Are these personalities? Do they make quita

Of whom i» this said'/ Of a common eaitiff?
Some felon who is languishing his days of banbh-
moot in some fitting employment in the peniten*
tiary? Or ot some other felon who has perished
by the oord'
Why, no. These charges are made by Mr.
Holden agaicst Henry Olay, a United States
Senator from Kentucky, and the then oandidate
of the whig party for the Presi ien*y.
What attack had old Harry Olay ever made OH
Mr. Holden, that he was “compeUed to resort to
these personalities in self-defence?”
Were they true? We have evidence that they
were not, which if not satisfactory to Mr. Uolden,
will not be to any one else.
This evidence is, first, A Eulogy written and
pubUshed by Mr. Holden on this same Henry
Clay; in which the very oppwite of these qoali-
ties are attributed to him. A part of which
Eulogy was original, and a part borrowed from
E. L. liulwer, whose language Mr. Holden em
ployed for the occasion as the vehicle of his praise.
The second piece of evidence is the following
obituary notice ot Mr. Clay after his death:
•‘He was a most commanding orator, chivalrons aad
manly in bis bearing, devoted alike to bis eotuilry aad
his friends, and patriotic, as we believe, in bia far-
poses and motives as a public man. If lie erred, we
believe he erred honestly.
“No waning of fire; oo paling of ray;
But rising, still rising, as paasing away;
Famed gallant Eagle, thou’rt buried in light,
Ood speed thee to heaven, lost star of our nigb'l**
Raleigh Standard, July %d and 1th 1B52.
The facility with which Mr. Holden disporta
praise or censure, marks as unequivocal aa eooes-
tnoity of piluotpio u« taiout. Tf he be a fish that
swims with ease in clear water, it oannot ba
doubted that his qnalties are equally adapted for
muddy. Indeed, in this latter element he maj
be said to be his own superior; for in tiie former
he borrows his fins; in the latter he unquestionably
ustjs those which nature has provided for Lim.
We shall pursue his “opinions of men,” to
detect if possible his “eschewal of personalitiea.”
Raleigh Con/edetaU.
1 jS'currtVj/ of Cotton, Threatened.—Mr. Mc
Henry, author of the “Cotton Trade,” is stated
by the London Index to have written a letter to
the Standard, in which he says that the total
stock of cotton iu Europe and tbe Federal
States on 1st January, 1804, amounted to but
2,000,000 ot bales, ot 400 pounds weight eaob.
3f this stock the Federal States possess 400,000
bales, leaving but l,f'.00,000 for. Europe. Of
these 2,000,000 bales, tii-sevenths are of a quali
ty 80 inferior as to be useless for all kinds of
manufactures, unless with the admixture of ^a
large proportion of the better sorts, which it is
impossible to obtain. Such is the supply. As
to the demand, it is sufficient to observe that lu
1860 the manufacturers on both sides of the At
lantic apparently liseu up 6,000,000—reaHy bat
4,500,000—that is, only the latter quantity wu
taken bv people using and wearing c^;ttoi goooa.
Supposing the wants of the world to be w^
they were four years ago, and deducting 300,000
bales that were sold every yt-ar in a mnnufHCtured
I cond tion to supply the Confederate States, tne
deficioucy will be 2,200,000 bales—that is,
the conf^'jiucrej who dopend upon Eoropo and
Yankecdom for thrir cott tcooJs will fill that
far short of getting thoir upp'y
In the mean inu the >s* r#"s of the ni'inu'aotM-
iug di.strictri, already ;iently appalling, is in
creasing at a portoutou!^ rate. In the town of Pres
ton alone twenty eight mills had closed in
January, and the number of persons entirely with
out work in conscijuence was 11,299. Thetntiro
number of persons recoiving charitable a.=iBis*aoce
is 26,000, all becau-ic the mills have ^^pped for
the want of cotton. ' To such a condition has the
“o«iutr:ility”ot L'^rd Palmerston reduced
the country. Of the 2,0'>0,000 bales a'luded t',
a little more than half came from India—that ie to
Divide, or J)ie.~Th\s incident is related by a
letter writer in tbe Potomac army:
On one of those biting cold mornings, while
the armies of Mead> and Lee were staring at each
other across the rivulet known a.s Mine Kun,
wlien moments appeared to be hours, and
(lays so near at hand seemed to be the deadly
irtrifo, a solitary sheep Walked-
run on the rebel side. A rebel vidette fired ana
killed the shctjp, and, dropping l is gun, advanc
ed to remove t^e prize. In an instant, he waa
covered by a gun in tbe hands ot a Union vide to,
