JOHNSON NEVER WAS A WHIG—THi NEW YORKERS—THH SYSTEM OF FARMING OUT THB SPOILS—THH BA- SIN AND RAILWAY AT SAN FRANCISCO, ETC. Wasuincton, March 10—8 P. M. The following nominations were sent to the Senate by the President to-day, and referred to the appropriate committee: 5. J. Briage, of Beston, Appraiser at large for the Pacific coast. Mr. Carr, Receiver of Public Money in Indiana. Jesse B. Clemens, as Marshal of the Eastern District of Tennessee, in place of Mr. Brown, removed. A nomination wasalso sent in for Marshal of the West- ern District of Tennessee, to fill » vaeancy caused by death. A large number of naval promotiona were also sent in. No other nominations have yet been received by the Senate, exeept what I have sent you. The announcement that Mr. Johnson, an applicant for the California marshalship, was a whig, is a mistake. It was probably caused by his holding office under the pre. sent marshal. I learn from undoubted authority, that he is a democrat in good standing. The question of the New York appointments is yet un" disturbed. Mr. Emanuel B. Hart, is an applicant for the post of Navy Agent. General. Pierce will have an easy time of it if he- only acts upon the adviee of the members of Congress. They have resolved themselves into committees to parcel out the patronage in their several States, and.avow openly that the President must make the nominations.as they dictate, if he desires to succeed with Congress. Under this arrangement no person who may happen to live in 9 district where the member is opposed to him has any chance of success—no matter what his other qualifies- tions or endorsements maybe. Of courseldo not sup- pose the President is « party to any such arrangement. The announcement that Mr. Eames, one of the assistant editors.of the Union, has been appointed Assistant Se. cretary of State, must have been discovered by the aid of spiritual rappers, as the office itself does not go into operation until after the 30th of June next. Immense quantities of petitions and recommendations for office are being daily filed at the several departments. The number of applicants and the strong claims they all present, seriously embarrass the administration, which was not prepared to find it owed its suceess to such @ numerous band of disinteresvea patriuus. The appropriation for building the basin and railway at San Francisco is only available in case the Secretary of the Navy deems the work necessary. It is said the Naval Bureaus are opposed to it, and the matter is there- fore still in doubt. x ¥.Z GEN. PIERCE AND HIS ASSISTANTS OVERWHELMED WITH THE CLAIMS OF OFFICE SHEKERS—THB RE- CEPTION OF VISITERS—THEIR IMPORTUNITY—THE PRESSURE UPON THE CABINET, ETC. Wasmncrox, March10—9 P. Mf. General Pierce left this afternoon for Baltimore, and will return to-morrow with Mrs. Pieree. He is over- wholmed. He is fortunate if he can get more than one meal during the day, or if he can retire to rest before two o'clock in the morning, to be up again at six. He receives vititers of all sorts, in the lump. He was engaged in the service to-day till nearly two o'clock. To day, when the company were dismissed, several per- sons followed him into a side room. He then camo out into the hall, bripging them after him, and being thus reljeved he slipfed into another door, and the door was shut. The office seekers don’t like these mixed assemblies. It is the one minute in private that they desire, Sometimes in the crowd, they try to draw him aside, but they gene- rally fail. Sidney Webster, his private sooretary, is the next resort, and the poor youth is perplexed with the pressure of the hungry swarm, till even he is compelled to close doors. The Cabinet to-day, in business style, are receiving company. Oneor two go into the Secretary at a time, tell their story, and hand im their papers. The throng of applicants in the hall, are waiting their turns. The pressure on Secretary Marcy,for foreign missions and con- sulships, is astounding. So it is of the rest. The Cnion is hurrying on the work, while the doomed office holders are trembling with