For ourselves We cannot sec that Mr..
Clay is more available now than al the
several times that he was defeated by
Gen. Jackson, or at the seve raj times that
he was withdrawn from contest with
Mr.. Van Buren,. On the contrary, the
character Of Proud Dictator and ''Malig
nant Demagougc' is now his only fame,
! whilst in former times he enjoyed par
tial popularity from fresh remembrance
of his former services. But his subsc-
qucnt career, so chcquered with corrup-
ton, so marked with deceit and SO preg
nant with ruin to our national prosperity,
has dimmed the lustre OF his former
splendor, and furnished with indellible
blots the brightness Of his former glory.
For him the praises Of the millions are
forever sifenced-and for him the sun Of
public favor is sunk in eternal night.

Gen. Jackson, truly '',he greatest and
best Of men, is at the Hermc.age, in
good health, calmly smoking his pipe, and
reveling in the "reminiscences Of q well
spent life.
Mr.. Van Buren, is at Undertook talk
ing Dutch to his neighbors, and laughing
at tie snarl the wings are in, and very
reasonably expecting TO be made Prcsi-
dent again. Every man has right to
his opinions.
Col Richard NJ. johnson, the hero OF
the Thames and the pure patriot, is at
the Great Crossings in kentucky, and,
like one Of the editors Of the Gazette,
content to serve the people in the legisla-
tive assembly. It's all fudge about his
coming out for Clay He says he would

Mr.. Clay is at Ashland, 'smebding the
fences" that he used to talk about forty
years ago, and chewing the cud Of bitter
fancy, with very slim prospects Of ever
getting out Of the cline Of safe prece-
dents" into the Presidency.
Capt. Tyler sits in his easy chair at
the White House, wrapped in tho cloak
Of his conscience, (Which is not burden
some even in dog days,) quietly waiting
to be ''headed'' if his enemies can do it.
Nicholas Biddle is not exactly in the

that he recently had s'tirst rate shqw

In the House Aug, l7tl,.-Mr. McKen-
nan submitted the following resolution,
which caused great excitement among
the warm par.izans.
Resolued, That it is cxpedient to pass

which recently passed both Houses Of
Congress and has been returned by the
President, with his objections, to this
House, entitled IAN act to provide rcven.

exception Of the 9Th, section Of said bill,
which repeats the proyiso to the land dis

tea and coffee, imported in American yes

After the refusal Of the House to sus-
pend the rules in order for the reception

the regular business, which was the con-
sideration Of the reports and resolution Of

following is the resolution:
"Resolred By the Senate and House Of
Representatives. cfthe intel States Of A.

Of both Houses, cOncuvring therein, That
the following amendment to the Constitu-
ton Of the United States, in the 9TH Sec

CITY OF BURLINGTON.

Nothing, we venture to say, in the
history Of western enterprise, can afford
parallel to the rapid and substantial and
elegant improvement Of the City Of Bur-
lington. Numerous residences and spa
cious business houses (equal in size, ma
terial and construction 10 the best whole.
sale establishments in the proudest city
in the UnioO and all Of brick, have been
erected and completed during the present
ummer-and instead Of stopping here,
sthe work still goes bravely on The
best feature in this picture is, that this
improvement is based on solid substance
the money and goods Of our merchants
and the labor Of our mechanics-a and no
credit or doubtful promises about It.
1t is the remark Of all travellers that
we have the most fourishing town north
Of St. Louis and west Of Dayton, Ohio.
We more than believe them.
Two years ago we had population Of
100. II must now be quite il not rising
of 1000.
So strong is Dur faith in the onward
march Of Burlington that we venture the
prediction that ID u year moro we shall
be compelled to publish a semi or tri-
weekly PAPER to accommodate our mer
camille and mechanical advertisers; and
in two years more, daily, to spread the
