Cowcorp, N H , Dec.6, 1852. ‘The Late Emeute in Old Tammany—New Way of Saving Labor for the In-coming Administration— A Cool Retreat for Disappointed Office Seekers about to be Opened on Mownt Washington—Col Greene named for @ Place in the Mew Cabi- met—Death of the “Cowntess of Rumford” — The Legislatw: e— Proposed Union of Railroads— Maine Law—Warm Weather—Low Price of Poultry and High Price of Codfish—Abolition of the Property Qualification, §c. The plan whieh appears to have beon recently adopted by @ portion of the “unterrified” who “ most do congregate” in and about “Old Tam- many,” to relieve the in-coming administration of a portion of the care and responsibility of making appointments to office, appears to be attracting con- siderable attention in this quarter. It is decidedly original, sui generis. After one half of the most wenlous arpirants in your city have knocked off the heads, gouged out the ‘‘peopers,” and split open the skulls of the other half, there will only remain half as many as there now are to be provided for. ‘The fan will all be over, since ‘‘ competition is the life of business.” What kind of a show will the in- coming democracy make if the competitors for the foaves and fishes eo far make mince-moat of each other previous to the inauguration, that there is no competition left? The offices alone will not pay expenses. That is a fixed fact. The honor of holding them is more than equal to the emoluments. ut where there is no work, no trouble, in sceking for a desirable object, there is Beither honor nor credit in sine it; and, without competition, the possession of all the oliga- ble situations in the gift of Uncle Sam, between Passamaquoddy and San Francisco bays, brings no more jit to the successful aspirants, than ‘Simon ‘Tapley found in the unlimited enjoyment of ale and — drinking, (besides kissing the landlady, az ytum,) while he was acting in the capacity of hostler at an English inn. simon, it is written, ‘who was accustomed to question his right to feel ey ater such favorable circumstances,’ used to mncditate frequently upon the expediency of adopting a more ‘‘ solemncholiey” catling—that of sexton, or = @igger, seeming much more appropriate to im; and he only appreciated the full merit of feel- ing in good humor while luxuriatiog uader a thun- «der and: lightning shake of the fever and ague, after he had accompanied to America his master, Martin Chuzzlewit, and gone in pursuit of some object out Weet (It might have been in search of a hospital, near the Blue Licks, possibly; but about that mat ter my recollection does not 8 definitively.) So with your New York candidates for office. Tho understand the theory of the thing pretty well. ori! seem to appreciate that there can be no oredit in getting places, no honor, unless they are worked for. A few bioody noses and broken heads are just what is required; but the danger is that the stronger wili kill off the weaker portion entirely. forthwith, and thus destroy competition General Pierce may gain something by this operation; but the successful contestants will lose in credit, unless they postpone this whole- tale mince meat business watil, at least, after the 4th of March Among the petitions presented to our Legislature this season, are a couple for leave to construct pub- lic houees, for the entertainment of travellers, onthe summit of Mount Washington, up in Coos county. ‘There ie already one hotel there, called the ‘Tip- ‘Top House,” erected last summer _ It is principally 0‘ stone, the timber for the roof being conveyed up the mountain on borse-back, as no wood grows wiihin half mile of the location. The elevation is only 6 226 feet above the level of the sea, and the | air is delightfully eool and salubrious, especially at this sason of the year. If Tammany: Hall should become uncomfortavly warm, any time previous to the commencc ment of the March breezes, there will be an inducement for the proprietors to put up the pew houses forthwith. They are destined to-havea tremendous run, as the site will be a capital one for ardent office seckers to cool off on. The name of Colonel Charles Gordon Greene has been mentioned in connection with a place in General Pierce's cabinet. if an appointment should be sesigned to New England It has not tranepired tbat Colonel G. secks the honor, but there is a prospect that the bonor may rock him He has been spoken of for Post- master General, a place which no man in the Union is more competent to fill, as indeed he would almost any other post in the new cabinet. Colonel Greene is well known as one of the most able, consistent, aod straightforward national democrats in the country; of large experience, great foresight and pegacity in political matters He would adorn a feat in the cabinet, as a statcsman, even botter than be has, fur twenty years, a certain armed obair, located in the fourth story of No. 21 Water street, Boston. Colonel Greene bas boen an inti- amate and confidential friend of General Pierce, from their boyhood Composed of such timber, the pew cabinet is bound to bo a unit. Although nominally ‘‘green,” there is really no better seasoned democratic stuff to be feund in the country. Besides the President that is to be, this town has the honor of boasting of having formerly been the residence of the ‘* Count of Rumford” His only daughier, the Countess of Rumford died here on Thursday last, aged 76 Thom , and she was unmarricd. She was in | something better thau moderate circumstances, pe- cuniarily speaking, and is reported to have left, by her will, the old family mansion, and some $15,000, (the whole amwoun'ing to perhaps $20,000 ) to our town authorities, for the purpose of founding an asylum for widows and orphans. I have prepared a sketch of the life of ‘Count Ramford,” which 1 will forward for publication in the Hgeraxp, unless Jou find it out of place for your colamns just now at the re assembling of Congress, when so many im- portant political matters demand your space.

