Wesre informed that an active opposition vii
be made By come ship-owners and others to the Dill
before tie Legislature for the removal OF tue
Quarantine. A subscription paper was circulated
last week and large amount of money was raised,
bu, fer what purpose We are not advised. If the
welfare of this great city, if the safety of the lives
of her ieeming population and the permanent pros
perity of Der commercial interests demand the re-
moysl of the Quarantine, we presume that the
money subscribed BY few ship-cwners to defeat
,hi. great object might as we'll be kept in their
pockets. So long as vessels with the infection of
yellow fever on board are permitted to anchor
within sight of the city at our present Quar-
sntine anchorage, so long will the lives of
thousands of citizens be jeOparded, thousands Of
strangers be deferred from visiting US during the
Summer months, and millions of trade be diverted
to other cities. The opposition is short-sghted, to
say the least it may be that it is selfish.

THE LATEST NEWS,
RECEIVED BY
MAGNETIC TELEGRAPH.
FROM WASHINGTON.

Special Correspondence Of The n. T. Tribune.
WAsHrsGroy, Feb. Is, 1857.
The Senate passed yesterday the important
House bill for two wagon roads to California one
beginning at Fort Kearney and going by the way
of she South Pass all the way through; the other
starting at FL Psso, near Santa Fe, and going to
the Pacific, the road between Santa Fe and Mis-
souri, not needing an appropriation. Here at least
is useful expenditure Of the public money.
The Senate at the same time passed the Minnesota
Land bill; it was introduced by Mr. ToOmbs aud is
political move to damage the Republicans. The
object beng forsseen it will probably be frustrated
by the bill receiving their support in the House
The Dallss Treaty is ogain under discussion, it
stands NJ chance of confirmation; the object of
tie msorty is to get rid Of all obstrucsons to the
spread Of niggerdom in Central America, Clayton
Treaty and all.
None of the Appropriation bills have yet been
sent TO the Senate, and business bids fair to be as
much hudded at the close of the session as ever.
Both branches will meet at II O'Clock from after
tomorrow.
The opinion prevails here that the Kansas Bogus
Legislature have so fixed things as to insure the
adoption of Slave Constitution by their Conveu-
iicn, and the aspect of affairs denotes that Kansas
will be admitted as Slave State next Winter.
The Investigation Committees report is about
ready the discussion on it is likely to prove Sc
rious interruption to business.
Mr.. Wilson will introduce bill tomorrow to
pay Massachusetts, $3.50 600 for the expenses of her
coast defense in the last war. Virginia and Mary
land got a vote in the Senate on Friday, to pay
back the $4,000 they gave to the Government to
establish the Capitol here, and it seems good time
to put in the long neglected claim Of Massachusetts,
The opinion is gaining ground that nothing can
be done with the Tariff this session, beyond increas
ing the free List. The conflict of views exhibited in
debate points only in this direction.
Great exertions are making TO revive the Atlantic
Telegraph bill and push it through.
Mr. Buchanan has not yet been ableto find Pre-
rDier The conservative influence is very strong
for Robert j. Walker. The South have got Mr..
Buchanan in their breeches' pocket.

The Senatorial election in California, a. described
in the letters Of correspondents there for which
the reader is referred TO another page, aud Illus
trated by the manifesto Of Mr.. Gwin, pre-
sents some curious and interesting features.
l. seems that Mr.. Brcderick having beaten
the Pro Slavery party of the BUCCANEERS, who
had long and bitterly resisted his ambition,
and having got them beneath his feet, finally
made treaty with them, by which their submis-
zion was completed. Under the terms of this
treaty he was TO allow Gwin TO be elected to the
Senate along with himself, while Gwin was to hand
over to Broderick snd bis friends al the Offices
which Mr.. Buchanan will have to fill in the State.
Herce Gwn Ms manifesto with its loud advertisement
to the Office seekers that they must apply to Brod
eiick, who alone is TO have charge Of that depart
ment of the business A defeated faction never an
bounced their humiliation with such circumstance
and such ecst
So far Mr.. Buchanan has plain sailing with bis
California supporters. He has only to consult
BIoderick and follow his directions. But th's glori.
fcation of Broderi,k and thh singing small Of Gwin
must be ressrded IS the cause Of misfortune

