WAR DEPARTMENT,
WASHINGTON, APRIL liz, 1852.
SR have received your letter Of the 3l ultimo request
ing be informed whether certain property part there
Of had been the Quartermasters department
by Collector Collier when he reached his destination and the
amount In reply thereto the honor to inform you
that FAR as this Department informed no part of the
perty has been accounted for II believed that the whole
Of or left the route, though on this point the
Department has no official information
Very respectfully, your obedient servant
c. NJ. CONRAD, Secretary Of War
Hon. C. W. ROCKWELL, Commissioner of Customs.
Mr.. PEARcE If the property was lost or Ls1 N,
route as the Secretary supposes II not converted to
his own use by Mr. Collier. Mr.. Collier was nominated
TO the Senate as Collector Of the Customs II he had
basely abused his trust and peculated upon the public
property in the which the Senator from Caor
MIA supposes but which is not sustained by the letter
which the Senator from Virginia has read, it the
duty of the Senate, undoubtedly to reject him. Most
If the Administration had known Of that
the President would not have nominated him
nor have suffered his nomination by Gen. Taylor to
main before the Senate after he came into power.
The Senator from California has spoken of divers abuses
nv Mr. Collier after he arrived at San Francisco has
poken of his seizure Of French cargoes and il is fact
as he says that Of these seizures wrongully
made 1t occasioned good deal Of trouble at the time
But many of these seizures, informed, fully
justified by revenue laws In regard to the others
the fact is that instructions sent to Mr. Collier in tim
to prevent these improper seizures, accidentally
to Europe instead Of California and he did not receiv
them in time to avoid the into which he fell. Ii
regard TO the lawful seizures Of property which he made
and the selling Of that property what the 70

2 handkerchief, and from another pair of boots.
He not only confessed to things he had stolen,
buthe even said he had stolen things which it
was proved that he had purchased The con-
duct, together with the fact that many of the
stolen articles were frivolous, if not useless, aud
also that he had refused to escape when he had
been allowed an opportunity and means Of doing
so-all tended to raise doubts of his sanity in
the public mind, and to engender sympathy for
himself and family
We could instance many other cases of a SINH
lar nature; but we think the foregoing enough to
cause enquiry into this matter. In view, there
fore, of these facts, it becomes subject for Sc
rious inquiry if justice would not be better served
were some rule established by which the inno-
cent might be protected from the consequences
now awarded to unfortunate predictions or
mental diseases How many persons may there
not be at this moment in our State Prisons who
are tbe victims, not of depraved educations, but
of metaphysical disturbances, and who are unable
even to express the longing desire they have to
steal, defraud, or cheat. In the opinion Of their
fellow men, and in the judgement Of the law,
thew are cast from out the pale of society, the
finger of scorn is ever pointed at them, and thus
they are condemned to mingle and be really cor
rupted by those with whom they associate The
drunkard often steals that he may purchase in
toxication. Are not other organs than alimen-
tiveness affected by the potency of alcohol We
do not stop to enquire. 1t is enough for us to
know that they are guilty of theft to visit upon
them terrible punishments. Is this humanity
is it justice Society ought rather to insist
upon enquiries into the cause which may be the
parent of crime If the disease can be removed
by the physician why should the unfortunate be
imprisoned? In this matter the language of phre-
nology is imperative. It declares that particular
organs may, and often are, diseased, and that
crime results from the afliction under which the
peculiar faculty labors-that it can be cured, and
instead of inhaming it the more by bringing the
patient into contact with others equally unfor-
tunate, every care should be taken to modify
and eventually eradicate the fever or infamma-
tion. Who would inhame a limb already swollen
to the cuticle's utmost tensionl We prefer ra-
ther to employ cooling emoients, and endeavor
by every art to soothe the diseased member, and
SO restore it to a state of healthfulness If the
same course was pursued with the fevered organs
of the Uranium greater good would result than in
throwing them among those who rather tend to
excite the disease and throw the patient into
81 higher fever. We are satisfied that if more hu-
mane methods were adopted there would be less
crime recorded on our criminal calendars, and
fewer cells occupied in our costly jails. Is not
the experiment worth trial

Webster on the Fence,

What astounding somersets man anxious to
quarter in the White House for term of years
will perform so as to get round the various little
questions, which now and then jump up like fish
in search of food. Dan began to smell afar off
sort of WOrkingman's party under the title of
g Young America, who go ''for the freedom of
the public lands to actual settlers" Dan twig-
ged the idea and saw it would take with the
''dear people, and forthwith in an elaborate
speech he ''solemnly endorsed, On due considera-
ton, the freedom of the public domain Of
course Webster didn't have the Presidency in
view when he pledged himself to this important
measure. Understanding this, the gentlemen
interested in the Illinois Central Railroad ought
not to have placed him in an unfortunate predic-
ament by requiring him to answer their note.
The reply of the Secretary of State is decidedly
of a very rich tint. Ia speaking of the country
through which the railroad is laid, he says he
''never saw such an immense tract Of valuable
land; and subsequent discoveries Of many sorts
of the most valuable minerals produce entire
conviction that the State of Illinois may become
as prosperous in its manufactures as in its agri-
culture"
This Central Ra lroad Company, mind you,
ask that portion of this ''valuable land" may
be dotated to them-not that they want it par
ticularly but as it is very valuable" there is
an excellent opportunity for speculation. One
would have supposed that the " Union" and
"Workingmens" candidate would have kept
mum, or come out with letter, built on the
Hulseman model, that would have annihilated
the railroad and wouId-be land mOnopolsts.A -
Dan didn't do anything of the sort, however.
and therein has he stuck mis- foot He says =
g The grant to the Illinois Railroad disposes Of
large portion of the public domain, but it will
be well disposed Of" OF course this "valuable
territory could not be better "disposed Of" in
the speculator's estimation, than by making a
free and unconditional grant of it to this COM
pany. They will only dispose of it, because it is
''valuable," to Industrious emigrants at price
which in the minds of strictly honest men would
be considered fraudulent. 1t is right and just to
bestow on moneyed corporations land for which
they have no possible need unless it is to swell
out their already distended wallets. The pool
man might whistle sometime before tract oi
"valusble land' on the line of railroad, in the
heart of Illinois, would be given to him. How
Piles opposite as the poles to his conscience il
rather more than we can fathom. Land aggre
cation and land limitation won't work in tn,
same team The off-horse will shy, and if tn,
beast don't upset the driver before he gets within
sight of the White House, then are we no pro
