Theatrical and Musical. Bowery Tararxe.—Well may it be said that the powerful attractions offered at this splendid theatre sare the causes of its unprecedented success; and last night was the gala night of the week, A most magnifl- cent bill was presented, and the good taste of the ma- ager was truly appreciated. The first piece presented was the sterling drama of * The Power of Gold,”’ and it ‘was put upon the stage ina manner that filled with pi oe pe admiration all who beheld it. The accom- plished and popular Mirs Wemyss sustained the cha- racter of Ester in her beautiful and effective style, while that of Isaac Ben Samuel was most truly per- eonated by Mr. Gilbert ‘The piece is one of thrilling interest. and played with a cast that must make it one of the standard pieces of the Bowery. With this splea- did drama, the beautiful ballet divertisement of “Guil- laume Tell” was repeated. together with the new drama of “Mike Martin, the Daring Robber.” In the drama are several characters which we shall here mention, ‘especially that of Hannah, by Mrs. Sutherland. wife to Barnaby Root, who ix ase as @ sentinel to guard against the approach of the robber, but who becomes captivated with the pleasant manuers of Martin, to the no little cbagrin of her rustic husband. Of Mr. Ste- ens, we have said that he excels in the ebaracter of the highwayman, while the others engaged in the piece have sustained their parts with credit, Next week, new attractions will be offered. which cannot fuil to bo as acceptable as those of the past. Broapway Tuearar.—The performances were the fame as on the previous evening—tho “ Witch of ‘Windermere’? taking the lead, in the person of Mrs. ‘Watts, who represents the character with mueh spirit. ‘The grand diyertisement, comprising the “Pas Tartar,” 4 Des Fleurs,” “Grand Pas de Deux,’ “the Regnlar Jockey,” and the “National Polka’’ followed, and were received with rapturons applause. ‘The entertainments concluded with the new bullet, in one act, of “LeJeune Matelot,”’ in which the principle strength of the troupe Rneery The grand bullet of “Foletta, or the En- chanted Bell,” will be acted on Monday and Tuesday nights for the last time. We would take the liberty of saying that that which is intended kindness, and a compliment to the dancers—we mean the encore. must be rather distressing to them in such weather this, and that the simple expression of the approbation of the audience, without obliging the dancers to go through the performance a second time, wonld be quite sufficient. Those who appear in this character before the public, are no doubt exeouraged, and, indeed, fi tered, when warmly ‘and generously applauded; when’ the applause is s0 decided as to mean an encore, they think it would be a slight to the audience not to obey their wishes, and, therefore. they comply with them, although itis attended with great fatigue, es- pecially at this season of the year. But seme conside- ration for the amount of physical exertion which the “poetry of motion”? requires, should always influence ‘the audience to measure the gratification of their wishes by the expenditure of labor which it inyol: ‘On the continent of Europe. the applause of the hi claquers—those who are paid a0 much a night for ap- lauding anything and everything—is sometimes mis- ken for that of the audience generally; but there are no claquers at the Broadway—the applause there is genuine, Nationa Turatne.—Of all the places this side of the gold region, for real enjoyment and hearty laugh, the National is certainly not the least, for Burke is there, and by his superior comic personations of comic cha- racter, keeps the house in an uproar of delight all the time. His Ichabod Crane, in the drama of “ Murrell, the Land Pirate,” is certainly one of his best parts.— The part of Murrell, by Mr. Tilton, was an excellent eharacter, and that gentleman is well fitted to fill it, be. ing possessed of great self possession, and a right co: ception of the ways of the plunderer. Tho scenes are thrilling, and throughout filled with interest, such as will gain upon the favor of an audien The new looal drama of “ ThreejYears After,” loses none ef its attrac- tions; but on the contrary. is nightly greeted with cla- mors of applause. ‘The scenes are all familiar, which ‘ive it a four fold interest. and which have gained for it more admirers than any previous local piece, for which the National is so celebrated. The “College Boy” was also performed, in which Miss Mestayer performed the part of Fanny Curry to the delight of the audienc while that of Dabster, by Mr, W. B. Chapman, was done in a style that drew down the whole hou The way of the National is onward, all the time, and wo greatly mistake if its coffers will not compare with those of any other establishment, while Chanfrau is at the helm, Bunron’s Turatne.