the palmy days Of .'Nadvsim' whom Mayor Harper
and his cohorts wslowed Ia tho tho great sye OF the
New World.
Give US anything rather than dust snc Nativism
however; even "War, Psstileaco, and Famine, as
Mr. Clay used to POLITICALLY express himself-and We
ought not TO complain.
There is not q little excitement in the city
just now, growing out OF the distribution oil
the spos Of the late victory and before all
the sweetmeats are disposed OF, we may ind our
selves involved in a little acrimonious warfare
But il will after ALL prove nine days wonder, and
as soon as the loves add fishes are distributed among
the seekers Of place. all will BIO harmony again, and
VIC shall rally for fresh battle in the autumn. Since
the charter election was decided, there have been
merous sudden conversions among the holders of Of
fee and not few Of those patriotic gentlemen have
discovered that the principles Of the Democratic par
~ always were correct but, unfortunately, were
not always properly appreciated or understood" Ii
is amazing TO behold what effect the result of an
election produces the minds Of the disciples Of the
Vic ar of Bray.
The last autumn there were elected to represent
In the Congress of the United States four gentlemen
re natives, who, the next winter will make their
appearance in the Capitol They elected
Native Americans, or "Natisests, and, such, they
will be required to act, by the zone horse ehaise
party" To this, 1t is probable that they will de-
MUIR the ground that that party has been scattered
to the Winds s7d that is nexpedient to attempt its
revival. indeed, ii is now reported-on what erac,
authority know not-that the Immortal Four in ques-
ton have had some serious reflections the subject,
and have reported themselves to be sup for Cowes
and market"
A portion of the Whigs-that portion which is
represented by the New York Courier and Enquirer
it is said, have offered to trade with them whilst the
other portion, represented by the Tribune is decided
ly opposed to any such arrangement
The Tribune, paper that is generally in tho
wrong, happens to be right in this instance and by
scouting the idea of holding any communion with the
Natives, another for the revived representa-
tives ofthe old John Adams-Hartford Convention
black -eockAde party evidences foresight and fore
thought that reflects much credit its generally OBJ
fuse and bothered editor.
1t is also said that the Immortal Four have made
proposals and overtures to the Sachems of Tammany
Hall, for seats at the great feastng table of the
Democratic family, which have been rejected This
story is probably true and if not positively consis
tent with the facts Of the case, it undoubtedly has
something for its basis.
There is some feeling here in reference to the dis
position of the Executive patronage, and many there
who inpatient to their country. Patriot
ism is rather abundant, at this moment, and If the
supply continues to increase rapidly it has done
since the ldes of March," it will soon exceed the
demand
A letter dated, New York, April TO- and publish
ed in the Madisonian, of the 18th instant, signed s.
s. s., created some sensation here. 1t was ascribed
in consequence of the initials it bore, to Mr.. 8. s.
SourHwoRrH; and that gentleman has thought it of
sufficient consequence, to require his disavowa |
understand from his card however, that he disavows
it for other than that as il is not his pro-
ducton he does not wish to bear the responsibility of
its paternity. do not see in Mr.. Souhworth's card
anything that dsrespectul TO you to the author

In the absence of the heat and excitement of poll
tics, every body is participating in the amusemens of
the theatre We have now, seven theatres, and
opera houses in full blast; and all nightly filed
At the Park, Mr. Anderson, the English Tragedi-
an, is playing to audiences thai, for numbers, have
never been surpassed An attempt was made, on the
first night of bis engagement, by some misguided
friends Of Mr.. Forrest, to treat him rudey but it
was instantly silenced in the most emphatic manner.
Those who made the attempt acted in violation of
the feelings and wishes of MIR. Forrest, who, / am
sure, from an intimate acquaintance with him, of
many years standing, would have frowned upon such
act of unproyoked dscourtesy and inhospitality.
At Pamo's Opera House, we are having the Anti
gone Sophoces 1t is patchwork version of Barthol
omew, and has been voted a bore The only version,
that have read, of the Greek Story is the Edi-
pu, of Sophoces by Dryden That is truthful and
most forcibe tragedy and in the characters of Pc
dpus and Jocosa, the famous Mr.. Pope, and Mr. Old
field, achieved their vast renown.
