Iforr.—We understand that on Monday the Unart-quashed the indictment that some of the smart rarallottlest whig leaders managed %rake up against Col.

The reason be assigned was, that if his whig kiwi& were to give him their votes, Mr Sanford, the demo cratic, candidate would probably he elected. This is a withdrawal therefore in favor of the Na tive American eandidete. We understand, however. that some of the whig papers will still keep his name in their columns as a candidate, in the hope of pre venting such of the whip as are disgusted by this movement toward a coalition with the Nativists, from voting for the democratic candidate, ar declining to vote at all." The Post, in some comments upon this alliance save—The withdrawal of Mr Ketchum is a von fession of weakness on the part of the whip. The rest of the whig candidates, if they remain on the hoard, will be swept down by the democratic ball that wiU roll on Tuesday. The New York lieraldbas the following 'among oth er remarks, upon the subject: " This is the first movement of the Whigs towards utter dissolution.

The Cave Haase has been thronged with visitors during the summer and large numbers have been 'tom , polled to sleep on matresses through the dining hall and parlous. Th. house will be enlarged during the winter, so es to accommodate at least two hundred persons more than can be accommodated now: A ball room one hunched feet long end a dining room I 'of the mime length are to be completed - bythe first 4i May. The crowd is not so great here now as it Was a few weeks ago, but still there are guests here from 1 New York and Philadelphia on the North to New i Orleans and Mobilo ohtbe "Muth. ' - The parties which dater the Cave - usually number front five'to fifty, and they walk from tee to twenty. I five miles per day. The mouth of the Cava is about I one hundred yards from the ,Cave_ House. At the mouth of the Cave we descended - about twenty fret over stone steps and then walked on horitantelly fur about one hundred and fifty yards to the place called the Roteedo. Ee/414:eS walked Titikilli Idata our-, hands procedeil by our guide. At the linumda we halted for a few momenta, and our guide illuminated the place with a Bengal light. There are large vats here, used in our last war in making saltpetre. The ' Cave here breaches of Sato two eveques.: We pro ceeded on in the main avenue to the Church; the main avenue ie about seventy feet wide; the Church is in the side of the avenue extending into the wall about 150 feet. The gallery is exceedingly natural. Sermons have been preached in this Church—' ea tem ple made without hands." As we passed on beyond the Church warmer the prints-of the fest of. the oxen ' and of the cart-whiels made there more than thirty 1 years ago. After walking nearly a mile we came to the Gothic Avenue. This leads ahem the main avenue at the right. We ascended a flight of steps about twenty feet and then walked on about two hundred yards when we came to the Registry Room. Thousands of names have there been registered on the ceiling over head. We passedon in this avenue till we came to Hercules' pillar. This is an immense eolorrin standing about midway between the walls of this Avenue. It was evi dently formed by water dropping from the ceiling. It must be at least fifteep feet in circumference. Stalag mite Hall is a hundred yards beyond in the same ave nue. Here are some ten of fifteen similar columns to the one above mentioned, differing only in size. The next thing of importance we pissed was Bonaptu-te'r breast-work. A natural breastwork of rocks extend ing at the side of the cave for twenty yards. Onetime. tined yards from the breast work is ..the old Arm Chair." This is a very large wherin, extending from the ceiling-to tbo floor, hiving to its Mere well-formed arm chair. The next object we noticed was ell ele, phones head. The resemblance was exceedingly per fect. A few yards farther you come to the Lover's Leap. This is a precipice at %beside of the arenas, so deep that bat few levers would.date to leap there. oven if, so daring, they could obtain the object of their affections. Directly above the Lover's Leap on the ceiling is an accurate representation of an Indian in the act of flying. We now descended through a ear- row crevice called the Elbow Crevice leading to anotle er and another apartment of this immense cave. Af ter passing through Elbow Crevice we carne to *map I nificont dome called Napoleo n 'l Dome. As it will be impossible to describe one half of what I have seen, in this letter, I will notattempt to give any description of this dome. Near Napoleon's Dome is a large din ing able about thirty feet by ten. It is one solid stone about four feet high. It is called Gatewood's Dining Table. A little distance farther on we found an im mense pile of cinders like those thrown from a black. smith's furnace. We then proceeded on about three hundred yards to the end of the avenue. We then re traced our steps returning to the main avenue, having seen enough already to compensate me for traveling from your city to this place. Bat as yet I had seen but few of the wonders tifthis subterranean abode. We then proceeded on in the main avenue until we came to the Giant's Coffin. This is a large stone in 1 the shape of a coffin, its height is about five feet and its length about eighteen feet. Directly over the cof fin is a large pautber on the wall. We then passed around the coffin end entered the Deserted Chamber. In the main avenue the ceiling is at least sixty feet high at the entrance of the deserted chamber, but the ceiling of the deserted chamber is not more than four feet high. We passed oetbrough this chamber about ten yards,_ and we came to a large dome called the Wooden Bowl, on account of a wooden bowl being ' found there when it was first discovered. At one side of the wooden bowl are the Steeps of Time. This is a narrow pass down about twenty feet, over natural stone steps. The peerage is narrow and dif ficult to pass. After descending the steeps of time we camera a beautiful spring of setters called Riede archon's Spring. Wi thee passed on through the Arcked Way by the Lady's Saddle Pit, which pit is about eight feet deep; then on to Minerva's Dome, once the Labyrinth, to Louisa's and Govan's. Dome. We thee passed on by the Bottomless Pit into Penile° Avenue, and by the Wild Dome, over the Great Cros sings. We then came tea pulpit of a stalagmite with a book lying upon the pulpit. This is all the work of nature without art. It has received the name of the Devil's pulpit . We then passed th rough Pino`Apple Arch, to Gelieo Grotto. All this we mos and passed the first day. We returned to the cave house about six in the evening. • . The next morning we started at about 8 o'clock, and went on through the main Care to the Deserted Cham ber, and entered an avenue called the Humble Shoot. Fora distance of Rhein owl hundred yards, wo passed through an avenue where the ceiling is so low that we were obliged to stoop U =web as possible. We then came to the Winding Way, a narrow sepentine pas sage, throeglywhich one person could pest at a time. This extends about fiftyyards. -At the mid °fibs Win ding Way we came to a large chianti., celled' the ''Great Relief. We then pass through River Hall. over the Dead Sea. along a deep -cascade. - We then pas sed onto the River Styx, suer which there is a natural bridge. Grossingskis bridge, we soon found our-elves at the shore of the River Lethe. We there went on • hoard a boat, and were rowed by our guide about thir ty yards across the river. I drank Mite waters.