Application has been made, also, by the towns of Newport and Clare- mont, for permission to guarantee the bonds of the new corporation. This is not very likely to be granted, our New Hampshire democracy, when in the ascendant, being strongly opposed to the policy of making such guarantees, town and city loans, &c.

The Vote on the Planters’ Bank Bonds Question T notice that several of the New York papers pub- lish, and comment upon, a telegraphic despatch frem New Orleans, in which it is stated that the people of Mississippi decided, at the late election, by & large majority, to pay the Planters’ Bank Bonds. So far from there being any foundation for this report, just the reverse is the truth. The ques- | tion submitted to the people was whether a tax should be levied to pay the Planters’ Bank Bonds. By the terms of the law, every man who refased or neglected to vote at all was counted in favor of the tax. The result is, that in a vete of 43,000, the anti-bonders have a clear majority of more than 12 000. The expression of the popular will against the payment of the bonds is emphatic and defini- tive. Whether the decision thus made ia dofensible or indefensible, disgraceful, or otherwise, I do not | undertake to say.

Visitofa Yankee to Turkey. PEREONAL APPEARANCE OF THE SULTAN—VISIT TO THE PALACE, AND HAREM OF FUAD EFFENDI, THE MINISTER OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS. ETC. [Correspondence of the Baltimore Sun } We were conducted through two successive halls of the palace, both furnished in the most regal and | Eastern style, in the first of which, drawn up in a double column, were the pages of the Sultan, who, with their tall helmets and feathers, looked very grard and picturesque. Entering into the third chamber our eyes fell upon his Majesty the Sul- tan, who was standing, with no one near him save the Minister of Foreign Affairs, in the remotest part of it, awaiting our approach. We advanced to within three yards of him and then made the usual Turkish salutation, which (the hard being first carried very low, and then brought near the lips) is in rude imitation of kissing the earth on which the sovereign treads. Whilst wak- ing these salaams, his Imperial Majesty graciously condescended to bestow a look, calm and apparently indifferent as it was, upon us “ Various addresses were then delivered, to which the Sultan replied by a bow. During the intervals which ocsurred in the speech- es, he cast an occasional languid look upon first one and then another of us, which gave us a fixe oppor- tunity of scanning his features He is rather low in stature; has dark, melancholy eyes, which ex- hibit an almost total lack of energy; but which have, at the same time, an smiable and benevolent expression. The tout ensemble of his faco is good, but on looking at it closely I discovered that it was much pitted with small pe Like all Musselmen, he wears a full beard. He had a black cloth cloak thrown over him, which was fastened in front with arich jewcled clasp. His coat was so richly em- broidered, braided, and studded with diamonds, &o , that to attempt a dessription of it would be vaio and superfluous. The collar and cuffs were com- pletely encased in diamonds. He wore a sword, which reposed in one of the most elegantly ohased and jewelled ecabbards tbat the moat exalted fancy could conceive of. On his head was the red tes, which is universally worn by high and low through- | out the empire. To our wonder he remained stand- ing all the time we were gp his royal presence, the unusual exertion attendant upon which must have been quite fatiguing to his Highness. His feet are very much inverted, but such is the case with those of most of the Turks, owing to the position in a they sit, and their being so constantly in the saddle. A few days ago we visited the houee of Fuad Effendi, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and having | inspected the grounds and enjoyed coffee and pipes, an euruch, black as moonless midnight, clad ina scarlet robe lined with fur, suddenly made his ap- pearance, like the genii of old, and announced thet he was ready to conduct our female friends within the sacred precincts of the harem. He led | them through several large apartments into one comparatively small. Here they were recsived by two Turkish women rather advanced in life, who were surrounded by about a dozen Circassian slaves By a wave of the hands, oer were requested to be cet i wah tans Arana on eens of her lyebip being indisposed, she wou! jappy to see her friends in ber own chamber. Ina short time ths little daughter ot madam entered the room, and said that her ma was ready to receive them. With some of the slaves breceding, others following them, they ascended a wide, circuitous and splendid stairway,and were ushered into an apartment where, on a couch formed of green and ye i splendidly embroidered cloth, of the richest hues and material, thrown over her, surrounded by « host of fair Circassians, one of whom was gently | boo | her, gracefully reclined her ladyship. She partially rore upon their entrance, and saluted them with a turkish salaam, which is made by rying the right hand to the chin and then qui ‘ly wl es placed chairs in front of her, to the foretead. Almost simultaneously with ealutation the s] upon which our friends seated themselves; during | this time the rest of the slaves remained standing