THE CoNTRAsT.--Ihe Er- Secretaries, Clay and Eaton.-The friends of MT Clay are making great effort to produce a politi- cal excitement against the President, because the late Secretary of War demanded the usu- al satisfaction for an insult offered to him by the late Secretary of the Treasury. For their consideration, we publish the following parallel, exhibiting the couduct of MT Clay which they justified, and that of Major Ea- | ton which they now condemn: MT Clay challenged Senator for words spoken in debate.

 Major Eaton sent challenge to an adver- sary for an insult transmitted in writing, and, as it seemed, purposely given to provoke it. MT Clay was provoked by taunt, calling him 6lackleg.

 Major Eaton by wanton attack on the character of his wife.

 MT Clay was in the high office of premier when he became the challenger.

 Major Eaton had not only long before re- signed his office, but retired even from tenn porary employment in it, before he sent his challenge.

 MT Clay violated by his course, the free dom of debate, which is under the guarantee of the constitution.

 | Major Eaton rebuked licentous invasion of his domestic privacy, as private man, and an attack on his own honor and the repu- tation of his family.

 NIT Clay was retained in office by MT Ad- ans, and is now urged by the friends of both, claiming to compose the orderly, moral and religious portion of society, as the most pro- per person to fill the Presidency. Major Eaton is not retained in office, is not a candidate for oflice--and yet those assum- ing to represent the |" orderly, moral and rel- gious," would visit his sins on General Jack son, who, far from permitting the public officers to violate the good order of society, has promptly inquired into every offence of the sort committed by any of them, and has dismissed from office, those who have been engaged in the deeds which the examples of Messrs Adams and Clay countenanced, and which the friends of the latter would still fur ther recommend by advocating his elevation to the Presidency.