—Last evening, Morton’scomedy. in three acts, of “Begone Dull Care, or a School for Grown Children,’’ was played for the first time for-se- veral years. The cast introduced the whole talent of tho company, and the style in which each gentleman acquitted himself, reflected credit upon tho establish- ment, and afforded a great intellectual treat to the audience. Burton, as Old Revel, was full of point and spirit. He did every justice to the author, and Brough- am, as Young Revel, moved pari passu with his senior, Mr. Lynne’s Ryland was aa very excellent display of artistic talent. The music and dancing were loudly applauded, as were the whole of the performances, from beginning ‘to end. There was. all things considered, » yar house; but, for Mr. Burton's sake, we should like to be able to say that there was not standing room. Madame Augusta will appear at this theatre on Monday evening, ina new grand ballet{called, “ The Pirate’s Isle,” and will be assisted by Mons. Frederick, Mons. Schmidt, Miss Avnie Walters, M’lle Kennedy, nd a fullcorps de ballet. Curisty’s Mrvstrets are coming out, during the en- suing week, with a full programme of novelties of tho most racy and varied description. The “Voyage Mu- sicale”’ will have several new touches in it, and in fact, their concerts will be more brilliant than ever They are the racicst set of Ethiop' hat ever shook a tamborine or thrummed a banj Castix Ganpen.—To-morrow evening is fixed upon for the opening of the season at Castle Garden, and we have no hesitation in saying that with the immense ray of musical talent brought together on this occusio added tothe many other attractive features of these summer fetes, there is no possibility of doubting the entire success of this liberal and attractive experiment. In these times of doubt and dread, when our citizens should repair for amusement to well ventilated places of public resort. and when it is generally known that 5 bey air is absolutely beneficial to mental and bodily ealth, where can we turn. in order to inhale refreshing ‘and invigorating sea and land breezes better than the eharming location of Castle Garden? No city in Ame- ica or kurope possesses a hell of euch splendor and moegnitude; and those who would value their health and onjoy in perfectian a rich musical repast, should be nightly visiters with their wives and families, Among the many attractive features, we will morely enume- wate the Distin family, the Germania Society, Gung'l’s Band, Messrs, Hoffman, Herr Stopel, M. Gaffer, Fanny ‘Frazer, M’lle. Lovarney, Miss M. O’Connor, Louisa Dis- tin, &c.,who will all appeatin a grand concert. And all ‘this amusement enjoyed for 25 cents! We shall not be astonished if the Garden be crowded during the entire season. This evening the usual concert will be given, consisting of several beautiful sacred pieces. + Musicat Movemexts.—Mr. Davis, the manager of the operatic French troupe, of New Orleans, arrived here on Friday evening, on his way to France, where he goes to renew a part of his company. His enterprise in the ‘capital of Louisiana was not very successful last sea- son; the dreaded cholera, and lateiy, the crevasse, have been very injurious to theatrical performances at the sheatre d’Ortcans; but indefatigable as Mr. Davis, he wishes not to “ give up,’ and will undoubtedly re- turn tothis country with an excellent treupe, and we understand with the famed “ Prophéte’ of Meyerbeer. Why will not Mr. Davis try a winter season in New York? We are certain that it would take, Sicnora Crocca.—This charming danseuse, who had dast week a law suit against Mr. Hamblin, the manager -of the Bowery Theatre, has finally settled a J’amiable that affair with him, and we are glad to understand that she will soon resume her dancing. The Italian Ballerina is entitled to the patronage of the public, by ‘whom she has always been treated with great favor since her first appearance in New York, FOREIGN THEATRICALS. Mr. Anderson has been playing an engagement in Manchester. The Manchester Examiner says:—Mr, An- derson, as will be seen by the advertisement, has ‘now arrived at the positively; and though in every other xespect a man of * change.’ we have yet to learn that nis word can be as mysteriously metamorphosed as his hats and handkerchiefs. Still we should desire him to zemain for a hort time longer. as we are convinced that many of our townsmen, and especi r coun- try friends, have yet to be astonished at his per- formanees. ‘The Ezaminer also gives the following items:—Mr. Templeton, after an absence of five years from Man- chester, gave one of his musical evenings in the Free- trade Hail, on Tuesday evening. May 16, Some of his songs were finely delivered, particularly “Tell hor I Jove hor.” and the famous hunting song, “ Old Tow- ler’? in which Mr. Teapleton almost carried us back to the days of Incledou, ‘there was a good deal of racy arecdote mixed up ina pleasant manner, by the vo- oalist, during the progress of the evening; the slight ‘memorials of the composers whose music he sang being emong the most interesting. Mr. Templeton gave another of his selections at the Athen@um, on Thurs- day evening, In the former of these entertainments he was assisted by Miss Keaneth, who sang a couple of ‘ballads very beautifully, aud by the band of the 30th legiment through the conrteous permuasion of Col. Nich+l, A piece which they introduced, consisting of selodies from various operas, was played with great musical skill. and met with the applause so well me- rited. It is the intention of Mr. Templeton to revisit Manchester on his return from Scotland, about the month of October. ‘Those of our readers who pay any attention to what 4s going on upon the American stage, are, no doubt, vuiliar with the name ot F, 8 Chanfrau, who appears to be a great favorite with the New York public. Should he visit England next season, as it is said he in- tends to do. the people of Manchester will have an op- portunity of seeing his Mose, in the new piece entitled “ Life in New York.” On Monday evening. May 14th, Mr. H. J. Wallack took a benefit at the ‘Theatre Royal, Manchester, and retired from the management of that theatre, The house will be closed until June 5th, when it will be re- opened with an italian operatic company, The Sunday ws of May Lith gives the following: — “The reappearance of Madile. Atboni, last night, at her Majesty's Theatre, following on the departure ‘from the stage of her famed contemporary, Jenny Lind, compensated in a great degreo for that re- gretful event, and was hailed with a spirit of enthusiasm that must have proved most gratifying to her feelings, The announcement that this artist would appear, and in her eriginal character, that of Angelina, in Rossini’s charming opera, “ Conerento- Ja,” had its full effect, and drew a crowded and fashion- ably attended houre, Every box and stall had its oc- -eupants, from the pit, which was densely crowded, to the lofty roof of tho theatre. Che opera was reprodaced with every attention to effect, Alboni, who bas been in Paris for some weeks since hor last appearance, ocow- pied in completing an engagement, seemed, we were favorite | to observe, xcellont health; and in voice was never, perhaps, heard to greater effect. Her exo- e was brilliant im the extreme, hor fine musical education and great flexibility of organ, In the duet, “ Un soave non so che,” in which Signor Cal- rolari, as Don Ramiro, borea part, she sang with exqui- site finish. The duet was enthusiastically applauded, and Sig. valzolari bore his rs init ina manner worthy of his association with the c! cantatrice. His voice is a tenor of great sweetness, displaying wonderful execution, and t elegance of finish; thus compen- sating for som fight dey of weakness in the organ. Lablache playe his phew ies character, Don Magnitico, in which he has no rival, and elicited those frequent bursts of applause which’ are so familiar to his ear in ag ebaracter which the unrivalled buifo undertakes. In the delightful aria, “Nacqui all’affano,” Madile. Alboni achieved a great triumph, eliciting the warm- est plaudits; but the crowning effort of the evening was the finale, wherein she sings “Non piu mesta. ‘The grace, the elegance of finish, the rapidity of ex cution of the difficult passages of this most diffcult, yet charming morceau, was dazzling beyond expression, and excited a perfect furore of applause, the ovations roving the high estimation in which the fair artist is eld. Bouquets fell in showers