PRESENTED TO * DANIEL WEBSTER/ The Defender of the Constitution, •By tbs Citizens of Boston, • QctOber 12, 1835. The ceremony of presentation took place at the Odeon in the presence of more tlian three thousand persons. The late Mr. Francis Calley Gray, a man held in honored remembrance by bis .friauds for his remarkable abilities, and yet more remarkable at tainments, on behalf of ilie subscribers addressed Mr. Webster in ? speech worthy of the occasion, and Mr. Webster’# reply is one of the happiest and most cha racteristic efforts of one who was generally more at home on the field of debate than upon the rhetorical parade ground. . The Webster vase has become the property of the subscribers, who beg leave to present it to.tbeelty of Boston, with a request that it may be kept in the hall of the Public Library, as a place of deposit com bining security with the largest opportunity of public inspection. We wish that it may remain forever in some spot where may be freely seen by such of the subscribers to its purchase as are still living, and by tbe*childrenand grandchildren of.those who, like Mr. Webster himself, have passed away from earth. Our satisfaction in making this disposition of the vase would be increased if we could, believe that the. sight of this testimonial of a people’s, gratitude would lead the young then who have home into active life since Mr. Webster’s death to a more careful study of his immortal writings, and insnire them with a more earnest phrpdSe to imitate nis generous and comprehensive patriotism. We have only to add that this disposition of the vase is in conformity with the wishes of the . late Colonel Fletcher Webster, and of his son, Mr. Ashburton Web ster, a young gentleman now in the Naval Academy at Newport, upon whom, in default of such disposition^ the vase would have devolved by the provision# of his grandfather’s will. This interesting communication was signed by about forty of the solid men of Boston, former friends and admirers of the great “expounder of the Consti tution. " The response of the Board was as follows : His Honor, the Mayor, having laid before this Board the communication from Messrs. George W, Lyman and others, proposing to present to the city the Web ster Vase, to bo placed in the Public Library. Resolved, That this highly gratifying gift be ac cepted, and that His Honor, the Mayor, be requested to present the thanks of the City Government to the • liberal and patriotic donors. Resolved, That tlie Trustees of the Public Library be requested to place the Vase in some appropriate sit uation upon a suitable pedestal fo be procured by them, the expense thereof to be charged to the appro priation for incidental expenses. Resolved, That the elegantly engrossed communica tion addressed to His Honor, the Mayor, by the donors, be suitably framed and placed in the Library, the expense thereof to be charged to the appropriation for incidental expenses. ANOTHER DEMORALIZED CONSTABLE. Ono Rev. Captain Constable Johns, who was ap pointed some time ago to run the prohibitory machine in Berkshire county, has been sadly demoralized by the temptations thrown in his way, inasmuch aa he has been detected in blackmailing on a large scale in his bailiwick. He has departed in haste. Johns was formerly a minister, a strong advocate of total absti nence and the prohibitory law. He was also a hypo crite, one of many made by bigoted legislation. AN INTERESTING TRIAL. One John Gallagher, well known among the rougher ‘sports” of Boston, has been tried in the Supreme Court in this city this week, and convicted of man slaughter, for causing the death of a man by shooting last winter, in a midnight row in Gallagher’s saloon, on Washington street. He will probably have an op portunity to meditate npon his life, which has been £Fn>o the New York Times.} AM HOUR WITH GENERAL GRANT. .an at the rate of $10,000,000 a .week* All the l the Treasury to bring down its price have |> It has gone up to 138, and somo think it is higher.

THE LEGISLATURE is still in session. , The infamous Jury Bill, discrim inating against all who deal in liquor, which was ve toed by Governor Andrew last winter as unconstitu tional, was very adroitly*killed the other day. The investigation of the affairs of the State rum shop, and the doings of the State agent, still continues. A re port is expected in a few days. THE THEATRES ’ have been very Well patronized since my last. John Brougham has changed the character of the audiences at the Howard, which has been running down of late, and Maggie Mitchell has had crowds of admirer# at the Boston. Maggie is a great favorite here. The Museum entertainments have been spiced by a choice* bit of scandal, in which ‘Wilson, the walking gentle man of the place, has been reported to take the place of the villain in a domestic drama, leaving Mrs. Vin cent, his respectable old wife*—old enough tq be his mother—and cleaving unto the leading Lady, Kate Denin, who is a very clever actress. All three leave at the end of the season, unless Mrs. V. chooses to re main. The parties appear on the stage together, as of old, in the face of the town talk.

