•easily has prevented the reparation of that great national injustice. But I iorbeur, I will not longer trespass upon ' your patience or further tax my own voice, impaired by a speech of more than throe hours’ duration, which professional duty required me | to make only a few days ago. If I have been at all successful in the exposition of the views and opinions which I entertain,l have shown— -Ist. That the present war was brought about by the annexation of Texas and the sub sequent order of the President, without the previous consent and authority of Congress. 2d. That the president, being unenlighten ed and nninstructed by any public declaration of Congrcss,as to the objects for which it ought to be prosecuted, in the conduct of it is neces- ' sarily left to his own sense of what the na tional interests and honor may require. 3d. That the whole war-making power of .the nation, as to motives, causes, and objects, i» confined by the Constitution to the discre tion and judgment of Congress. 4th, That it is, therefore, the right of Con gress, at the commencement or during the progress of any M ar, to declare for what objects and purposes the war ought to be waged and prosecuted. sth. That it is the right and duty of Con gress to announce to the nation for what ob jects the present war shall be longer continued; that it is the duty of the President, in the ex orcise of all his official functions, to conform to and carry out this declared will of Congress, by the exercise, if necessary, of all the high powers with which he is clothed; and if he fail or refuse to do so, it becomes the imperative duty of Congress to arrest the further progress of the war by the most effectual means in its power. Let Congress announce to the nation the ob jects for which this war shall be further pro tracted, and public suspense and public inquie- i tude will no longer remain. If it is to be a war of conquest of all, or any part of Mexico, Jet the people know it, and they will be no longer agitated by a dark and uncertain fu- I ture. But although I might have forborne to express any opinion whatever as to purposes and ob ects for which thewar should be continu ed, I have not thought proper to conceal my opinions, whether worth any thing or not, from the public examination. Accordingly X have stated. 6th. That it seems to me that it is the duty | of our country,as well on the score ofmodcra- j tion and magnanimity, as with the view of avoiding discontent at home, to abstain from •«eking to conquer and annex to the United States, Mexico or any part of it; and especial ly to disabuse the public mind in any quarter of the Union of the impression, if it any where i exists, that a desire for conquest is cherished for the purpose of propagating or extending •larery. 1 have embodied, Mr. President and fellow citizens, the sentiments and opinions which I have endeavored to explain and enforce in a series of resolutions, which I beg now to sub mit to your consideration and judgment. [Mr. Clay here introduced the resolutions which we have heretofore published.] After reading the resolutions and handing them to the Secretary, Mr. Clay concluded by apo logizing for the length of time which he had trespassed upon the meeting, and thanking the j ladies and gentlemen, most cordially, for the honor done him by their attendance on this occasion, and the profound attention with which they had attended to him. Note by the Editors. —The speech was often interrupted by bursts of applause, and both at its commencement and conclusion, there was tremendous cheering. Augusta, (Georgia. SUNDAY MORNING, NOV. 28. ~ present to our readers to-day Mr. I Clay’s Lexington Speech. It is pronounced , authentic by the Baltimore Patriot. We pre- 1 mine therefore that it has received the care ful revision of its author, and that every pro position contained in it is deliberately laid .down and submitted to the American peo ple. We invito a careful examination of this speech, reserving our own comments for the present. Mr. Clay’s hopes for the Presidency hang upon the issues made in his speech,—? Much of his fame for statesmanship and pat riotism is involved in it. Wc do not think j that it will acquire for him additional reputa tion as a statesman. We confess that wc think that the civic wreath that his patriotic | labors in times past has won fqr Blrq, wljl suffer some tarnish from this electioneering effort. Such wo believe will be the verdict of the American people. Jack Frost made his appearance in our city yesterday morning, for the first time this season. New Books- Mr. Richards has laid upon our table, from the publishers, Harper & Brothers, the follow ing Books : Part 4th of their beautifully printed and cheap edition of the life of Henry the Fourth, complete in four parts. This work is an in tensely interesting history of the stormy and eventful reign of that- brilliant monarch, and it written in the lucid and graphic style of its prolific author, G. P. R. James.

Also, Almance, No. 104, Library Select Novels, by a new author, It is a story of the times of the Revolution, Tho scene is laid in North Carolina.

