The sslaried officers in the State government, who have acted as trustees of the Canal Fund for the last -aix years, have never to my knowledge received any ex pensation for this service, which has covered the management and paying out of a hundred millions of dollars, and borrowing more than thirty millions. But if in either case, money was taken from the Trust fund to compensate the managers of the truat for extra services, it could only be done by » law of the State, or an ordinance of the Common Council. The precedent of using the fund to compensate the trus- tees, on a resolution adopted by the recipients of the money, is of dangerous tendency, and ought to be sot right by those who have received the money. In addition to these suggestions, which to my mind are conclusive, I think the Commissioners of the Sinking Fund must forgotten the 491st section of the ordinaneo ha tion to the accountability of officers, page 198 of dinances of 1849. This section is as follows:— “Sec, 401. No officer of the Corporation, whe shall re- ceive a Axed salary orrate of compensation{or his nervices, shall be entitled to extra compensation for any service which he may render to the Corporation, or which may be required of him by an ordinance or resolation of the Common Council, the Board of Supervisors, or the Board of Health, unless provision be expressly made for such extra compensation, by the ordinance or resolution re- quiring the service.” I trust that those commissioners whe are included in this ordinance, will see the propriety of returning te the sinking fund the money which has thus been taken from it. tfully, your obedient servant, ‘To J.

Declination of Mr. Tuck in Congressional District No. 1—Probability of an Entire Democratic De. legation im the Next Congress—Has Senator Hunter Declined a Place inthe Cabinet?—Scarcity of Journeymen Cabinet-makers—The Ice Freshet tn the Merrimack—Arrivals, §c. It appears that Mr. Tuck, whom the whigs and free soilers in our Congressional district, No. 1, have recently put in nomination to run against Kittredge, democrat, declines the nomination. I have already apprised you that the whigs met in convention, and nominated him, one day, and the free soilers followed suit on the next. It now appears that, in the whig nominating convention, Mr. Tuck received a bare ma- jority of the votes—61 out 124. He wasstrenuously opposed by a portion of the whigs who have not yet become thoroughly abolitionized, and who supported Gilman Marston, Esq., of Exeter. They objected to Mr. Tuck on the ground that he did not support Gen. Scott. A friend of Mr. T. stated that he did support Scott, and thus secured Tuck the nomination, with that understanding. Mr. T. has now issued an ad- dress, in which he says that his friend was mistaken in the matter, as he voted for John P. Hale, and in doing so acted according to hisinclinations of private friendship and esteem. He further says that he (Mr. T.) earnestly desired the success of Gen. Scot over Gen. Pierce, and if he had lived in a State where one vote might have elected or defeated the whig nominee, he should have felt inclined to vote fo. Scott. The free soil convention nominated Mr. Tuck by only six majority over John P. Hale, the vote stand- ing 46to40. In examining its proceedings, Mr. Tuck, in his address, finds additional reasons for declining the nomination, and says :— While malcontent whigs oppose me as a free soilor, mal- content free soilers denounce mo asa whig. I am ob- noxious to both charges, having labored during my ser. vices in Congress, to be the faithful representative of the true whig sentiment and the true free soil sentiment of my constituents. To sum up the whole matter, it would seem that Mr. Tuck, after being sent to Congress three terms by the united votes of the whigs and free soilers in his district, has finally made up his mind that the risk of defeat, and the expense of canvassing for a fourth trial, are too great to warrant allowing his name to be again used. In the thet declining state of abolitionism in New England, since the de- feat of Seward, Stanly, Jones & Co., at the late Presidential election, it will not pay expenses for him to peat serving two masters any longer. There is a small anti-democratic majority ‘e his dis- trict, which it will be difficult to unite upon any other man. An attempt may be made to rally the coali- tion npon J. P. Hale, but it will not, probably, suc- ceed ; and present appearances indicate that Dr. Kittredge, democrat, will have no trouble in walking over the course. If such is the result, there is a fair prospect that the