalent extent arises from other business operations, they must again re sort to some other mode of employing their means. In our view the general businessbf the country has not been suffi ciently extended to cause any great demand for money, and it now exists onlv from the operation of extraordinary causes, and must cease when those causes are removed. The indisposition of the banks to loan upon stocks has produced an unfavorable effect upon this description of se curities. and prices have generally receded. Those of the sounder descriptions are less affected than the more specu lative ; the quantity of the latter in the hand* of dealers be ing larger and loans procured upon them with more diffi culty.