This -work contains much pleasant reading and in formation. Thanksgiving-- Both branches of the Legislature adjourned Over on Wednesday till Friday morning, in order to observe Thursday, recommended by t emselves, as a day of Prayer and Thanks giving. The Baltimore American of the 25th inst. says—-None of the telegraph lines leading from this city wore in working order yesterr day, the heavy rains having so completely • tturated the wires with water, that they were unfit for service. Late from Vera Cruz: We received yesterday from our correspond dents the Picayune offico, an .extra giving us three days later intelligence from Tera Cruz. 1 here appears to have been qo later arrival from the City of Mexico, and we are left in Uncertain* yas to what tape tJio train loft the pity of Mexico. Cicn. Patterson, with bis train, had orfived 1 ■ ■ nil ■! ■ ! ,1.11 at the 1 unte Nicionale on the 4th Nov cm - ber, without meeting with any difficulties fiom Gueirlloros. He had been waited on by a messenger from Jeranta, who gave him to understand that he was tired of war and wished a safe conduct to Vera Cruz, where j he wished to resume his clerical garb, and be come a good citizen. He was informed by Gen. Patterson that he could proceed to Vera Cm? but without escort, and that it was his (Gen. P’s.) determination to hang every guer rilla he caught. The Arco Iris of the Bth, publishes a letter from its correspondent at Julapa. Wc trans late a portion of it: 1 have a letter from Querctaro of the 20th of October, [this is two days later than otrr mer direct advices.—*[E/s. Pic, ] from which I learn that there were seventy-one deputies , then in the city, although some of them were ill. But it is known that several others were on their way thither, and it is believed that there would very shortly be a sufficient num ber there to open the session. The first busi ness would be the election of a provincial 1 President of the Republic, for which post the following gentlemen were coudidates: Sr. j Pena y Pena, Gen. Herrera and Gen. Almonte. < They write me that news has reached them of designs formed in the city of Mexico by the stock-jobbers, those bloodsuckers of the nation, I who perceiving that they cannot now intro- j duce a monarchy into Mexico—for there is nobody who would be willing to purchase the ( war, and govern the nation without its sym pathies—propose to form two great States and to annex them to the American Union. But as this design of these vampires is only to enable them to enjoy it] peace the fruits of their rapine, the nation will look with indignation upon these schemes, and will rather be at onoe annihilated than voluntary consent to the loss of its independence which has cost so much * blood. The paper called the Razonador, cer- I tainl yby contradiction of terms, is the one ! which maintains the opinions of this new party, and is paid for it by these men of the stock . market, the pricipal editor being notorious among us for his anti-Mexican principles. The Arco-Iris gives the following statement of the forces which the Mxicans now have in ! the field. At Querctaro under Gen. Bustaimente 1,000 Santa Anna’s army now under Rincon 4,000 The garrisons of Mazatlan, La Sonora and Aca public 4.000 In the State of Tabasco and Chiapas 2,000 Under Urrea, Carrajal and Canales 2,000 A brigad- at Polosi commanded by Filisola. .3,000 At Toluco under Penny Barragan 2,000 In the State of Oaxaca 1,000 The whole force of the guerrillas from Vera Cruz to Puebla 3,000 Alt makes a total of .31,000 Gen. Taylor had not arrived at Mutamoras at last accounts. He Mas to leave Monterey on the Sth inst. The health of Matamoros was improving and the fever fast disappearing. The following items we extract from the Matamoros Flag of the 10th inst. : Another Rumor. —The rumor among the Mexicans now is, that four of the Mexican States (San Luis Potosi, Zacetecas, Durango, and one other not named) have declared in fa vor of the monarchical scheme of Paredes, and united, have preferred him 18,000 troops to I carry out his designs. A son of Itnrbidc is fixed upon to be raised to the throne, and European intervention is said to be confident ly calculated upon to place him there and maintain the authority of the crown. The Mexicans in this quarter are said to be very hostile to this rumored movement, and to ex press themselves as being ready to join with the troops of the United States to prevent ; such a consummation. Prospects of Business.—Two gentlemen, merchants of Zaceteces came passengers yes terday on the steamer Tom Kirkman, bringing , with them two tons of silver, principally in bars, from the mine of Zacetecas and Durango, received there in exchange for goods. Other merchants from Saltillo, with one hundred and fifty thousand dollars, came passengers on the same boat, A good portion of this metal will doubtlpss find its way legitimately into thp pockets of our merchants, which will be sensi bly felt by all classes of people hero.

