Mr.. ELLIs--SIR |: The Star" of Saturday even
ing did me service which hasten to acknowl-
edge 1t informs its readers that the card"
lately printed In Its columns, purporting to be
signed by me- was not inserted in accordance with
any request Of mine. 1t was, it appears, published
as an advertisement at the solicitation Of "a
friend" Now, sir, give that friend" credit
for the good will manifested in that socitude, but
certainly never suggested, authorized, nor would
without the imprimatur Of the National Intelti-
geacer !; and, rather than have submitted, know
ingly, to the printing thereof as an original COM
munication for the STAR" ! should have issued
my appealin hand-bill form.
am very glad, indeed, that the "Star" has
voluntarily disclaimed any agency Of mine in the
transaction. Although IL is not considered relia-
BILE authority for anything, think it has relieved
me from an imputation which has annoyed me.
The insinuations SO gratuitously conveyed against
me in the editorial alluded to, require no special
animadversion. Lest, however, my disgust be con-
strued as retracton, beg leave to re-assert that
during my official connexion with the general gov
eminent, invariably opposed the indiscriminate
removal of competent and faithful clerks, on ac-
count of mere partisan opinions" said, also,
in my card, as published in the National Inteli-
gencer that "unless proyocation be given, under
some responsible name, should never again, will
lingly, allude to the occurrence"
As an attack by the :" Star cannot, possibly,
intrude within the scope of that contingency, its
attempted provocation is Insufficient to disturb my
equanimity. A responsible name means, in my
photography, the name Of some respectable per-
son, that is, a person worthy of being answered
Now, the Star" is, in the opinion of those whose
esteem value, neither worth nor fit to be
noticed l entertain for that mercenary journal the
most placid, intense, unmitgated contempt, and
scorn its spite as heartily as should disdain its
succor. SAMUEL York; ATLEE.

late John Pickering, of Boston, one Of the most
learned lawyers and accomplished scholars this
country has produced, reviewed bis course on both
these questions, In the Law Reporter Of lo40,
ls4l, with mastery ability, and held him up TO the
scorn and contempt which his unprincipled conduct
so richly merited. In the evil days on which We
have fallen, these articles Of Mr.. Pickering should
be reproduced as forming the most thorough an
initiation of demagogue recorded In the annals
of the United States.
The editor of Mr.. Stewards writings is Mr.. Ba-
ker who formerly kept shoe-store In Troy, New
York, and who has been employed OF late in the
distinguished capacity Of private secretary to Mr..
Seward. He is a man without the least preten-
sions to literary ability and harmless tool In the
hands Of his superior. Grub street itself would
laugh at such collaboration The old Horatian
MAXIM no sutor ultra crepidaa may be literally
applied to him with great force. As shoemaker
he was respectable-as an editor he is intolerable ;
installing dross for gold-bass- for white-oak,
and demagoguism for statesmanship. Not uncom-
mon errors, we admit---but not the less for that
to be exposed and rebuked.
LIFE or GENERAL SAM HoUsros, New YORK :
j. @. DERBY.--Ths life of General Houston, is
attributed to G. Z. Lester, late United States
Consul at Genoa, and writer Of much abilr
ty. General Houston's career is filed with novel
and romantic incidents, and 10 well adapted to the
hand Of skilful biographer. Mr.. Lester has used
the material thus afforded with judgment and dis
elimination, and has produced volume which
will be read with avidity in every logcabn In the
country, and by thousands beside in the crowded
marts of commerce, and the places were politi-
clans most do congregate for General Houston
is man Of prominence at this time. His name Is
" in the mouths Of men" and flies at the head Of
many newspapers as a candidate for the Presiden-
cy. For all who wish to become thoroughly ac-
quainted with the career Of this hardy pioneer and
gallant soldier, we commend the volume before
us, which is elegantly printed and handsomely IL
lustrated.
All the above-named works are sold by Taylor

The SYRACUSE AMERICAN STATE CouscIL.--From
the report which we publish this morning, Of
the results Of the late Americans State Council at
Syracuse II appears that there were delegates pre-
sent from twelve hundred local councils, that the
proceedings ofthe convention we're conducted with
harmony, that new constitution was adopted
unanimously, and that they adjourned under the
best auspices for the future.
The great question Of the platform has been re-
ferred to the National Council, which meets at
Philadelphia in June. Meantime, upon the "third
degree" the New York Americans occupy con-
sentative position, which, we hope will be under
stood in Virginia. 1t is believed, too, that the
National Council will reject Gen. Wilson, elected
delegate thereto from Massachusetts,, and the
whole abolition batch with which he Is associated.
Let Virginia now lead the way In her election OF
the oath snstant, and sound, national, substan-
tial, and homogeneous American organization will
follow at Philadelphia. New York Is ready. Let
Pennsylvania prepare to second the action Of the
New Workers and Virgnians In nationel move
ment which will sweep the field.

to- Forney and Reederl The second object in
selling an interest TO Governor Reeder, in the
town of Pawnee Chat is Its name) was, as they
allege, that the Governor has the power to
make 1t the seat Of government, and to erect
government buildings in It'll And so certain
were they Of Forney' influence with the Presi-
dent In this matter, that the Legislature
has actually been called by Governor Reeder to
meet on this Gerry reservation, which Reeder,
Forney and Company intend to own, in the
future.
1t is also said, that the commanding officer
at the fort, is to DO interested in the scheme
that under some influence, he has torn down
and burnt up the buildings in rival settlement
on the reservation, and has allowed the Forney
and Reeder company to put up few buildings
thereon undisturbed! Now, If this DO true,
land Reeder and Foney can answer We ven-
ture to say, that the commanding officer will
find it difficult to respond satisfactorily to the
stern head Of the War Department! What
ever other faults Secretary Davis may be
charged with, he has not yet contaminated
himself with "pickings and stealings," nor do
we believe he will lend himselfto this company.
Before the next Congress adjourns, we opine
that some Of the Forneyites will find "Jordan
a hard road to travel"
Here then we find that the Governor Of Kan
sas, and his bosom friend Colonel Forney, and
their aiders and abetters, are charged by the
Missourians, with speculation, requiring, to
be successful, surrender by the President, Of
public military reservation Of immense val
ue We find these men, 80 far presuming
upon their influence with the President, IN a
matter Of dollars and cents, that they build
houses on the reservation, convene the Legis-
lature there, and have actually matured
their places to realize their fortune by the
Presidents avoritism! Fort Leavenworth
reservation is estimated at the value Of mil
lion and half Of dollars! Such speculation,
together with the results Of certain book and
paper transactions, would make millionaires OF
half dozen Forneys. But lot tho book and
paper matters pass for the present. We shall
pursue this subject in our next, the pressure
of our columns requiring US to close this arti-
Gle for to-day.