democrats will carry the whole delegation, three in number. It now stands, under the old apportionment, two democrats and two abo- litionists. The democrats have already secured both of ne United States Senators, after the 4th of March next. Are the Washington quidnuncs sure that Senator Hunter has peremptorily declined serving in General Pierce's cabinet? I merely ask for information. Journeymen cabinet-makers are becoming scarce here, since the HERALD announced the probability that Gen. Pierce has closed up the list. The hotels, however, are pretty weil | steers by strangers who have no office to ask for, but are desirous of catching a glimpse of the new President previous to his de- jokers with a small occasional sprinkling of second- ‘and Pilgrims. Gen. Pierce has scarcely heard of a “hard” or “soft” fora week. The glory of Albany seems to have departed—* T'voja furt”—and the un terrified sons of Y ork, for present stick, to the coal hole of cld Tammany, ready for a descent the Gene- ral_when he comes ob the East river, about the I8th. The ice-freshet in the Merrimack has subsided. All the ice, for thirty miles above us, came down in one glorious mass on Tuesday, completely blocking up the river for a distance of overthree miles. Immense cakes of ice, which would do the hearts of your lovers of mint juleps good about the season ofdogdays, now cover our intervales. The ice was much thicker than I intimated in my last, some blocks being fall twenty inches, and clear as amber. ‘The subsiding of the waters, effected by the cold of Tuesday night, caused the river to fall, carrying most of it down, but still leaving a couple of millions of dollars, worth which may be had without money and without price. Much of it lies in close proximity to the five railroads ter- minating here. Our four bridges had a narrow escape.

Gen. Pierce now expects to leave here for Boston, en route to Washington, by the 104 o'clock train on Monday forenoon, unless delayed by some unforeseen occurrence. He will probably make the Tremont House, in Boston, his head-quarters, as usual, during his stay there. On Tuesday, it is expected that he will proceed to New York. Mrs. Pierce has already preceded him. She is now in Boston. I loarn that she may accompany him as far as Philadelphia, and remain there until after the inauguration; or it is berely possible that she may stop at Boston until that event has transpired. At Washington, Gen. P. will make Willard’s Hotel his head-quarters. Some of the newspapers announce that the inauguration will come off in the Representatives Hall of the capitol, and not on the Eastern portico, as has been customary. Gen. P. has advised no such change, and expects to be inaugurated as usual. Of the hundreds of office-seekers who have be- sieged the President elect, in season and out of sea- son, for the past three months, very few can be numbered among the real working democracy of the country. Thatclass have remained at home, minding *| their own business, ready to sustain the new adininis- tration, if itshall be conducted as the masses of the ple expect it will be, whi'e the class of men who fice thronged our hotels, waiting for a chance to the button-hole, are those who did but little in the Presidential campaign—a class of political chameleons, whigs yesterday and democrats to-day, as circumstances dictate. You will always find them prowling round, snuffing the peed , whenever a new administration is to be installed, no matter which party is in the ascendency After General Pierce reaches Washington, he will find (or rather, they will find him) one hundred ‘ of the same sort,” where he has now seen one. They will chase his every step—they will tag after and importune him from the time he rises in the morning until he goes to his couch at night. They will pre- sent their letters and petitions, all of which will, doubtless, be duly considered, and added to the twenty-five Genesee flour-barrels full, or less, already shipped to the White House via Boston. Finally, the President will make his own appointments, and nineteen out of every twenty will be disappointed. Then, how this army of cormorants will swear terri- bly in Washington, and how the boarding-house keepers who dont secure payment in advance, will chaunt the alto! Those who are making arrange- ments for a pilgrimage to Washington, in search of a government grindstone whereon to sharpen their axes, had better take my advice and a ‘sober second thought”—send their daguerreotypes and save their money. The Washington letter-writers appear to be renew- ing their speculations as to the composition of the