Funds abstracted, as ascertal Specie on hand, Dec, 31, 1849. ... ‘This is ajgmost extraordinary method of accounting Tor lost funds, and must be particularly satisfactory to ‘the stockhol: as they have no doubt been under the impression that the bank had lost the amount of money abstracted. The suit recently instituted against a former officer of the bank exonerated him from the eharge; and as no evidence has been obtained of the whereabouts of the money, or the method of embzzale- ment, there is very little probability of its ever being Yeeovered. It is, however, considered by the manage- ment as being in hand, and is called in the report so much specie. The loss is, therefore, merely imaginary; end, after @ time, we have no doubt the stockholders ‘will be made to believe that the embezzlement and the yecent trial im St. Louis, were all humbug.

Il have in a former letter given you an inkling of the manner in which Mr. Clayton is playing bis cards to subserve his individual interests. Asanother instance, I can inform you that he has adopted the most rigid regulations to prevent information reaching the public, except such as he thinks will serve his purposes. Tesuch an extent is this carried, that gentlemen calling on the clerks to transact business, have been informed by the clerk, when he bad occasion to leave the office, to step into another room—that the order was that no one could remain in the room during the absence of the clerks. Accordingly gentiemen of the first ta bility have ‘poem ebligea to retire while the eler! absent, and not until he returned again were they al- lowed to enter and resume their business No insult like this bas ever before been offered to citizens of the United States, under any previous Secretary of State, nor have gentlemen ever before been suspected of purloining papers from the State Department. But notwithstanding all the restrictions and regulations of Mr. Clayton, some light will ocee- sionally shed its rays over the bis ebarseter Will be delineated with accuracy at the west political contest. You recollect that within a short time, at- tacks of « very gross, character have been been made mn Mr. Hani |. OUF Tepresentative at Berlin. by whig or; in different parts of the country.
