CLAY, WEBSIEK and COIIWIN. The editor of the North American, i i the city of Mexico, is, at the Same lime, the Mexican correspondent of the North Ame rican in Philadelphia. Iu the latter capaci ty he has been much complimented by our Federal neighbors, and on one or two well- known occasions, his opinions have been paraded as the eloquent condemnation T the war and the administration. Lieut Tobey, who conducted the North Aineri can, in Mexico, is a most iutieid writer, and although he may, like others, sometimes lose his patience by the non-arrival of re inforcements and of supplies, yet there are few men in the American army, who?e heart and whose pen are more thoroughly patri otic. This able editor the favorite army correspondent of the domestic North Ame rican, in his paper, the North American in Mexico, thus alludes to the corresj endence of those who have opposed, and continue to oppose the present war. He alludes to a compliment paid to Messrs. Clay, Corwin, Webster, &c, from the Monitor Republi cano, of the city of Mexico: "Hear this Americans ! Hear it ye whose relatives and friends hare fallen in the des perate encounters of Mexico, while uphold ing the banners and the honor of your coun try ! Hear it ye stricken widows and help less orphan?, whose support and guide have laid down their lives in defence of the rights guarantied them and you by the blood of tue patriots of the revolution ! And bear it ye few remaining links between the glori ous achievments of '76 and '47. thouirh it freezes the feeble life-pulse and still your brave hearts beating forever ! God of Heav en ! Can men thus false to their country thus flattered by the common enemy of the land of their birth have the effrontery to retain itieir places m the Congress they have dishonored ? We hone not. If they have any sense of shame left, let them desert the companionship of Americans and ioin our IJ tt 11 I xicio mey couia out kiii meir coun trymenthere they stab their country." Yet, one of these men is to be (lie Whit candidate for President is about to solicit the support of the fathers and brothers of those brave men who died for their coun try in Mexico! men, whose memories he has stigmatised as robbers and land pirates! Surely he must have a "front of brass" to do an act like this. The arch fiend stand ing upon the verge of chaos, had a more enviable position, than Messrs. Clay, Cor win, Webster, & Co., the political Lucifers ui me mneteenm century. SOUND VISIBLE. In this ace of wonders what will the world think when we assure it that a meth od bus been discovered and matured by which sound will be made visible to the hu man eye, its various forms and waves dem onstrated to sight, and the pjwer to discrim inate between the tones of r.ne musical in strument and another be as complete as to observe the action of water when disturb ed by any .iiaterial cause.

The giant strides of our city in almost! every direction, is truly hstonishing. Not long since Bachelor's Grove, near Rocky Branch, was considered -nifc out of the city; but this ceased soon to be the case, as the Mound Tavern, still farther up, Was only viewed as "about the limits." Then Flora Garden was viewed as some distance from the city; but this is almost no longer (lie case as Wilson's Garden can scarcely lay claim to the remark, as is evidenced by- College Farm Retreat, near five miles north of the Court House, now strongly contend ing that it is only applicable to it.

This individual recently made his first visit to the Empire city, where cn the day of his arrival he was ac costed by a friend from Charleston. "Well, Tom," said the friend, "how do you like New York; it's a good deal of a town isn't it?" 'I don't like it at all, and I'm off bv the first boat, though I did't get here till this morning." But what do you mean; what's the mat ter?" "Why, I have just spent more than four liours walking tip and down this long road called Broadway, and have met five thou sand geople, but not a devil of lire whole crowd has spoken to me. I havn't receir cd a bow from a single man, and yet you now as well as 1 do, J'm hell on Pea Jttdgc.' Darn this New York, I'll leave it fnr P.. T? wl I. . i ... wueie my credentials is known."
