The office holders, in the organization of the Union party, will, of course, be Union men, every man of them. Ifthe Union democrats, therefore, join the Union whigs, ia a ing their candidates? The.rnew platform involv ea a compact with the office holders, by which "ney will remain in possession of the spoils; ar.d the outside democrats will remain non est. This has has been a potential drawback to the ol?. line de- moeracy, especially when they have the possibility before them of electing a man of their. own by the | House of Representatives. Hence the official an- | nouncement by the Washington Uv.zon, in behalf | of the demoer: conservatives, @4 their repudia- tion of the Union party, a Nationg.] Union Conven- tion, and a National Union ticke: for 1852, But this does not decide the question. It only postpones the Union organization for the time be- ing. The elements of dissslection to the Union are still active North, and South.

Without a junction, they are in a minority in both sections; united, Shey can overwhelm ail the elements of agitation, Bullification, aboliiion, and secession, from Canada te the Gulf of Mexico How, then, has this project failed? Why is the movement suppressed ! The apologies of Father *Ritchie—the explanstory letter of Gen. Foote, in the Washington Union—are quite enfficient to satisfy any reader of the smallest discerament, that the movement had commenced—that a convention ‘gt Washington was intended to give it shape and organization. Why, then, all this fluttering, this shyness and equivocation of the politicrans? Why be the national Uaion repudiated by Father Ritchie, im hehaif the democratic party! The time haa ao, yet come. The occasion isnot ripe. Itisa ticklish business. The politicians are shy. There is a0 elling how it is to affect them; or who is to love @s who to win.

On the other hand, the Nashbille Con- | ventionand other co-operative movements all over | the South, have utterly broken up the old party | | lines and platforms in that section, and have ren- | | dered either whigs or democrats incapable of ac- complishing anything, unless combined against the | ultras in ageneral election. But, again: A Unioa party hes been formally organized in Georgia. The | body of the whig party, and many of the democratic, | | comprise the materials of this orgasization. Mr. | Cobb, Speaker of the House of Representatives, is | | identified with it. He has been appointed a dele- | | gate to the Naiionel Union Convention, which | | Father Ritchie has repudiated. Again General | Foote, who has won a wide reputation as a devot- | ed friend of the Union, has boldly committed him- self to the prospects and fortunes of this Union par- ty. Where are these gentlemen to go, if the old whig and democratic rieketty platforms are to be maintained! Whatis to become of Georgia, of Mississippi, and of Alabama? Are they to be aban- doned to the ultras? Aad is Maseachusetts, is New York, is Vermont, is Onio to be turned over to the uullitiers?’ Something must be done. The elements for a Union party still exist—there does not, however, appear to be any immediate ne~ cessity for it. There is no pressing occasion upon which it could act. Besides, the democrats coafi- dently count upon a large majority in the House in the next Congress, so that if they failin a scrub | race, they have stil! the odds in their favor. More- o a juaction with the whigs involves the sacri- | | pray, like St. Paul, without ceasimg; and all wil) come out right. The popular mind is sound in the regate—the Union is strong.

ASHER TAYLOR, First Marshal, Police Intelligence. Arrest of a Suspected Forger.— Bor some few weeks past a number of forged promissory notes have beea placed in civeulation, purporting to be drawn by mer- chants in this and other cities, and offered for sale. ‘The first intimation given of the existence of these | forgeries, which amount to reveral thousand dollars, was the receipt of a letter, dated December 30, 1850, trom Jan . Kuffen, of Cincinnati, setting forth the fact that a number of forged notes had besa offered, amounting to $5.000-two of which are alleged to be | drawn by Kennett & MeKee, one on Smith & Nixon, | and one on Keys, Mattly & Co.—all of which are pro- nounced forgeries. These notes were sent to a Mr. Wa. B. Casailly, of Cincinnati, tos sale, with a letter representing @ firm called W. Terry & Co, Vu the re- ceipt of this information, officer A. MC. Smith took the business in hand, in order to arvest,if possible, the guilty werty. Accordingly, mesus were taken, and a watch kept at the Post Office, forthe BREpOHs. of ar- resting any perron who should poly tor letters di- rected to Wm. Terry & Co On fharsday, a genteel looking young man, calling himself George Pegott, ap- lied at the Lost Oillce tor letters directed to Wa. ‘erry & Co. The letters, two in number, were there- upon han to Pegott, and the officer being near at hand took him into custody, on suspicion of being the torger. as the letters were sent ma Cincinnati with the express view of causing his arrest on the c! e of forging the notes in question. Since the arrest of the accused. it has been ascertained an attempt was made to sell a forged note on Robt.

