Webster's Position Defined-His Great
speech.


speech.
We have at length the great speech OF DANIEL
WEBSTER Delivered on Friday noon, at Faneull
Hall, Boston. The report will be found in this day 3
paper 1t is the only correct published The
sun" and the " Tribune two of the cheap
papers, have attempted to report this speech
but neither have the intellect talent in their
employment, capable of doing justice to such a
piece of enterprise.
We have now before us the exact position of
Daniel Webster, with respect to John Tyler, Henry
Clay, both with the ultra factons-and his position
is precisely what we predicted it would be ten days
ago, for which we were assaed by the A." CONNER
cal Advertiser" and the "New York Union"-the
one the organ of an exclusive ultra faction in the
wing party and the other the organ of the fresh
live fish, called the "Coporal's Guard" Mr. Web
ster does not leave the Cabinet for the present-he
stands by the Presdent-has gone with him in the
past to accomplish the recent treaty-and will go
with him hereafter to settle and arrange the foreign
colonial trade-the Oregon boundary-the currency,
and all questions of internal finance.
This is what we predicted, to the very letter, ten
days ago. Mr.. Webster has given it forth to the
world with that comprehensive grasp of mind that
marks the true patriot. His speech is the most
dgniiied-the most comprehensive-the most bitter
and salircal condemnation of the ultra wings that
ever was spoken or published. 1t is perfect mas
ter piece in thought style, and expression. He has
risen above all faction-al parties-a corporas
guards-all uras-all mere politcians-and takes
the ground for the country, the whole country,
and nothing but the country" Black Dan forever! !
Mr. WEBSTER COMING TO New YoRK-In about
ten or twenty days, Mr.. Webster will be in New
York He will then be ready to give the ultra wings
the second dose Of physlc-the FIRST he gave them in
Boston last Friday 1t IS proposed to get up grand
procession with ladies in it--gwe barbecue or din
ner at Nibo's-and call him out second time on
the present state of the country. BY that time he
will be ready to fire another gun. Black Dan will
be the death of the ultra whigs-and scatter them
to the twenty-four winds of heaven.
CELESTE AT THE BowERY-HER BENEFlT.-Dur-
ing the past week the Bowery Theatre has been
crowded to see the splendid acting of charming
Celeste. She has, in week, almost restored its
character, its audiences, and its good manners
Peanuts have become scarce-so have jackets
The company is already of far higher order than
has been seen there for three or four years past
Celeste's receipts, being half the house, have ave-
ragged nearly $500 per night-or nearly $4,000 per
week, which is more, in proportion to the time con-
sumed by $1,000, than Fanny Elssler's-the latter
only playing four nights a-week
Celeste takes her benefit on Monday night, which
will be night of great fashion and on her account
alone we remove the interdct from the Bowery
Theatre, and publish the advertisement in the usual
column of public amusements. We shall continue
publish the Bowery bill during our favorte's en-
gagement; but as soon as Celeste goes away, then
goes on the interdict on the Bowery again.
After the coming week, Celeste leaves for Pha-
delphia, to play an engagement with Mr. haywood,
who has been the happy man to secure her for the
Chestnut street Theatre. Mr.. haywood was here
yesterday, bright and early, and returns this morn
ing to Philadelphia Mem.-We again remind
Celeste to get her cash every day from Hambn-
short accounts make long frends-ready money is
live fish-sixpence on the nail Is better than dol
lar next month.
