NNR oe | | 5 daily have it in thejr power to throw obstacles in the way of the government. It is to this cause that the sluggishacas aud inefflelency of the Navy and War Departments have been, no doubt, ina great measure owing. The labors of! Mr. Potier’s committee will, however, it is to he hoped, soon relieve them from this clog upon their operations, and contribute to a more | prompt aud energetic discharge of their duties in conue wy Banasns—Wint Mx. onry BE PRorency sntt—The praises of the bankers who have vod one b dand fifty millions tor the use of the government sounded loudly everywhere, This is just. The Bible says that where a man’s treasure is there will his heart be alyo; and as our rich men have put their money at the disposal of the goveru- ment, it follows that their hearts must be pa- triotic, and w nen! also. rises is, what is to be h the wove 'The next question tha’ done with all this money? It is a matter of great importaave to what hands the expenditure of sueh an immense sum is to be entrusted At the recent session of Congress a committee was appointed to ascertaia whether secessionists were still employed by the goverument. That committee reported, Uirough their chairman, the Hon. Mr. Potter, of Wisconsin, a distin- ishod republican, that to their astonishment i d all the departments filled with Now it is well known that the sali ruitors, 1 matiers than the beads of departments them- selves, -They actually, through their manage- ment and influence, direct and ecntrol the ex- penditure of much of the money, If they are traitors, for whose benefit will the money be spent—for our own or that of the rebels? Take the Navy Department, for instanc which, if the report of the Hon, Mr. Potter true, is, like the others, full of traitors. Now, we will admit the Secretary of the y to be as siow and inefficient as his most intimate ac- quaintanees represent him to be; yet does that uly account for the utter and glaring deficien- cies in the administration of his department? Is there not reason to believe—or, rather, rely- ing upon My. Potter’s report, is there ground for a doubt—that Jeff. Davis’ interests are as much looked after in the Navy Department as those of our own government? Under these circumstances it might be well for the bankers and merchants of this and all other commercial cities to hold meetings at ence, and, without the least personal ill will towards Mr. Welles, petition the Pre- sident to place some man equally honest, but much more energetic, at the head of the Navy Department. This would be a good beginning; and if President Lincoln is the upright and in- telligent man that we all delight to consider him, he will not iurn a deaf ear to the patriotic remonstrances of the solid men who, at this critical period, have placed at his disposal one hundred and fiity millions of hard cash. There is no more eftective way to support the admi- nistration thun by eradicating—as our first move—from one of the most important depart- ments imbecility and treason at the same time. SrvrERson Buick ON THE Fine Zovaves.—Wo observe that Jefferson Brick has been furiously at- tacking the Fire Zouaves for running away at Bul- run, although many of them ran back again imme_, didiately afterwards. He has exhausted the lan. Guage in expressing his abhorrence of their con- duct, and is determined to give them no quar- ter. We have no doubt that there are some bad timbers in that regiment, as in every other, but that is no reason why the whole should be con- demned. Where two hundred men were lost there must bave been some bravery. But what most amuses us is to hear Jefferson Brick lecturing people about running away, for which he professes the utmost aversion, when he him- self ran fourteen miles before the enemy at Sol- ferino, and on the first alarm at Bull run fled precipitately, breaking his carriage, cutting the horse free from the harness and making the best of his way on the bhare-backed steed to Washington, und after all refused to pay for the damage done. A fine thing, indeed, for Jefferson Brick to preach about running away! We doubt not if there are runaways among the Zouaves they would be very useful in Brick’s running brigade. Swan Pickinas.—It will be seen by the pro. ccedings at the District Attorney's office yester. day that warrants have been issued against Robert J. Walker, ex-Governor of Kansas, and Zeno Secor, of Brooklyn, as sureties for George N. Sanders, late Navy Agent at this port, who is alleged to be a defaulter to the government to the amount of $21,000. This is a mere baga- telle, and is hardly worth sueing for. Under an administration during which the pickings and stealings of government officers counted by hundreds of thousands, so modest a haut only excites a smile. Small as it is, however, it is doubtful whether the securities are half as re- sponsible as in Fowler's (the Postmaster) case’ although in the end the responsibility of these latte#turned out to be legally good for nothing. Waar witt Becoms or mm Nexr Corron Cror?—The rebel government are trying to control it, for it is their last hope—the single plank to which they cling amid the waves. But we have the men, the money and the means to wrest it out of their hands. We will send hee tile columns to the cotton region when the crop is ready to take it to the North, and we will bring Manchester here to manufacture it, and cut off England not only from-all trade with this country, but from the markets of the world. ‘We can do this and set her at defiance if she dares to meddle with our internal affairs. We are a greater nation in every way than she was when she so long struggled against Napoleon and brought him down at last Let pertidious Albion beware.

THIRTY-SEVENTH REGIMENT, STATES VOLUNTEERS. Adjutant C. Murphy, of the Thirty-seventh regiment, Now York State Volunteers, has arrived here from tho seat of war.

The balance of the Twelfth regiment, New York State Militia, were paid off yesterday , with the one exeeption of Company I. The statement that has been made that a porticn of this mouey had been kept from them is incor- rect, euch soldier having received from the Paymaster the gum of $24 45. The payment has been going on for the last coupie of days, and, as we stated above, all have now received their money with the exception of one com- pany. This was a rather singular feature connected with the payment,of these men, which would go to show that the military spirit has by no means died out. As each person was paid the question was put to him—<Wiil you enlist again” and to this interrogatory moro than one half avewered in the affirmative, the balance probably having fumily tics or something urgent that compels them to remain, PRESIDENT’S LIFE GUARD.

LIEUTENANT COLONEL FARNSWORTH, SE- COND SCOTT LIFE GUARD, THIRTY-EIGHTH REGIMENT NEW YORK VOLUNTEERS. This gentleman, s0 well and favorably known a3 an cfficer in the Now York Volunteers in the late war with Mexico, and for his gallantry at the recent battle at Bull ran, as Lieutenant Colonel of the Thirty-eighth regiment New York Volunteers (Second regiment Soott Life Guard) , arrived in this city this morning from Virginia. He comes, by order of the War Department, for the purpose of establishing recruiting depots, ia order to recruit his regiment to the standard number of 1,000. The Scott Life Guard was greatly reduced in numbers at Ball ron by killed, wounded and missing, and now parades not more than half of its eriginal number. To those who are particularly inclined—and all should be at this time—we | commend this regiment to their notice, It is officered principally by men of oxperience, who have “ braved tho cannon’s mouth”? on the battle fields of Mexico, Lieut. Colonel Farnsworth waa originally a Second Lieutenant in the First regiment New York Volunteers, and was twice promoted for his galiantry on the field, receiving the com- mand of his company after the death of the gatiant Captain Van O'Linda at Chapultepee. At the battle of Bull run Lieutenant Coionel Farnsworth conducted himself so gallantly as to receive the especial notice of his immedi- ate commanders. The commandant of the brigade to eter he was attached thus refers to him iu his official report Where all acted 80 well it would appear invidious to make comparisons ; tit in the case ef Lieutenant Colonel Farnsworth, Thirty-cighth regiment, Leannot find words to express my admiration of his condiat.