Niles and Nathaniel W. who were convicted at the last term for obtaining $: by false pretences from Mr. Henry Havens. Judge announced, that from information which he had re- ceived, he Was warranted in announcing that Niles and Roberts would not be sentenced uatil Monda: next. A great deal of disappointment was manifos by the audience, who retired, after making all sorts of inquiries as to the reason of this postponement, No reason was assigned for the delay. Since the adjournment of the court, we learn that the bill of exceptions, which Is very voluminous, had not been completed, in time for the proper examination of it, to be made by the Recorder, untila late hour his morning. Recorder Talmadge retused to grant a of proceedings. and announced, that unless such ay were predus by Monday morning, the court would proceed to judgment, Counsel for the prisoners will probably apply to the judges of the Supreme Court, unless the stay of proceedings which the Ite. corder refused should be granted by one of them. The court will pass sentence ou Monday “ of Well street Thief—A young man, named James Jobnson, not more than 18 or 19 years of age, was ar- raigued for stealing a package of bank notes, amount- ing to $1,059, from the office of Houghien & Go., No. 63 Wall street, on the 27th of December last. It appears that Johnson went into the office and asked to small note changed, and while the clerk was in th of counting out bis money, the young thief seized a package containing the above amount, and made bis escape with it into the street. The clerk, however, pursued and overtook him, recovered t! y, and delivered Johnson into the hands of of a similar nature, District Attorney in the way of recovering a = amount of the money which he had thus ebtained, He pleaded guilty to the larceny committed at Houghton & Co.'s, butin con- sideration of the information given by him to the authorities, he was sentenced to the State prison for only two years and six months.

MOUEY MABKET Farpar, Jan -6 P.M. ‘The stook market opened more bucy@At this moru- ing, and the transactions were very extensive, All the leading fancies were active, and buyers appeared to be just as much excited as at any time this year. At the first board, rie Railroad advanced % per cent; Farmers’ Loan, 34; Morris Canal, 34; Canton Com- pany, 2; Erie Railroad, 1/4; Harlem, 1'¢; Norwich and Worcester, 1; @temington, 1; Portsmeuth Dry Dock, ¥; Hudson River Railroad declined ‘4 per cent; Long Island, \{. At the second beard, Farmers’ Loan went up 1 per cent; Morris Canal, 4; Harlem, 34; Ports- mouth Dry Dock, 44; Stonington Railroad, fell off 1¢ percent, The market closed firm, with an upward tendency in prices. Reading Railroad was quoted to-day, dividend of six percent off. The decline was not equal to the dividend. There were large pur- chasers, dividend off, and it isthe impression among large holders that it will soon recover all the dividend, and roll in less than thirty days, full as high as with di- vidend on. ‘There was considerable activity to-day, in Government and State stocks, and better prices were realized. Portsmouth Dry Dock was in demand, afd the advance in prices was considerable, The sales of Morris Canal were large, and went up from the open- ing. Norwich and Worcester has recovered nearly all the depreciation since the dividend. Hudson River Railroad fell off to-day, notwithstanding the general rise inthe market. Erie Railroad has not been very active during the past three or four days, and prices are moved up with the greatest dificulty. During the past month, Texas securities have been very inactive. The mewsage of the Governor hada tendency to depress prices, and the demand has since been trifing. Holders have put large lots ow the mar- ket, but there were no purchasers but the brokers, Treasury notes, on which the State received twenty- five cents on the dollar, are selling at 20 to 40 per cent.
