Mr.. Webster wrote letter in re-
ply TO the invitation Of the citizens
of Boston TO address them. After
referring TO the fact that Fanuel
Hall had been refused for that pur-
pose, he says:
Gentlemen-For nearly 80 years
| have been in the service cl The
country, by the choice OF the people
Of Boston, and blythe appointment Of
the Legislature of Massachusetts.
Ny public conduct through the
whole OF that long period, is not un-
known, and | cheerfully leave it to
the judgment of the country, now
and hereafter.
Since the commencement OF March,
last year, have done something, and
hazarded much TO uphold the Consti-
tuition Of the United States, and to
maintain the interests OF the most
vital importance TO the citizens OF
Boston, and shall do and hazard
more, whenever, in my judgment, it
becomes necessary that more be done
or more hazarded. ] shall preform,
with unflinching perseverance, TO the
end, my duty to my whole country,
nor do l, in the slightest degree, fear
the result.
Folly and fanatocism may have
their hour. They may not only ef-
feet the minds OF individuals, but
they may also seize on public bodies
OF greater or less dignity; but their
reign is destined to be short-even
where for the moment it seems most
triumphant.
We, of Massachusetts, are not
doomed to a course Of political con-
duct, such as would reproach our
own prosperity. and expose us TO the
derision Of the civilized world.
No such future is before US; far
otherwise. Patriotisml the union OF
good menl fidelity to the constitution,
in all its 2rovisionsl and that intelli-
gence which has hitherto enabled
the people Of this State 10 deserve
and to appreciate their own political
blessings, as we'll as what is due to
their own history and character, will
bring them back to their accustomed
feelings of love Of country, and of
respect and veneration for its institu-
tions. am, &c,

DANIEL WEBSTER.

A very interesting controversy is
going on between Greeley and Willis
on the question whether American
Ladies paint and rouge or not.
Greeley affirms that in his opinion
they do not. Willis thinks that an
examination Of the statistics showing
the actual sale of aids to the compiler
ion on this side of the ocean would
dispel any such illusion. Greeley
thinks painting and all attempts 10
improve the complexion wrong per
Sc, and calls it jugglery If a woman
attempts 10 appear otherwise than as
God made her. Willis, in reply saws,
if such things are "positive dishones-
ty," there are serious sins committed
also with cotton! and insinuates his
belief that there is no more sin in
painting than there is in fascinating
with figure ,ohich at night hangs
over the chair.
That will do. We think Willis
has him.

PThe political waters in New
York are a good deal disturbed at
present. We noticed the resigna-
ton Of the Locofoco Senators to de-
feat the passage OF the canal law
The Governor has ordered an extra
session Of the Legislature, and the
election to fill the vacancies caused
by these designations has been or
dered. The canal policy will be the
question at issue. The Locos claim
that the law which they defeated
was a violation Of the constitution Of
the State. The Loco Attorney Gen.
eral thinks the same, but Daniel
Webster and other eminent lawyers
have pronounced it constitutional.
A warm time for New York politi-
clans.

1t seems that PARCELS, had filed up
an. old blank warrant Of Governor

Justice from other States, with SPen-
GERS name, and handed il 10 him.
Spencer asked PARCELS if he wrote
it, on receiving yes for an answer,
Spencer drew his pistol and shot him.
The Mayor, before whom Spencer
was examined, ordered him TO be
committed for trial, for murder in
the first degree.

JENNY LIND IN PITTsBURGH.-Bar-

give two concerts in Pittsburgh, but
after the close OF the first, he ordered
the advertisements for the second

The New ATTORNEY GENERAL.
A Cincinnati correspondent of the
Springfield Republic gives the follow
ing account Of this important off,
GERS doings since he received his ap-
pointment from Gov. Wood. We
happen to know that he commenced
trading in whiskey as soon as he re-
ceived his commission, which was
about the time the Convention ad-
journed.-Cin. Atlas.
Governor Wood appointed McCor-
mic, Of Adams county, late member
Of the Convention, Attorney Gene
raj in place of Mr.. Stanberry whose
term Of office has expired. Mo
received his commission on Satur-
day, and was sworn in by Judge
Spaulding, since which time he has
been constantly drunk, so much so
that Drake sent him bag and bag
gage out OF his hotel in double quick
time. il is due TO the Governor TO
say that he is mortified at the ap-
pointneni, and never would have
made il, but for his democratic
friends.

Charles Sumner has been elected
q. S. Senator from Massachusetts
Thus has been consummated the OBJ
ject Of the coalition OF AboIitionists
and Locofocos at the polls last fall.
4 few Of the Locos could not be
made to live up to the arrangement.

Of the coalitionists may be formed
when the traitor and Tyleriie, Caleb
Cushing, refused to descend that low.
Mr.. Sumner acted with the Wings
at one time, but for a few years
past has acted as the leader Of Bos-
