tn ITRAW1. Mr. Ex-Seoretery Buchanan baa bees invited by debt bandred and fourteen of the eitisens of Lancas ter p. t0 accept from them a public dinner, which. by a letter dated the 5th ha respectfully de cline.

The following is a copy of the letter, one sentence of which, marked by italics, contain a more liberal confession than wa bad expected from any member of Mr. Polk's government. We rejoice that Mr. Buchanan ha so soon discor- ered the departure of Mr. Polk's government from the standard principle! of the democratic party, and yet mora do we rejoioe that be ha bad th manliness to ascribe the recent disasters and Ignomioiotie defeat of that party to its proper source.

The north will re'iaire something a little more ex plica and penitential by and by, but thia will do for a beginning. L.SCA4TEE, April 5, 1S49. Fei.i.ow Citizens Accept my cordial and grateful acknowledgments for the very kind welcome which you have extended to me on my return to the place frem which icy heart has never wandered Sufialiwl with vtithlt. hnnnrf mini nnhlie offices. I fel har.py in the Drosoeet of passing the remainder of my days among the cherished friends and companions of my youth, and their worthy descendants.

Ileiice-furward it shall be my ambition to perform, usefully and acceptably, the duties of a private eitixen. To my fellow-citiiens of Lancaster county, I am personally, professionally, and politically indebted for as much kindness and support as they have ever bestowed upon any other individual. ven times have I been before them as a candidate for office, and seven time bava they honored me with a large majority of their suffrages. Whilst I deeply regret that at present the majority honestly diner from me in politwai opinion, yet this dreams tance can never caneel the obligations for past favor recorded on a grateful heart. ion state truly that "many and trying have been the scenes through which th republic has passed exciting and momentous the issues decided by the federal government," during the long period of more than tweaty-Mvea yean sine 1 first took my seat, in I leocmber, a your representative in Congress.

Sines that time, tin country ha advanced rapidly and sLtadily, in prosperity and power, under the guidance of democratic principle, with but a few brief interruption. I The impartial historian who hall tract event to their cause will find that whenever ihete principle have bee departed from in th administration of the government, whether state or national, disastrous consequence have followed whilst a steaily adherence to them ha uniformly promoted th welfare of Hit country. For my own part, after long experience, it is my solemn and deliberate conviction that their prevalence is necessary not only to the harmony of th states, but to the perpetuity of the Union. Whilst the democracy has aver built upon it ancient foundations, it has not remained stationary in the development of its principles, when all the world around it has been ia progress. On the contrary, recognizing the right of the people to control their government, it has ever advocated the extension of their power over their own agent, and everywhere with the happiest results.

This may be called progressive democracy but it is in fact the great con servative safeguard of our liberty, property, and union. Universal suffrage combined with universal education can alone, under th bleating of Providence, correct the tendency of power to steal from the many to the few, and successfully resist the encroachments of capital upon the right of labor eacroachments which have been made in all countries and under all governments of which we have anv histories! record. Under these deep convictions, I shall ever adhere to the democratic creed, and as a private eitixen shall always cordially support democratic men and mea- sores. This unquestionable right, however, shall be exercised by me with kind personal feelings towards political opponents. To worship God according to the dictates -of his own conscience, and te form and express his political opinions, are inherent rights of every American citizen ana to assail ana persecuta any man or any party for the exercise of thee sacred rights would be to violate the precepts of Christian charity, the spirit of our institutions, and the dictates of true policy.

It would ill become to state (he part I have taken in the many exciting and momentous political questions to which you refer, that have agitated the country during the period of my publio service. My ereatest honor and hichest reward, next to the ap probation of my own conscience, are, that 1 have been sustained throughout my past career, by the intelligent, faithful, and glorious democracy of my native state. I might add, that I have enjoyed the confidence of every democratic administration of the lederul government sine 1 first took my seat in Con gress, commencing with that of Mr. Monroe, from all of which 1 havo received voluntary offers of high and honorable appointments. The administration of James K.

