He would, therefore, be neither true to the whig party nor to himself to retain any of them A yearago it was a theme of remark with him and with his frends, that his requests, in behalt of some few of his friends, found not the least favor with the cabinet.

Although Vice-President of the United States, with a character and life of uaspotied purity, his recom- mendations wese treated with utter indifference by each and all of the memers of the cabinet. Now, how the same cabinet geatry would be glad to fawn about and most obsequiously do his every bidding. But they are net the men for him, and he will not retain them.

Yesterday was a day of mourning ia Philadelphia; and even if municipal recommendations had not been issued, the masses could not have been in- different to the sad ceremonies which were then performing im the federal capital. At twelve e’clock the bell of the State House commenced sending forth its full and solemn sounds; and be- fore its echoes had died away, every church and fire bell in the city had takea up the sad, solema, notes. In a few minutes at most, stores were closed, the windows of dwelling houses bowed, and a population of nearly half a auilion gave out- ward manifestations, not of cold and regulated grief for the loss of the chief magistrate of this great nation, but of that unmistakeable sorrow which cannot be called forth save for those that are near and dear to us The late aduunistration might emphatically be called a Philadelphia adminisiration, so far as the use of pewer aud the dispensation of patronage were concerned. ‘The Secretary of the Treasury was @ Philadelphian ; and although Mr. Clayton hailed from Delaware, be could only be reached through our eity. The change will be sensibly felt in certain quarters; and uvotwithstanding par- tieular parties are sapguine enough, and foolish enough, to suppose that there will be a general sweep in the Post Odlice aud Custom Louse, it is not uplikely—nay, it is almost certain—that our worthy collector, W. D. Lewis, will have te give place to one Jess obnoxious to the politicians of the city, county and Stare. His unpopularity, naturally enovgh, has grown out of the dis: atment of otlice beggars; and yet, to my positive know- ledge, Mr. Lewis never mad ppointment without the * advice and coasent” of those that were considered the grand suehems of the whig party.

I Ihave been stopping here a few days, admiring the many beauties that cluster around this spot. The villege itself is a gem. The streets are pl d with long rews of shade trees, half con- cealing, half revealing, the neat white dwellings, with their pretty parterres, now sweet with the frogrance of the rose and woodbine.

It is, indeed, a charming retreat, commanding a fine view of the valley above, und which the taste of the present proprietor is making a paradise of fruits and flowers. 5 ‘There are several public buildings in the village, one of which is now the residence of the famous Bristol Bill; but I will not stop to deseribe them, for I find | have already forgotten to tell you about the mountain. * Last Saturday, a party of young ladies and gen- tlemen of the place, started a pic-nie excursion for the top of Ascutney. Iwas fortunate enough to receive un invitation to join them; why, I can hardly tell; perhaps they thought me some dis- Unguished stranger, and might be a great acquisi- tion, but I guess they don’t think so now. How- ever, | thank them most cordially for their kind- ness; never did 1 enjoy anything of the sort more exquisitely, or make the acquaintance of more in- telligent and entertaining company. It was com- sed of the flower of the youth and beauty of this Beeusidal place, and did I feel at liberty to imdi- vidnalize, could give a galaxy as bright as youmay gather in Gotham. j But 1] was telling you of the excursion. Our headquasters was the Windsor House, where we gathered preparatory to starting. Mr. Simonds, the gentlemanly proprietor, kindly consented to accompany the party to the foot of the moantain, ard see that we were fully equipped and rightly started on our ascent. And here let me whisper @ word in your private ear; you will find your host a most pleasant, gentlemanly man, doing the honors of his far famed house, and a better deserved fame was never earned, with the greatest delicacy and taste, making you feel as though you were loung- ing on your own sofas, in your own drawing room, while he supplies your inner man with all that is choice and delicious. A six horse coach drew up at the door, and Mr. Simonds began to arrange the company. Do you know how many a New England coach will hold? I never did before. There were twenty-eight in our party, to say nothing of Pat and the three boys. However, we did not all ride in the coach, for a preys ov drawn by a span of magnificent bays, took ix of u The day was lovely. A cool northwesterly breeze juet rustled the leaves and rippled the water, giving elasticity end vigor to every motion. The sky was pure and ef tethomless blue, with here and there a,white fleecy cloud floating in the boundless azure. After a short drive of three miles, we stopped at Aunt Betsey ‘Who doesn’t know Aunt Betsey ? Or, rather, who is there that Aunt Betsy doesn’t know? be sure you stop there on your way up the mountain, and I'll surrender my hat, if she doesn’t seize you by the hand, and after serutinizing your visage, exclaim, * Well, really thiy pleasant face is very familiar, but strange ] cannot call your name now.” Here our party unloaded, and after shaking hands with Aunt Betsey, and robbing her garden of its beautiful rosebuds, (one of whi well remember, a bright- eyed, laughter.

