Henry Clay 8; James Buchanan.
Several of our subscribers, says the
Harzford Daily Courant, have expres-
sed a desire to see in our columns the
following powerful article from the pen
of Prentice, of the Louisville Journal.
Having been intimate with Clay for
many years and active in the political
campaign referred to, his remarkable ar.
ticle challenges a candid perusal from
me" °f a!1P3ltiBS- We presume very
few old line Henry Clay Whigs will ul-
timately think best to vote for a man so
deficient in manly candor, so fearful of
hurting himself, and so willing that a
noble opponent should be crushed down
under a weight that it was quite in his
power to remove. Reverse the situa-
tion! and fancy Henry Clay summoned
in like circumstances, as a witness
against Buchanan ! Clay would not
have rested on a cunning and guarded
negative, but he would have shouted
out. to all the world, that he would not
see a political opponent unfairly treated,
and that he would not himself lend a
shadow of support to what he had rea-
son to believe an unfounded charge.-
Henry Clay’s spirit was not of the pru-
dential and selfish hue, that has always
predominated in Buchanan’s character.
But to the article:

From the Louisville Journal.

Henry Clay and James Buchanan.
We hope that what we are now about
to write will command the attention of
all honest and honorable men and espe-
cially of Old Line Whigs, the former
supporters of Henry Clay and the pres.
ent reverers of his memory. The boast
has been made that the Old Whigs will,
as a general rule, support Mr. Buchanan
for the Presidency. We shall see.

All of our old politicians have a vivid
recollection of the leading events of the
election of President by the House of
Representatives in the early part of
1825. Mr. Clay was then a member of
the House, and he cast his vote and in-
fluence in favor of John Quincy Adams
who was elected over Gen. Jackson and
Mr. Crawford. Mr. Clay was subse-
quently selected by Mr. Adams, as his
Secretary of State. At a later period
Mr. Clay was charged by his political
enemies with having soldhis vote .to
Mr. Adams for the Secretaryship, and
we all know that this cruel and mons-
trous charge, though abundantly refuted
in every form in which refutation was
possible or conceivable, involved, to a
great extent, the ruin of Mr. Clay’s po-
litical fortunes. But for that charge,
he would afterwards have been elected
President of the United States almost
by acclamation.

Foremost among those who charged
that Mr. Clay’s vote was given to Mr.
Adams on account of a promise of the
Secretnryship of State was Gen. Jack-
son. The General gave the name of
Mr. Buchanan as his authority for the
truth of the charge. Mr. Buchanan
had held a private conversation with
him on the subject, making such state-
ments as left no doubt on the subject in
the General's mind. In fact the General
did not hesitate to say, after that inter-
view, that Mr. Buchanan had come to
him with full authority from Mr. Clay
or his friends to propose terms to him in
relation to their votes, that is, to pro-
pose to vote for him for the Presidency
if he would promise office to Mr. Clay..
Of course Mr. Buchanan was called on
to put.iuto the form of a letter what he
knew upon the subject and what he had
stated to Gen. Jackson. He according-
ly wrote the letter which afterwards be-
came famous in the controversy. The

.letter was most adroitly written with a
view to relieve the author from the ex-
cessively painful position in’ which ‘he
stood. He dared not say that he ever
had any authority from Mr. Clay or his
friends to propose terms to Gen. Jackson
yet be carefully so shaped his language
as to afford Mr. Clay’s political enemies
a pretext for repeating the atrocious cal-
umny against him. He expressed his
own belief of that bargain and corrup-
tion story. He said, " The facts are be.
fore the world that Mr. Clay and his
particular friends made Mr. Adams
President, and Clay Secretary of State.
The people will draw their own infe-
rence from such conduct and the cir-
cumstances connected with it. They
willjudge of the cause by the efect.”