Polk, in which 1 bore a part, I am eon-tent to leave to the impartial historian. In returning amongst you, it shall be my pride and my pleasure, a a private citizen, to siutaiu the democracy of this renowned old county, whether in prosperity or adversity, and to promote, by all honorable means, the harmony of lb party. In union alone there is strength. 1 regret that circumstances, which I need not detail, deprive me of the pleasure of accepting your kind invitation to a publio dinner, but I regret this less as such meetings at best partake in some degree of a formal character, and it is my desire to mingle freely among my old friends and neighbors of Lancaster county, without tho least restraint. I therefore, in turn, earnestly invite you, one and all, to call and see me at my residence, as often as your convenience may permit, where you shall meet a cordial and grateful welcome from your friend and fellow-citizen.

JAMES BUCHANAN. To lion. Ellis Lewis, Michael Carpenter, William 11. Fordnev, Dr. N.

W. Sample, Joel Lightner, Capt. John Steele, and others. Correspondence of the Evening Post. Washinotos, April 11th, 1849.

We have yet only rumors from your city election. Snch as the intelligence is, it indicate that tbe bunkers, by co-operating with the whigs, have defeated the democratic candidate. If so, they have but followed their instincts, and ranged up along side of the administration, a position to natural to them that it is not surprising they should never feel at borne when separated from it. Kemote a I am from the scene, perhaps no incident or oonsequcne of the struggle touches me so nearly as the effect this result is likely to produce upon the venerable editor of the Union, who has been for many weeks promising bis reader a glorious triumph of his sort of democracy, in the Empire city. The part which the veteran and distinguished disciple of and '99 ha performed inreffcr-euce to the late elections in New York and Connecticut, bas excited fears that after baring ridden and broken down the old democracy, and a strong administration, he now means to bestride the broad shoulders of free toil.

Considering his farmer fierce denunciations of the principles of that cause and tho men who sustain it, it certainly does appear strange and ominous that he should now be crowing so lustily over the election of three out and out free soil members of Congress from Connecticut. The Intelligencer very pertinently directs publio attention to this change of tactic on the part of tho quondam organist. Mr. Richie shuffles, and replies by saying that at the worst be is as good as his whig assailant as regards consistency on ibis topic. Perhaps he is, and yet be may need absolution.

The whig here wink at one another and now and then at a good natured demoerat, and affirm that the President knew what he was about when be refused to make the New York, appointments till after th election. A dozen men who expect an office will do more in an election than the incumbent of it, be he never so zealous and expert. It is authoritatively said that unless Gen. Taylor stands by the party, tbe party will not stand by him. Virginia, howver, is the point to which observa- tion is mostly directed.

Mr. Botts, and somebody else, have both secured a nomination in the Rich mond District, and their friends are fighting each other much more bitterly than they are the democrats. There was some trouble in the Accomao District, but there Mr. Bagley and Henry A. Wise appear to have gone into partnership, and have sprung a mine upon their enemies by taking np the southern caucus address, by eulogizing all who framed and iff ued it, and by denouncing, with equal severity, all who refuse to give in their adhesion.

These latter are called Southern Abolitionist, sympathiser, and so 1 should think it probable, from what I hear, that the whigs will lose three of their six members, which will reduce tbe whig majority in the House to ten. Some old wbigs inform me, that notwithstanding the by authority" contradiction of tha rumor re garding cabinet changes, it is currently whispered in whig circles, that President Taylor ha declared that bo can have no one in his cabinet who, having aspiration to tbe presidency, uses hi position as a Udder to the elevation his hope and wishes point to. Tbe reference is understood to apply to Mr. Clayton. It has, therefore, been proposed, or hinted, that be will be provided tor by being sent to England in place of Mr.

After the abundant and well arranged supper had been disposed of, Mr. Blunt, the President, delivered a brief eulogy upon Mr. Clay, in which he -outnd himself with significant strictness to th record. Mr. Blunt had not yet beard of Mr.

Clay's defeat in th last Whig National Convention. The following letter in reply to invitations to th festival were then read, from Mr. Clay, President Taylor, and ex-President Van Bnren Response of Sir. Clay. AsnxaD, 6th April, 18j.

Gcmn eh I received last evening your official letter, stating th purpose of a few of my fnds in New York to celebrate my approaching birth-day, and inviting my atUndaoc on the occasion. Feeling that this honor far transcend any merit 1 possess, or th value of any publi service 1 ever performed, 1 am, nevertheless, deeply aneciea oy is, and recognise in it a proof of friendship whmh excite in ny breast sentiments of profound grmtitade and thankfulness. 1 pray you, gentlemen, to accept your selves, and to tender to your associate an assurance of my treat obligations, and of my cordial and re spectful acknowledgement. al a I have just termi nated a long voyage and a long absence from home, it is not in my power, a yon anticipated, to accept your kind invitation. Roetproeating, with all my heart, your obliging wishes for my health and happiness, I am, most traly and faithfully, your grateful friend, H.

