SHABBY TREATMENT OF PUBLIC OFFIcER.-Our
readers will recoect that the Hon. f.. Warren Noise,
United States Dstrct-Atorney for the Eastern District
of Louisiana, some weeks since resigned that office
AID Isaac T.. Morse was appointed in his place. The
cause of this change not very apparent ut the
time but several letters and dispatches have recently
been published, which throw some light on the sub
iect, trough it is far from being made clear. The
Postmaster of New-Orleans, it seems, suspected
of crime by the authorities at Washington, and legal
proceedings were commenced. In ordinary cases it
would of course be expected that Mr.. Noise would
conduct the prosecution. But Mr. Blair, confidential
agent Of the Office Department not being on the
hest of terms with Mr. Noise desired the Government
To employ some other person. Accordingly Mr.. At
torney General Cushing addressed a note to Mr..
Morse requesting him to act in case he should not
he able to do it, any other lawyer Mr.. Blair
might designate. But Mr.. Morse accepted the
position, and addressed note TO Mr. Noise, saying
that his services had been employed in an important
cause commenced by the Government and that in
the OF the proceedings it would be necessary to
use the professional aid and Of Mr.. Noise, and
desiring to know whether be would consent to such
auar cement. Mr.. Noise of course declined having
his name used in that manner. The Solicitor Of the
Treasury requests Mr. Noise TO assist Mr. Morse
Mr. Noise replies 20 the Solicitor that he shall do no
such thpg-that the object of the request to in
duce him 20 resign, which he should lose time in
doing. The letter of resignation is worth copying as
well as the dispatch of Mr. Cushing to Mr.. Noise, and
Mr. Noises reply:
