Thermometer 60, Interesting from San Lake City and the Jains, [From the St. Louis Republican, Oct. 20.) Mr. Stephen Rose, United States Indian Agent for the Shoshones and Utahs,and general acting agent for the Indians in the Salt Lake Vailey, arrived in the city yesterday evening, on the steamer Polar Star. He left Salt Lake City on the Slst of August. At the Sweet Water, about the 13th of September, he encountered a severe storm of cold rain, which lasted until about the 2Ist, during which he lost several apimais, and could not travel. After that time the weather was fine and comfertable He ar- rived at Fort Laramie on the 22d of September, Fort Kearney on the 2d of October, and reached In- | dependence on the 17th At Fort Laramie the government train had ar- | rived with the goods intended for annuities to the Indians. A great number of Sioux Indians were assembled around the fort, awaiting the arrival of | Major Fitzpatrick, who was out on the south fork of the Platte, with the Cheyennes and Arrapa- hoe The indians were quite impatient for his arrival, so much so that the commanding officer of the fort had deemed it prudent to gtve them some provisions. At Fort, Bridger, when Mr. R. passed, a large | number of Snakes, Nez Perces and Fiat Heads, had assembled, expecting presents from the United States government, which reatly they had no right to expect. A portion of the Snakes, and a few of the Fiat Heads, attended the treaty at Fort Lara- mie last year, and there received a few presents. As the Snakes and Fiat Heads are intermixed with these other tribes, they partake of the common ex- pectation, but nono of them were embraced in tho treaty, as they Were out of the jurisdiction of Col. | Mitchell and the Commission to make the treaty. They were friendly, bus much disappointed in not | receiving annuities During the season, the Snakes came in and made a treaty with the Yamponces. After the treaty was | made, they went out on a buffalo hunt, and fell in with # band of Cheyennes, who killed some of the party, and they returned, asking advice and per- mission to go out on a war party, which was deferred until they could be advised by their Great Father. The Snakes, and ovher trives, have sont an em- bassy to Walker, the celebrated chief of the Utahs, | desiring to make a treaty of poase with him and his | tribe No answer had been returned, and it was doubtful whether he would meet them. During the trip in, Mr. Rose’s party experienced no molertation from the Indians. They learned bo- low Fort Kearney that a war party of the Pa ynees were out against the Sioux, and fora few nights uarded their horses, fearing they might be s:oleu, fut they were not molested. They met Mr. Phelps’ train twenty-five miles from | Independence Rock. The Secretary of the Territory was with them, and they were getting sont rey well, The train in which the Judges of Utah, Messrs Reed and Shaffer, were travelling, was mot ‘between the Big and Little Blue—all getting along well. On the Sweet Water and the South Platte they | found innumerable herds of buffalo. Lhe number was greater than any of the company hadever before seen. In the Balt Lake Valley, everything was going on | prosperouely and quietly) The crops this year are | hardly equal to what was expecud, but much | greater than the demand for consumption.

