Carr, an old fa- miliar with the inside machinery of Tammany Hall, will bo apt to startle some of the brethren ignorant of the mysteries of the dirty old Wig- wam, and make even the most iccredulous fol- lowers of the bogue Sachems open their eyes. Mr. Carr addressee his letter to the Hon. Ema- nucl B. Hart, Sarveyor of the Port, and pats it in the shape of a democratic appeal to the said Hart to abandon the Tammany Purdy clique of spoilsmen, and to come over to that overwbelm- ing body of the city democracy as indicated in the vote of last fall between Mayor Wood aud Mr. Libby. We must admit, too, that unless the apecifications brought forward by Mec. Carr against the leaders of this Pardy clique can be refuted, it is the duty and the policy of Mr. Hart to follow without delay the advice of his friend, and come over at once to the legitimate and sub- stantial body of the party. Assuming that the witnee= bofore us is a credible and well informed witness—that his statem-nte 4 8 public officer, We of course cannot be answerable for the correctnes of M. De Leon's | concerning the several individuals arraigned are statements, but knowing him to have gained the | true—that the clique of which they are the publy expressed approbation pf his fellow coun- | trymen in Egypt on former ozcasions, we think it | bat just to him to give insertion to his letter. We | will merely remark in connection with it that per | fons piaced in Mr. De icon’s position have a difficult card to play, and that it is impossible for them to porsue the straight course of duty without arousing hostility. It is, therefore, the more necessary that of right they should be sustained by the voice of pubic opinion. } Goveral Walker left this city yesterday, en route or Naabville. He was accompanied by Captain Faywoux. In this connection we wil! direct atten- chiefs is utterly selfish, treacherous and corrupt — thatite treacheries and corruptions have demo- ralized, broken up and destroyed the democratic party ot New York, city and State--that the present aims and ends of this unscrupulousclique are spoils and plunder—plunder and spoi's and nothing else—is it not clearly the duty of every honest recipient of the favors of Mr. Buchanan to abandon this clique forthwith and forever? Can any good democrat serve two masters? Can any consistent democrat claim to be a friend of the administration at Washington while playiog tion to the statements which are published intoday’s | into the bands of the Seward conspirators at paper of thirty of the returned filibusters, who are now inmates of the hospital at Bellevue, nnder- poing medical treatment. Their opinions of General Walker are not very Sattering. At eleven o'cloc’ yesterday forenoon, Mr. Tilden, | counsel for the contestants, proceeded with the argu- | Albany? Can any man be trusted who preaches democracy and acts with this Seward oligarchy? Can the democratic party of this city and State be reorganized upon such « footing as this?

Mr. Edwards spoke from three to seven o'clock. Dr. Dean then opened his fins! argument in the case, and declared his ‘willingnoss to let the care stand or fall upon the tea timony of Miss Angusta Cunningham. sefore the conclusion of Mr. Dean's argument the Court ad- journed till this morning. The Excice Commissioners held a mecting yester- dsy, ond granted fourteen storekcepers’ and eleven | innkeepers’ licenses.

But they will leave no stone untarn- | ed to reach him and manage him, or to break bim down. In this view Mr. Corr comes opportaacly to the assistance of Mr. Schell, aed thie letter to Mr. Hart will strengthen the independent posi- tion of the Collector, through the valaable infor- mation which it will give to tbe President. We all know that Mr. Bachanan is an amiable and generous man; but we know, too, that he is « just man. And let the trimmers and tricketers who have deceived him beware, At the same time there has been a little re actionary movement among the bogus Sachems ot Tammany Hall worthy of cepecial notice. On Monday night Inet the delegutes chosen in the various wards, under the directions of the so- called reform convention, to make up the Old Men’s Committee, awembled in Tammany to choose a chairman. The Purdy men kept up the battle till midnight, when they were, unexpected- ly to themselves, defeated in the defeat of Purdy and the election of Samuel Cooper. This was a substantial victory for Mayor Wood, and the de- legates from the ward of Mr. Dan Sickios contri- bated In « good degree to bring it about, though very much to the sstoniehment of Mr. Sickles himself. And this ts but the beginning of the ending. To the chiefs of this bogus democratic league sgalnst our local and foderal administra- tion, the worst is yet to come. For the present, we leave the parties concerned to the digestion of the letter of Mr. Garr. Te speaks for nimeelf, and not for wa Tis object is to reecue a pervonal and party friend from the quilloting; and we trust that the appeal to this end will be heeded.

