Tue Parry Paess—Watt Sraeer ann Wasu- yreTon.—It a man attempts a residence in a swamp, he is liable to malignant fevers, especially in the dog days. So it is in the moral world. If a preacher of political morality locates in a bad at- mosphere, he must be affected by the contagion, Human nature is weak, and the human mind is but the conductor of external impressions. .Tae prevailing impressions, therefore, by which he is surrounded, become the prevailing lights or shades of the character of the man, uuless strongly foru- fied by prayer and a robust moral constitution. ft was thus that Lot continued uuspotted amid the leprosy of Sedom and Gomorrah ; and it is only@y euch a steadfast adherence to @ regular plattorm, that the soundest constitution can resist the mala- ria of Wall street and Washington. Lock at the cases of Col. Webb and Father Ritchie. The corruptions of the money changers have ruined the salubrious temper of the former, and the latter has suffered as severely from the ius fectious atmosphere of the capital. They are cou. stantly breaking out in malignant eruptions. From eachers of political morality, they have become examples of personal abuse. Our amiable Wall street cotemporary is in a dreadful state. And what is it, we should like to know, that has so soured bis pleasant disposition? He abuses poor old Father Ritchie like a pickpocket. And what to be sure, has a multitude of sins, of forty year’s collection, to answer for; and, since the fourth of | March, he seems to have roused hunself and rub- bed up his spectacles, resolved to lead in the race of party scurriity. But what of that? His de. nunciations of President Taylor have been mali- gan have only aggravated his abuse. It is a matter of astonishment that since the ap- pointment of a minister to Madrid, Col. Webb has continued the faithful squire of Mr. Claytoa and ‘The democrats have not yet concluded their nominations. The convention forselecting county | the Cabinet.

It appears that some ef the aldermen and constables purpose of extorting money from keepers ot drink- ing rhope, a clase of personas who, ‘it appears, are as extensive in Philadelphia, in proportion to the population, agthey wre in New York. ‘The man- hich the money was extoried was as fol- Some of the uldermen would give money to an ageat of his, to purchase liquor in certiin tores; and on the evidence thus furnished, the liquor dealer would be muteted an a certain fine by the alderman. The sum thus levied would be divided pro rata between the informer at whose instance the party would be arrested, the consta* ble who would make the arrest, and the alderman before whom the case would be heard. In this way, we are informed, a large sum would be col- lected in the course of # year. It was sworn by one of the informers thet one ef the aldermen charged with this misdemeanor, mentioned the names of several persons to be proceeded against in this dirgraceful way, end actually turmished the informer wath bottles in which to place the liquor afier he purchased it. When the parties were are rested, und brought before the alderman, they were fined, and ‘the three eonspirators—the alderman, consteble, and informer—divided the plunder between them. ‘These startling developements, however, do not Intra-Mural Interments—Necessity for their Diseontinuanee, ae. In the fulfilment of our duties as censors of public men and wearures, and as guardians of the welfare of the vast population of ‘he metropolis, we again enter upon the subject of intra-mural interments, and the beathen practice, which te still continued, of barying the dead amidst the babitations of the living.

