the announcing of the names of candididates, and published, appears to have been forgotten by many. We again state that in all such cases now and hereafter, an advance payment of three dollars will be required. The New York Sunday Mercury says that Broadway is kept perfectly clean the long dresses of the ladies sweeping away all the dust. Mr. Ewing in his Circular, seems to think that the whig meeting here was composed of his personal enemies. We think not. Of the 70 to 100 persons who were present, there were some three or four of his personal enemies the balance were his old personal and political friends, who. we presume, have voted for him on all occasions when a candidate They had not, nor have, any thing personal against him. but thought it too much for any one, even Mr. Ewing, to ask the people to elect him to the Senate for one year, when the Senatorial term is three years; and he, too, avowing that he intends to be a candidate for Congress next year. They thought his intention of using the Senatorial office as a stepping stone to Congress was so palpable, that the people should not, nor would not tolerate it. Offices in their opinion, were creaied for the benefit of the people, and not the office seekers, and it would be setting a bad example to send a man to the Legislature merely to arrange his Congressional districts for next year. Mr. Bulwer has written a new novel entitled Zanoni the London price of which is $7 50, In 75 town in Maine 150 grogshops have been closed during the past year, by the untiring efforts of the Washingtonian.

We commend the facts to the notice of our very vigilant, upright and patriotic Mayor District Attorney and Common Council, as wtll as our Criminal courts and Grand Juries. We should like to have the opinion of the Journal of Commerce and the neutral Sun thereupon, but it is probably too much to expect it.

Deponent asked Truman if he had been let out of prison to vote to which Truman replied that 'many others (meaninn' prisoners) were let out for the purpose of voting." JAMES A. BROWN.

From the Richmond Wing. f Paste and Corruption of the Van lluren Administration. We put on record Mr. Merri wether's report on the waste and corruption practised in Florida, ns a last! ig monument of the protligp.ua prodigality of Van Buren's Administration. We invite to it t!;3 serious consideration oi iho couutcy. It is compiled from official sources, and every statement it contains may be implicitly relied on. This, however, is only a single department. The same waste pervaded evety branch of the public service. Wherever the Government made a contract, it was tleeced w hether for the hire of steamboats, the removal of Indians, the purchase of wood, or coal, or lime. It would seem

that the Administration considered itself trusted with the public money, only to feed its needy favorites and partisans. Certain it is, that such wns the only use made of the public money; and for the millions squandered bv Van Buren, nothing can be shown, except defaulting officers and swindung accounts. As germain to this matter, we subjoin a letter to a valued correspondent: "irashingfon. Aprils, 18 !2. "Believing, as I do, that the most effectual mode of checking the extravagances of the Government 19 to expose tliem to the public gaze. I shall, whenever I see any flagrant abuses, take the liberty of bringing them to the attention of the people. Acting upon this principle, I beg leave, through your paper, to submit to the public judgement two instances of expenditure in the War Department, which recently came to my knowledge. I give you literal extracts from the official archives of the country. I do not pretend to vouch for the correctness of the reeor. s. for the day is past when even official reports can be implicitly relied on. All 1 will he resnorihie tor is, that eop-es are correctly taken from the official volume.

At a highly respectable meeting recently convened in Boston, an association was formed to encourage tho wear and use of domestic products alone. The co operation of the citizens generally of the United States, was invited. This is indeed a noble spirit. It was most fitting that such an asso ciation should originate within the precincts of tho cradle of liberty. Our fore fathers struggled to free themselves from British influence, and the time has arrived when wo must do tho same. Our grandsires were, for a long time, not only content with domestic fabrics, intelligent as thev must have been in their dav. but they glGfjod in the U?0 of them, considering them ro be badges of distinction. A suit of clothes of domestic manufacture, ve regard as an American uniform of which any man may justly be proud. Associations of the character referred to, must be eminently calculated to advance the cause of Protection to our Industry. The appeal cannot, will not, be made in vain. To those who are completely American in their feelings. Is the industry of our country to be protected, or is it not? This is a plain question. Itc-i be easily answered. Did our Locofoco brethren all possess the trickery and duplicity of Martin Van Buren himself, we would defy them to dodge it. Corrupt and intritruing partisans may act as they choose.

The ashes of Henry Clay will give new powers to the sackcloth of those who slander him. But they are not yet gathered. He is alive and moving. And the flourish of the Madisonian is tho whistling of fear to Cili back a little confidence. But, perhaps, the ashes of his political existence is meant, because Mr. Clay has left the Senate. From these Senatorial ashes shall spring a President, to restore the Government to its former action, and realize the hopes blighted in the death of Harrison. U. S. Gazette. Strange.

There is a report in this place, ami it is but fo taie, that the branch of the Union Bank of Louisiana, at Tltibodeauxville, was robbed on Wednesday nihl of about Js40.0G'J 1 The particulars, as 1 have obtained them from gentlemen h know them, are these. The bank yas 3 frame building and was raised by means of a brick wall, or under pir.:;i"g, about four feet above the ground. Through this wall the thief first made his way He then cut through the floor of ihe bank, directly under the vault, into which he escended. The money was not locked up in any case or box, but lay open in the vault, and was. therefore, easily discovered by the robber. 1M .
