THE PRESIDENTIAL ELEc ToN-THE GERMANS
AS 1t is with the Irish, SO is it with the Germans.
The politicians are billing and cooing with them
hattering them about "faderland,' and cndea-
voring to make them beleve-the leaders of
each party for themsevcs-that they have
the highest regard for that same "faderland''
and Its sons, especially those of them who
have votes. They are using every effort to
organize them into a German phaanx. for
voting purposes. We must ngain condemn this
attempt, we did that at the Tabernacle OH
Monday evening, and we trust 1t will be denounc-
ed by all good citizens. We can have no foreign
voters-as such-in this country. We must have
no organization Of foreigners here for political pur-
poses. They are all American citizens, and
should exercise the elective franchise as such. and
not as Germans, or Irish, or foreigners of any
country.

ESTIMATES or PUBIIc MEETINGS The Globe,
the organ OF the barnburners in this city, cstimat
ed the number of persons present at the meeting
in the Park on Tuesday last, at twenty thousand,
and the Tribune sets it down at ten thousand Now
the Globe wishes to make the assemblage as large
as possible, with the view of making the public
believe that the barnburners are the democracy;
and the Tribune wishes, also, to make it as
large possible, in order to widen the breach
between the two factions, so as to keep
them from pulling together, and allow the wing
candidates to sweep the State. II is impossible for
the party journals TO tell the truth. They could not
dot 1t they were to Try The probable number pre-
sent at that meeting was correctly set down by this

Mn. TRIsT AND THE TREATY.-This celebrated
dipomatlst arrived at the Astor House, in this
city, the other day, on his way to Washington, as
prisoner of war, to report his doings to Mr.. Polk
and the administration. The history of the Trist
negotiation, including all the ups and downs of
this diplomacy-the protocols, paper correspond
ence, both diplomatic and military-woud make
a tale almost amusing as the history of Gil
Bias de Santilane. 1t is reported he is proceeding
to Washington prisoner (at large). If SO, we
hope he will have tral-a sort Of diplomatic
court marial-in which all his proceedings, the
private instructions and secret doings as well as
public acts, will be brought before the world; so
that we may be able TO unravel the tangled web Of
Mexican diplomacy within the last few months
We rather think Mr. Trist will prove match
for Mr.. Polk in this Mexican business.

Orleans Jockey Club Races.

A great number of persons visited the Bingaman
Course yesterday, to witness of the most inter-
esting at two mile heats, which has been run
in long while. The peculiarly of the race in
creased the attraction although we think that in
the application of the word handicap" the pro-
prietors have used misnomer. The mode of ia
king the weights off the elder horses, gave very
great satisfaction to the parties owning Them and
was the cause of spirited betting Margaret Edna
was the first favorite in the betting circles and
was much so, that, before the race, she was
taken freely against the field
At the tap. she started off at bouncing pace. and
getting the lead, maintained it for a mile and
a half, when George .Suhipan, a favorite from
Alabama, challenged, and after spirited brush
down the home stretch won the heat in gallant
style-the Leviathan FLY well up-.Jm Along
Just in his distance Time-3:44.
The extraordinary time of the heat completely
upset the Vaccinations of the woudbe knowing
ones, who had bet against $50, and yet. in opposi
ton TO their preconceived notions, George served
the party the same trick in the second heat in the
same time-344. The only difference in the result
was, that the Leyiathan filly changed places with
Margaret.
1t is unnecessary to go into heightened detail of
the race but it may not be amiss to remark, that
every inch of ground was well contested, nor was
it until the last jump was made that the best judge
could tell to whom the honor of victory should
belong.

The PosT-oFFICE.-Hs Management. 8c-We
have but few words in answer to the Post-office
manifesto. We have no cause of complaint against
the gentlemen employed in the office-it is against
the management of the office-against its head.
We aim at correction of abuses-not at a quarrel
with individuals. We have made charges of a
neglect of duty-cited instances. Those connected
with the office have denied them, and resolved. in
general assembly conuened that we have told an
untruth and that the office is admirably conducted
We are content to let the public Judge between u.s.
But of one thing are fully sasfied-that is that
large majority of the people of this city concur
with us in opinion; and it will require something
more than resolution by the gentlemen in the Post
Office to convince that public that Mr. Penn is an
efficient officer. II is believed by many that his
supposed efficiency in serving prominent men, has
strengthened his claims more than his fitness for
the office.
We have not the remotes idea. that any thing
we may urge-no matter how supported-will have
the least influence at Washington Indeed, we
believe that If nine tenths of the community would
call for change in office, no attention would he

have so little influence with the powers that be =

Gen. LANE.--We notice with pleasure the arri-
val of this gallant officer in city, after the hard
ships and fatgues of an arduous campaign. We
say that we notice bis arrival with pleasure, be-
cause We know that the army will not be long
deprived Of his valuable services; and however
much we may regret the time when he will again
leave his native shore, we will feel satisfaction in
knowing that what we lose by his absence here we
more than gain by his presence at the scene of
action.
1t would be superfuons to enulnerate here the
exploits of Gen. Lane, or tie invaluable service he
has rendered his country in the field, The nation
knows them and will appreciate them. During the
bloody contest Of Buena Vista, his skill and gal
iantry were conspicuous and it is stated that from
Jiis conduct on that occasion he gained higher
place in Gen. Taylor's estimation than was occu-
pied by any other General. 1t would also be use.
