The GALPHN CLIQUE IN THIS CITY.-The CAL
phn Clique in this city, having an organ in Wall
street, are at the end of their wits Their journal
is quite savage against Mr.. Clay, denouncing him
omnibus driver, and endeavoring to wean
from the patriotic Senator the affections of his old
friends in the wing ranks. We rather think that
this despicable attempt Of the GalPhns will not
only be foed, but that it will result favorably for
the Omnibus. Bill in Congress. Nothing succeeds
with the Galphins but Galphnism itself; and they
cannot carry out any measure, even with the as
sistance Of President Taylor, who would do well
enough, if he had not heavy and tiresome cabi-
net to drag after him.

WATER CURE CONVENTION IN BRoADwAY.-This
curious assemblage of sarants met yesterday, and
an amusing report of their remarkable debate will
be found in our columnstoday. We have no great
faith in spouting philosophy and science, and are
disposed rather to pin our belief upon deeds and
good works. A practical illustration is worth a
whole acre of theory.
During the last two years we have had occasion
TO look into the water-cure philosophy, as practi-
caly developed by improved and renewed consii-
tutions; and, after calm and rational view of re-
markable cures, have come to the conclusion that
there are only two valuable water-cure establish
ments in this country. One of these is at Willow
Grove, near Philadelphia, under the direction Of
that excellent physician, DR.. Schieferdecker-and
the other at the beautiful village, Northampton,
Massachusetts, on Round Hill, one of the most de-
lightful summer residences in New England. Dr.
Charles Munde has charge of this institution, and
he has been eminently successful.

ADDRESS OF THE NASHVILLE CoNvENroS.-In
our columns, to-day, will be found this admirable
document. II speaks to the whole confederacy in
tone of earnest remonstrance and decision. Will
such an address be unheeded! Will the abolition
and free soil spirit, still rampant, and charged from
the toe to the crown full of disorganising ten
dency, 60 on in the front of such warning? Or,
will the sound, practical sense Of the Union exh-
BIT itself in plain and unequvoca terms, and take
such course as will level the hills of false pride
and false ambition, which have been heaved up as
barriers to the great republican energy Of the
country, which finds in union all requisite strength,
and in harmony all desirable permanency? We
commend the address to the deep, heartfelt atten-
lion OF every patriotic mind, assured that the
petty party prejudices of the time-serving hour
will sink before the presence of those stern real-
ties and principles which must be supported by all
men conscientiously devoted to the constitution.
