Submitted by Nancy Smith WHIG MEETING: The Whigs of Marshall County are requested to meet at the Court House, in Holly Springs, on Saturday next, for the purpose of selecting candidates to be run upon the Republican Whig ticket for the Legislature. Mr. Clay's Speech–its effect: The masterly effort of this distinguished Statesman, upon the subject of abolition, will be read with intense interest by every citizen of the South–by every lover and advocate of southern institutions. The just views of Mr. Clay upon this exciting, and when excited, dangerous subject, will meet with a warm and cordial response from the bosom of every Southern man: and while his high order of talent, splendid oratory, and disbinguished public services, command admiration and respect; the signal benefit which must result to the whole Union and particularly to the South, from this effort to subdue and overthrow, for years to come, every attempt which may be made to interfere in our domestic institutions, merits, and will receive, the approbation to which it is so richly entitled. The allusions of Mr. Clay to political abolition deserve the attentive consideration of every individual. We have ever deprecated its introduction into the political struggles of our country for party purposes, and political effect; and have regarded those who have attempted thus to use it, as being much more blinded by party zeal, more operated upon by party subserviency, than influenced by love of country, a desire to secure the permanency and statility of our institutions, and to promote the prosperity and happiness of our citizens. For such uses and purposes the subject of abolition has been introduced by many, even in the South, in regard to, and in connection with, the character and political pretensions of Henry Clay.
