OUR HOME CORRESPONDENCE. Wasbington, Wasui.avon, April 23, 1851. Nepotism in the Cabinet. John J. Crittenden, at present Attorney Genoral of the United States. is spoken of asa candidate either for the Presidency or Vice Presidency. It is possible he might make « very good President; but before he can have any claims for such an office, he ‘Must correct a few faults which are at presentseme- what glaring. The ove which I desire to refor to, to-day, is that of nepotism There is no man in this Cabinet, or any other, that I can remember, ‘who has carried this prs ctice of getting his relatives into office to the same ex‘ent as Mr. Crittenden. ‘To eay nothing of minor offices, the following list gives some idea of it:— if J. J. Crittenden, Attorney General; salary 000, and for revising opinion of Solicitor of ‘Treasury, 500 His son, Consul at Liverpool. the most lucrative Office in gift of the k verument. His brother-in law, ‘udge Thornton, Commis- sioner to adjust California ‘and titles, $6,000 a year. His brother-in-law, Judge bibb, clerkship ia S>- Visitor General’s office, created for him; and a ‘western importation by the name of Burnley, who marripd a daughter of sibb’s, and was placed in the ic office, to get a share of the pap which that organ exists upou It is very well for the rank aad file of the whi Rarty to work, aad elect big men to fill the Prost ney, but they must not expect to derive any of the benefits. @ members of the Cabinet have enerally too many needy relatives to attend to, to able to give to men of talent and industry, who have beon the means of placing them in office, any share of the patronage a Albany.

Nominations of City Cundidates—Declension of the Whig Candidate for Mavor—The Emigran Runners Preparing for the tlection, &c., §e Yesterday the whigs of this city presented their Gandidates for local offices. The delegates having been selected in reference to a particular candidate for Recorder, though contested somewhat sharply in some of the wards, carried out the wishes of thos whom they represented Friend Humphrey, Esq., ‘Was nominated for Mayor by acclamation. Heisa ‘Very popular man, and would have given his oppo- nent @ close chase, if not beaten him. He has held the office once or twixe before, and gave quite geno- Tal satisfaction, although he lacked that energy which a mayor of this wicked and mischievous city should have: The nominee for Recorder is L. Bene- ict, jr , son of the late Postmaster, whom Mr. Fill- moredischarged from offive because he was a toel of Seward. Young Benedict was elected Surrogate some three years since, and his time expires on the Grst of January. He had his particular reasons for not wishing te become a candidate again for his pro- sent office. He, therefore. by the aid of the anti- administration portion of the whigs, is now on the course for Recorder. ‘The silver grays keep mum. This morning, Mr. Hamphrey appeared with a cardin the papers, peremptorily declining to be a candidate, stating that he so informed those who waited upon him preriees to the holding of tne con- vention, and he should adhere to that determina- tion. This has caused much excitement and great disappointment, as the wnigs knew that the use of his name would add great strength to their ticket, and might be the means of electing it. By his de- clension they are at sea again. Several other Dames are mentioned, but as yet no one seems will- ing to take the nomination, contribute a thousand doliars or 80, when their chances are not more than even. It is not probable tha: a candidate will bo aareed upon before Monday or Tuesday. ¢ democrats made their nominations to-day. They selected as their candidate for Mayor, Eli Perry, the present incumbeat. During the time, since April last, that he has performed the duties of the office, he has been a vigilant chief ma- gistrate of this city. The citizens peowelly ap- yiend him for the ability and impartiality which he displayed. He has called down upon his head the vengeance of many gangs of canal runners. His course, in connection with that of Mayor Wads- Worth, of Buffalo, and Mayor Kingsland, of Now York, in endeavoring to break up the robberies of those villanous land sbarks, bas rendered him ue culiarly obnexious; and they are now organizing, it is said, in this city and Now York—forming them- ives into clubs, corresponding tirough the whole Hine of emigrant travel, and raising funds from for- warding merchants in their interest, to be spent in = city with the intention of defeating Mr. Perry's election. The democratic candidate for Recorder, Mr. M. A. Young, is a young man of good standing, and esses a host of friends, aad his acquaintances