FRIDAY M6RNIN JANUARY 81.

II will be seen by reference to the cor
respondence in another column, that Mr.
HAswELL has resigned the office of Coun-
" Clerk and we learn that the vacancy
has been supplied bv the appointment of
WILLIAM NOBLE, Esq. Of Charlotte. Mr..
II. it seems has served the public in this
office for nearly sixteen years-embracing
period Of unusual political excitement
and now voluntarily rctires under clrcur
stances alike honorable to himself aud
gratifying to his friends. OF the estlma.
ton 10 which his official services are held
by those who could best appreciate them,
the resolution Of the Bar is an honorable
testimonial; and we can with pleasure add,
that we have never heard even an impu-
,alion against his official integrity. 1t is
truly gratifying TO see official relations Of
long standing dissolved under circums,an-
ces of 50 much good feeling, and 80 much
credit to all parties. And in addition TO
this, the simple fact of a mans voluntary
resignng an office of profit, is crcum'
stance which ought not to overlooked IN
estimating the patriotism OF the present
day. The example is good one, and ii
he spirit which prompted it, was more
prevalent. we should hear vastly less CON-
plant than we now do about oc,osenary
Office -holders. There are times and places
for al ,hings-s,atons for all men--bu'
no office Tor any one man ahoays. This il
the republican creed, according to our tex
book.

The SURPLUS. Much has been said in
the Administration papers, of the necessity
of reducing the Tariff, in order to prevent
the accumulation Of surplus funds in the
Treasury; and those unacquanted with
the facts, might well suppose, from their
remarks on this subiec that the whole Of
the surplus now to be divided among the
several States, had been raised by oppres-
size taration upon The people, lin the form
of custom house duties land that unless
the Tariff should be reduced, the same &C