dismay. A. B.C. FRESH INVOICES OF OFFICE SEEKERS FROM NEW YORK AND ELSEWHERE—COLLECTORSHIPS AND CONSULSHIPS—AN ONLY FAVOR TO GEN. DIX—THE NEW YORK POST OFFICE—HARD AND SOFT SHELL CAUCUS—A MARCY MOVEMENT FOR THE NEXT PRESIDENCY. yyasmyarox, March 1010 P. M. It ia curious to see the rush for the Néw York Herarp when the mails arrive, every evening, at the hotels, as it is only from it the office seekers, their friends, and the public at large, learn what has happoned the day before, A host of office seekers arrived by the cars to-night. The cry is still they come. Among others who came from New York to-night are Isaac V. Fowler, John Cochrane Daniel E. Delavan, and Thomas Dunlap. Samuel J. Til- den is expected in the morning. The report that Mr. Hammond is appointed to the col- lectorship of California is rather premature. It is said that Mr. Marshall is now in the ascendant. Mr. Vezey, who has been appointed Consul to Havre, is now’Consul at Antwerp. He was appointed by Presi- dent Polk, and kept in effice under the late whig régime. He is now appointed at the personal request of Genoral Dix, who, it is said, declared it to be the only favor he would ask. Mr. Maunsell B, Field is a candidate either fora charge- ship to Leghorn or secretaryship of the Legation to Paris. Neither Mr. Eames nor Mr. Brodhead are appointed as yet to the office of the Asssistant Seeretaryship. Mr. ‘Aaron Vale is a candidate. This appointment fs involved in uncertainty. Mr. Edward C. West is a candidate for the District At- torneyship of Now York ‘The number of letters and papers sent to tho President, in favor of the different candidates, is tremendous. The “clerks in the various departments are classifying them, and making out short abstracts of their oentents, Some of these letters have been printed by the candidates, It is stated that Gen. Pierce will make all the impor‘ ant appointments himself, Tho firat businers to be proceeded with is the filling of vacancies, The President has been overrun with bungry hordes, and nas refused audience to great numbers, It is thonght that the chief New York appointments wily bo disponed of to-morrow or Saturday. Mr. Libby has ern spoken of in connection with the Post Offices, There is no truth in the report in a morning paper of your city that the President ha- offered the collectorship to Schuyler Livingston, either by lotter or otherwise. A movement that has been in operation for some time to overthrow all the candidates for the ollectorship, particularly Mr. Sehell, who is now supposed to be the strongest man, has beem brought to maturity this evening. Acaucus has been held of the barnburnera nnd soft shells, and others, who wore friends of Marcy at the Bal- timore Convention. The following were said to be pre- sent :—Mr, Dean Richmond of Buffale, William Angell of Jefferson county, John L, O'Sullivan of Now York, Mr, MORNING EDITION---FRIDAY, MARCH 11, 1853.

CLAYTON at the instructions read by the Senator did not refer to a treaty at all, but to pap ter or grant made by Nicaragua to individuals, giving ig! Buffalo, 8. Herrick of New York, Mr. Snow of Otsego county (late member of Congress), and o thers. The ultimate object of the meeting had reference to the next Presidency; and the idea isthat the patronage should be disposed of soas to Prepare fe way for s successful result for Secretary Marcy. The most impor- tant appointment, as far as New York is c ncerned on this issue, is the ccllectorship of that port. Th ® new men brought forward in that connexion were Robert Kelly and ex-Mayor Mickle., Neither of the names, however, are new in New York to those who have been behind the ci irtains. One is a barmburner and the other isa soft shell. Other names were mentioned, but who they were I coald not ascertain. A deputation fram the caucus waited upon Secretary Marcy, and it is stated as the result of thee in- terview that there is to be no appointment made for ten days, and that a commission is to be sent by the Prvsi- dent to New York, in the meantime, to inquire and re- port to head quarters. The excitement on the subject is very