No one who hid experience ol our war
u( the rebellion can doubt that it wm the
greatest calamity that could befall thia
nation except a severance of the Union;
nor can the reHecting fail to know that
whenever the Federal Government ii un*
able to nlaintain its constitutional power
over ever/ mile of the territory within
its limit*, then the torch will be lighted
for perpetual border war, a crumbling of
the sectlona into principalities and a universal
anarchy, ending In despotism.
Gen. Washington doubtlens did more
than any other man in organizing our
armiea, fighting our battles, and aiding
by his wisdom ami moderation in bringing
order out of the chaos of the battle
and anarchy that victory too often engenders.
His life and services have
made the 22d of February almost as
sacred as the birthday of the country, and
on its centennial anniversary, 1832,every
gun wait tireil, every trumpet blown, every
liag floated to the breeze, while the thunder
tones of Uie orator and the song of
the poet were heard in every city and
village of the land. It was a day of rejoicing
in our country, thanks to God
who had brought us through the Red Sea
and to the Moses that nuided our foot
*tep? to the land of law, liberty and
pp.ice. It wan well. It was dne from a
nation of patriots.
Thursday, tlio 12th of April, 1877, in
the centennial anniversary of the birth of
Henry Clay,who although his infant Voice
only whs heard amidst the turmoil ot the
tight for liberty, was destined alone, for
near a half ?'entury,to calm the waves
of discord and preserve the infant nation
from civil war nnd dissolution, until her
strength was equal to the conflict. Yes,
"Peace, too,hath its victories," and again,
again, and again he came to her side,
took her in his arms, and with hia voice
calmed the turbulent wave*, guiding her
to a home of i?eace and rest, yet we hew- no
note of preparation in the land, no auggeation
that ever each, a onewae born
or lived. lias the Centennial fire seared
otir memories, or "a change come o'er
the face of all things earthly," or have we
forgotten Joshua? No sound of preparation
i? heard even in Wheeling, among
your noddies or the public, to pay any
attention to the day, or revive any reremembrance
of the man, which,
perhuiM even more than any other plat e,
xhoulu cherish his memory. Have all
your old citizens forgotten that he wax
ihe originator of the National road and
bore it through to the last, against the
fiercest opposition of the whole South?
mai mat law tue toumiation ol Tour
early pro^porily; nay, buitl your
city where it is. Have they "forgotten
the ti mo when that was the only
avenue to the Went, when that road from
Cumberland to \\heeling -was lined with
the white wagon*, larger than the burthen
train of an army, bearing to the Went
the comfort* ami luxuries of life, when
your wharf was lined with steamboats,
taking in ami putting out their passengers
and freight; when your stages all
night and all day thundered through the
street*; the emigrant wagon* whitened
your utablo yard-*, ami their owners
sought homes among you; when your
merchant* and mechanics were all busy;
while those in many of the towns were
languishing for employment! Yet these
things were. There was a time when
there was a monument erected to his
memory live miles out the road. AVho
reads it now except tlie truant' school
|?oy as he ebies a stone at the squirrel on
its summit. It is cold and alone; but
who shall say that the spirit of the great
patriot does not sometimes stand upon it
and look upon the devastation of his great
work, as did Marius upon the ruins of
Carthage. The world moves, but man
learns only by the great book
of the past. You lovcu him too.
Do vou not remember the long trains of
carriages wilh their hands and banners
that went up our Wheeling hill, to bring
him in when he was coming in the stage
-how the wharf and river hank were
lined with men, women and children,
when the large, hoarse whistle of the
ateamer announced that lie was on board,
how the trumpet to the canon" spoke and
all the heavners; how you crowded to get
a grasp of his hand as if you would
transmit it as a legacy to your descend*
ant#; how you in thousands looked up to
that brilliant smile that often graced his
face and lighted up his broad brow, while
you listened to his words of wisdom tittered
in a voice melodious as the song of
birds.
But it was so everywhere. He loved
his country and all patriots' loved him.
