Louisville dJvertistr. We discover that Ihe editor of the 'pspar zjid twinevPub lie Advertiser,' printed 'by Authority1 at Louisville, dervias that our very creditable delegation in the next congress "pledges themselves to support the candidate for ihe Presidency, whom the majority of their constituent! might support." I3e ays "they went into the canvaia avowing their preference for Van Buren, and were triumphantly elected becaust of that preference!" Now we admit that no falsehood, however-base, calculated te ad Vance the views of a corrupt assemblage cf office holders, appointed to office, and rewarded with "contract" io aid in impoling Van Burerx upon the country, should aurprise us in the "Public Advertiser." Yet we cannot refraia from expressing a momentary wonder at the dating hardi hood of that press in relation to the

While Major Parry was at the head 4i this department every eiTart was made to induce the public to believe that it was m the most nourishing and prosperous condition. The ipckless extravagance aud enormous corruptions of tha department were carefully concealed by those in power from (he public gaze, and when they were brought forth and made known, the papers in the pay f the party, denied) their existence, and aspersed the character of Ihe public sentinels who had dragged them to Ihe light. The truth, how ever, cauie out, r.?id the party found is necessary to abandon their position. The Kev O H Brow n was permitted to retire, and Maj Parry followed. Amos Kendali was then pia-ed at the head of the department, and immediately the pensionet' presses from Maine to Geo-rgia, nnd fieri;. New York to Missouri, gave a flourish of trumpets, and told lis what reform ancV retieochment he would accomplish. Time after, time the new head issued hisbulletins, displaying the ground work of his intended reforms, &c. &c. Now we have no doubt of the capacity of M r. Kendal to render the department much more efficient, energetic, anL economical than it would have been under the administration of Maj Parry. Hut its increased efficiency, eneigy am!, economy, will be a cover under which il. will ba made a ten fold more patent engino, of corruption. It was necessary tha. something should be done to pass hiiu (through ihe Senate, attract the public attention, and give him a temporary fame, j This they think they have fully accornJ plisbed by the repeated bulletins from tha Postmaster Geneial, and the llouris which Ihe Van Puren press have mada about bis promised reform.

Let it be ra aiembeied that the transaction here stated took place on the eve of the Congressional elecdon in that district, and tlwi Atioh Lune, the candidate of lhe PAJITY is very hard pressed to secure bis reelection.
