.1 saw Saunders a second time at the rooms of the count/ commissioners. 1 asked him if he knew an/ of the executive committee of New York. He said he had seen them all; that ho was very welt acquainted with Noah Cook, who aided him in changing clothes of the persons who voted. Saunders said he bad operated in the eighth, seventeenth, fifth, second, sixth, sad fourth wards, in the city of New York; that he could not meet at seven, as agreed upon, but that Thornton would furnish a list for both, of them. Saunders resides at 134 North second street. At 2 o’clock 1 saw Bela Badger; ascertained from him that he had written to Glent-

who would be best muted as leaders, and such as would come on immediate!/ and register themselves. He promised to come on with (hem and register himself with them, if 1 requested it. Half past 4, n, in. I called on George Riston at his house in Spruce street, above Thirteenth street, and found him on the sofa, lame; he accosted me with all the familiarilj of an old acquaintance. I told him the object of my visit; he at once said I might depend upon him for aid. 1 asked him if 1 might have a meeting of friends at his house; lie said yes; I asked him if Young, Miller, and Swift met at his house in November; he said they did, and he cashed a check of C. GUI for G lent worth, which check was paid on Monday morning: he said Swill understood what the money was paid to to the officers for. In the course of the conversation he told me lie meant to carry the cliy of Baltimore at the election for mayor; he at the same time handed me a Idler from Jeffers, high constable of Baltimore, asking him, (Riston,) to send on five hundred men by .Monday week, to enable the wtugs to carry the city. The letter was dated 9th October. The rca eon Jeffers gave in his letter for this requisition of men was, that unless the whige got possession of the city this fall, the tocos would, under the new census, so divide the city into wards, as forever would prevent the whigs getting into power. After taking wine and water with him, we separated, and on my return to my hotel, I immediately wrote to tho Hon. Sol. llillcn, Jr, under cover to Mr. Yansant, postmaster at Baltimore, in relation to said letter. While with Riston, I proposed to call on Gill, but Riston said tho fewer who managed the affair the better, ami ihatl bad belter communicate with Gilt through him. He did not require any introduction, nor did he ask ray name. I returned to the city of New York on Wednesday, the 14tb October. On the loth 1 received through the post office the letter from Robert Looney, which is hereunto annexed. On the 13th I received a. letter through the post office from James Young, which is hereunto annexed. On the 17th 1 received another letter, from Young, through the post office, hereunto annexed. On the loth of October, tho original receipts for money paid by Glentworth to tho several persons living in Philadelphia, connected with this affair, which wore then in my possession, together with Glemworth’s statement to me, and also all ilie testimony col lac tod by mein Philadelphia, herein alluded to, was, by the consent of Glentworth, submitted for examination to Isaac L. Varian, mayor, Stephen Allen, Benjamin F. Ifutler, and John W. Edmonds, esqura,, which original receipts I have since returned to Glenlworlh, in the presence of John W. Edmonds, esq., and other gentlemen. The deponent farther said that James Young was not induced to visit this city by.him at the time ol his arrest, or for the purpdecofheing ar r rested, but that (he deponent hath been informed, and.bdicvcs, that his visit here was' solely upon business connected with his official station. .

These work* Will be pnblitbej by us during Ibe approaching session of Congress. They base bad such a wide circulation to the United Slates, and their usefulness and cheapness are so universal!) acknowledged, that we deem it unnecessary to ghre a detailed account of what the future numbers will contain. Suffice U to say that they will be invaluable to all who feel an interest in the proceedings of Congress. No other publication gives them so full, nor half so cheap* It U» indeed* the cheapest publication ia the United Sutes— perhaps in the world. Our position at the seat of Government enables ns to print them at so low a rate. \Ve ate compelled to publish the proceedings of Congress in detail, forourdaily paper. This done, it requires, comparatively, but a; small additional expense to change them to Ibe forms of the Congressional Globe and Appendix. If it were nut for these circumstances, we could not publish them for four times the sum charged. In some parts of the United States, the white paper, upon which these works.are printed, would sell for as much as we charge foe the publications.

We have heard a great deal about Rohan Potatoes, and have considered some things said about them to appear bordering a little on the marvellous. Our doubts have been, removed. We have seen them. Mr. William Mullen* , of Riley township in this county, has raised from one peck of seed, twenty bushels, of largo size; and a single potatoo yielded half a bushel, or 39 lbs,, as weighed when dug. A large portion of the yield weighed each I to 11 lbs. These potatoes are a fine article, as we know by experience, and we call ourself a judge. We consider them equal to the best Chenango, and superior to any blue note ever cooked. These potatoes averaged from.Id to 34 eyes each; and an eye will produce a good hill. They are very smooth and good, shaped, and seldom, if ever, ‘Tatse-hcarlcd." In. New York and other Eastern States, wo understand they are fast taking tho place of all-others, on account of their, superiority ol yield as well os their other good qualities. Mr. M. obtained Ins seed from New Orleans where he paid at the rate of £4 per bushel.