pledge bim qualified for the station. There is a wide difference in the morality and associations of the two candidates for Kecorder, which is about the only difference between them. They are both young men—rather so, for the station; but their ‘egal qualifications are about on a par with each other. Ifthe silver grays take an interest for the whig candidate, the race will be avery doubtful ono. The other nominations, worthy of notice, are the sandidates for police justices John O. aas held the oflice for many years, is sation by the democrats is ele stion is conceded, as be is as useful an officer here as Mr. Mataoll is in New York, for his long experience gives him a kno wien of ail the old offenders, and the strata- sm which they resort to, when ht in their predations upon the public. . Parsons, who sas been associated with Mr. Cole some three years, is in nominattion by the whigs Heisalsoa worthy officer. It is probable that the voters of shis city will retain t ervices of both. For Senator of this ict, the whi, tected Axor Taber, Esq as their candidate. possesses some qualities which will tend to push aim forward, and othors that will retard his pro- grovs to tho Senate chamber. He is an amiable nan, with the exception of being an anti-renter. de has been counsel for theni in reveral causes down n Delaware and Sullivan, and is the occupant of ome hundred or two acres of manor land. The whigs nominated him, knowing that the anti- tenters had a partiali:y for him. The democrats lave made no nomination for Senator, but are en- gaged in searching for a man who will neutralize the — vote between him and the whig can- didate. = have se- Boston. Bosrox, October 25, 1851. Affect of the Recent Democratic Vistories om the C» alition—The Several Cownties—The Fanewil Hall Medting—A New Coalition, §&¢, &c. Our political atmosphere is very like the physical atmosphere of some April day: at one moment it is dark enough to be mistaken for a period of eclipse, and ins short time the sun shines out so warmly as te almost roast one. There is an equal division of these clouds and this sunshine between both our parties, for the coalition is substantially one party ir all local matters. One day it looks very encour- aging for the whigs, but tho next day coalition stock is up. The wisest man is he who pays very lictle regard to either the growling of the disaffect- ed whigs, or the action of old lino democratic bolt- em. When the thing “comes up to the soratch,’ on the 10th of November, there will most likely be jess teratching of names on both sides than is gene- rally looked for. Still, it is undeniable, that, so far as the goneral remit is concerned, the position of the rue is better than it was; and this improve- ment— bo it temporary or otherwise—in whig pros- pects, is entirely owing to the recent democratic vietories in P Ivania and Ohio. ma: seem @ rather odd explanation of t! nevertholess the only reasonable iven. ery one will recollect how astonished was even thatacute man of the world, Mr. Samnel Weller, when ho was informed by the old cob- bler in the Fleet priron, that he had been ruined b; having money him. ee Mr. Weller been educated im the re, iniversity of ae under bridges, and on @ penny wo BR gy Ot in thie way: many men, coalition, #2. long not embarrass them as “national democrats,” are now convinced that their is destined to “sweep the count: Pe Pye no means desirous with a party which sent Mr. Sumner to the Senate. ‘They hat democratic ai 3 H election. The great national pear isto be ripe by November, 18562, and they expect to have nothii to do but to let it fail into their mouths, which are watering at the mere thought of such a fine specimen of fruit from the political garden. The idea which predominates in their mind is, that the groatest claim for consideration snd advanooment, under the next administration, will be the fact ofa man’s opposition t» ail opponents of the compromises; and they are desirous of proving that they were the créme de la créme of compromisers in Massa- chusetts. ‘They will find it rather a dificult matter te establish their purity, for it so happens that among them were men who had tried ha: oe on the Senatorial tickets, both last year and this ear, before it was known that Pennsylvania and hio had been “‘ doubling up” the whigs of those States. Others have been applicants for State offices under the present administration, and were disappointed. [t will be rather awkward if their protestations of loyalty to the Fugitive Slave law should come to be contrasted with their support of the men who aided in the election of Mr. Sumner. The coalition democrats, while they do not—and