Cassius M. CLAY AND ms ENrsnPius1:.—Our »
readers are probably aware ofthe enterprise re-
cently started in Lexington, Ky. by C; M. Clay,‘
in the publication of an independent,anii-slavery
journal, called the True American. This wasa
noble enterprise, and enlisted the "sympathies Of
the whole North. \Ve' have, with others,- traced
its progress,, (not as areader) but as one who
eels, and given it our beartiest and best wishes
for its permauencyand success. Our suspicions
however, have kept pace with our ho,.es, and "we
inn t confess, we are not surprised to find it
hedged with diffi_culties,and at length suppressed.
Our “fears were founded upon the opinion, that
the requsite amount ofdiscretion,to give perina-
hence to such an enterprise, would not be exer-
' cised b. Mr. Clay. Those fears are fully realized‘
The reader will perceive by a correspondence in
tnother column,between Mr. Clay and a comtnit-
tee of the citizens of Lexington,what is the state
bffeeling of the parties. A subsequent meeting
has been held, before which Mr. C’s. an tver was
read, and a committee of sixty persons was ap-
point d to repair to the office. take down the
jress. box it up, and send it off to Cincinnatii‘
ivliit-.h was promptly carried into effect, while
lllr. ‘ lay in the meanti ne was confined l)ysick-
iiess We. therefore conclude that the True
Americanis no more. How much be-tter,a course
of calm, manly argument wotild have b on, Mr.
‘C-lay perhaps may now, (and we think by his
last commutiication to his fellow citizens.) docs
see. His intelect was of that order, that he
might, gradually have moulded public senti-
merit in Kentucky, which had already beaan to

For the Noi'walk Gazette.
MR. ED1TOR=——lt is due to_the public that the
communication in your paper of last week, from
Dr. Hill, should not pass unnoticed. Where the
facts and parties are known, none ofthe inten-
ded effects will result from thatarticle. For the
sake ofothers, a few facts and comments seem
necessary. A
Dr. H. admits that he heard but one ‘discourse.’
His charges and insinuations are made from
wlrat was ‘told’ him by others. The public can
judge ofthe value and correctness ofthosc reports,
and ofthe candor of certain htarcrs, (including
Dr. H.) by one item, whether ‘written down on
the spot, and told word for word,’ or otherwise.
Among the asserticns,boldly and positively made
was the follow’ng, in reference to one of my
prayers. (for itseems that the prayers were also
reported,) “Mr. I-lawley prayed for l/((2 poo,-
llicl//ot1t'.«'z dct;t'l..-”l "1‘.’t"tI,’ replied the individu-
al to whom the statement was made. ‘is a fair
‘.7-“I”-’C1.’7I0ll of l»"t'c rcyrorls offilr. IItzit'/cy’s fCC[t77‘€.5'.,
It‘ ita fair specimen ofthe materials from which
the Dt".s communication was composed.
Another f.ict_,— one e.\'pi“ession which troubles
the Dr. and his friends, and whicli he parades in
his letter, was e.\'plainetl to him. by giving the
connection ; and this was done by one whom he]
is "proud to number among his friend-r.” Said:
Dr. II. in reply, ‘Ifthat is so, italters the mat-t
ter materially.’ Thishappencd after he wrote;
his last letter, and before it was published; and]
yet he made no alteration in his statements, and
gave the public no intimation ofaiiy sttc.i facts.E
And this is the man who charges me with ‘seek-K
ing to make a false itnpression’ by ‘.-. ithholdingt
ripen for freedom, and prepared the way byjttdi-
cious maiiagement,to have carried all hearts with
him. and emancipation would have followed
certainly and almost irresistably, and that too at.
im very distant day. The great evil. in our
opinion hasbet-n. intempertve zeal, which has
been the bane ofthe whole anti-slavery move-
ment,antl we suppose must continue to be, until
men learn wisdom.
\Ve learn from the Brooklyn Advertiser that
altered notes ofthe denomination of tens. pur-
porting to be on the Conneeiictit Bank ofBridge-
port. are in circulation. They are probably al-
tered from a broken Michigan note, and are made

There has been a deal nftincei-tainty and erro-
neous assertion about the result ofthe election in
the 6th, (late Speaker \Vhite’s Congressional
district) of Kentucky. There were three candi-
dates in the field,—an Owsley whig,and a Letch-
er whig, and a loco. It has been decitled, stic-
cessively in favor of each candidate. The state-
ment we made last week, that the delegation
stood S to 2, was based on the presumption that
a whig was elected. It may, however heother-
wise. The’ latest accounts were favorable to
Martin, loco.

A'r'i‘iatti=T_t:ti—Roi3i3i~:nv.—On Friday night of
last week a bold attempt was made to rob the
Steamboat Carriage of the Norwalk Hotel.—-
The driver, a colored man, had been over in the
iieighborhood of what is euphoneousty called
Pinrbgttt, to carry passengers, and while on his
return through the swamp on the turnpike, he
was metby two fellows, one of whom took the
horses by the bridle, while the other commenced
unstrappinga trim‘: on the back pirt ofthe car-
riage. The driver though tnuch alarmed, yet
in the exercise ofmuch self-possession, seized a
wrench lying in the the carriage,.and taking de-
liberate aim, declared his determination to shoot ~
them down, when it seems they thought it pru-
(lent to make tracks. This is the story of the
driver, and l\’Ir. Stevenson assures us that he
does not doubt the man’s word.

