On his subsequent arrival I wrote himalctttr.inwhichliipokeof Mr?, Clay'ul kindness tons in strong terms. He said, in reply* that it was but a poor return fori . the DsnsAti I had rsndSrsd to hi* fiuniiy. * Was he sincere? If be was, then neither he nor Mia. Clay considered me under any | nlili \felt otherwise; and this reeling predis posed me to think well of Mr. Clay, and rea dily fallingih to the support of Mo political view#. Accordingly, when he became a candidate for the Presidency, J eepouied his cause with alaerity and Mai. When I left New England 1 had a favor able opinion of John Quincy Adams. That opinion was changed By public documents and the representiuions of Mr. Clay rela tive to his conduct at Ghent Mr. Clay considered Mr. Adams his most dahserous rival andysgainst him was all his artillery di rected. I wrote a series of letters addressed to Mr. Adams, reviewing, his conduct in relation to the Ghent negociation, which Mr. Clay highly approved, aided in having them reprinted in pamphlets, and in giv ing them circulation. My time, my labor and my money were all lavished, without expectation of recompense, to advance Mr. Clay. If I owed him or his family any ob ligations; they were richly repaid in that contest. Mr. Clay made Mr. Adams President. I would not support Mr. Adams: but I did not wish to oppose Mr. Clay. My feelings towards his esumable lady determined me to remain neutral. For almost two years I maintained that attitude. I desired to main tain it throughout the contest,?but! found that in our local controversies, the whole weight of Mr. Clay and his political friends, with the power of the National Ad ministration, was thrown against me, my Mends and my principles. By his advo cates and dependants f was slandered and abused. Thoy combined to withdraw from me all public and private patronage, to de stroy my character, and reduce my fiunily to depredation ana* beggary. I nit that Mr, Clay was ungrateful. I saw. that with cola and calculating ambition, he was willing to see his best personal friends trampled in the dust to gain the support of that unrelenting majority which then domineered over Kentucky. Not public duty only, but the duty of self preservation, required of me to take a decisive stand. As much as I respected Mrs. Clay, I loved my own wife and children more. Yet/I mere ly resumed my oppotdtion to Mr. Adams, and passed over Mr. Clay in silence. The letter soon exhibited decisive marks of his displeasure, and Anally made a public at tack on my veracity and honor. Having drawn the sword, I now throw away the seabbard, and you know the result. In viewing my course, I have but one thing to regret. It is that I did not, regardless of all imputations, ~ ive stand t^jsinst the union of Messrs. Ad-| take a decis J Messrs. Ad ams and Clay in 18K8. I knew that Mr. Clay violated the will ofhia State; I knew that the union was interested and selfish. Instead ofbeingsilent, I ought boldly to have denouneedit. 1 ought to have been as sensi ble as I am now. that no common obliga tion of private friendship, and no fear of imputed ingratitude, can justify a public man in winking at a violation of the funda mental principles of our free institutions. On this point I am guilty; but I am not guilty oftho "sin of mgrautude." Fear of encountering the charge, Adse as it is, com bined with my respect for Mrs. Clay, made me sin against my country. Ought the sons of New England, emigre-. ting to other climes, to lose every scimo of I personal independence, and consider them selves the slaves or the mercenaries of any . great man of the Weet or the South, in whose house they chance, to reside olf U sl#T Must " * a " ?r i ho jfV & tests, the smbition "t. ,s^ master^ la this the JK i '1 i?ew England inculcates upon ?.r em:?rating childrenl I know her bet ..

In the conclusion of your letter, you promise that you will do me "that justice which it would seem I am endeavouring to mete out toothers." In concluding mine, I have to observo, that I hope my fidelity and seal in cor recting abuses, and endeavouring to bring delinquents to justice, may not prove to bo tho motive of my assailsnts in availing themselves of groundless rumours and ma licious fictions, to destroy my chsracter,and lessen my u?cnilne*s. With due respect, your obedient servant. Amos kendall. The National Intelligencer, commenting on Gov. Miller's soeech at Suiteburg, says: "TheJeeling again?t tbe manufacturer* must We atrong indeed In South Carolina, when the Governor himself a moderate man, hold* them up to hit fellow citiieni in the light, in which hi* speech, but especi ally his toast represents them." Tbe In telligencer for oner is right. The feeling is, indeed, strong, and daily becoming stronger. The Intelligencer is mistaken, however, when it Mipposes " that Mr. MU ner, one of the moderate party, aa it calls him, waa preferred to the office of Govern orinstead ?f another distinguished gentle man, because such was hit character." The gentleman alludedto was no candidate, nor it there any difference of principle or feeling in relation to the tatiff between him and tfte gentleman elected. They both think and feel alike on that subject. But whether Gov. Miller represents the moder ate party or not, the Intelligencer may be assured that the lino between that party and the violent it too faint and undiscernf ble to be known or recognised here) and that as sorely as Congress shall meet again, so surely w.il it find that there is no party or division in South Carolina on the impor tant subject of maintaining her freedom and recovering her rights.?CAar/r?/on Mer cury. The Richmond Enquirer of the 3lst ult has the following:? "We understand, that all the Depart ments of the Government at Washington have boen cloaely engaged?That the President himself sometimes sits up till 1 or 3 o'clock at night, reading public papers, fee.

