Mr.. WLEY.-The New York papers
handle MIR. Wiley without gloves, and
well they may for, if such an outrage as
has been committed, can be tolerated by
that city from its own judicial officers,
then we say that morals are at very
low ebb indeed in the great commercial
emporium, and we might add "Omnia vc-
nahd Nopi E5oraci."
1t is stated that Mr.. Wiley wns instru-
mental also in negotiating for the restora-
ton Of the money ofthe Providence Bank.
1t is also now reported currently IN Ere.
derrick, that letters have been received
from Mr.. Anderson. Of Philadelphia, stat
ing that the same man had once been the
negotiation between himself and some rob.
bers who had plundered his store. The
plumber was restored to him through the
same agent.
Ifsuch things are allowed to be passed
over without inquiry in the city of New
York, then might it well be said, that its
police may be suspected Of being cor
rupt as the villains who robbed the bank.
