Mr.. EDITOR
The warm weather of the past two or thvee weeks
has caused great numbers of people to pass through
our city on their way Niagara, Sharon, Saratoga,
and other places of summer resort, so that those
watering places already present gay appearance,
and will be more fashionable than for years past.
expected to see among the arrivals James Gordon
Bennett and lady, but learned few days since that
they had sailed for England. The visit of Mr. Ben
nett to Great Britain will. without doubt, be pro.
ductive of great benefits to the mercantile commu-
nifty of this country, from the arrangements which
it is his intention to make. presume he will fur.

The Repeal movement has reached Albany and
Troy, and large meeting was held here few
days since, at which Peter Gansevoort presided,

this region, Mr.. Calhoun has but few advocates.

the democrats are beginning to consider whether he

may Judge from appearances, do not believe that
either Van Buren, or Calhoun can succeed in the
convention The dissensions between the friends
of those gentlemen, will prevent each from sust i'm
ing the other, and the probable consequence will be

qualities and services as soldier and statesman,

invited to deliver Grafton on the 4th of July; we
expect good one. CLINTON.
