There are certain politicians at Washington and
elsewhele--of course they desire no offices, but are
only anxious to counsel General Pierce for his own
good and that OF the country at large preparatory to
ire formation OF cabinct-who would doubtless feel
under great obligations to the President elect If he
would address them letters, soliciting, conidentially
their opinions and advice. This, take it, General
Pierce will not do until after the 4th Of March, He
is, doubtless, perfectly willing to hear all sides but
thus far, has not gone 50 far away from home as
Washington, begging for advice, take it. Nor do
believe he will do SO just yet. He seems to have
plenty OF volunteer advisers of all kinds, and from
all seotions, ulcsc topcs without putting himself
TO the trouble of impressing an additional number
into the service, at SO late an hour In my opinion,
no man to-day call the names of the new cabinet
no man has yet named single member Of it, on
General Pierces authority, either at Washington
elsewhere. Let the anxious continue to watch and
pray without ceasing, until March 4.
In consequence of his late bereavement, General
Pierce, it Is now understood, will decline public re-
ceptions on his way to Washington. Hc has already
expressed himself to this effect in letter read yes
terday before the Boston municipal government.
There is some prospect now that he will not leave
here before the 25th Of February. Yesterday, Hon.
Ezra Lincoln, aid to Governor Clifford, arrived here,
to extend to him the Inequalities of the common
wealth Of Massachusetts, agreeably to vote of the
Legislature.
General Pierce returned from Andover and left
II, a, O.,
ster, were in Boston last night.
Soon after the of the terrible accident which
caused the death of Gen. p little boy was received
here, poor Irish woman, formerly servant In his
family, hearing Of it, and thinking that the remains
had been brought home TO Mr. Williams his former
clearinghouse in this town, had the misfortune to
fall on the ice, and severely fracture her leg, while
repairing thither. As soon as Gen. r. returned from
Andover, and learned of the casualty to the poor
woman, he made it his first care to repair to her
dwelling, half mile distant, and minister to her
wants. This, learn, he did with his usual benef-
cent and liberal manner. The poor woman is none
the worse of, at least pec,lnary for the accident
Among the outside arrivals at the Eagle, recently,
was chair composed Of hickory twigs, evidently
manufactured with no tools other than an axe and
jack-knife Imprinted and unvarnished. II had
coarse strip OF leather fastened to the outer rim Of
the back. which bore this inscription" Gen. L.
Pierce, from the Proprietor Of the Wight House,
Indianapolis, Ia" The design, as well as the
present, Is an original one. The chair graces one Of
uen. r.. paTiOrS In the fIaSc.
Speaking OF presents reminds me that the superb
California ring recently presented to Gen. Pierce, is
now, and has been for several weeks, exhibition
at the iewelry establishment OF Messs. J. Carter

until Gen. P.'s departure.