CLAY. Letter from President Taylor. Wasuisgto.x, D. April 10, 1849. CESTLtJin Your favor of tbe 5th inviting me to attend a celebration of the birthday of Mr.

Clay, is just received, it would afford me pleasure to join you on that occasion, and assist in doing honor to a distinguished patriot, whose history is identified with the honor and fame of bis country, but the urgency of official duties renders it impossible for me to leave the seat of government at this time. I am, therefore, compelled with regret to decline the courteous invitation which yon have been deputed to aena to me. I remain, with respect. Your obedient servant, Z. TAYLOR.

Response of Mr, Van Buren. Lindikwald, April 10, 1849. Ukxtlexe I feel myself honored bv tout invita tion to attend th festival to be given by the friend of i lenry Clay on the occasion of bis birth day. It afford me much pleasure to be assured of th favorable reception by your Association ef the opinion I have heretofore expressed of the character anu claims to publio consideration or yonr venerable friend, and of tha nature of yonr devotion to him. Those opinions are still entertained, and I therefore need only add an expression of my sincere regret that it will not be in my power to avail myself of your present politeness.

1 am, gentlemen, Very respectfully and truly your. M. VAN BUREN. At the close of the reading of President Taylor's letter, the following regular toast waa announced by the President: The Ulemory of Washington. Men blush that there wa but one." Music, 'Dirge.

To this toast Daniel Ullman delivered a paraphrase upon a chapter of Cornelius Nepos commemorative of the yet unparalleled, yet unequalled, and yet un approached greatness and goodnes of General Washington. Tbe following fable bad not been published when Mr. Ullman made his speech, if it bad been be would undoubtedly have recited it before closing we therefore give it a we find it in the Boston Post this morning, and a Mr. Ullman would have given it, had it arrived in time.

To rival Michael Angelo In artist-like inventions Or rule like Washington" I trow. Needs more than good intentions The reading of Mr.

Van Burea's letter waa prece ded by the following toast TAe Boast of America "fxeedom." "To preserve its consistency the soil of newly acquired territory should not be marked by the footsteps of invol untary servitude To which, in obedience to a universal call, says the Tribune, Joseph L. White rose and after defining hi position, nominated Henry Clay, of Ashland, as th candidate of the whig party in 1852. It deserve to be remembered that but evening wa tbe anniversary of Mr. Clay' nomination by Mr. White, four years ago, under similar circumstances, at Niblo's garden.

Against a run of ill luck it is the practice of skillful gamesters to change hands some times, and it would have been at least as auspicious for Mr. Clay if he could have received his re-nomination at the hands of a new man. Mr. White's speech, like the rattle snake, is most remarkable for its head and it tail. It commences by denouncing the "calamity" experienced by General Taylor' nomination, and with the assurance that he, at least, would not cave in," and aonolude with a proffer of his unconditional support to General Tay lor's administration, throwing Mr.

Clay's influence into tho bargain. When I contemplate the fact," he begins, that but one year since our hopes were rising, and our belief was confident that the theory of the ingratitude of republics would not find a confirmation in our day and generation, I feel that tc hate indeed experienced a calamity. Assembled on thi spot, but a few month ago, we believed that the gratitude of this nation would be truly and fully manifested to one whose best and noblest efforts have been given to its service. For forty year Henry Clay bad devoted himself to the development of the energies and resources of this country, and we believed that the nation wenld set it seal on those labors by his elevation to the Presidency. A few short month patted, and that hope wa blotted.

