The Duke of Wellington held a levee at the Horse Guards, on the 6th Sept. Brussels papers state that the Prince of Orange was to go to the Camp at St. Omcra, where a hotel had been hired for him. There were many conjectures afloat, as to this journey, and by sonic it was supposed to be corinected with political objects. Other* think that he goes merely as the rep resentative of the King, his father, who has been invited by the Ring of France to be present at the reviews. The Duke of Kiethstadt, (the son of Na poleon,) according to Vienna paper*, had been indisposed, and was daily attended by phvsi 6iarriK The l?ondon Courier has on this bend, the following remarks, which appear Co us rather curious: " There arc some very speculative poli ticians, who would consider the death of this individual as an additional guarantee for the tranquility of France. We, ourselves, are not certainly of that numlier. The in fluence of the name of Napoleon no longer exists in that country; and the lapse of four teen years has so scattered, or destroyed the elements of which his power was composed, that could he himself re-appear among his former followers, he would hardly divide public ouriosity with the camelcopard and the Osage Indians." Don Miguel, it is said in Frankfort papers, is to go, about the middle of September, by the war of Paris, to Portugal. The Courier thinks it not impossible that he may take England in his route. rrom the London Courier, of Sept. 4.

But thi? is not the fact, and the Adams party in Uiie Mate know it b not. On the contrary,' it wae the ddamt party that made all tneir arcret arrangement* to secure the Legisla ture. They issued a private, a secret cir cular to their friend* hi every county hi the ?Ute, earnestly impressing upon them the iin|w>rtance to their party of having the J.eg isluturc friendly to the Administration. At a lute period via were enabled to expose their g*me by gettinjt .hold of one of their circulars. The Jackson party were uruuscd in this city, and the Adams party was signal ly defeated. In Frederick county the Ad ams men feit so confident of their majority that they oftenly brought out on Adame ticket. In' consequence of this a Jack*on ticket was brought out, and the Adams tickct was defeated there. In Allegheny county, two ticket* were formed, one Adam* the other Jatkeon, and the election had exclu sive reference to the Prcbldential question. The full Jackson ticket succeedrd by a largo majority. Let it be observed that wherever the question was raised we bent them. If Jarkson tickets had been formed, and the election made to turn in every county, upon the Presidential question, there is no sort of doubt that we should have had n very deoided majotlty in the House of Delegates for Jackson.

The disclosure of the all important fact*, Siven In the following article, from the Phila elphia Palladium, (of which we have long been in possession,) must arrest the attention and excite the astonishment of every honest and honorable man in this country. Ifthey are correctly Staled?-and, coming front the different and respectable sources they do, they arc entitled to be so considered?-we may dismiss front our consideration the chargcs of dishonor against M' . Clay, as of secondary moment t for they sink into Inslgni flcsnce, snd most be rt(itrded of little mo ment. when brought in comparison with the ati-oclous f.tou and circumstances thus urged home, Miid fastened, with the tenacity of the poisoned *hirt of Lyobas, on the baok of Mr. A<t?m\ Talk no more of Mr. Clay's cor rupt Imi gaining for the second ofRce in the government, for the public is now nut in pot?*sion of evidence, that can neither be evaded nor denied, that a direct overture, more infamous, dishonest, and disgraceful, hn? been tendered by one o| the candidates for the ehlsf magistracy himself! J'rim thr I'Hilatlrlhkut Palladium, Oct. 6. The Hon* Daniel Webster has at all times, been an ardent and uuiform Federalist, was strongly opposed to the election of Mr. Adams ss President, and on his arrival at Washington in the winter of JU24?25, as sumed a reserved and cautious demeanor, which left many in doubt as to lits real de sign. He was at one time in favor of Cat* lioun, >inr| when he was dropped, he was in favour <>i Crawford (and when it was doubt ful a? to liu success, he was left to choose between /Ydftms *?>d Jackson. Ilia vote in the house individually could nut affect the vote of his Htate, but nis personal influence in the houKC might be of much consequence. At thie crisis, Webster was wa'ted upon by Bailey, the sama who It *as said Interfered in the Vermont election for Senator, and sounded as to his determination. In the course of conversation between them, Web ster avowed his federal predilections, and ?aid he did not thl?k the Federalists if they gave their support to Adams, could calculate uuon any consideration la the distribution of the government oflftcos. Bailey having thus :<sc?rt?ined Webster's principal ejections to Adams, left him, and neat day he addressed a letter to Webster, stating that after a con versation with Mr. Adams, he was author ised to sav that Mr. Webster's