The editor of the Lewiston f’alls Journal, pow at. Washington, recently spent an hour* in the studio of the Maine artist SimmQns, in conversation with Gen- ■ eral Giant, and gives an interesting statement of the opinions expressed by him upon “m£n. meas ures.” Some people will doubt Whether the General would unbosom himself so fully to a stranger when he is habitually so reticent.; but we give the story aa we find it. The writer says : * “The General, who was dressed in a plain, black, civilian suit, had hardly removed his hat from his head before lie took a cigar from his pocket, lighted it and began to puff out wreatiw of smoke. T am break- Sjing off from, smoking,’, remarked Grant. ‘When L was in the field I smoked eighteen or twenty cigars a day, but now I smoke only nine 6r ten !* “The conversation turned to the Virginia campaigns of 1864 and 1865. ‘I notice,’ remarked General Grant, 'that Mr. Swinton haa published a history of the cam paigns in the Old Dominion, in. which he takes the ground that I gained nothing, but, on the contrary, lost many valuable lives uselessly, by moving my army from the Rapid&n direct toward Richmond, rather than ay taking it around by water to the Penin sula, asMcCiellan did. This,’ observed the General, *is a revival# the exploded theory [referring to The McClellan policy] of subduing the rebellion by. peace measures. A half a million troops might have been kept within sight of Washington till doomsday, and the rebellion would have flourished, mors and. more, vigorously day by day. Fighting, hard knocks only, could have accomplished the work. The’ rebellion must be overcome, if overcome %t all, by force; Its re sources destroyed, its fighting material obliterated, before peace could be obtained.’ % “ * There were but two failures in the VRgfnia cam paign of 1864 which ought to have been successes,’ said Grant, -and those were the failure to capture Pe tersburg when we crossed the James, and afterwards at the mine explosion. But,* added Grant, ‘it was all for the best that, we failed in those two instances, for had we succeeded at either time Lee would have at once been obliged to abandon Richmond, and would have been able to secure a safe retreat into the inte rior of the South, where he would have prolonged the contest for years. Our failures then, and the determi nation of the rebels to hold on to their capital, gave us time to extend our left southward, to bring up Sherman from Georgia, and thereby made it impossi ble for Lee-to escape.* “In reply to a question as to whether he was not surprised aa to the suddenness of the collapse of the rebellion, Grant said that he was/ although he had al ways supposed that when it would break down, it would go all at once. ‘I thought, however,* he re marked, ‘that it would hold out another season, and lam not #ure,* he added, ‘bat that it would have been better for the country if it had. There wore some psrts of the country where our armies had never trod, particularly Texas, which needed to feel the blighting cffect’^pl war to bring their people to a realizing sense* of the enormity of their crime and the necessity of 41 thorough repentance. I find,’ said he, ‘that, those* parts of the South which have not felt the war; and particularly those which have been within our lines, uud have therefore escaped the rebel conscription and taxes, arc much less disposed to accept the situation in good faith than those portions which liavd been literally oyerrun with fire and sw'ord.’ “Reiefriug to tho temper of the Southern people, he remarked that they are much less disposed now to bring themselves to the proper frame of mind than they were one year since. ‘A year ago,’ said he ‘they were willing to do anything; now they regard them selves as masters of ihe situation. Some of the rebel generals/ he added, ‘are behaving nobly and doing all they can* to. induce the peox)le to throw aside their old prejudices and to conform their course to the changed condition of things. Johnson and Dick Taylor par? ticularly, are exercising a good influence; but,' he added, ‘Lee is behaving badly. He is conducting himself very differently’ from what I had reason from what he said at the time of the surrender, to suppose he would. No man at the South is capable of exercis ing a tenth part of the influence for good that he is, but instead of using it he is setting an example of forced acquiescence so grudging aud pernicious in its effects as to be hardly realized.' “ ‘The men who were in the rebel armies,’ said Grant, ‘acquiesce in the result much better than those who staid at home. The women are particularly bit ter against the Union and Union men. Of course, he added, ‘there is some bitterness of feeling among all classes, but I am satisfied it would soon die out if their leading men had not somehow got tlie idea that treason, after all, was not very bad, and that the 'Southern cause, as they phrase it, will yet triumph, not in war, but in politics. In my jfldgineut,’ said Grant, ‘the tone of certain men aud certain papers at the North is such as to do incalculable mischief iii making the late rebels believe that they are just as much entitled to rule as ever, and that if they will only standby what .they are pleased to call their -‘rights/they wili have help from the North. This,’ significantly added Grant, ‘is only playing over again the incipient stages of the rebellion.’ He was confi dent that the large majority of the Southern people would smother their resentments aud beeoffie'good citizens, if these mischief-makers at the North (the t/Gpperheads) would only let them alone. For him self, if he had the power, the first thing he would do would be to seize the New York News and kindred sheets, which are giving the South so dangerous an idea of their own position and rights. ’ “ ‘Troops,’ said Gen*. Grant, ‘must be kept hi all the principal points in the South for some time to come. This will be necessary to repress, ihe turbu lence of a class of the South very dangerous to all well-disposed persons, and also to protect the rights of the freedmeii, who* are .looked upon with deep hatred by a very large proportion of the people. 1 am in favor, however,’ he added, ‘of not retaining our volunteers for this duty, because they very natu rally think that they fulitilled their engagements one year since.’ “Grant spoke m high terms of Sherman, Sheridan, Howard and other Generals, apd referred to our*Mex- icau difficulties, forcibly adding that he believed the French invasion of Mexico a part of the rthellion, and he should have been glad to have 'seen a de tachment of our army sent there one year since. He W ILL give prompt at «ntion to receiving and for warding gyods, sales on consignment, and all -orders; and will also keep constantly on hand- a good stuck of Groceries, Liquors, AgricuHnr.il Imple ment.-, Building Materials, Fairbanks A Go’s Scabs, &c\, besides other goods and manufactured articles tor.sulo on consignment, and for which they arc a.ents.

