Arr Tremendous Turn-out of the People—Large Procession, &c. OUR BOSTON CORRESPONDENCE. Boston, Nov. 27, 1852. The Webster obsequies, to take place in this city on Tuesday next, will probably be characterized by more grandeur and solemnity than any similar pageant ever witnested in this country. From all parts of the cityand the surrounding country wo hear the note of preparation, and the Committee of the City Council who have tho matter in charge are executing their trust with unusual energy and ¢fficiency. They have invited the Boston Brigade, under Brigadier Gen. Andrews, to escort the pro- cession, and, from preeen: indications, tho military, not only of the city but also of the State, will turn out in large numbers, altogether forming one of tho most interesting and imposing features of the display. The Massachusetts Society of the Cincinnati, (of which Mr. Webster was & member,) will turn out in a body. The Cape Cod Association will also join the procession. Mr. Webster was an honorary mem- ber of this society. The New Hampshire Logisla- ture havo resolved to take » part in the ceremonies; anda special committee bas already waited upon Gen Tylor, the Chief Marshal, to make the noces- sary arrangements. They will be the guests of the ** Bons of New Hompsbire,” and will quarter at the Revere House. Gen. Frank Piereo will accompany the delegation, by special request, and join in the ceremonies ofthe day. Tho directors of the various railroad companics betwoon Concord and Boston have tendered the members of tho Legislature a free pass over their respective roade.

The natives of the State of Maine, residing in this city, numbering more than a thousand, meet to- night to make arrangements to join the procession.

Dut nature is not unjust She has creatid on tnexhaurtible storehoure, from which thore wants can be amply supplied through the agency of labor, To this great storcboure every man has right of access; @ right founded upon the imperative wants of his nature; a right which never can depirt from him, ro long as those wants r¢muin a condition of his be- ing. Nature is inexorable ven if men suffer them- relves tobe plundered of this natural right; if ai! means of access to the great storeboure be forbidden to them; for- bidden by powers ogainst which they are unable to von. tend; even then, nature will mot abate a jot of her de- mands, You must feed. and clothe. and shelter her. No excuse. no off put. If you do not the penalty is death— slow, lingering, indesciibable death, Is it true that countless millions of the human family have, from age to age. paid thia terrible penalty ? Is it true that every hu. being who ro died was cut cff from Mis right or his accers to his Father's storehoure—the earth? Is it true that (except by some ¢pectal calamity) no human being who owmdaressonable quantity of land ever perlshed of burger? The government that cuts man off from this firet great natural right, ought at the same time to free that man trom the oppressive demands of his nature, And jf a government have not the abi ity to set him free from bunger. cold, ard his other inexorable wants, then that government has no just power to deprive him of his Light to go to the great siorebouse and labor for thelr sup- ply.
