This little gravo is in tho lot of John Jay Smith, Esq., tho president, and tho’originator of theso grounds; grounds which but r for tho’fol lowing touohing incident xnight forever havore ihained unemployed fertile purposes to whioh th'oy are 'now appropriated, rand • for!, which by nature they nro so admirably l adapted.- TJiq Executors ?f •Mr. Smith- resided ,at Burlington, N. j., whore many generations wore ,buried.. His attention .to • tjio .inodo of interment, Jn, Philadelphia. was not called intonotion untilhc had long been n resident of this city, | whop; ohild of terred in a oity buryirig-grouhdy the'vibVof subsequent removal. In doing this in which tho coffin had been deposited was found portly filled with water, tho thoughts of which: ; so impressed. tho father’s mind with tho. necessity of having a public cemetery in some suitable location* away from tho water-holding soil of the oity,.that it was for somo time "the subjeot of his constant thoughts. Ho mentioned tho topic to a fow gobtle mon’, tho first of whom was Benjainm W. Richards; Esq., ex-Mayor of tho city ; and on tho 14th of November, 1835, the first meeting with reference to tho projeot was held, and was attended by Messrs. John Jay Smith, Nathan Dunn, B. W. Riohards, William Strioklond, Frederick Brown, Thomas I. Wharton, and John Struthcre. At this mooting Mr. Smith was appointed secretary, and requested to look out for a suitable site. Pursuant to this the Woodlands, late tho proporty of tho Hamilton family, but then owned by a Mr. Mitchell, was applied for, but indignantly refused, on the grounds that their owner expected thoso lands erelong to become the site of a oity for tho living, and not a home for the dead. That whioh might have tho prestige of priority is now Woodland Cemetery, on tho south of the city. In the month of February, 183 G, Laurel Hill, formorly the country seat of Mr. Joseph Sims, but then owned and occupied by several Catholic priests os a school, was heard of as being for sale, and was forthwith purchased. The original pur chase contained thirty-thfee acres, thirteen of which were on tho opposite side of tho turnpike. Here' now is the beautiful Church of St. James tho Less, on ground presented for tho purpose by the managers of tho cemetery. . As an evidenoe of the vigor with which tho pro jeot was pressed forward, wo less than of. tho favor It mot at the hands of ouroitizeus, there wore on tho - 10th of May following tho purchase already ono hundred persons waiting for lots on tho secre tary’s-books. There are now about twenty-eight hundred ! Somo opposition was, of course, encoun tered at tho'beginning, as is tho case with, many a progressive movement. Tho plan was greatly enhanced in publio favor shortly after, its com mencement, by the safe of certain burying-grounds belonging to various congregation's, nnd tho caro loss 'and thoughtless manner in whioh the dead bodios In sortie of them woro taken up. Soon it was ascertained that tho soil of Laurel Hill was most remarkalily-adapted for burial purposes, being of grovel or decayed 1 sand-stone; tho citizens became moro familiar with thesito, and.tho selec* tion was rcocivod with increased and all but uni versal favor. Sovoral Bostonians who visited it •expressed their preference for it to Mount Anbut-n. In comparing tlio two it should bo remembered that their distinctive peculiaritiesaro entirely dif ferent/ Thelftttoris a forest cemetery, whilst Lau rel Hill-presents all the characteristics of a gnrden beautified'by art. In a visit to it John-Quincy Adams pronounced it equal to any spot he had ever seen for such h purpose, and Henry Clny told a friend of our own that if he died within a hundred miles of Laurel Hill, ho wished to he there in terred. The first funeral nt Laurel Hill urns nn event, and as such dcserrcs to bo noticed. It took place on tho 21st of Ootober, 1836, and was thus an nounced in the newspapers of tho 20th: “ Died, yesterday morning, 19th instant, after a short illness, Merov Carlisle, wife of Abraham Carlisle, aged 07. • “Her friends, and those of the family, are in vited to attend the funeral, from her late residence, No. 219 North Fourth atreot, to-morrow morning, 2lst instant, at 9 o’olock. Funeral to proceed to Laurel Hill Cemetery.?’ How new was tho last clause of this announce ment then ! How familiar now ! Alas, with what volumes of silont grief is its sound associated in many t bereaved heart! This interment was made within a year aftor tho inception of the pro ject. Upward of eighty thousand dollars had been spent in improving, levelling, road-making, and in walls and buildings, during that short in terval. There is a spice of enterprise l in the his tory of this whole affair that is worthy of emula tion. Iu ono year from tho time ho first men tioned tho snbject, Mr. Smith removed tho remains of his little dnughtor to their present resting place, perhaps tho second sleeper in theso beauti ful grounds, and the suggesting cause of tho whole movement. The story has never before been told in print, and is now only given from a wish to make so interesting an event in the annal 9 of Philadelphia complete. Mr. Smith is yet living, and by no means aged. Ho still devotes a portion of almost overy day, taken from a delightful rural home, to the supervision of these exquisitely-kept grounds, to which ho has given twonty-throe of the best years of his life, and whore he has seen, with satisfaction, that his fellow-oitirens have awarded their entiro approval. Almost evory tree, and nearly all the shrubs, were planted by Mr. Smith’s direction, and we might say with his own hands; and to his knowledge, of landscape gardening are wo indebted, at both the, North .and South,divi sions, for tho effects which delight every visitor. When to this is added that this gontloman has long .been cosnectod with tho press, and now devotes a portion of his leisure hours to editing tho Jlurti cuUuralist, a successful periodical on rural taste and rurul art, commenced by tho celebrated Downing, enough will liavo been said to mark a useful life, and which will doubtless some day re ceive a more - fitting recognition than the pages of «nowspaper pan bestow. . * Minnesota Tho Minnesota Democratic .

