BANK OF WoosrEa.-The following from
the Washington Union of the 2lst., shows
that the Secretary Of the Treasury has resol-
we'd 10 remove the public monies deposited
in this institution, at an early dly. The
Unoi.'S article explains fully the circnmstan-
ces under which they we're placed in the
bank, aud proves that Mr.. Walker, in this as
n all other Of his acts, believed TINT he was
taking the course most likely TO promote the
public interest. The Union says:
"Some of our republican brethren in Ohio
are sill hrping upon the Bunk of Wooster.
We can baveuo objection, we are sure, 10
hese atiacks,as we have not the slightest in
terest in .hs insfitution--in fact, were no.

Washington. The accounts which we have
since heard of it, fom gentlemen of charac.

political transactions, are by no means cal
culited TO Nuke favorable impression of
The mlnner in which il has been conducted
Of its pecun;ary condition we know nothing
certain. But some of these papers have
done some injustice 10 the Secretlry Of the
Treasury. He never intended to bolster up
the credit or character Of that Institution
He determined 20 act right upon that occa.

MAJ. w. B. LEwB.-'This in1vidual, as
most of our readers know, has held lucra-
tive Office at Washington, third Auditor Of
lhe Treasury, for sixteen years. A few
months since President Polk, for satisfactory
reasons-and no bot,or reason would be re-
quired than the fact that he had held the Of
fee so long-displayed him, and gave the
plice to anolher. Mortified at his dism S.
al, he affected to believe silly story, origin
ated by some letter-wrter hard run for poll
tical gossip, that it had been brought about
by his flmiIy connexion with the French
minister. On this Amsy pretext, he indited
dscourteous note addressed Jas. X. Polk,
Esq.,, deminding to know f that was the
cause Of his removal, accompanied with
declaration that he would replir 10 Tennes-
see and take m ,asures for the "vindiclton OF
his character" Mr.. Polk very properly ne
fused 10 answer his billets, and left him to
vindicate his character in his own way
Lewis had long enjoyed the generous conf
dencs and friendship of General Jackson,
and was in confidential private intercourse
with him up to the time Of his death. The
old hero explicitly declared, but a few days
before his death, that he could not cens,ire
Mr.. Polk for his removal; and defeated in
his effort to arouse the sympathy Of Gen.
jackson, lie Itas resorted 10 the pitifnl alter
native Of attempting to injure the President,
and the democratic p,ry, by the publication
of private letters addressed to him by the.
old General, in which he speaks of those
who were then their mutual friends, in the
terms of confidential private Intercourse
These letters relate to the sale and transfer
of the .. Globen Office, and do not in the
least affect orrefarto his removal or his "cha-
racier." A more flagrant violation of hon
orable confidence, or amore striking instance
of bass ingraiitude, is not ON record--btl'
such an act is its own comment.--Mis Mississippi
