Having bten an actor in many of the e j veirs which h ul a bearing upon the prospe rity & wellare ot this State, it is but natural that 1 .should take the deepest interest in the contrast ou have ptesented of its pres ent with its pit condition. In making this contra!, however, you have assigned too prominent a place to my character and serv ices. The great chang s which have ! taken place and the still greater that await Hons, when exerted upon a tree popula- pon a tree popu lion and upon a genial soil and climate. If my conduct, sir, has been surh as to de serve your approbation and tint of my countrymen, I have been fortunate indeed; and can truly say that my ambition has been satisfied.

Mr. Clay felt that it was imprudent 10 ask the u-itioa to s rip ite!fof the means devo ted by the Constitution to the discharge of its own obligations, when it had barely sufficient for th purpose; and he suggested various modes of g'-tung oyer the difficulty nd reconciling ihe public. In the first p'ace, he insisted that economy and re trenchment would enable the. Government to get along without the revenue from the lands, notwithstanding the de.-rea?e of ihe tariff from ear to year, under the com promise. Tne President ha shown that there must he a retrenchment of five mil lion, to keep within the Treasury receipts, including the revenue from public lands. Mr. Clay proposed, therefore, to cut deep er. He would not only give up fortifica tions, harbors, and light houses, road and canal bills, but, as he expressly told the Senate to day, he would reduce our skele ton of an army.. This would leave all our frontiers, from Florida round by the West, and our Canada borders, open to the incur sions of the smallest predatory party of an enemy. Mr. Clay would not only be ready to deal thus with the army, but he was willing to. sever our relations with foreign powers by calling in our ministers and agents abroad. Nay more, he was prepared 10 put down the new Mints, and abolish, besides, innumerable public offices, which he declared lo he useless, but did not spe cify. liesidcsal! this stripping of the General Government of its functions, Mr. Clay was ready to assist the Government in getting along without its ordinary revenue From the lands, by laying new taxes on Tea, CoiTee, Wine, and Silks. He would, in a wot d, do almost any thing lo help Mr. Jaudon, the IWings and Co. to protect Stale slocks for the foreign market. lie concluded his harangue by a most afTeeting. touching picture of the distresses of the States at the forlorn condition of trieir s ocks. Me spoke particularly, and most paiticularly, of Illinoisand Alabama. Nev er did we see so much sympathy lavished upon States. We marvelled at ihe change which had come over Mr. Clay in that re spect; f r we remembered w hen the peo ple of Kentucky were under the execur ' ; tions of the Hank of the United Scales, in 1819 and '20, that Mr. Clay was the will ing executioner, and readily and remorse lessly s dd out his neighbors' property on fi Ja s for .:old andsdver to the gieat usu rer, after it had carried every dollar of hard money out of the Sta'es confines. We should never have understood Mr. Clay's present pity for the States, and his former cruelty to Kentucky, if we had not reflec ted that his compassion is now for the States in their corporate capacity, and not for the people, who happen not 10 be in the power of the Bank or the Barings. The States cannot be put under execution; and. in fact, they have, or the people have, the banks and stockjobbers dependent on them; and hence it is that Mr. Clay is so sorry so very sorry. Globe.

According to the Louisville Public Advertiser, it provides for the issue of Treasury notes in appcaiance similar to bank notes of the denomination of S5 and $50, to the amount of gl,500,000--ha!f the sum in five dollar notes, and the other half in notes of fifty dollars each. The five dollar notes are to be made payable in one ye;ir and the fifty dollar notes in two years; the former receivable for State taxes in 1840, and the latter in 1841.

Census for 1840. The census of thi United States, to be taken during the pre sent year will be upon a more comprehend sive plan than usual. Hitherto it has been customary to enumerate the inhabitants -only, Ihe several classifications to sexes, ages, colors, &c. By the late act of Cori- . gress for taking the census for 1840, thb President of the United States was direct ed to cause the statistics of the country, relating lo Agriculiure, Manufactures, Mines, Commerce, &.c. to be collected, and nlso statistical information in reference to Education, The next census therefore will exhibit not only the amount of our population, but a No a complete schedule of the aggregate different property of the nation, ranged, under heads, and presenting at one view an accurate estimate of the vast resources of the United States in all the various de partments of industry and including the nu merous itemsof national wealth. Intcrreg atories, adopted to elicit information on all the topics embraced in the new plan, havo been prepared .to serve asformulus of sta tistical tables. Lit'le aditiohal labor or expenev will be incurred by this enlarged system of proceeding, since the same per son w ho would in the usual manner be eni ployed to take the census of numbers, ma very easily put such other questions as may ; be required by the pnsent regulation.

The usual opposi tion was apprehended, bo-h from the slavd and h?s caste, and preparations were mado' cither to guard against or overawe it; .but when the time arrived when the writ was served, he hailed the .officer as a delivrr-e.r-and his arrest as a delivery not only from the anxiety a d doultof mind which had continually hunted and oppressed him, but from the siate of want in which his temporary uncertain & illegal freedom had . plunged him.