That; tho States of the Union arc sovereign and equal; and tho powers not expressly delegated to the Fedornl Government uro retained by tho poop'o of tho States. “2. That the people of tho Territories arc justly entitled to tho undisturbed regulation of their local affairs, free from intervention by Congresa*or by any State, and snbject only, to the Constitution of tho United States; that on attaining the number of inhabitants equal to tho ratio of representation in tho lower houso of Congrcs3, such people have the right to organizo a State Government, and demand admission Into tho Federal Union; and that, in the organization of such State Government, the people, by the will of the majority, fairly expressed at the bnllot-box, have tho exclusive right to adopt nny Constitution which does not conflict with a repub lican form of government. “ 3. The Democracy of Minnesota reiterate, and fully endorse tho National Democratic platform adoptod by the National Democratic Convention at Cincinnati, in ]Bsp. and further deolaro that tho institution of slavery, under the Constitution of the United States, can only become a partlnoftt political question within the State or Territory where it is proposed to establish, retain, or abolish it; that the citizens of snob Stato qr Territory, respectively, have exclusive jurisdiction of the subject-matter within its own limits; and Umt, therefore, Congress lms no power to establish or protect slavory in, or to exclude slavery from, any of tho Territories of the United States. “•I.

The Gentleman’s Magnzino adds, that « society of printers, in Paris, assembled jn the hall of the Cordeliers, around a bust of Franklin, elevated on a pedestal, and wearing a civic crown—a' printing-press, <£c., being near—and while an apprentice was' pro nouncing an ’eulogy, tho compositors and others were ocoupicd in priuting and distributing copies to the numerous bodies of citizens who were pre sent. • • . While it is pleasant to sec that the memory of this great man was duly bonorod .at home, these, as it were spontaneous tributes of foreigners, who wore hot ns men indebted to. him, show, what a re verence was felt for tho talents of Benjamin. Franklin, printer. Coming back flow towards the main walk, wo find, perhaps fifty feet From the.gate, a little'west of south, the gravo of Thomas Laurence, who died iu April, 1754, aged 64 yoars. 'His name sounds familiar tong, for we have had occasion to speak of him several times be|ore. He was ono of the com mittee appointed to build tho State House. When Laurence’s second torm of office ns mayor of tbo city. expired, in 1750, he stated “ that as some mayors, in lien of an entertainment, had given a sura of money for some public use,' he was inclined to follow the example, and proposed to'‘give* the sum of ono hundred pounds for the uso of the Ae»- f demy in this city, which proposal was approved cf by agre/ft majority.” - This was one of the first' benefactions to the Academy, (now tho Übivorsity,)' which started in that-year. -Lanrencp was mayor for tho third time at the pcripdoChi3 death.

