New ORLEANS, April IA, 1549.
You prosab,y have observed that the first move
in the Wing ranks for the fali campaign takes place
next Monday night; a meeting is to be held and
delegates will be appointed to the State Conven~
ton, there is trickery at work, I'm afraid, and the
delegates probably will be Instructed to vote for a
man for Governor Of whom you little dream. The
gentleman whom you have nominated, and about
whom you doubtless feel most interested, has hosts
Of friends in the city, who will warmly press his
claims; l have just seen a planter from the parish
of 81. Landry, who says that MI. Labauve would
carry every thing before him there. The First Mu-
n%icipality particularly was thrown into some ex-
citement to-day by The reported embezzlement of
some $25, 600 by a collector Of one of the districts
of the city he has hitherto stood high in the COM
munity, and was a prominent Democratic leader;
he is now in prison, and l forbear at present to men-
ton his name. Times are dull and getting worse
here every day boarding houses are breaking up;
murders and robberies are increasing gamblers
are abundant; pawnbrokers thriving; and grog
shops making their eternal jacks-lndeed, with re-
gard to every honorable calling, New Orleans has
not been in such wofal condition within the last ten
years. Yours, CYRUS.

Eztensiue Embezzlement.-It is with
the utmost pain, says the Picayune of last
Sunday, that we are this morning compel
led to record a case which will produce;
no doubt; much surprise in the public
mind generally, and will be a source of
unqualified regret to the immediate friends
of the person implicated. The individual
to whom we refer is William X. Stiles, a
gentleman we'll known in this community
as incumbent of the office of Collector OF
State Taxes for the Fourth Representative
District. In holding this responsible sta
ton a vast amount Of funds, must necessa-
rily have passed through his hands, and
we are grieved to say that he now stands
charged with moi having appropriated
them to their legitimate uses, but is ac-
cused Of having embezzled the large sum
of$2s.O49.
This morning Mr.. John Duncan, an
ex-AIderman of the First Municipality,
and one of the securities on Mr.. Stiles's
bond; made affidavit against the latter be-
fore Recorder Genois, charging him with
having embezzled the amount above sta
ted. On this affidavit Mr.. Stiles was ar
rested, and as the case was one ia which
the Recorder, according to a decision Of
the Supreme Court, cannot receive bail,
the accused was remanded to prison, and
the papers sent before the First District
Court.

Casual Sl.eptics and Other I!nmbugs.

The frienGs OF humanity and human regener-
alton, had fondly hoped that the day dawn
ing when anu Important sciences would no
longer be ass.iIed by designing skeptlcs who,
because Phre noogy does not RECOGNIZES ia them
the most profound wisdom and place them in a
position far in advance Of their Ga, and genera
ton, seek, by every within their power,
to hurl this science into oblivion and stamp dis
grHce upon those who are engaged in its propa-
CATION
But ii appears there is still one individual who
BY long tram of cultivation in the region OF
sef-este-n. Considers himself the Oracle for the
expression of public opinion in regard the
lectures delivered BY IL. Wisner, on Anatomy,
Phrenology, Physiology, &c. Assuming TO HIM
self the w-ll-kuown tale Of Jnnius, lie assajs
the people of the west-charging them with
.'gup ping down too little grain aud too much

ualy cries gu, .chafT,' without examination,
stands fair chance Of procuring bnt little gram
himself.
AS regards the resolutions 10 which Junius re-
ferrej. We would recommend kim TO examine
those passed by citizens in different portions Of
the country where Mr.. Wisner has delivered
lectures; lie lot here exile ana straD-
ger; though, perhaps, unknown to the iar-seeing

defence Of Mr.. Wisner; but wonld respectfully
refer friend .Iunius' to the recorrfrle nd
of o. :. Fowler. in Phre. Journal Of A., D. 81
