We copy the following from the Philadelphia
Spirit of the Times, of Monday:

All the flags Of all the Democratic Head Quarters in
this city, were yesterday shroaded in Grape for the
decease of Mrs. John Tyler late consort Of the Pre-
sdent of the United States. Not Wing house, dark
ened its flag for this closing of the ebon gate of
absolute heartlessness, and political selfshness
enough to disgust every man. When the asperity of
political feeling close up all the gentler sympahes
of our humane nature, it is time indeed to lament the
spirit Of party.

Dram Sir: wrote you line yesterday ana
sonr;sed YOU of the call of our citizens TO form
4. procession to show respect 10 the feelings Of
onr President in his late bereavement; and
am glad to say was not disappointed, as we
had quite large procession. Although the
weather was excessively warm, and the dust
almost insupportable, many of the citizens met
the corpse at some distance from the town, that
is, all those in carriages and on horseback joined
by those on foot at the bridge near the town,
and the church bells were toiled while the pro-
cesson moved slowly through the town to the
depot The procession was such as II should
be, and doubt not well calculated to soothe the
feelings of the bereaved husband and gratifying
TO the most respectable gentlemen attending
Mrs. Tyler's remains to their resting place In
her own native Virginia, her pure spirit having
already resting place in the bosom Of that God
whom she served. The cars left for Richmond
with their precious burden soon after twelve
o'clock
RICHMOND, 18th September, lS4l.
The remains of the wife of our Chief Magis-
trate reached this city, this evening, and
thought it might afford kind OF melancholy
pleasure to the Presidents friends in Washing
ton BY letting them know of its arrival and re-
ception here.
Such crowd as was assembled around our
rail road depot, this evening, never before be
held at that spot. Mullitudes OF people (lades
and gentlemen) were there. saw the rich
the Acknowledged the more humble (but not
less usefuD all there. All seemed to share the
sorrows of their President. hearse and about
twenty or ty-ive carriages were In readi
ness at the rail road to convey to the Powhatan
House the afflicted President, family and suite
Crowds of people thronged the streets and when
the m,urnfu procession reached the Powhatan
House, the wings, the democrats, the lady, the
gentleman, the man of pleasure, and (last, not
least) the working man, all came and told by
their firm grasp of the hand, and then eyes,
"that although we may differ in politics, yet in
feelings we are the same. respect you in the
private circle" Mr.. Tyler must have seen this.
Never did see party feeling so completely done
away with. Our Governor received him at the
cars, and Messrs. LIB, and Re, and X.
G. Sc--t, showed that party feeling was abol-
ished.
The body leaves tomorrow morning at 4
o'clock. Yours b.
