As the time approaches at which nom-
nations for the Presidency have usually
been made, the movements of the differ
ent parties, and parts of parties have be-
come more and more active, and more
complicated. 1t has been supposed that
the enormous annual expenditures at
which we have arrived, would constitute
a cohesive power that would countervail
the growing sectional and flctional ten
denotes Of the times. But this is not at
all certain. On the contrary, it may be
tonnd an element Of still greater distrac-
tion. The expenditures are now fifty mil
lions per annum. On the policy now a.
dopted depends therefore the distribution
OF that sum, not only for the present year
but often Of an equal amount for four years
more. The Presidential question involves
now, therefore, the division Of two hundred
and fifty millions. And when was it that
a sum Of such magnitude could be divided
without a quarrel between the distribu-
torsi Mr.. Van Buren's Administration
went down under the operation of divi-
ding thirty-ninc millions.
Perhaps n careful examination of histo-
~ will show that nothing Is SO destructive
Of party or political harmony, rs the pos
session Of large amount of money or
spoils. I. is certain that the element of
averice Is admitted to an extraordinary
share Of power, in case where higher
principles are required more than ever. II
the number Of recipients is increased, that
Of expectants is increased still more; and
If many are successful in securing share
a still greater number Of competitors arc
disappointed.
The system Of the late Louis Philippe
was founded on higher expenditure, a
greater centralism, and more internal i'm
provements than were eter known in
France before. 1t fell PROSTATE in twenty
four hours. The throne Of Solomon gave
way under his successor, at a period Of the
highest income, and the greatest abun-
dance Of gold and silver. The democra-
cy Of Athens was detroyed precisely at the
period when it commanded the largest
quotas Of heg allies--and the temple of
Delphus was sacked at length when the
temptations Of its gold became t.o power
fnl for the sanesity of It's God. Rsen Pitt,
the great founder Of modern finance, was
driven from power by coalition, al the ve-
ry time his taxes were the higbst, and
his patronage the greatest A surplus Of
twelve millions made the Mezieaa var.
But when, in addition 10 the disturbing
and distracting influences Of pIehosic
Treasury, We have the4e Of unusual and
bitter divisions Of sectional and social
chssacteS and Of foreign policy; Il Is ob.
vioss that tse epalsive toscss Of political
Reorganization have ncverqseh 50 power.

THE PAIRING OF the NIGHTINGALE
Although ST. Valentines Day has not quite
reached us, yet the first bird of the season.
has already chosen her mate. The Queen
of Song has committed matrimony Jenny
Lind is Jenny Lind no longer, but Mrs.
Goldschmidt. In plain English, the follow
ing record was made yesterday on the books
Of the Boston City Register: .ga.7.
Married, In this city, at the residence of
MIR. s. G. Ward, by the Rev. Charles Ma
son, assisted by the Rev. DR.. wainwright of
New ,YOrk-the Swedish Consul, the Hon.

N. /. Bowditch, her legal adviser, and other
friands being present-Otto Goldschmidt, of
Hamburg, to Mdllc Jenny Lind. of Stock
holmn, Sweden" - l.su .a. &.rs
Mr. Goldschmidt has attended Jenny rs
her pianist for many months past. The
match has taken every body by surprise,
though VIC must say that we were struck
with something confoundedly arch and rogu-
ish in the twinkle Of her eye, when she sung
"John Anderson, my Joe" the last time she
appeared in publicin this city. Such, how
ever, has been the discretion of the parties,
that it may have been ""forcgone conclu-
sion" for years. The next song of the
Nightingale will. Of course be alone, sweet

Since that time, and up to the presen,, she
has been milked regularly, and has given on

CosT OF PREAcHERs.-A paragraph is
circulating freely in the newspapers, respect
inc the excessive cost of preachers in the
United States. It is said that there are
over 10000 ministers of various denomina-
tons, and that at an average cost of S375
each, there would be expended the enorm-
ous sum of So, 600, 900, annually for this one
thing But what is the cost for keeping up
an opposite state of affairs, Over twelve
thousand dollars arc annually spent on the
10000 criminals in prison in this country;
and were Satan to have his own way undls-
puted, it is likely no sum of money or means
could keep order in our midst. The minis
ter, separate from other considerations, is The