Going to the Senate with but the years
that would admit him to its sacred' precincts,
and with little knowledge, except
what was intuitive, he won hearts and
power over men without a i*rceptible
Hl'ort. Foremost in all good lie was a
man honored above all around, He was
elected Speaker of the House on first entering
its halls and so continued while he
remained there. His soul took fire at the
wrongs of Greece and burned at those of
his own country. Hissuavityjaml talent
were mainly instrumental in securing the
favorable treaty Client^ and in 1820 he
commenced his life work of healing the
discords of his country. Ho knew the
character of the people with whom he had
to deal. The "Missouri Compromise"
was the first measure. Protection to
American Industry was his favorite
purpose. In 1817 he secured an imperfect
tariff. in 1828 another, but to preserve
theUnion ho was forced to the compromise
of 1833. It is true Gen. Jackson said to
the rebels of 1832, "I will hang you as
high as Haatuan," but the administration
narty then having the Executive and
House, proposed to reduce duties to an
odvalorem of sixteen per cent. Mr.Clay
came to the rescue, and the result was a
gradual reduction to twenty per cent and
homo valuation. Ho-was the framer of
the truly protectivo tariff of 1842. In
1344 his effort to soothe the South on the
Texas question cost him New York and
the Presidency and the country a war.
He was forccd, through the madness of
the Southern fireaters to present and
urge through the fugitive slave law, for
which he is much blamed by many who
ars ignorant of the facts; but which fhe
writer, who considered the law the most
vile and oppressive ever imposed upon a
people, regards as one of the most glorious
acts of his life. ' 1 derive the facts
from his own words as wfll as other
sources. Mason, of Virginia, the delegate
of tho Southern caucus, backed by a
largo number of Northern Democrats,
presented him the bill as it passed, lie
replied, "It is unconstitutional and oppressive."
"I know it, but that bill,
word for word, ia our ultimatum, an4 we
have enough solemnly pledged to our
cause from the North to carry it through.
If it is not passed wo rebel?if it is the
North must." In the language of Mr.
Clay, "1 had confidence in the North,
and knew the South wotild do as they
proposed." In this act Mr. Clay sacrigced
his own feeling* to the good of his
country, more than in any other act of
his life, and had he failed there, the reItellion
would ltave Ixen, the war on
Northern soil and a hand to hand tight,
with a large Southern lirmy fresh from
the fields of Alexieo. Uon. Taylor
first hfttng boon slain as he was,* the
separation might well have bet-n effected.
Blame him not. The North needed
another insult and wrong and even that
did not intensify her. feeling and unite
her people; butthe guardian of his country's
weal and Union was at his end on
earth. Had ho been alive, Air. Douglass
would have dared as well, unarmed, to
have clutched ths lion in his wrath as to
hart presented the Ktuu, Nebraska
bill and urged its passage. Even that
failed folly to arouse the North. It took
the infamy of Buchanan's administration ,
to do that, and the firing on Fort garnter ,
to bring out the love of country from
many. ,
Had Mr. Clay been alive when the rebellion
came, no one can for a moment
doubt on which aide he would have been, 1
although at the aacrifice of all bat his
love of the Union, one and inseparable.
No onewho heard him not cftn appreciate
hi* eloquence, which at all timea chained
every eye and ear within the sound of
hia voice. No one who did not closely
follow his acta, and appreciate his motivea
and purposes or perpetual Union
as the only source of his. country'a life,
csn estimate his true aervioes to his
country and the cause of liberty; and no
one who did not know him well, can feel
hia genial qualities united with an honor
untarnished by a thought,or hil contempt
of all fraud or chicanery, or appreciate
the wisdom and interest of his conservetiam.
I will quote one remark that
seemed to drop from him very carelesaly
that would do much good if written In
indellible ink, on the heart of every man
who has too much "ambition for his
energy," as Billy Keed mid of
hia horse that fell ill the shafts
while drawing a heavy load. In convernation
one evening, in 1837, I remarked;
"Is it not strange that Mr. Dallai, old aa
he in, and with his standing at the bar.
should except that Kuseian mission.
He laughed, and replied: "He evidently
thought I wonld think so, too, for I met
him at ft hotel in Baltimore and he seemed
to avoid me, until I determined to corner
him, when he said: "I presume you
think H strange that I accepted tbla
Russian mission, but the truth is I am
(joor and have sons to eduoate and estabish
in life." I replied: "7pretumeywr
experience irUl induct you to inninul them not
to enter public lijt until they ore able to live
without ita rmolumcnts." I have never
heard more wisdom in as few words; but
1 began this simply to suggeet that some
