OFFICE SEEKING. death Of the late Philip
Hone has created vacancy in the Naval Office ofths
city, and already whole Hocks OF Office seekers con-
rccted with the whig party, have been stimulated
in regard to it. We have heard 1t stated that seve-
Ial half dozens Of these eagle eyed Office hunters
watched the health Of Mr.. Hone for several days
before lie died. The moment his last sigh escaped,
they posted of to Washington, and we believe that
,Eoits have been made in all directions to influence
the PRESIDENT and the cabinet in their selection Of
the person to hll the vacancy.
We have heard, that of the numerous individuals
who aspire to the alice, only two haze any reason

accounts. What day may bring forth, however,

prise. General Quitman, General Henderson, and
several other political leaders of the South, are
named as being connected with this expedition
against Cuba. II is we'll known that these gentle
men. and many others who sympathize with them,
entertain doctrines favorable to the secession Of the
south from the North, and even contemplate, at .
proner time. the establishment of Southern re-
public, comprising the Southern States, Mexico,
Cuba. and the West Indies, thus forming a new
power in that region, separate and distinct from
the Northern States and the British cclcnies'
This dream Of uniting the Southern States
and Mexico, Cuba and the West Indies, in one
great republic and of keeping the control of one Of
the principal highways between the commerce Of
the Pacific and the Atlantic-between China and
the Asiatic countries, and London and the coun-
tries of the East, has been entertained by many Of
those ADVENTURES since the termination OF the late
Mexican war.
The number Of points on the coast Of Georgia
Florida, and Texas, which have been named for the
sailing Of the expedition to Cuba, and the move
ments being made in those quarters, very naturally
suggest some understanding between those adyen
turers and the Southern secessionists. The imbe
cility Of the general government at Washington
displayed in the management of the Lopez trials il
New Orleans, and in the attempt to involve Gen
Quitnan, without sufficient evidence, in a violation
Of the law, make the men engaged in these enter
| prses more confident in ultimate success, and G
not only overcoming the United States government
and Of escaping their vigilance, but also of tryin
their chances in Cube. The rumors of all kind
from the South, coupled with what is taking plac
in South Carolina and elsewhere, begin to exhib
a very ugly aspect.
