Yesterday we despatched from this office three ot the best reporters in this or any country, to pro- ceed to Boston, for the purpose of reporting the great oration of Daniel Webster, and giving a full de senption of the proceedings of that magnificent ce- lebration. And we challenge the whole newspaper of New York or New England, to give such account and report of this affair, as we are pre- pared to publish. We are also preparing, by the first artists of Bos- ton, three large splendid engravings, illustrating as many views of this vast celebration. ‘The first of these engravings will contain a view of the procession on Boston Common, when it starts for Bunker Hill—the second, a view of the proces- sion on Charlestown Bridge, with the Monument on the right, and the Boston State House on the eft—the third will be a view of Daniel Webster and the vast crowd, under the Monumentitself, with the scenery of earth and heaven in the back ground. Full descriptions will accompany each of these engravings, with a verbatim report of Mr. Webster’s oration, to the last letter. The first editien of these proceedings will be pub- lished in an Extra Heratp on Sunday morning eatly—and the Heratp of Monday will contain the whole, with a report of the sayings and doings at the dinner in Faneuil Hall, down to a late hour on Sa- turday night, brought to this office by special ex- press. If any other newspaper establishment in New York caa beat us in point of time, accuracy, or superionty of style, they are perfectly welcome to try their best. Carrain Tyter’s Pirarmmace.—Our own John Jones, ot New York, accompanies the President to Bunker Hill, and returns with him to Washington, following his steps all the way. We expect the first ot his sketches to-day- Re.arions or ENGLAND AND THE Unrrep STATES. The relations between the present governments of England and the United States, are of the most paci- fic and friendly character—but there certainly exist among the people of each country respectively,those elements of unfriendliness—of discord—of jealous: nay, of ancient hate and dislike, that will produce a groundewell calculated to force the governments of both from their friendly attitude, into a different and more unpleasant one. Recent events have very much increased these symptoms. The strange and lawless seizure of the Sandwich Islands by Lord Paulet, and the recent threats uttered in Parliament against Ireland, have created a perfect tempest throughout the popular masses of this country. Of course the United States government have sacred treaties to observe, and they must ebserve them in good faith—but there is no law, no power, no influence in this country, that can prevent a popular outbreak of enthusiasm in favor of any indication of revolution, insurrection, or effort of deliverance, made in Ireland, or in Eng- land, or in France, against their present forms of government. IttS believed in this country that the popular masses of all western Europe are republicans, and ready at the first chance to throw offthe institutions of antiquity—and to copy those of the United States ~—and wherever there is an effort made at such a purpose in Dublin, Manchester, London, or Paris, it will always meet with a sympathetic response by the masses of this land, who give the impulse to the government in the last resort. New York is the grand centre of this popular element of modern so- ciety and civilization, and all that a free and widely circulated press can do, is to report its workings ac- curately, but not attempt to control what is irresis- tible and uncontrolable. This is what we do. In the meantime, we will be onthe tip-toe of ex- pectation for the next movements in Jreland—and the disposition of the British government in the re- cent seizure of the Sandwich Islands. We may be on the threshold of insurrection—war and revolution throughout Europe. The United States were never in a more peaceful, united, and prosperous condition —nor did Europe ever stand on the brink of a greater voleano than she does during the present seeming peaceful day. Transactions o¥ THE Historica. Socrety.—One of the most important historical developments in paat times, recently made by this learned Society, is the report on the secret diplomacy of the “Young democracie,” by whose intrigues Captain Tyler, during his late progress through New York, was prevented from visiting the rooins of that institution, which had been lighted up at an “enormous expense,” as Barnum says, to receive him ; besides, many ladies dressed up for the occasion. The research and learning expended in nvestigating this intrigue of the ‘“democracie” were tremendous. One highly important historical ‘act isluminously established by these savans— honest Captain John Tyler was providentially saved trom being bored to death for two hours, and there- by his life is accidentally preserved to live out hie rst and only term of office. History is looking up. Humsve.—The boobies of the ‘Expresse” ob- ject to one of the engravings illustrating Captain Tyler's visit to New York. The design of that cut was taken from one ot the most popular and fashion- able of Dickens’ works, and is probably in the li- brary of every lady and gentleman in the country, including those of the objectors. What asses these editors make themselves? We have found out where the Major has been, in these busy days—he has been angling in Philadelphia waters for the mis- sion to Constantineple—getting puffs published in the papers there—pufis as unseemly in their propor- tions as the Major himself is. One of these puffs we have seen—and a greater piece of trash we ne- ver read, Let Captain Tyler appoint him if he pleases—that’s all. Masor Noaw at Last. Tue Barrisa Const The new British Consul, Mr Barclay,was one of the spectators at the Irish Re- peal Meeting yesterday afternoon. He stood during the greater part of the time, under one of the trees of the Park, observing very attentively the materials of the meeting, and calculating the effectit may pro- duce ia this country, or in hisown. He will proba- bly make @ report to his government, by the packet that sails to-morrow. We should like to kaow what he says, for we doubt whether he has the sagacity to penetrate into the weight and importance of these things, eo well as his shrewd predecessor, Mr Buchanan. However, he will do his pretuest. LaTER FROM Havana.—By the arrival of the brig Josevh Brown, Captain Read, we have received files of the La Preusa to the 7th inst.

