His prompt, dis charge of this duty was duly appreciated by the Re publicans of Franco, and wannly approved/ by Mr. Polk, who, in a special message to Congress, dated April B,’ 1848, communicated Mr. Rush’s despatch, announcing the, Revolution and subsequent occur rences, and said: 7 *. “The prompt recognition of the now.

(Mr. Rives,, wo believe,) was appointed by thp* Taylor-FUlmoro-Administration, when ho returned home. This was too last public position hold by Mr. Rush. _ It will bo soon that, few American statesmen have been in toe public service for a more* extended pe riod) Jn important positions, than tho subjoctof this Memoir.

Ho recently removed to-a. town residonco which belonged to him, in -Eighth street, near Locust). whore ho breathed his last. His wifo, Mrs. Catharine Eliza Rush) died, a few years ago, at an advanced ago, while ho still resided at Sydenham. She was a native of Maryland. An obituary notice appeared at tho time of her death which attracted much at tention, and was prepared by Chiof Justice Taney, who' knew her woll in early and later life. Mr. Rush loaves three sons, Benjamin, J. Murray, and Rtehard Rush, Jr., and two daughters. During toe long career of this eminent American, he sustained not.only an enviable political reputa tion, but established a name for purity of charac ter, integrity of purpose, and sincoro patriotism that may well bo quoted as an example for imita tion. * Up to tho period of his last illness, and during the intervals when his physical sufferings enabled.him to do' so, ho continued to toko tho doopcst interest in public affairs, indulging his literary'tastes and contributing to promote tho welfare of his beloved .country by ovory moans within bis , power. f Nothing gratified him more than tho society of educated publie-mcn, and no statesman of our 'day was at the samo thno nioro agroeablo and fascinating in conversation, or more Willing, in' his own gontlo and winning manner, to furnish, frpmjiis fast oxperienco, such suggestions and'information as jtyigbt c ß°B fc that thp pharpors suddenly dooampod wj^^Q Iparing thp planter to bewail hi* loss, .anf that ho was ■tho victim of 11 c Cpneotiout.

ILPHIA, MONDAY, AUGUST I, 1859. ruly 31, 1859. WAfIHINQTOHI Letter from Bedford,' [Correspondence of Tho Press.] Bedford Springs, July 29, 1859, Tho “season’ ’ horo bos boon unproeodontedly euo oossful. White a good many othor summor resorts havo, as I see by the journals of tho day, boon sad ly neglected, tho only troublo horo has boon to ac commodate tho numerous applicants for rooms. A ‘largo number havo necossarily boon turned away .from tho doors qf tho hotel, and havo been obliged to soek quarters in tho town, (which is about a milo and a half distant.) At prosont thoro are at least four hundred guosts horo, and ono hundred more in Bedford. This dolightful resort, however,- pos . so3Boa so many substantial attractions that I do,not wonder at Its popularity. As a watering place, it ie of no musbrooom growth, but during tv long sories of yoars it has beon gradually acquiring tho hold it now possosscs upon public favor. At prOsont about'twenty miles of stago-coaoh travel, I from Hopowollj Is necessary to roach'it, but a rail. I road is now boing constructed ovor twelve mites of this diatanoo—to Bloody Run—and on the remain- ing oight milos it is supposed, that tho railroad makers will also soon commonoo operations. I think it not unreasonable to anticipate that after this now railroad is lqtd down, Bedford Springs will count hor annual guosts by'thousands rather than by hundreds, if buildings sufficiently exten sive to accommodato thorn aro erected hero. Tho purity ? and health-giving qualities of tljo mountain air; tho modicinal virtues of the water; ‘ tho beauty of tho surrounding scenery, .and tho many superior natural advantages of this locality, delight all our visitors, and unite to place Bedford Springs upon a proud pre-eminence among Ameri can summer resorts. An idea which has a tendency to injure tho springs in gonorul estimation extensively prevails, which my limited observation bos led mo to bo-, liovo to bo in a great measure unfounded. Many appear to sijpposo that it is in an unusual degree a resort for politicians; but, while that important branch of.the human speoitgj js_ undoubtedly repre sented horo, it is but just to say that thoy form but an infinitesimal minority of tho present guests, who arc chiefly raodo up of unpolitical pleasure, recreation, and hcnlth-seekors, from various por tions of Pennsylvania and neighboring States—• your own good city having sdnt hither a numbor of tho citizens of this class. • Those who suppose that tho prosonco of the Pre- sident amongst us has oxcitod any profound sensa tion, or called hither any considerable number of prominent Democratic politicians, aro egregiously mistaken. It is a happy theory of our Govern - ment that its officials—oven thoso who occupy the highest positions—aro tbo sorvants of tho people rathor than thoir ‘masters, and whilo tho offices thoy occupy aro treated with proper respect, tho mou who hold them pass current in sooioty at-just about thoir ihtrinsio worth, without much roforenco to tho official; stomp upon them. Tho significant hint of tho offioial organ, warning off all office huntora ftrojp tho prodnets of Bedford, under penalty of dire Executive displeasure, has beon takon, In fact, it has boon most too effectual, for you know, as well as I do, that When alt who wish official favors keep out of tho Presidential pro senoo, his train of courtiors becomes an extromoly small ono. The ohilUng reception which' the re nomination artieloof tho Pittsburgh Post received has beon very annoying, And too President has : doomed it inoumbppt upon himself to reaffirm, in tho rn'ogt opiphatio terms, his determination not to bo a candidate for tho Presidency again. He do* dares that in his lato speech in North Carolina ho aiiiiounoed that ho was ft firm bcliovor in the doo* tribe of Nathaniel Macon, who hold that no man should servo more than ouo Presidential term un der any circumstances. Not satisfied with this, ho has had the following paragraph insortod in too Bedford Gazette of this morning': . ■ “Mr. Buchanan and the Next Presidency.—A fow days ago the Pittsburg Post arrived here, con- I twining an-ablo editorial qrging that undor cortain I qontingonoies,- Mr! Buchanan must again bocomo a I oandidftto for tbo Prcsidonoy. This surprised many ■ | ol the President’s friends in Bedford, who wbuld willingly have supported his rornommation, biit who had often heard him dcolaro, when on his visit to tho Springs last yoar, tbat ho never would, un der any oiroumatanqcs, hoaomo a candidate for that high offioo. Mr. Buobanan arrived at this j placo shortly after this article mado its appearance, I and, in conversation with his frionds, whilst doing fulliustico to tho friendly intentions of the'editor of too Post , ho promptly and unhositafJngly do* I clarod that ,his determination on this subject was final and irrevocable.
