The Secret Correspondence of Louis Pnl- | lippe and his Family. ‘The following 1s the list of the curious autogra- phic letters of Louis Philyppe and his family, which we have announced as having received from Paris :— One autograph letter from Louis Philippe to the King of Nap‘es. One autograph letter from the Queen of France to the Queen of Naples. One document of private memoranda, entrusted to the Count de Rigny, in the hand writing of the Queen, relating to the marriege of her daughter Mane to Prince Leopold. Three letters from the Duc d’ Aumale to the Queen. One letter from Louis Philippe to the King of Naples, relative to the marriage of his daughter. One letter from the Duc de Dalmatie, Marsha Soult, to the King, (L. P.) These are origmals, m the handwriting of the parties named, all of which are now in our posses- sion, and can be seen by any person calling for such a purpose. We shall begin their publication, both in French and English, in the beginning of next week. These documents will produce a sen- sation in England and France. The Policy of Genernl Taylor's Administra, tlon—Appointments to Office. Now that the smoke of the conflict has partially cleared away, and that men’s minds have returned to that condition which will permit the calm con- sideration of those topics by which they have lately been so violently goftated, it is proper that the probable policy of the incoming administra- tion should be thoronghly diecussed. There is one thing upon which General Taylor mey well congratulate himself—his elevation to power is wholly independent of any mere, or exclu- sive, party influences. He enters on the perform- ance of his duties es free from party trammel as Washington or Monroe. He 18, therefore, not bound to do the behests of any party. He is wholly unpledged and unshackled He 1s thus in a portion to avoid the errors of his predecessors, who, first tied down by the nomination of a certain party to be its slave while in office, have per- formed their duties seemingly with no other object but to carry out the corrupt will of a few politi- cians. The mode of electing President which has prevailed for some time past, has been utterly dis- graceful. Whatever party could intrigue best was most successful; and the candidate for the Presidency, before his election, had mortgaged to the politicians, in consideration of their support, all the patronage in his gift. The consequence was, that he had quite enough to do during his term, to attend to the fulfilment of the many pro- mises by which he had purchased his elevation. Every four years, therefore, there was a violent and disgraceful seramble {or office, and the busi- ness of the government was interrupted, and often thrown into utter confusion, by the appointment of new men to the public offices, inexperienced, and | wholly incapable of performing their duties. Hap pily this system has at length been discontinued | It General Teylor be pledged et all, itis to dis- | countenance all proscription for opinion sake. His inchnation and sentiments are strongly opposed to 1; should the politicians attempt to force him to yield to their sordid advice, they will doubtless find that they have mistaken his character. This system, lately practised to such an extent, whether originating with General Jackson or not, (as the whige charge,) 1# 80 contrary to the very spirit of our republican institutions—so tyrannical in ite exercise, 86 subversive of the public inte- reets, and tends so much to individua! ruin, by turning the minds of our people from their legiti- mate avocations to the thirst for official patronage, that it 1s almost incredible it has been tolerated so Jong. The people have at length, by the election of General Taylor, set their seal of condemnation upon it, and we may now hope to see it forever crushed The first thing to be considered in appointments to office, is a regard for the public iuterests. ‘The offices in the gift of the executive have not been created for any set of individuals, or for any party: No person can set np a cleim to office It exista | not for individual benefit, but for the public weal. Itve, therefore, the lotter interest that 18 to be con- sidered, and not the former and capability | are, then, the only legitimate recommendations We justly look with ecorm en the English system under which men euccerd to titles and office with- out any individes! merit, and often in despite of very glering inaividual dement ; but to bestow cflice merely becnuse of a man’s beheving a cer- tain set of doctrines to be correct, and ano.her et to be erroneous, 18 just as great an absurdity. ‘There