Mr. Clinton, however, made, upon the whole, a very sensible speech, and told the story of Ireland’s wrongs with considerable effect. We were surprised to see him go out of his may to condemn the suggestion of ‘a certain newspaper” of the propriety of aiding the poor and the suffering of Ireland, “who were desirous of joining their iriends inthis country,” to emigrate to the United States Can it bethat Mr. Clinton would close the door of our boasted wsylum to such of the cruelly oppressed sens of the “Green Isie” as may desire to e of our hespi- tality? Ifnot, why reftise aid to these that ask it to es. capetrom famine and starvation, to a country where there isplengy and to spare? Why urgea brave man to place his head in the lion’s mouth “by assuring him, that when the king of beasts shall bite, our aid shall not be wanting to strangle the monster? One grow] and grip on the part ofthe lion, and our well intended aid will come too late. ‘What avail was all our sympathy and promises of succor, to the brave but untoriunate Pole, Von Shoultz, who was executed in Conada for being engaged in an open rebel- lion against the crown of England? Itisone thing to help as we ought a comparatively weak people already in arms, struggling manfully for their undoubted rights—and quite another affair to urge this same people, in advance, to engege in a fearful con- test, where the chances of war—“might making right,” in the use of deadly weapons, and well drilled armies— are against, altogether against our friends, and the cause which they espouse. Mr. C. spoke of “the union of the Giontand the Dw shout ever intimating thet it might be very humane and just “to aid with our lives, if need be,” the little dwarf, when contending with almost hopeless odds against the giant; while it would not be either kind or just to contribute untimely sympathy, that will excite a quarrel, and give the giant a pretext for the porpetration of greater wrongs and blacker cruelties. Mr. Ciintow was followed by Mr. Postmaster Happocx. Some over nice persons might objecc to an officer uf the government taking part in such a matter, but there is rea- son for all thing, and this is the reason why Haddock in- flicted himself upon the meeting. It is more than surmi- sed that he does not hold his office by the most secure tenure, end it has been more than intimated that Mr. Clin- ton, who is a son-in-law of John C. Spencer, might step into his shoes some bright morning Haddock therefore, could by no means consent to let Cliaton get ahead of him at a Repeal meeting, particularly as Master Ronen Truex had distinguished himself by an exhibition in the same line. And soto retain office and curry favor, we have a fresh, though characteristic, displ iy of paltry dem- agoguism, and on effort is made to pervert the warm hearted sympathies of Irishmen for their brethern in their native land, to individual solid account. ATTENTION, tHE WorLp!—In fact, the man in the moon might as well be on the look out. In the Lancaster Intelligencer we find the following an- nouncement extraordinary. This is, indeed, a great countr, To aut Pustisnens or Newsrarens on THE GLO} As it is my intention to make a trip acro: Ocean in a balloon, inthe summer of 1844, and as the de- scent or landing of balloon: my experience, hat invariably created unnecessary alarm to the inh I therefore give this general notice to the seafaring com: munity, of all climes, that should they, during any time henceijorth, chance to be in the vicinity of a balloon, cither on the ocean, or inthe atmosphere, they will not be under any fearful apprehensions, but endeavor to give aid to the adventurers.

