House of Representatives, makes a charge that the Clerk of the Honse last winter retained three months pay due to himself and three of his fellow clorks, making an aggregate of $1 800; and intimates that he (the Clerk) appropriated the money ¢0 obtained to his own emolument. On seeing this grave charge, as in duty bound we proceeded to ascertain how far it was founded on fact.

Cullom, the 3d of De- cember last, it was promptly paid by him back to the credit of the House contingent fund. Thus, instead of being in any manner to blame in this transaction, the Clerk of the House deserves the thanks of all who agree in holding the interference of Federal cffico hold- ers in politics to be prejudicial to the public interest. We find farther, that while holding his present office, Gen. Callom has not drawn a dollar from the Treasury on his own account above and beyond his salary. Gen. C. is our political opponent, it is trae, but that shal! not prevent us from thus vindicating his rep- utation from the aspersion involved in Mr. Burnett's publication; on finding, as we do, (without being in any manner indebted to his instramentality in so doing ) that the rea! facts of the case by no means justify the infer ences to be drawn from Mr. B.’s card, on which we are commenting. The following are the statements referred to above: As we perceive that certain charges have been made by persons dismissed from office by Gen.

Stan- ton of Tennessee, had been tendered the post of Secretary of State of Kansas Territory. It seems, according to the impression of residents of the Territory now in Washington, that no idea has been entertained by the Government here of supersediog Mr. Daniel Woodson The Hon. F. W. Pickens, of South Caro- lina, is at Willards’, in this city. It is ane derstood in well-informed political circles here, that he was some time since offered a fall for- eign mission by the Administration.