When the sun sets this evening, the mortal remains of Daniel Webster will repore iu the silent tomb. His fu- neral takes place at Murshfield to-day; and, although it is Intended to be a private ono, thousands will attend it from Boston and the surrounding towns. On Wednesday and yesterday hundreds of our citizens departed for the scene of sorrow, in order to join in the ead cortege. The people remaining at home , bave taken action, through their corporate representetives in the Boards of the Com- mon Council. in order to show how sincerely they com- mune with the mourners at Marrhficld. Committees were appointed by the Boards of Aldermen and Assistant Aldermen, as early as Tuesday last, to deliberate upon the most befitting mode of giving expression to the civic sorrow here. Ata meeting of the special committees of both Boards, the following preamble and resolutions were adopted in relation to the funeral to day, and the celebra- tion of the obsequies in this city :-— : Whereas, Itis announced that the funeral of Daniel Webster, the late Secretary of State of the United States, will tama yibee in Marehfield, oa Friday, 29th inst.; there. fore, it Resolved That our fellow citizens be requested to close their stores and places of business on that day, from the hour of twelve. at noon, until sunset; and ,.also, all places of pas amusement in the evening of said day, » Resolved, That the bells of the several churches, and the fire alarm bells, be tolled from noon till two o'clock, P. M, and that seventy minute guns, (being the age of the late Secretary.) be fired from the Battery. Resolved, That the owners and masters of vessels in the harbor, and the proprietors of all public places in the reme and hie praise. They are spread throughout the land, From Esst to West, and from North to South, (which he knew, as he told you, only that he might embrace them in the arms of Tdving patriot- ism,) @ voice of iamentation has already gone forth, such as has not echoed through the land siuce the death of him who was ‘first in war, first in peace, and firet in the hearts of his countrymen.” You have listened. fel- low citizens, to the resolutions which have been submit- ted to you by Col. Heard. I thank him for offering them. HA does honor to his heart, and to those with whom he acts in politics, and whom I have no doubt he wel! repre- sente, that he has stepped forward eo liberally on this oc- casion, The resolutions are emphatic, sir, but I feel that they do not ray too much, No one will think they over- state the magnitude of our losa, who is capable of appre- ciating a character like that of Daniel Webster. Who of us, feliow-eitizens. that has knowa him—that has wit- nesred the masterly skill with which he would pour the full effalgence of his mind on some contested legal and constitut) 1 principle, till what seemed hard and oo- soure became ax plain as day ; who that has seen him, in all the glory of intellectual ascendanoy— Ride on the whirlwind and direct the storm of parliamentary conflict; who that has drunk of the pure fresh air of wisdom and thought in the volumes of bis writings ; who, alas, sir, that has seen him —————in his happier hour Of social pleasu changed for power, that has come within the benignant fascination of his suvilg has felt the pressure of bis hand, and tasted the nw of bis fireside eloquence, will think that the resolu. tions say too much ? No. feliow citizens, we come toge- ther not to do honor to him, but to do justice to ourselves, We obey an Impulse from within. Such a feeling cannot be pent up in solitude We must moot, neighbor with neighbor, citizen with cltizen, man with man, to sympa thize with each other. If we did not, mute nature would rebuke us, The granice hills of New Hampshire, within whore sbadow he drew his first breath, would cry sbamo; Plymouth Keck, which ail but moved at his approach ; the slumbering echoes of this hull, which rung so grandly with his voice; that “ silent but majestic orator” which rose in no mean degree at his command on Bunker Hill— all, all would cry out at our degencracy and ingeati- tude, Mr, Chairman. I do not stand here to pronounce the eulogy of Mr. Webster ; it is not necessary, Kulogy hag already performed her first offices to his memory, As city. be requested to display their flags at half mast during the whole day, and that our fellow-citizens be also re- quested to wear the usual badge of mourning tor thirty days Resolved, That Tuesday, the 16th day of November. be set apart for the obsequies of the late Hon. Daniel Web- ster in this city. cOMDITTER. Aldermen. Assistants, Thomas J, Barr, Tsaac O Barker, Wm. J Peck, Thomas Wheelan, Abraham Moore, Jacob F. Oakley, A. A.

Struggling poverty has been cheered afresh; honest ambition has been kindled ; patriotic resolve has been Jnvigorated ; while all have mourned. Tha poor boy at the village school has taken comfort as he bas read that the time was when Daniel Webster, whove father told him he should go to college if he had to sell every acre of his farm to Pay the expense, laid his head on the shoulder of that fond aud discerning pa- rent, and wept the thanks he could not speak. The pale student who ekes out his scanty support by extra toil, has thered comfort, when reminded that the first jurist, etatesman. and orator of the time, earned with his weary fingers by the miduight lamp the means of securing tie same advantages of education to a beloved brother, “Every true hearted citizen throughout the Unien, has felt an honest pride as he re-peruses the nar- rative, in reflecting that he lives beneath a constitution and vd pee wre under which such @ man has been formed and trained, and that he himself is compatriot with him.

Owing to iliness, or some other cause of abeenoe on his part, the school was kept for a thort, time by ‘Daniel Webster, then a student of lae in. | Mr. Gore’s office; and on this oceasion, forty-seven or forty-eight years ago, and La ebild of ten, our acquaint- | ance, since then never interrupted, began.