KOIIKIUN. LATEST FROM IIAVHK. JVrv>- York, tuly 30.?By the packet ship Kdwsrd llonafle. Capt. Hathaway, from Havre, whcnce she sailed the 11th of June, we hisve received Havre tutpers to the 6th of June inclusive. We have also Paris pepems to the 7th inclusivo, for which we are indebted to the kindness of the edit ors of the Mercantile Advertiser. From those papers we have translated and ?bridged the following summary of tho in telligence they contain. Letters from Constantinople, dated May 19th, state that the Grand Soignor had " his camp to Terapln, on tho i side of the Bosphorus, where he the Standard in the magMMMlVi ?till later than thu IleHQ (emtioB mm) to attempt with an uny of 60,000 to penetrate into iervia, a province hithortoi not yet invaded by thaw calamities of every kind whioli devastate the two prinsinall tfea where the Russian* can remain no Ion nr.

Advice* from the department of Pau state that every instant new details' are brought in of disaster* occasioned by the mine of the ttth, Slst and Stt May. Al most every where the bad weather has caused great damage to the grain and to vinoytrda. At Montant, Lasque and seve ral other comuiunes th* wheel has been much injured and the grasses covered v. ith sand. At Aason and Labattut the crops had been destroyed, trees uprooted* ditches filled up, and on all sloping ground* the ve getable earth carried away, leaving only the hard pan. At Arbus the Gave has caaeed treat ravages. In the .anmdiase ment of Orthea two communes bars been laid wake by the hail. Other injuries from the weuher and tempests are mentioned in these accounts, which we take from the Journal du Havre of the 8th of June: but it appears that in the valley of A*pe the los ses have been most conaidcrablo.?The Gave, swollen by innumerable torrents, invaded the fields and meadows, and cov ered them with gravel and enormous frag ments of rock. In many places the royal road has been swept away, and the com munications with Spain interrupted. In others barns have been overturned snd swept along by the waters, with the ani main and tho crops whicli they contained, and many farm nouses and mills shared the same detraction. At Eygun two hou ses were crushed by an avalanche. At Borce the principal street suffered prodigi ously, and the whole village scarcely es caped being ongulphed and destroyed. Never, in the memory of man, had the wa ters rison so high. A few days have suf ficed to destroy the harvests or a year, to smite with barrenness lands lately fertile, to spread affright and mourning through a great number of oommunes, ana to reduce thousands of families to despair. We find it mentioned that M. Crawou>, a Counsellor of the Court of Aoeomptn, hud been suspended for a year, by a Royal Or donnance during which time he in to re ceive no salary. Tho ground of wis pension in said to have been a personal difference with the Chief President, and the Ordon nance was solicited without the Court being consulted or M. C'ratsoua being heard in his defence. Going to the Court to de mand copies of the Acta which led to his suspension. M. Craasous was rudely re pelled by the porter, and on his refuel to depart, the latter called a sentinel, who seized him, and threw him to the ground, notwithstanding his age (upwards of sixty year a) and his infirm health. Some of tho members of the Court rushed to the aid ol their colleague, who was released by them from hissituation. Tho a&ir is said to ex cite much attention. By accounts from different departments, it appears that there is a general (all in the price of com. The Gaxetto do France contradicta the report which had appeared in the London paper*, that a German Prince had eloped with the lady of a>tnember of tho British Cabinet. It it pronounced to be totally false. That the Prince in question, was in Paris at the moment when he was rep resented tut playing so unworthy a part at London. A private letter from Lisbon of the 2bd of May, announce*!, that while Don Migu el on the 31st, was holding a counacl at Quelus, despatches wore received both from Spain and London. Thev contained, it is said, a proposal that Don Miguel should take the title of Regent, that an amnesty should be granted and that the marriage of Dona Maria should he duly solemnized. A tragedy, entitled Marino Pallero, has been written by M. Caasimir Delavigne, the manuscript of which the author had sold for the sum of 18,000f. It hail been produced with great success at the Theatre Port 8t. Martin, some misunderstanding with the actors having caused M. Deb vigne to withdraw it front the Theatre Francai?, where it was originally intended (0 be performed. In many of its scenes, it is said to be a very closo imitation of Ixml Byron's drama on the samo subject, and in some, an almost literal translation. It is in contemplation to change the color of the French uniform from blue to red, by which a saving, it is Mid, of 1,500,OOOfr will be effected, in ho great (quantities is madder, with which thu red is dyed, pro duced in France. STILL LATER FROM ENGLAND. Hv the ship Thomas Dickason, Captain Anthony, arrived this day from Liverpool, we have received London and Liverfiool papers to the 18th of June. There was a rumor that Kean is dead. Letters from Odessa, of tho 24th of May, state that part of the Turkish fleet had again got out of tlie Bosphorus and were pursued by Admiral Greig, lying before Sir.epolis. An article from the VMila^datcd Mar ?28th, says, the EmperororRussia returned to Kt Petersburg on the beginning of May Them was a report that the exportation of corn from the king?lom of Prussia, both hy ses and land, would Ite prohibited until thr f>rod*of the approaching harvest could * asArtained. This step was taken on account of the lato inundations. The Russisn State Gasette has a story of a plot to murderthe King of Naples, which had been discovered and prevented. On the 8rd of June seven Spaniards wero arrested by the French authorities near the* commune of La Roque, which borders on "pain. They were armed with guns and Mole, and among them General Mils**, ho it was supposed was at Montpettef/? be Parts Conetitutionel says, that this Mi* Isns wss a creature of the Count D'Esnsg ne, Governor of Catalonia, a*d that he with the men under him here, tried to ret up a mock Insurrection oh the frontier of Catalonia, in ordet to induce the Spe#?h OonstttuUonaMsts In the South of Frsrco.

