The Picturesque Kentucky Character is Dying. Whitehall, Ky., July 92--Mind gone forever, life fast ebbing, General Cas sius Marcellus Clay, picturesque char acter, soldier, diplomat, pro-abolition ist, duelist, lies raving and alone in a gloomy room in Whitehall. Save for his faithful bodyguard Joe Perkins, lie {s alone. General Clay, in frequent outbreaks of Insanity is the lion of old. He gives orders, but countermands them or storms when they are carried out, Joe Perkins obeys him to the letter. Only Thursday there arrived at White hall Drs. Thomas 8. Bullock of Louisville and W. O. Bullock of Lexington, who came in response to General Clay's demand that he was in need of medi cal attention. When they came General Clay would have none of them. Perkins had orders and barred them from Whitehall, though they sought every effort to get into the sick room. Even Clay Good loe, a nephew, summoned from Wash ington by General Clay, was refused an audience.
