and be welcomed with civic and military honors.
lie spent Sunday at Princeton, with Capt Stockton
of the Navy We doubt whether he will have q
handsomer reception in New York than he had in
this city, which was as brilliant could be
desired. There is one fact, however, that rebounds
TO the credit of New York The authorities of that
city have not done their duty this occasion grudg-
ingy whatever their political predictions are, they
have property kept them for political occasions. The
contemplate littleness displayed by the majority OF
The Councils of this city, in refusing to tender the
usual honor of waiting upon the President, is mat
ter Of deep modification to the citizens generally and
the inciylty has excited general and well merted
dignation. IL the members were acting for them
selves, it was perhaps high an honor they could
have paid the Chief Magistrate Of their country TO
have avoided thrusting their uncv persons into his
presence; but acting the representatives of the
citizens, their Office in measure supplied natures
deficiency, and invested them with a certain degree
Of dignity that our citizens bad right to see exer-
csed this occasion. The latter expected that they
would have regard for the station they filled
and for the character Of the city, and not, when
CURED to exhibit the courtesy Of gentleman display
ing the manners of churls. As the.case stands how
ever, they have only done discredit TO themselves
shown the intolerance their tempers, the blind par
tisanship which shuts their eyes to their public duty
and their total unworhness TO the public honor
which their good-natured fellow citizens, in somt
whimsical freak, or some strange mistake, bestowed
