The Unron transfers to its columns, with a complimentary notice, an extended extract from a message of Governor Marcy to the Leg- istature of New York in 1836, in which he com- municated, with his accustomed clearness and force, his views of the abolition question, and defined the powers and duties of the several States upon that subject. +3 —___—. WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP To Buy, orn Nor to Buy.—Tuatis THe QuEs_ ios '—As we find in many papers contradic. tory accounts concerning the resignation of Mr. Glover, the naturalist and artist attached to the agricultural branch of the Patent Office bureau—some saying that ho will resign, others that he won't resign, others again that he as ‘resigned, and still other statements that he has withdrawn his resignation— it strikes us that some pettion of the public may take interest enough in tho matter to jus- tify us in unraveling all this jumble, and ex- plaining how it originated. We have. therefore, to say, that Mr. Glover is the gentleman who for some years past has been employed in inves. tigating for the bureau the habits and charac- teristics of insects and other vermin that are pests to agricuiturists, delineating them for en- graving.&c.. 4c. His pay is $2,000 per annum. Previous to taking this empfoyment he spent some years in getting up, in a composition, a beautiful and really valuable collection of ex- act representations of various American fruits, cereals, &c., &e., which were shown at some of the Northern agricultural fairs and duly “blown” over inthe newspapers. He has been desirous to sell them to the Government at $10,000 ; probably not a dollar more than they are really worth, as their construction was cest- ly, evidently, in the actual expenditure of money necessery to get them up. as well as in his own time, for which he should be paid hand- somely, as he isa man of genius and singular accomplishments in his walk of art and science. The Commissioner of Patents more than a year ago recommended to Congress to appropriate the suim he asks for them. tothat end. Forlast year’s expenditures of the Patent Office bureau on account of agriculture, $75,000 was appro- Priated by Congress without specifying the par- tioular objects for which it should be disbursed. Seeretary McClelland, in view of the fact that nothing was said in the clause of the law making this appropriation, refused to sign the requisi- tion necessary to permit any of it to go to pay for these works of art; declaring that to justify him in so doing, Congress must specify that $10,000 of the money it appropriates for the ag- ricultural purposes of the bureau is to be soex- pended. He was then presented with a peti- tion signed by more than half the members of both Houses, asking him so to expend $10,000, (of, the whole $70,000;) which “pole” failed to “feteh down the persimmons;”’ for he held that if the members really desired to have the money #0 expended, they could have secured that ob- ject by inserting in the bill such a simple clause asthefollowing: And that$i0000 of the amount so appropriated be expended for the purchase of Mr. Glover's collection of representations of American fruits. &¢.,—or something of the sort. Or, im other words, he elected to make them take the responsibility for the particular ex- penditure, if they really desired it to Le made ; knowing well that gentlemen in their position are prove to sign any and every petition put at then For the purposes of the agricultural branch of the Patent Office bureau for the current fis- eal year, $60,000 was appropriated, and the new Secretary of the Interior, rumor says, has been requested to use 310.000 of i ty purchase this collection of composition fruits; the whole of the $71,000 appropriated the year before for the service of the agricultural branch of the bu- reau having been otherwise legitimately ex- pended. But, there is no authority of law to expend @ portion of an appropriation for the service of this year to make up a deficiency existing in the appropriation for the service of the last year. So. the present Secretary is said also to have declined to make the purchase. Where- upon, Mr Glover being anxious to dispose of his composition fruits, &c., not long since ten- dered bis resignation of his $2,000-per-annum Position in the Patent Office bureau, we hear, in order that he might go elsewhere to find a parchaser for his articles. Subsequently he hus withdrawn his letter of resignation. Tt is the duty of gentlemen filling the post o¢ Secretary of the Interior to regard the strict letter of the law in authorizing expenditures of the public money. If, in this case, by so doing the public service might lose the labors of Mr Glover, we presume the present Secretary, how- ever much he may regret the catastrophe, will quietly supply his place by another appoint- ment as svon as possible; there being no re- warkable scarcity of artist-naturalists uneither side of the Atlantic at this time, and $2.000 per annum being a rate of compensation that will Le very certain to attract to the service of the Government some very competent gentleman. In the meanwhile, we trust that Congress will, at its next session, appropriate openly and fpecifically for the purchase of Mr. Glover's composition fruits—well worth every dollar asked for them to the bureau, and will, in that way end this tempest in a teapot—for, fur the life of us, we can make little more out of the current © imbrogtio” upon the subject. — Tae Sovtuenn Press ox Kaysas.—Each succeeding mail loads our table with Southern Democratic journals earestly engaged in the work of defending the policy and acts of the Aduiuistration with reference to Kansas af- fairs, that not long since were quite a8 earnest in the condemnation of what they then under- stood to be its policy and acts, and also those of Gov.
