 DaneI Webster is determined to enter the field al ali hazards, and the clerks of the State Depatt7 ment will be basily employed in directing and malans glowing euioges of his s'aiesmanshlp' patriotism, and private virtues. The Webster pa pers Aaye begun the work of killing of Clay, by circulating ruuiors that his health IS broken. and tha; he will scarcely be able 10 withstand the fatigue of another session. The wings have had such melancholy experience with their PreSi- dents aying few months after inauguration, that they consider it q sRe g,m non for all candidates hefeatler to be in sound health. Webster has been narsng himself through The summer. So as b make IbAast appearance, Aud he hopes to Satisfy hls tIen,s that point. His physicians have recommended eenhnsaee; and he has been en9eayoring, ba, am sorry to say with only in dlieren: success, 10 follow their advice.
 Seth Geer, the whig Coroner of thls city, has been caught playing one of those games for which whis officials have been so pIedstinguiShed oflate. The examples of Webster and his man Curtis, of Tom C9rwn and his nephew Bob, will prove fatal b grea, many wings Of inferior callbre-inen who want money just as much as grea, statesmen, but who do not know enough to plumber or de fraud legally.
 GalphinlSm and Gardiner claims, on 2 small scale, have been of quite frequent occurrence, of late. among the whgs of New York GeeF, how ever, has gone a step too far, even in the estlma- ton of his friends. They say he has been too barefsced. entirely. personal and political friend of his. an office holder, remarked to me, thls moFnlng, that Geer ought to b. sent 10 Sing Sing, for making Id fool of himself. :" He might" continued this worthy gentleman, " have made just much money as he wanted, and got the re nomination, if he had not been SC thunder ing careless.

 l. appears that whenever Geer heard of death, in any part of the city, whether under such cir- cunlstances as to render CoronerS inquest neceS- sary or not he would send some person in his ea,- ploy to The house, to inquire fl the report ot a death having occurred there were true, and if so, into the circumstances that occasoned t. He would then send the family Csssner's certificate Tor burial, and charge the city s, for ia9uss, with few other perquistes. It further appears that when the holding Of lnqaes;s was necessary, he neglected to do SD in the manner prescribed by law, 0j empaneling jury. etc.; but merely insti- tuted Il lew inquiries, to tune. and ge. through wta good deal oi work m day. Ia cases, however, which were sure. from their no,oriety, b get into the papers and attrac, pabc attention, n1 coroner has ever compiled more faithfully with tAe requifed forms ofiaw. The substance Of my statement of this aTir IS gathered froa the report Of tle committee appointed by The Board of Alder mea 10 investigate the charges preferred against coroner Geer.