at her feet, thickly strewing the stage, and the house, in one mighty burst, rapturously proclaimed for an encore, which the fair Cenerentola gave with increased effect, again callin, forth the Sroma plaudits of the house, and addition: tributes of bouquets, The applauses og the fall of th curtain were renewed, and res+lved thémselves into a general call for the charming songstress, to whom the audience were desirous to pay a personal tribute of homege. She was led on by Lablache, and having in this distinct manner again ‘reocived the unequivocal admiration of the house, she appeared evidently much affected by ber sense of so kind and generou: tion. Again she retired, called for, when she an deep acknowledgment of her gratitude, the emotion of her heart exhibiting itself in her fine expressive fea- tures and in her eloquent and graceful gesture. Wo congratulate the management on this reception of the accomplished Alboni, whose acting in the Cenerentola was worthy of her high reputation asa vocalist, and herself upon the fresh laurels which her re-appearance on @ British stage has added to her well merited ch: let of fame. The announcement that Meyerbeor's chef d’enure, “Robert le Diable,” would be produced, for the first time in this country, in its entire form, at the Royal Italian Opera, and that Miss Catherine Hayes would sustain the part of Alice, created an excitement in the musical and fashionable world, equal to that produced by the retirement of Jenny Lind from the operatic stage. The public, however, were doomed to be disap- pointed, as faras the latter expectation was concerned, for, owing to the indisposition of Miss H., she was un- able to appear in that favorite character, which was undertaken, at a short notice, by Mad. Dorus Gras, and at, wo believe, the express desire of her Majesty. We may here observe, in justice to Madame Dorus Gras that she executed the difficult task assigned to her ina manner that reflects the greatest credit on her skill as ® vocalist and her ability as an actress, both of whieh were rewarded by the applause of the audience. Signor Salvi was an effective representative of Roberto, and sang the music of the part with his usual care aud judgment. Signor Lavia, as Rambaldo, was excveding- Vy g00d, but Signor Marini was not, in our judgment, © best adapted to fill the part of Bertram, altho well fitted to fill other characters with credit to himself. Mad’lle Corbari sustained the part of Princess Isabella respectably. The cast, as a whole, was rather weak, but the choruses, orchestra, and mise en scene were a mirable, and excited enthusiastic applause. The Queen and Prince Albert honored the performance, but they did not arrive until after the firstact. The house was densely crowded, and presented a splendid appearance. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Kean, haying terminated a bril- Nant and most successful engagement at the Dublin Theatre Royal, re-appeared at the Haymarket, in their favorite characters of Sir Walter and Lady Amyott, in Lovell’s play of “ The Wife's Secret.’? The house was fully attended, and the reception given them by the audience was in the highest degree cordial and gratify- ing. The return of these popular artists to the Hay- market boards will, we anticipate, lead to the produc- tion of some dramatic novelties of importance. Mr. Lovell’s new play, which has been for some time in the hands of Mr. Kean, will, probably, be the first produc- tion in which they will be engaged. It will be a pity if their talents be not made available in some dramatic work with which the public are not already familiar. An opera, entitled “ The Blind Sister,”’ of which the music, with a few exon pone is by Auber, was produced during the week at the Princess's, It appears, by re- pert, to have beon a weak and,trifling affair, and very imperfectly pleyed, but not having been present at its representation, we can offer no opinion on its merits until next week. The Birmingham Musical Festival will positively take place on the 4th, 6th, 6th, and 7th of September next. Mr. Costa is to be the conductor, and the band, selected by him, will be superior to any that has hither- to been heard in England. The committee are actively engaged making engagements amongst the best vocal artistes in the kingdom. The Drury Lane Theatre was opened on the 9th of May, by a German operatic company, The Sunday Times says :—We do not hesitate in according to the German company, which opened the above establish- ment on Wednesday last, the fullest credit for high desert, notwithstanding that eur opinions upon the national part of the question remain unchanged. In candor, then, the troop of artistes brought m the opera at Amsterdam, and ushered into the presence of London audience, for the first time,on Wednesday night, is worth hearing. The voices are good, the or- chestra is excellent, the chorusses fect, and @ con- siderable amount of dramatic skill and careful manage- ment are displayed throughout all the arrangements. Pork Packina 1x THE West—Nvmaer or Hoas SLavGHTERED IN THE pasT Season, &c.