GENCE BY THE MAILS. ashington Correspondence. oe Wasuivaton, April 14, 1859, Whe President and the Cabinei—The Formation, Exploite, and Forthcoming Dissolution of the Cabinet, $o., Go. ‘A long cabinet meeting was held yosterday. Some @f the members seomed much excited and irritated @fter its adjournment. General Taylor's sentiments in regard to the con- uct of those of his cabinet offeers who havo been Diceding the treasury to exhaustion, by re-opening ld, rejected, or settled claims against the government, nd paying thom, intorest and principal, may bo beat @ecertained by the conversation of some of his inti- mate friends, who have seen and conversed with him ©n the subject. From these gontlemen I learn that ‘@he old hero is fully aroused, and very indigaant on @he subject. He bas been most grossly imposed upon wand deceived; and they who have dono it are bound to guller therefor. Pervonally, he had never seen ono of the men whe compose his cabinet prior to his arrival in this oity, efter his clection to the Presidency. The cabinet was made up inahurry. Malign influences were at work, @nd prevailed, to place mon in the cabinet who mever ought to have been put there, and to keep obhora Out who should have been appointed. During almost ll the short session of Congress, Mr. Thomas Mwing ‘was the most industrious and obsequious office beggar, who bung about members of Congress and paid court €o those who, it was sup) , would have influences swith the incoming Presidont, to be seen anywhere. Nobody, scarcely. wanted him to get » place in the cabinet, It was believed that he would have jumped ‘to have accepted an Auditorship, such was his earnest hankering for a re-taste of office. Abbott Lawrence or John Davis should have been Beorctary of the Treasury, and T. Butler King Secreta- xy of the Navy. } But Mr. Toombs, of Georgia, that man of marked Aidelity to the whig party aud to whig principles, aad @ few others acting with him. resolved that Mr. Craw- ord, and not Mr. King, should have a seat in the esbi- Met. avd the point was carried. Next, as Mr. Vinton of Obio bad been pamed for Secretary of the Treasury, @nd had strong friends to back him, Mossrs. Toombs @nd company went to work to defeat that movo, as Mr. Winton was too much of a Northern man and tariff gman to suit their views. ‘They took up Mr. Kwing, and ereod him, all ready, greedy and pliable at their Bras for the Post Office Department. They did not derive bis appointment, but urged bim as @ means of eheck-mating Vinton of the same State. They succeed- ed. General Taylor got hia buck up and xent Gov. Wance, or Judge Burnett, to Mr. Ewing to inform him Bhat he had been selected for Postmaster General and Bhould be appointed. The recipient of the nows was olighicd. He was in eostasies, and that night, at the Yeception at the White House, he squecacd many a and and joyfully exclaimed, * I am Postmaster Gene- rel!” Afierwards he was arranged into the Department ©f the Interior, where he has dixplayed “the insolence ©f office,” in manners the mort swinish, to his hear wontent, indulged in nepoti«m and Neroiam up to the fhandle, re-opened and allowed and paid old. rejected ‘olaims, to an untold amount, made the treasury blood deeply, tampered and trifled with the honor, honesty fend house-rent of John Douglass Jr., a worthy citizen @nd a truthful man, and drvamed dreams of being yet elected President by the free-soil vote of Ohio snd the great Northwest! Such is Thomas Ewing. of the Interior Department— @coarse, able. ill-mannered man. Me has provoked President Taylor, and has been charged with grave @isdemeanors by the reaponsible editors of the Union gewspaper, by John Douglass, Jr.. and by others, Will ‘The ack for a commitice of Congress to investigate his conduct? Will he voluntarily resign his post? Neither, He will hold on and stick to office. and keep his sons, ourins. and other kin in, wntil he ix ordered out, or pent adrift by some more emphatic and appropriate *. ®lication, But go he must aud will.

His chief clerk of course goes with hiin The appointment of this latter officer by Mr. Craw- ford to ro high and responsible a post, has been more complained of by General Taylor's leading and intimate personal friends than has been the recont appoiacment, Abrough the same influence, (‘hough atiribuied by th Gnfluence, in a letter to the editor of @ little weakly evening paper in New York. to Mr. Clayton.) of Captain Meaiah Kyuders, at the very moment he was cursing General Taylor as an ~ old liar,’ as bearer of despatchos Bo Mexico.” In thiv connection I refer you to an edi- Zorial in the Kepublic of Friday.in which tho editors Speak with a meaning, of a rumor that, at the Galphin Dill pacred the louse. there were cards shufiled at the Clerk's desk.
