Inc investigation Of the causes that led to the mur
DER oil Mr. Charles G. Cors is yet going on before
'he coroner, and thus far, not ray of definite light
has been shed the subject 1t is not probable tina,
the murderer, if Corlis indeed was murdered, Will
ever be detected
speak of the assumed murder of Cors with some
quaiihcauon you will perceive, and for the reason
'fat IL Is possible that he committed suicide II has
oeen proved that many days before his death he Ia
oored under an intense and extraordinary excitement
and one OF the witnesses swears that he had a Wild
and insane appearance. II is not utterly impossible
that the man died OF his own violence committed b.
his own hands. IL is supposed by many that the fe-
male who was last seen with him was Mrs Cotton
mat she called on him TO him OF impending
danger, and that deeply excited by the communica.
ons and revelations she made lie put an end to hi,
own existence.
BE til conjecture as may, i, is not probable that
sny evidence will ever be adduced to implicate Col
ton or his wife with the murder. Both will prove
GEAR and conclusive abb This they can do at any
moment without the least difficulty. And what Is
more, they can do it, even If they be guilty.
The mother Of Mrs. Cotton arrived in town the ds,
before yesterday She lodges at the Clinton Hotel
and IS spoken Of by all who have seen her as a yer,
lady-hke, intelligent, and pious parsonage She hl,
evidently been accustomed TO the better circles ol
society through life, and held a reputable ranL ia
them.
The Wings and the Wing presses are making
good deal Of noise about the appointment of the gentle
man TO succeed MIR solomon Van Re,sseuaer 90
at "A a..
Postmaster General Wickliie come in for yer,
large share Of their abuse.
II these most notable gentlemen Of the Wing part,
imagine that they bully the President on, Of the
performance Of his duty, they will fancy find them
selves most ogregiousy in error The President will
unquestionsbly appoint his friends TO Office TO the eX
elus'"n OF his foes. lie is responsible for his admin
'srai'on OF the Government, and in carving the
Constitution and the laws into execution, he will ~.
doubtedly select such agents will assist and no,
oppose or Illustrate his patriotic designs.
As for the Postmaster General, those who rail At
him, and hope 10 intimi1ate him, will find that thN
rail IN vain. To the most rigi determination 10
meie even and exact justice to, all the honorable
MIR. Wickliae adds frmnes. Of purpose, a nobene..
Of mind, and moral courage that have sustained
him through a life somewhat advanced, and BIZ ND
means unevsntful, and which will sustain him n
every hour Of peril and emergency Let his rerler,
rail on. They knaw against ile.
Those Wings who so deeply sympathizo with Mr.
Deputy Postmaster Van Rensselaer, OF the city uf
Albany, should exercise a little method and prudence
in their condolences.
II is not many weeks since these most sympabttr
and disinerested Wings set up most lamentaJlc
" hue and cry" because Mr.. Porter was removed
from the Post Office at Hartford Connecticut
"Poor Mr.. Porter :" they said, was removed from
office, because he refused 10 do homage and f,aliy
to John Tyler Poor felloe What great tear,
werehed over him and his hard fate by the sympats
tic Wings And what was the result Why, after
they had spent a world Of sympathy in behalf Of Mr.
Postmaster Porter, they found themselves compel
TO take it all back, y and denounce him
The weather has moderated somewhat since yc'.
terday, and It is hoped shall have rain before
morning. The streets Of the city are in horrible
condition, almost impossible in consequence Of the
masses Of snow and ice that obstruct them.
Yours truly, SC.