indeed, they cannot—affect to fone: the importance ef the action of their “national” brethren, are still ready with 4 reply to them. They say that it is folly to suppose that the next democratic adminis- tration will trouble itself about what men have done in Massaehuset‘s. In politics, they say, there is no such thing as a past, but there isa present, acd a future. The question that great party leaders ask is, not what have you done, but, what can you do? Gratitude has boen defined as being **a lively sense of favors to come,” aad this defini- tion is particularly saplioarie $0 political gratitude, which never loeks backward, but has a mighty powerful gaze ahead. The idea that Mr. Douglas, or any other prominent democrat who may be elected President, should trouble himself about the opinions which Mr. Snooks oz Mr. Slow, of Majsa- usetts, held in 1851, concerning the coalition, is thought to be rather rich. residents of the United States are more concerned about what is to happen, than what has happened; and charity to ward erring brethren, provided always that their position is the es one at the time being, is a prominent virtue in the statesman who has some- thing to accomplish. The coalition democrats also say, that if the rule is to be set up that all who have taken part in breaking down the whigs are to be proscribed because they are not ready to swear by St. George (Lunt), it may happen that there will be no democratic President to proscribe or ap- oint any one; for there are barnburners rag in ew York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio, to say nothing of other States, who have no relish for being put under the political harrow. What occurred in 1548 may occur again, and the intended proscriber may make wi beaw matin, and find himeslf the chief of the proscribed. As against Genoral Scott, in particular, they say that a divided democratic party can bave no hope of saccess. If they are re- minded that the recent defeats of the whigs were defeats of the Scott party in particular, and that the whig party is now every where down, they promptly reply, that the whig party is not more prostrate now than it was twelve years ago thi time. In the autumn of 1839, it seomed as if the whig party was dead and buried. It had been beaten in all quarters, and in Massachusetts it had to drink of the M: cup of humiliation—the democratic party electing Judge Morton, Gover- nor. Mr. Van Buren’s reelection, the next year, seemed to be a mere matter of course. Yet, this state of things was on the very eve of a mighty po- litical struggle, in which the democratis party sus- tained the greatest defeat that ever befel any Party in the world’s history—a defeat in which bot! President and party were overthrown in a way that astonished even the victors themselves. 1s it not possible that all this y happen agains, and that the laughter and ridioule which ara directed against General Scott may turn out as bitter jests as those which had General Harrison for their object? if you notice the coalition papers, you must have been struck with the difference that there is be- tween them in one important respect. You cannot find in the democratic papers any notices of meet- ings; in the free soil Ly ani you will find them by the score. The only democrat of note who his been advertised to ak, thus far, is Mr. Banks; while the free soilers have in the field Messrs. Mann, Wilson, Burlingame, Russell, Keyes, Weston, Allen, and half a dozen others. The whole work of the aign, on the coalition: side, is done by the freegsoilers. Perhaps the most correct state- ment of the present condition of the contest would be to say, that the fate of the State isin the hands of the free seil party. If that party's vote shall be out in anything like an approach to its full num- ber, the coalition will be successful; if it shall not. thenwe shall have a whig restoration. The free soil vote of 1848 was upwards of 38,000. Since that time, it has never polled quite 28,000 votes; but the whig vote has not, on any occasion since 1313, been increased; aad the democratic vote but once, aud then not largely. The inference would seem to be a fair one, that tho freo soil party here is as strong as it ever was, and that it has only to got out its voters to place Mr. Palfrey hard alongside of Go vernor Boutwell» If they accomplish anything in proportion to their labors, their candidate ought t be eee ofthe democratic—but that is not to b expected. ‘There is to be a convention in Essex county, to getup a hunker Senatorial ticket in the chirty- eighth, if 1 am rightly informed. The mover in the affair is Mr. Lord, junior counsel imthe Fugi- tive Slave rescue