Richmond Enquirer

Mr. Clay declines all public dinners—and evidently his spirits are in the Penseroso mood. Indeed slips in a parenthesis to his answer addressed to the Lynchburg Committee, as follows: "in one event, indeed, of the existing contest (an event which I am happy to believe is not likely to be realized") &c &c. But, this is a cold and vapid sentiment, interpolated per force into his letter, in comparison of the volcanic fire which marked his War, Pestilence and Famine speech at Baltimore, or the animated effusion which he poured forth at Kanawha.—His Cincinnati address was spiritless. —His letters at Lynchburg & Fredericksburg are flat and cheerless.—The Western elections have chilled his hopes—and he feels, that the game is up.

In his address at Fredericksburg. Mr. C. seems to have forgotten the time, when the Old school principles of Virginia were with him a by-word of scorn & contempt.

We shall finish, in our next, the conclusive Defence of Gen Jackson by the Nashville Committee—Yet the Nat. Journal is already carping at it—of course!—We shall follow it up, with the development of Mr. Clay's support of A. Burr in 1806. from the Frankfort Gazette—attach a few documents, which seem to have escaped the notice of the author of that paper—and offer a few remarks on the whole subject.
