Clay, Webster and Calhoun.
CONEMA 4 UGH.

To any one who has been in the habi
of visiting Washington during the present
winter, nothing will impress him more
Than the appearance, respectively, of the
three venerable statesmen, whose names
we have placed at the head of this article
The stranger, who comes to the National
capital for the first time, even before he
has seen the Pennsylvania Avenue, asks
10 be shown CLAY, WEBSTER and CAL
HouN- And when they are pointed Out
to him, how he will be surprised, Youn-
ger-looking and younger really than either
is Mr.. Clay, and amazingly vigorous too,
las his last great speech in the Senate will
show;) and yet what a shadow he is OF
the bold, fearless, and dashing statesman
who, for the best part of half a century
has electrified our new world by his elo,
quence, and agitated it by his measures;
and who is at this moment living link
connecting the Present with the Past Sec
him in his blue cloak, with long sleeves
cane in hand, perambulating the streets
with wide but uncertain steps, and head
declined, with all his efforts to keep il
erect; and the stranger will be disappoint-
ed, even if the more observant and more
experienced spectator is pleased to see
The veteran wear so well.
Take, next, Daniel Webster! Upon
him the change effected by few brief
years, has been terrible. Time has pass
ed heavily over him. He walks with
slow and measured stride to the Senate
Chamber, and pays little attention to those
who gaze upon him. His cheek is palid.
His clothes hang loosely upon his feeble
frame. His step is not firm. But look
Into his eye, which, deep as diamond in
in a cavern, glows in his head, and you
will see that intellect is burning bright
within him. Note him in his seat in the
august Senate Chamber. Sombre. silent,
and solitary, he sits apart, rarely relaxing
into smile, rarely replying to an appeal,
and literally glowering upon the busy
scene before him, without taking part IN
the exercise. But rouse that massive
mind; and then, all men, all parties, bow
before the genius that has Illuminated our
annals and defended our Constitution. We
are not politically disciple of Webster;
but we thank God that such a man as he
is still living, to remind us that there are
duties that rise entirely above party.
And now for John c. Calhoun. The
last time we saw Mr.. Calhoun was on =
cold day in December, as, with his close
ly buttoned surtout, for he wore no cloak. \
he rapidly walked to the capital. His step
was firm-his form erect-his eve bright
as star in moonless sky. Glorious
calhoun! we differ from thee in some
wings; and yet we admire and veneratc

Sr. LOURS, March, >, IeOU
We have news from Santa Fe til 9Th
January.
Col. Calhoun had effected a Treaty
with the Eutaws. A few days afterwards
the Eutaws murdered a number of Mexi-
cans and stole a large quantity of stock.
\ party of hunters who had returned
to Santa Fe had a severe fight with the
ApacLes, killing many. The Cheyenes
also are becoming hostile. Fears are
entertained that they will become trouble
some to the spring emigrants.
The weather is very cold at Santa Fe.
There is a great excitement about the
State Territorial qustion.
A company Of sminers from Missouri
are working gold NINE % miles from
Santa Fe, with success.

large Benton meeting was recently
held there, which approved the course o.
Senator Benton, and repudiated Calhoun
and disunion. Bentonism is a test in the

is cruel commentary upon the morality
not to say the chivalry of the age. A bill
has been introduced by Mr.. Drum on the
subject of divorces. This bill gives un
limited jurisdiction to the different court:
of the Commonwealth. This think /;
right, because if the courts have the adJu
dication of all cases, there will be no dan.
ger of any ex-party proceeding. A jury
of twelve men will be sworn to try the
facts in each case, who will decide accor
ding to the facts, and not according to tho
amount of money which the libelant car
bring to bear TO procure decision in his
or her favor, which am sorry to say i:
too often the case in the Legislature. Be
sides all this, the passage of this bill will
deprive few unprincipled men who hang
around the capitol, session after session

lucrative employment. These men are
