THE MAYOR AND Mr.. WEBSTER. Last
evening splendid party was given to Mr.. WEBSTER
| by His Honor AMBROSE C. KINGsLAND, Mayor o: the
| City of New-York. The members Of the present
| Common Council, and members of former Boards,
| Hon Geo. Bancroft, Hon Henry Grinneil, Dr. Kane,
| of the Arctic Expedition, Recorder Tallmadge, ex.
Mayor Brady, &c, &c were among the guests pres
ent The distinguished Secretary of State received
the hearty congratulations of all parties. The eve.
ming was spent very agreeably.
The speed attained on the Hudson
River Road is believed to be without parallel in
this country. Two locomotives lave been put
on the track-the speed of enc was three hours and
twelve minutes between NewYork and Albany, and
the other only three hours and eight nihuses-the
whole time, including stoppages, only four hours.
The streets are nearly clear Of ice
hills and sloughs, and have in exchange an abun-
dant supply of mud. A drenchipg rain for the space
of forty-eight hours, more less, would fl things
about right.