SRRIV AL or THE FALCON AT NEW ORLEANS, Half a Month Later from Chagres. On Saturday night, we received a telegraphic des. peteb from New Orleans, dated Friday, the 5th inst., informing ua of the arrival at thet port, of the steam- sbip Falcon, in five @ny’s passage from Chagres, Our despatch also informed us that the steamebip Obio sailed on the previous afternoon for New York; that rhe met the Faloon in the river, and took from her the Northern mail and fifiy-nine passengers for this city. The Faleon was to lave New Orleans yesterday, the 6th inst, for Chagres ‘The probability is, thatthe Faleon has brought one month later intelligence from California, and that the news was despatehed over the wires; but as the line south of Washington fs not “ worked” oa Sundays, we have pot received anything additional tothat published in the Herald of yesterday The Falcon railed from Chagres on the 30th ult, of Ast inst., and the steamship Panama probably arrived from San Francisco, at Pasama, about the 23d ult, with intelligence from California to the let of Septem? ber, or perhaps aday or two after, which is one month jater, The Ofty-nive passengers and the mails traus* Jerred to the Ohio, were probably mostly from San Frai 5 We will give the news the moment we receive it in ‘an authentic rhap Important from Yucatan. New Oxceans, October 5, 1849. We have advices from Campechy to the 25th of Sep, tember. The report is confirmed that dissensions ha cecurred among the chiets of the insurgent Indian and it is now expected that this war of races in the peninsula of Yucatan will be brought to a close, by the quiet submission of the Indians to the whites, Olty Politics Tur Surnirratty—The democratic race for the Sheriffalty, the most interesting event at presen? in our city politics, is yet to be seen There were so many heats and false starts on Friday evening, that tt became too late to finish the race, and it was accordingly post- ponrd till another day, We presume all tue nag tered will mot come to the stand on Wedavcada: heth OOF UOb, the coutest will be betweer tt, Cornell, Orser, aud Hatield.- and he rect,will be“no where” Indeed, we might oarrow cocked hat of a brigadier general was refused him | it to three. or even two Pach of the four evmpeativora officers has adjourned to Wednesday evening, } when it is supposed they will finish their la | bors, and place before the democratic voters af | New York candidates for the offices of coroner, | by Col. Polk. But in this instance, disappointment and insulted expectation have only sharpened his admiration of the Cabinet. There must be an an- eounty clerk, and sheriff. The whigs have not yet made their nominations; they are holding back, we believe, to see what men their opponents will select. The contest promises to be very spifited and exciting. It this year do not witness the last of the system of nominating candidates, which hus been so long weed by both parties, it certainly ought. The soon- er itis abolished, the better it will be for both parties, and the community at large. Money, and pot merit, 1s the influence whish eoatrols the selection of candidates for public offices at pre- sent, among al! parties ; and the consequence is, thet in many cases candidates are placed before the eommunity for offices of emolument, whe are utterly unfit to.discharge the duties pertaining to them. How can it be otherwise, under the pre- sept system of party machinery? For the mformation and edification of the honest Banrece of Loth parties—those who do not attend Primary meetings, and know nothing of caucassing —who Cischarge their duty to their cowatry and their party, by voting, onthe day of election, tor such candidates as ure selected for them by the wire pullere—we shall give a little insight into the manner in which candidates are nominated. Le us, for instance, take the case of un office which is worth five or ten thousand dollars a year, and in connection with which three or four. or half a dozen persons, are mentioned as being likely to be mominated. Each of the aspirants is of course desirous of serving his country by filling the office am question ; but to secure the support of his owa ward in the primary meetiag, which is aa indie penstble thing, he must pay very liberally a set of bullies, who will tke care, if they are rewarded sufficiently, that none but delegates in his favor are Teturned. In many cases, the men thus paid be- come delegates themselves, and thea a fresh bar- gain ismade. On paying a certain eum, they agree to vote in convention for the caadidate from whom they receive the money. The delegates frem the wards in which the other candidates re- mde, do the same. Atier voting once in favor of their respective candidates the bargain is finished, and another is made between the partizans of the Most prominert men. A, being a pretty streng man Inthe convention, will give a certain suin to the sup- porters of B, if they will rally around him and support him. The bargai dition to his forces, he can’t get the nomination. C, a third candidate, will then offer the adherents of And B eo much for their support. The sum uw of cour id he is put in | “Ct. pears Per meyewer ee ray <p | inthe prairies, reinforcements were received from nomination, but with the like result. D then pays 3 by bei able t r up, end taheohhia chanee) bus nerbeing A keke | collected in the States, and the disciples epeedily | very liberally, he is merely trifled with. first candidate, has money enough, he will then make another bargain, and agree to pay so much 10 the supporters of B, C and D, if they will sas- tain him. The money is accepted; but B may | offer more than A. If he does, it is accepted. Again, C may offer more than the other two; af he does, it 8 accepted ; and thus it goes on te the end of the chapter, until all the candi dates are respectively black mailed four or five | times, and thoroughly depleted of their funds ; and the candidate who has bled the mon freely, finally gets the nomination, besides, in addition to paying a large sum of money, being obliged to bind himselt to give the half-a-dozen minor offices in his gift, to some two or three hun- dred of those who brought about his nomination in this disintereeted way. All of the proceedings which we have referred to, do not take place in one night. The nomimating convention, whig or democratic, adyourns occasionally, to give the candidates an opportunity to raise funds, and to band in proposals; but no one gets the nomina~ tuon fora lucrative office without bleeding very freely. The above is but a sketch of the manner im which nominations are brought about this city ; but if we were to write three columns, it would end in nothing more than what we wish to impress upon the community—that only the riches, map, or, rather, he who bleeds the most freely, can get a nommation for an office of emolument, ac- cording to the manner in which things are con- ducted at present Row, these evila could be remedied if the re- | spectable portions of the two parties would attend the primaty meetings, and take care that rowdyiem 4 bullyiem did not triumph ; but they will not do so. They will not encounter the rush—will not meet cheek by jowl with gamblers, blacklegs aad roffiane—ond hence, we evy that the nomination of candidates 1 60 coruptly managed that the sooner the present system is abolished the better It has become disgracefully corrupt, and ought to be abandoned. Let us have the Seuthern eystem. Let every man who desires on oifice, put himselfin nomination, and stump the city if he pleases, If we have twenty candidates in the field for each offce, eo much the better. Any plan would be preferable to what now exists. It may be prema- ture to urge this change at the election which will take place in November ; but inasmuch as the villany end corruption which we have sketched (and only sketched, for we could fill our sheet with further allusteations,) do exiet—and we defy any ene nequaymied with party tactics to deny what we have etated—let our catizene, as far as our muni- | effiecs ere concerred, discriminate gad vote, a chor to windward. Experience teaches patience. Something good hes been promised, or may be expected. The omission may yet secome a mia sion. Besides, toa man who has uo alternutive, a fat office ora flat refusal are all the same. A | fat office is a good thing—the mission to Spaia was worth having; but continued good services fora flat refueal are the highest evidence of pure philan- throphy end disinterested patriotism. “And far more joy the Colonel surely feels ‘Than would he with the Senate at his heels.” And yet the devotion of the Wall street whig or- gan, to Gen. Taylor and the Cabinet, savors more of the “sour grapes” than honest indignation, What possible object is to be gained —what lesson of decency is to be taught, in the use and abuse of such terms as Col. Webb employs against that poor eld man, Father Ritchie? In a recent article of the Courier, the very pink of purty decency, we find such epithets and expletives as these—“F luent falsehood, eckless contum ism,” “denizen of Billingsgate,” ‘professional bully,” “befouling every persou,” “baseness and mahee,” “forgery, falsehood and fraud,” &e. “Our men swore terribly in Flinders,” but they were stinted in grog and rations. There is no ; excuse for the ex-candidate for Spain. Though not yet in office, he is etull in the church. He is exumole is bad. It onght to be stoned Washington to Wall street, from the central or- gans to their provincial echoes, needs reform. It wants facts, informution, testimony, enterprise, for it is only enterprising im the party slang of the day. Father Ritchie 1s getting oblivious, bat he hasa young bived of ciaggine who promise tobe worthy | oftheir teeeher. Col. Webb is arriving at the age of discretion; bat he is too old to learn in Wall yet continue, mine it. The evil, in time, willeure itself. rable when they ettemyt to setup a standard of meraliy.