cases. The whigs hope much from it, but the coalitionists declare that it will no: make, at tho most, a difference of abeve 300 votes. They had a majority in Essex, of 718 last year, over the whig and scattering vote. They calcwate upon 1,000 increase this year, which will be almost, if not quite, equalled by the increase of the whig vote, it is reasonable to suppose. There will bea close shave in L:ssex, from present appearances; and yet itis the battle ground of the campaign, now tbat Norfolk has been lost to the coali- tion, as it is held to be, by most observers of the world of politics; and that Hamp- den is in the same condition, except that that county never elected coalition Sonators, though much stronger in the popular vote against the whigs than even Norfolk was. ‘Thecoalitionists seem dis- poscd, in the main, to take the Norfolk affair very paiesonmieslly. If, say they, there had been no mee) in that county, it is certain that enough of the bolters, headed by Bradford, Stetson and Co., would have availed themselves of the secret vote law to support the whig candidates for Senators, and Probably bave elected the whole whig ticket ; but as it is, having a ticket of their own in the field, the boiters were bound in honor and interest vo got as lege @ vote for it as possible. ‘This is drawing sunshine from clouds in a very edifying manne: but I am far from being convinced t the idea is wellfounded. If the gentlemen who head the bolt- ers are really in earnest in their desire to defeat the coalition, because re; g its success as a much greater ovil than the return of the yo to power, and seeing in the latter event the only means of preventing the occurrence of that much greater evil, why should they not support the whig candi- dates on the day of election, and thus do some' ing. and that not a little, toward replacing the whigs in not powor ? ould be at su d if their votes were mostly given to the wi Senatorial candidates. There is # story in circulation which should seem to confirm this view of the mat- It is enid that Mr. Winthrop was approach- whether by one of their own namber, or avnig their behalf, it isnot said—in thoname the Norfolk bolters, to soe what he woul do in return should their movements result in m: lence, he wished for no of- at the price of dishonor.

It will not, however, be a political con- test—that is, one between whigs and demoorats—for the latter cannot do anything here. As an organi- zation, they are the mere shadow of wha: the once were. What do you think of a democratic vote ef 297 in a city containing a population of 140,000? Yet this nanny comarres: ata congressional election in 1860. At last State election, the democratic and free soil votes, united, were not one 8,000, though in the county—which includes helsea, and North Chelsea, as wel! as Boston—it was about 3,500. It is Ae d that it will reach ,000. tat mocrats of Chelsea and North Chelsea are dissaiis- fied; because of the Suffolk demooratis senatorial ticket not containing one of their number, though they give a much larger democratic vote than Bos- ton, the difference of p: Jr ome pve considered. The subject of the Presidency naturally attracts considerable attention, new that tw States as Ohio and Pennsylvania bh: poken out. Cass stock can be quoted here @ respectable figure, but Mr. Douglas has many supporters among the democrats. The idea of ing Buchanan, is laughed at. It is not believed that he would carry the Pennsylvania vote, unless the Dallas men could be coaxed into his support. It is supposed that Col. Bigler owes his election to the compromise whigs having voted for him, “ by and with the advice and consent”’ of Mr. Webster. The charge of having defeated Gov. Johnston, preferred against Mr. Web- ster. from Harrisburgh, is not de nied by his papers or friends here, but whether because they deem it to be ridiculous, or that it is true, | am not suflici- ently in their confidence to say. T only know that good Webster whigs have spoken very contemptu- eusly of Johnston, but | should infer from what they have lately said, that they care more about the implied defeat of Scott in Ponnsylvania, than apything else. In New-Hampshire, the demozrats are said to be about to meve in favor of the nomi nation of Gen. Butler, headed by Gen. Pierce, who himself served so seleady in the Mexican war. The democracy might make a much worse selection General Butler, in point of talent as well as o! bility; and it is within the bounds of possi- he will be nominated. to hi new coalition here, or perhaps I should say that one has already been formed. is a whig coalition, the whiga having resolved t» <come together, to boat the