—It has been very difficult to arrive at the correct estimate of the number of hogs slaughtered in this part of the West; but with our own inquiries on the subject, aided by the kind assistance of some of our friends among the dealers in provisions, we are enabled to lay before our readers a statement which we rely on as mainly correct. The Cincinnati Chronicle, at the close of the packing season, estimated the number of hogs killed on the Ohio and tributaries, as about equal to last year’s report, though less at many of the prominent points. Say:— Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, and Wabash. Mlinois, Missouri, and Mississippi. . Making in the whole, 1,581,000, be 1,000 over last ear’s yield in the West. Under this aspect of the sub- hr it is difficult to predict for the future; but as the stock is larger than it was last year, and the exports for the first quarter of the year to the Ist of April, were about the same, it is most likely that no higher rates will prevail for the bulance of the season than last year; and without a further export demand, it looks as if the market might be depressed, and lower prices would prevail. ‘The amount of exports to the Pacific will not equal the extra demand for the urmy last year, and hence it is fair to infer that we shall not occupy as favorable ground for good prices, and would caution our friends against large expectations. ‘The markets abroad are generally dull, and if the stock of meats on hand at this date should remain in this country, there is no probable chance of any ad- vance. In regard to the article of lard, it does not ap- pear that the stock is exeessive. A large amount of meat was put upin long middles, and the price in the packing season was too low to induce renderers to use the side; and asa large amount is held by operators, who can afford to lay out of their investment, it may be regarded as asafe article, and more likely to pay than brine meats. The chief demand at this point, for California, has heen for side bacon, and the stock here has been reduced, so that it may be relied on as likely to do well. The same may be said of shoulders, of which the stock is not equal te the average of last year, and the price may keep up to rates that will pay.

Tue Exreprrion to Tne Great Saur Laxe.— We learn from the St. Louis Republican, that the expedition for a trigonometrical and nautical survey of the Great Salt and Utah Lakes, and the surrounding country, lying in the northern portion of Upper Cali- fornia, is now being fitted out in that city, It has been organized, says the Republican, by Col. J. J. Abert, of the topographical bureau, and the command given to Captain Howard Stansbury, aseisted by Lieut. J. W. Gunnison, of the topographical engineer; which may well be callea the workingmen of t ‘the point of departure in the special examins this part of the great and mostly unexplored basin, is Fort Hall, on the Lewis Fork of the Columbia river, and thence directly south, by a new route, to the Salt Lake, which forms so remarkabie a feature in that in- teresting valley between the Siorra Nevada and the Wahsatch and Timpanozee mountains, now chiefly held by the Uteh tribes of Indians, and in which the Mormons have made a settlement on the inner edge of the basin, near Utuh Lake. ‘The survey will particular. ly develope the agricultural resources of the country, with a view to the supply of our forts and troops sta- tioned in that conntry. as also to embrace the astrono- mical, meteorological and other purposes which shall give a complete view of its phyrical geography, and then explore another now route, on the return of the expe- dition, by which access may be had to tho great basin Canina a Prixst.—We learn, that yesterday afternoon a caning affuir came off on Royal street.

