AS specimen of the delicate wit with which
Mr. Clay entertains his southern audiences, we
quote the subjoined passage from friendly report
of his recent speech in Savannah. The assurance
of this venerable jester of seventy that he did
mean to bear away, even if he could do so, any
of the fair daughters of Georgia whom he saw
before him." is only surpassed in good taste and
feeling by the introduction of his own domestic
relations for political effect Such subjects, or
persons, scarcely appropriate to the hussings,
or courthouse green. Mr. Clay pays no great
compliment to his audiences, in supposing that
they can be capivated by such respectful illusions
to their daughters, to his own truly 'sestimable
WIFE,"


"Mr- Clay inquired several times.whY T" the few de-
lat" should seek TO poison the public mind against
him. He brought with him neither war ,pestlence,
nor famine" He did not mean to bear away, even if
he could do so, any of the fair daughters of Georgia
whom he before him; he had estimable wife at
home. with whom he sufficiently blessed already.
Mr. Van Buren and himself had long been accustomedto
interchange of cvties he had had the pleasure of
dispensing the hospitaes Of Ashland to the cxPresi
dent and he should be happy to extend similar reeep
tion to that gentleman's friends here"
