De- The recent appointments Of Postmas-
ter and Collector Of Customs for the city Of
Mobile, rsaect great credit on the Admins
tration. Messrs. Beers and Walker are gen.
tlemen in whom the people ofthat town have
the highest confidence for integrity and gen.
eral capacity to discharge the duties Of pub
lie Office and honorable citizenship. They
are Wings too. who love their country more
than men, and who, We predict, win contri-
butte largely to the elevation Of the federal
Offices entrusted to them. We congratulate
the Mobilians on the selection Of gentlemen
50 worthy in every particular Of their esteem
and affection.

The attack OF the Standn rdn upon Gen. TayIor.

gard as Intentionally false or rather perhaps, the

6S-It is bad enough for the cause Of the
country, that the acts Of the Administration
should be misrepresented by those who may
be paid for the performance Of this duty, BY
the presses employed in such little business,
but that the public treasury should supply the
snews Of war for such an operation, is much
worse. The Baltimore Clipper is right in
hoping that this evilwill be put an end to- We
believe i will be promptly checked There
is number Of persons in the employ Of the
Government in this city, who are daily en-
ployed in the work Of incorporating and
falsifying, and betraying the Administration
by their Washington letters. They may
soon find il to their interest 70 abandon theil
vocation.

other party to do so. We regarl the at
tempt to ALLEVIATE one portion Of the Union
from the other, no matter by what party,
whether Northern or Southern, Free-Soil
or Slavery Extension, as equally reasonable
to the interests Of these United States. II
is true, as the Enquirer says, that the South
is quite as obnoxious to the charge Of de-
lberate purpose to prevent the formation Of
a civil government in the new Territories as
the North is. Each party want an extreme
condition attached to the organic law. We
publish, to-day, in another column, the pro-
ceedings Of meeting in Accomac County,
Virginia, relative to this very question Of
extending the ordinance Of 1887 over the
Mexican acquisitions They 60 to demon
strate the existence Of a feeling, quite as
hostile in that county against the formation
Of a civil government in California and New
Mexico, unless slavery shall be allowed to
60 there, as any resolutions or movements
Of the Free-Soil people in Mr.. Gidding's
own township could exhibit, unless slavery
were excluded by express provision Of law
Now, the Enquirer must have seen, il i
saw anything in the premises, that the Pres
ident could never have denounced the Free
Sellers for doing that which the Slavery.
Extension party is equally guilty Of, without
subjecting himself to the charge Of duphcit,
..
when he wrote the Allison letter, and WI
are astonished, that it should have persisted
in placing itself in such an equiyocal posi-,
ton, knowing that the old hero's characte
is acknowledged by universal opinion to b
clear Of all doube-mindedness
But the truth is, Gen. Taylor has neve
uttered any such threats as the Enquirer as
cribes 10 him against any party. He stand
upon the platform Of the Allison letter, o
rather the Constitution, and time will prove
that he has not moved hairs breadth iron
that position.

CorrEn Coiss.--Among the many curious estab-
hshmenfs In New York Is one for manufacturing
copper coin. The market is so gluited with copper
that II has fallen In value far below what Is esina

Gz>ALLEN A. HAIL, the new Register Of
the Treasury, has arrived in town and will
take his seat to-day No man in the country
has run more useful and more brilliant ca
reer than he. One Of the soundest and most
eloquent writers in the Union, he presided
over the columns Of the Nashville Banner
and Nashville Wing, with the most CONSUME
mate ability for a long period Of time, and
did as much as, il not more than, any other
man in Tennessee TO rescue her from the
embraces OF Jacksonism and 10 keep her
from falling back into the same heresy As
politician, it has been happily observed by
the talented Washington Correspondent Of
the Baltimore Patriot, he nerer makes mis-
take. A ripe scholar, gentleman Of great
amenity Of manners, thoroughly versed in
the affairs Of Government, he will make an
able Register. He has all the qualities for
such an office. While his adopted State
for lie is a native, we believe, Of old Rip
Van-Wynkle-wil lose his valuable SER
vices, the Union will gain them. Mr. Hall
served lis country abroad, as Charge des
Afaires to the Government Of Venezuela,
with great honor and eclat during Mr.. Ty-
ler's administration He comes now to lend
strong helping hand 10 the administration
Of Old lack, and we bid him, in the name
Of the good people Of our city, welcome,
thrice welcome among us!

&5-The appointment Of Mr.. PHILIP Clay
TON Of Georgia to be Second Auditor Of the
Treasury, is another proof Of the old Hero's
determination to raise the standard Of official
worth and competency to the highest possible
point. The journals Of Georgia, Demo
cratic as well as Wing, have expressed
themselves very freely upon this appoint
ment, which the telegraph wires enormously
communicated nearly month ago to the
public, and we have not yet met with q
single one Of them--and we believe, we
get every paper in that State-that has
found the least fault with it They have
glowingly spoken Of his high mental qualif-
cations, his elevated character for strict in
tegrity, his indefatigable industry, his cour-
tesy and aaability, and his fidelity in the
discharge Of all the duties Of long and useful
career. He is son Of Mr.. Clayton, well
known to, and we'll remembered by the
country, Us member Of Congress from
Georgia in times gone by. He enters upon
his new Office under the most fattering aus
pieces, and though its labors are Herculean,
we predict it will not be long before he will
be able to announce that its tables are once
more clear We congratulate the Admins
tration and the suitors Of the Second Audi
tors Bureau, upon their good fortune in Sc
curing the valuable services Of such man

The general public, We have no doubt,
win be pleased to know, that we have made
arrangements with the companies--on their
application--whch furnish the newspapers
with Geographic intelligence, wherever
there is telegraphic station, to send them
all the official information Of the acts Of the
federal government, the moment il is re-
ceived a. the National Wing Office, and all
other such facts respecting its action as may
be proper 10 be made known. This ar
rangcment went into operation on the 18th
instant. It secures the transmission and
diffusion Of correct information from the seal
Of government. Too long have the wires
been made the medium Of propagating false
hoods and Misrepresentation. II is time,
that it should be put stop to, and we know
of no better plan to do it, than the one
which we have adopted, il involves good
deal Of labor, but as we have the cordia
assistance Of all the officers Of the govern.
ment, who are authorized to communicate
official information to the public, we shall
be able TO do full justice to our task.
