PEELED US to postpone several communications,
some Anniversary proceedings, &C., for all of
which we will entcavor to find room on Friday.
We felt it to be due to Mr. Clement to give him
as early a hearing as possible, although we have
not published the Report Of the Canal Directors
in which he is attacked--as several of the Phila
delphia Editors who published the Report have
been so ungenerous or cowardly as to refuse a

the Report Of the Directors, OF such part as may
appear necessary for the purpose, as soon as con-
venient, that our readers may have view Of the
whole affair.

TERENCE BnADY, one Of the unfortunate
discharge OF field piece near this borough, on the
ath instant. died about one O'Clock on Sunday
morning, after the most excrucating suferngs,
which he bore with astonishing fortitude and re-
signation. 10 the afternoon his remains were in
tered in the burying ground of the Catholic
Church in this Borough. The volunteer companies
of the town attended the funeral, in citizens dress,
some of the relatives being unwilling that he should
be buried with the honors of war. The process
sion was joined b, many of the citizens, and the
whole number of persons assembled in, and inn
me,liately around, ST. Peters cemetery, was not
far short of one thousand.
We are informed that hopes are still entertained
that William HYATT, the other person hurt, will
recover.
We have not room to-day for the correspond
ence between Carter Beverly and Gen. Jackson,
which is making so much mise in the political
world. The Baltimore Patriot of Thursday pub
fishes the Generals letter, with some comments
from the . Wheeling Gazette and makes the fol-
lowing remarks.
"MR. CLAY AND GENERAL JACKSON
We publish to-day letter from General jackson,
with the furcible and appropriate remarks OF the
| " heene Gazette upon it, published, no doubt,
under the sanction Of Mr.. Clay himself, who was
then on the sp"t his way to his home in Kentucky
The General but reiterates the stale charge of
..larpain and sae,' as related TO him BY an inform
or. who had been "infurmed'' upon the subject,
am, them after having poured poson into his mind,
] Iauo like recommends to the Hero to do the same
thing he affects So much to deprecate in others !!
The charge thus insdousy and equvocally made
| Mr.. CLAY NOW pronounces. as he has done repeat
e,lly before I'm his public addresses, to be SANDER
Gus and UNANIMOUSLY false and challenges his ca
iumniators to the proof. We venture to predict
that this affair will pace.the General in more
unfortunate predicament shan any of bis former
