 knights, wended their way into hoosler-Hand as far as great Indianapolis, to beat up the quarters of the lazy hoosers, but they proved a li!eless mass of insensibiity, to the great Harry of the West We have, however, the consolation to believe that the expedition was fortunate in all again reaching home-none having died by eating too much beet, or drinkink toe much whiskey; and the Clay presses were not slow or moderate n announ- cling the complete success of the expedition undertaken and fitted out by Mr Clay. The most glowing descriptions of the steamer Ashland, and of her gallant crew of thou- sand knights, pressed upon every ear. Nay. we were told that wherever the chief set hls foot upon tlie land, (he very earth was made to shake with the thunders of applause issu- ing from the myriads of happy and devoted buckeyes, to Clay and whigery-that democ- racy was dead and buried i'll the buckeye and hoosier States-that Corwin was to be Gov ernor by fifty thousand-the whole Leglsla- ture whigs by like majorities, while Shannon and the democrats would soon cease to be known-that Bigger and his party would carry the hooser State, bv at least twenty five thousand. and that Clay would be esl- dent by exclamation. How is it? Why, Corwin is beaten, Bigger is beaten. anl then whole forces are cut up, horse, foot. and daa- coons; and how Clay will come out. remans to be tried So far, however. 90 good. But before he is President. think he has an ac- count to settle with his God and his country for thus interfering with the local politics O sister State. It seems that Shannon and hls party, wearied and irritaed by Mr. Clay and his partisans taking part with the abolitionists against them, have determined to let the peo- ple of Kentucky feel the weight of the re- snonsibilitv of Sae's interfering with the elections of a sister State; and that since voul political leaders. consisting, in part, of Gov ernors that have been, and President tha will be, (if the people say SOL have evineef such ambitious solioitude for the success o the abolitionists in Ohio, that they have giveI us what Corwin and his party promised te do-a repeal of their law against negro steal ing.

 This evil has MT. Clay's ambition brought upon the sisters. Ohio and Kentucky. From the time of the passage of the act, there was peace between the citizens of the two States and time would have rendered etfectual. the kind and liberal spirit of Ohio, in checking thieves. But the law is not repealed one year, before these sisters are threatened with border war. Bodies of negro thieves have taken shelter in Ohio. and the peace and ter rtorv of sovereign Slate.has been violated hv armed Kentuekians entering into Ohio ready to commit war and hloodshed.

That like scenes will again be enacted. none can doubt; and, before Cor and my country. pronounce tho Ashland expedition accountable for all the i'll feelings that may he kinaled between the citizens oi both States. and for all the loss of life or pro- nertv that shall result from the repeal ol thf Ohio act against negro stealing. And. attei efIecting the repeal of the Ohio negro hill II the manner I have stated, by which the peo- ple of Kentucky can alone look to the acts of Congress and the Federal Constitution tc protect them against robbery and mureler ant MT. Clay and his followers urging you, my countrymen, to sacrifice yor last hope, the Constitution of the United States.

 Int short time, as have before intimatet to you, Mr Clay will, through the Missouri compromise bill, provide for you Congress in both houses, of emancipators-a Congres: that will declare the negroes free in the Dis trict of Columbia, and then, by an act of Con eress. declare the slaves free throughout thu length and breadth of the land, as being con trarv to the laws of God, and the spirit O the constitution. A mere maiorlty-a single vote--can pass such an act; and if yonr Pre- sident shall be four years loafer, or divest ed of a veto on such act, what becomes O your slave vote in Congress2 and what be comes of your slsve property! B" not de ceived, fellow-citizens Think not that speak to you as mere visionary. Just a certain as Mir Clay gains the Presidency, ht effects his amendments; and as certain as ht does, civil war and dissolutionol the Union or radical change in our government, take 1 place. am here reminded that Mr. Clay 1 has given assurances to the South, that ht Is opposed to abolition. But, ] ask, has h disavowed what Prentice has said3 Has ht disavowed what Cary has said Does ht disavow what the editors of the Tribune say of him Does he disavow what the New World says of him? Does he unsay wha he himself has said in favor of abolition amagine not. It is easy for the most tho rough paced emaneipator to abuse the aboli- tionists, because they believe that the propo- sal of the abolilonists to mix and marry black and white together, injures the cause of universal emancipation. On this head, have only to refer to the speeches of being whose name will not mention, as he is a degenerate son of patriot father.

 This individual, it will be recolIected, ar raigned George Thompson, the British emis- sary to America, for not doing all he might have done to effect the emancipation of our slaves, before the assembled abolitionisis of the British dominions, at the city of Glasgow. He charged his eo-worker in abolition with doing rreparable injury to the cause of the poor slave in America, by his attempt make the white and black races amalgamale and marry together, He advised the British and Scotch abollionists to rally on the Coloniza- ton Society, assuring them that they had be-
