Scene IN OUR STREETs.--A day ortwo
ago, we saw one Of those itinerant hurdy
gurdy grinders amusing crowd of little
children in our streets They were singu-
larly intent upon the sport; crowd of
happy looking darkies constituted rear
guard, composed of nurses, and general
representation of the kitchen cabinet. The
side walk was blockaked entirely; the hur-
dy- gurdy made the air hideous, and the
screams of delight, uttered by the little
children, operated like the saving passages
in bad overture. In the midst of all this
excitement. tall gentleman passed along.
full of health, evidently much pleased, and
truly sympathising with what he saw. He
carefully placed his hands on the heads of
the little people, that he might tenderly
make passage for himself; suddenly the
darkies fell back into respectful ex pres.
sion, lifted their hats, the little children
became impressed, and followed the retreat
ing form Of the tall gentleman until he dis
appeared, much to the establishment of the
music grinder, whose eloquence for the
time was unheeded. That gentleman, SO
venerated, who passes through our streets
so unostentatiously, is Henry Clay.

OTA correspondent of tho Missouri
Herald, who signs himself zone Of the peo-
pie,' reviews the New Constitution, and is
much pleased with the n,i.bank, anri.cor-
poration features-says they are genuine
democratic measures. He does not exact
ly like the provision on Representation but
sings the old song of compromise, and con.
cludes his article by saying, Democrats are
responsible for having framed it-and dem.
ocrats should cordially support it,"
This is the true locofoco democratic
ground: if democrat steals democrats
should clear him-s,and by "the party"
But, the efforts of "one of the people,"
and his coadjulors in other parts of the
State, TO make the adoption or rejection of
the new Constitution party question: will
fail
In making up their minds upon the adop.
ton of Constitution, the people should
not be under the influence of party feelings
and he who would attempt to arouse
such feelings, in connection with the con-
Iteration of such subject, deserves, and
will receive, the execration Of all homes,

Now OR NEVER"
Be it known, to all the world, that the
above is the declaration of Major SIMS,
and not Judge BowLIN, as has been erro-
neously stated
A Washington correspondent of the JEFF
ferson Inquirer, informs US that he is the
most dciestable of all men who "robs the
STATESMAN of his wellearned fame, and
gives it to another" and continues
"But the correspondent of the Pennsylvania
is a scholar and a gentleman, and thought. have
no doubt, that Judge Bowlin, instead Of Major
Sims. uttered the truly American motto, "the
whole OF Oregon or none-now or never" il so,
truth and justice calls upon him 10 give credit in
this instance, to whom it is due. This eloquent
gem was but one among the many spoken by
Maj. Sims in his much talked Of and thought Of
speech on the Oregon question, which for beauty
OF diction and originality Of thought, surpassed
any thing delivered on the same subject in the
House OF Representatives.
Major Sims is a farmer and mechanic, and
well might that respectable portion OF our fellow
citizens be proud Of being so honorably and ably
represented. He it was who in his speech
hushed the lawyers, administered statistical
opate and face>puckering jaw. lap to the doctors,
and proved TO the demagogues in Congress, as
well as to the American people, that intrigue,
hattery and corruption, Misrepresentation and pro.

The United States can refuse, with honor, the

The Queen emphasized the portions of
the speech which referred to the con,inu-
ance of peace and to The reduction of the
tariff.
The Earl Of Home moved the address
in a brief speech in which he glanced at
the most of the topics touched upon in the
speech from the throne. lie concluded
with reading the words of the address
which merely echoed the speech.
Lord De Ros seconded the address, and
expressed hope that our pacific relations
with America would not be disturbed by