great. There ia a curious report through Washington about an agent having arrived bere yesterday, with a carpet bag containing twenty-five thousand dollars of the notes of the Leather Cutters’ Bank, for the purpose of bribing as many of the New York members of Congress as could be reached, in favor of some great unknown, for the much coveted office of Collector of New York, which controls so large an amount of patronage and political power. QED. THE MECHANICS’ INSTITUTE EXHIBITION—NOMINA- TIONS SENT TO THE SENATE, ETC. ¥ROM' 4 REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. Wasuncton, March 10, 1853. A largo delegation from the Maryland Institute, Balti- more, visited the Mechanics’ exhibition to-day by invita- tion. They were received by a Committee of the Metro- politan Institute, and hospitably entertained. They afterwards waited on President Pierce, and were intro- duced by Mayor French, The Senate remained in executive session bute few moments to-day. About a dozen nominations have been. sent in and referred. None of them having been defi- nitely acted upon, they are strictly confidential. It is believed that Mr Kennedy, the Superintendent of the Census, will be retained, as tho work is drawing to a close. ‘The applicants for-office under the Post Office Depart: ment, from avery section of the country, are innumerable, them an exclnsive a Dovarass again read that portion of the instruc- ions. Mr. Crayton said that what the Senator had read re- ferred ane contraet i Ad to individuals, &c., and not to any treaty by Mr. Blse. Mr. Dovatas read er from the instructions. He anid the word used was nation—not to give exclusive grant or charter to aay nation—meanin; clearly, ac- cording to his interpretaxion, that if Mr. lise hax’ ob. tained such amexclusive grant fer this nation, he (Mr. Squier) was to have it mosified so as to make it open to the world. Such was Mr. Squier’s construction of his instructions. Oz his arrival there, or before he got there, he notified the government of Nicaragia that Mr. Hie had no authority to treet with i on the subject, that he had bse recalled, snd’ that sny treaty yy kim would not be recognized by the prveenenens ofthe United States, and he imme- diately p upon his ertival’ there, to nego- tiate a treaty in conformity with thy views of the department, as contained in h’é instructions, by which the grant was to be sotured on che'plan of a partnership with the world. Both the Hise and Squire treaties were in the State Department when Congress met, and the Department had the — and the’ right to send either to the Senate for ratit ion. They were framed on dif- ferent policies. The ens gave to the United States an exclusive right—the othor gave a rigl.tin partnership with the world. The Secretary of State had the opportunity to adopt either policy. Ge did so--ejecting the one securing the exclusive grant and adopting the. part- nership plan. The Clayton and Bulwer'treaty bed its origin in these proceedings Mr. Cayton said, if the Senator woul? only give him- self time to read the last peragraph of tie instructions, he would see they do not re‘er toany trenty, but directad. him to see that any grant tor individuals: should not Ye oue which would place in the hands of capitalists an exclusive privilege, enabling them to extort from tho commerce of the world, whic *would seek tliat channel of communication, by un’air an# unjust taxss, and such tolls and charges aa they might think proper to levy upon it. He would ask the Sezator how he: could have supposed, when he issued the inetructions to Mr. Squier, , that Mr. Hise had made such » treaty, when, in fact, Mr. Hise made his treaty some ifme after that-date? How could he have supposed Mr. Hisa would make any treaty at all, when he found in the Stato Department Mr, Ba- } chanan’s instructions to Mr. Hise not to make any treaty whatever? Mr: Dovo1as said he had read that paragiaph three times: While he accepted the Senator’s explanation of it, Be pope it still bore the construction he had placed upon it. Tt was positive against any exclusive right. Did ithe