It enca practices prevail itis not eurprising that charges of corraplion should 80 frequently be made, We casnot understand how avy honest officer can receive extra compensation for the performance of his outy, for which he is fally paid by the govern- ment, and particularity whea the receipt of sach extra compensation is prohibited and made a pe- nal offerce by law. Is would be difficult for of- ficers eho receive this illegal compensation to | convinee the public toat they would not, if they do vot, likewise take pay to aid and facilitate their employers in the perpetration of fraads upon the revenue. These charges have, from time to time, been brought to the notice of the Treosury Department; and we have reason to be- lieve ‘hat it is the determisatioa of the present Secretary, as well as of the new Collector, to dis- any rervices whatever. Any officer who desires to retain his place may as well, therefore, make aesure bim if he dors not he will be dismissed and disgraced upon the first well grounded sus- picion that he is guilty of such illegal conduct. We learn that it is the expressed determination of the Secretary ot the Treasury and the new Colleetor that the New York Custom Hous» and Jl its officers ehal! be, like Cxsar’s wife, not only without guilt, but witbout suspicion. A thorough examination, under the direction of the Treasury Department, has recently been | mad+ by competent persons into the various do- partments of the collection of the customs of ; New York, acd a number of changes will be | made. to enable importers to bave their business atterded to, and their merchandise examined and delivered, without the necessity of invoking the aid of any of the officers, either by persoual eupplication or pecuniary compensation; indeed neither of them will be of the least avail, for no preference will be allowed to be given to any one over enother, but all will be treated alike, and the business of all promptly and satisfactorily attended to. Under these ciroumstances we trust the mer- chants and shipowners of the port will, one and all, refuse to give any extra compensation to acy Officers for any services or information. How can any honest mercbant or shipowner do so when he knows it is in violation of the laws of the Jand, and subjecte him to 9 prosecation and conviction of bribery? No merchant who re- garde bis own character will be gailty of such an ect, but will rather, it bis business is not properly or promptly attecd+d to by any officer, appeal immediately to the Collector for redresa. Indeed, in all cases, we bave reason to believe it is de sired by the Collector that all complaints o Official misconduct sball be made to him, eo that & proper Temedy can be promptly applied. and justly, too—at the delays and difficulties in the passage of merchandise through the ap- praisers’ office. It is now understood that all merchandise sent to the appraisers’ stores for | examination will be examined as soon as sont there—generalty the eame or the next day—and will, as soon as it is passed upon by the ap- importer’s order, or sent by a public porter to | the store or warehouse of all importers who so request of the Collector. The merchandice of those who will neither send for it as soon as it is passed upon, nor anthorize it to be sent to their it | | , | etores or warchouses, will be immediately | et the risk and ¢ xpense of the owner to No. Broad street, there to await their order and the payment of the expenees of porterage, storage, «>, Theee regulatiovs have become absolutely necessary for the despatch of the large and in creasing business of tbe appraisers Merchan- Give sent for examination must be removed from their stores immrdiately, and it is hoped that all the importers will take the proper steps to aid tbe Collector in carrying into effect the regula- tions referred to. If they do this it will bea great saving to them of time and labor, as well as of money. They will obtain poswssion of each package of their goods sent for examins- tion as soon as it is puesed, without the trouble and expenre as now of obtaining a permit from the Collecter’s office or dancing attendance at the sppraisers’ or Collector's office for days or weeks, to find out when it is passed. Onur mer- chants will certainly meet this disposition of the department by promptly calling at the Colleo- tor’s office and giving their written requests as required. Nor in this alone, but in all other of- forte of the government to facilitate the business of the port in vindicating ite good name, our merchante will find it their best interest to give their countenance and aid. Hore: Ratrs.