One of the worst mistakes in the cbarter of 1857 is that which makes the Re- ceiver of Taxes a subordinate head of bureau, appointed by the Comptroller, The collection of the city revenues, whether by tax or assersment, should be made entirely separate from the duties of disbureement. By consolidating these two sets of duties it is plain that but a limited amount of bookkeeping abili- ty would be required to make the receipts and payments balance at the end of the fiscal year. With every disposition to do full justice to the integrity of our new Comptroller and bis subor- dinates, yet we must insist, asa general princi- ple for the transaction of financial business, that it would be safer, wiser und more in accor iance with estublished usages to make the collecting and disbursing departments of the city in- ment entirely independent of each other, as in this way each would be a check’ on th+ other's operations, and the returns of “amounts col- lected” and “amounts disbursed” must render it an easy matter at any moment to ascertain the exact condition aud prospects of the city trea- sury. The mere object of consolidatiag patron- age under the Comptroller is hardly worth the fatal concession which this amendment of Me.

It was an honor he had furly deserved by bis exertions to bring this new State into the Union. Expansion was in future the policy of our country, and cowards alone feared and opposed it. Thauk- ‘ing them for the honor paid bim, the President concluded by calling for ‘Yankee Doodle,” which was performed by the band. Vice President Breckinridge, in another part of the city, declared that whenever he could, he had given the Dillw puab, and expected next Monday to swear in both Senators. Having been called upon to say something bout Cuba, he remarked that we talked too much and did too little. When England wished todo a thing she did %t and talked afterwards.

In a recent report of the Senate’s Committee on Naval AMairs, it is stated that we not only have fewer guns afloat, in proportion to our commercial tonnage? than we had a quarter of a century ago, but that our navy, in ships and guns, is weaker, in comparison with that of Great Britain, than it was at the close of the war of 1812. In 1857 our ‘entire navy afloat comprised twenty-nine vessels, carrying fix hundred and twenty-eight guns, and these were featiered allover the globe; while, at the same time, Great Britain had about our own coust thirty-four veesels, carryig seven handred and ninety-four guns.

Of this amount, 85,182 tons were procured through the coal agents appointed by the department in 1851, whose commissions amounted to $18,358. Mr. James Polk and Mr. ©. HH.

Among those who have been to Washington from New York wbout the business of President making is Feruaudo Wood, late Mayor of your city, who is made famous all over the couptry—the only Mayor you have ever had who is known to fome, good, bad or iudiftevent.

From the action of the democratic caucus of members of Congress last night, and from the tone of feeling exhibited to-day in reference thereto, it is evident a more united sentiment prevails in the party with regurd to the condi- tion of the treasury and the necessities of government. ‘The resolotions offered by Mr. Photps, the Chairman of the Commitwe of Ways aud Means, which were adopted, donot meution @ modification of the tariff, {t would appear fron this that Mr, Phelpe has changed somewhat his position, Yet it is said he has not abandoned the hope of making some change to increase the revenue, and that his reasons for Lot paring the tarilf in caucus were simply pruden- tial—that he deemed it wise not to raise the question. But the simple fact of treating this question, the most im. portant ove, eo tenderly, and with a sort of disguise, shows & want of confidence in his power to do anything with it, Whatever effort he may eit will be inde- pendent of bis party. Certainly he 1s tess earnest and ur. gent fora modification of the tari tuan he was some weeks ago. It is difficult to foreteli what this capricious and trifling Congress will do, but I am persuaded it will not change the tariff. Mr. Phelps doubtiess has good reasons for changing his position, ‘These are, I apprehend, the very promising condition of the revenue within the last few weeks, with the prospect of a general revival of trade, and the impos- sibility of induemg lis party at this late day of the ses- sion to enter upon a revision of the tariff. Some good may arise from the present financial neces sities of the government, It may lead to a thorough overhauling of the extravagances, abuses aud leaks in our national alairs, There is nothing like a (uaocial re- vulsion for a good overhauling of the account bovks; and when a man is reduced to straightened circumstances he is likely to become improved in his habits. Under this fit of Congressional economy we may expect to ece a sudden and an extraordinary exodus from Wasi ington of crowds of lobby men, With the expectation of achange in the tariff, the iron interest of Peansyivauia, the wool interest of New England, and other interests havo filled Washington with their agoats.

We also subsequently siated that it would be weil for the Court, in order to free itself from the shadow of suspicion or injustice, to refuse the curtomary counsel feeonarecovery. We have since discovered that the Court have no diecretion whatever in awarding coste in any ac- tion brought before them, The Jaw provides that “In all actions commenced in said (Marine) court, where the amount recovered shall be one hundred dollars or more, the plaintiff, when the defendant does not appear, shall recover the sum of seven doliars; and in all such cases, where an issue shall be joined and a trial bad, the sum of twelve dollars as costs, in addition to the fees now allow- ed by law.” (Laws of 1853, page 1,1€5.) The Legislature of 1868 passed an act restricting the jurisdiction of this conrt to two hundred dollars ip all actions brought against the city, at the same time depriving the district courts of any jurisdiction whatever of such causes. ‘The recorde of the Marine Court show conclusively that in almost every action which has been brought againgt the city before that tribunal, for "several years past, the Counsel of the Corporation bas cither appeared himself in person, or by his representative, and pot in answors to the complaints, and that the causes have been regularly triod before one of the judges. Of course, if the court, on the trial, had committed avy errors it was the privilege of either perty to take an appeal, A man having a claim againet the city for $2,000 may assign $100 each to twenty different men; a recovery, however, can only be had in ove case if the city take the proper exceptions, which can be done in this way: After interposivg an auswer to the first case, Jet the city put in a plea in abatement as to all the rest, That is to say, let the Corporation Counsel plead to all but the first action—“a suit pending,” or rather after one jndgment is recovered that can be effec- tually pleaded in bar to auy further recovery on the same original cause of notion, aud would prevent a recovery in all but one of the actions. It is not the duty of, nor would it become the Court iteelf to interfere in these matters when the city is defended by counsel appointed especially for that purpose. The Justices of the Marine Court, like all other Judges, act indifferently between the plaintiff and defendant, whether either be the city or an individual. Obituary. CAMPBELL P. WHITE.
