we don deny the justice of comparing Tamburini's

MIR. CIay's Visit to New York.

By the programme put forth under the auspices
of the Corporation, Mr.. Clay is expected to reach
New York this day, at about two o'clock, by
steamboat from South Amboy, and railroad from
Philadelphia. In the morning, steamboat goes
down to South Amboy to receive the living re-
mains of the great statesman OF the West, and
bring them to Castle Garden, for exhibition and
fealty; and tomorrow, probably, the same boat
will be used to convey the Wondering ashes of
the great statesman OF the East, from the scene
of his death to that of his eternal repose in Mas
sachusetts.
Thus, in the short space of twenty-four hours,
shouts and sorrow--re oicings and tears-hurrahs
and mournings-mingle and meet together, pre-
senting one of those curious and complicated
pictures of human life which have marked man
from the creation OF the world to this day, and
which will mark his course down 10 the consum-
nation OF all things, at the last and final day
From Castle Garden, after the usual speechi-
flying, mixed with shouts and applause, Mr. Clay
will proceed up Broadway to the New York Hotel,
the centre of the most fashionable .faubourg of
New York land within sound of the Italian Opera.
He is to remain three or four days, to receive
the visits Of all the popuace, and of all parties
TO receive tn fluctuations of his friends-to be
admired, encouraged, cheered rejoiced over
and then, we suppose, as formerly, TO be cheated
and humbugged after he is gone.
The great men of great country, and the wild
animals of the savage forest, have always had
tremendous receptions by the people of New
York. General Jackson, Mr.. Van Buren,, Cap
tain John Tyler, Mr.. Pok-the philosophical ell
ephant, the savage lion Of Africa, the sober
rhinoceros, and all the beasts of the forest, and
all the statesmen of the menagerie of human
ambiton-have always been received with equal
applause and equal crowds, in the streets of New
York. Our population is generous to fault;
their taste for the great, either in mind or matter,
in man or beast, is wonderfully developed. ALI
the great men of the nation, without disinc-
ton OF party, have been received publicly
IN New York with tremendous applause
and tremendous crowds, with one single,
simple, SOBER, silent exception We do not
recollect that John Quincy Adams ever re-,
celved public reception During his long and
wonderful life, he passed through the country ST.
lenty-pnvstely, unobtrusively-if summer, in
nankeen pantaloons; if winter, in great coat.
All that remains Of him will pass through New
York with probably the same silence which
marked his journey through life. Ifthev should

The Electric Telsgraph,

Our telegraphic dispatches last night, from all
quarters, were made up of most important and
interesting information.
From Washington we learn that M. Sierra,
the commissioner from Yucatan, has applied to
this government for its interference and aid in
quelling an instruction which has broken out
in that country, and which was, at last accounts,
raging with horrible fury. M. S. states that
forty thousand Indians were in arms, massacre
ing the white population, devastating the towns
aud villages, and the end would be, without the
speedy succor of this government, the entire ex-
termination of the white race in that country.
The treaty with Mexico has not yet been rati
fled by the Senate; and our Geographic despatch
es still leave us in uncertainty as to its fate.
The proceedings in Congress yesterday were
unimportant and neither Senate nor House
evince disposition to transact business until
alter the disposal of the treaty.
From Baltimore, we have accounts of the re-
spectful and imposing solemnities shown TO the
The city was wrapped IN mourning, and all were
engaged in rendering honor to the ilustrious
dead.
The deliberations of our State legislators yes
terday, were not marked with any event tending
to promote the interests OF the State at large, or
the happiness and prosperity of its inhabitants
There was nothing done calculated to inspire
confidence in the community as to the wisdom
of their representatives, or to insure passing
notice from the pen of the historian, except it
might be the appointment of committees to pay
suitable tribute of respect TO the remains of the
lamented statesman, John Quincy Adams.
From Harrisburg, we learn that the Democra-
tic State Convention closed its session yester-
day afternoon. Previous to adjournment, reso-
luton was passed instrucling the delegates to
the Baltimore National Convention 10 oppose the
adoption of the two-third rule

The Funeral Procession In Honor Of MIR.
Adams.

BALTIMORE, March 6-1 p. NJ
The funeral procession IN honor of Mr.. Adams
is immense beyond all precedent. The whole
city seems to be in the procession, engaged in
rendering the last sad honors to some highly re-
vered and beloved personal friend of each indi-
vidual; none of the vast meetings which have
ever been held here on political or other occa-
sons was more numerously, respectfully, or
earnestly attended.
And not only is all the population employed in
this solemn duty, but all the places of bust ness
are closed and wrapped in mourning; and from
many, or rather most of the private houses, the
signs of a nations bereavement and sorrow are
to be seen.
The flags are hanging at half mast, the bells
are tolling heavily, minute guns announce the
progress of the pageant, while the waillng of
the death march played by the military bands,
completes the scene, and gives fitting voice to
the emotions OF every heart.
After the procession is over, the remains OF
Mr.. Adams will be put in charge of guard of
honor at the rotunda of the Exchange, where all
citizens who may desire to view the coffin, will
be allowed to do so.

HORRIBLE MASSACRES

WHITE POPULATION IN YUCAIAN,
BY THE INDIANS.
The Yucatan Commissioner Soliciting
this Government for SuccOr.
&C. &C. &c.

WASHINGTON, March 6, lS4S
NJ Sierra, the commissioner from Yucatan
has received dispatches of grave import from
his government.
They represent the Indians as committing the
most horrible massacres on the whites, and de-
vastating whole villages, and sparng neither age
nor sex.
Forty thousand savages, fully armed, are said
to be in the field. They have procured arms
and ammunition from the Belize.
M. Sierra is instructed to solicit aid from our
government in the shape of arms and ammuni-
ton, and also, to ask that portion of the Home
Squadron be despatched to save the -esidue Of
the Yucatecoes from determination.
This request will be considered by the Cabinet
to morrow N.