other coalition, if they can. You know that between the Webster whigs and the Dba whigs, there has for some time past existed a gulf great, apparently, and as impas- tablo,as that which separated Dives from Lazarus, and converted the former into an exclusive of a sort not tobe envied. Ido not think that I overstate the case, when I say, that were the contest now going on in this State, one between the whigs and the old democracy, Mr. Webster and his friends would probably throw their weight into the democratic side, and help to make Mr. Boutwell Governor a second time. But, mach as Mr. Webster dislikes the Winthrop party, aud little as ho respects its chief or desires his success, he hates the free soilers more, and has no respoot tt allforthem. As between Robert C. Wiathrop acd Horace Mann, he cannot help choosing for the former. Mr. Webster and Mr. Mann were both free coilers in 1848, andthe former was the most decided for the new determination of the two—Mr. Mann being cvol and cautious, while Mr. Webster approved, in plain language, of those early move- ments, under the direction of General Wilsoi Judge Allen, Mr. Sumner, and other distinguisho whigs, who were op) d to (+eneral Taylor's nomi- nation, which called the free soil party of New England into existence. He is now the opponent of that party, and its greatest opponent. The triumph of the coalition will bo the triumph of his enemies—of Mr. Mann, of Mr. Allen, of General Wilson, as well as of those democrats who feel to- wards him only the erdinary hostility of political be acon that, in some cases, indeed, being very unlike hostility of any kind. He is not anxious for Mr. Winthrop’s advancement, but he is desirous as man can beto put oh to the free soil triumphs that have occurred threaten to ocour in this Stat This sentiment being known to the whigs of the other side, pacific overtures came from thom, and were responded to by the Webster mon in a similar spirit. There is to be a union of the whigs, at least for the time being, in Massachusetts. 8 coalition must be routed; and, therefore, another coalition, containing elements as discordant as those which enter inte the former, has been made; and gentlemen who have been frowning upon cach other ever since the first reports of the 7th of March speech reached here, aré now upon the best possible terms. There is to be no more fighting in the whig ranks until after the election. This ao counts for the sudden change of tone o the part of some of the whig papers, an! also for the action of somo eminent whig h powerful speakers, who bave just consented t» come out and speak, though hitherto they had refused to do anything of the kind. Mr. ‘ebster, however, doee not seem inclined to be very active in behalf of bis friend Winthrop ; for when, last evening, he was ed by the young whigs, on their return from Salem, ho would not say a werd, in his response, about State matters. is speech, which you will find in the Journal of this morning, is de- voted to the Union, and is as mush a democratic asa whig speech. Heo dwelt with emphasis on the necessity of supporting measures which Mr. Win- throp voted against, and which he would be glad to see repealed. But Mr. Wobster’s fiends, who have little confidence in his future political for- tunes, are about, from present appearances, to pat their shoulders to the whig wheel, whether Her- cules himself shall help them or not, and seo if they cannot get the old cart fairly out of the slough in which it is now sticking. But for his dislike of the free soilers, Hercules would curse their conduct. ALGoma. Manchester. Mancuestea, N. H., Oot. 23, 1851. The Centeanial Anniversary of Manchester. The centennial anniversary cf the settlement of the old town of Derryfiold, now the city of Man- chester, was celebrated yesterday with great éclut. ‘The main exercises were an address by Rev. C. W. Wallace, of Manchester, anda poem by William Stark, Esq., of Troy, N. Y., (a native of Manches ter, and a grandson of Gen. John Stark, who had his residence at that place ) Mr. Wallace's address was highly worthy of the occasion, giving a vivid and glowing description of things, as they were “long time ago,” and a most excellent delineation of the contrast betweon the manufacturing facilitics of the past and the present. He stated that nearly every miil in Manchesternow manufactured thirty miles of cloth per day. Mr. Stark’s poem was acknowledged, by all, to be one of most surpassing brilliancy and gates. It possessed all varieties of style—the grave, the gay, the complimentary, t} jirical. His dee cr:ptions cf scenery, and of the changes which have occurred in this vicinity, w much admired.