It was not by the act of God, it wa not for the want of affection instant, pressing, ardent, omnipresent throughout the land in the bosoms of men, but on account of a malicious, malignant Hisses and loud calls for other speakers were here heard Gentlemen, may 1 speak here 1 Speak ont speak out It waa on account of a deep-seated, malignant, eternal hostility that the nomination, that the man wa defeated, and tbe hope of hi friends, and the desire of tha whigs of the Union, swept away by on fell blow. Yes, and that blow wa wielded by th hands of traitors in the whig camp! By that blow, of the combined power of treachery and of money, the friends of Mr. Clay were denied their home, and tent forth to watuter upon ttrangt ground and then, at a whig, a Clay whig, an ultra whig, applause, determined that wliatever courtt other tn their judgment and conscience might adopt, 1 at least would not cave in and 1 never have." Mr. White concluded his speech with the following profession of allegiance, designed, however, to bo construed independently of the last aentenc above quoted "But I owo a word to our Taylor friend who are present, and as they have listened with some patience to my remark thus far, they will, I trust, now bear with me while I pay the debt. After the election was over, and 1 saw the President surrounding himself with a cabinet composed of snoh men as John M.

Clayton and Thomas bwing, I doubted no longer as to the whig tendencies of the government. 1 gladly believe that it cannot be anything else but whig, nor do 1 believe General Taylor to be anything else but a whig. And while the administration ia carried on as it is begun, we are a whigs, as Clay whigs, bound to sustain it without reserve. Allow ms also a prediction Henry Clay is about to return to tbe Senate. And in that scene of his early triumphs and of hi mature power, 1 tell you, fellow-citizen, there will be found no more sincere, no abler advocate and champion of this present administration, than Henry Clay of Kentucky.

And now, 1 trust, that a a Clay man, 1 am under stood. 1 intend to make no faction opposition. 1 never bad such an intention. If the Convention had nominated Clayton, Crittenden, Corwin, McLean ye, or even Daniel Webster, 1 should have support- mm wiin -II mv numbla ahilitv and influence. But it is, let us forget our doubt as to the hero who has been chosen, and shaking band together on one common platform, rejoice in the lucoess of whig TT7ur' not 0Ter- Wend, and the favorite of the whig party, vet remains to na.

How far it will satisfy hi whig allies at Washington to be told that the Buffalo platform wa thorouhly whig, and how far it will serve to make Mr. White's peace with General Taylor, it is not our business to conjecture. There is (say the apologist) a eeret chapter in the history of th Buffalo Platform, which has never yet been written for public inspection- I will now give it to you, fellow-eitixeo, in extreme confidence, and in a profound belief that it will never find it way beyond tn wall ot mix room. iiaugnMr.j When I went to Buffalo 1 bad no doubt that Mr. Van Buren would be the candidate fixed upon.

1 did not go as a delegate, but rather a a spectator, and for two day refused to enter tho tent where th business was being transacted. Bat subsequently I wa induced to tak part, and wa appointed apon th committee to draft resolution. Th matter wa again left to a lub-committee, of which Mr. Butler and Mr. Chase, now Ohio senator, wort member.

I had pro-pared resolution decidedly- embodying a proteotivo tariff, internal improvement and payment of tho national debt, all sound whig doctrine the dootriae of Henry Clay.

A General Taylor' principle are note all well de fined, particularly upon the subject of freedom in the new territories, about which Mr. Joseph L. White affected once to feel some interest and as he has (elected a cabinet, the principle of a majority of whom, are equally well defined, and as Mr. Joseph L. White ha disaovered that tbe principles of both are entirely in accordance with the Buffalo platform, why, of course, Mr.

Joseph L. White could do no thing less than to give those principles the necessary support of hi nam and favor. Willis Hall and Dudley Selden do not appear to have been present. Mr. Greeley was, and made a speech, to which the Tribune thus allude "Horace Greeley responded to this toast in tome remarks of which the substance may yet be given, in case tbey should be desired, or are very badly butchered in some other paper it not, they may pasa unre- poricu.

Th reolozieal formation consists of the Taleoee slate, mainly in a slate of entire decomposition, or disentegralion probably to a ereat depth subordinate to th slate, there are regular masses of hornblende rock, or more properly sienite, which appears olten in Urge beds, forming knoll upon the surface.

In addition to the homblend ia th quarta, or flint rock, in beds or aeams, traversing th alate in lines parallel to that of the alate; all of which run N. and S. orNNW. These quarts reins constitute the matrix of the gold tbey vary in width from half an inch to fifty feet, all of which appeared to auriferous. Having satisfied myself of the character of the bed and of the rock formation generally, I proceeded on tbe second day to determine the tact whether the gold wa common to th (earn of quarts which I had found in place.

