Mr&2o,

PoLTICAL.-There is unusual activi-
ty among the leaders Of the American
party at the present time, and measures
have been taken in New York, Pennsyl-
vania, as well as in this and other States,
for thorough reorganization of the
party. The Newburyport Herald says
The Know Nothings of the free
States are attempting to re-organize their
party upon Southern platform, prepar-
atory to another Presidential campaign.
Indications of their labors are seen in
Massachusetts, and rumor says that
movements are on foot among their lead
ers TO obtain a more extensive control o.
the press in Boston than they heretofore
had. They viii probably urge matter,
this summer, to obtain the control of the
next Legislature, and the United State;
Senator, if possible; and it is very sur
prising that the Republicans, by the folly
of a long session of the Legislature anC
increase of State tax are to give then
the benefits of the howl about economy
that will be set up, for sixty days only
ABOUT the middle OF September"
If we may trust to the tone of the lead
ling organ of the American party in thi
State, the Herald is incorrect in stating
that the reorganization of the party vii
be upon a Southern platform. There
no evidence in the columns of the Be
of any abatement of hostility to the poll
cy Of slavery extension, and the Spring
field platform is decided barrier to an
fall from grace. But nous Uerrons a

alliances. has been maxim Of our poll
CIV ever since the days of Washington,
and its wisdom no one win attempt To
dispute. In short, we ought to do justice
in kindly spirit TO all nations, and re-
quire justice from them in return.
1t is our glory that while other nations
have extended their dominion by the
sword, we have never acquired any terri
tory except by fair purchase. or, as in
the case Of Texas, by the voluntary de-
termination of brave, kindred and m
dependent people, to blend their destinies
with our own. Even our acquisitions
from Mexico form no exception. I'm
willing to take advantage of the for
tune of war against a sister Republic
1--WE purchased those possessions under a
treaty of peace, for a sum which was con.
sidered at the time fair equivalent.
Our past history forbids that we shall
lin the future acquire Territory, unless
this be sanctioned by the laws of justice
and honor. Acting on this principle, nc
nation will have a right to complain Oh
interfere if in the progress Of events we
shall still further extend our possessions
Hitherto in all our acquisitions, the PEG
Iple under the protection of the American
flag have enjoyed civil and religious lib
erty, as we'll as equal and just laws, anC
have been contented, prosperous ant
happy. Their trade with the rest. of til,
world has rapidly increased, and thu
every commercial nation has shared
largely in their successful progress.

prescribed by the Constitution, whils

Providence on this great people.

PA,

Mrs MuRRY, an English woman, who
visited the United States in lS4S, pays
the following tribute to the preeminence of
three distinguished American ladies. She
says
II have seen three arointcd kings and
three inaugurated Presidents. admire
the Presidents the most. I have seen three
queens; and three ladies who have shared
the honors of the presidency; and truly
among the queens not one could compare
with the regal grace Of Mrs. Madison, the
feminine, distinguished personnel of Mrs
Polk, and the intelligent, lady-like demoa-
nor of Mrs. Adams. Mrs. Polk, we're it
not for the same defect in the teeth which
charactcrisos Queen Victoria, would be o
very handsome woman. Her hair is very
black, and her dark eyes and complexion
gives her a touch Of the Spanish DANES
These American ladies are highly cultivated
and perfectly accomplished, and practiscd
in the most delicate and refined usage Of
distinguished society. Mrs. Polk is very
well read, and has much talent for con-
versation; she is highly popular; her
reception Of all parties is that of kind
hostess and accomplished gentlowoman.-
She has excellent taste in dress, and both
in the morning and evening, preserves the
subduod though elegant costume which
charactcrises the lady. She is ready at
reply, and preserves her position admi-
rably. At levee, gentlem an remarked,
Madam, you have . very gentecl assem-
blago tonight Sir replied Mrs. Polk,
with very good humor, but very significantly,
Il never have seen it otherwise Cue
morning found her reading. 4 have
many books presented me by the authors,
said she, and 1 try 10 read them all; at
present this is impossibl ; but this evening
the author of this book dimes with the
President, and would not be so unkind
as to appear wholly ignorant and unmind-
| ful of his gift.'."

The GRAVE OF Henry CLAY.-TL

The GRAVE OF Henry CLAY.-TLr
editor Of the Fort Wayne Times has beou
on journey through Kentucky, and wen
10 pay his devotions to the grave of Henry
Clay. In the cemetery not for from Lex
ipgton, he searched for it first among thoso
covered with entablaturcd slabs, obelisks,
pyramids and imposing monuments, bu5
the name was found on none Of these--he
sought it among less imposing tabulets, but
found it not. A lad at last led him to the
spot, where little mound marked only by
the path worn by the foot prints of devoted
countrymou, told that the Great CommOner
still lived in the hearts Of the people,
Near by, was the monument affectionately
Inscribed by Mr.. Clay to bis mother.
On IN adjoining eminence, which is q
beautiful site-with On area Of half an
acre, circular in form--the people of Ken
tucky are to erect monument Of fKentucky
marble, of beautiful design, which is to rise
100 feet in height, under which the ashes
OF the noble son of our sister State are to
be deposited. The corner stone will be
laid On the 4tb of July next, with imposing

TIE bellies STRATAGEM.-There are
more ways, says the Liverpool Albion, OF
eludipg the vigilance of the lynx eyed
guardians than by ladder of ropes from
chamber window, as the sequel will
show.
About the middle of last week, two young
ladies and two gentlcmcn, all apparently
in mourning, paid morning visit to a
church in a quiet neighborhood in st,
Anne's Ward. On entering the church
the door was closed and locked, and the
ladies leaving the gentlemen to disencum-
Der themselves Of their overcoats and draw
forth their white kid gloyes-retired be-
hind the pulpit, whence having relieved
each other Of the habiliments of woe, they
shortly emerged in full bridal attire. The
object of their visit was now apparent, and
the clergyman, accompanied by minor
official, appearing from the vostry, they
joined the metamorpbcsed mcurnors at the
altar, when the nuptial ceremony was gone
through. The gentlemen then resumed
their ovcrcoats, the ladies again retired to
their imprOmptu robing room, and reap
poaring in their mourning costume, the
happy party left the church, looking as
domuro as though their visit Lad been for
the purpose of inspecting a tablet erected
to the memory of defunct relative.