The Election. (From the Chasleston Palmetto Fiag, Oct. 22.) As there is sppenentl ® varioty of opinion as to the effect of the late election upon the action of the State, we briefly state the real and legitimate consequences. This election was voluntarily made a test of strength by both parties throughout the State. The mutual object was to develope public opinion. The sentiment declared by this means must unquestionably influence both the Lagenatte and the Convention. Tne very formidable majority of olgnh thousand has do- clared against secession If this is to have any ef- fect, secession is certainly a dead letter. That South Carolina will not secede may now be regarded # fixed fact. But this is not all. In its death blow to recession, the heterogeneous mass of all sorts and descriptions which m: up the submission party bas effectually denied the right of secession, mur- dered the doctrine of State sovereignty, given aid end comfort to consolidation, and achieved a free soil and abolition triumph which no Northern people could ever accomplish. Speaking of the recent elections in that State, the Southern inel, of Columbus, Geo., says: — “The campaign, which is just closed, is one of the most interesting and important in the history of the country. It determines not that the pepe of Georgia have endorsed Mr. Cobb’s declaration that the compromise measures were “fair, liberal, and just;” not that a majority of the voters of this State deny the right of a State to secede ; not that Georgia will maintain the principles of the Georgia platform ; but that the devotion of our people to the Union is stronger than their devotion to the institution of slavery. When the controlling ele- ments of this vote shall have been properly analyzed, it will be found that the people, (we do not mean the office-reekors and politicians,) have beon influenced y a blind veneration for the Union, even in spite of their serious apprehensions for the safety of the institution of slavery, to swell tho majority for Cob’ and his confederates. Yes, in spite of their serious apprehensions 3 for even while they shouted for the Union, their fears smote them with alarm for their safety in the Union. Well, the cry 0° “Union” has succeeded ; the disunionisis have been completely routed, and this “glorious Union” is safe. There is no doubt about it now; but even amid the revels of victory, the question must in- trude itself upon the thoughts of that Union man who ,is not completely sold to submission—Is the South safe ? * But hopeloss as is tho future foreshadowed by these inquiries, we are even more seriously compro- mised in this Congressional district. The nominee of the Union party, it was charged and proved, was a free soiler and an anti-slavery man, and yot, in the face of these charges, be has been sustained by the full strength of the Union party. What are Northern men to infer from such a vote? What ought they toinfer? What, though we tell thom in the words o! the Georgia platfoam, you must not do thus and so, or we shall resist even to the dis- ruption of every tio which binds us to the Union, when, at the very first election after the adoption of that platform, we send a man to Congroi3 who recognises their right to do everything against which we have protested?” May not the same be said of Mississippi, Ala- bama, and South Carolina? The truth is becoming more atd more clearly demonstrated every day. Neither we of the South, nor the people of the North can fail to see that the devotion of our poople to the Union, or their fear of the federal govern- ment, is stronger, infinitely stronger, than their at- tachment to tho institution of slavery. For the fu- ture, the free soilors need not resort to Congress for the accomplishment of their ends. They bave quite a evficient number of sympathizers ani fellow abolitionists in all the Southern States, to receive any amount of aid, encouragement and co-operation whenever it is desired. Not only is the right of se- cession defunct, and State sovereignty an exploded abstraction, but the Union is now more strongly cemented than it ever was before. So far have wo sunk into submission, that disunion is now a childish fancy, and it will coon become treason to breathe the word. We givo below a corrected table of the results of the electien, arranged in congressional districts, having the vote of the election precincts separate; attached to cach will be found the number of dele- ‘ates in the State Convention to which it is enti- tled. There numbers are arranged in submission and secession eolumns, according to the side on which the popular majority lies—exce pting Ed, field, which, having but one majority, wo have di- vided, giving the odd delegate to submission. Our object in making this table is two-fold; first, fer its convenience at any future time for reference; dd secondly, to show what will be tho relative ‘ength of partios ia the Convention, if this elec- tion is to be considered the final decision of the people. Ifthe members of the Convention are to be guided by this clection, each one of them must be governed by the majority ot his own particular parish or district, and not by the majority of his congressional district. Thus, because Charleston distriot gives a majority for submission, it does not follow that a member from St. Stephens, which is nine to one for secession, should vote for submis- ndthe same vice versa. The necessity for i obvious.
