rafting off their negroes to aid this expedition The
whole Mexican coast is unprotected and the foreign

Mr.. Clay has been directly or indirectly candidate

has repeatedly been beaten by the people, but the last
time he out he showed off the track by the
patriot Harrison and the great Wing Convention at
Harrisburg. He stands forward as the candi-
date of Congressional caucus, who have passed re-
solutions to destroy the Constitution, and are now
striving appoint dictator who would govern the peo-
pie by high taxes and tariffs who would drive the set
tiers from the public lands the point ofthe bayonet as
pirates and robbers" and perpetuate his power by
building up on the one hand race of lordIy manu-
facurers and Iand-hoders and on the other by lew

ducng the poor to condition of extreme wretc he'd
and inability to resist. Such, in few words is
the whole scope of policy of this highly talented but
dangerous man.

THE u. S. FRIGATE RARITAN

We expected to grace our columns this morning
with glowing description of the launch Of this noble
rnate Thousands had prepared to witness the spec
tacle steamboats, sail boats row boats hacks, ON
nibusses, coaches all that could move on land
ter had been chartered take the waiting multitudes
to the spot while vast crowds who must still be left
behind, ready to foot their way to the place
The old waiting to leave their cares, the young
to forsake their SPORTS the indolent to wake from
their nonentities and the industrious to forget their
occupations and all be present at this exciting spec
tacle. When 10! an express arrives countermanding
the order for the launch And all this bustle pre-
paration, excitement and expectation, among old
men and boys, matrons and misses, poets, pettifog-
gers and pickpockets, dashed out of existence
dead monotonous Sahara stretched away where an
Eden bloomed before. All looked sad and desolate
as bachelor who had come to the bridal altar, and
been informed that the lady of his love had changed
her mind And nothing that say will, we
suppose, impart the slightest consolation. Ye have
have taken away my gods, and what have left!
As for the Raritan, she must remain, for the pres
ent at least, her stocks She has rested there for
hpent,-one yea,s, and knows her home as well as an
Egyptian mummy knows lis tomb. She is glorious
specimen Of that stability which now and then attaches
to earthly things. Palaces decay, thrones crumble,
and navies PERISH but there she stands her Stocks
firm and immoveable as Pompey's Pillar, or Cheops'
| Pyramid. 1t is some consolation however to know
that grandchildren will find any of works as
we left them They will be able to lift their little
hands in infant pride and point to this work of their
great sres. 1t will always be there change is not
in its destiny; torrents may forsake their channels,
and islands sink into the bed of the ocean, but the
Rartan will still stand on its stocks.
The necessity of the order countermanding the
launch of the Frgate, has been forced the Depart
ment by the action of Congress. The ability to fit
her out has been withheld it would be folly to launch
ships to rot in our docks. Better for them to remain
on the stocks, where they are comparatively exempt
from decay, till more liberal spirit pervades our
national counsels. That such spirit will yet ava
ken in the Capitol we firmly believe, for it is one
that lives at the heart of the nation 1t is fame
that you may partially smother but which you can
not quench. 1t will yet break from its dark conine
ment and cover the Navy with the splendors Of its

THE RARITAN NOT LAUNCHED.
A GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT

We yesterday announced the intended launch OF
the frgaie Raritan. A similar announcement was
made by all our contemporaries The lovers Of sights
had been upon the qui pipe for days and it Is
probable that hundreds of strangers from the sur
rounding country came TO the city for the purpose Of
seeing fine launch. Every thing in readiness
in the Navy Yard, and the commandant had sent
courteous invitations to the authorities the editors,
and many of his frends-the yard was in splendid or
der, and the weather was delightful. The distin-
guished Naval constructor for this station Mr. Len
thall, confident in his skill and in the arrangements
Of those associated with him, looked forward TO a
beautiful plunge as matter of course-whe those
who had obtained permission to go on board the fiji
gate, were quite excited by expectation. Imagine
their disappointment, them when the word passed
round that the launch would take place. The
Southern mail of the morning brought an order from
the Navy Comms toner's, to suspend operations and
this order arrived too late to make any announcement
in the morning papers. Thus hundreds-nay, thou
sands, not aware of the postponement appeared at
the Navy Yard and its neighborhood, between one
and three o'clock. 1t was amusing see them rush
ing down about half-past two O'Clock, fearful that
they might be too late When however all were
convinced that launch would occur the authors Of
the disappointment were denounced in measured
terms. Congress and the Navy Commissioners were
assailed not only with warmth but with energy and
eloquence. The females and the children were espe-
ciay indignant. In soberness, the delay shame
full But 1t seems there no help for it, SO far as
relates to the Government authorities, Congress hav-
ing refused the necessary appropriations. We learn,
moreover that about $50 men will be discharged forth
with leaving only about 40 SO work in the Yard.
Should the ship lay in her present position during the
summer, it will be necessary to take off her copper
and re-cauk her. Considerable expense has been
incurred IN digging out the dock, In order to prepare
Tor the launch; and This expense must be incurred
again, should the postponement last for consider
able length of time Another matter Of regret is, that
II was intended 10 make use of the Raritan ship
house. for the steamship Trenton. But this, as
1T may be presumed will also be delayed The masts
rigging, boats &c. of the Rartan, are all ready. The
pIsponemeni is regarded by the community as very
small affair. The ship must be launched sooner OF
later and the longer the delay, the for the ne
