Among the victims by the destruction of the
Henry Clay, (the New York Tribune remarks, J
there is none whom the country could SO i'll af-
ford to lose, or whose services to the community
can SO little be replaced as Mr.. Downing, of New
burg. man of genius and high culture, thor
oughly disciplined in his profession by long study
and observation in Europe; with taste refined
and Judgment true enough to feel the deficiencies
and to know the needs of our domestic, and es
pecialy of our rural, architecture still in the
prime of life, and exercising wide influence by
his practical labors, as well as by his writings
he is snatched from sphere Of high and beauti-
full utility: and successor we cannot hope to
find. What Mr. Downing had done and was do
Jog to improve the fashion of our dwellings hardly
surpassed in value his contributions, theoretical
and practical, to the kindred art of landscape
gardening Under his directing hand the grounds
of the Capitol and Smithsonian Institution NJ
Washington were being transformed into models OF
beauty in their kind; and the grounds about
many private mansions also bear testimony t.
the same taste, the same sense of beauty and mt
ness. AS writer, Mr. Downing was remarka
BILE for mixture of strong sense, thorough un
dersanding of his subject, and genial originality
The cessation of his monthly essays in the Hor
ticulturist will leave permanent blank in the
literature of the domestic arts. While he drew
his materials from the most varied culture, he
was always, and in the most frank and manly
way, I'm American. His chief aim was to refine
the TASTE and elevate the social life and habits, OF
his countrymen to something like the ideal proper
to freemen. An artist, scholar, and gentle
man, we deplore his untimely loss; and wide
circle of acquaintance, who with us recall his
eminent social as we'll as public qualities will join
with us in this tribute to his memory.

An ANSWER TO ALL CoMERs The Democrats
have already charged Gen. Scott with being
"traitor,' coward, n swindler," fool"
and " liar" To all such charges we have no
response to make, except forty years of glorious
deeds--a life periled for the independence and
happiness of his country-a body riddled by
British bulets-a character which has passed
the ordeal of envy and malice, and received the
endorsement of Jefferson, Madison, Monroe,
Jackson, Van Buren,, Harrison, Polk, and lay
lor. That we deem sufficient answer to all
caumnies-we will give no other; and we ADVISE
all wings to do likewise. Gen Scott is h'stor.-
cally beyond the reach of the present or the fu-
ture, and we have no idea OF Wasting tlme IN look
;nr, M proofs 10 confirm the truths of history.

PHILADELPHIA, July 80.
The brig Cimbus, Captain Kopperholdt, which
arrived yesterday from Trinidad de Cuba, was
detained on the 9Th instant, when ready to sail,
the captain of the port having received permis-
sion from the American Consul to search the brig
for three young men who had gone off without
obtaining the necessary passports. After the
search, the captain asked for pilot, but could
not get one until receiving permission of the
governor, which was not obtained until the 10th
instant. After another search on that day for
the missing men, she was allowed to sail. These
detentons are serious inconvenience to freight

ment.