On Boarp THE SrgamBoat Massacuvsetrs, Off Stonington; ‘Thursday, June 15, 1843. 2 o’clock, A. M. James Gorpon Brnnerr. Esq.— Dear Sir :— The truly magnificent boat on board of which ] em writing this, has just reached the mouth oi Stonington harbor. The President, who sleeps ‘lone on this occasion, with all his Cabinet and their lovely female relatives, are all fast asleep; the latzer looking So tranquil, so beloved, All thoy have lett of life with us is living So gentle, stirless, helpless, and unmoved, And all' unconscious of the joy they’re giving, All they have felt, inflicted, passed and proved, Hushed into depths beyond the water's diving; ‘There lie the things we love, with all their errors, And all theircharms, like death without its terrors ! Such is the exact pesition of the President and his suite, at this present writing; the latter is thus made up :— Tur OrriciaL PersonaGes In THE Surre cF THE PResipent. Robert Tyler and laly, Mr. Tevis, Secretary of the Treasury, Captain Ramsay, U.8. A., Secretary of the Navy, . Thomas Cooper, trage- Secretary of War, dian, Post Master General and Col. Allen, Dr. Kennedy, lady, Commodore Warrington,U. Two Misses Porter, Miss Spencer, Misses Wickiiffe, Mrs. Tevis, Miss Tevis, Postmaster Montgomery, Mr. Collector Curtis, Postmaster Graham, Dr. Thomas, The men belonging to the boat are all at their posts ; Captain Comstock is on dock—a tew disap- pointed office seekersare lying between the boxes In the waist, and mine host of the Astor is entertain. ing a select party of friends in his inimitable way, Mr. Ely, a revolutionary soldier, Mr. Hartshorn, U. S. Mar- shal for Rhode Islan Gen. Henderson, Mr. Benson and ‘ledy Guards, Captaia Cairns, who escorted the President to the boat, pertormed their duty admirably, and as the boat left the wharf they fired one round from 36 muskets, so masterly that the report waslike that from one large cannon. The President stocd on the upper deck, larboaid side, and bowed rereated- ly as the crowd cheered. As the boatleft the wharf and he took leave of New York, perhaps for the Jast time in his life, and saw the thousands of smiling happy faces, on shore, and looked round upon his children by his side, the tears filled his eyes, and trickled down the good old man’s cheek’s, especially when one old white headed veteran in the crowd cried out, “*Goa bless you, John Tyler.” Mrs. Ro- bert Tyler, by long odds the most charming lady on board, except three young Hebesin black from the Astor House, was also much affected by the scene. There was a large crowd, and by far the most re spectable one that has yet greeted him, present on board the boat to see him off; among whom were Mr. Livingeton, Mr. Morris, Mr. Brevoort, Mr. Schuyler, Mr. Stuyvesant, Mr. Erford, Mr. Jones, &c, &c. There were on board about sixty lady passengers and 200 gentlemen. The Massachusetts stood well over for the Jersey shore, rounded to, and passed the Norih Carolina in fine style. The rigging of this vessel and of the Independence was manned so completely, that you couldscarcely see a shroud or rattlin; and_ the sailors gave three most lusty cheers as the Massachusetts passed them. After leaving these vessels, the President was re- peatedly cheered from the Brooklyn shore as far as Tallett’s Cove. On passing the south end of Black- well’s Island, about 120 of the miserable Magdalens were drawn up in full array, and as the boat passed they gave one hideous discordant yell, and made the most indecent gestures In contrast with this were the children of the Long Island Farms, looking {ull of health and innocence, who gave six heariy cheers forthe President. On reaching Hell Gate, the President aud all the Cabinet came forward to the bow of the boat, and were particularly desirous to have the pot, the gridiron, and the hog’s back rendered immortal by Washington Irving, pointe: out tothem; and Judge Upshur and Mr. Spencer were exceedingly observant of the beauties of the East, River, and the capabilitiesof New York Island and its glorious harbor. _ Of course, ia a little trip like this, made between seven at night and two in the morning, there can be little to interest the general reader. It is suffi- cient to say that the President appeared in fine health and spirits, and so did the ladies and gentle- men of hissuite. They promenaded every part of the boat, laughed, chatted, sang, and enjoyed them- selves to the tip top gallant of their desires. Tudeed, I never saw amore hnppy looking party. The Pre- tident expressed his admiration of New Yerk, and the kindness he had met there, in the warmest terms. And Robert declared that the reception, the scenery, and the demonstrations of the last two davs, fully compensated for the last two years of tribulation. But after passing Hell Gate, it was evident that a change had come over ihe spririt of the dreams of all on buard; the President