But a few years ago, the exact location of the lake ond the valley were unknown. Situated ia the northeastern corner of the great basin, be- tween the latundes of ferty-one and forty-two, half-way from the outposts of the Mississippi val- ley to the Pacific, the Mormon colony is in a po- sition peculiarly advantageous to its prosperity.

The Mormon colony us, therefore, the half-way resting house between the mountains on the eset and the desert on the west.

Unfortunately for the prosperity of outside operators, generally, they are more dixpored to purchase at high than low prices They usually come into the market when it ia inflated by rome speculative exeltement, and the brokers, as sure as they live, saddle them with large quantitic,, wake every effort to deproas prices, and compel holders to sell their stocks at eurrent prices, It is more favorable for the brokers for outsiders to make their purchases on time, as it does not relieve the market of the supply of stock pressing upon it, and ives them a better opporcunity to depress prices, whom the proper time arrives If outsiders are foolish enougtt to purchase fancy stocks wt present prices, oreven at Prices fifteen and twenty per cent below those oarrent, it would be well for them to do no for cash, aud take the stock outof the market, By #0 doing, they redaee’the supply, aud are not so much in the power ef the street speculators, ‘The money market rem: viously quoted; bat from the increasing supply of bust ness paper in the street, the impression fa that we shall soon b ® better demand, Susiness paper having four and six months to run ia easily negotiated at 6a per cent, while loans on call, upon the best stoek Seow, rities, are made at 4 per cent.
