 The OOly matter OfimpOrtance tn the Sen.

 al and resolutions from meeting of 700
 young men tn the city Of Troy iN your state. Mr. Clay supported the prayer of the pe- tItiOners tn an ahle speech. which occupied
 an hour. He took a comprehensive view Of the events which have traHapired tn the Un- ] i0n since the removal of the depOsites. and 1 undeniably proved that the distress. which l even the advocates of the administration DO
 longer dared [" deny, has been OccasiONed by
 the act of the Executive. Alter alluding tN

White, I Esq. on his return from New York, after hay. ing abandoned his post in Congress, and at. l tended the election, and spent his time as the Evening Star says. at the " Five PoinEs." He not only annouaced this to the party, to keep up their spirits, and to sustain the desponding
 hopes of Virginia; but he declared it to the
 President. and the wretched man believes it, and QO one dare to Undeceive him. When MT. White returned, the small mushroom poIilieians Were in ecstacies; but it was oth.

The report fixed his muscles as they were, when he 6rst heard it, and his Sisage expresses, now as then, the emotions of wonder, amazement and horror. T'he party had d0 doubt of haaj0rity from to 5000. Gen: Jackson said during the can- vass, {" shGll have Gtsejority ccfue thoMs0nd.'' .'' Mir. Van Bnren ridiculed the idea, that there was any dagger to be apprehended of the charter election. The administration mein- bers from Virginia traded on his capital; and according te tAe opinion of the Presdent, ina relation to credit in nnOney matters. they ought tO break. Two cxpresses were said to have arrived here on Thursday and Friday but, if thcFeports were true, they were not to briag news here, but to proceed with it into Virginia. You need not be surprised hcreaf- ter to learn, that expresses were sent into various parts of Virginia, with manufactured news. that the Regency party had succeeded in New-York by m overwhelming majority. The best hopes of the party have clung to these two elactiOns. So confident has Mr. Van Buren been .f the Virginia election. that he bantered Mr. Clay about week since to bet suit of clothes OD the result. The latter is not-tO be brow beaten by small offer of the kind, and f he shail allude to 1t, in his in- imitable manner, after the bet shailhave hean paid, to the great annoyance Of.tbe former. it will furnish new topic f0f diversifying tho interesting scenes that daily take place in the. Senate.
 Mr. Clay presented several memorials yes tsrday, and principally frosn different sections
 ln New-York. In the cOurse Of his remarks.
 he alluded to the late triumphant victory ob.
 talned by the whigs over the tories n the city
 of New-YOrk. He turned to the Vice Psesi- dent. and addressed him.-" and you. sir, n you have 0De particle of patriotism tn your breast, must rejoice with the whigs. and the adSacaiss of freedom, and the opposers of executive power, in the result" :. The derangenient in money matters. in-