and his Cabinet seemed no longer such; bu’ simple fellow citizens, going in common with 100,000 others, to pay a sincere tribute to the might of genius and intellect on the first altar of their great country’s freedom, as the President beautifully observed in landing in New York. In plain prose, they were all now intent on reaching Bunker Hiil to hear Daniel Webster speak on that hallowed ground. The mere desire of seeing and speaking to the President was utterly lost in the laudable one of doing honor to living genius and de- parted patriotism! That from this time tothe close of next Saturday’s proceedings, Daniel Webster was io be the Magnas Apollo of the whole; and the anticipation of those events imparted unmingled feelings of felicity to the whole party. This did not prevent them from enjoying them- selves; and when they set down to supper about halt past eight, they showed they were in (8 health as well as spirits. And such a supper I have never seen equalled on board « steamboat in any country. It was magnifique; salmon, trout, strawberries, cream, woodcock, pigeons, made dishes, &c. &c., without number, and in the most profuse abundance. There was one delightful arrangement at the table; the ladies were distributed like Christians and ra- tional beings,miscellaneously among the gentlemen to whom they beloxged; not stuck together all of a row like so many mummies ina museum, as is ge- nerally the case at these public tables. The Pres- dent said he had never seen so brilliant a display on board of any steamboat; and, indeed, when you call to your recollection the magnificent cabin of the Massachusetts, about 300 teet long, brilliantly light ed and tastefully ornamented, the tables bending under delicious viands, the Chief Magistrate atthe head, surrounded by his Cabinet, his family, and three score ot beautiful women. You may suppose it was a scene calculated to make a married man feel hapiys a widower, ausetaaie single ope mi- , for serable, the time being. But as Burns says— « Nae man can tether time or tide.” And so the company roze at 9 o’clock, and proceed- ed to the upper deck. Here a curious scene occur- red ; the President, cabinet, and all the ladies, sat in the delightful saloon, and a series of songs were sung in most excellent style. One lady, Mrs Ben- son, sung ‘Strike the cymbals” delighttully. Chas. Stetson sang “‘ Erin is my home,” and as you all know whata glorious yoice he has, you don’t want to be told that he sang it superbly. A very genteel young man from Virginia—no ebstractionist—then sang— ir Oh, get ont o’ the way, old Daniel Tucker, You're too late to come to supper ; Get out 0’ de way— (Pause, and stamping of one foot.) Get out o’ de way f= ( Pause.) Get out o’ de way You hardened sinner ; You too late to come te dinner ; Get out 0’ de way ! At which the President and ladies roared with laughter. Whilst this was going on at one end of the boat, Mr. Curtis, the Collector, and two Clay whigs were in high contest at the other; they were railing at the President for various matters; when Curtis took up the cudgels, and alter a stormy dis- cussion of fifteen minutes, he used them both up, and they slunk off'to bed heartily ashamed ; and a few friends of theirs, who undertook to encourage them, went off and joined the singing party, and laughed ae heartily as any one. Butjust as they be came friendly to the President, John Tyler (not the President) was literally overflowing with friendly feelings to the ladies. Mr. Postinaster Graham rose and said, ‘‘ Mr. President, as you have an ar- duous day’s work before you, and it is 11, we will leave you to seek repose.” “ Solitary and alone,” said somebody. The ladies titered. Mr. Tyler then rose, his eyes glistening with delight, and said, “* But [ have first a pleasing duty to perform,” ‘and putting his arms round the neck of a beautiful young irl, ho Ne her a hearty kiss. Then like Harry the Eighth, when he exclaimed as he kissed Anne Boleyn, “A challenge, let it go round!” so John Tyler went round 67 beautiful women, and kissed them all but three, who ran into the cabin scream- ing. The young girls colored scarlet, and toughta little, but their eyes looked pleasure as they ran from his embrace. Oh, it was a regular rape of the lips, and no mistake. It was well Mr. Webster wasn’t here Alter this, the President went to the Captain's private cabin, which was fitted up a8 a bedroom for him, in most elegant style. Rich carpet, superb Mirrors, long yo 4 covered with crimson damask; bed, with sheets, counterpane, blankets, pillow cases, nightshirt, nightteap, every thing, white and pure as the snow flake e’er it falls and takes the taint of earth. The bed had rich crimson and white H and calm, with the silver moon holding her way : cet! aged up like an Aster House parlor, | + through skies where you could count each little But 1 ain head of my story.

