New Orleans is just budding out again; two of the most ever daysthat have blessed our senses for 6 months, have just passed over our heads, and we are now on the morning of the third—the air is cool and bracing, the sun clear, but not hot, and bu- siness, which for long and tedious months has been bowing to the Sirocco blasts of summer, now rais- | es its head and snuffs the reviving breeze, and re- covering from its long prostration, begins to flow a stre em of life and vigor through the veins of our city; and then, the ladies! our beautiful Creoles !— two weeks since you would have thought them all crossed the Styx ‘in yellow fever ferry boats; but now you find they were only dwelling in a kind of chrysalis state athome ; but when this refreshin, breeze stole through their latticed windows, and they saw in the columns of the Pic. “fresh arri- vols,” “fall fashions,” &c., they could no longer itand the temptation, but turned out en masse, giving.

K. COLLINS & LATEST INTELLIGENCE, BY LAST EVENING’S MAIL, | ‘Washington. (Correspondence of the Herald.) | Wasuixeton, Oct. 3, 1845. | Theadministration is getturg on so smoothly—the machinery is all working so well, that one can scarcely hear the creaking of a wheel, or the friction | of a cylinder. The guillotine is quite rusty from disuse, and the dread of its horrible blade isonly remembered as a fearful dream. There are no more decapitations here, and the consternation of | the first three months of the administration has passed away, and things about the Executive de- partments wear an aspect ’'s pleasant and benign,and and’ tho Curtain will rise precisely at | 85— | “Calm as a summer's morning.” The Cabinet, we are officially and reiteratedly in- formed, so far from discordant—so far from in- | tiguing against each other and the administration, | are just as harmoniously co-operative, as— “The happy band of brothers, 6 old granite State.” Still, we expect Mr. Buchanan, will be transferred | from the Diplomatic to the Judicial Department of the government—that Mr. Walker, if he remains in | the Treasury so long, will only remain until amodi- | fication of the tariff shall have been consummated. | The routine of business, the posting of the books, &e., in every bureau of every department, is under process of completion for the annual Executive re- ports to Congress. And, as “a new broom sweeps clean,” we shall anticipate chis year unusually spe- cific, clear, and interesting developments of the ope- | rations of each of the departments. We expect, particularly, from the Postmaster General, an impor- tant report upon the new postage law, with'the de- liberate deductions of the P. M. CG, that the new system is defective in a On RIEAROR, inefficient in its receipts, and prospectively impracticable to the independent subsistence of the various and multi{ rious operations of this great branch of the public service. The Postmaster General and his assistants have been kept as busy this summer over their papers | and letters as house carpenters in a new country.— | The correspondence of the department, upon resig- | nations and appointments, upon construction of the new law by country deputies, upon the official re- ports of deputies, upon contracts, and proposals for Nelson | contracts, &c. We., has come in by bags full of let- ters per diem. About 1809 of the httle deputies, the receipts of whose offices vary from one hundred dollars toseven cents, have resigned since the adop- tion of the law, and nothing but a restoration of the fees and salaries to postmasters, the same in amount lendid and extensive saloon will | as under the old law,has saved many little sixpenny ‘ors, who may enjoy themselves by Water spreading in er covered plat- offices from utter extinction. Among the most curious inventions patented of late, are the artificial jaws, by Dr.John Allen, of New Orleans. A pair of lantern jaws, whether thin from loss of teeth or want of flesh, are filled out by the insertion of this apparatus, as round and natural ascan be. It is certainly not only an ingenious in- vention, but one which will bring back many a sunken-jawed old bachelor, and many a sharp and meat-axe physiognomy of an old maid to the stan- dard of five and thirty. Back “To the days of their flirtations, A long time ago.” We expect in a few days to have something to say for the edification of Senator Dickinson, of New York, that will be very acceptable to his constitu- e nis. Colonel Medill, second assistant postmaster-gene- ral, has gone off on a short visit to Ohio for the ar- rangement of his private affairs, and for all we know to look up, after the example of Senator Allen, and take unto himself among the Buckeys. But we con- fess we are not sanguine of the consummation. WESsHINGTON, Oct. 2, 1845. Things Present and to Come. No intelligence decisive of peace or war from the South Western or Texan frontier. United States troops still being augmented by fresh recruits of volunteers and regulars. Nothing from Mexico.