INTERESTING DEVELVOPEMENTS RESPRCTING THE COR- RUPTION CHARGE—THE HARLEM RAILROAD, ETC Ausant, Fed. 18, 1859. ‘This morning the select committee of the Senate, insti- tuted to inquire into the charges made by Senator 0. B, ‘Wheeler, held their first meeting. Mr. Wheeler appeared before them as@ wituess. He stated that a member of the Benate had undertaken to induce or persuade the Ser- geant-at-Arms from subpouning witnesses to appear be- fore the committee investigating the Albany Bridge ques- tion. It seems tho name of that Senator was not divulged, and when ft is it seems that some satisfactory explanation may be made to the matter. It is scarcely possible that apy member of the Legislature will dare to resort to any measure to thwart the committee while endeavoring 4o elicit the truth in regard to the charges made that the bridge Jaw was carried through ae ‘Legislature through the corrupt influence of money. the honor of the Legislature it is hoped that no auch trans. sotion ‘can bedastened upon any member. The testimony the Sergeant a Arms on this point is looked for with pty interest. The information was algo imparted to the select this morning, that William D. Murphy, of this ay aa gentleman a'iuded to by Senator Wheeler as ‘the some friend of his who rofused a large sum ~" money, tendered by a lobbyman, to induce hin (Genator W.) to ‘abstain’ from invostigating the bridge matters.” . Murphy is a highly a and worthy resident of the city of Albany, and is the author of a cle- ver little volume pares to give personal sketches of some of the membors of the Legislature.

Mr. Diven, the other member of the committee, is of opinion that no efficient police can be secured until the system is divorced from politics; that the great evil of the times js the partisan character that is given to depart- ments of government, the duties of which involve no governmental principles, but are ey, sanitary, in which put citizen oe alike interested. He said, ‘It is to be ex- and probabl; ‘4 desired, that the country should be Reged into Politica parties, being an honest difference of opinion; such discussions lead to vigilance on the part of the party out of power, im detecting the errors the one in power; and caution on the oe of the responsible party, iu avoiding measures that will not bag severe criticism. But when parties seek to perpetuate their power by making the department of or munkapel government subservient to partisan dicta- tion, the fafluenee must be demoralising, both on the de- partment and the government at large. The provision of a eyo is to secure obedience to law and preserve order— to afford security to life and property ; and the discharge of these duties can have no legitimate connection with Political differences. Still, so potent is the powor of the police organization in our cities, that while it 4 the creature ‘of one | pol it can be ted to be exercised dependent of tay "bias. fn eed, what led to the establishment of the Me- tropolifan police was mainly the subserviency of the police department of the city 3¢ New York to the wants of partisan schemes.
