From WAsHINGToN. "A letter from
Washington, published in the Richmond
Wing, makes the following statement,
which we have good reason to deem eA-
act Nat. Ga1.
cit is now conceded that all the i'm
portant Committees Of the House of Re-
representatives., were constituted with u
scrupulous regard to the wishes of the
under Cabinet, and that the Bank Com
mittee was arranged under the special
advisement Of the President himself.
speak with some confidence on the sub
ject, as my information is derived from
the best authority. But should the po-
litcal caste of the Committee fail to esta-
blish the truth of the alleg cation, would,
with the utmost reliance, appeal to the
fact, that at least twenty or thirty men,
bers of the House, in the course of
twelve or fourteen hours after the pas
sage Of the resolution of the Committee
of Ways and Means, beset the Execu-
tive mansion with unseemly importuni-
ties for appointments Oh this grand In
QUESTION of the Government. l could
name individuals who waited upon Gen
eral Jackson for the purpose: and | put
it TO any Ofthe candid members Of "the
party" at the Capitol, whether MIR. Tho
mas, Of Maryland, was not named by
the President, as Chairman Of the Com
mttee."

From the Springfield Gazette.

For The last fortnight or three weeks,
our farmers have been busily engaged
in haying and harvesting; and they could
hardly have desired more propitious wea-
ther for this purpose. The grass crops
have been abundant, well dried, and Sc
curely gathered. The crops ofryc have
also. we believe, with few exceptions,
well repaid the toll Of the husbandman.
Considerable damage was done to the
wheat, it having been very generally in
this vicinity, blasted and shrunk, suppos-
ed to have been owing to heavy rains,
followed by several successive days OF
extremely hot weather. The fields OF
Indian corn now look very finely, (hav-
ing Of late rapidly advanced under the
influence Of high temperature and
promise a rich harvest. The other crops
are generally promising.

From the New-York Adyocate.

1t will be seen that the reflux of the
tide OF commerce is bringing back the
precious metals-but 'very light cargoes'
OF foreign products Washington Globe.
This we suppose is intended to prove
I" our merchants and ship owners, the
beauties of the Experiment We will
suppose that each one of our Packet
Ships, brings in addition to her every
light CARGO" two hundred thousand dol
lars IN specie-how much will this paw
TO the owner. We answer, Five Hun
dred Dollars. Suppose this had been,
as it used TO be, laid out in an assorted
cargo, and it would have filled the ship.
Let us estimate the profits on this trans
action. We will take vessel of $50
tons; the owner would receive at least
$4,000 freight. The importer, allowing
him for profit and interest on investment
10 per cent, would make $50, 900. Auc-
tioncers l-2 per cent. on $500, 900
which the cargo would sell for, 1900
dollars. Jobbers profit, including store
expenses, 10 per CT, $4,000. Retail
ers in the country lOp per CT, $780, 0,000.-.
Labor, portage, transportation, &c. sc.
5 per cent, $4,000. Duties 25 per ct.
$4,000. All these things combined
show, that under the old state of things,
our citizens would have distributed
mongst them, from this one single i'm
portation, the sum Of one hundred and
fity-iour thousand dollars, in place of
the five hundred dollars freight. This is
It plain matter of fact-any man may un-
derstand it, and yet the authors Of this
loss TO the community, have the unblush-
ing assurance to make boast of il. N

LOUISIANA ELEcrIoN.--The result OF
this election is in the highest degree en-
couraging TO the Wings, and will, we
hope, be followed by equally decisive
victories in other States. The majority
for MIR. White, as Governor, in all the
parishes but one, is l643, the whole
number Of votes being about 10, ,40O.-
In tie first Congressional district, Mr..
Johnson, and in the third Mr.. Garland,
both Wings, are elected; the former by
II majority Of SIG, and the latter Of 59l.
Gen. Ripley is elected in the second by
II majority of about $50: but it is said
that he owes his election partly to the
fact that there were two Wing candi-
dates, and partly to his avowal Of his op-
position to some prominent measures o.!
the administration. There is a decided
Wing minority in the Legislature, and
the election of Wing u. S. Senator is
rendered secure Boston Patriot.

following description of this magnificen ent
edifce, that is to be, is from the Journal
Of Commerce.
"It is to be III feet long, and 80 feet
wide, and the form and order of the
building to be similar to that of the Par
tthenon Of Athens. 1t is to stand on a
basement story, ascended by nineteen
steps from Wall-street, and six steps on
Pine street. There are to be eight Gre
clan doric columns at each front, and fif-
teen columns and ante on each side, at
tached to the walls. There is al 50 TO be
q second row Of six smaller columns
back Of, and parallel with the main front,

two rows, and nine feet between the in
ner row and the front wall Of the build
ing. Back OF the two extreme columns
Of the inner row, there are to be two an
te, and six ante attached to the walls of
the rear front, leaving space Of eight
feet and half between the columns and

four outside columns, five feet eight inch
es diameter at the bottom, and thirty
two feet high, including the capital, and
eighteen antn on the two sides, of the
same height, five feet wide, and three
feet nine inches projection from the

main front will be four feet eight inches
diameter at the bottom, and the ante
to correspond. The building is to he
two stories high, except the great busi-
ness hall, part Of which is to be vaulted
as high as the roof will permit, and its
centre finished with a dome sixty-lwo
feet in diameter. This hall will occupy
the centre of the building, and will be
one hundred and fifteen feet long, leav-
ing q small vestibule at each end to en-
ter from. 1t is to be seventy feet wide
in the centre part, which is circle of
seventy feet diameter, with the length
and breadth of the room extending be-
yond its circumference to these dmcn-
sions; and the four parts so extended be-
yond its circle, are thirty-three and a
half feet wide, leaving SIX rooms and
three circular stair cases in the four cor
ners, the two largest rooms to be twenty
four by twenty-one feet each, besides a
square stair case in the rear, and three
vaults for papers at the two ends of each
vestibule. The same division Of the
room =. is made in the second sto.
ry. Nearly the same number, shape
and size Of the rooms are had in the
basement, as above in the other stories
leaving all the area of the same shape
and size as the great hall Immediately a
bove it; with the addition Of sixteen flu
ted doric columns to support the vaultins