about in different parts of the room, ready to obey any summons of their mistress She expressed her regret at being unwell, and consequently uvable to | receive her visitors below, but the Eastern picture that she presented, thus reclining and thus sur- rounded, was far more interestiag than it could other- wise possibly have been. She appoarod to be pleased new world, and asked almost as many questions concerning America as they did of her country. They found her quite intelligent, and her manners easy and lady like Women of the Turkish harems generally spend their time in luxurious indolence, ut she showed a grea’ fondness for embroidering, or oogscin her mind and attention in something useful She manifested a great deal of interest in her slaves, and teaches them the art of embroidery. &e Many of them are skilled in music and one of them during the virit played several Italian and | Turkish airs on the piano. For the gratification of our friends, ssveral of the most elegant dresees of her ladyship’s wardrobe were exhibited, all of which were, of course, made inthe loose and flowing style of the East. The dress worn by Turkish females of the present day cannot be called graceful; it may be made beautiful by rich working and material, but the cut of it is awkward. I+ is very loose, and so long that it trails a footortwoon the floor; it is brought together just above the waist by a sash. When they walk cut, the skirts are festooned up at the sides. The Bloomer, or, as some consider it, the Turkish drees, worn by a fow bold ladies in America, has no pos- sible resemblance to the real article. The slaves all appeared to be very happy, and more like daughters of their mistress than as her property. In fact, slavery in gees d is @ mere nomisal thing; the bondemaid is taught every ac- complishment, and frequently thereby marries the bighest officer in the realm. At first we would be inclined to pity the poor gil, fancyivg her forcibly tern from her distreseed parents and sold into servitude; but when we reflect she her- hile still young among her own kindred and her own mountain wilds, eagerly longs for the day that will bring herto this great Eastern capital to be sold into such luxurious captivity, where she is cheered by the bright beacon of hope, we cease to commiserate Madame Fuad was very desirous to know our practices concerning matrimony; whether it was customary to make the bride handsome presents, and whether a bowie id is negotiated by others than the parties fmmediately interested, as is the custom here. Our friends noticed the latticed windows which screen the inmates of the harem from the obser- vation of outside barbarians the interior, observe everything going on without; and, as an opera [omy lay on the tatin couch, we can well imagine how the fair occupante of those bare ns which overhang the Bosphorus amuse them- selves watching the endlees and ever- varying objects upon ite eurface After many social interchanges, her ladyship being epee io her invitation to them to repeat their visit, our friends descended into a magnifi- cently furcished spartment, where they were re- geled with sherbet, brought to the door by the eforementioned black eunuch, and from thence by Circastian slaves, to the gueste, each slave bearing & white, gold embroidered napkin When any re- freskinent i served, the slave places her hand on the lower part of the breast, and retreats backward for & few pacer, with the face towards the guest.

[From the St. Louis Democrat, Nov, 27.] We referred in our last number to the arrest of this person by Capt. Cozzens As there is no doubt an anxiety amongst the public to learn something more of his former transactions, we subjoin what we have learned concerning him :— a is represented as a man of pleasing address, favor his demeanor to their peculiar tastes and itions. He represented himself as an officor in the British army; that he had saved a large sum of money. and that he had inherited a bandsome fortune from an aunt, which yiclded him $25.000 peranaum. The following is the history of his bankiog operations with M ies and Miller, to which we alluded the other day. We give the account as we find it ia the Evening News of 5: yi The three were to subscribe all the stock for the Lie eas bank. Hovghton, by some story, satis- ied them that bis portion of the necessary amount would be forthcoming Mr. r drew @ mortgage, having some years to run, bearing six per cent interest. This meting embraced property of his own, worth $26,000. Mr. McClung prepared a simi- lar document, for a like sum, in his own name. It was ag@ed to entrust Houghton with the negotia- tion of these mortgages, and it was arranged that he should proceed to New York te Bale the purpose He was to obtain money upon ae papers, and purchase State stocks or simi- lar assets, to filo with the Auditor of Iilinois, as the basis of the prey bank. About the time fixed for starting to New York, he borrowed money from each of them, ostensibly to defray his travelling and other expenses that would accrue from the purchase ef plates for the issue of their bills. He saypiled himself with a daguerreotype likenoss of a hand- some lady of Bloomington, which was to be trans- ferred to the engrave Ries and form part of the vignette for the bills of the bank. He raised money also, before starting, by selling epurious drafts and bills of foreign