-1 (elected from three of thee seam or beds, two of them narrow, the other from a bed at least fifty feet thick. In each and all of them obtained gold. Mr. Uerby washing it for me. The fifty feet bed of course was not tested as it should be, but a specimen of the snas taken at random which contained oxide of iron and which appeared as favorable a any part.

I did not indeed expect to find it, but there wa no doubt of tbe fact it is not so rich apparently as the thinner beds, and the particle of gold are smaller, but it was found in the first and only piece of the rock which I tried. The most important point which I supposed you wished me to direct my attention, and to determine without question, was the probable quantity of quarts rock or ore, aa it is called. On this point 1 satisfied myself that there ia an abundance, leaving out of view entirely the heavy beds of quarts which 1 found cropping out at th surface on two ride of the farm team or vein from an inch to 18 inches exist, no doubt, concealed by the oil. I ay thi on tha ground that large piece of quarts hava been carted from the soil. Th condition of the quarts vein 1 quite remarkable and interesting, and will be found standing up in the midst of a mass of perfectly disentegrated slate.

A fact which will greatly facilitate mining operations, and diminish the expense of excavation, tbe whole work being reduced to the simple operation of shoveling. This morning 1 tried a piece" of the quarts which I brought home, and found it rich, although 1 could not discover by a microscope any particles of gold. it will be understood, however, that ldo not speak of tbe yield of gold. 1 do not deem it at all necessary to analyze the rock for this purpose, but it was proper that 1 should see the gold produced from specimens of my own selection. 1 should have accompanied this report with a sketch of the geological formation of the place, but it did not appear necessary indeed I could not do it accurately without measurement.

1 think tbe richest part of the farm is that towards the woodland, and that the best way for working is to cut a deep treach or ditch, running east and west through the centre of the field, and work each way the seams of quarts a ihey are met with thia will intersect the quart at right angle, and it give great facilities ia working. Th farm itself ia a beautiful and well cultivated piece of land it is a pleasant residence, the house and outhouse being in a good state of repair. Its value for cultivation alone, lam, of course, unable to speak of. There is no waste land, and is well watered with the purest of water. Th foregoing statements constitute tha most important facts which fell under my observation, and which of themselves certainly if taken in connection with the analyses at the mint establish the value of the property.

At the late fire in Catharine street, which we announced yesterday, occurred aa incident worthy of being recorded, to show the intrepidity and philanthropy of the firemen of the city. In the family of Mr. Ward, who lived in the house at the tim of th fire, wa an infant only about two yean of age. In the extreme confusion of the alarm tha infant wa left in bedjn th upper part of the house. Its absence was not discovered until nearly fifteen minute had elapsee, when the mother.

frantic with grief and agony at the awful thought, announced th fact. It seemed too late. The fire and smoke enveloped the chamber, ren dering all aid hopeless. Then a fireman, named Abraham Blows, volunteered to enter the house and rescue the child. A ladder was placed against the side of the burning building, and be went up to the window and entered and brought out the infant, but it was dead, having been smothered by tbe smoke befor it could be resoued.

Boasd or Supervisors At a meeting of the Board of Supervisors, held last evening, Recorder Tallmadge in tbe chair, a report wa made by the Committee on County Officers in favor of appointing a new assistant clork for the Register, with a salary of $700. A Remarkable Phenomenon. learn, upon th authority of the New York Sun, that Dr. Beck, Professor of Chemistry in Rutger's College, New Brunswick, has in hi possession a pane of glass with a bole in the centre, in the shape ef a circle, as per feet aa if drawn on mathematical principles. It was, strange to say, perforated by tbe extraordinary hurricane which passed over New Brunswick about six teen vears airo.

levelling in its path a streak of houses the whole lencth of the town. In on of the window this pane wa discovered, with a hole in it, sad what ia remarkable about it, is, that the perimi ter of th hole is as smooth as a polished gem, so that the finger may be rubbed around it with impunity It ha the appearance of being forced oat while tbe glass was in fusion, hence the theory to explain it, namely, that the current of air had a spiral motion in tbe centre of the column, th astonishing velocity of which had collected a nucleus of electricity equivalent to a voltaio pile of gigantic construction this beat being opposed by tBb glass suffiicently absorbed it to prevent the communication of fire toother elements in its path, while the suddenness of contact with this amazing beat caused the perforation of a canty so perfectly circular, and so smooth in its penmiter Th pane was taken from the window, and now very worthily occupies a place in th Doctor cabinet.
