The AGE OF LITTLE MEN.-The cluster of great
men who have conferred dignity on the councils Of
the nation, during the last quarter of a century
such as Clay, Calhoun, Webster, Benton, Cass, Blu.
chanan, and some few others-is passing away, and
is now nearly extinct. Only two Of that galaxy
still remain in the public serviceW ebster and Cas-
Benton has just returned to the House Of Represen-
tativss for short season. but the rest have either
betaken themselves to the shades Of private life, or
retrsated to their eternal home.
We are just entering on an age Of men, great in
stature, tremendous in feet and inches, but little in
intellect and less in genius. In this great city
never expect to see man Of eminent virtue or in
tellcct selected for any public Office. Twenty five
years ago we had such men as Van Wyck, Pauld-
ing, Hone, Jones, Peters, and many others in the
Corporation, men Of intelligence, virtue, and some

THE STEAMBOAT MAssACREs.-By reference to
another column it will be that the parties &C.
cused Of mansaughter in the case Of the steamboat
Henry Clay, declined yesterday to take the preli-
mnary investigation that three weeks month ago
they demanded. This is exactly what we anticipate
ed and predicted at the time. We knew it was
only flourish to show conscious innocence, and
that there was nothing they SO much dreaded as in
vestigation. 1t remains for the grand jury, tho
petty juries, the judges and the witnesses, to do
their duty. Apathy seemed to have already fallen
upon the authorities, and the public too, in refer
ence to this horrible tragedy, till they were walked
up by the still more fearful catastrophe on Lake
Erie, by which at least three hundred human
beings met q watery grave. This seems to have
had the effect Of jogging their memories, and
supplying an incentive to duty in the case of
the Henry Clay But with respect to the fate
Of the passengers lost in the Atlantic, there
appears to be still more culpable want Of
energy, premptitude, and frmness, on the part
Of the officers Of the outraged laws. white
washing committee, in the face of the statements
Of witnesses, and Of the accused themselves, have
attempted to exculpate them from the charge OF
recklesness, and, in fact to make out tho usual de-
fence in all such cases" nobody to blame" But
1t is to be hoped the grand jures Of Buffalo, Erie
and Detroit, will supply the deficiency, and vindi-
cate offended justice by prompt and decisive action.
Two appalling calamities have followed rapidly

GREAT BARGAINs-ERRoRs CORRECTED of
our contemporaries Of the Ned Buntline order, says
cit is perfectly well understood about town that the
HERALD sold out to the democratic party for the
campaign, just after the nomination was made"
There is slight mistake in this statement During
the last few years the democratic party has been
living on short rations, with little OF no pap They
could very i'll afford to buy journal Of any circu
lation, foB party has been scarce of funds.
On the contrary, the HERALD has been fourishng
and prosperous, and was more able to buy up the
democratic party than the democratic party was to
buy it. Indeed, it would be much more correct
to say that the HERALD has actually purchased
the democratic party as :" a time bargain'-to
use the language of Wall street-for the purpose
Of extending the boundary Of the republic in every
direction during the next four years, if they sue
coed in the coming election. We have tried the
whig party for the last four years, and know that
they are selfish, scrambling, unprogressive party,
unsuited to this great country, or the go-ahead
principles Of our people. We want, therefore, to
see the democratic party in power, from stem to
stern-from President in the White House down
to page in Congress-for at least the next term of
Office, believing that their general policy is more
congenal with the spirit Of the people Of this coun-
try, and more adapted to extend our limits, our
growth, our power and influence, over the world,
than the timid, stand.still policy Of the present
order of wings. The democratic party have shown
themselves to possess of the old Roman spirit
of growth and progress than the wings have ever
done and it is only by this spirit that the Union
be preserved intact, and the abotionists be en-
tirely swamped and put down during all future
time.

HOTEL SPEcULATIoSs.- During the last eighteen
months nearly half dozen new hotels, of different
Sizes have been opened in various parts Of the city
and now nearly half dozen more are ready to be
opened in very few weeks But it seems that this
vast addition Of hotel accommodation is not vet
sufficient; for it is now announced that the proprie-
tor OF the New York Hotel intends to outstrip and
surpass all others, and, in fact, has now entered on
project for building, near Madison square, still
more magnificent house than any now In existence.
The speculation in hotels has been running high for
some time and We suspect that before all are COM
pleted, and before the mania has abated, some oe
the new and some Of the old ones will be run down.
shut up, and ruined. About twenty years ago, o
similar mania for building hotels commenced, and
resulted in the ruin and closing up Of the old City
HOTEL the old Pearl Street House, and various other
hotels and splendid boarding houses down town. We
are now on the verge Of similar movement Il
would require ct least Eve thousand additional
guests per day to those who now visit the city, to
render the various new hotels now opening. and
those projected, capable Of paying from three to Eve
per cent interest on the outlay. Some of tho nav
hotels win undoubtedly make immense fortunes
in short time; and, on the osher hand, some of the
