Bimpson gets the appolntment nnd uses his offefal position to ad- vance hls own canaldacy for the Seoate,—so tiat Mr Ingalls, instead of making oue fdend, us most incn would hava done, really made 8 hitter enemy, and gave a rival an instru- ment to use agalnst his benefactor, “Ihe Leav. eoworth dclegation arc fighting Ingalls hecarse he'did not pass a bill providing for the crectlon of 3 Custom-House In this city.