Mr. Clay and his friends regarded Mr..
Buchanan’s letter as exculpating him
and them from the charge of having
authorized Mr. B. to propose terms to
General Jackson in relation to 4 their
votes, and so indeed it did. And yet it
was so cunningly written that the

whole of Mr. Clay’s political enemies
throughout the nation considered it and
treated it not as a vindication of the
Kentucky statesman but as “confirma-
tion strong,” of the accusation against
him. Thus the whole calumny origina-
ted in Mr. Buchanan’s statement to
General Jackson, and when the author
of the statement was required by Jack-
son or his organ to write it out in the

. shape of a letter, he so performed the

appointed task, as while shrinking from
any direct confirmation of the impres-
sion he had previbusly given to General
Jackson, to afford a pretext to‘ the whole
Jackson party to assail Mr. Clay as a
traitor to his country, and there was not
a Jackson newspaper or a Jackson poli-
. tician in the nation that did not treat
Mr. Buchanan’s letter as evidence of
bargain, intrigue, and corruption be-
tween Mr. Adams and Mr. Clay.
The specific charge, as already stated
which was made against Mr. Clay, and
which Mr. Clay was cited as witness to
prove, was that Mr. C._liad proposed to
make Gen. Jackson President if he liim-
self could be Secretary of State. This
charge, involving the inference that Mr.
Clay did vote for Mr. Adams for the
promise of the Secretaryship, was the
charge by means of which the party
that Mr. Buchanan then acted with, and
ever afterwards acted with, bioke down
the greatest and best‘ man of his age.-
And now, fellow countrymen, we ask
you to mark the final development of
facts. The real truth is, that, instead of
Mr. Clay’s suggesting to Mr. Buchanan
during the pendency of the Presidential
election in the House of Representa-
tives in 1825 that be and his friends
would support General Jackson if he
could have
State under him, Mr. Buchanan’ himself
actually sought Mr. Clay, and inthe
presence of a third gmiilernan, explicit-
ly declared to him, that, in'the event ‘of
the latter, he would have the" Secretary-
ship. Mr. Clay’-s intimate personal
friends often heard him -make this -'s,t‘ai.e-
ment in the after years of his life, 5 uiid
we, with half a dozen others, li‘eard'him
say inuthe. _Prcsidentia‘l campaignof 18344
that he”wo'iild"not‘—-be willing. to die
, without leaving it on record. And‘ he
didfnot die without leaving it on record:

A few years ago Mr. Calvin Colton pub’
lish_ed the Life of Henry Clay, in the
preparation .of which he visited Ash-
land and had free access to many of Mr.
Clay's private papers. He devoted a
considerable portion of his book to the
old bargain, intrigue, and corruption
story, and Mr- Clay wrote out one pas-
sage of it with his own hand. That"
passage was incorporated in the volume
word for word as it came from the ven-
erable statesman’s pen. Let the Amer.
ican people read it and ponder upon it.
Here it is :

Some time in January, eighteen hundred
and twenty-five, and not long before the elec-
tion of President of the United States by the
House of Representatives, the Hon. James
Buchanan, then a member of the House, and
afterwards many years a Senator of the Uni-
ted States from Pennsylvania, who had been
a zealous and influential supporter of Gen
Jackson in the preceding canvas, and was
supposed to enjoy his unbounded confidence,
called at the lodgings of Mr. Clay, in the city
of Washington. Mr. Clay was at the time in
the room of his only inessmate in the House,
his intimate and confidential friend, the ‘Hon.
R. P. Letcher, since Governor, of Kentucky,
then also a member of the House. Shortly
after Mr. Buchanan’s entry into the room, he
introduced the subject of the approaching
Presidential election, and spoke of the cer-
tainty of the election of his favorite, adding
that he would form the most splendid cabinet
the country had ever had. Mr. Letcher asked
how could he have one more distinguished
than that of M1. Jefferson, in which were both
Madison and Gallatin? Where would he be
able to find equally eminent men? Mr. Bu-
chauan replied, “he would not go out of this
room for a Secretary of State,” looking at
Mr. Clay. This gentleman (Mr. Clay) play-
fully remarked that he thought there wae no
timber there fit for a cabinet omcer, unless it
was Mr. Buchanan himself.

Mr. Clay, while he was so hotly assailed
with the charge of bargain, intrigue and cor-
ruption, during the administration of Mr.
Adams, notified Mr. Buchanan of his intention
to publish the above occurrence, but by the
earnest entreaties of that gentleman he was
induced to forbear doing so.

