ALBANY, Monday, April 10, 1856.
The appointments for New YOrk-POhce Com
missiOners Port Wardens and HarbOrmasters-w1l
probably be sent into the Senate tomorrow. Some
say that nothing has yet been settled as to VINO are
TO receive Executive favor and that everything is at
heads and points, while others cOnhdehtiy assert
that the State has been written up and will not be
changed There are those who profess to know
exactly who are to be appointed and who
disappointed The latter class viii, III any
event, so inevitably exceed the former that
after the final fxaton and announcement
of the appointments, we may reasonably
anticipate an extent and quality OF profanity that
will eclipse the performances OF our army III IAN
ders. reported by uncle Toby. 1t is to be hoped
that however many private individuals may be
orieyed at the want of Executive appreciation OF
their merits the public will not be disappointed Ill
what II has right 10 expect at tho hands OF GOVef-
nor King, viz: that he Will select for these nnpOr-
tant posts men of undOubtcd capacity and integrity

the oficos Of Harbor Masters and Port Wardens
none but residents of the Port of New-Iork, and
persons who have at least some general knowledge
1f the duties they will be required to perform. This
NAV be an innovation in the Executive Department,

One Of the most important OF the INSTITUTIONS

clans mors, than seven hundred of whose names

something practical were done for the moral
and medical treatment and restraint of the
