AS the Presidents pilgrimage TO Bunker Hid will
be one of the greatest events Of this year, we have
engaged excellent, new, and fresh correspondent,
whose name is yohn Jones, of New York-not OF
Washington-to accompany the President IRON
Washington to Boston, to report his progress 10
note all curious events-to watch the movements oil
the waters-and to give daily account oil all anaifs'
illustrated with engravngs and etchngs''

ed Washington OH Monday night, at which ume'
also, the President was expected to arrive from his
farm in Virginia On Wednesday (o.day) the
"progress" will begin, and it is probable that our
first despatch will appear in the Herald tomorrow
We have also made arrangements TO report puba-
rim. the great Grafton of Daniel Webster, ON the
18th, and to beat the whole newspaper press Of New
York, both in despatch and accuracy, on bet Of
venture to take it up. We never gamble, bet, or
buy or sell stocks timeaad this we only propose
as a piece of evidence to tert real merit. Who
takes?
THE PRESIDENTS TouR-THE CEIxBKATIoN--THE
PAST AND THE FUruRE.-As the period oil the
Presidents visit to this city approaches, variety
OF interests are giving development to their sentl-
ments and feelings. The great mass OF our rrspcc-
table and intelligent citizens are prepared, we have
good reason to believe, to receive the Chief Nlags'
,ra,e of the nation with thatrespect and ate nuon
which his station naturally sohcits, and which genu-
inc patriotism is ever willing to exhibit But there
are, on the other hand, number OF the cod-flsh
aristocracy, who manfeslng very amusing pre-
montory symptoms of intended rebellion. Some OF
them have actually threatened TO leave the city In
disgust on this occasion. An alarming animation,
truly Others, with more sefdenying heroism, are
determined TO remain the spot, and give copious
discharge TO their spleen. dissatisfaction, and per-
soaal dislike of Captain Tyler.
The man who could exhibit such conduct towards
the highest official of his country, is clearly past re-
dempon. Were the visit of the President merely
an accidental one-had it nothing but an ordinary
object in view-or were 1t a mere formal, ceremon-
Gus one il should elicit cordial greeting from eve
ry citizen. But the intended visit oil the President
is no ordinary one. 1t is marked by circumstances
which invest it, in the eyes OF every true patriot,
with unusual interest and dignity. The President,
during his tour, may be regarded as making plgri-
mage to the pure shrine of his country's freedom
the hallowed altar of human libery-there to Of
fer up, with thousands of his coun,rymen, the
homage of patriotism and reverenal regard for The
memory and virtues of those departed worthless who,
hottl GaII ox,;,o nflv fOr
liberties of. America and the human race. And is
this an occasion on which the spirit OF faction,
party feeling, political animosity, should be per-
milted to manifest themselves? He has not sha.
dow Of preence to the character Of lover OF his
country Of the great common interests OF his race,
who would, in thought, word, or deed, transgress
against the hallowing and harmonizng influence of
this great occasion Let the reception of the Presi
dent in New York, then, be what 1t ought TO be-
the calm, cordial, unanimous, and dgnifed greet
ing of the Chief Magistrate of the nation, by the
citizens of our metropolitan city.
The celebration itself will be the grandest scene
of national rejoicing ever witnessed In any land.
The locality, with its thronging associatlons-the
great orator OF the day--thc assembled officers OF
State-the gathered muItItudes, OF all ranks and
classes and from every State in the Union-wll
render it one of the greatest events OF our genera
ton Men of all parties will assemble thereon
that consecrated spot they will recall the past, and
calmly brood over the principles and the characters
of the men whose patriotism, integrity, wisdom,
and valor laid the foundations OF the mlghtl-
est empire that the world has ever seen. ls
it too much to hope that something OF the
pure spirit of those devoted men will on that
day descend upon the congregated masses, and
that an enduring barrier will be opposed to the desc
atng progress OF fierce and reckless partizanshlp
In the achievement of this great object, the dlstln-
guished orator of the day, has the good fortune TO
occupy remarkably favorable position. In his re-
cent new movement, he secured the friendly regard
of great proportion of the solid, subs antlal in
fueace and worth of the! community. All h 8 fu-
efforts in crushing the hydra OF party, and In
freeing the nation from the assassinhands Of bank
rupt unWincpled politicians are certain OF meeting
the earnest concurrence and support of thousands OF
the best men in the country. That Mr. Webster
will embrace this great occasion, for this patriotic
purpose, we do not doubt That he will use the OPP
portunity with prudence, sagacity and success, we
are equally weassured. There are brightness and
hope in the future. As in Rome il was deemed the
mark of good citizen never to despair OF the re-
public, so let all patrioRow find in the future no
thing but beckoning incentives TO renewed exeron,
devotedness and zeal
IMPORTANT CATHOLIC MovEMENr.-Our holy Ro-
man Catholic American Church, now our dearly
beloved Mother-in-G od in spite of all she has su-
fered in character by the newspapers, from Martin
Luther down to David Hale, is yet one of the most
hale and hearty old ladies in existence.
When Braham, the great singer, came to this
country, the change OF climate, and the clear skies,
renovated his existence and made him a new man
