ketrenchment and reform are the watchwords
OF the day, and the principle is now being put in
to practical application. BY the present Comptrol-
ler Mr. Flagg has, il is said reduced the salaries
of his clerksesome of them 10 the tune Of 500.
Inc Major is stern economist, where he belives,
and In his notions the subject of retrenchment il
Tar more practical than theoretical The new state
oihcers have generally, entered into the discharge
ton, so far at any rate.
tbs amusing to notice the great suspicion and
jealousy that Is evinced by the country members
OF the Assembly, generally, towards every thing
coming from the New York delegation. The New
Workers, 1t must be confessed are some what prope
TO dlctaion, and assumption Of superiority, espe-
eialiy where democratic prime piles are considered
as being involved, and rather apt occasionally
to imagine that the city of New York is the whele
State Their locefocoism 10 too ultra, too rabd II
you for the tmid notions Of men who have pass-
ed 1t may be the greater part of their existsncs in
some quiet country town, far removed from the
sweep OF the violent AMI gddy eddies Of the politi
cal whirlpool. Thus il is that we often sep them
astounded and even shocked at some ultra pkoposi-
ton from the New York delegation. Any one who
has watched the debat, this scssion can bear evil
dence TO the truth of this.
Strenuous exertions are still being made the
part OF the friends and lobby agents Of the North
River Bank, to procure re-charter; bat they will
inevitably be unsuccessful In the House, Messrs
Carpenter and Hitchcock may be considered Is its
most especial advocates. CAVE ULcIscAR.
