ThUELow WEED AND MS SHAVING ArrARATUs.--
What does Thuilow Weed mean in these DAYS of
virtue morality, and free soil He has exhibited
many symptoms Of late that he is anything but
favorable to policy that might elect General
TAYLOR to the Presidency. The State barber
true TO his calling, is beginning to shave remark
ably close IN political matters. lie will shave the
cheeks of the ocofocos, and the wings, and the
abolrtionists with as much skill as some genius,
in a former age Of the old world, shaved off the
whlskers of Monroe in order TO make Morgan.
Even Mr. Van Buren, receives kindnesses and
compliments from him and he endeavors TO fix
up his hair and curl his whiskers with as much
artistic cunning as they used 10 do in ancient anti
masonic times.
Thurlow is certainly taking things very coolly,
and il seems to be an even chance-a mere toss
ur--whciher we don't find HIM, next November,
an aboliionist. n barnburner, or any other ultra
character that will require good deal OF "lathcr''
TO get sp, so as to give this famed pcYHQuicr and
MARYLAND dc parJamtri6 an opportunity TO exercise

better look 10 HE lsures and his lather-his strops
and his ftatcemanship. As matters yet stand, il
woald be an even bet between lem aud Thurlow ;

TIE NEW YORK YACHT SQUApRoN-A very
pleasing interchange of cvlues took place on last
Friday morning, between the America, steamer,
Capt. JudIIns, and Capt. Roblnson's yacht Yarbo-
rough. a division of the New York yacht squad
ron was On a cruise at sea- when the steamer was
discovered. The Marlborough being the nearest
vessel IN that direction, was ordered by the Com
modore, (Steyens,) by signal, TO bear up and sa
lutte her. When arrived at proper distance, Cap
tain Judkins anticipated the Marlborough, by dis
play of all his flags, (he American ensign at the
fore,) and fred a salute. The Marlborough re-
turned the compliment with a display of all her
bunting, 0he Engsh'hag at the main,) and gave
her a salute when a hearty cheer was given from
the America, and returned by the Marlborough.
We are highly graufied to notice these courtesies
between the two countries, 1t tends to keep up
a proper feeling between MS. Capt. Judkns de-
serves much credit for his kindness, in the COM
pment he paid our American yachts and in losing
sight of formalities by saung first.

We have no doubt that in less than two sessions,