He never, has mind enough to keep his body from rotting, consequently he has always been a mass of putrefaction; he has never had sufficient common sense enough to last him. ovre night, so that he wakes np a miserable fool every morning; and this last effort <jf hie in the Whig is the pooreat, feeblest, the jejunest, tlie most contemptible that we have seen, even from him. It does not rise even to the low level of invec tive. There is no more talent hi the writing* in the scratcliings of'a dung-hill fowl upon a duug-hill. It is a mere concatenation of vulgar epithetsand lie*— vileTies for which there is not shadowy ghost of a broken down, infuriated, and weak old man or no man—*o weak that, like the lean dog that we read of, he has to lean against a fence to do bis barking.

He is a foul bubble floating on tlie surf ace of a cess-pool. It in pretty extensively believed in Nash villa .that Brownlow is insane. We don’t believe it. Insanity has been defined to be “the entanglement of thoughts,” but he basn't-thoughts enough to make a tangle. ‘Tie a pity fbr him that he isn’t insane, for it would be the only excuse, utter mental imbecility excepted, for the disgrace he is inflicting upon the State in Which he dwells.

According to the most reliable data that can be obtained the actual amount necessary to carry out the .provisions of the bill, and mete out equal justice to all, without any distinction, is a#foltows: 191,985 three months troops, at $20 each, $4,799,625; 19,076 six-month* troop*, at $60 each, $953,800; 87,588 nine month* troop*, at $75 each; $6,566,850 ; 9,056 twelve month* troop*, at $100 each, $905,600; 30,950 two- years troops, at $100 each, $3,095,000; 1,132,570 three year* troops, at $200 each, $226,514,000; total, $242,831,875. The three years troops in the above table are those who received $100 on muster out, and therefore all of thooe who served ont the full term will be entitled to $200 each. Of these three yegrs taen,136,507 re-ep- Usted as veterans, and have received additional bonn- monkind. But he has ever promoted strife* and fights, i ties, so that- a deduction of $200 each must be made for them. Still further reduction must be made for deserters, for enlistments from rebel prisons, for soldier* who have sold their discharges, arid for sol diers who have been discharged at the request of parents or other persona, or on the ground of minority. The total number’sf deserter* reported to the Provost Marshal’* Bnresu during the war was ?78;000; allowing a wide margin for mistakes, it is estimated that 200,000, or 7>4 per cent.-, will cover the actual desertion*. It has-been thought proper to allow 21, per cent, for all other causes of non-paj ment. Makiffft these deductions,the net amount necessary ■ to equalize the boubtics op the scale of this bill is : — ... . .$121,-2*0,988.