Senator now prefer the grant of an exclusive Ir. OLawTon sald he did not. Mr. Dove.as said that he was, therefore, doing nothing !more than maintaising the consistency of the instruc- tions with the Senator's now avowed preference for the rtnership plan over an exclusive right in the United tes. Mr. Squier evidently understood the instructions as he did. While on his way to Nicaragua, he saw in a newspaper statement that (Mr. {Hise had or was nego- tiating « t for an exclusive grant, and without wait- ing till he reached there, he sent off in advance a protest against Mz; Hise’s authority or power to negotiate any such treaty. He understood now from theSenator that the Hise treaty was obnoxious because it guaranteod the inde- endenee of Nicaragua, to do which would be a departure rom policy—the policy heretofore pursued by: the United States, except in one instance, The objections, stated in the message to Congress in 1850, were different from this. The Hise treaty was received in ‘the State Department in September, 1849; the Squier treaty, in October Imme. diately after the receipt of the latter, the Secretary of State wrote to Mr. Lawrence, in London, to suggest to the Britis government the willingness of the United States to enter into a treaty with Great Britain, to gus. independence of Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and ‘Thus, while the Senator retained in the State department the Hise treaty, becaure it guaranteed the independence of Nicaragua, he was proposing a treaty with Great Britain, to guarantee the independence of that State and others. ‘How the Senator could reconcile this roceeding-he could not understand. Tho Senator must Eo mistaken in supposing that that feature of the treaty was one of the reaons for withbuldiuy It fru the Senate If that feature was -» monstrous, he was proposing to do the same thing Pimeelf. ‘The Senator must be mistaken in new, Supposing that that reason operated on his mind the rejection of that treaty. The Senator had avked with an air of triumph, what Senator would vote for that treaty in all its monstrous and un- constitutional details? He had no fancy for that sort of special pleading which asked whether a man could vote for that treaty, when in all its details it could have been amended. He mizht, if he had practiced a little, ask with a like aiz of triumph, who would have voted for the treaty of peace with Mexico, with its obnoxious features in it? UNITED STATES SENATE. BEXTRA SESSION. Wasuixeton, March 10, 1858. THE CONTRACT FOR SUPPLYING THE JAPAN MXPEDITION. WITH Coat, ETC. Mr. Corr, (whig) of Pa., offered a resolution calling for the contract entered into with Howlind & Aspinwall for supplying the Japan squadron with coal, the price per ton when delivered in the Chinese seas, the eommis- sions, &o., with all the particulars. Also, the offer raade - by other parties, stating the prices, &c.; and whether the government, at the time of making the said contract, . had not regularly authorized agents and inspectors of coa! in their commission; whether Howland & Aspinwall have not been appointed inspectors and agents of coal, with an allowance of double commissions, &e. Mr. Cooper said his object was to ascertain, if practicable, information relative to the supply of coal to the Japan squadron. It was known that the government had two Sgonte regulaciy appointed, to purchase and inspect coal for the nayy— one for anthracite and one for bituminous coal. Tueir duty was to supply and inspect all coal of either kind.re- poco hae not only for the uses of the navy, but also forthe lockyards and workshops. Their compensation is fixodat a per centage on all coal purehased by them, of five. per wont the «i i to its snlling, an “agent onened C8 hip APTs, Of Rees kinds of eoal at certain prices, and to deliver it at such ints and piaces in the Chinese seas as might be Riigeatea by the government, the cost not to execed $15 per ton. The offer was to furnish anthracite at $14 50, and bituminous at $14 90 per ton, neither kind of to exceed $15 per ton. It seemed that neither offer was accepted.

