‘The Constitution reads the Rev. George B.

Miller all the property she possessed, reserving to herself nlf an annual income of $5,000 during her life. The circumstances under which the paper was executed scemed to have no doubt that Mrs. Dud- Jey never intended such a disposition of her estate. Indeed, she denied ever having executed such @ paper. Under these circumstances it was deter- mined by the parties interested—(the estate, by ber will, wos to be divided among five fami- lies)—to contest the validity of the deed. Pre- lim! iary proceedings were had, when a commit tee was hinted at Ex-Governor King was chosen soediator. and aftersome negotiation it wasagreed that Mr. Miller should assent to a revocation of the deed, he being paid $10,000 cash for the interest of bischildren. But this has now been upset by the refusal of Mrs. Dudley, acting by advice of counsel, to pay the $10.000. So the matter goes to the Courts, where the life of the old lady and the estate may both be exhausted. Tue Zexicw Coxrerexce.—The questions to be discussed before the Zurich Conference are : 1. The proportion of the Austrian debt to be tm- posed upon Lombardy; 2. The restoration of the Dukes and Duebess of Tuscany, Modena, and Parma. and the return of the Bologuas to the Pope; 3. The formation of a Confederacy, with the Pope as President. Many other points of minor importance are to be discussed. but have‘net yet been touched, the difference of opinion between the’ plentpotentiaries on the first three being 50 great that it was thought necessary to apply for fastructions at headquarters. A correspondent of the New York Post. from Nice, Italy, says: « It fs not expected here that the cont ence ob ieey mnneed to bos about a Wetilement 1 the contending parties. It is trne that the bases were laid ta the Villa Franea il me but that convention framed them, leavi, to be arranged thereafter, according to fees pan gencies of the moment. Austria insists upon the restoration of the old dynasties; the Sardinians resist it; Franee plays the part of yo between t them; and. on the other band, the people of the Duchies and the Legations declare that they ‘will repuise by arins, ‘and all other means in theit Power, any bapa to epee tani them os a “The Hesth Eripieessiats to ‘anticipate difi- eulties to ng outof the complicationsat Zurich, and the following corps d’armee, under the com: mand of Marshal Vailiant, have received orders to Tree their de ete Soa 5 divisions of Iu. ws Piacenza, is Pan 2 ade of , wag: — stationed at Milan, forming’ 2 total on 50.000 men; besides the above, sa of corps that _ started last week for Prance Lave been ordered remain places where were tre 8 | patil further orders. “z he , writing + Lyovsrious SqueaLine.—The determination of he Secretary of the Treasury to reduce the ex- nses of collecting the ¢ revenue to the owest point compatible with ‘continues to disgruntle the army Bioners of the Government in ‘annum; a contract being made for hereafter doing much of that business, heretofore done by persons on Goverament salaries, Whereupon the various ergans of the army above referred to—and each | division of it has its own organ—blate out lugu- briously against the injustice of depriving Honest’ Democratic laborers of baa wages received from the-@overnment, &c., &e: ~~ cla doctrine roy that nts. ‘The Government does not exist to afford employment for any ‘men, and muich less for men of one political party. To hold a contrary doctrine involves holding the doctrine that it is right and proper to expend the public fands for party purposes; as well as the doctrine of the propriety of tithing the pay of Federal employees for partizan political expenses. Or, in other words, it leads to the justification of unlimited corruption in all branches of the Gov- ernment, and to outrageous oppression of those who serve the Government on the part of any who may manage to constitute themselves political tax- collectors for the nonce. It also encourages the active interference in politics of the very last men in the land who should rightfully be entrusted with the responsibility of leading the public mind. We refer to the shoulder-hitting haunters of grog shops, and other seekers after unimpor- tant places under the Governmeut, who, attaching thensclves to the political fortunes of this or that demagogne for what they hope to make by the operation, are influencing the action of the vari- ows conventions of all parties, so that year by year the latter Lecome more corrupt, and of course, more and more reflect the will of those whose interference in politics is for selfish and improper ends. Such is the legitimate result of the spoils’? doctrine as now practiced b; atl parties when and wherever in power. Of lite years the increase of the proportion of members of the National Legislature utterly un- qualified for the intelligent discharge of the na- tional legislator’s functions has made thinking men ponder seriously over the rapid degeneration of American public affairs. We attribute that in- crease to the prevalance of + the spoils” dogtrine; which generates everywhere a battalion of small meddlers in politics who shape results in all con- tested cases, in mine cases out of ten, to the real injury of the public service. Twenty-five years ago the man who would have suggested the propriety of trking into considera- tion the question of the politics of anapplicaut for mechanic's ot laberer’s work would have been hooted out of society. Now, however, the first question asked éf all who apply for sueh work under any branch of the Government, whether g*neral, State or municipal, with either party in power, is—Is he for. or against us, politically? Thus, work is often accorded, not according ‘to the relative capacity of applicants to execute it best for the public interest, but plamply with re- ference to their (the applicant's) politics. We regard the habit as being, in plain English, a habit of paying for partizan political services Out of the public funds; which we imagine will find no apoligists of character when thus broadly stated. Indulgence in it is fast leading, in all quarters of the country, to the habit of regarding public contracts as patronage. The treasuries of the State and city of New York have been plundered of many natold millions in that way; and for the last ten or twelve years there has hardly passed a day when Washington city has not been disgraced with the presence of gangs of “ distinguished gen- tlemen*’ more or less conspicuous in party poli- tes. engaged in endeavoring-to bring personal intiuence to bear in the disposition of contrac s that should rightfally go to the lowest bidders Of course, every Federal Administration seeks to counteract the schemes of such parties. Yet, under all Federal Administrations that have held power in the last twelve years, such men have worked intinite mischief to the public interest. All such practices are but legitimate results of the odious and corrupting “ spoils” doctrine. —e Trovere ox Boarv of AmeRican Mencnant- MEN —Since Congress undertook to Interfere by statute with discipline on American merchant- men, forbidding whipping, &c., real tragedies seem gradually to have taken the place of Jack old punisuments: Hundreds of cases have oc- curred requiring the interference of the courts of law against the perpetration of acts of cruelty on the part of captaing and mates upon seamen, fre: quently “mounting to downright and flagrant murder. Thus, on the 11th ult., Jno. W. Moody, the second mate of the Mary, of Bath, Me., mur- dered Daniel Witman, a sailor, in a British bi bor, under most cruel circumstances; and on the very next day the ship John Fife, of New York, arrived at Greenock, reporting the murder of Jno. McCarthy, a seaman, by the captain, who man- aged to get his vessel off to sea again before he could be arrested. These are not isolated cases, we regret to have to say; as almost weekly such reports find their way into the newspupers. Congress haying takea the subject in hand, is responsible for much of this new order of things. its legisintion upon it So far Las simply increased insubordination on the part of seamen on United States merchant vessels, on the one hand, and changed what was compar- atively slight cruelty on the part of the officers of such ships, to brutality which sets little valne in- deed upon human life, when the fact is realized that the result of the Congress-increased iusubor- dination has been such as to induce juries in ports where such cases are usually tried, to sanction the use of most desperate and really disproportion:te reinedies by masters and mates. is age Tar Two Bveasoos.—The Republican party —— are busily engaged ia applying the “thunder”? of Mr.S. A. Dov of their own organization. Mr. Seward that be is the great autayouist of the propcsitions to re-open the Africau slave trade and establish (by Congressional action) ‘‘a slave code for the Territories.” It is naugbty in them thus tobe filching the capital of Senator Douglas, whe originated the idea that something may be made at the North by persuading ignorant people there that the Southern Democracy are planted upon that platform. It is useless to deny the allegations, and to prove time and again that there ig no more pros- pect that the South in the Charleston Convention will vote for any such interpolations of the Cin- cinnatt platform, than that she (the South) will vote to make Dougirs the nominee—one being as likely to oecur as the other. Donglas deserves to be thas impadently robbed of his thunder, manu- factured as that was wholly out of what knew tobe the Propensity of the sensation! srt the North to be humbugged.