Some one ther struck up, “Tvl never do to give upso, Mr. Brown.” The President laughed, walked in and got into bed; and around that part of the arragements 1 draw the curtain. There was little else to chronicle. Mr. Charles Stetson had fitted up a little room on deck superbly, and here he hada choice collection of liquorsand segars. To these the President and all the cabinet did ample justice; they talked loud and spared not, and enjoyed themselves here for an hour or two; in fact, at the “* wee short hour ayont the twal,” there was still a snug party there, with whom “The night drave on wi’ songs and clatter, The brandy, too, was growing better !” In closing I must do justice to this noble boat; she has been built five or six years,'refitted, and 1s now in finer order than when new; she is three hundred teet long, and thirty-one feet beam, by thirteen feet hold. She originally cost $130,000, and has had $50,000 expended on her since. She is a beautiful sea boat, and so firm that you can scarcely feel the working of her engine in any part of the boat. She is a princely concern, and can accommodate five hundred passengers with case, and in the very best manner; her average speed is sixteen miles an hour. To Captain Comstock I must tender my sincere thanks; who as soon as he knew I caine from the “New Yerk Herald,” tendered me every possible kind of civility. Among the ladies who were d of the cabinet, observec Mrs. Comstock, Miss West, — Taber, Mrs. Dr. Buchlar, Mrs. Dr. Welles, Mrs. Olney, Mise Olney, Miss Devereux, Mrs. Handy, Mrs. Depeyster, Mrs. Jackson, Mrs. Stetson, Mrs. Duncan, and Miss Devereux. 4 .

Bunker Hill Celebration — ‘Lhe Glorious Seventeenth! [Correspondence of the Herald.] Boston, Wednesday, 4.P.M. June 14, 1843. As the time approaches when the grand gala is to be celebrated, all hearts beat high with excitement, and business, and even pleasure, are forgotten in an- ticipation of the glorious jubilee. The busy notes of preparation are sounding around us, and the three laat days of this week in Boston bid fair to be- come as memorable as the glorious trois jour of July. The weather has been delightful during the week, and every thing promises a splendid celebration The enthusiasm of the people is increasing every moment, and Boston will vie with New York in ten- dering to the President a hearty welcome. The city is fast filling up with strangers, and the steamboats and railroads all come loaded.

Depend upon it, Boston will do her- selt honor on the occasion, and prove herself worthy of the high reputation for liberality and patriotism which hes always been awarded her 5 The theatres, concerts, museums, caravans, olios, &c., are calculating on a rich harvest this week. The Ravels close a successful cugegement at the Tremont to-night, and after the 25th inst , the thea tre will be occupied as a church and lecture room, the “ learned blacksmith” being announced to deli- ver three lectures for the introductory course. Signor De Begnis gives a concert to-night. Mr. Russell and Yankee Hill appear on Thursday even- ing in a Concert and Olio. Mr. Knoebel also repeats the “Battle of Bunker Hill,” on els evening,and the Hutchinson’s sing at the Miller Tabernacle on Saturday night, at which the President will be pre- sent. The ‘‘little Eagle” theatre, under Yankee Hill, opens on Thursday evening, and the President will visitthe Tremont on Friday night. Tom epee attracts crowds at the Museam, and the “Fat Girl” is hourly expected from New York. The Menagerie from your city will be exhi- bited at the bottom of the Common. Rev.

