We are induced to make this piain state- ment of tacts by the appearance of the follow- ing paragraphs, in a recent letter tothe New York Tums, trom Kossuth’s impudent pen “Mr. Sanders thinks of going home oa the ist cf November.

Why K. announces - by authority” the intentions of Mr. Sanders, as though they are of a8 much importance to the futere cf the world, a6 an ukase of Nicholas, or a decree of Louis Napvieon, proglaiming the end of the Hustern war, would be! Judge Douglas must bein a bad way, poor fellow, to be thus un- ceremoniously deserted by Mr. Sanders. Now, in sober earnest, it strikes us that if Mr. S. had thus publicly washed his hands of the Judge about three months before the meeting of the last’ Baltimore National Demooratic Convention, carrying eff with him all the fishy and unkey Democrats notorious for seek- ing special favors at the hands of Congress, the Judge would have been the nominee of the ‘party’? for the last presidential race. Lt is weil koown to these behind the curtain, that the evident determination of thar class of politicians, most of them fresh from the Taylor ranks, to use him, if possible, to carry through their schemes on the Treas- ury, defeated hie prospects. The econo mists of the party turned their backs on him in the Convention, only because these parties insisted upon standing imthe front rank of his supporters The Judye and his relinble and valoable friends knew well what caused ihe defeat of his nomination, and did their best to disconnect him from the uaputa- tation of such associations. They publicly and privately disolaimed all sympathy with those disinterested’ gentlemen, ‘but to no pur- pose; the time-for such’ action on -their party having pasted before they discovered that he was likely to be held reapousible for their vagiries of all sorts in publit affairs Judge Douglas is indeed to be congratulated if he manages to rid himself of futureimputations of responsibility for what they may do in con- nection with American parties. Laborin the Executive Departments.—Yes- terday, in explaining the highly ‘satisfactory condition of the business of the Pension Bu- reau, we took ocoasion briefly to remark that the business of nearly a'l the different gov- ernment offices iu this city was up to the cur- rent,demands upon them We have now to say, in addition to that fact, that in the pilet year the business requiring to be done by them bas.increasod in each from twenty to thirty per centum upon the business they had to.de cnty tle year befure. This i3 the reault | of the immouse-sprizg- forward, which all the great interests. agricultural, mechavical, oom- tion. Not a single additional bushel of wheat, or bale of eotton goods, or box of friction matches, is experted, and not a single ad- ditional sail-boat of ten tons is built anywhere in the United States, without imperceptibly in- creasing the amount of labor to be performed in the government departments at Washington. Congress has, of late, been exceedingly -anwill- ing to allow an increase of clerical forcéin any bureau; which has, in turn, compelled those responsible for their management to study closely how their methods of transacting busi- ness, $f be’ iniproved; until ‘imAttors Have come to go on like clock-w:rk here. There never before was a time when all the em- ployes of the Government in Washington were keptso steadily empioyed, and when it wag so utterly impossible fur any to shirk work Registers aro kept in every office of the amount of business of work done by each cf {ts em. ployes, and when one fs found ‘to lag be- hind in the discharge of the duties for which he receives pay from the Government, be he whom he may, he is promptly notified tha: his derelictien has come under the Sognizante of his chief, and that it repetition will eurely cause him (hé fhss of his office. ‘Inis warning is now invariabiy followed by his removal in case it proves insufficient to spur bim up to the proper discharge of his duties. An Interesting set of Tables.—We under- stand that tho Secretary of the Treasury is causing to be prepared a comparative state- ment of the working of the tariff of 1846, of the operation of the rates under the bill as prepared and reported by the Committee of Ways and Means, and under the provisions (changes of the existing law) which he recom- mended in lieu of tho:e reported as above mentioned. ‘The importations ot each article for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1853, and, again, the average annual importations for the six years ending on that dato, are taken as the basis of these interesting calculations. This is doing the work. thoroughly, and will afford Congross, at the next session, an oppor- tunity to act upon the proposition to alter the rates of duties with better light before their eyes than ever before. The task, however, turns cut to be an herculean labor. The Columbus Bank Defaleation.—It ia un- derstood at the Treasury Department that the Government's suit egainet the City Bank of Colum»us, Ohio, is now undergoing a final trial at Columbus, Ohio, before the. United States District Court. The claim is for $100,000 deposited with that bank, under one of Mr. Secretary Corwin’s transfor drafts,’ which are held by the present authorities of the Treasury Department to have been illegal. A Resignation from the Marine Corps.—We learn on the Avyenxe, that Brevet Major Archibald H. Gillespie. of the Marine corps, has resigned. His resignation is said to have growo out of his difficulty with the ward-room (meas) officers of the Independence, which re- cently got into the New York newspapers, over the signature of the latter. A Mistake.—The United States have zoe directed 2 prosecution under the Sub-Treasury law to be commenced against Mr. Jacob Al- ticks late Collector of the Customs at Wil- mington, Del., as alleged by many persons in Washington. The balance claimed as due from him is but some $1,600. The suit to be entered against himisa civil suit.