May I venture. sir, to add that in the last letter but one which T had the bappiners to receive from him, alluding with a kind of sad presentiment, whieh I could not then fully | appreciate, but which now unmans me, to these kindly | relations of half a century, he adds—*“ We now and then see stretching acrosé the heavens, a clear, blue, cerulean sky, without cloud, or mist, or haze. And such appears to me our acquaintance from the time when I heard yeu for a week recite your les: rons in the little echoolhouse in Short street, to the date hereof? 2ist July, 1852. Mr. Chairman. Ido not dwell upon the traits of Mr. Webster's public character, how- ever tempting the theme. Its bright developements in a | long lite of services are before the world; they are wrought into the annels of the country. Whoever ia after times shall write the history of the United States for the last | forty years will write the life of Danicl Webster: and | whoever writes the life of Daniel Webster. as it ought to be written, will write the history of the Union from the time he took @ leading part in its concerns I prefer to Siludy to those private traits which show the man, the hinéness of his heart. the generosity of his spirit, his freedom from all the bitterness of party, the unaffected gentleness of bis nature In preparing the new edition | of bis works, be thought proper to leave almost every- | thing tomy discretion—as far as matters of taste are concerned. One thing ouly he enjoiaed upon me with | i | an earnestness approaching toa demand. “ My friend.” raid he, “I wish to perpetuate nofeuds. thaveitveda life of strenuous political warfare. I have sometimes, though rerely, and that in self detence, been led to speak of others with severity. I beg you. where you can do it without wholly chonging the char of the speech, and thus do ing errential injustice to me, to obliterate every trace of personality of this kind, I should prefer not to leave a word that would give unnecessary pain to any honeet man, however opposed to me’ But I need not tell you, fellow. citizens, that there is go one of our distinguivhed public men, whore speeches contain less occasion for such an injunction Mr. Webster habitually abstained from the use of the poisoned weapons of personal invective or party edium. No one could more studiously abstaia from all attempts to make a political opponent personally hate- ful. If the ebar © of our congressional discussions has of late years somewhat declived in dignity, no portion of the blame lies at his door, With Mr. Calhoun who, for 4 considerable portion of the time was his chief antago- nist, and with whom he was brought into most direct collision, be maintained friendly personal relations, Ho Kid full justice to his telent and character, You remem: ber the feeling with which he spoke of him at the time of his decease. Mr. Calhoun, in his turn, entertained a just e ate of bis great opponent's worth. He said, towards the close ot bis life, that of all the leading men of the day, “there was not one whose political course had been more strongly marked by a strict regard to truth and honor than Mr Webster's.’ One of the resolutions speaks of a permavent memorial to Mr Webster, I do not know what is contem- plated, but I trust that such a memorial there wil be. [trust that marble and bi in the hands of the mort skilful artists our country has produced, will be put in requisition to re produce to us—and nowhere so ap propnately as in this hali—the lineaments of that noole form and beaming countenance on which we have 60 often gazed with delight But, after all, fellow citizens, the noblest monument must be found in bis works Chere he will live and epesk to us and our children when brass and marble have crumbled into dust. As a repository of political truth and practical wisdom applied to the attuirs of goverpment. 1 know not where we shall find their equal, The works of Burke naturally suggest them- selves to the mind, as the only writings in our language that can sustain the comparison Cerzainly no composi tions in the Englich tongue can take precedence of those of Burke, in depth of thought. reach of forecest, or mag. nifieence of style. I think, however, it may’ be said. without partislity, either national or personal, that while the reader is cloyed at last with the gerge ous fivieh of Burke's diction, there is a severe rim plicity and @ significant plainness in Webster's writing that never tires It is precisely this which ebaracter- izes the staterman in distinction from tbe political phi- losopher, In political diequisition, elaborated in the et, the palm must, perhaps, be awarded to Burke over others, ancient or modern. But in the actual conflicts he renate, man against man, and opinion agaiast opin. : inthe noble war of debate, where measures are to sustained and opposed. on which the welfare of the ntiy and the peace of the world depend—where often line of inteilectual battle is changed in a moment—no as or gather up illus. li tobe decided by a vote. although the reputation of a life may be at stake—all this is a very dif- ferent matter, and here Mr. Webster was Neate f the superlor. Accordingly, we find historically. (ineredi- bie as it rounds, and w Tam ready to say. I will not believe, though it is unquestionably truc,) that these inimitable orations of Burke, which one canoot read with- out a thrill of admiration to his fingers’ ends, actuall: ewptied the benches of parliament.

A correspondent of the Boston T'raveller, writing from Dartinouth, Oct. 26, says:—The news of the decease of Mr. Webster was received here with pro- found grief. w Hampshire’s fae son, Dart mouth’s crownicg ornament, and the world’s beno- factor, is no more. Yesterday, the faculty and siudents of the college, together with citizens of Hanover, held a meeting in the college chapol, to payahumble tribute to his memory. The chapel ‘was appropriately drape@ in mourning, both inside and out, it being the very building in which Mr Webster domiciled in the ontset of his carcer Rev. Dr. Shurtleff, Professor Emoritus of tho col- lego, and fellow student with Mc Webster, was called to the chair. After an appropriate dirge was sung, Dr. Shurtleff addressed the Throne of Graze. Prot Brown then read a sories of resolutions, expressive of respect to the deceased and sympathy with the afllicted friends, and followed the reading with suit- able remarks. He was followed by William H Duncan, Eeq., of Hanover, Jonathan Kittridge, Esq, of Canaan, both graduates of the college, and by Dr. Shurtleff. The resolutions were unani- mously adopted. Dr. Shurtie! spoke of his first meeting with Mr Webster in 1797, when both arrived ay Hanover the saws day, put up atthe same house, and entered college together, (though not in the samo cless); he spoke of Mr. Webster's most prominent character- istic them, and through ee e—attending m rigidly to his own business, keeping the ond of f college course unalterably in view.