It was not proper to evade the issue of rejecting an exclusive grant, by saying the treaty which secured it in all its de- tails would not have been ratified.” Had that treaty been sent in, it could have been amended. The treaty of Mr. Hise was evidence that Nicaragua at that time was wil- ling and anxious to give to the United States the exclusive grant. This was the leading and the main feature of it; and no matter what the details were, they could have been amended and arranged. This great fact could have een secomplished; but the Feeretary cf State, with his eyes open, rejected, thew away, the exclusive right and took the partmessbip. ‘The Senator from Delaware arraigned Mr. Polk and Secre. tary Buchanan for neglecting to carry out tho Monroe doctrine, and for refusing to listen to the appeals of Nicaragua for protection against European interference. The Senator took especial paina to show this to have been the case. He therefore is estopped from denying that Nicaragua was willing and anxious to have this ex. clusive right in the United States. When, in February last, he (Mr. D.) discussed this matter, he did so with no partizan spirit. He did not mention whig or democrat throughout his remarks. He expected to have been met inthe same spirit. He was not, however, to be divertod into a defence of Jackson and Polk. He did not expect the Senator would shield himself behind the names of Jackson and Polk, while at the same time he was s1 bos them. ir. Crayton denied he bad done so. He had made no attack upon them. His reference to Mr. Polk, was to show that in a speech in the House on the Panama ques- tion he had opposed the Monroe doctrine. Mr. Dovctas thonght the Senator had said Mr. Polk had asserted the Moncoe doctrine in his message, and that when the Nicaraguan government askedefor its en- forcement, he refused to do so, and left the appeal unan- swered; and this, as a Western man, he had looked upon ag an attack. Mr. CLAYTON said that he was defending them for not evforeing that doctrine, it ever having received the ap- proval of Congress. Mr. Dovcras said the Senator had remarked that whon he went into the State Department he found Groat Bi in porsession of Honduras, the Mosquito coast, arly one half of Central America. He made some about Mr. Polk having let the lion in, and thus id the foundation for a glorification of his ‘conduct in haltering the lion and leading him out. He would like to ask the Senator what inch of territory in Central America bis treaty had induced or bound Great Britain to abandon? What inch of territory has she abandoned by virtue of that treaty? She possesses now all she did before it, She has rather extended her posseasions—she continues the protectorate to thus day. In his speech, he asked this same question, and though the Senator had replied to much of it, he has not noticed them. Of course, want of time alone prevented him from doing so, (Laughter ) Mr. CLaYToN said he had answersd them, but the Sena tor was not in his seat at the time. Mr. Dovatas said he would, in justice to the Seoator, ray, that the Bay of Islands. were not colonized in pur: suance of the treaty, but in utter contempt of it. That colonization was adouble wrong. It was a. violation of the long-established policy of the nation, and of the Clay- ton and Bulwer treaty. He would seek no issue with Great Britain as to the Belize—she bad possessed that ve been bought—this, too, where the American coal, both anthracite and bituminous, is much suporior to the English coal, as bas been frequently demonstrated by actual tests and experiments. He was informed that this English coal, when delivered in the Chinese seas, will cost one fourth more than the American coal, which was vastly superior, would have cost. He was also informed that instead of an allowance of five per cent, as to the other regularly appointed agents, How- land & Aspinwall are to receive ten per cent commission. ‘They are also allowed ten and a half per cent by way of exchange, on the amount of coal they purchase in Eng- land. If this be «0, the proceeding is an outrage, and should be made known. He was informed that there would be 80,000 tons of coal required, which, a $20 per ton, would give them $160,000 by way of commissions, and $160,000 more by way of exchange. He meant to cast no reproach on the late Secretary of the Navy, or his predecessor. They were both high minded and honor- able men—men of character and poy ge but, neverthe- less, those contracts have been made the bureaus, possibly without their knowledge.

It was an act in vio- enco of that pclicy which would have secured to the United States the exclusive grant of a right of way to the Pacific acress Nicaragua. The Sevator was in favor of the policy of making this « partnership affair, open to the world. tn hls speech he had expressed a regret that the administration of Gen. Taylor had withheld from the Senate the treaty negotiated by Mr. Hise, and this int the Senator had met by stating the many ob- jections to that treaty. It was said that that treaty was negotiated without instructions. That was cer- tainly no objection to sending it to the Senate for rati. fication. The treaty negotiated by Mr. Bidlaek, and cited by the Senator as an authority to sustain him on another potnt, was not withheld from the Senate, nor rejected by it, because it was negotiate! without instructions. He understood the rule to be, that when a treaty was made without any authority todo 50, the executive was at Hiberty to withhold it and reject { unconditionally, if he thought proper, or to send it to the Senate, if he should deem ft advisable—but where it was negotiated under instructions, there was an Implied obligation te send it to the Senate for ratification. ‘Tho next objection was, that lation of her plighted fuith and our avowed policy. She cannot justify it in the eyes of the nations of the world. she dare not fight to maintain it. He called on the friends of the Clayton and Bulwer treaty to stand by those who were contending that that colony whieh is established in violation of that treaty should be discontinued. If she abandon this at our demand, it will be a long time be- fore she will again attempt to establish avother colony without consulting the United States. If she will not attempt it, what other power will? Let this be done, and there will be no need of resolutions de- claring the Monroe doctrine. Not one inch of territor had she given up in consequence of the Clayton and Bul- wer treaty—en the contrary, she has now proposed new negotiations, by which she imay give up somethlug. The late President and Secretary of State, were willing to go into new negotiations. The British lion wan's to leave that territory, If he does, why don’t he go?

