C. M. Clay's Speech

vve insert me remamaer of Mr. Clav' speech this week, to the exclusión of niany shortcr anieles. But there has been a great cali for it, and we did not venture to abridle it. It is a singular fact, thot while the Whigs nre praising C. M. Clay as a consistent slaveholding abolitionist- just such ns one os they like- they are all afraid to puWish his speech, es. Does this look as lbough C. Af Cl was right in his assertion that "Libertv is th soul of the Whig paf tyl'? We are informed tlmt the Tnbune even has pnblished only purtion of this speech, carefully omiUinffhw testi-nony to the growth and excellence of the Liberty party! Is this the moasure of n8 maff nanimity? In some olher Whig papera.it has been inserted as an advertisement, the Editora being unvvilling to publish t on any othcr terras, The Chemung Whig, in answerto some strictures of the Albany Patrioi, on this narrow-snindedness, offers to publish thi speech, or the snme nmount ofolker abolí, tion" matter, if the Patriot will publish a"a much of Whig docnments. This course of the Whig press, in excommunicating Mr.Clayt writinge because he speaks for Liberty, wilt soon drive him froni their ranks. Look at Mr. Clay's position that Congrees has no right to admit a Slave State into the Union. " All the slavery in the new Slave States has been established by act of Congress, contrary to the Constitution. If they can malee slaves tbero, as they have done,they can vnmake them. Consequently, according to the Constitution, slavery can only legitimately exist in the seven original slave States. We shall examine this position at length hereafter. We now commend it to the attenlion of those who (hink for themselves.