cabinet, General Pierce will leave Concord with the interesting secret in his own bosom, so far as this deponent knoweth to the contrary ; and the cabinet, as I have frequently advised your will not finally be announced until on or about the 4th of next month, three weeks hence. In the meantime wiseaores are fully entitled to the Yankee privilege of guessing as much as they please. One of the “oldest inha- bitants” here in Pennacook, who is never known to fail in predicting a change in the weather at least six hours before the barometer shows any indications, has handed me the following list of some of the prin- cipal dignitaries whom he guesses will be in the new organization. I cannot vouch for his accuracy:— William L. Marcy, of New York State Department. R. M. T. Hunter, of Virgini Treasury =“ Judge Campbell, of Pennayl Intertor Samuel Medary,’ of Ohio, P. M. General. -_-— War “ —_——-, —— Navy “ Pierre Soulé, of Louisiana. Attorney Genoral. Healey’s portrait of General Pierce, presented by the latter to his landlord and old school-mate, Major John Gibson, of the Eagle Hotel, arrived from Bos- now graces one of the drawing- ton eh rooms. Ones ant cen , but the likeness not generally deemed go faithful as that sae br ont aoe Hampeliire genius and fellow-townsman, Mr. A. ‘enney. The Committee of Congress, appointed to inform General Pierce of his election as President, are ex- ected to arrive here either this afternoon or even- ing. It consists of Mr. Hunter, of Virginia, of the Senate; and Messrs. Jones, of Tennessee, and Hib- bard, of New Hampshire, on the part of the House. Mr. aah next lecture has been deferred unti some time in April, I learn. A distinguished author, from New York, recently passed through town, having been successful in se- curing some fifty pounds of trout, pickerel, and cusk, taken with a hook, through the ice, from the bays of Winnipissiogee lake, thirty miles above here, on the Boston, Concord and Montreal railroad. The same Gees of Izaak Walton called on General Pierce, obtained an interesting interview, but asked fo: no office. He is supposed to be the first “ pilgrim,” of any kind, who has seen the General and succeeded in “ getting a bite.” Apropos of lake fishing—Winni- pissiogee, otherwise known to summer tourists as ‘Heaven's Beautiful Water,” and ‘The Smile of the Great Spirit,” has become an interesting winter resort for sportsmen. A large number of fishermen are now encamped on its ive-glazed waters, in mova- ble tents. In the vicinity of each tent are from ten to thirty holes in the ice, with lines, hooks, and live bait attached to a twig, set in each. When the twig bends, the enthusiastic Waltonian warms his feet by making a rush for the line, securing it, and, if for- tune favors, a ten or fifteen-pounder of the lake trout species, or a six-pound pickerel, emerges through the hole and is safely landed on the ice. It is about an hour-and-a-balf's ride from this piace to the lake, near which there are good hotel accommodations. Leaving New York by the evening boat for Norwich and Worcester, you arrive here at 10 o'clock, at Meredith, (six miles from the Luke proper, or Weir's station, but inthe immediate vicinity of plenty of fish, in “Great Bay,”’) at noon on the following day. Now that we are about to loose our political pilgrims, there will be plenty of room and good quarters, among our Pennacock and Winnipissiogee plantations, for the admirers of inland winter fishing, fox and rabbit hunting, &c. The ice does not usually disappear in the lake until about the last of April. Fishermen improve the warm and sun shiny days for their best sport. Among the arrivals to-day are Colonels Steptoe and Roberts, of the army, on a visit to Gen. Pierce. I annex the last list which I shall send for the Hexatp. Our hotel keepers desire me to return their sincere thhnks to you, and the pilgrims gene- rally, for the gratuitous advertisement you have fur- nished them, from day to day, in the Heratp’s 48,000 average daily editions, and to request the fa- vor of a call when you come this way.

Dear Barnes—I do not know, as you assume rfect neutrality, but that it would be rathora feather in your cap to be able to predict correctly as tosome member of the incoming cabinet. You may set it Fart therefore, as a fact, that 30 far as New York State is concerned, either John A.

Mr. Eprron—That stupendeus speculation, the Ilinols Central Railroad, stands out in bold relief as the most gigantic speculation of modern times ; but, as a creditor of Illinois, I think, for one, with less than’ justice to the holders of the old improvement bonds.