Mysreriovs Muspen or 4 Femare—Coroner Archer was called yesterday afternoon te the country seat of Ge Yard H. Coster, on Murray Hill, inthe upper partof this city, to investigate a circumstance that has created greet excitement inthat vicinity. It appears that for a length of time past the water taken from the cistern on the pre- mises had @ nauseous smell, which appeared to incresse as the weather grew wormer, until recently the ‘»mily has been unableto use it for any purpose. Arrangements were finally made to have the cistern cleansed, and per- sons were employed for that purpose. On pumping the water off, to the astonishment and horror of the workmen and thefamily of Mr. Goster, the body of a human being was discovered et the bottom of the cistern! In at- tempting to raise it through the aperture, hy means of a rope attached to one of the legs, it was separa: ted from the body, owing to its decomposed state.— Further attempts to raise it were postponed until the arrival of the coroner and deputy, when the pump was removed from the cistern, and the remaing finally drawn out. Upon examination it was found to be the body of a female, in a state of advanced decomposition, ‘80 much So as to prevent the detection of her features, or the causes that led to her death. The clothing found around the shapeless mass of putrefaction consist- ed of a pair of black woollen stockings, a woollen under dress, such as is usually worn by Datch female emigrants, and the remains of a dark frock.— From appearances there is no doubt that the body hi been in the cistern for nearly a year, but how it came there isone of the mysteries that, like the murder of Mary Rogers or Rosalie Romaine, may remain for years in darkness and obscurity. The family of Mr. Coster did not reside on the premises during last season, and the house was unoccupied from the year previous until the first of May last, when they moved into it for a summer's residence. An inquest was eld upon the body, but no trace or clue that could, lead to the identificatien of the causes of the death of “ceased was ascertained. ‘The family of Mr. Coster have no knowledge of such person ever being on the premises, ond from the narrow Sperture of the cistern, it is impossible that the deceased could have accidentally fallen into it. The body must either have been placed therein to avoid detection from murder, or the person must have forced herself into the entrance to commit suicide. ‘The latter supposition is not robable, and there is every reason to believe that the female has been murdered, and then thrown inte the cis- tern to prevent discovery. ‘Ihe family weed the water from the Istof May for domestic purposes until within a when it became so nauseous to the smell, as to investigation resulting in this mysterious trans~ few day cause th action. Tue Licht Guarv.—This magnificent company left town last evening for Boston, to attend the Bunker Hill celebration.

Supper DeatH.—During the afternoon of yesterday, James Walsh, a fruiterer, living at No.200 Varick street, complaimed of being unwell, and after lying on the bed fora few moments suddenly expired. No cause can be assigned for this sudden demise, asthe result of the coro- ner’s investigation hed not been ascertained—it is sup- posed to have been aporlexy. Axornen —Elizabeth Williams, a colored woman, aged upwards of 90 years, died suddenly at No. 90 Troy street, esterday afternoon. She had no physician attending Ker; itis supposed her death was occasioned by dropsy. Tie Suicipe.—An inquest was slto held at the City Hospital, on the body of John Leonard, native of Ireland, whose attempt to co published at length in the Herald of last Wednesda: was by occupation a fisherman, and had a very bad ul rated sore log, which rendered him go helpless and loath. some, that he applied to be sent to the Hospital at Bellevue, and while the sick carriage was at the door, he cammitted the fatal act. The jury after hearing the evidence, re- turned a verdict, that John Leonard came to his death by entting his throat with a razor. Ixquesr.— Yesterday the Coroner held sn inquest on he body of the watchman, whose sudden death while on is station at the Post Office in the Park,on Wednesday t, was reported in the Herald of yesterday.

As money becomes plenty in all sections of the Union, the demand for the stock increases, and independent of any European demand, the price is likely to rise us high as in 1831, when the 6's were at 120.
