 yer before, at any period of the most bitter party excitement, has any public man of emi- nence so far forgotten himself, and the re- spect due 10 the people, as to apply such language to the head of the Nation. Yet this was done, at moment when he profess ed to feel a sort ofholy calm and tranquility, good will to all, and all earnest desire to re- nounce public life, and all it's tolls, provoca- tons and aspcrities

 Ii, as party leader, he has no friends none who can at all times approach him, or discourse with him, with an assurance of be- ing received and listened to with the courtc- sy which one gentleman and one freeman llas a ri9ht to expect from another, we may be assured that; as President, he would tole- rate none near him but the vcriest slaves and syeophants. As for inc humber and poorer classes of his fellow citizens, he has never been able 10 see in them any thing bu. inc matcriel of operatives ii' nfanufaetories. He is the champion of employers and capitalists, ol the old and the young aristocfacy.

 One who has so little control of his pas- sions and impulses, while out of power, and Is yet so eager to attain 1t, could hardly fail to prove despot il invested with it. He would, after all that has passed, regard his success as due rather to his own merits and persever- ance, than to the spontaneous good will of the people. He would look upon 1t as re- cantation by the people of their past errors, an humblng of themselves to his superior judgment and political wisdom. What use he would make of party victory, we may easily infer from the use which he so re- | gently attempted to make of it. In giving yeht to the pent Up wrath of sixteen years, he certainly would not spare enemies, and wo to any of his own party, high or low, whc had ever erosssd his path. Admitting that he would redeem his pledge of single term, he would still have his successor to appomt-some one to carry out and perfect his plans; and therefore, high in his favor and confidence, and ai offices would be be. slowed to that end. Those whonow may be speculating upon residuary interest in the whig party, and arranging future movements upon tie presumption of succeeding to Mr. Clay's Presidential mantle, should first inquire of themselves, whether they have ever given him any cause of dissatisfaction.

 man with such embittered feelings, de- spo;ie temper, and stnpendous projects, is hardly the Chief Magistrate to be desired by a people worn out with party conflicts. To the nation at large, he has nothing to offer, but u renewal of exploded schemes and stob- | solete ideas,n and of fierce exaspcrated party conflicts, such as have already shaken inc Union 10 it's centre. To mere party men, he offers, publicly and shameessly, division of the spoils He IS the first Presidential candidate who ever so far debased himself, as openly, aud in his own fiaine and person, to pledge himself to distribution of offices among his followers. This he pretends to justify, by saying, that 1t would be sslhe se= veres rebuke of proscription'--and he asks, significantly, ssWiio is to be justly rcproached with beginning prescription in this countryf" It must be obvious to every man of commc.. l sense, that this argument would justify retail. alton, dd iafaitani, until wretched scrani- ble for office became not only the necessity result, but main object of every Presidential contest. If revenge is good plea-and the lapse of time IS urged to confirm and strengh- ca feelings of vndictiveness, instead of ala laying thenl--there will never be a pretext wanting for prescription, or for the full and unrestrained indulgence of evil passions.- ''Ihe severest rcbuke of prescriptions" and the only efiectual one, would be for the peo- pie themselves 10 prescribe any man who held out such a lure to his pa~tisars.

 To the South, MT. Clay has literally notIl- ing 10 offer. The spoils of office have never been an inducement to party warfare with the people of the South, who, in this respect, may be proud of having rather pursued .sab- stractions.n On the other hand, MT. Clay's principles and plans are all in sympathy with the North. Yet, there never was time when the quiet of the country, if not the sal- vation of the Union, so urgently demanded man at the head of the Government whose principles and plans should, at least not be l in harsh discordauce with those of the South Her institutions are now exposed to a sysle- matic, perseyering and combined attack, both from foreign and domestic enemies-Eycry 1 day-every mail from E,rope-shows more strongly the necessity of rallying the patriot-

 ism of the whole American people in defence ol the South against foreign interference in our domestic affairs. No time more uinpro- l pitlous could be chosen for re-opening do- mestic dissentons, and stimulating unprinci- pied partizhns by | cry for the division of the spoiis; or, for entrusing the reins of Government to q politician whose opinions, schemes and political associations have here. telore been all with the North against the South and whose whole time and faculties are now absorbed in ncontriying means for se- curing and ndnlging in amere party triumph.

On Fri day, says the Post, another brother, William, was arrested in this city, for passing coun- terfeit bill in Quincy some time ago.