' • 1 • - Adjoining is the gravo of fiis father, Commodore Richard Dale, who was born in 1750, and <\ied Iho 24th of October, 1826. He went to soawhen twolvo years of age, and in 1770 became lieutenant of a Virginia cruiser, and afterwards (in Iho same year) was midshipman under Capt. Johu Barry, in the Lexington. In tho fall of 1770 this vessel was cap tured, but the following night the Americ'nns rose on their captors, and, overpowering the prise-crew, escaped to Baltimore. The next year ho was again taken prisoner, and making, after a long confine ment, nn attempt to escape, was soon recaptured, and, at tbo ond ofanother year's imprisonment, he procured, in snipe way which ho would never dis close, a suit of British uniform, and. making good his escapo this time, joined Paul .Tones, and was his first lieutenant in the conflict with the Scrapes. In 1731 he was again taken prisoner while lieute nant to Copt. Nieholson, on the Trumbull. Before lon<* lip was exchanged. From tho close of the war he was engaged in commerce, until reappoint* od to tho navy by Washington In 1794. After scry ing in the Mediterranean, ho finally to prlvnto life in 1802. He was eminent in later days as a sincere Christian and a ireful citizen, and aided in tho establishment, in’tluscity, of a Mariner's Churoh, (of which ho was the proposer.) by both his weans and his influence, attending its services for many years. Not far off lies Henry Harrison, who died, aged fifty-three. January 3, 1760. Ho became a Common Councilman in 1757, an alderman, in 1761, and a year Inter, was chosen Mayor, lie was a vestry man of Christ Church, and wc are indebted to him, it appears, for n plan ot tho tower and spire ”of that venoratod church, “ns agreed upon to bo erected for a ring of bells.” Christ Church steeple ,was described by Joseph Sansom, Esq., as'“the handsomest structure of tho kind that I ever saw, in any part of tho world, uniting-in tho peculiar forms of that species of architecture the most ele gant variety of form with the most chaste simpli city of construction.' ’ This is rather strong praise, but all must admit the work to reflect great credit on tho designer.

Boston, Aug. 23.—According to announcement, the great race Between the celebrated horses Prin cess and Flora Temple took placo to-day.at the Ri ding Park: The day, the horses, and the weather' could not have been more agreeable. A pleasant east wind cooled the: atmosphere, and prevented what would otherwise have been undoubtedly a scorching day. At two o’clock P. M. the doors of the Riding Pork were opened. Gilmore’s celebrated brass band commenced playing, and tho influx of the multitude began. The stream continued uninter rupted until long after the hour fixed for the an nouncement of the sport-four o’clock—when there - were.upwards of 20,000 .persons present, 2,000 of whom were ladies.

Time-bets'changed from last night,'and could be taken at less than 2.27 and 2.28. At the first word the nags got off for the first heat, Princess slightly.leading to the' first turn, where both broke, Princess badly, but Flora taking her foot in an instant, and leading by several lengths ; before the California mare got to her steady work again. Flora continued to lead through the first half mile, in 1.15}, Princess for behind; and so on through the seoond half, crossing the score, leav ing Princess almost a distance—-if there had been any distances—in the rear, and making tho heat in 2.33. Second Heat.— The first heat having produced no sensation among the crowd, except that of dis appointment, something more was expected from the second. Aftor three false starts they got off well together,'Flora lending lo the half in 1.14}, and all the way- round the second half, and cross ing the score in 2.26}. The little bay mare gave great satisfaction in this heat, and tho immense crowd expressed their delight by repeated cheen and plaudits, the ladies also waving their handker chiefs. Princess also had hor fkvorites-for her steady footing and gallant bearing. lief time in the second heat was The heat was not a con test, but nn exhibition of go-ahead, locomotive floetnoss on the part of Flora, ond a sad. stern chase for the Californmn. * Third IleatM- Both off at the word, Prineosw leading, which she kept to the first turn, Flora ap parently in a hobble, from which, however, she soon recovered, and sped after her antagonist, who had opened a considerable gap, At the quarter Flora lapped, and, after a brief but spirited con test. passed Princess, and led for the first half in 1.17, leaving Prineess struggling handsomely, butliard, several lengths iu the rear. The second half Flora, had all her own way, and led home easily, making the heat in 2.34.