This offer was declined, but Mr. Lever has since intimated his willingness to give a bundred and twenty-five thousand dollars. Many of the shareholders were desirous of accepting his prop- ositions, but others deemed that the dignity of the company required that they should dispatch the steamer themselves, without hiring ft out to a speculator. It is also Proposed to issue ar thousand additional shares in the stock, whigh, i is thought, will be speedily taken up, and da give the conrpany funds to send the Great Eastera fully equipped on her first voyage. There is yet a possibility that Mr. Lever’s propositions will be acceded to, especially as he has hinted that, if re fused, he will run weekly steamers at cheap sates in order to carry the bulk of the autumn trade. is of course impossible to estimate the number z passengers that the Great Eastern will, on her first trip, bring to our shores, but doubtless they will be fewer than generally expected. As yet, she is un experiment, and the majority of people would prefer waiting for the-snccess of this experimen; before patronizing the vessel. The insurance cong panies decline insuring the steamer, except on terms too exhorbitant to adinit of an arrangement. Tur Niacana Fats Accipent,—The Rochester Union is informed that only two persons, Mr. Jouuson and Mr. Young, both of whom lived on Grand Island, went over Niagara Falis last Thurs- day.

They both managed to yet hold of the boat, and in this way floated bver the Falls. Jobnson has been a dissi- pated man, and has had two or three very narrow escapes.