is no difference between regions and po- Ibelic. In both, men exercise the same i ' ndte pr for one is just as despotic as to proscribe for the other. The senee of the country would be shocked if any President would attempt to remove men from of- fice because they happen to be of a certain reli- gious pereuasion; and yet, to remove them because they entertain certain po'v cal opinions, is cer- tainly quite as deepotic and unreasonable. This d+spotism has, | ow-ve r, unfortunately been exer- cised to such an extent that the perpl-e have at length deemed it tme to jronounce judgmeny uyon it, and they have done so in such a manner asto leave no doubt of their sentiments on the sub- ject. Both parties have hitherto proscribed men for holding political opinions contrary to their own Public officers have been changed at the incoming o every admiristration, for the last twenty years. Men were removed simply because they were democrats or whige, as the case might be. Merit and the public interests were wholly disregarded. Of course, those in office, knowing the precarious- ness of their tenure, and that partizanship would have more weight than the due performance of their duty, were coreless o! the latter, and applied them- selves to make interest with those who had the best chance of coming into power. Then, upon the inauguration of a new President, those hold- ing different opimons from the successful party were indiscriminately ousted, and men installed 1n office who, for months after, could not acquire a knowledge of their duty sufficient for its proper | discharge. The men thus unceremoniously ousted, go out again into the world, thorough'y soiled, turned by asenge of wronz into mere politicians, and having apparently but one object—to subvert those by whom their own removal from office has | been effected. Society at length becomes fermented with this leaven of jealousy and bitterness, and every second man is turned into a politician and an office-seeker. Such are the concomitants of this wretched system of proscription for opinion’s sake. The country may congratulate itself that it has at length, by the elevation of General Taylor, go; rid of this disgraceful system. There is to be no more remova!s from or appointments to office, mere- ly because a man happens to be a democrat ora whig. Merit is to be the only test of success. A man’s fitness will be judged of, not by the number of whig speeches be has made, but by his integrity and ability. We do not say, of course, that the President elect will not choose his constitutional advisers from amongst those who agree with him on matters ot public policy; but, on the other hand, we are confident that the mere working officers ot the government—men whose opinions do not in” terfere at a!l with the performance of their duty— will be retained in cffice, except on sufficient proof that they are either dishonest or incapable. Thus General Taylor will have the sentiment of nine- tenths of the country in support of his administra- tion. By pursuing this wise, moderate, and mag- nanimous cou's*, (which we have not the least doubt he is resolved to pureue,) he will divest party spirit of all personal bitterness, and set an example which will conduce more to the future welfare cf this country than all the protective tariffy or banking systems that have ever been conceived 1n the brains of politictans. TuportTant Secret Movement or Wuie Pott mictans-—-New Kircnen Canter. -The election ot General Taylor 1s now certain. The next im- portant step among the whig leaders, and those who are after the spoils and honors of office, will be an orgamzation at all the important central points, in order to give a direction to the new.ad- ministration, a8 well as to the movements ef the new whig party hereafter. Accordingly, we found a few days ago, the following curious call in the Couruer and Enquirer, which may be considered the organ of the new organization of the whig leaders who wil! come into power and expecta. tion, by the recent revolution which will carry Gen. Taylor into office : ‘The menbere of the original Taylor Committee of Ar- rangements. under whore direstions the Taylor meet- ings in this city took place, prior tothe nomination by the whig National Convention. will moet at their head | ming at © o'clock, or their accounts, anctual attendance Is 4 sine UGH MAXWELL, M. H, GRINNELL, J.P HALL, FRANGIS GRIFFIN, SIMEON DRAPER, Jusn, J WATSON WEBB, W. BLUNT, RY R. DUNHAM. These are the names forming the special sub- committee of direction forthe new erganization of the whig party in this city and State. All of the old leaders who favored