The President of the Republic. The President's mansion is more like an En glish Club-house, both within and without, than any other kind of establishment with which, I can compare it. The ornamental ground about it has been laid out in garden walks; they are pretty, and agreeable to the eye; though they have that uncomfortable air of having been made yesterday, which is far from favorable to the dis play of such beauties. My hrst visit to this house was on the morning after my arrival, when I was carried ibitlier, by , 'Tw ,m "", an official gentleman, who was so kjnd was re pons.ble for .is preserving a becom eh9re fcJLeir with n.v nresentation lo tfifpA. characler "! PPe.ng to the best advan- LV? " - We entered n large hall, and having twice or thrice rung a bell which nobody answered, walk ed without further ceremony through the rooms on the ground -floor, as divers other gentlemen (mostly with their hats on, and their hands in their pockets were doing very leisurely. Some of these had ladies with them, to whom they wero showing the premises; others were loung ing on the chairs and sofas; others, in a perfect state of exhaustation from listlessness, were yawning drearily. The greater portion of this assemblage were rather asserting their supremacy than doing any thing else, as they had no particular business there, that any body knew of. A few were vsibsj - closely eyeing the moveables, as if to make quite sure that the President, (who was far from popu lar) had not made away with any or the turm ture, or sold th fixtures for his private bene fit. After glancing at these loungers; who were scattered over a pretty drawing-room, opening upon a terrace winch commanded a beautilul prospect of the river and the adjacent country; and who were sauntering, loo, about a larger state-room called the Eastern Drawing-room; we went up stairs into another chamber; where were certain visiters, waning for audiences. At the sight of my conductor, a black in plain clothes and yellow slippers, who was gliding j noiselessly about, and whispering messages 111 the ears of the more impatient, made a sign of recognition, and glided o(T to announce j him. We had previously looked into another cham ber fitted all round with a great bare wooden desk or counter, whereon lay files of newspapers, to which sundry gentlemen were referring. But there were no such means of beguiling the time in this apartment, which was as unpromising and tiresome as any waiting room in one of our public establishments, or any physician's cli- Tiing-room during his hours of consultation at home. There were some fifteen or twenty persons in the room. One, a tall, wiry, muscular old man, from the west; sunburnt and swarthy; with a brown-white hat on his knees, and a giant urn brella resting between hia legs; who sat bolt up right in his chair, frowning steadily at the carpet, and twiiching the hard lines about his mouth, as if he had made up his mind 'to fix' the President on what he had to say, and wouldn't bate him a grain. Another, a Kentucky farmer; six-fccl-six in height, with his hat on, and his hands under his coat-tails, who leaned ogainst the wall and kicked the floor with his heel, as though he had Time's head under his shoe, and were literally 'killing' him. A third, an oval-faced, bilious looking man, with sleek black hair cropped close, and whiskers and beard shaved down to blue dots, who sucked the head of a thick stick, and from time to time tock it out of his mouth, to see how it was getting on. ' A fourth did nothing hut whistled A fifth did nothing but spit. And indeed, all these gentlemen were so very perse vering and energetic in this latter particular, and bestowed, their favors eo abundantly upon the carpet, that I take it for granted the presidential housemaids have high wages, or lo speak more gciuceny, an am pie amouni ui -uuiiiptuoauvu, which is the American word for salary, in the case of all public servants. - We had not waited in this room many minutes, before the black messenger returned arid conduct ed us into another of smaller dimensions, where, at s business-like table covered with papers, sat the President himself. He looked somewhat worn and amious, and well ha might, being at war with every body: but the expression of hia face was mild and pleasant, and his manner was remarkably unaffected, gentlemanly ami agreea ble. I thouehl that in his whole carnage and de meanor he became his station singular! well. Being advised that the sensible etiquette ol In republican court admitted of a traveller, like my self, declining, without any impropriety, an invi tation to dinner, which did not reach me until 1 had concluded my arrangements for leaving Washington some days before that ts which it re ferred, 1 only returned to this house onre. It waa on the occasion of one of those general as semblies which are held on certain nights be tween the hours of nine and tweUe o'clock, and are called, rather oddly, levees. . , , I went, with my wife, at about ten. There was a pretty dense erowd oT carriages and people in the court-yard, and,' so far as I could make out, there were no very clear regulations for taking up or setting down of company. There were cer tainly no policemen to soothe startled horses, either by sawing at their bi idles or flourishing truncheons in their eyes; and I am ready to make oath that no inoffensive persons were knocked violently on the head, or poked acutely in their backs or stomachs, or brought to a stand still by any such gentle means snd then taken into custo dy for not moving on. But there wa no confu sion or disorder. Utir carriage reached the porch in its turn, without any blustering, swear ing, shouting, backing, or other disturbance; and we dismounted with as much ease and comfort as though we had been escorted by the whole me tropolitan force fmm A to Z inclusive. The suite of rooms on the ground floor were lighted up, and a military band was playing in the hall. In the smaller