—We notice paragraphs in va- rious country papers intimating that one of the hotels of this city etood out against an alleged pro- posed rise in hotel rates, and still continues to ac- commodate travellers at $2 50 perdiem. The object of the paragraph is to produce the im- pression that all the first class hotels of this city —excopt the one in question—have raised their rates to #3 per day. Such an impression would be contrary to the fact. None of the first class city hotela have raised their rates to three dollars per day. Tra- vellers can be accommodated at the Astor Eouse, the St Nicholas, the Union Place, the Evorett, the New York, and the Clarendon at the old rates, and in the old syle, The proprictors of there houses are enabled to maintain their emi nent character without increase of charges ; though they neither get up Valley Banks or Potosi stocks, nor pabli-h false statements with & view to pafl their own and injure their acigh bors’ basin sa, miss eny officer who shall be known or believed | to receive avy compeusation from any persou for | up his mind to be content with his salary, for we | Great complaints have heretofore been made— | | Praiser and found correct, be delivered to the | | overshadowing sectional party in the North—a | \ | | | | | | | | | | weight of moral secoantability which lice on the shoulders of a member of a Board of Health It is in his energy and juegment, but above ull in his bonesty of parposd, that the people have to confide for immunity from those fearful epidemical vidtations which periodiculiy thin their ranks. If a man shoald prove e rogue ia this capacity, then is he uaGtted for any otber place of trust; for it may safely be #eeumed that he has no sense of religion or of pubiic principle—no belief in the reward of cor- rect conduot either in this world or the vext. It was with feelings of intense diszust that we watched the progress of the recent dispute in re- gard to the logation of the new Quarantine hos- pital. I¢ was apparent to us from the first that the difficuitics that bist that question arose leas trom tbe desire to consuls the public safety than fiom the struggles of ictereeted speculators and property bolders. The result of that sqaabble will probably be that the yellow fever will find in its new quarters more facile means of disscmi- etion, and that we shall find the remedy worse than the original evil Scarcely has the spectacle furnished by this controversy been merged into a contest of pbysical force with the people whose interests bave been more immediately affected by the change, than another case of a reprehensible cbaracter presents itself to our notice. A charge has just been preferred against Aldermen Preston ond Walsh—membere of the Brooklyn Board of Health—of having condoned, for a beavy bribe, a serious tnfringement of the sanita. ry regulations of the Board, to the great peril of the pnblic health. The evidence laid before the committce of investigation appointed by the Common Council must have been of rather a strong complexion, from ihe fact that they re- ported resolutions recommending that the ap- pointment of these Aldermen as members of the Board of Health, be rescinded, and that Alderman Preston be expelled from the Com- mon Council. By an amendment, supported by the friends of the parties implicated, the report was tabled, but ordered to be printed, and the 9th of Jwy fixed for them to be heard in their defence. In the meanwhile the accused Aldermen have resigned thcit seats as members of the Board of Tealth, protesting, it should be addcd, against what they consider the one-sided | character of the inquiry before the committee. Alderman Walsh asserts that he was not afforded an opportunity of defending himself by the cross- examination of his accuser, and that he will be able to show that he did not maliciously or designedly do wrong. In this stage of the proceedings it would not of course be proper for ns to pursue our comments any further. Without pronouncing any opinion on the culpability or innocence of the parties in- crimioated, we may, however, be permitted to soy that the fact of such an accusation being | made at all, argues a highly corrupt and de- moralized state of society, and shows that the people do not exercise much discrimination as to the antecedents of the men whom they elect to public oflices. Mn. Srraxen Banus on Nationa, Pourrios— From the letter of Mr. Speaker Banks—which we publish to-day—it will be seen that he is sanguine of a Northern republican sectional victory in the next Presidential election. But Mr. Banks con- fines himself to a very narrow view of the drift of political events. We have already existing an violent sectional party is in process of formation in the South, and before the expiration of twelve months we shall probably have it in full blaze. Thus we shall have a Northern anti-slavery and « Southern pro-slavery party arrayed against | each other, like the white and red roves. Bat is it likely that the solid business interests of the country, North or South, will engage in this sectional war of discord and disunioa? No. The conservative capitalists, merchante, bankers, rail- road men and manufacturers of the North, and the elaveholding planters of the South, will find their property, their interests aud their safety all tied up together in the Union, and they will or ganize a great Unioa party, which will carry off the victory. The Presidential fight of 1556 was a mixed up affair—the great battle of 1860 will be clear and definite. We shall have three parties in the ficld— a Southern secession party, a Northern disunion party, and, standing betwoon these fierce ex- tremes, a great solid conservative national and universal Union party, which will carry off the cream of the Buchanan party, the Fremont party and the Fillmore party of 1856. The sec- tiona) ultras of the late Fremont, Buchanan and Fitmore parties will go off to the two sectional parties, Thus we shall have, firet,a complote breaking up of the old partics; second, a com- plete reorganization of parties; and third, a great triumph of the new Union party in 1960. We commend this view of the subject to the at- tention of Mr. Banks.