doubts re garding tae fedewlhn were unfounded and, that of Mr. Adams was made President the claims of that party to eftce should have all Aitd tycry pnouii fwnklniltiii. Wtbvter met Bailey after th# receipt of this letter, and told him his letter was a etter was a very sitisfac m emM have been mere ssaas acquainted wkh the hand-writing oTltr. Adams, and If he maid examine hi* letter (Bailey's) to kin. be would mi parts of it ? lfr. -Bailey's band writing which were scratched out, end much stronger term* than thoae used by Bailey infer lined and to Mr. Adamt? own hand-writing. Webster oo referring to the letter dlscxnreiwd this to bethecaae, end became folly satisfied. He (Webster) after this, read the letter toa dis tinguished federal Member of Congress who after hearing it read, observed that if he bed no other objection to Mr. Adams that letter would farm pa insuperable one?when be found htm tampering wkh a party and seeking to obtain their support by promises of tjfli a course be needier expected nor would countenance. Webster showed the letter efterwarde to e member of Compete from New-York, whose vote It is believed caused that Bute to be for Adams?and again shewed it to it member from Mary* land. Webster may not have the courage to produce this letter, but that there was Huch a letter, there Is no doubt. Thus, while Clay was Intriguing wkh one party to secure Adams* election,'Adams himself was intriguing with thb other?and If the feder alists could by their influence have secured his election, John Sergeant was to have l>een Secretary of State. . Rut Clay brought the largest force Into the field, consummate rd the plot, and got tlie greatest honor, Sergeant was consoled by the Tacubaya Mission. ? The names of two gentlemen members of congress, are left with us as a warrant for the alwve statement. From thr Hot ton Daily AdvertUer. TO THE PUBLIC. I have seen in the Aew-York Evening /'oil of the 9th inst. a paragraph extracted from the Philadelphia Palladium of the 6th, alleging in expiti* terms, that in the winter of 1024-5, pending the Presidential election. I had conversations with Mr. Webster and Mr. Adams, on the consideration which the federal party would have in the distribution of the government offices, it Mr. A. should be made President; and that a letter was written liy ine to Mr. Webster on the sub ject, as the reault of a conversation with Mr. Adams, and on his authority. Every particle of these allegations is a gr?>** fabrication, utterly destitute of the shadow of truth. 1 never had a tittle of any such conversation with either Mr. A. or Mr. \V. nor did any le'.ter ever pass frora or through me, having the most remote resem blance to the one alleged. It is stated, that '* the names of two gen tlemen, member* of Congress, are left with us (thr Palladium) as a warrant for the above statement." It is not possible that this assertion Is true. It cannot be that a single member should be found, so profit (rate and bose, as to give his name* voucher or such unblushing falsehoods. Prom the date of the publication, three days before the Pennsylvania election, and from the conspi cuous use of the name of Mr. Sergeant* who was a candidate at that election, tne conclu sion is inevitable, that the paragraph is the fabrication of some unprincipled partisan, for the purpose of xiving a temporary.suc cess to his party. Comment on such profli gacy isu'nner.??*ary. JOHN BAILEY. Dorchester, Maw. Oct. 11, 1827. Remarkable ftrotf of the immortality of the Haul.?(iennatlius, a 'physician, a man of eminence in piety and charity, had, in his youth some doubts of the reality of another life, H? saw one night in a drwun, a young man of celestial figure, who bade him follow him. The apparition led him Into a magni ficent city, in which his ears were charmed by ii)elodlous music, which exceeded the most enchanting harmony he had aver beard. To the inquiry, from whence proceeded these ravishing sounds, hi^conductor answer ed, that they were the hymns of the blessed in Heaven, and disappeared. Gennadtas awoke, and the impression of thr dream was dissipated by the transactions of (he day. Thef<?fowlng night the young wan appeared, and asked whether lir recollectcd him? The melodious songs which I heard last night, answered Gennadhis, are now brought again to my memory. " Did you hear them,H said the apparition,* " dreaming, or awake?'' " I heard them in a drejwn." ??True," replied the young man. Mend our present conversation Is a dream; but where is your body while I am speaking to you?" " In my chamber.** "But know you not that vour eyes are shut, and that you cannot see#*' .? My eyes are Indeed shut.'* N How then can you see?" 0<mnadhis could make no answer. " In your dream, the eyes of your body are closed and useless; but you have others with which you see me, Thus, after death, although the eyes of your flesh are deprived of sense and motion, yon will remain alive and capable of sight and motion by your spiritual part* Cease, then, to en tertain a doubt of another life after deathi" By this oocurrencc, (iennadius alarms, he became a sincere believer in the cfoctrine of i a future state.