drawing-room, the cen tre of a circto of company, were the President and his daughter-in-law, whovaeted as die lady of the mansion; and a very interesting, graceful, and accomplished lady, too. One gentleman who siood smong this group appeared to take upon himself tho functions of a master of the ceremo nies. I saw no other officers or attendants, and none were needed. The great drawing-room, which I have already mentioned, and the other chambers on the ground floor, were crowded to excess. The company was not, in our sense of the term, select, for it comprehended persons of verv manv grades and Mirages; nor was there any great display of cost ly attire, indeed some of the costumes may have been, for aught I know, grotesque enough. But the decorum and propriety of behaviour which prevailed were unbroken by any rude or disagree able incident; and every man, even among the miscellaneous crowd in the hall who were admit ted without any orders or tickets, to look on, ap peared to leei that lis was a part ol the institution, tage. That these visiters, too, whatever their station, were not without some refinement of taste and appreciation of intellectual gifts, and gratitude to Inose men who by the peaceful exercise of great abilities shed new charms and associations upon the homes of their countrymen, and elevate their character in other lands, was most earnestly testi fied by their reception of Washington Irving, my dear friend, who had recently been appointed minister at the court of Spain, and who was among them that night, in his new character, for the first and last time before going abroad. I sincerely believe that in all the madness of Ame rican politics few public men would have been so earnestly, devotedly, and affectionately caressed, as this most charming writer, and I have seldom respected a public assembly more than I did this eager throng, when I saw them turning with one mind from noisy orators and officers of state, and flocking with a generous and honest impulse round tho man of quiet pursuits; proud of his promotion as reflecting back upon their conntry; and grateful to him with their whole hearts lor the store of graceful fancies he had poured out among them. Long may he dispense such trea sures with unsparing hands; and long may they remember nim as worthily ! L Ilrown Forester of the Nlssissipril. We had another odd specimen on board of a different kind. This was a thin-faced, spare-fig. ured man, of middle age and slatue, dressed in a dusty drabbish-coloured suit, such as I never saw before. He was perfectly quiet during the first part of the journey; indeed I don't se member having so much as seen him; until he was brought out by circumstauees, as great men often are. The conjunction of events which mode him famous happened, briefly, thus. The canal extends to the foot of the mountain, and there of course, it stops; the passengers be ing conveyed across it by land carriage, and then taken on afterwards by another canal boat, the counterpart of the first,, which awaits them on the other side. There are two canal lines of passage-boats; one is called the Express, and one (a cheaper one) the Pioneer. 1 he Pioneer gets first to the mountain, and wails for the Express people to come up, both seta of passengers being conveyed across it at the same time. We were the Express company; but when we had crossed the mountain, and had come to the second boat, the proprietors look it into their heads to draft all the Pioneers into it likewise, so that we were five-and-forty at least, and the accession of pas sengers was not all of that kind which improved the prospect of sleeping at night. Our people grumbled at this, as people do in such eases; but suffered the boat to be towed off with the whole freight aboard nevertheless; and away we went down tne canai. ai nome, 1 snouia nave pro tested lustily, but being a foreigner here. I held my peace. Not so this passenger. He cleft a path among the people on deck (we were nearly all on deck,) and without addressing any body whomsoever, soliloquised as follows: "This may suit you, this may, but it don't suit me, 1 bis may be all very well with Down tasters and men of Boston raising, but it won't suit my figure no how; and no two ways about that: and so I tell you. Now, I'm from the brown forests of the Mississippi, I am, and when the sun shines on me, it docs shine a little. It don't glimmer where I live, the sun don't. - No, I'm a brown forester, f am.- I ain't a Johny cake. There are no smooih skint where I live. We're tough men there. Rather. If Down Easier and men of Boston raising like this, far glad of it, bat I'm none of thai raising aor of that' breed. No. Tbis eoropany wants a little ixing, U does. I'm the Wrong sort of maa for 'em, I am. They won't like me. they woo'l This ia 1l piling of it op, a Utile too moBnmiNNM this is.' At the eml of every one of thess short sentencW he turned upon his heel, .and walked tht tfhef way; checking himself abruptly whrt' Im ftsd finiihed another short sentence, and turning back' again. It is impossible for me to say what terrific" meaning waatldden in th words of this brown forester, but I know that the other fnsseagerr looked on in a sort of admiring horror, and thaf presently the boat was pot back to) Dm wharf, and as many of the Pioneers as eoold ho' coaxed or bullied mle going away, were got rid 7 r of. - ; ' . - - . - When we started Igain, some of the WsWesf spirits on board made bold to say to the obvioae' occasion of this improvement ia oar prospects, 'Much obliged to jv$,"mf whereonto the brown forester (wavkrf hie FnindV srai still walking op' and down at before,) replied, Noi'yotr aa'w r You're none tr my raising, foo may. act for' yourselves, you may.

He was nnaoimeaa- ly voled one of the tablet for his. bed at night there is a great contest for the labiet in conside ration of his public service; and be bad tho' warmest corner by the stove throughout tho rest' of the journey.
