The intelligent correspondent of the
Baltimore Sun wrote on the l7lh, that Mr.
LEAKE had declined the appointment ol
Commissioner to the Sandwich Islands
and it said that Gen. STARKwEATHER, oil
Ohio, formerly member of Congress, will
have it. Gen. S. was then in Washing

of III would not accept Of his, the Charge
to one Of the South American States. JOHN
APPLETON, Secretary of Legation to Eng
land under Mr.. BUCHANAN, ii is said, has
declined, in consequence Of serious and
sudden domestic affliction. The same
letter says that Gen. DIX, Of New York, is
not to go to France.
The result Of the movements of Rus

in this war. it will not be long before she
will turn her arms toward France. The

JOHN d. PARK-Dedr Sir: 1t is now two
years since nay wife was cured. She had been
afflicted from childhood with scIoua, the disease
making its appearance on different parts Of her
body, limbs, and face, confining her to bed for.

advice of the first physicians in New Jersey, also.
in Indiana without her teceiving any permanent
benefit. The disease continued slowly to advances

having formed several large running ulcers. which
were continually enarging aud dscharging offsn-

! Three years since. she commenced using Dr.

| rilla, which has entirely healed all of her ulcers,
and up to the present. time she enjoys perfectly

been permitted in her family. the disease could not
have been caused by the use of that medicine.-

A Genteel swindling Operation.

One of the evils of entrusting Public Mo.
ney to individuals and incorporated Com.
panies, is forcibly illustrated in the fnan-
cial operation of Mr.. Corwin, while Secre-
tary of the United States Treasury with
the defunct Columbus Mutual Insurance
Company, by which the Government was
.diddled out of the nice little sum of One
Hundred Thousand Dollars!
Sometime ago, when it first became
known that the late Secretary of the Treas
ury had made depository of this institu-
tion. and that it had failed without forking
over the deposits, it was reported that Mr..
Corwin would himself make good the a.
mount to the Treasury, in the event that
the institution failed to do so, which at the
time it was intimated it would be able 10
do. 1t appears. however, that the Colum-
bus Insurance Company's and the Secre-
tary's promises have alike failed, and the
Government has to pocket the loss.
The history of this financial operation is
given by correspondent of the Baltimore
Sun. who has recently had access to the
original correspondence. The President
Of Bank in Columbus, gave to Mr.. Mi
nor, another financial gentleman, letter
of introduction, informing the Secretary
that Mr.. Minor was o K-a man Of char.
acter and standing, and could be safely
entrusted with the transaction OF any fnan
cial business. Mr.. Secretary Corwin there
upon gave Mr.. Minor draft upon the As
sistant Treasurer at New York for the sun
of hundred thousand dollars, with direc
tions to transfer the same, within certain
time, to New Orleans. The money wen
as Ear as Columbus and there came to {
halt. Somehow or other ii got into the hands
ofthe Bankrupt Columbus Insurance Com
pany. Only five thousand dollars have
ever been recovered by the United States
from these repositories and agents. Blu
Mr.. Corwin had a suit brought agains
Minor and the bank president who recon
mended him for the job, which suit ha
never come to trial The government,
seems, has no security whatever for thi
money.
A National Sub Ire asury, in which th
Government money shall be kept, and tina
in coin, is no longer q party measure
is an indispensable agent of the Govern
ment. recognized as such by all parties
and this plundering operation Of the Co
lumbus Insurance Company is only an
other evidence Of the utility and absolut
necessity of such an institution. The stric
construction Of the Sub Treasury act, b.
the present Secretary of the Treasury, j
deserving of commentator. Keep tn
Government money out of the reach of al
bankers and brokers, which can alone

dent Treasury.-Zanesrille Times, Inde

a0ur Flag is There"

Mr.. Bryant. in letter from Athens, de-.
scrbing the difficulties of DR.. King. the A.
mercan missionary, with the government,
says:
Zone Sunday, large crowd Of Greeks,
led by priest of their church, assembled
in his house and garden to hear one oil his
discourses. His subject was the duty OF
religious toleraton. AT the close, the priest
asked question concerning some things
advanced in the discussion, to which DR..
King gave prudent answer. The priest
then demanded an explanation of certain
positions laid down in another discourse,
which DR.. King declined giving at that
time, observing that he would agree to ap-
point almost any other day for the discus
sion. The multitude Immediately joined
the priest in demanding thatthe discussion
should go on at that moment, with such
fury and noise that his friends thought his
life in danger. 1t happened at the time
that the American Consul was absent from
Athens, and the functions of the Office were
delegated TO DR.. King. An American flag.
a day or two previous, had been received
by DR.. King from Washington. In the
midst Of the tumult, at the very moment
whan the multitude seemed ready to tear
him to pieces, he bethought himself Of the
flag, and hastily unrolling it, let it stream
from one of the windows. As soon as the
mob saw it, their clamors were hushed,
they began to dispense in the utmost haste,
and in five minutes no one Of them was
left in the house or garden"
