Experience proves that political prominence, to the extent particular ty of a connection with the Executive Department of the retion, is by ne mesns compatible with the cbances of being elevated to the Proesidentia! cbair; and in this view of the matter, 4s also the favorable position which he now occupies us the most prominént among Southern aspirants, it is iw probable that the Governor will accept any poaition whic’ might impair bis gocd prospects im the fatare, The biga degree of appreciation which Mr. Buchanan | uaderawo: to entertain of him, and the grateful manner in which | am informed, he speaks of bis services in securing both big nomination and election, justify the belief that ta: Governor could command the highest office in bis gilt but that he wi.) avail himself of suob @ favor, at least 10 bis own regard, 1s considered ex! doubt ‘The case of R.

Now, however, the old war breaks forth with new fary. The hards are those now in possession of the offices. The cliques that surround the Ohio statesman and Cincinnati En- quirer, and the Postmasters throughout the State, are the most ultra of the nigger drivers. The ob- ject of the ins is, of course, to keep in; bat the outs have their usual passion for place. The ins are strong and tenacious; but it will be remembered that the original Buchanan men of this city gave him the first start in the West. They called and held the first meeting outside of Penosylvania de- manding the nomination of Buchanan, and of course they must be provided for, though a majori- ty of them are old soilers and ex-Kno@ Nothings. The leaders of the democratic party here vow, are the very men who most conspicuously bolted from the democratic ranks when the Nebras- ka excitement first became epidemic. Those who stood fire best on that issue, now have back seata. The Enquirer is the organ of the hards in this city, and is edited by Alexander Walker, late of the New Orleans Delta. In its issue of the 11th it pro- pored the following Cabinet, urgiug with ponderous paragsapbs the claims ot each name: Svorewry of Stace, Herechal V, Jobuston; Secretary of Treasury, Daniel 8. Dickinson; Secretary of War, Johu ‘A Quitman; Secretary of Navy, James A. Bayard; Secre tary of Interior, Joseph A. Wright; Postmaster consi, Benjamin F. Haliett; Atiorney General, John W. venson. The Enquirer also recommended the infusion into the incoming administration of a “‘deeh of audacity,” This, you discover, is fillibusters all over. It is Pierre Soulé, and the class of men whom he repre- sents, playing their first card here, by means of the Enquirer, a paper centrally located, but edited, we understand, by a man fresh from New Orleans, who is in favor of suddenly annexing Cuba aud Nioara- gua—with a ‘dash of audacity”—and, I am told, is personally warmly in favor of the openiog of the slave trade with africa, though it is not Foticlons to print such doctrine here yet. With Johnston of Georgia tor Secretary of State, and Quitman of Mis- sissippi for Secretary ot War, how long do sup- pore we would be at peace? Why, we would be ut war with all the “rest of mankind” within six months. Yet in this Enquirer's Cabinet, and its re- commendation of a “dash of audacity,” you mt Awe eee of the Sroesiars of = Southwest—those who ly hunger a thirst after Cuba, and Bi ap their hands for Central America. But this is not satisfactory to all the democracy hereabout. It does not entirely plesse either hards or softs There is general curs- ing that the editorial importation from Louisiana should not be able to select one of the “ favorite rons” of Ubio for a place in the Cabinet, but should reek for timber for each cabinet officer in “ furria pets.” The hurds do not like is, because their man tor Postmaster General is Col. Sam. Medary, of Ohio Statesman, tamiliarly called the “ Old Wheel Hoss” of the democracy of Ohio. He was, how- ever, very bitter »gainet Buchanan, and intense ‘or Douglas, and will, 1 imagine, have to be havg up todry. He will, however, be an ugly snag to Tun over. The latest about the cabinetmaking is that a consultation bas been held at Columbus among the Jeading men of the softs, or the Buchanan wen of the State. Hon. Wiliam Allen, ex-Senator, end Hon. James J. Faran, Mayor of this city, and rome half dozen other distinguished politicians of that school, trom various the State, bave been in close caucus in Columbug this week. the thing they aim at is to fix npon Western man for the Cabinet, (and I think their choice is Bright, of Indiana.) and to provide for the general removal of the oflice holders in the State, their pla-es to be filled by original Buchanan men. There is quite a fiutter among the office holders here, as to whether their beacs will be taken off or saffered to remain; and the general anticipation i+ thet they must fall. A hot and exci traggle between the bards and softs of the istration party of Yo? will be ia a blast —. ‘t me add a paragraph re! i agaonten that the Jist of cabinet officers given in inquirer with such editorial pomp—the editor of that paper being fresh from New Orleans, and a fillibuster of the most rampant kind, and the Enquirer being tae Buchanier paper, printed in the convention city, the outside pressure of which did so much toward the nemivation of Mr. Buchanan—is a matter of special significance, Tne finger of Soulé and A.

