The Letters to the President by Mr.. Henry G.
CAhrY, which have recently appeared in our columns,
have bttn reprinted in hat dsome pamphlet of l7l
octave pages, which can be prOcuted at TnE TRIBUNE
flee puCe 81 cents These letters contain by far tue
fullest discussion of the receu financial catastrophe,
and of the present diou and prospects of the agr
csltuie ndusty and commerce OF the country, which
has yet sppeaied That they are written with emf
nent ability and abound in the most instructive expo
sitiops OF the vital principles of Political Economy,
every who has read them vii! testify. No one,
whatever bis opinions, study them without profit,
and we irusthst in their pssent form they may have
wide circulation.

John Cadw allader has been nominated and con-
frued as L. S. District Judge for the District Of
Eastern Pennsylvania, vice John X. Kane, deceas-
ed. Mr.. C. was member of the last House-a
very poor debater, but most reliable voter for
every wrong and outrage devised by the controllers
of his party especially agains Kansas. He is prob
ably the least fit for JUDGE Of all the candidates
whose names were submitted to the President
Judge Sberwoodwas probably the best, but Vice
President Dallas would have been the most graceful

extent OF the East Indian commerce. Our eyes
are always dazzed by visions Of the wealth Of

We often see il stated that the Cunard line OF
steamers have been eminently successful in pecu-
mary point of view. The following paragraph,
from late London letter, does not corroborate
this view of the case. II even hints that disas-
trous revelations are in store, and that it may be
found after all, that the bottom has fallen out Of
this as out of good many other oint-stock specu-
latiohs SET on foot in Ergland within the last ten
years:
Eyery one h. regrets Discontinued running Of the Col

in June which snxoury ooked forward TO- II Is believed
that strange revelations will be made
If it shou!d turn out as here conjectured, We
shsll be in no way surprised. This whos business
of trading on Government " subyentons" is unsound
in principle, ard will, nine times out Of ten, prove
disastrous in practice. To manage immense
amounts of capital by means Of huge agencies sub
ject to no vgant supervision, and held in check by
no large personal interests of the Managers is the
true way to accelerate bankruptcy. The natural
tendency TO extravaganza under such management
is always more tnan great enCugh; put "hcu lhal
tendency is stimulated by free resort to the Govern
me mt purse, it becomes irresistible. Our nayiga-
ton interest, our steamboat interest, has, as gem
eral proposition, been prosperous eGough in the
main. Lossss have been suffered, and bank
ruptc:es have taken place, no doubt, in
many Instances. But the general interest
bas flouIished AMI We have grown, una'ded, to be
almost the first maritime people in the world. 1t
is lly when the Government had stepped in with
its prstuities and " subyentions' that any branch
of our maritime service has broken down utterly.
The reason is apparent This stimulus has led to
extravagant undertakings, which have been loosely
and extravaganty managed. All the economies 80
necessary to success, have been overlooked or dis
carded in view Of the boundess resources of the
new backers. We trust our Government will now
have wit enough to see the folly of undertaking to
support steam lines, or any other form of private
business, by applications of money from the public
chest 1t all goes into the hands of sharks and pill
ferers of one kind or another, and has no other
ssue but mischief and Generalization

This long suffering and shamefully- -plundered city
s at length relieved of Devlin, Fernando Woods
Street Commissioner. The Special Committee cf
the Aldermen last night returned the papers in their
bards to the Board, without expressing any further
opinion than that the Board, upon the request of
the Mayor bad full power to remove the Commits
sioDer. No investigation was made in o the Mayors
cbsrges for walt, nomipqly, of time, but really Of
Inclination. Nor was it nt cessary, since the papers
have @ ne to the GraLd Jury, Who will investigate
the matter free from the cOrruptng influence of
parti.an friendship. Upon receiving the Commit
tees report, motion was carried to vacate the
Office of Street Commissioner, aud immediately
thereafter the Mayor sent in the name of Edward
Cooper TO fill ths place After few explanations,
and an evident desire on the part of some to dodge
the question, vote was taken 90 the confirmation
of Mr.. Cooper which resulted unanimously in his
favOr--not one voice being raised against this
most just and necessary taking Off of
Charles Devlin. In order that no further lodges
might annoy or delay the good work, the Mayor
had remained in his office, and as soon as the vote
was announced Mr. Cooper presented bis secur-
A large crowd of Devin's friends retired from the
Hall with elongated visages aud heavy hearts; but
as these we'll fatened tax-eaters departed, every
honest taxpayer breathed more freely. During
the day, Judge Sutherland, 1t the instgation of
Devlin, Issued an order to Mayor Tiemanu to ap-
pear before the Supreme Court to day aud show
cause for refusing possession of the Office to DeSn
IL will not take the Mayor long to answer the
question. We presume Mr.. Cooper is awake TO
the character of some of the parties to the frauds
perpetrated through the Street Department, and
that he will take good care that they do not even
yet steal the books and papers, to which they have
Low not q shadow of claim. They are most un-
scIupulous knaves, and If they ever get their de-
seIts they will do the State some service-at Sing
Sing. 1t is possible that the Grand Jury will give
Mi Devlin the opportunity he pretends to desire
so aldtnty of confronting his accusers, as the
Court of General Session meets regularly on the
first Monday of every month.

