The Hon. ORsAMrs BENAJAH MaTrEsoS.-From
the testimony of this celebrated lobby operator
before the Tariff Investigating Committee of
Congress, il seems that he positively denies the
statement of Mr.. Stone about the s25, 900 to be
used among the members in passing the bill Of
1857. lie (Matteson) had never thought ofsuch
a thing; but he had said that il would take a
good lot of money for outside purposes. As for
himself, he never got dollar Of that mysterious
eigbty.seven thousand. In fact be appears to
be as innocent in the matter as Greeley. The
second expulsion therefore, which has been
hanging for sometime over the head of poor
Matteson, may possibly be withdrawn. The
magnanimity Of Mr.. Keitt, and the constitu-
tional scruples Of other members Of the House.
indicate as much But as Mr.. Matteson has
testified to the utility of large corruption sub
sides TO the outsiders at Washington, why not
call up one or two of these outsiders be-
fore the committee? Perhaps they may be
able to open the mouth Of Mr.. wolcott Who
knows?

THE REWARD or MERrT-The defeat of the
Army bill in the Senate may secure TO that
worthy polygamic pioneer, Brother Brigham
Young, an immunity in his licentious practices
for some time to come. If Brigham sees fl to
fight, the gallant corps dormts under Col.
Johnston can do little or nothing without rein
forcements. No military man, with the border
experience of the officer in command of this
army, would advance into those dangerous
canons, which afford defence for the capital
of the Latter Day Saints, without strong
reserve to fall back upon. The admin
istratiou asked for the material for
such a reserve, and more than double
the force requested could have been
raised in fortnight but the niger drivers of
the South Joined with the niger worshippers Of
the North to defeat the BILL and thus aid and
assist the rebellious Prophet of Utah. We pre-
sumo by their action upon this bill, that il was
their intention to join hands with Brigham, and
to extend bis peculiar domestic institutions over
The country.

THE SCIENTIFIC PATENT LOBBY IN Full BLAST
A MAGNIFICENT HAUL OF PATENT JoBs.--One of
our Washington CORRESPONDENTS saws that

our ashlngton correspondents says that
II alleged that the Appeal Board established by
the Commits oner OF Patents, but not yet sanctioned by
Congress, have granted 10 Mum Co. OF the Scientific
american some sixty patents upon applications rejected
by Judge Mason many OF which believed TO be direct
many millions OF dollars II said they have done
the influence OF that journal which has patent
agency connected with IT, in favor OF this innovation upon
the established organization OF the Patent Office
Can this be true ? If it be true, and the state
ment has all the elements of consistency and
FEASIBILITY about it, then we must say that the
scientific firm of the Scientific american have been
prosecuting their scientific researches to some
purpose. A batch of "sixiy patents" good,
bad or Indifferent, covering many millions of
dollars" will embrace a lobby fund and lobby
combination which, If employed according to
scientific principles, must prove to the men of
science involved In the movement a. rich a.
California gold mine. The only serious hitch
in this scientific enterprise lies in the fact that
this new Appeal Board" has not yet been con-
firrned by Congress. Let Us know something
more Of this alleged scientific consolidation Of
these sixty patents" Perhaps it may open up
new placer for Matteson, Simonton, wolcott,
and the whole ships crew of the Washington
lobby. "Sixty patents and many millions Of
dollars" Only think Of this

THE New YORK Custom House SPouS JOB
BEEs AT WAsHNGroN.-It appears that regu-
lar fight has been going on for the last week or
two between Collector Schell and several mem
bers of the New York city Congressional dele
cation on the subject of the clerkships of our
Custom House. The regular" Tammany or
ganization, as II calls itself, insists upon the
monopoly of these spoils to the exclusion of all
the other factions, and alleges that Collector
and replaced them by fishy democrats outside Of
the regular order. Consequently, as it APP
pears, four or five Of our city members of Con-
gress waited upon Mr.. Cobb last Saturday and
demanded that Mr.. Schell should be compelled
to set this business right. Mr.. Cobb promised a
reference to the President, and there the matter
at present stands
In the year of grace 1853, under the benign
spoils dispensation of poor Pierce, the democra-
tic party of this State was split into two nearly
equal factions upon their quarrel over the
spoils OF this Custom House. An iron wedge
driven into the centre of a chesuut log could
not split it more nearly into two equal parts
split the Empire State democracy. Nor
has any plaster, or splicing. or bandagng
from that day to this sufliced to bind these frag-
ments of the party together again. True, there
was a very powerful reunion in this city in be-
half of the election Of Mr.. Buchanan: but it
was short lived and delusive. With the old trou-
bic Of dividing the spoils, the old sore is not
only re opened again. but, instead of two wrang-
ling factions, we have three or four, inside and
outside OF Tammany. Nor have we any doubt,
however fairly the spoils may be divided. that
the result will be confusion worse confounded
thanever among the little cliques and squads
contending for the lions share In this view
Of the case the best course on the part of the
administration will be to send all these Custom
House spoils iobbers about their business until
after the settlement Of the Lecompton question.
When we have such slippery customers as our
Tammany spoils factions to deal with we must
hold them to the discharge Of their duty in adj
vance That is all.
