The PosT MASTER GENERAL AND THE

from Washington to the Chronicle, says:
Judge Collamer has, understand.
very wisely determined to confer office
upon no oEe who is known TO indulge in
his "cups." Connected with the en-
forcement ofthis rule, a friend related to
me the other day, a scene which occurred
at Judge G.. room, of very amusing
character. 1t appears that an applicant
for the office of Postmaster somewhere
out West, called on the Post Master Gen
eral at his quarters, and presented his
papers, setting forth his claims to the of
fee sought. The Judge scrulinized him
for moment, aud then very cody re-
marked: "You drink whiskey. sir, be,
lievel" The unfortunate applicant, con
STRUNG this remark into an invitation to
quaff glass with the Postmaster General
replied: No, | thank you Judge, | pre-
fer glass Of draHdy and acater!" This
reply settled his case-his papers were
returned to him, and he was told that his
application was duly considered aud re-
iected. ".H. ..t

~A failure has recently occurred in
this vicinity, which has caused much CON
versation 1t is that of tine Right Rev
erend Bishop Doane, of New Jersey, who
fails for some three hundred thousand
dollars. The Bishop established Male
and Female College at Burlington, upon
a large scale, some few years since, upon
which it is said he has extravagantly ex
pended large sums He is besides. ex-
travagant in other respects, and probably
did not appreciate sufficiently the value
ofthe almighty dollar. He has made, l
am Informed, an assignment of his prop
erty, which will, however, only pay a
small dividend an the amount of his in
debtedness. His wife has an income of
some ten thousand year, left by her for
mer husband, the late Mr.. Perkins of
Boston. Whether she will relinquish
this in order 10 pay off the debts of her
present husband, is matter ofmuch dis,
cussion among the Church going portion
of the community, who think she is bound
to do so.-N Y Cor. PITTS. Gaz.

COTToN IN BosTON.--The Boston
Transcript says that the amount Of cot
ton received at that port for the week
ending March Goth, lS49. indicates re-
markable increase in the importation Of
that article, significant ofthe rapid growth
of Boston. There were received, from
New Orleans. 1892 bales; from Mobile,
1887; fIom Apalachicola, 5,29S; from
Savannah, 2,ll3; from Charleston. 42l;
from Galveston. 698; total 45.254 bales
more than one half the whole impora.
tiOn of the season in 1885, g, and Y.
Believing, as we do, that the cause of
protecIionis is the cause of all the interests of
the country, and the cause of truth
and justice, the attention of such cotton
rlanters as place no value on the home
market is called to the above paragraph.
In one week the city Of Boston receiv.
ed from the cotton. planting States up
wards of forly.6ve thousand bales of cot.
ton, which cost about one million oflol.
lars. This large import ofone article ON
y may contribute TO the rapid growth of
Boston, but it shows more conclusively
the great importance of the home market,
which is generally better than the for
leign, and, by consequence. the deep in.
'erest every planter has in protecting it.
But it SHOULD not be supposed that all
the cotton shipped from the South to Bos-
ton is tor sale in the latter place; because
nearly the whole of the import at Boston
is purchased with cash, in the seaboard
markets, for the cotton mills of Lowell
aud other places in Massachusetts.
And now, let us, in part, account for
the superior quality of the domestic fab
RIGS over those imported from England
One operation Of an agent at New Or.
leans will illustrate: He receives an or
der from the Lawrence mill, or any other
mill nj Lowell. for 5000 bales of clean
good cotton. 10 procure which, he must
buy some six, seven or eight thousand
bales ofall sorts, running from ordinary,
good ordinary, middIing, good midding,
fair, good fair, and fine. Having pur.
chased all these qualities. his next duty
is TO order his broker to classify them,
which being done, he ships to Boston the
good coltons, and then sells to the Liver
pool purchasers the inferior cnttons,
which, at much less cost, are by the
manufacturers of Manchester (England)
worked into flmsy stuff and sent to cur
country to undersell our strong durable
fabrics, (strong md durable because they
are made from good cotlon,) and at the
same lime cheaper our labor and get our
money. ..
The American system" advocated by
the Whig parryis unquestionably the true
policy of the country, and it should be
the permanent law of the land with some
modification. The Tariff of 1S42 was
not perfect one; that of1S46, is believed
to be the most imperfect one we everh had
A tariff Of duties between the :wo would
operate bene6cially, provided the duties