This passage, we repeat, was written
by Mr Clay's own hand. We learned
the fact from an eminently respected rel-
ative of Mr. Clay.’ The great’ Ke'ntuck-
inn who had "borne the weight of bitter
calumny for more than twenty years,
and seen his highest political hopes
crushed and blasted by it, did not choose
to submit to it longer out of tenderness
to the reputation of his old political ene-
my; and the deepest regret felt by his
best friends is that he submitted to it so
long. Mr. Buchanan, it appears, might,
when called on for his testimony in
1825, have testified that Mr. Clay, far
from having signified that he would
support Gen. Jackson for the Presiden-
cy in consideration of the Secretaryship
of State, had positively rejected such a

_ 

all the Democratic organs were startled
by it. Mr. Buchanan was then no can-
didate for office, and on that account it
created a less powerful impression than
it would otherwise have done, but we
vividly remember the sensation manifes-
ted by the Democratic papers, especial-
ly those of Pennsylvania. We‘ copied
into the Journal an article from the most
prominent and influential of them all,
declaring, as several of the rest did, that
Mr. Buchanan must respond to and re-
fute the charge made against him or ex-
pect to be dispensed with by his party.

And we and hundreds of Whig edit-

ors called upon him and defied him to
respond while yet Henry Clay and R.
P. Letcher were living to meet any de-
nial or equivocation that he might put
forth. But he replied not.

Humbly he bore from the greatest man

then living _, upon the earth a-.publ_iahed
charge, which, if true, exhibited the
most irredeemable infamy on his part.

And now we ask the friends of Hon-

ry Clay, we ask the Old Line Whigs, we
ask all honorable men, we ask tbewhole
American _ people, what they think of
James Buchanan and how they mean to
act toward him. 0 what a shame, what
a burning shame, what an everlasting
shame it would be if the-American na-
tion, after having thrice rejected Henry
Clay from the Presidency on account of ,
8 charge of bargain and corruption on ‘
the alleged authority of James Buchan-
an, and all because Mr. Clay listened to
the earnest prayers of Mr. Buchanan,
the proposer of bargain and corruption,
and spared him for nearly the lifetime
of a generation, were now to elect that
same Mr.'Biichanan to the Presidency.
Truly it would be almost enough to
make a man sick of his species.

wrote to Mr. Buchanan upon the sub-

letter that he would not violate the
pledge he had originally given. Mr.
Buchanan replied, deprecating the pub-
lication and requiring the observance of
the pledge. The reply was made with
Mr. Buchanan’s characteristic cunning,
and we give it below entire.‘ One might
think, from the language of his letter,
that he had no distinct recollection of
the conversation with Mr. Clay, in Mr.
Letcher’s room, in January, 1825, and
yet that very conversation, exceedingly
emphatical as it was, had been, from the
very first and through all the ensuing
years, a matter of the deepest anxiety
and even agitation to Mr. Buchanan,
who, as Mr. Clay has testified under. his
own hand, had earnestly entreated that
it might not be given to the world.—
Here is Mr. Buchanan's letter to Mr.
Letcher.

Mn. BUCHANAN TO B. P. LETCHER.
LA1\'CASl‘ER_ June 27,1844.

MY DEAR Sm—I this moment received your
very kind letter and hasten to give it anon-
swer. I cannot perceive what good purpose
it would subserve Mr. Clay to publish the pri-
vate and unreserved conversation to which
you refer. I was then his ardent friend and
admirer ; and much of this aucientfeeling still
survives, notwithstanding our political differ-
ences since. I did him ample justice. but no
more than justice‘ both in‘ speech on Cbilton’s
resolution and in my letter in answer to Gen-
eral Jackson. .

.I have not myself any very distinct recol-
lection of what transpired in your room near-
ly‘ twenty years ago, but doubtless I expressed
a strong wish to himself, as I had done a bun-
dred times to others that he might vote for
General Jackson, and if he desired it become
his next Secretary of State. Had he voted
for the General in case of his election, I should
most certainly have exercised any influence I
might have possessed to accomplish this re-
sult; and this Ishould have done from the
piost disinterested, friendly and, patriotic mo-

ives.