the exclusive nomination of Mr. Clay by the Philadelyhia Convention, are thrown aside, and broken into pieces. These are the new menof the new day. Mr. Moses HI. Grinnell was formerly a member of Congress, and isa high- ly respectable, wealthy, and intell:gent merchant, and probably manoges the financial concerns of tue new party. Hugh Maxwell and Prescott Hall have been the orators of the recent campaign, and, of course, will come in for their expectations. The others are not of much account. In Philadelphia, a similar coterie exists, formed of Joseph R. Ingersoll, Josiah Randall, and John Sergeant. In Boston, Abbott Lawrence and several others, occupy a similar position. There men and these committees will, with their associates in the different States, aspire to form some new regimé, which will endeavor to give a political direction to the measures and appoint- ments of Gen. Taylor. We understand that Moses H. Grinnell has already been named in connection with the collectorship of New York, Mr. Maxwell or Mr. Hall for United States Dis- trict Attorneyship, and Mr. Webb for Postmaster of this city. These would no doubt be very good appointments, provided the general principle of removing {rom office for opinion’s gake should become one of the traits of the new adminis- tration. The changes, however, which the recent revolu- tion will bring about in the personnel of the whig party, wili be very great in this region of country. Mr. Webster, we believe, is looked upon as ont of | the line of safe precedent. His reluctant move- | ments in faver ct Gen. Taylor, and the strange speeches pronounced by him on the ject, have caused, it 18 believed, the disorganization of the whig party in the State of Massachusetts and several other of the New England States ; a dis- organization which, but for the election of the pre- ceding legislature, might have endangered the | success of Gen. Taylor lumself. It is genera'ly coasidered that both Mr. Clay and Mr. Webster are out of the present movement and the infla- ences which may shape the new administration, Mr. Cliy has written letters to persons in this neighborhood, denouncing the nomioation of Gen Taylor ae “ disgracetul to the country ” This is said to be a fact, since the election terminated. All these various secret movements of the lead - ing politicians and journals who contributed to, wards the election of General Taylor, may not, however, reach that point of saecess which their authors look for. It was by a similar system, aod by a like inflience, springing from individual coterves and cliques, that originated the measures and the appointments to office by which General Jarrison’s administration was almost biokea to pieces, even before the old man died and gave up the reins to Captain Tyler. Who has forgotten the “Kitehen Cabinet” of General Jackson? Ua- der-ground workings and secret influeaces, when | adopted by even influential and important mea, will not prevail to any extent in this eulishteaed } dey, when all measures can be openly discussed | and debated by a iiee and independent newspaper | press.

" Savannan, Oct. 16, 1848. At an adjourned meeting of the Irish Union So- eteqy, held at their hall, on the above date, the businees of the Society being gone through ; Mr. Micuart Frovey addressed the members of the Society in a few briet remarks in allusion to the course taken by the Editor of the New York Herald, with regard to the relative conduct of England and Ireland tatelv. In conclusion, he moved that a committee of five be ap ointed by the chair, to dratta preamble and resolution ex- pressive of the feelings of the members of the So- ciate beating’ on the matter. ¢ following commitee were appointed, viz. : John, Everard, Michael Fioey, Joho kelly, Martin Duggan, and John Masterson. The committee retired, and in a short time re- turned. The chairman offered the following preemble and resolution:— ‘Whereas we bave viewed, with sincere and heart- ft entistaction, the laudable and praiseworthy crn- duct of James Gordon Bennett, of the New York Herold. for the able end independent manner in which be has advocated the cause of Ireland, and the universal treedom of man all over the world; and while be, as a citizen of thia great «nd free republio. covld net any longer indulge the hope of the tmme- diate freedom of Ireland from the worse than tyrant graep of British domio! he, unlike the mejority of the press of t! country - msay of whom, we fear, are panderers to the British aristocrac: ben be cannot acc unt for the failuce lion, ig the no, the Irish never were, neither are they at prerent coward: No; but James G.

