 The President, accompanied by the Vice President and Secretary ofthe Navy, his Pri- vate Secretary, and col. Earl, arrived in this city at 10 o'clock this morning. AfteF Veach- ing Concord he found that his strength would mt enable him to undergo repetition of the IabOrs which the various engagements he had made would require of him. And ttie effect Of further exposure to the north eastern winds, It was feared. might prove permanently det- rimeHtal to his constitution, after his indispO- sitiOn at Boston. He was, therefore, under the necessity of giving up his journey, with out going to Portland in Maine, which he in- tended to have made the termination of his tour at the North.
 The President left Concord, for Washing ton, On Monday the 1st inst. after breakfast, and reached this city al 10 o'clock this mOrn- ing, accomplishing journey of 474 miles in three days. His strength has recruited con- siderably since he commenced his return.- The ordinary fatigue of journey in the sta ges, relieved by the repose obtained in the steam boats and rail road cars. was found light in comparison with the.personal exertiOn necessary to sustain him throughout suc- cession of days, in exchanging salutations and greetings with the immense crowd of his fel low citizens who thrOnged to meet him. He would have found it impossible to have borne up SO long under the fatigue. but for the in- Espiring animation imparted by the enthusias- tic kindness of his countrymsn.

He fell upon the pavement, from which, after moments in- sensibility, he was raised and conducted to his home. Shortly after his arrival, he swoon- ed away, and continued languid and senseless until after o'clock this morning, when he expired. MT. Cox was a young man of re- spectabiilty, and good character. The re- mark which he made was not expressed with an offensive or insulting intention and