This conversation of_mine, whatever it may
havebeen, can never be brought home to Gen.
Jackson. I never had but one conversation
with him on the subject of‘ the then pending
election, and that upon the street, and the
whole of it, verbatim ct literatim, when com-
paratively fresh upon my memory, was,’-given
to the public in my letter of 'August,'I827."——
The‘ publication, then, of this private conver-
sation, could serve no other purpose‘ than to
embarrass me, and force meipi-ominentlv’into
the pending contest-—_whicli'I desire tojavioid.

mention the fact, that, when it appeared

whose crystal face‘ is
“ The mirror where the stars and mountains view
The stillness of their aspect in each trace
Its clear depth yields of their far height and hue.”
One day while gazing upon "clear
placid Leman,” a Swiss peasant girl‘
placed in my hands a package of her
books, and in turning them over, there
fell to the floor a little poem, printed
upon..a'diiigy card. ~ My eye "eagerly
ran over the lines of the gem, (of which
Isend you a copy,) and which. recalled
my boyhood’s home and the wide repu-
tation of these sweet verses, though its
worthy author is comparatively .un-
known. This.ea:cerpt of American po-
etryihas been in turn attributed to
Whittier and a ‘number of other bards
(American and English) of merit; and
also it has been actually claimed by cer-
tain , at whose merit is somewhat
doubt ul.'. Ithas been ‘frequently re-
printed in England, and is set to music
by W_m. Vincent Wallace and other
composers; it has -been published as a
tract in Scotland, with appropriate scrip-
ture texts at the end of every‘ line, and
it is thus republished by the Presbyteri-
an Board (O. S.) of our own country.
I found it a few years ago in ‘one of the
books of the American Sunday School
Union; and in 1853, an English lady
residing amid the palm covered mount-
ains of Rio de Janeiro, showed me
"Speak Gently” as her most -precious
morceau of poeey, which she had car-
tied with her from the British isles to
St. Helena—thence to the Cape of
Good Hope--and finally its soothing
and mellifluous numbers cheered her
heart in that tropic clime wherel"eterual
summer dwells.” It however surprised
me most of all to find it in the centre of
Europe, loved and appreciated by a ro-
sy Swiss peasant girl. Its author is D.
Bates, Esq , now of Philadelphia, but
formerly of Indianapolis, Ia. Mr. Bates
isa worthy," hard-laboring clerk in a
broker’s office of the "Quaker City.”
He is‘ entirely self-educated, and it is a
wonder to us how he finds time in the
midst of those painful hours spent over

columns of bristling figures. to think
out and write down such beautiful and
heart encouraging verses as " Speak
Gently,” "By and By” "Monumental
Inscriptions"—or the longer and origi-
nal poem entitled "Lelia."

The best Remedy for cholera.
Dr. Blake’s Aromatic Bitters.

THIS Medicine is too well tested by the
wide-spread experience of the public, back-
ed by thousands of certificates, to require ar-
gument. These " Bitters” afford never failing
relief to the victims of Liver Diseases, Dyspep-
sis, Costiveness, Indigestion, Languor, Loss of
Appetite, General Debility, &c.,—such relief
as can be found in no other medicine. . The
undersigned has never heard of asingle fatal
ease of Cholera where the Bitters have been
freely used.

The “ Bitters” are composed of simple ingre-
dients, and are as harmless as they are effect-
ive. Agreeable to the taste, they may be ad-
ministered with equal safety to children and
adults. They are a delightful tonic, tending
to invigorate the system, strengthen the stom-
ach, purify the blood, and impart a vigorous,
healthy action to the Liver.

For cases of Ship Fever, Sea Sickness, Bil-
ions Colic, &c., the “ Bitters” are a sure relief.
Every ship and hotel medicine chest should be
provided with this valuable specific. and no
family should be without it, as it is in most
cases cheaper and more effective than a physi-
cian.

These “ Bitters” are a certain annihilator of
all prevalent " Spring Fever.”

 ONE of the most desirable resi- E

dences in the village of Norwalk, is offered for
sale upon very easy terms and ‘for much less
than its value,in consequence of the absence
of the owner. The house was built in the best
manner and of the best materials; is new and
most eligibly situatedupon the principal street
of the town. But a small portion of the pur-
chase money is required down, the remainder
can remain on bond and mortgage if desired.
For a genteel country residence, few places
can surpass it for beauty and desirableness of
location. This is an opportunity to secure a
comfortable home.-,seldom offered. For further
particulars apply to the Editor of theGazette.