MARTIN DUGGAN, Secretary of the Irish Union Society. Exectien oF Mr Greeiey anp Mr. Brooxs ro Conaress—A Humane Prorosition.—The elec- tion of Mr. Greeley and Mr. Brooks to Congress, by respectable majorities, seems to have given a great deal of joy tocertain small politicians and Journalists. Thisis all very natural; but the two gentlemen are certainly more indebted to the great popularity of General Taylor for their election, than to any particular merit of their own as phi- losophers, men or politicians It 1s even said that both Mr. Greeley and Mr. Brooks made their no- minations a condition before coming out for Gen. Tay'or, at all; and really this would seem likely, for Mr. Brooks for many months considered old Rough and Ready a mere piece of “spontaneous combustion;” and Mr. Greeley pronounced him nothing but a ‘journeyman throat-cutter.” How generous, therefore, of Gen. Taylor to carry in those amiable journalists on his back, as the lion sometimes walks along the menagerie, exhibiting a monkey and a rat to the newsboys. Well, be it so. Our two cotemporaries may now prepare for business; and considering their position and persone, we now distinctly make an eppeal to the charitable and humane of all parties, forthe purpose of getting up a subscription so as to fit them out properly for Congress. Mr. Greeley wants a new white hat, a new drab great coat, a pair of pantaloons of ordinary length, and a pair of two dollar boots, together with a pockethand- kerchief, so as to save his sleeve hereafter. With such a fitting out, he would make a very respecta- ble appearance on the floor of the House of Rep- resentatives, and would carry with him much more influence than he could inhis present cam- paign costume. Mr. Brooks also requires a litle preparation. A subscription sufficient to purchase a box of good washing soap and tualf a dozen towels, so a8 to give his countenance some clean- liness of expression, will be required in his case. We dov’t want any longer to hear our cotempora- ry called by the loccfocos, “Dirty taced Jim.” We must send our two cotemporariesto Con. gress on a respectable footing, and therefore do we appeal to the humane and charitable of all par- ties, toopen subscription papers at all public places, and make their returne to this office as soon as posible, We have only three weeks ta prepare Greeley; but we can put Bronk, downk in soa for a year or more. New Yorx axp its Greatxess—Mepicat Cor LEGES —-The growing and increasing greatness of the city of New York has formed the theme of toaste, orations and sermons, and been descanted upon from the stage, the bench, and the bar, al- most every day, for the last quarter of a century. It is a great city, unquestionably. It and its suburbs contain a population not much under half a million; ships of every nation, laden with the fruits and products of every clime, reach our docke; our pub- lic und private buildings, for taste and elegance, will contrast favorably with those of any city in the world; her aqueduct is a wonder to every one who bas eeen it, and our streets are more filthy than any in Christendem. Even in the dir- tiness of our thoroughfares, thanks to the negli- gence of our corporate authorities, we can claim precedence. In fine, 1t is indisputable that New York is a great city, and that itis destined to be- ccme greater and greater, until it shall be the first and finest in the world. But it ig not alone in respect to the dirtiness of our streets, or the number, magnitude, and magnifi- cerce of our public and private bui'diogs, that New York can juvtly lay claim to being a great city; but itis tothat which they are the result of. Foreigners may lampoon us as they may; but there 18 as much refined taste, as much enlight. enment, as much mental cultivation, and as mach respect paid to genius and the fine arts, in our me- trepolig, as there 18 in avy other city inthe world, | in proportion to its population. Letan actor ot talent and ability appear on our stage, and he 13 patromsed. Let a master-piece of sculptures or of painting be exhibited, and our citizens’ of all giades and classes, wil not rest satis- fied till they have se:n it, and pronounced their judgment vpon its ments, This taste for the beau- tiful pervades even the mechanic arts.’ Look at he beautiful models of our river steamboats, ocean steamehipe, and sailing vessels. See the used in the kitchen, the pur or, the drawing room, the workshop, er the studio. The evidence of a high apprecimion for what is beautijuland chaste characterizes each and every article, down to the most common implements in daily use, Another feature to the greatoess of this city has been added within a few years, We allude to the derervedly high rank which her medical colleges have reached. The greatest medical talent that the country | oseeeses, both foreign and native, is to be found here; and whereas other eities used formeily to bear the pilm in this respect, students from every State of the Union, the Canadas, and Weet Indies, now resort to our universities to lenin the profession, It cannot be devied that the medical profession ofthe United States,until withi: a few years, ranked low, or at lenst much lower than it does new. It, however, like every other profession, became aninmted by the spirit of the nge, ond started on a career of improvemecot, until it has attained a position as high as that held by the feculty of any other country. Consistency.—Mr. Grecley, of the Tribune, is eo enraptured with his election as member of Con- preee, that bie senses have almost left him, Oa Thureday last, he eaid in his paper, that the whigs should not indulge in noisy exn'tation at the seaal, of the Preeidential election; while it was only the evening before, that he sMuminated his establish” ment fiom top to bottom, and discharged any q ao. ty of rockets and other fireworks. trom the -o of therecf, If thie was not © noisy ex dtetion,” we dcowt know the meaning of the terra Truly, con- ros tg a viltue not ensdy found politi t.Ley in THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