Nov. 10 Sand’s Sarsaparilla- Light, the beautifier of the maternal world, is no less necessary to the vegitable than the animal kingdom. It gives coloring and perfume to the leaves and flowers, and their medicinal properties to the herbs and plants and roots, which science has converted in the means of relieving suffering and prolonging life. Ligh; nourishes them—light dis closes them to the eye of the botanist or pharma copist—and light, the light of experimental philos ophy, enables him to produce from them the most i valuable remedies and lestoratives. In this clas. we claim a prominent position for Sands’ Sarsapas rilia. The tree is known by : ts fruits and this pre paration by its effects. We only condense into a few words the voluminous testimony of thousands when we say that, favored by the smiles of Prov idence, it is an unfailing remedy for every species of ulcerous disease, from scrofula, that cruel mutil ator of the human form, to the common boil.— Eruptions, also, from erysipelas to the ordinary pimples and blotches which so frequently disfigure i thejmost attractive, features are easily removed by a few bottles of this invaluable antiseptic. For further particulars and conclusive evidence of its superior value and efficacy, see pamphlets which may be obtained of agents gratis. Prepared and sold, wholesale and retail, by A. B. AD.

This may certify that in August of this present year, I was take p with bleeding at the lungs, and had in all seventeen different spells, bleeding on an average from half a glass to half a pint at a time, I applied lo one of the most skillful physicians in the country, and received but partial relief during his attendance. I was all this time suffering with a severe cough, spitting of blood, Ac. I tried various ! remedies but all without success, until, by the ad- ; vice of my friends, I tried Dr. VVistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry, and to my great relief, in three days time ray cough was so loosened that I raised with perfect ease, the pain and soreness haying been entirely removed from my stomach and lungs. I am now taking my second bottle, and niy health is rapidly improving.

Nov. 24 31 €o m m c v {i a I, LATEST DATES FROM LIVERPOOL NOV. 4 LATEST P4TKS niOM IJATKK, OCT. 31 CHARLESTON, Nov. 27.—• Colton. —The mar ket since our report of the 20th inst., may be said to haye bppn brought to a stand, so little has been done in the article. On Saturday last operations were almost entirely suspended, as purchasers were unwilling to go on at the advance reported that morning, which the somewhat extensive ope rations—when compared with the limited supply on salc»Thad established towards the close of the previous week. On Monday we received unfavo rable accounts from the other side, per the steamer Acadia, and throughout the week just brought to a close, the C’ptton market has been in a very lan guid condition, owing to the derangement in mo netary affairs, tpid the contention that has been carried on from day today among dealers in rela tion to prices. Purchasers have been contending for a beayy epneession on the prices just prior i to the arrival of these advices, while holders, in consequence of the very light receipt* and the limi ted supply on the market, have refused to yield to the extent of their demands, and hence the few operations, which, during the week do not exceed 800 bales, and how lopg the latter pan maintain their present position remains to hq spen. Os the sales noticed above, some 300 bales w ere sold yes terday, about 120 bales of which were fair quali ty and brought /|c. The transactions of the week have been at extremes ranging from 6£ to Tj. the saner price for a lot cf 50 bags cn Saturday l*3t. It r is impossible in the prescqt position of affairs to give I quotations. The receipts since our last foot up 3646 bales. Thert h»ve been no transactions iu | Long Cotton since our last. Corn. —The receipts continue light, and former prices for country Corn have been sustained. The business done in thas inscription has been confined to small parcels. There was an arrival of 2400 bushels new North Carolina, the first cago that has reached our market this season, and was gold in the neighborhood of 72c. per bushel. Received per Rail Road 2783 bushels. So/t.—-Received since our last 3100 sacks, w hich were sold on arrival at $1 0G per sack. The supply on sale is in few hands, and is held at prices rang ing within quoted rates. Freights. —There are several vessels loading for both Liverpool and Havre, they make however, slow progress in completing their cargoes. We quote to the former |dfor Cotton in square bags and to the latter sc. There is very little freight offering for coastwise shipment—and tbe quotations of the previous week are almost nominal. New York 50c per bale; and 37£c. per tierce for Rice; Boston O-IGths for Cotton; and $1 per tierce for Rice. NEW YORK, Nov. 24.— Colton. —The market j for this article since our last has continued depres- ! sed and unsettled, and since the arrival of the Aca dia, prices have further receded £ of a cent per lb. i —we reduce our quotations accordingly. The con tinued openness of the sea>on, with a promise of a 1 full average crop, the unfavorable accounts from | abroad, and a stringent money market, all tend to i induce dullness, and as for some time past, prices continue to decline, they being now £ a cent per lb. lower than at the departure of the Washing- | ton, and fj a | lower than at the sailing of the Cale- j donia. The sales since our last are 2,900 bales, of which 1,300 bales were Upland and Florida, thus : Inferior, none ; ordinary to good ordinary, a 6£c, middling to good middling, G| a to fair, 1A a 7£ ; fully fair to good fair, 8 a 81c ; fine, none.