This is full'e1hibiton Of our entire trade w'o
the Asi.tic Continent. Out Of an aggregate import

Asia The truth s, that, in the present state OF the
commerce of the world the trade with A'l' Is Ie
duced to a bsgatelle comparatively. So far as Its
profits snd advantages CO. we could lose it and hardly
miss it. By way of contrast with this much Wanted
commerce We will give few other figures. The
trade for the year ending June, 1851 was with the
countries named below as follows:
New-York daily tribune., 1858-04-20

Az for bringing the products of Asia across this
Continent by land to supply the European markets
or even our own, it is all dream 1t is surprising
to find statesmen of intelligence talking about 1t.
Tie use of the Pacific Railroad is to develop and
unite and protect our own territory. 1t is to rest
upon no such myth as the trade with Asia.

In Congress yesterday memorials were presented
TO the SENATE from Newt Orleans and Philadelphia,
in favor of subsidizipg the Collins and other lines Of
ocean steamers. Mr. Trumbull called for the evil
deDce in the case of Messrs Bright and Fitch,
whereupCn those worthless, for the first time, We
believe, expressed wish that the matter might be
settled ss soon as possible Mr.. Houston annOunc-
ing that he was not ready to bring up his project
for Mexican Protectorate, the Deficiency bill was
considered and several amendments TO il proposed.
In the HOUSE, the Washington Police bill was
discussed. Memorials from citizens of Philadel-
pha relative to the establishment of an ocean route
between that city and southampton, were pre-
'eh'ed; aud Mr.. Florence gave notice that he
should introduce bill to establish certain routes,
and regulate the transportation of the mails.

Tbere are certain venomous snakes which have
the faculty, when cut to pieces, OF reunltng Their
discovered bodies, and prOlongng their hideous ex-
istence until the heel of courageous traveller
crushes the poisonous head to atoms, and lets out
at once tie venom and the life One of these po
litical snakes was thus finished last night. Here
tofore cast out, cut in pieces, hedged around with
fire, piled mountain high with loads ofpublc scorn,
he has managed to escape from every assault, and
again and again raise his hundred heads against
whatever Hercules might oppose. Now, 1t would
seem, the work is complete, and he lies prone in
the mire, utterly overthrown, without even wig.
Gle left 10 the remotest extremity of his political
anatomy Fernando Wood driven from official
power by an outraged and indignant people, hs,
been since December last using all his well-known
abilities to get the control of the Tammany St cety,
in which event he would have been the autocrat of
the Democratic party, aud controller of all nomi-
nations fIOm his own fJr Governor down
to Aldermen and Constables. For this he has
worked night and day. in every conceivable manner
except openly, and with every sgent whom he
could csjole OF threaten into bis servce. At Wash
ingtop, at Albany, and at home, his labors have
been unremttiDg. An oath-bound secret society
was formed by bis friends, and the mystery of mid
night conclaves, with grand visbles and grand in-
yisibles was means used to frighten the tmid and
create an idea that his power was invincibe. Last
hight tie battle came of, and Mr. Wood suffered a
defeat perfectly overwhelming At the same hour
his vousble friend and note e.indorser, Charles Dew
lin was removed from Office, and the whole gang of
contractors and camp followers who last year fought
Weeds battle or furnished the silews of war were
driven in disgrace from the public treasury. Un-
less the ex-MayOr possesses the vitality OF toad
imbtdded in a rock, he may be considered finished.
