opening for The establishment Of that branch
of business in this city. Feeling the want
of such an cstablishme Mt in common with

as it is intimately connected with our
business, we again make the suggestion to
the trade, that there is in our opinion first

REMOVAL OF JUpoE Bxoxson.--The N.
York Courier and Enquirer has the following
remarks upon this subject.
"Colltctor Bronson has met the fate all
have anticipated, bur in no sense is he vic
tim. He has suffered in nothing; in fact, he
this day enjoys more Of the respect, more of
the consideration and more of the confidence
ofthis community than ever before. lie hr S
lost his Office IMPLY because he has kept true
to his own sense Of right, and would not
make his will subservient to another's. lie
has respected his offi.c too much to permit
either to be mode tool of Executive power.
From first takeing his appointment he has
evinced an honest, intelligent judgment and
manly ndependence-and that is his crime.
There is no pretence that Judge Bronson has
in any respect proved unfaithful to lis official
duty. No attempt W as made to cast reproach
or suspicion upon his official or his personal
| character. In the estim Ition Of every right
minded mau he is just As worthy of his Office
this day as he was tho very day he received
his commission.
The Cabinet has the victory; but few
more such victories Of force over principle
would be the death OF it, were il ten times
stronger than it actually is. President
Pierce's administration cannot be saved by
mere party machinery of any kind; it may
sustain itself by moral power, and in default
Of this must sink beyond redemption.

The National Democrat says Mr.. Guthrie
has planted with liberal hand in the public
mind the seeds of contempt and distrust. II
would require literary reaping machine to
gather 1.-THE of them in, but we thrust our
sickle into yesterdays daily issue. and Gull
the following flowers. We begin with the
Courier and Enquirer. 1t says:
"Mr. Guthrie is an unskilfull headsman;
his awkward brutal hacking disgusted every.
body. To arraign and condemn Collector
Bronson for the causes stated 10 his first des.
patch, violated all idea Of right; to put him
out of official existence in the style just ex-
hibited offends every sense Of decency."
The Journal Of Commerce has the following
strong but guarded expression Of opinion.
We trust that some more substantial mark Of
public favor than skinner" will be given;
neverthele s., as collateral manifestation OF
opinion, It might be ofservice to the Nation
al cause,
"The loss of such man from the public
service will be much regretted by our mer.
chants; and if some formal expression of this
regret were manifested in the shape of a pub
lie dinner or otherwise, a compliment would be
worthily bestowed. At any rate, he will re.
tire with honor from the sphere which he has
occupied so WELL and none the less for the at,
tempt of the Administration to descredit
him."
The Herald commences its leading article
with this correct exposition:
"We have before US, at length, in the re.
moval of Green T.. Bronson from the Collec-
torship Of New York, the last act in the
coup d'etat Of the Cabinet, by which the Van
Burens are restored TO power. Governor
Marcy can now exclaim with Louis Nv. The
State-I am the State!' The eliminating
point of the freesoilers has been reached!
Even the Daily Times, which has endeav.
ored to trim its little sheet to every puff fthe
Cabinet bellows, confesses that ur less the
President at once dsavows the act of Mr.
Guthrie, the National Democracy will have
TO include him also in the war declares
against the "SpoiIs Cabinet" Itsays:
"The hope of breaking up the c abinet mus

lowing paragraph:
"Other Administrations have ventured on
experiments of doubtful propriety, and have
been sternly rebuked; but none received from
any quarter, from former friends as well al
from former enemies, such sea thing expires
sions of contempt and scorn. And the indie
cision and feebleness and insipdty Of the

New Yefk Politics.

The farce in New York between the
"Har Ii" and "Softs" is daily waxing warm
er, and still more exciting, as the day Of cleo
ton approaches. The removal OF Bronson
e. Co. has thrown another incongruous ele-
ment into the great political cauldron, which
was already well nigh the highest point OF
ebolition, and adds ferceness to the cam
paign, rendering it one of the most amus'n
political contests ever had in the Empire
State. Such splitting up and dasn'ng 70
pieces of the old rotten Locofoco Pia'i0rm'
is a necessary preliminary step to a re-organ'
ization of the great Democratic party; at
least so say the Softs, and they appear DE-
termined, especially since the President
smiled upon their proceedings and Patted
them on the back,to either rule and repre-.
sent the Democr attic party of New York, OF
quicksn that step.
The leading subject that now agitates the
primary meetings throughout the State, is
the Bronson affair.
Patriotic speeches are being made by the
Hards expressing their undying love for the
Union, and denouncing the late course Of the
administration in no measured terms. With
them il is "war to the knife" The Softs are
more compromising in their tones, and make
themselves the ready tools Of the President
and Secretary Marcy. to do their bidding and
strive to thrust their milk-and-water policy
upon the whole party. To the Wings, it is
50 much of hawk and buzzard fight, that
they profess only to be amused with the new
phase the cause of their old adversaries as
sumes. -,
The approaching election, taking place
on the 9th inst, will decide nothing so far az
any professed principle Of Locofocoism is
concerned; it will ouly decide an angry feud,
growing out of real or imaginary unfair dis
tribution of the spoils- The Softs being in
the majority in the State, of course the de-
cision will be in favor Of themselves and the
President.