Sanitary Precautions on Board Vessels. TO THE EDITOR OF THE HEKALD. Nonvork, Va , Nov. 16, 1856. In the Hrnaup of Novem er 15 appears the fol- owing article:— Sbipe arriving at this port report an alarming mortality on board, The ship Deuau, whieh arrived on Thursday, bad twenty-four deaths onthe passage The Haward anc Humboldt srrived yesterday, had respectively twenty tix and thirty reven Ceatbs on the voyage Sarely remus rigid inquiry should be inetuated as to the cause of tots frightul mortality, vee with you, sir, that something oaght to be done, and ask to offer a few suggestions: — First, letevery ship carrying passengers be re- quired, before taking in cargo, to be pumped out dry, fresh water edmitied, and then that pumped out; next have the hole dried by a stove or ston s Jaced on the keelson, and a large and continuoas fre kept ap for not less than twelve hours before ccinmencing to load, and by this means the heat 1 dissipate and canse to ascend the noxious and unhealthy atmosphere which will escape at the batches, and its place be sv mae by fresh and healthy air. Indeed, if a epace could be left in stowing the cargo by which a stove could be placed at the bot- tom of the ship, and in damp and changesble weather a fire kindled in it, 1 doubt not it would add greatly to the bealth of the crew and passeogers. In_1855, | wrote an article which was published in the Naitonal Intelligencer, in which I cied instances of the bealthy and purifying effects of heat in cellars, bedrocme and in damp weather, and since that time Tam more thoroughly convinced of the correctnoss of my theory. But before I close this article, per- mit me to make one or two other snggestions rela- tive to the health on board pasee ships: Although most of our sea capieins deservedly high as beld, energetic and competent sailors, yet there are many of them “ too big for their breeches,” and when they etane on the quarter deck of a “ square vigper” they ure prouder and grander than even the Tresident himeelt. They never during the go forward of the mainmest, but trust all to mates, who are often unfeeli haughty, filthy and tyrwnnical. The captain of # ship should hunself examine all the apartments of the passengers, see that they are cleaned every day daring the 3 wnd this shonld be done by parsons belvaging fo te d ot trusted to steerage passengers. whe are ven sick and unable to perform the duty. je should also ree that their persons and clothes are kept clean, and require them to shift their gar- ments; for unless compelled ta do it, there is such an indifferent let-me-alone feeling attending se a sickness that emigrants wil come the whole voyage without once changing their clothes, which of ir noes diveare. [| would also require that every ship should bave on deck bath houses, and all passen gers should bec Hed to bathe at stated periods during the trip. thing like mili Tole and discipline miuet be ebeerved and enforced on board emigrant end other sbins; and Congress shonid at ite next session legislate on this sniject. I have thrown out these few hints, hoping that older and wiser heads tay consider them more m:- turely, and if aged Peg a in eee, at Joust try the ¢: ent, and they will per be f 10 pk at the health and comfort’ of some poor unfortupate fellow beings.

Goleman and Robert D, SUiinose te the Hudson River Bridge Company at Albamp—These canes are still under argument. The leading features in the depositions and affidavits submitted on bebalf of the defendants are as follows :— ‘That it does not appear that the United States govere- ment bas taken avy action whatever for the improve. ment of the river at and near Albany, except prior to the year 1841, The works contemplated prior to that date have been sbandoned, and suffered to go into dilapida- tion, If making appropriations and attempting toim- [netmapr before that date proves at all any jurisdiction, the subsequent action shows jt to have beep wbendoned, Ni yropriation bas been made since 1862 tnd bowing has beso done since the experiments mado dy many years before, Tne work as wo injury w theee relers to state of things thom existing,, raw of seventy feet wide—toat being the larg- thovght ia, He says expressly that it is OD account ot the juences tbe pters wou.d produce that he thinks tbey would inter+ fere with the !mprovemeuts then contemplated.
