THE (RAVE OF THE "COON.
A few days ago on ash-pole raising u
Cherry Valley, in Otsego county, in this
compensate for the smallness of the nut_
they are able to get up, it wits determined by the Whigg
of the place to get at least a famously tall treer.-fot
which a deep and spacious hole was requisite. This
was dug out the afternoon before, at no small ex
pemliture of "Americah industry." A well-hnownr
Democratic wag, driving along the road, was RITMO'
forced by the urgent invitations of his Whig friends,
fto stay over all night. In tho course of that evening '
The following conversation took place in a kvrot of '
young Democrats assembled on the stoop of the Wei •
; (the Democratic one of tho place,) immediately in
frost of which, tauntingly, the Whigs were to' raise ,
their pole..
"Isn't it a shame that somebody should have left,
such a hole as that jast cia the road?"
"Why, yes—who knows how maw horse, may
drive into it and break their legs, and perhaps their
riders' necks, before morning l'
"That hole ought not to be left an. Whoever dug
it ought not to have gone away without filling it in
over night. This is really tOabsd. I thick h would
be a public service if any body would do it for therm"
"Why, certainlybus it's a pity it should have been
dug out so deep end wide fps nothing.--It wouidjust
do to bury a dead coon Use got home. It's only five
miles off; and I can be back with the corpse in on
-time."
The next meriting the bole had to he dug out afresh,
theearth having been filled and stomped In
pretty herd
feet
and tight by some unknown bawls mat in the
course of the night. The blank visages of the new
'resurrectionists,' when they drew forth what they
found at the bottom, may be "better imagined than
described." The wag shove mentioned happened to
be standing by, reflecting bow true ft was that we've.
ry sense the I.l 7 higs themselves have dug the Comes
grave! It is unnecessary to any bow match his feel
ings were hurt when those whose pressing iovitatkin
had alone induced him to stay, turned upon him and
swore that this was all his work. They will probably
never again invite bim to an ash-pole raising, though
we are not told whether they so far carried out 'Whig
principles as to tell him tit.-."Go home, —youo=-11

THE TWO CLAYS
Cassius AT. Clay.—l do not mean to say that Mr.
Clay is an emancipationist, but I believe his feelings
are with the cause. I know that those most immedi
ately within his influence approximate to myself in
sentiment upon thesubject of slavety,
Henry Clay.—So far as he ventures to interpret
my feelings, he has entirely misconceived them. I
believe him to be equally mistaken as to those in the
circle of my personal friends and neighbors generally.
Cassius M. Clay.--Mr. Clay and his friends have
taken high and holy ground. Slavery or liberty is
to be determined in some sort this coming election--
nut the liberty of the black only, but of the white.
Henry Clay. , —So far from the success uf the whit

procession of about 25 blacks of both sexes arrived
in Brooklyn on Friday from this city, as we learn from
the Advertiser. The men were decorated with white
laprons, trimmed with pink, stars, &c., and whits
'scarfs, sash, &c. The women, with white aprons,
trimmed with pink. scarfs, rosettes, &c. The pro.
cession marched to N 0.202 Prospect street, preceded
by a rather good looking colored mon, High Priest,
Grand Signieur." &c. On arriving at the place, they
drew up , in a kind of military order in the middle of
the street. performed several evolutions, and then
took the sidewalk, opposite a house, the windows of
which were illuminated. The basement was to be
dedicated as a place of meeting for the ancient order
of Romans in that city. Every thing seemed ready.
The Grand High Priest inquired; Grand High Secs

' colored man stepped from the ranks and said, "De

and next singin i , and den aback agen." ThPsinging
was got through with and the prayer ended, with the
'•Most noble grand Master High Priest, Grand Sig

rapidity that was a caution to stenographers. He said
ho arrived at the high and distinguished station beheld
after devoting 20 years to the good of thee/trier. He
bad been installed in Jerusalem, consecrated in Con
stantinople, and created Grand High Signieur in Rome.
The ceremonies in the room were forming a circle
round the H igh Priest, stamping and keeping time to
a song. The walls and ceiling of the room were cov.

1 r Prosperity of Philadelphio.—The North Amer
ican states the following interesting and intoner*.
facts respecting the growth of our city. In the
proper the number of new buildings erected this year,
or now in the progress. is 400. in the Northern Liber
ties. 118, in Spring Garden, 459, in Kensington, 143.
Total-1120. We bavit not included in the above re
tarnany new buildings in Southwark, Moyamensing,or
West Philadelphia, %%Inch will increase the number a
bout 200, making n total of upwards of 1300 build
ings, of which about thirty are frame, and all the rest
of brick, stone, or marble, and of the most substantial
character. We therefore put it upon record, that du
ring theyear 1844 upwards of fourteen hundred new
buildings have been or will he erected in the city and
suburbs of Philadelphia. Houses are scarce and are
readily taken at advanced rates. Stares are scarce,
and in some sections aro not to be obtained at present.
In short there is more doing in the way of improve.
metes, than during any former year. A larger number
of Factories and workshops have also been erected
than during any former similar period since the city
was first settled. The greatest number of buildings
ever erected in New York in one yea r, was in 1836,311
ter the great fire, when 1820 buildings were put up.—
In 1843 the number was 1273. So much fur the de
cay. of Philadelphia.
Clay cad Randolph.—Mr. Clay, during the etrut se
of a discussion in the Imuse of representatives, bah
taken occasion to say that, "for all his professions
democracy, every one knew that the 'gentleman front
Virginia' was personally and practical , l
el y the veriest
ri
astocrat : the House:" to which Randolph , pointing that terrible fingerof his at the object of
sarcasm, replied, "If a man's principles Greta be at
all determined by the company he keeps, dkaa timely
does the charge of aristocracy apply far more forciply
to the gentleman from Kent.;cky than myself. Sir, be
passe s his nights in the company of kings, paces
and kacroes!"—N Y Xeres.
