sixty cents per dozen. Dealers will forward their or
ders two weeks previous to the time they wish them filled.

THE UNITED STATES SENATE AS IT WAS.
Ex-President Tyler in some remarks upon his
connection with Henry Clay in this body, at the
recent Clay festival at Richmond, (Va.) brought
out some remarks from Mr. Jamea Brooks, of
New York, in the course of which Mr. Brooks
thus sketched, oflF-hand, the Senate of the 22d
Congress, in which Mr. Tyler was an active mem
ber:
* * * The suggestive remarks of the Ex-
President of the United States, (Mr. Tyler), have
carried me back to the second great era of Mr.
Clay’s life, when I, but a youth and all unknown
to him, (Mr. Tyler), was a looker on in the
scenes he has been describing, and in which he act
ed well his part. Because I was a youth, the
more vivid is my memory, and the more clearly
can I recall all the men and the history of the
22d Congress. Never, perhaps, did there as
semble in one hall a more intellectual body of
men than then graced the Senate chamber of the
United States; and among them all, Clay shone
foremost and brightest in the radiant host. (Ap
plause.) Andrew Jackson, of iron will, was Pres
ident; the brilliant meteor of South Carolina was
Vice President. There was John Hoime.s, ol
Maine, sharp, witty and keen—an owl by night
to espy out lacts, and a Cossack by day to spear
with them the enemy. There was Sprague, his
colleague, but in everything his contrast—elo
quent, elegant, scholar, too, as well as an orator.
'J'here was Isaac Hill, of New Hampshire, the
onee renowned and well feared editor, writer,
gueirillero, scn'ptor, as well as actor rerum.
There was the classic Robbins, of Rhode Island,
who had Pinder and JEschylus at his fingers’ ends
and .Juvenal and Per.ius, and to whom Delphos
and Parnassus and the golden sands of Pactolus
were as well known a.s Narragan.sett or Pautuck-
et. (Laughter.) There was Prentiss, of Ver
mont, Judge, Jurist, Juristconsult, at home with
Coke on Littleton, and more at home with Fcarne
on Contingent Remainders. (Laughter.) There
was Foote, of Connecticut, if not himself immor
tal, embalmed for immortality in the great de
bates of Webster, Hayne and Benton, on “Foote’s
resolutions.” (Applause.) There was Marcy,
of New York, Governor, Secretary—a man not of
books, but by his genius above books—who prtAa-
bly never read Vattel,Grotius, Puffendorf, orBur-
lemaqui, but who knew all about them by in
tuition. (Applause and laughter.) There was
Dickerson, of New Jersey, strong for a protective
tariff, but stronger yetfor Andrew Jackson; (laugh
ter;) and there was his colleague, Frelinghuysen,
whose name is not mellifluous, but whose periods
flowed in mellifluous eloquenceand in soothing sen
tences, and of whom we made music, nevertheless,
in our political songs of Clay and Frelinghuysen.
(Laughter.) There was Dallas, of Pennsylvania, af
terwards Vice President, now minister to England;
he, too, was strong on the tariff, and strong for An
drew Jackson—strong too for the Bank, but
stronger yet for Andrew Jackson; who had
the strange luck to be against his 'party ia
almost every principle, and yet to win its high-
e.st honors and positions. (Renewed laughter.)
There was Clayton of Delaware, the Secretary,
Negotiator, Diplomat, (the Clayton and Bulwer
Treaty,) who would read novels all night and skir
mish in debate with Zouave-like agility all the
ensuing day. There was Samuel Smith of Mary
land, the soldier, the merchant, the stattsmai!,
in a very enlarged sensj of the word. 1 remem

could play with the yataghan or rapier, or with
the small sword, or the broad sword, or with the
broad axe or the cleaver; and though he could
not kill the Clays or the Websters—he could
teaze them half to death, and often mal®? them
ridiculous. I’here was King, of Alabama—eie-
irant, highminded, accomplished, also—who,
though not old, became the father of the Senate,
from his long continuous service there. There
was Poindexter, of .Mississippi—“Old Poins,” as
he was called—both keen and cutting, too—
clear sighted and clear headed, with a great razor
like logic that cuts everybody without seeming to
try to do it: (Laughter.) Ohio sent her Ewing
—Tennes.see, that Cato, Hugh L. White, a very
Homan in look and act; and Grundy—Felix Grun
dy, a leading member in the Democratic firm of
1812, which the t'ederalists nick-named as the
firm of John Holmes, Felix Grundy and the
Devil. (Loud laughter.) Among the.se strong
men there loomed Vp Webster, Hayne, Benton,
with (^alhoun at one time presiding over tne body
and at another time a member of it. Mighty
questions were before those mighty men; rivals
tor the favors of their countrymen. The Lnited
States Bank, the Protective Tariff, the Public
Lands, the agitating matters of Finance, were
mingled tip with graver topicsx)f Nullification, Se
cession, State rights, Federal Power, and the fa
mous I’roclamation of Gen. Jackson against his
native State, South Carolina. Webster ranged
himself on the side of Gen. .Jackson. The light
ninglike eloquence of Hayne flashed against, and
struck upon the Websterian shield; but all in
vain. The giants themselves of the Senate Cham
ber—Clay and Webster—next came into hot col
lision upon the subject of a gradual reducii>n of
the Tariff of 18'2H; Clay for, Webster against it.
The debate was unreported; but it was-- one of the
I most brilliant struggles of those giant minds,
j These were indeed troublous times. South C’aro-
' lina had mu-^tereJin Charleston, all bristling ;n
j arms, and Gen. .Jackson had sent Gen. Scott *ith
, Col. Bulkhead and others to meet war with war.
But amid and over all this storm, there locked
out one serene spirit that hushed and calmed the
