PArENr JoBs-C COMMENCEMENT or PIE LOBBY
OPERaToNs.-We see that the ChafIee patent is
again before Congress, on a petition presented
by Mr.. Pugh of Ohio. for its further extension.
This may be regarded as the inauguratory ope-
ration Of the lobby for the session, and the pre-
cursor Of host of other jobs Of q more or less
profitable kind. We stated the other day that
Mr.. Matteson, the organizer Of the lobby in the
last Congress. and who Notwithstanding his ex-
pulsion from the House, has again been allowed
to take his seat, would be on hand on the first
day Of the session to marshal his forces, aided
by his fdiIS debates. Simonton OF the New York

The amount OF corruption that win
be brought to bear on Congress dur
ing the present session will, we believe,
be greater than has ever before been known. The
results Of the Matteson and Gilbert investiga-
iion instead of checking the evil, have given il
a greater impulse aud extension. The re-
admission to the floor Of the House Of the par
ties expelled for participation in that disgrace
ful affair has satisfied the lobby men that they
have nothing to apprehend from the tone and
temper Of the present Congress The profit
gate bargain by which the spoils connected
with the public printing have been portioncd out
amongst some half dozen political partisans,
with the concurrence and assistance of mem
bers Is pretty conclusive evidence Of the way
in which the public interests will he sacrificed.
Never before was the lobby so strong, aad
never were its opportunities for plumber so
numerous.
These patent extensions are in themselves an
inexbaustlble mine Of wealth TO the lobby spe.
culators. Besides the ChefEce interest there
are some three or four Others, such as the
Mccormick reaper, the Colts pistol and Hay

and other fat pickings. from which trading po-
litians. starving journalists and idle lawyers
can all CLEAN something. Uncle SANS estate
may be compared to an Irish patrimony--it is

ried through this session. Corruption b in the
ascendant, and the lobby allpowerful. When
the country is tired of seeing its most precious
interests bartercd away by an organized band
Of bood-suckers who are fattening upon its en-
trails, IL may perhaps think of applying a rene
dy. In the meanwhile VIC must be resigned TO
play the part of Cassaudre 20 an unwilling
auditory, and to grosn over abuses that we

warning that unless Mr.. Douglas is very eau

ceive thrashing. d "a Sumner from the indig.
nant chivalry Of the South.
We have indeed, heard something Of a pur-
pose, on the part of Southern men, to provoke
Mr.. Douglas into a quarrel from which he can
have no escape but through bloody fight; and
where there is so much smoke we suspect there
must be little fire. This suspicion is some
what strengthened from scurrilous paragraph
which we read the ether day lin Virginia
newspaper ofthe dre-eating school) In reference
to Senator Sumner. The writer OF the said para
graph therein admonisbed the unfortunate Scna-

GOVERNORS MHssACEs.-It is really not worth
while TO devote much time or space to Gov
ernor Kings Message; but one cannot help ask
ing when shall we End State Governor with
sense enough to mind his own business, and to
leave the President and Congress to manage
theirs! The other day We published On alb
stract Of the Message Of the Governor of Flori-
da, more than half Of which was devoted TO O
discussion Of federal politics, and denuncia-
ton Of certain persons and parties who never
have had OF can have anything to do with the
State affairs of Florida. Just so, our own Gov
ernCr King diates on the local questions Of
distant Territory named Kansas, and on the &c
ton of the general government thereon mat
tiers with Which, he--in his official capacity
has no more to do than the Queen Of England.
II strikes us that if the Governor Of New
York devoted n little more time TO the break
down Of the State banks (Which were always
held to he impregnable), ano to the encroach-
ments Of the great railway corporations on the
peoples liberties, and TO the enormous increase
of taxation, he would do bis duty better In his
present station in life than he can do by bcrat-
ing certain politicians about extra State con-
Germs. And when The Governor Of Florida has
settled his little affair with the Seminole In
dlans, and paid up the old Florida claim, IL will
be quite time for him to teach the President his

WANTED LIGHT on THE CURRENCY QrEs-
TroS.--We perceive that Mr.. Fitch has pro-
posed in the Senate 10 tax oil bank notes Of
small denominations: and simultaneously Mr..
Pugh OF Ohio has presented a petition in ia
vor OF the establishment of a national bank,
with sixty millions capital and thirty years
charter. The object Of these gentlemen is
doubtless simply TO bring before the Senate the
general subject Of our banking and currency
systems in connection with the late revulsion
The design is q good one. Beyond question, so
allimportant a subject should be thoroughly
discussed and ventilated, and the light of the
Senate shed upon il to the fullest extent.
1t may he remarked however that when the
Treasury Note bill was before Congress. the op-
portunity was fair for searching inquiry into
the principles Of our 6nancisl and commercial
systems. No one took advantage of IL; no light
was thrown upon The subject by any member OF
either house. Perhaps the omission was due 10
the haste with which the bill was forced through
Congress. In this case, the present movements
will afford an opportunity Of repairing the
omission. n, however II should be found TO be
the case that neither the Senate nor the House
of Representative contains men capable Of dis
