CLAY, Bt-a VutNO Merchant or Raltiuork dc RINO HIS LAST ILLNRSs. It yaa while Kossuth was iu Washington, mod an exciting session of Congress, then at its height, I determined to go down there and see the lions of the day, but more es pecially to meet once again the great Henry Clay. Well, I found upon my arrival there that Mr. Clay's bad health had caused his doctor to forbid strangers from visiting him, and then I determined to seek some intiuea tial man. and by my entreaties gain admis sion to the sick patriot’s room. I pon more mature deliberation, 1 resolved, however, to address Mr. Clav a note, which I did, •eliciting an audience with him ‘for one mo ment only,' to rest my eye upon the great commoner. This note I gave to the office olerkat the Xatioual Hotel, but he said that his orders were positive, that Mr. Clay should be kept quiet on that day. My friend Sansbury, then an attache of the National, however, came to my aid, and 1 dispatched my note on its mission. The waiter return ed with the reply, that Mr. Clay would see me the next day at one o'clock. * You may think it a weakuessin me, but I assure you that when I received that message, 1 felt alarmed at what 1 had done. That 1, “a boy, of three and twenty years,” should hava proceeded so far, and was in reality to be, by appointment, in the presence of Mr. Clav within twenty-four hours, con you wonder that I shruuk from the interview? Well, the next day came, and when I banded my card to my waiter efthe day be fore, I was agaiu met by theassuranee that it was useless, for on that morning General Cast and Kossuth had desired an interview, and had been refused. As 1 did not expect to create that excitement, in the good old man's chamber that they should, l still had hopes of my success, and .waited the reply to my card. In a few moments 1 was told that “Mr. Clay would Le pleased to see me.” 1 went to his room door, and 1 have thought since that no event in my lito so completely filled my mind with that peculiar sensation that men have described, when in a moment of great import they have seen pass in their agitated mind all of the prominent events BRILLIANT SCHEMES, To be drawn at Wilmington* Delaware, in march, 1855.

I was coufused, and while hesitating in my'approach, 1 cast my eye on him, •*tbe noblest Roman of them all,” seated ntir the fire with his wrapper thrown around him, and in response to my glance he gave that smile of welcome which, while it gave his countenance new life, imparted to me the assurance of mv kind reception. 1 approach ed him, and whon he said, “My son, I am glad to see you," I was relieied of all fears, and felt as though 1 saw one whom l had known long before. When 1 then repeated to him the object of my visit, he said, “l am reallv glad to see you, sir; you are welcome, you are welcome.” Kven in these lew word* his voice failed, his cough commenced, anti when be was relieved from it. he gave t> me the too striking assurance, that soon wt must mourn a nation’s loss. 1 said to him that I haJ distinctly stated in my note that 1 desired only a momeni with him, and would retire, but he pressed me to remain. He spoke to me of Christo phsr Hughes, esq., and M illiaui Schley esq., and other Baltimoreans, and appearec in his conversation, to be conversant at leas with the standing of many of our prominen cititcos. He asked me then of myself, am never, never, can I efface from my rnemon his appearance when I told him that a home I had a widowed mother, whose onb earthly support 1 was. 1 he good old man the gallant Henry Clay, said, “Be kind t< your old mother, watch her declining years be unto her a dutiful and loving son, am when sho sleeps in death you will feel youi reward." The conversation continued, am I fearing that it might be productive of bai •fleets upon his almost prostrate system more than once rose to leave, but be press ed me to remain. He said, “Sir, this inter view gives me pleasure, because as a stran ger, you are the representative of a \arg< class of the American people, who acknowl tdge foy by day a claim I have upon them which I cannot, to this time, understand.— On my table I have now a score of letter; received this morning, a large majority o which are from those whose names I hav< never before heard. They are letters oi svm pithy and medical advice, but while feeling their kindness, yet I must trust alone to mt kind physicians here.” I said to him tha ew the return of spring we all hoped that hi* health would be improved, and his systen invigorated by its gentle weather. He re plied, “No, sir, I can never go home agaii alive; I cannot hope for that; but I with onc< mott to tfie foliate.' Then his 6p lit up, his face looked as I had not seen i before, and his whole frame appeared as though new life bad been given to it. Soon I arose to leave, and I asked him i 1 could serve him in Baltimore. He told m< that he was attended to in W ashington in e( faithful a manner, that every waut was an ticipated, and every attention shown him He spoke of the kind attendance of Mrs Calvert, and said that, away from home, h( could not be more advantageously located. ] felt ft desire to serve him, and he read m3 sincere wish, for previous to ray leaving h< requested me to procure him some Malaga gmpee in Baltimore, of which he was very fond. I promised him that I would, and ex landed him my hand at parting. He reach ed forth his, and rising from his seat, placed hts left hand on my head and said, “My son, Qod bless you—be a kind son to vour old mother; good-by; take my blessing with you good-by." Theee were his words, exact, and precise!) as uttered, and I assure you they will never be forgotten. I was too lull for utterance I endeavored to thank him, but my tongue was palsied, and I retired, my face still be holding his until I left that room, and even now, when memory leaps over intervening matter, I feel the majesty of his last look. I came home and sent him the grapes. Philip R Fendall acknowledged their recep tion, for Mr. Olay was too ill to do so, and 1 have now that acknowledgment, and l have from James B. Clay a present, and inscribed on it are these words: “Presented to — by James B. Clay, it having belonged to his father, Henry Clay, of Kentucky.” That gift in the identical portfolio used by Mr. Clay in the Senate up to the time of his death, and bears in many places the fac si mile of his autograph. 1 have now that ralie, and it takes its own true position in my parlor—the most attractive of all things—a testimonial from the son and executor of our greeteet statesman to one not worthy of so great a souvenir, but one who never can forget the incidents which he now relates to you.— JWtimert S*n. __ A.