Here we for come thoughiful provided ourselves with canes, o doubt, calculated they would be needed, and brought a hatehet—no we (did) cut them. in good earnest. Butnow — needn't imagine you see a troop of panting, reathless beings, with faces like red roses full blown, pulse up to fever heat, and the perspiration pouring off in streams. No, indeed; nothiag of the sort. We were cool and comfortable, not- withstonding the exercise; for, after walking a lide ways, we seated ourselves on some moss- covered rock, and enjoyed a téte a-téte, or listened to the rustling of the tree tops, as they swayed to and fro in the breeze, As we ascended, we could note our progress in the change of vegetation, the beech giving place to the mountain birch, the birch to the spruce, and then the evergreens growin: dwantich and stunted as we climbed. Two-thire of the way up, we ieached a spring that co: gushing out of the living rock spring of such pure, cool, sweet water, ou can find ouly amon; these green hills of New England.

San Francisco, May HM, 1850. The Herald in Catifornia—The Slavery Threats of lndeandence—The Mines, §e. The independent and fearless course of your paper, on the exciiing questions now agitating the public mind, and in truth on all others, has en- deared it to every true American in California; and thie is shown by the avidity with which it is seized, to (he exclusion of all others, immediately on the e:nval of the steamers, readily commanding one hundred per ceut advance of the 7'vibune and Sun; the price of the Herald being fifty cents, while the Jatter is bat twenty-five cents, and will not bring that co long as a Herald remains unsold. We cup sit heve, afur off, and judge calmly and dispassionately of the merits of the questions at issue, and curse und despise the fire and brimstone clop-trep of some of the extremists of the South, avd loathe end execrate such dirty pot-house poli- licians #s a Hale sad a Giddings, the men of the one idea, which they can never abandon, as it in- volves their political existence. Settle the slavery question, and they slink back into their sloughs and natural uignificance. . Their minds are inca- Pable of grasping with any of the great questions of the day, involving real statesmanship and ex- tensive erudition. I haye travelled over almost every part of Cali- fornia ; heard the question discussed everywhere, and smong all classes, be they from the North or from the South ; and there seems to be but one sen- timent among the people—that slavery is a curse to that country wherever it exists ; hence they op- pose the introduction of it into California, which, as a sovereign State, (or ought to have been ere this,) they have a right to do. But we do not as- sume the right to say to the Southern man, that he shull not take his slaves into a territory belonging equally to him and myself. And should our Sena- tors and Representatives lend themselves to the free soil agitators, to the jeoparditing of the Union, the loss of their political pee in this country will be the smallest part of the sacrifice they will be called upon to sustain at the hands of their con- stituents. ° Dissolve the Union, and the destiny of the coun- try west of the Sierra and Rocky Mountains, is an independent republic. Ou the truth of this you may refy most fully. "Tis as fixed a fact, as the existence of those frozen barriers by which nature hae already divided us. There is scarcely a man to be found in the country, of a different sentiment. The charm in the name and recollections of the Union, is the centripetal force which holds it to its centre. Destroy the harmony of the system, and we, the remoter planets, fly off for ever. And by no possible chain of events, could a union of this county with a Northern oustederacy Ses be eflected, for every man from the slave es, and many from the free, sympathise with the South, believing, as they do, that neither religion nor phi- Janthropy hi d any ‘wat in the motives of these funaties, but originated solely in a morbid desire for notoriety among that class of of the Abby atom stamp, who are lost to all sense of proper decorum. f ou will see, by the papers, that another awful fire has swept away the your heart of our city. The lumber dealers were the only persons whose faces wore a complacent smile; but they have been sadly disappointed, for every one seems fully