Pleoyune, Jel, te ndly Wistt to Little y 2 Deputation, {#rom the Fort Smith Herald } On the 8d cf March last. a party of Camanches artiy- od at Little River. in the Seminole country,in company with Jesse Chisholm. Cherokee, which wo mentionod some time since. Through the kindness of Lt. Flint, 6th Inf., and Aid to Gen. Arbuckle, we have been put in possession of the proceedings of Council called by the Seminoles for the purpose of receiving the Caman- ches and hearing their talk. ‘The del:gation was bead- ed by Oh-he- we-kee, = w to Ta-pa-que-na, the Prin- cipal Chief. who made the treaty with the United States Commissioners—Stokes and Arbuckle. in 1834, Oh-he- we-kee is represented as being a sensible man, and is disposed to be friendly with the whites, and to keep the treaty made by his uncle ‘The party went to the Sem- inole agency and pitched their tents in the yard of the agent.M. Duval, i.sq , who did everything in his power to convince them of the friendly feelings of the whites, as they had some doubts in consequence of the difficul- ties last year on the Santa Fe road from Independence. ‘The Seminoles wero headed by their Chief, Wild Cat, who acted as speaker, Wild Cat propounded several questions, in council, to the Camanches, such as: What ‘Was the object of their visit? whether they come on « friendly visit, or were they bearers of a particular mes- sage or talk from their nation? &o. To all of which the Camancke Chief answered in a very sensible man- ner, ‘The interrogatories and answers would oceupy too much space in our columns; but they go to show, very plainly, the sagacity and shrewdness of Wild Cat, for which he is remarkable; and the anxiety on the part of the Camanches for peace with the whites. Wild Cat, however, gave them # good talk, by advising them to be at peace—spoke of the whites as being strong one- mies and strong friends; and said they, the Seminol: had tried war themselves, and had mad found the President cat he was kind to his red children, after so much difficulty =iney never expeeted to be enemies aguin— thought it best for all the Indians to be at peace with the whites —that they were as powerful as they said. and more 80 than the Camanches could imagine—advised them to sottle and raise corn and stock. The Seminoles desired that the Camanches would, also, always be friends with them—they might sometimes meet, and they always wanted to bo friendly, as the samo Great Spirit was tho Father of all alike—that the road was open and the path smooth, and that if they would come oftener and get acquainted with them, there never would be any trouble with the whites, as they would fird the whites to be good friends, and never would ixterrupt them first, when travelling through their country, &o. The Camanche Chief stated that the Northern Ca- manches were the people who committed depredations on the whites, but were now disposed to be friendly, and wished to know if the whites would receive them as friends, and if so, he would inform them. The Southern Camanches, to which he belonged, had never broken the treaty they made with the United States, and they intended to observe it strictly, He said he was not the head chief at home, but that his people would place confidence in what he told them, The Seminoles gave them a letter to the several tribes of neighboring Indians, and to the whites. to re- ceive them friendly, as they had come in on a friendly visit, and recommends the Chiefs of the Cherokees, Creeks, Choctaws, and all others to uso their influence by advising them to stop the troubles on the Santa Fe road, and endeavor to bring about universal peace. The letter was signed by the Seminole Chiefs. Mr. Duval, agent, gave them every assurance on behalf of the government of their friendship, and their willing- ness to forgive the Camanches, provided they would desist from committing dedradations upon the citizens of the United States when travelling over the plains, The Chief desires the whites, when they see the Camanches in the prairies, to hoist a white flag, that they may know they are friends; that they will meet their white brethren and trade with them. After the council was over with the Seminoles, the Camanches went into the Creck nation, to pay them a friendly visit. They have, ere this, returned to their people and informed them of the feelings and dispo- sition of their white brethren, We sincerely hope the visit of the Camanches may induce them to ceaso their depredations, and become substantial friends to the United States, The Che: Re it Travelling Yet—Express ‘ain from Buifalo. Burravo § May 18, 1849. Knowing no means through which |, a private citizen, can obtain redress against ® corporate monopoly, such ss the Albany and Buffalo Railroad Company, for the insults and impositions I have received at tts hands, permit mal through your paper, to at least caution the Public against similar injustice, by relating my expo- rience in the fast travelling line, and the way they put folks “‘ through’ by daylight!" I took my passage for Albany, on the above date, from Buffalo, and paid the “ reduced” fare of $9 75 for 16 hours’ ride ; and,on put- ting my Luggage on board, was asked $1 for extra bag- gage, and, with reverence be it spoken, for permission to tie my dog in the baggage cur, $1 50. [ rather grum- bled at the latter charge, having paid but 25 cents fore for the same dog, but handed over a $8 bill, and was told by the baggage conductor, George Barlow, that he had nochange, but would settle with me in Albany; and so he did! Fancy my amazement, on reaching that place, in the éonfusion of an arrival in the night, en being informed that 1 must pay not ouly the $1 60 for my dog, but, instead of $1 extra baggage, $3 64, both of which | paid, and for the latter took a receipt, which I obtained with difficulty for the former sum, being told, by the said G. Barlow, that ‘the company gave no receipts !”” Now, to compare travelling, at the “reduced” fares in 1849, with the old ones in 1848, I must state, in conclusion, that I paid on the same road, last year, for the same lu and dog, $12 25, and this ear $1489. “ Reduced fares,” and“ through by day- ight,” with a vengeance, R.

