Aaayy, Jan. 6, 1858. Mr. Comptroller Gurch has stopped a leakage of the treasury, for which he people will highly commend him. ‘It appears that a pretice has prevailed among the Judges {in the State of claiaing, and in many instances receiv- fing, from the treasry extra payment for services per- formed in the exerise of the duties of their office. The ‘Comptrolior statesthat he examined the matter with much care, by refrence to the constitution and statutes ‘of the State, from .ll which he can find no authority, for extra payment of ddges for furnishing the government ‘withreports, opinies, notes or testimony im cases of cri- minal conviction. He very justly remarks:—“<I am Batisfied tha: Judgs are not entitled to receive any com- pensation whateve for making these reports. The con- Btitution intendedbat the salary to be paid by law Bhould be jn lieu oall other compensation for official ser- ‘vices; they are rquired to do do this as apart of their Official duty as Jniges, and to receive payment for it ‘would be a dires violation of the constitution, prohi- biting the receip/ of fees or perquisites im lieu of his pelary. The constution declares that no officers shal) receive this.” From this correct view of the present Comp- troller it i# pefectly evident that his predecessors Lave, undoubted, through a misapprehension of the coustitotion aod aws, or probably through a neglect of wiaking 4 (boronh examination of them, paid out money from the trea-ur to Judges upon similar applications, now 80 justly refusedby the Comptroller.

Our Washington Correspondence.

Thus for pit echemes are inn etate of preparation, end not de- veloped for public conriderntion. Qolt wants an exiension of his patent; MeCormick is anxious to obtain « renewal of bis monopely ; the rvbber interests are probably working to get thetr matters in shape to go before the House, but as yet all parties are at sen, drifting about to find the best baven in the committees, and waiting for the representa- ive man in the House to turn un. Sofar as 1 can ascor- tain—and I am looking ciosely for all facts connected with the operations of the iobby—the various parties reprec:ot- ing the patent interests are “lying low,” for the preseut, without @ programme of action, and destitute of a full or- ganization upon any of the measures to which I havo al- luded, Tn due season the committoos will commence their reporta,#od then the lobby will be fairly before tho country in al! its length and breadth. The ‘“costivencss” of Washington newspaper corros- pondents upon various important questions is mainiy | which will expire June 30, , appropriates the mum of ten mihiions of Conclusion is ingertable that either the estimates submitted for the expenditures of government have beer carelessly made ous by the proper executive villcers in Previous administrations, or that the Committees of Ways | and Means in previous have not been esarch ing in their investigation, and accurate im their action in reepect to these arpropriations. The Committees of Ways and Mcaps, | am inclined to believe, are rathor to be com mended than otherwise, for they have, as I know, wai formiy oppoved amendments to bills which, while appro priating emalleums for mquiring into the expediency of doing certain things, Se., &e., sorved as entering w for millions. Five thousand dullars is voted for ascertaining the prac- ficability of doing a certain and Uj are entered into for bundroda of thousands. of expenditures which aweil up these difeiency bile, and ae). of expenditures which are in violation of the epirit of Lhe constitution. It js stated that the presont House will eustain the pro- gent Committee of Ways and Means in holding exccutive officers to @ strict accountability to the law, and establish it as a rigid rule that expenditures shall be made only for the objects etated tn the law; and when they havo exbausted work must cease until the further necessary appropriations are made. There is 00 wore popular charaoteriatic of the demo- cratic party than its approval of economical admunistration of the government—that the public money sball be ex- attributable to the infuence of the lobby. Parties having claims against the government, or a measure for a patent extension, a ateamebip line, a land grant, or any matter of private speculation, as preliminary action consider it ne- ceseary to ‘‘see”’ the correspondents, such as may be re- commended, with a view to securing afavorable notice, ‘or their silence, ae may best suit tho oads contemplated. As @ general thing Washington correspondents are not 80 gifted with a sufficiency of this world’s goods as to render them impervious to the approachee of the lobby and consequently they are insensibly drawn into & vortex from which there is no oacapo. No class of men in Washington aro more cx- posed to this kind of temptation than those same corres- pondents. They are sought after, and the influence of good society, good dinners, and a supply of money, are too ‘attractions to be ‘resisted; they fall uy or suddenly into the measures presented to them, and are at- tacked with a kind of moral dyspepsia, extremely hard to cure. The expense of living in Washington is extremely high, and few rs in the country can afford to support @ correspondent here independent of some outside resource ; hence the wrtter, however well disposed, is forced to have recourse to other means than his pen to maintain himself, ‘and the lobby making the bast bid, secures him, I do not mean to offer thia in disparagement of the corps now here. I merely design to give ‘t as a cause of the effect which you notice in your remarks upon the ‘ coa- tiveness of the letter writers in Washington. It is to be hoped that the corps will cut iteeif adrift from the lobby, ifeuch a thing be possible. An important question in law was argued ip the Su- preme Court last week. The suit is one of the most in- terminable series comme ced by Mr. Horace H. Day against the violators of the Chaffee patent, and was com- menced in the Tietrict Court of Connectient against Mr. Nathaniel Heyward. The suit was dismissed from the Court below and comes ap here upon the apoeal of Mr. Day. The question involves a great constitutional principle, and the decision wil! be looked upon with much interest, as establishing a prececent vital importance in suite at law. It appears that Mr. Heyward is a resident in Rhode Island, but owns property in Connecticut. Upon this ‘property Mr. Day lays an attachment, with a view of forcing Mr. Heyward to answer bis (D.’s} suit in that district. The ruling ha uniformly been that @ person should only answer a cause where he may be found, and not be compelled to follow a suit into another district simply because be happened to own property there. The Court in Connecticut maintaining this sensible and equitable view of the law dismissed the case, and hence the appeal. The decision will be rendered | in afew days. There is another case involving the sam: principle yet to be argued before the court. The suit is ought by Edwin M. Chaffee, as trustee of Horace H.

Every step in the debate exhibits some new deformity in the present system of the public printing, and each day exposes some new swindle in the way of Congressional bookmaking. While the subject is freeh before the peo- ple, it may be proper to mention some acts in relation to the public printibg which have not yet been made public. The Thirty-third Congress divided the printing between Beverly Tucker and Gen. Armstrong, of the Union—the Senate electing the former and the House the latter. Wen- dell was Tucker's man of business, and had the superin- tendence of the Senate printing. Gen. Armstrong died dur- ing the first session of that Congress, I believe, and Judgo — Nicholson became Senate printer, as thesurving partner of the Union establishment. It was at this time that Wondell | exbibited his peculiar talonts in business fincase. Having | control of the Senate printing, he saw that # very | good thing could be made by a communion of interests be- | tween the Sentinel and Union in regard to the Congres- sional printing, a great saving being effected in composl: | tion by such a union.