White No. Mems

If it be asked, Why this unequal arrangement OF
Ci,cuits the answer is obvious. Though there is
no law for it. still the custom has been established
of having resident Judge Of the Supreme Court
in each Circuit. Hence, by giving the Slave Stated
though they have no claim to it, either by popu-
lation or busness-fye out Of the nine Circuits, a
plausible pretense is afforded, supported by CUSTOM
though not by law, for giving them five out of the
nine Judges who constitute the Court.
The Supreme Court Of the United States, FROM
the nature of some of the questions which it de-
cider, is to be considered as political as well as
judicial tribunal. As such, in Democratic
Government, the Judges ought to be apportioned
upon Democratic principles. At least the Court
ought not to stand exposed as it now does, to tie
suspicion and the charge of being specially consd-
tuted with view to enable the minority to rule
instead of the majority.

New-Hanpshire, Massachusetts, and Rhode hlsad
constitute the Fist Circuit while Vermont
Connecticut add New-York constitute the
Second. But these two Circuits alone, IS they In.
clude those States in which commerce and naviga-
ton are chiefly concentrated, furnish by far the
larger half of the entire business OF the Federal
Cour.s. Either Of them, certainly the Second Cir-
cult furnishes more business than az the slavehod-
ing States put toge.her and yet these saveh olding
States are arranged in no less than six Circuits.
Nor is this the only anomaly. Five States are LETT
gihou. any Circuit Courts at all, or rather their
District Courts are clothed with all the powers of
Circuit Courts. In fact the pressure Of business
in the First and Second Circuits has led to an eI-
tension Of the power of the District Courts and 10
an increase of the authority of the District Judges,
by which the distinction between the powers of these
Courts ha, been almost oblitered, and their gr.da-
ton Of authority as originally established almost
entirely taken away.
Looked at from q political point of view, the
present 81 stem is hardly lees unequal, and if posi-
Die still more Objectionable. The following table,
which Mr. Stanton produced to the House in sup
port of his motion. shows the white population and
the Congressional representation of the different
Circuits:

The Report of the State Senate Committee on
Commerce. in relation to our New-Y"rk Haroor-
Masters, makes some very strange disclosures both
az to the mesns by which these appoin :ments are
obtained and the way which the office is admins
tered. There are eleven Harbor- Masters, who hold
their Office by Governors nomination and the Sen
ates approval, the term being two years. They
are entitled to certain legal fees, which, however,
are not paid to the officers individually, but under
an arrangement into the Custom House, whence
they are distributed equally, once month, among
the whole number, the amount of fees accruing in
some of the eleven districts being much greater than
in the Others The fees thus distributed amounted,
the last calendar year. to $37, 166 "a, giving to
each of these officers salary of 81 31S so; which,
considering that the Office is not very aborious, and
in some Of the districts almost a sinecure, would
seem to be pretty good pay. 1t appears,
however that some of the iDcumbents are BY
no means satisfied with it. Not only is money
taken under the name Of fees 70 which there is
no legal title, but presents are received to large
amount for furnishing berths for vessels, while
those who dece 10 give these presents lind it very
difficult to have their vessels provided fog at all.
Indeed il would eem from the evidence that e1-
elusive privileges for the occupation of certain bershs
are regularly bought and sold.
Such lucrative Offices, fringed with such wide
margin Of cabbage, are Of course very eagerly
sought, and it would seem that part of the money
illegally received from the merchants, Ia spent in
bribery and corruption at Albany in obtaining re-
appointments. 1t is certain that as to the indi-
vlduais personally involved by the report of the
Committee, and the evidence published with it, the
investigation cannot stop where it now is. AS to
them and their respective merits or dement's, We
shall doubtless be enabled at some future time to
spesk with more certainty We shall confne our
selves for the present TO the recommendations Of the
Committee. They suggest that the difficulty and
delay of redress by complaint to the Governor make
many submit TO extoronate demands, and they sug-
pest that the HarbOr- Masters aud Port Wardens be
placed under the authority of the Pilot COmnls-
sicners and Board of Underwriters so far rs relates
TO the investigation of charges against them, with
power of suspension during the proceeding. This is
all very well as far it goes, but it evidently does
not 60 far enough. The whole matter requires re-
organization. Why have number Of Harbor-
Masters who have no duties to perform beyond re-
ceiying an annual salary of some four thousand
dollars The abuses brought to light in reation to
these Offices afford an opportunity for getting nd
of these sinecures-an opportunity which ought to
be improved. Ideness, according to the copy
book, is the parent of crime, and certainly the say
ing would seem be verified in this instance.