Office, OL Lispe~ | al, tiver would not | INTELLIGENCE BY THE MAILS, Tera Our Washington Correspondence, Wasminarton, June 7, 1849. Mr. Clayton. Mr. Clayton is emphatically the Prime Minister, and he has many admurable qualities for the posi- tion. He does not possess the quick, deep, and sparkling intellect of Meredith—he has not that stern, uncompromising, superlatively ultra whig temperament of Ewing—he has not that Yankee characteristic of briskness in business which dis- tinguishes Collamer—he is not personally, perhaps, more a favorite with General Taylor than Johnson, but no man of the cabinet is, we apprehend, in any degree better qualified for the State Department than the great man of little Delaware. Tle has that superior experience in political affairs without which theablest man, as Secretary of State, would bea tyro. He is well versed in European history, and possesses that calm sagacity of obser- vation which the exigency requires. He has ne bitter national animosities to mislead his judgment ~~he has no particular prejudice to combat in hold- ing to our international neutrality with all nations —he is a lover of peace for the sake of peace, and strictly a conservative in reference to foreign as well as domestic difficulties. He has no particular partiality for men of hair-triggers on international controversies—he prefers the field of negotiations to the field of battle, and eertain peace in prefer- ence even to the hazards of war, if the national honor in its real interpretation can best be sub- served by peace. He is desirous of preserying peace with Europe, as long as consistent with the integrity of the United States to themselves. His object in the foreign appointments has been to secure steady, elear-headed men—such men as will not fle tate a rupture for the notoriety it may give. He is averse to all crusades eutside the Union for the propagation, by arms, of republican ideas, unless in self-defence; and equally opposed to driving to extremities the abolitionists of the North, or the slaveholders of the South. | As a party man he 1s decided, but not malicious; as a politician, he is cunning, cautious, and even timid at times, where boldness would be the judi- cious card, : We believe him to be ambitious. We have every disposition to suppose that he is at least as much interested in the succession as was Mr. Buchanan on his introduction into the State De- partment. We apprehend that his associates to some extent share in this presumption, and that General Taylor himself participates in the infe- rence without the slightest inconvenience, and with perfect indifference. We believe that Mr. Clayton is actuated by the very natural desire for the success of General Taylor’s administration; but we also suppose that he is vigilant against any of his, colleagues advancing to any admitted su- periority of position with either General Taylor or the whig party—to that position which he is ad- mitted to occupy as a whig leader. of We believe him to be anxious to conciliate Mr. Clay without losing the support of Mr. Crittenden, and desirous of softening Mr. Calhoun without pro- voking Col. Benton. In short, the policy of Mr. Clayton, asa diplomatist, as a statesman, and as a politician, is conciliation. If, therefore, he has more of the boldness which commands the respect of enemies, he hay none of that persecuting spirit which provokes their revenge. | The world is busy. Action—action is the word. Mr. Clayton 1s not aman of action, according to the meaning of the term as now applied e 18 not the man, we apprehend, to seize a great move- ment in its inception, and to push it through. He is for doing the work that is to be done, and no more, and no less. But when revolutions and old srses are in a state of fusion, it is easy to admit that his policy is the safest and best. At such a time as this, with such a man as Clay- ton at the head of the State Department, the coun- try feels at least a sense of security, if not of pro- gression; and a conviction that, if we are not ad- el we are not receding in the great ideas of the age. What may be the desires or the prospects of Mr. Clayton, for 1852, we shull yet have time enough to consider. We are satisfied that the country will feel secure from war, if he can prevent it, and. that no experiment will be tried likely to lead to difficulties, with his consent. Without being a bold statesman, he is prudent and decided; and if not brilliant or dashing, he is at least sagacious and. vigilant. Reet: ‘ should resign, it will be that the duties of the office are heavy, and may safely be entrusted to other hands, and not from any disgosition to relin- quish his support of the administration.
