 Return Q the President.-Y esterday mOrn- ing, about half past n o'clock, we learned that the President of the United States, accompa- nied by the Vice President, Secretary Wood- bury, and his Private Secretary, Col. Earle, and Isaac Hilf of New Hampshire, arrived in this city; and that all, except the last, were on board the steam boat Providence, ready to start for New York. A few of our citi- zens who had heard of the unexpected arrival of the President, SIc. called at the steam boat to pay their respects, and inquire after the Presidents health. The President informed them that it was his intention 10 go home through Albany, but the fatigue of his journey was 90 great, and his health SO much in,pair- cd, that on his arrival at Concord, he thought it most prudent to seek the nearest place where he cDtld secure steam boat convey a1ce as far as Baltimore. Had the state of his health permitted, he observed that he should have been highly gratifed to have talk. en wider circuit, and returned to Washing ton by different route. but he had need of more repose than he could take in travelling by land. and prudence had dictated the pres ent course, although he extremely regretted that he could not perform his conte plated tour. -

 1Ae Presidenfs Return.-Yesteraay morn- ing at 6 o'clock. the President of the United States, accompanied by MT. Van Ruren, MT. Woodbury, and Mir. Donelson, came down. the east river in the steam boat Providence, on his tSturn to tho seat of c Government, with out stopping in the city. The Providence saw the New Philadelphia under way, made a signal and gave chase for her, and after stop ping. the party was transferred on board her, off GovernOr's Island. We are informed by gentleman who was passenger in the PrOvi- dence. that the President. although not liter. ally sick, appeared to be worn down by the fatigues of his tour. He left Concord on Monday morning, and lodged at the house of Samuel D. Bradford, Esq. at Jamaica Plains, in Roxbury. that evening, without visiting Boston. Next morning he proceeded direct to Providence, and so secret were his move- naents. that no knowledge of his arrival was com nunicated, either at Boston or Providence -and when it was told here yesterday that he had passed the city, few were found at first to give credit to the report.

 The President has certainly acted a wise and prudent course in returning. Since the com mencement of his tour he has narrowly escap- ed. in several instances. from fatal accidents and has been obliged to call in medical aid s"SCGs \ u0 u0W UCoBeS IuTOu&O WOtC0 ne has had t0 pass ; the multiiudes which have surrounded him, and the numerous deputa- tiORs which he has been obliged to receive and answer. were sell calculated to exhaust an aged man with feeble constitution.

 r. S.-We are indebted to the politeness of Capt. Diehl of the New Philadelphia, for the Following additional particulars relating to the tnoveaIents of the President. His avow- ed motive for this sudden movement is bodily 'n'ilsposition and fatigue. and the uDpleasant coolness the Eastern climate. He express ed great satisfaction at having succeeded in ocvertaking the New Philadelphia of BedlOw's Island, and with the comfortable accommo- danOns of that beautiful vessel. Captain ID. states 1t to be the intention Of the President to proceed to Washington without stopping. and that he will reach the Capital by IF o'clock this day (4th inst. .J-that he will have ample time to rest On board the Wm. Penn, | m the Delaware, and also in the steam boat between Frenehtown and Baltimore. We ] sincerely hope that the President will receive 1 oeaeht instead of injury. from the exercise and fatigue he has undergone The President of the United States reach- ca Philadelphia on "Wednesday afternoon, and passing from one steamboat to another proceeded on his journey without landing. Much conjecture is venlured as to the cause