— The next news may very probably be that Paredes has overturned the Government and set up for him- self. 4 Captain Stockton left the city thisevening in the Northern train. Captain Geisinger of the Navy, is at Coleman’s. /tem—Coleman’s little pleasure steam- boat for the Potomac, isexpected round from New York soon. z We expect the extra Senatorial mileages of the late Executive Session, will be brought betore the public only through a resolution by the Senate.— There seems to be no other way of getting at the official vouchers of these most extraordinary Sena torial perquisites. Gen. Duff Green is still quartered at Galabrun’s Hotel. Beajamin isthere too. The General, mean- time, is not an indifferent spectator of the political intrigues at head-quarters. He will show you by and by that he has a finger in the pie. We shall attempt a regular political essay to-mor- row on the movements and news of the times. Wasurtnaton, Oct. 2, 1845. Inquiry into the Conduct of Lieut. McLaughlin. The Court of Inquiry was convened for the pur- pose of taking into consideration a resolution adopted by the House of Representatives of the U. States, March 3d, 1845, in the following words: “Resolved, That the Secretary of the Navy be direct- ed to cause a full investigation into the expenditures of the Florida squadron, under the command of Lieutenant McLaughlin, and report the same to the next session of Congress, with his opinion as to the propriety of the ex- penditures made by said McLaughlin, and particularly to show the amount of money paid him, and the amount to which he was entitled.” The Court met pursuant to adjournment, and Dr. V. L. Godon was called and testitied. 1 was passed Assistant Surgeon under the command of Lieut. McLaughlin, of the Florida squadron; I was on board the schooner Van Buren; | know nothing of the expenditures of the hospital; I never saw any extravagant expenditure in the expedition. We had in one of the boat expeditions scouts, a detachment of the army, and we provided for them whenever they required any thing in the medical line. I sup- se there were about sixty men in this detachment; am now speaking of the hospital besa and de- partment altogether; we had an abundant supply of provisions; I occasionally called for a little ot every delicacy for the sick ; they were always freely giv- en; the oflicers in these scouting parties had pro- visions provided for them by themselves ; we re- ceived at Indian Key, on board of our vessels, whatever medicines were required for all those that were seriously ill. Captain burke was the officer in command of the detachment I speak of; I pre- scribed sometimes brandy, but mostly porter ; I took a small portion of Sherry and Madeira wine, but do not remember if Ifprescribed any ; I may have giv- en it freely for the sick ; we obtained some liquors at Baltimore ; I obtained no liquors from the Indian Key hospital ; the porter was obtained at Key Bys- cian ; about 3 dozen bottles the Court.—There was no control of any medical officer over any other in relation to the medical supplies for the sick. ‘The rations and re- quisitions of the medical department were never made out, and the accounts were very irregular! kept. We were agreat deal out of our vessels an the service was very irregular. It was impossible to make returns in the boat expeditions. Dr. Jounson, from Charleston, S.C. was called and sworn. . By the Judge Apvocare.—I am engaged in the druggist business in Charleston, S. C. As vourtes and bills for medical supplies were here shown the witness.) I should judge that some of these articles are the Charleston prices, although a majority of them exceed those prices about 20 or 25 percent. retail Some of the articles are double the price. Any druggist in Charleston would allow 5 per cent. discount upon such a bill of medicines. By the Courr.—I never, to m spiel age de supe plied the Florida expedition with drugs. I would say that the present prices were about right for pur- chases to be made at Charleston and resold in Flor- ida. 9" ws Dr. Woopwarp called and sworn. | By Lieut. McLaveutin.—Of the first precept 1 know nothing. As regards the second, no waste of stores of any kind, and particularly the medical ones, ever came under m: ; observation. I was at- tached to the schoener Flirt, under Lieut. MeL. from September, 1841, to August, 1842. Of the third, I know nothing and | know of no cause for believ- ing that there existed between Lieut. McL. and any other person, or any attempt todefraud. Under the fourth, I know of no unnecessary purchases, or un- usually high prices paid for purchases. Relatively, the prices were high, but I believe them to have been the market prices at Key West, {ndian Key and Charleston. Rasen the fifth, I don’t believe that any of the buildings were un- necessary, or the chi rges too high for erection, &c. As regards the sixt I do not believe there was any unnecessary purchase of canoes or the cost extravagant, ‘The canoes were all employed in the service of the Government, and they were not pleasure bosts either. As tothe seventh J have no reason to believe that the buildings were improper- ly occupied or persons uselessly employed in Lae. Mobs. service and paid by the government.
