n correspondence between tho late fost Mas
ter OF y. York, Mr.. S. L. Gouvcrncur and the
clerks in his office has been published, We ex-
tract the following from Mr.. G's letter.
"Of the simple fact, gentleman, OF my
removal from office, unconnected with
few circumstances to which l shall not at
present advert, l do not know that |
ought to complain. Never having sought
in the first instance for place, ! have had
a tolerably fair participation in the spoils;
and as the tenure of my Office has never
been distinguished by mean snbserviency
to any individuals, it was as little to be ex-
pected that could continue in its quiet
possession, as it was rather greatly to be
wondered how I could have held 1t SO
long. The loud and urgent calls, too,
which surround the public crib, perhaps
Justly demand an occasional sacrItlce'
to appease the hungry exPcctants OF a
share.
"For the deep interest you express 'or
my family and myself, accept our united
acknow Judgments. Fear not, gentlemen'
for US; with the smiles of Providence
which we shall invoke, aud my own eyer
tions, We viii. take care Of ourselves.

WHEAT

The failure Of the wheat crop in this
country has produced . state of things
unprecedented in its history. II i
stated that seven hundred and fifty
thousand bushels Of wheat have been
imported into New York duriae the
last autumn, the entire stock Of which
IL already exhausted. Were Il not Eog
the quantity Of Western -four in that
city, supposed to be about l6O, 900 bar
reis, its pTedicament would be awkward
indeed, the canal navigation being
closed and that Of the river nearly so.
A curious fact came 10 our knowledge
a short time since ia connection With
this subject, which we intended 10 have
mentioned before but omitted 10 do 90.
A farmer from York county, Pa, one
Of the finest wheat districts ia the
world, came TO Baltimore 10 purchase
foreign wheat TO carry home with him,
fer the purpose Of grinding il into -four
for the use 81 himself and neighboss.-
Another equally remarkable inssanee
of the same character Is the purchase
Of about sax thousand bushels OF German
wheat, in this naaFket, by q miller Of
the fertile county Of Frederick, 90 sup
ply the wants Of his BeighboFhood with
