TIE EMPIRE CLUB.-Every body who reads whig newspapers has heard oI the N. Y. Empire Club, and those who have deriv- ed all their information through those chan nels have heard nothing of Capt. Rynders and his ssboys.o From the abuse heaped up- on them by the Whig press, it would be easi- ly inferred that 1t is democratic club, and that it had done service in the late contest These two things were sufficient to secure for them the everlasting hatred of Whig edi- tors.

 The Empire Club were at Washington at the Inauguration of President Polk, and they attracted much notice from their ..red Jack ct uniform They selected the night of the 9th inst, to pay President Polk visit, and like another company in these parts which was no iavorite with the whigs, but d strong prop to democracy, they went in procession with their torch lights. As they returned from the White House, and had got opposite the National Theatre, the cry of fire was heard. How .'the Boys7 acted ill the pre- misses, is thas described by one of Bennefts correspondents

 "The Boys,o as they are called, in their red jacket uniform, immediately threw away their torches, with every thing else, and rush ed into the work of trying to put out the fire and save property. Most efficient men. too, were they; every where amidst the spreading flames and flying cinders, could their red jackets be seen -on top of a house wonder carrying out furniture here, working at an engine there-ilying about and working like iures in every quarter They were, by far, the most active and efficient men on the field of action. Capt. Rynders was not whit be- hind any of his men; his coat was of, while he encouraged his boys to go s'ahead,n which they did in gallant style. Long live the Elm pire Club. 'Give unto Cesar the things that are Cesar's.''

 Such conduct as this furnishes the very best answer to the abuse heaped upon the Empire Club. They proved themselves to be men of heart and ncive.-.NaSh. Union.
