New YoRK, Sept. %, lS45.
The publication Yesterday of book containing
the private letters of some Of our most prominent
politicians addressed to Jesse Hoyt, Cor, as Swart
won't writes, "Jesseka,") has caused much excite
ment in this city.
The letters, principally, are Of that familiar and
unstuded character usually addressed by friend
to another.
Private correspondence Of this kind, between any
two friends and on almost any subject, would
scarcely answer to be published TO the world. No
one can look upon the unmitigated wretch who
caused their publication with any other feelings
than those Of horror and contempt
No man in the Union is safe in writing private
note il publications Of this nature TO be coune

knave, or dirty scoundre may be wrcnchng the fast

not the creatures feelings who has placed his
name upon the cover Of this book, as the
compiler; and f it were possible for William
l.. Mackenzie to find lower depth than the one he
has for long time grovcled IN, this act would place
him in his right quarters There ia here no little
curiosity to know how he Obtained possession Of
these papers, or why Mr.. Hoyt should leave them
in so public place as the New York euston-hcuse,
four or five years after he had left the Office. Did
Mackenzie have partner in this vlany; and II
yea, who was III These are questions continually
being asked; but none can answer them.
Another curious publication made its appearance
yesterday, in the shape Of 'Free and Full Confess
sion Of John b. Cough, - the somewhat celebrated
Temperance lecturer who, you will recollcct, fell
from the faith in this our wicked city, and was dis
covered greatly TO the scandal OF temperate in
all things" in house where IL was really very
naughty to be found and not altogether clear in his
few days aimee he left this city for Mas
sachuscs, with promise that, his arrival there,
he would write out full confession, and send il
here for publication. Sure enough, yesterday il APP
peared in the Journal Of Commerce, fully endorsed
and highly commended by the editors who urged

The Evening Post, too, prefaced the publication Of
il with few grave reflections becoming interest
ing and important a subject Sad to relate howev-
err, the whole thing has proved to be hoax of the
worst kind.
Il appears by the last arrival, that the English
press notwithstanding the efforts made to suppress
their iIl-nnture on account Of the triumphant sue
ccss Of the annexation measure, will let out
sionaly little of its ridiculous John Boil bluster,
and also the reasons why it was desirable to Eng
land TO have Texas remain independent. These
reasons were the very ones-and the very strongest
ones, too-why every American should desire her an

TRUE SENTIMENT. 81

The burden of the wing assaults upon thc Presi-
dent has been his dupllcty upon the tariff question:
for free-trade the South, and protective tariff at
the North. However absurd the charge--espccially
when the wings had in glaring coors before them
the extraordinary course of their own chief on the
Texas question, as exhibited by his Raleigh and
Alabama let,ers--it has been made to ring all the
changes in wing tactics. In the Cincinnati Gazette,
very strong whig paper, we find short paragraph
which sets the matter right. II does full justice to
'putting down the tariff" the administration will la
Dor honestly and zeaously TO modify il according to
the revenue standard, demanded by the interest Of
all classes alike:
"THE TAnrr AND SUpTnKssuRy.-Two things evi

We were in error in this. Mackenzie was never

You will see accounts, via Boston, of late date,
from Baenos Ayres. Things there continue in a
very unsettled state, made infinitely worse by the
intcrmeddling of the French and English govern
mens. A blockade of the river Plate is probable.
Horrible atrocities are said to have been committed
in Corrientes, where General Paz is indirectly aided
by French and English influence. In all this Euro
pean iniermeddling, interest, as neutral nation,
seriously suffers Few American ships are said TO
be in the Plate. Exchange has gone up enormous
ly, while gold and silver are in great demand IL
seems to me the conduct of England and France in
that part of the world should be strongly and ur
gently protested against on our part.
Some further arrests have been made in the dis
turbed ant-rent district. Others still under
trial.
In speaking of the Indebtedness of the East India
government yesterday, should have stated that the
amount borrowed on account Of Indian wars recent
ly, amounted to l3,O0O,000 rupees, and not pounds
sterling. The rupee is valued at two shilings ster-
lng--worth from As to so cents; making the amount
borrowed about s6,0O0OO0. misunderstood Mr.
T. on this point ,n
On referring to McCulloch, l find that, as far
back as 1887 and 1898, the receipts Of the Indian
government amounted to about G22 900 900 sterlng
or to about 100000 900. Their expenditures du-
ring the same period amounted to about EOS, 000,-
600, creating excess Of debt equal to &30O0, 900
sterling, or about $l4, 000, 900 TO els, 900 000n
Their entire debt in 1889 was estimated at &c.,
0OO, 600 sterling, fully equal to 5000, 100000.