Only two of our company hail courage to ascend. We made our way up to aprecipice almost perpendicular for about eighty feet; then crawled throogb a narrow opening between two matedie stories; then passed on about ten yards horizontally, and came to a row of stalactite columns, through which we made our way and found ourselves standing at the mouth of the. Sepulchre. here the cave is about sixteen feet wide. In the centre, between the walls. was a grave about six feet long and eighteen feet wide, and about eight feet deep. The soil was apparently thrown upon the two sides, and also at each end in equal quantities. Though it has 'the ap pearance of soil, it is a solid stone. I should consider myself well paid to come from New York to this place' Ito see this one wonder of the ten thousand wondersof this Cave. Ahhoegh the ascent to the Holy Sepulchre I is so exceedingly difficult, yet several ladies have ven tured to ascend there. Althoughl have been very industrious for four days, • yet I haves= little adds sUbterraneen world. There I are 266 avenues,47 large domes. some of them mere than four hundrd feet high. The number of ladies who visit this Cave exceed the number of gentlemen, ' and many of them will walk twenty miles in the Cave and thee dance all tiseeeenhig. I have no doubt' but that a great part of the traveling community at the North will visit this place during next season. It will be more attractive thee over before, on account of the great improvement, Dr. Croghan, theenorprieingpro- ' prieuir, is now making.

The Laic kfr...Dann..-7Mr. iValsh,the Paris cor- ' , respondent of the National tntelligencurialfuding to the deathef Nathan Dunn, Esq., says: "The day before yesterday we received advices of the death of Nathan Dunn, Eq., of Philndelphia, pro.. prietor of tho incomparable Chinese Museum, in Lon don. He ties on.o tour...along the Rhino to Switzer- land. ' At Priboutehe was seized with bilious fever.l but partially restored by medical aid; and in a few 1 days he proceeded thence to Vevey, Canton de Vaud, where he experieneed a fatnirelapso. He was attend-1 ed in his last moments by nn able physician and a pious English Chaplain. I immediately inserted al short obituary tribute in Galignani's Messenger.—Mr. 1 Dunn left Philadelphia for. London with a rich harvest of public esteem and private regard : he won the kindest respect of the goodiiid.the great in the Brit ish capital. My frequent personal intercense with him, in 1842 and 18113. strengthened the high opinion which a familiar acquaintance in Philadelphia left of his excellent qualities of head and heart.

Thomas Wilson Doer.—The father and mother of Governor Dom have petitiarted tbe General Assem bly of Rhode island for the *edemas of their son. On Tuesday the petition was presented, and Judge Branch moved that it be referred to a select committee, who should make a special report upon it. This seas re sist3d by the anti-sntfrage party. On Wednesday, as we 'learn •by a slip from the Providence Herald, this petition, and also another for the same object, signed by the Rev Martin Cheeny and four thousand others were referred to the Con victs. Committee, by a vote of 25 to IS. The reason given for this was that Dore was a convict and should be treated like other convicts, and that the sole object of those who pretended to- be. his .friends- was, not his liberation, but agitation ana excitement Pennagvensian.