A Universalist meeting h tuse is about being

what was iriclispciisilile to a corrc t kno=.vlcd gc
ofthe case,’ and who thus mingles the p:tthc.ic

the character ofliis neighbor,’ etc.
One sentence iti his communication, as unfoun-
ded as it is scui'rilou:=, related to scripture refer-
cnces iii the 1"-lctliotlist Discipline. I had said
in effect, that the authors ofthttt system did not
pretend that its p-:"CLlil2ll‘lilt,‘S were supported by
quotations from the Bible, atid that the Book
contained no such quotations. The grossest lan-
guage was applied to me for that remark. At-
tention was 2)l.ll‘tlC'L‘tl in the public street by the
shout, “z/taxis-ct lie .' ” Contrary tomy usuall
custom, I referred to these things at my next lec-y‘
lure, atid instead ofacltiiowlcd«'_~ing any ‘misiake"
as Dr. H. iiitimatcs,I proceeded to give the
pron/'fi'omtliebook. After exaiuitiitig several
passages, and showing that they had no bearing
on the subject in hand, I retnarkctl that there
were lint two other scripture references in the
Discipline. and these two were the only ones
which had even the .«-cmb.’ancc of a special ap-
plication to the pecbliarities of that systcin.-—
One ofthese is found in count-ciion with ‘Bond
Societies.’ Confess your faults one to another,
and pray one for another, that ye may beheziled,
Jamcs v, 16,’ I sail that no iunn would have
a face to pretend that this passage had any spe-
cial application to any denoiiiitiational peculiar-
ities; unless it might be the Mortiiotis or other
fanatics, to prove their miraculous gifts.’
The other passage was under the head, ‘Duty
ofa preacher.
“3, Converse spairingiy, and conduct yourself
prudently with women, lst Tim. v, 2.’
‘I had said,’ I continued, that the Iliethodist
system did not pretend to rely upon scripture-
quotations in stipport ofits peculiarities; when
10! we read ‘confess your faults,’ etc. ‘Coti-
verse spairingly,’ etc. and the Vvry streets are
made to ring with the cry of ‘Falsehood ." ‘lf
tlieyclajni,’ I continued, ‘that the peculiarities
oftheir system render this passage peculiarly
appropriate to them,lwill not dispute Willi ti‘.-cm.’
This is the entire ground for Dr. Hill’s charge of
a ‘low and ungentlcniatily insinuation.’ Upon
whose brazen front thatcharge is indelibly stam-
ped, let an iudignaiit cotiimutiit_v, whose sense of
But 1 must be more brief.
As to my ‘knowingly making a false impres-
sion,’ when I't.'lt.‘l‘l'lllg to J. We.-‘lc_v’s etitire pub-
lintttion, where is the ei;z'(le.-icc that he ever chan-
ged his opinions on that point.’ Wliat if he did
change his opinion, after the contest was deci-
ded ?v Many a tory ‘changed his opinion’ amidst
the frosts of Nova Scotia. llavitig declared liiiu-
self‘uo republican,’ttiid that while he lived, the
people should have no share in appointing even
‘Class leaders and stewards.’ \Vhere is the evi-
deuce that he ever ‘changed his views?’ IfDr.
I-I. ‘I,.T’ft0IL‘.'>', what Mr. ’\‘v'csley, ‘being dead, yet
speaketh,’on this subject : are we to infer that
our Dr. ‘knowingly made a false impression,’ by
itiiimating ‘aclizinge’ in Mr. \\"csley’s ‘views,’
where no sttc/i c/ttutge of views is made to appear
whatever may be their ‘change’ in his language?
‘Did you not try to make your llCtlI‘t,‘l‘S think
we objected to him, (\Vhitehead,) because he
was a Quaker, when you knew that was not the
ground of our ohjcctioti '9’ l have tlieprouf that
that itle/ttical objection was made by the Di"s
two leading reporters, and by another leading
Methodist, and l have yet to learn, after ncpcatetl

W/to knowingly made a false impression,’ or
made it wit/tout knowing who.-tlier,_it was true or
false ? _ _
As to Mr. Bridge’s ‘recantation,’ what did he
recant? ARNOLD ‘recanted’ after he had fought
and bled for the principles of’7ti,—but did his rc-
cantation change the nature ofthose principles ?
or the nature of his previous testimony ? _
It is not necessary to notice other points.—~
The community can judge for themselves, from
these specimetis, of the ‘candor’ which ‘could
not resist the conviction, that’ I ‘intended to
make a false impression,’——a candor which is
exercised in circulating through the medium of
Advocate says that there were out on the occa-
siou,some five hundred or more. The Stamford

reason to suspect that the occasion was the less
delightful. ____________________
