To Correspondents.
An apo'ogy is due several friends for inattention to their favors. Several communications have been found which were mislaid.
and several have not been found owing to
the confusion which has reigned among our
papers lately, from want of an editorial room, 1 &c. Fate. Your lines dated Dec. 23, have some faufts which render the verses inadmissable. Try again, as we know you can do better. " A Sentimental Incident, " by Z, is well written, but it lacks point, which is the great thing in any sketch. We hope the writer will favor us with other productions, for we know the person who wrote ila S3ntimental Incident," can write a much better thing.
U. S. Senate. In the Senate, on the 16th inst., Mr. Seward presented a petition of two hundred and
twenty-five citizens of New York, praying for
the abolition of slavery and the slave trade in
the District of Columbia, and moved its refer
ence to the Committee on the District of
Columbia. On motion of Mr. Berrien, and after an explanation of the practice of the Senate from
Mr. King, the question of reception was laid
on the table 32 to 18. . i
Several private memorials were presen
ted.
Mr. Benton introduced hi3 bill proposing to the State of Texas the reduction of her boundaries, the ression of her extreme territories, and the relinquishment of her claims upon the United States. Mr. Benton explained the
bill, and it was referred to the Committee on
the Judiciary.
Mr. Foote introduced his bill, heretofore

The Wharf. Yesterday morning the wharf presented a
scene of business and life, which it has not
often been our pleasuse to witness. Severai
Wabash steamers were in port, two Green river packets, a Louisville and Evansville
packet, and two of the largest Mississippi
river steamers all busily engaged the
wharf crowded, with barrels, sacks, chicken cosps, &c, and throngs of people, citizens and strangers, perambulating the front street The mammoth Uncle Sam and Sultana, took in large freights at this point. It is to be regretted, that when 60 large an amount of business is being transacted at our wharf, it should present so muddy an appearance as it does. For a long time it has been almost utterly unnavigable to pedestrians, bad for shippers, and presenting all the disagreeable features a very muddy wharf can to business men. Whether it will ever get " beaten down," is a question which should not be left to the next age for settlement. The evil should be remedied. The same maybe said of our streets.
German Newspapers. A German Whig paper has been started at Washington City, called the Spectator. This is the first German paper, we believe, ever published at the seat of Government. When it is recollected that the German population in the United States is estimated at abr ut four millions, and that they are a read
ing and thinking people, the importance of
publishing a German paper at Washington
may be appreciated. The Editor, Mr,
Schmidt, 6ays. that from the fact that the lib
eral or popular party in Germany is known by the name of ''Democrats," the immigrants
generally range themselves under the banner of the party ia this country, which bears the same appellation; the name acts upon them like a charm, and induces them without
further reflect'on, to decide their future polit
ical course. Several hundred German Dem
ocratic papers have been started ; and to the
influence of the Democratic name, issoperad
ded the all-powerful influence of the press, to perpetuate the false impressions under which
the Germans form their political connexions,
They have only one-sided facts and state
ments before them, and cannot arrive at correct conclusions. Let the truth be properly
spread before them, and the Germans wi!
see which party most favors their country men, and most faithfully labors for their in
terests. They hare had a specimen in Evans
ville lately of the extent of Democracy's lov
for them. This should at least lead them to
an examination of both parties.

was, as your readers know, tue late JNavy Airent.in New York, and when his defalcation
was first announced. Locolbco-like, fie came out with a flaming card, that he was ready to pay over when his accounts were finally adjusted. Tins has been done more expeditiously than he anticipated or desired from a
lecision made at this term by the foupreme
Court of the United States in a case ot a late
Puiser in the Navy, where the same princi
ple was contended for as set up by Vv etmore.
It will be remembered that, over and above
his commissions as fixed by law, he claimed ex'ra commissions for disbursing a large
imount of irovernment funds during the war
with Mexico, which he insisetd was no part
of his oliicial duty as Navy Agent To se
cure a decision of the courts upon this ques
tion, was his excuse for holding on to nearly
two hundred thousand dollars of the public
money, lnthecaseot the Purser ot the ia
vy referred to. who had claimed commissions
under precisely the same circumstances tne
Supreme Gourt of the United States have
ueculed that such commissions are an illega
and unwarrantable charge on the part of the
Dishnrsinir Agents ot the class I have named
and that they were properly rejected by the
accounting oificers of the Government. This leaves Mr. Wetmore without a pretext of an excuse for longer retaining this $161,600; and
as he avowed a willingness in his card to de
posit the amount as soon as this question o
commissions was settled, the opportunity is now afforded him to redeem his pledge. But
will he do so? This can bebest ascertained
from the action the government has taken i
the rnaMer. They have so little faith in hi
public avowal of willingness to disgorge this
large sum ol money, wronglully, and ty tlu terms of the 10th section of the Sub Treas
ury act. feloniously with tld from the United
riiates. that they nave instituted two sun

are food, and the other against him individ
ually, for the' remainder of his defalcation, a
tcr deducting the tiice of the bond, amountin to the snu" little sum of one hundred. an
thirty-one thousand six hundred dollars.
For this last sum the government expect to
realise hut little. If, however, Mr. Wetmore
pays up as he promised m his card, the treas
ury will be unexpectedly relieved to just tna amount.

All thissoui'ded very fine at the Capitol and on Pennsylvania Avenue, and Brown No. 2. expected to be lionized, the remainder of the session as a victim of Whig persecution. The gentlemen who had been designated to make this exposure of Whig scandal, reachthe Auditor's office swelling with Senatorial

Let no one suppose, however, that the sore of corruption which was festering for years under Locofoco treatment has been even proved. So far from it, the scab has scarcely been raised, and if Congress will do their duty by permitting thorough investigations to be made, the proof is in the departments at Washington to show that under Locofoco Administration, the government lias been swindled out of millions of money. In the very class of case. that Brown No. 2, and Nag'e have been detected in figuring in, the half has not been brought to light that can be; nor are they the onlj ones thai have been eathering their nests by plucking Uncle Sam.

The Murder ok Dr. Gkorge Parkmn Probability of another Murder. We copy the following from the Boston Mail of the 11th for what it is worth. It is like a great many other things said in the case, but vague rumor and uncertain conjecture perhaps: The Grand Jury of the county of Suffolk commenced yester lav the investier ttion of the
case of Dr. John W. Webster charged with
the murder of Dr. George Parkman. Forty-
two witnesses have been summoned.
It is said that a cabman will testify that he
on the night ot the alleged murder, took Dr
Webster from his house in Cambridge, about ten o'clock in the evening, brought him into
the city and left him at the Medical College,
where he remained all night, and that he took
him back in his cab in the morning to Cam
bridge. A new feature has been added to the case
by the knowledge of a singular disappearance
that took place on the niejht previous to the
murder, in thi street. It is a fact which hai thus far been kept studiously secret by the authorities. It appears that a young woman about 22 years of atre. named Catherine
Sproule. leftthe residenceof Mr. Caleb Howe
No. 20 South Grove street, on the evening of
the 2M of November last, and has not been seen or heard of since. She was rather a good looking young woman, of Irish parent
age, and raised in the family ol Mr. Howe as a domestic.
The circumstances of her disappearance at this laial period, taken in connection with the finding of .the dead body of an infant near
tne AJedical College, a lew days after the murder of Dr. Parkman. buried in the dirt on wh it is called the New Jail Lands, hasg-ven rise to terrible suspicions and created another mystery, irhich it is to be hoped the new Grand Jury will unravel.
jTLetter writers from Washington say that Daniel Webster will address the Senate in opposition to Gen. Cass's resolution.