exchange An Englishman, living in that county, gave with the eum raised, | Houghton three hundred dollars for three hundred unds in sterling exchange, and his note for the dif- ference in the amount. James Bum, of Spring- field, was the purchaser of a spurious draft on New York, for which ho paid Houghton one thousand do)lars. The whole amount raised, it is said, will not exceed five or six thousand dollars. While thus engaged in planning and executing these cheats, he racticed a singular deception upon the people of cLean county. He appeared amongst them as “Major Houghton,” an officer of the ‘‘Life Guards.” He was absent, he pretended, on commissary duty, and, it is said, he examined and engaged a number of black horses, which were to be transported to Eng!and, for re-mounting the ‘‘Life Guards.” About this time the Bloomington newspaper partially ex; d him, and he ran off. He did not visit New york, but came to Missouri, and was sometime en- aged in hunting. Lately, his object was to reach ‘exas by the land route. He was arrested near the Prairie House, in the St Charles stage, which was then coming to the city. Capt. Cozzens kept him until es he was searched at the house of the Mayor. The sum found on him, we Jearn, was between $1,900 and and $2,000, in gold. He had in his peskets checks Soon the Rank of Eagland; what amount is uo- own. It seems that a year since he went to Shelby coua- ty, Kentucky, with forged letters of recommenda- tion, as the *-Hon Mr. Wharton,” a younger son of an English peer. He had money in plenty, and ex- hibited certificates ot deposit for large sums, of vai ous dates. He became a visiter, while there, at house of Col. Charles 8. Todd, lived fashionably at extravagantly, but paid scrupulously for all that he bought, while in the county. Hoe was guilty of ne act of dishonesty in Shelby, except that he swindled a citizen of in so dexterous & manner that it did not appear in that light for some months after. His next appearance was at Danville, in Boyle county, where he stili retained his alias of ‘‘ Hon. Mr. Wharton.” He visited frequently the residen- ces of the Messrs Shelby, of that county. He had become intimate with the family, when one of ite members reccived an anonymous letter, of which the self styled Wharton was the subject. Alfred | Shelby, Erq., Supposing that this was dictated through other motives than the belief expressed by the writer, that Wharton was an impostor, made the cause of his new acquaintance hisown. Still thinking this adventurer a man of honor, he insti- tuted an inquiry concerning the authorship of the letter While prosecuting this, a quarrel grow uw) between him and a Mr. Cowan, an intimate frien of himself and family. This Ns led to a hostile eat and Mr. Shelby was killed. This hap- pened in the month of Houghton then fled the State. We next hear of him as Dr Howard, at tho resi- dence of Mr. Wm. Shelby, of Lafayette county, Mo. During his stay there, he took advantage of an in- tention of Mr. Shelby, who thought of investing $6,000 or $8 000 in land in Texas, to make proposi- tions for an investment in partnership He had de- vised a scheme to swindle Mr Shelby of money to that amount, and was engaged in plotting a plan to execute it, when some of Mr. Shelby’s relatives ar- rived from Kentucky, and recognised in hi he Hon Mr. Wharton, of Shelbyville and Danville. He left Lafayette upon the instant, and since has been engaged in his Bloomington Bank schemes. The Region about the Southwest End of Lake Superior, (From the St. Paul (Minnesota) Pioneer, Nov. 25 ] Mr. Stuntz, of Grant county, Wisconsin, has be: n deputed by the General Land Surveyor of this (north- wes’) district to lay off such a tract of land about the southwest point of the lake, into townships and sections, as emigration will earliest require. ¢ re- turned, via Le Pointe and Stillwater, last week We have obtained from him some new views of that region From Fond du Lac, a trading post, situated about eleven miles inland on the St Louis river, eastward, for Perhaps fifty miles, the margin of the lake is a flat strip of land reaching back to a rocky ridge, about eleven miles off ‘The soil of this flat land is arich red clay.

Awongst tho reprints of English works, we have received from Merérs Stringer & Townsend ‘‘ Ad- ventures of an Aide de Camp,” by Grant, and from Meeers. Garret & Co., ‘Minnie Grey,” whose cha- racters have already been testified to by able Eng- lish critics. Wemyss’ CHRONOLOGY oF THE AMERICAN STAGE, ee by Taylor & Co, 151 Nassau strect, has en compiled with great accuracy by Mr. Francis ©. Wemyes, ef the Bowery theatre, who must ne- cessarily bave expended much time and patience on the labor. It presents, in a consise form, the prinoi- palevents in the career of every actor and actress who hag appeared on the American stage within the last kee and is a complete census ef the pro- feeeors of the dramatic art in this country, alpha- betically arranged. If we have delayed to make this notice for some days after the receip’ of the beok, we have the advantage of being enabled by the experience thus afforded to recommend it asa most useful work of reference to all interested in the tubject of theatricals. In addition to the above in- formation, it contains a chronology of the stage, lists of theatres, managers, &c. Board of Supervisors. Dxc. 6.—His Hon »r, the Recorder, in the Chair.
