Col. Polk and his wife arrived at Gin
ington, on board steamer Pike" The
Pike was escorted to the landing by four
other steamers, all abreast; the Cincinnati
papers TEEN with accounts of the recep-
ton, the military and civil escort, the
speeches, &c. Similar exhibitions await
him at other points. A splendid coach,
built to haul Mr.. Clay over the mountains,
and christened ''Harry of the West" has,
in consequence of the strange behaviour
of the people, been christened The Pre-
sident," and has been sent to meet Polk at
Wheeling.


1t is related of Tho: Jefferson, that on
the day of his Inauguration he rode his
black mare Bess to the Capitol fence, hitch
ed her to the railing, took his saddle-bags
on his arm, and quietly walked to the Ca
pitol. He was not drawn in a coach-and
four-the men of those days did not form
military cavalcades and triumphal process
sons behind a civil officer, nor did clouds
of ofFice-seekers gather from all points of
the compass. We might dwell on the de-
generacy of tn alatter days, but-we had
best drop the 50 ject. Most of our read
ers, we fear, had rather hear something Of
the magnificent appearance of Pennsylva-
MIA Avenue on the day of the approaching
coro-- Inauguration: how that the flags
were flying, the drums beating, the cannon
roaring, the crowd huzza-ing; how that
Col Polk, in his carriage Of State, looking
solemn and care-worn, poor fellow grace
fully raised his hat, and exposed his broad,
expansive forehead and how Mr.. Dallas
smiled graciously on the assembled thong,
and how Mr.. Tyler agreed to play part
in the programme-with the thousand
other interesting particulars so eagerly read
bv the great audience of the newspapers,
the public. Verify, what an uncivlized,
vulgar old simpleton was Tom Jeffeson
This is great country, and we are rtpidly
becoming great people,