im- preseed with the utter folly of putting up again any- thing beyond mere shaaties, to be burnt down in a mouth. “And if we were to rebuild the whole of San Francisco with wood, it would scarcely make an impression on the immense quantities now in this place, and augmenting heurly by arrivals from ever bivable part of the globe. ‘¢ are somewhat fearful out here, that the entire mercantile community of the United States have either lost their wits, or, having joined the Millerites, have no further use for their money. No sooner do they hear that any article or opera- tion is paying well here, than they, one and all, from Muine to New Orleans, seem to rash into the market, seize up every available vessel, and hurry themofi. Do they think that we can absorb in a month aJl the lumber in creation? I imagine they do, forall creation is sending it here—China, New South Wales, New Zealand, Peru, and Chili, the Russian settlements, Columbia river, and even the remote tributaries of the Mississippi and Missouri rivers. And steamboats for the Sacramento will soon be as plentiful and quite as cheap us lumber. ‘We bave alraady thirty-four large and small ones in the San Joaquin and Sacramento, which, with the eleven more advertised in the Herald as havii sailed, or to have done so by the Ist April last, wil give us inthree months 47 steamers. The large boats how running to Sacramento city, are the Senator, McKim Hartford, El. Duradoe ‘Major Tompkins, Gold Liunter, Chesapeake, and Governor Dana—8. On their way out, as advertised by the Herald, New World, W. G. Hunt, West Point, J. W. Pease, Duncan C. Pell, Golish, Confidence, Ante- lope, Colonel Stanton, and three propellors, names not remembered, making 19 large size boats to ran to Secramento city, besides the hosts of smaller ones, dropping down from the upper streams with the falling of the freshets, to compete with the larger bouts, by reduction of the fare. But when I tell you that there is engaged in the same trade at least ene hundred fore and aft schooners, and three hundred sail-boats, running at prices at which steamers could not pay expenses, you may form an idea of the probable fate of the steamboat opera tors. Never wus there such a mad community as the Yankee nation. Are they aware that the most liberal estimate puts the present population of Cali- i 120,000, distributed over a surface of from in latitude by 12Vo0flongitade? Buteven hat the entire population were concen- he three points—"* San Francisco,” * Sa- and on the “ San Joaquin,” and that every traveller on the river went in the steamers, is it not plain that even then there would not be trade for 47 steamers, even supposing that number should not be inereased?

Mr. Hartley had left £200 for the best essay on emigration, and appointed the American Minister trustee of the fund. This bequest was also declared void, on the ground that such an essay would epcourage per- sons to emigrate to the United States, and so throw off their allegiance to the Queen! ‘e fancy we have never heard of a prize offer that could not be assailed by objections as strong as those which have arrested Mr. Hartley’s benevolent intentions.

Within the last five days, a little insect has made its appearance upon the ground in the wheat fields, which is destroying whole fields of wheat in an almost incredible short space of time. The first appearance of injury isthe whitening of circular spots, of various sizes, which extend all the field. No visil consuming of any part of the wheat, either above or below the ground, appears to the naked eye, but the insects are found upon the ground in vast numbers, and the grain, where they are found, at once perishes. If they continue to increase for five days to come, as they have for the it five daye, there will not be ‘enough wheat raised in this section of country for home consumption. We hope it may prove other- wise; but we speak of the general opinion of the farmers that we have seen for the last two days. Tux Crors.—The Savannah Georgian, of the 10th inst., says:—We learn from the statements of ‘atlemen that the wheat crop in Upper as well asin East Tennessee, will prove unusually meagre this season. The crop looked quite favorable some four weeks ago, and promised a very good harvest, but since, about the time of the bloom, the rust has been making sad havoc with the crop. Fore’ Markets.
