Internal Interests OF the Republic.
We have Intelligence FROM Boston of highly
important nature disclosing the position and views
ui the Hon. DANIEL WEBsTEE-and the p,obabiiiB
QfhiS continuance "a fhc Cabinet Of John Tyler dming
there nainaer ofhis Presidency.
This Intelligence comes to us through private
correspondence from Boston, written by one who
has access 20 the most accurate views, feelings,
principles, and purposes of Mr.. Webster. At the
date of our correspondence, MIR. Webster had not
delivered his spec to the people OF Boston, at a
meeting to which he had been invited by number
of distinguished citizens OF that city. Ii was SUP
posed, however, that he would make that develope-
ment at fdrhest on some day of next week.
Al all events, have been informed that Mr.
Webster has no intention of leaving the Cabinet o..
John Tyler-that he entertalns, from the experience
he has had with hum In the State Department, a
nigh opinion of his talents, patriotism and integrity.
During the whole of the recent negotiations with
Lord Ashburton, the President took prominent
part, and without his sagacity and patriotism, Mr..
Webster is of opinion that the treaty never could
have been successfully terminated. The President
Is also the author and originator of all the public
documents to which his name is affixed-and the
assertions of the wing press TO the contrary des
tltute OF truth.
We understand further that Mr.. Webster's posi-
ton hereafter will be that of entire isolation from
either OF the two grand factons-he will take the
broad ground of pairiotlsm-moral rinciple-and
high Independence, without STOPPING to any faction
in existence. The factious and dangerous course
of JOHN QUINCY ADAMS in Congress--and his re-
cent inh4nmatory speeches in Massachusetts, have
determined Mr. Webster TO take the position thus
Cd tho md bar
mony of the country-and TO the republic
from disunon and disruption through the arts of
fanatics
In pursuance of these views, Mr.. Webster will
still remain in the Cabinet-so will John c. Spencer
and ii is probable that the grand scheme Of policy
to SETTLE on Just principles, all the conflicting inter-
ests of the country, will occupy their attention up
to the next session of Congress. The currency
the tariF--he public Landslide distribution-w be
as successfully settled as the bankrupt interests and
the difficulties with England have been.
The effect of these views purposes and move
ments, viii be to produce new comblnatons-b
forward new men-and to demolsh all the worn
out hacks and factions of the present day. The
Presidency of John Tyler will be the most prosper
Gus that the country has everyet seen.
Mr. Webster's speech will be issued from this Of
fee in an extra as soon as received from Boston by
express.
Postscript.
Since the above was written, we have received
additional intelligence from Boston, stating that
many Of the Wings trying to prevail on Mr..
Webster not to make any speech but TO leave the
Cabinet quietly, without uttering a word IN expla-
nation On this point, one of the Boston papers has
the following significant queries;
What has become OF the Wing meeting to give
a reception to Mr.. Webster and listen to his elo-
quence
WHY is it delayed
Has il not been indefinitely postponed If go, can
anv one iaform US why 7
A.. he Wings afraid to give Mr.. Webster an OF
poftuupy of addressing them : DO they then fear
that h. viii utter some home truths Of one thing
we are certain, that Mr.. Webster can never be the
champion oil Henry Clay.
There is decp mystery about FIR. Webster,
which few days will unravel
LETTER rRoM Henry CLAY.-We give below let
ter written by Mr. Clay, defining hls position 1t is

lay in words. .,.,,
DEAN siR--I received your favor communicating the
patriotic purposes and views OF the young men OF Phia
delphia and take pleasure, in compliance win your
request, stating OF the principal objects which