The Porte has commissioned the Pacbtfof Smyrna to buy several steam boats, through the agency bf KngU?h hou ses. The Sultan in said to have given po sitive olden to free the European coast of the Black Sea from the enemy, whatever it may cost. The 10,000 Albanians, lately arrived from Thossaly, were ordered to wards 8ixe bob. A paragraph, dated Fron tiers of Wallachla, May 7. states that the Turka made an unsuccessful attempt to pe netrate into hittle Wallachip; they wore beaten back by the Cossack* and Pandours. According to the Hamburg Reporter, the lettors from Bucharest represent the city in a state of the utmost despondency, and state thatall who have the means of doing it. are preparing to leave that abode of pes tilence and misery, and seek refuge in Transylvania. At Kalafat, according to the same letter*, the Turks had beon ro pulsod in an attempt to enter Little Walla ehlft, but in the vicinity of Varna they had aucoeeded in cutting of) two Russian ca valry vgi rnents. There is a London pancr of the 18th in town, which states that the Russians have extended their blockade to the whole Tur kish eooat, including 8myma. ' Mr. O't'onnel was making rapid pro gress through the county of Clare, in Ire land, on his electioneering tour.

Several thousands had fallen victims to the dUtomper; and in the case of adults, not ont third had survived tho attack.

At the nine depth, of one foot, it reached the manimnm on the 18th Julf 1815, but in the fol lowing year, it row only to 54", oo the Slat July. This Thermometer, in the apace of three yean travelled, therefore, over an interval of *25", the medium being 45| and) lattainod it* highest and lowest |?ointi? about three week* after the KoMk-o of summer and of winter. Thethermometer planted at the depth of two foot, stink to I?? on the 4th February 1816; but it stood at 38" about Uio begin ning of January 1817. It rose to 60" ou the 1st August 181/1; but in tbo next year, w resetted only A*ontka 94th July; and in 1817. ft again reached 60", on 10th July.? At the depth of two feet, the extremo varia tion was, therefore, 20?; and the Maxima and minima took place about four or five weeks after either solstice. The Thermometer of four feet depth had mink to 39* about the Uth February, 1810; and waa atationary at 40? near theM Feb ruary 1817. It kmo to M*, on theSnd Au gust 1816; and atood at 62* during the greater part of Auguwt and September in the years 1816 andl817.

The Thermometer, whose bulb was plan ted eight feet deep deacendod to 42? on the 10th February 1810. but atood at 421? on the Uth February 1817. It rose to 611* on the Uth Sept'er. 1816, fell to 60? on the Uth September 1816 and mounted again to 61?, on the 20th September 1817. This Ther mometer had, therefore, a range of only 2|v. the medium temperature heme 464", ana the extremes of heat and cold occurring nearly three month* after the solstbe of summer and of winter.

The Thermometers hence attainod their maxi mum at difforont period*, though in a tole rably regular succession. The mean tem perature of the ground, however^ seemed rather to increase with the depth; but this anomaly haa evidontly proceeded from the coldness of the two taut rammers and par ticularly that of 1810, which occasioned late harvest's and scanty crops. Thus, the Thermometer of one foot indicated the | medium heat of Only 43?.8 during the whole year of 1810. But it wilt be satisfactory to exhibit the leading facta in a tabular form.

In mid-summer, that is, four degrees, lower than the coolest wells and *prings of South Carolina, excepting some of the springs of the mountain region. At the same depth with our mild winters, the cold could ncvef^be so great and on the con trary in summer the heat would be a few degrees higher; but by going down from 10 to 15 feet, the thermometer, would proba bly range from 46? to 56 throughout the year.