If it was uncon-ti- tutional to accept an exclusive grant, such as was secured by the Hise treaty, why was {t not equally uneonstitu- tional to take such a right in partnership with Groat Britain? If it were unconstitutional to bind ourselves to defend an American company in Nicaragua why was it not unconstitutional to bind ourselves with England to defend British subjects. ‘Phe Senator, by his treaty, has done this ; and when the constitutional power to do s0 is shown, it will show that everything done under the partnership could kaye been done to secure ction the the ‘right to America, and to protect it in the hands “of American citizens. He would like the Senator to ier, if it would not have been as creditable to the United States to take the exclusive right and them throw it open to the world, as to agree to take it with another and do no more. ¥ the United States had it exetusively, and opened it to the world, they could annex to it any condition they thought proper, aud they could then hold a rod to force the nations of the world to keep the pease towards us, If any violations of troaties or seizures of islands took place, the United States could close the canal to commeree in the Pasific.

The position of this nation justified the assumption on its part. of that authority. Had this exclesive right been ebtained, he would have been willing to have opened this sanal to te world on the most liberal terms, for logiti mate uses. But then we could have fortified it at beth ends, and in time of war eould’ haye closed it. to our enemies. The argument against our sessing this exelusive right was, that Eng- ni and ovser European powers would nevor consont toit. He did not suppose they would. Me would’ not have asked them. If Nicaragua consented, it was purely an American agetic, with which Europe had no more to do than had America with the efforts of the Holy Alli- ance to restore the equilidrium of Europe.

This ration is now of age. Let he: do what is right, and put tho-consequences behind her. Be- gause he had objected to the clause in the treaty ‘binding the United States: never to exercise any do- minion over’ any part of Central America, the Sen- ator charged him with designing to annex it, and reminded hirs of a similar clause in the Mexican treaty, That Senator well’ knew how he had long struggled to ge? that clause: stricken out, and how the Senator opposed it. The Senator could not justify plac- ing it in his treaty, on the ground that it was forced on hin in the Mexiean treaty, The time had not yet ar- rived for annexixg any part ef either Mexico or Centra? eee ; ak who could say when that time would not @ he iy years ago, the: propriety of the United States having any territory west of the Mississippi, was doubted, Then one range of States was allowed, and the India: laced. s@ as to prevent apy further progress Woaty i—that fedled Our le broke down all such barziers, and crossed the Rocky Mountains, and stand on the Pacific.

He was not disposed to hasten that day, nor was ho disposed to limit the enlarged view of democratic principles, under a democratic administration. (Agplause.) No man ean limit the future progress of this nation. No treaties can fetter the limbs of this great republic "It will grow; and in grow- ing, will burst them eaunder.

Don’t gentlemen know Wat when This cauat ts cumploted, the couutry on each side of it will be settled by Americans with Amorican feelings and principles, and who will have American insti- tutions? Will thix nation shut them out from its protes- tion? While he would do nothing, to hasten those events, he wished the public poliog of the nation to be so direct: as to look the future in the face.

Great Britain, seized upon the river San Juan, eight days after the treaty of peace with Mexico was concluded. ‘It was then known that the United States would acquire California. Har object was too apparent to be mistaken It was to cut us off from the Pacific. Knowing this, he did not sympathize in the expression of the Senator, that we ought to avoid any difficulty with se friewdly a nation as England. She was not friendiy. There was too much in the past to allow ip to exist. We have humbled her pride, and have mortified her vanity.
