FROM ALBANY.

Prom Our Own Correspondent
ALBANY, Jan. 6, 1853.
There is but one opinion here as to the meannesS
of The Express in abusing the confidence of the
Governor; its American friends have no apology
to offer. Some years ago The Herald procured
from Albany copy of John c. Wright's Annual
Report, as Controller, and published it in advance
of the meeting Of the Legislature. Since that day
the Annual Reports of the Controller have not been
intrusted to any one until laid upon the table OF
Members.
The Governor had no interest in withholding the
message from the public to await the organization
of the Assembly. Personally, the premature pub
LEGATION can do him no harm. The dishOnor OF Il
breach of confidence like this lies wholly with The
Express. The consequences, however will fall
upon the newspapers in the State, for no Governor
can, hereafter, expose himself to similar swlndle.
The House, to-day, balotted four times, with the
same result as yesterday, and then adjourned to to-
morrow, at II o'clock.
The small squad of Americans hold on for higher
bids. Their object is the cerkship which gives
opportunity for the sealngs. Ii is supposed that
clerk of even moderate desires can make two or
three thousand dollars over and above the salary.
Hence this opposition and delay. Mr.. Richardson
is all Englishman, and Mr. Reilly is an Irishmsn
by parentage, aud they cannot be supported with
The control Of the House is not worth the price
that the Americans ask. The American party Is
not strong enough, and numerous enough to be
worth buying. Neither the Democrats, or Repuo'
leans can gain anything by treating with them on
All equality. In truth, such a negotiation would be
an injury.
The Americans have made political blunder.
James Kidd, Stephen Summons, A. III. Calhoun
and others, in this city, who have advised the
four or five men in the Assembly elected BY Repuo-
lican ard American votes to refuse to act with the
Republicans, have other objects in view beside the
interests of the public or the party. These leaders
have hatreds and reyenges to crafty and use THIS
small knot of men as their tools The tools VIII DE-
thrown aside after they are too much worn our In
reputation TO be of further use.
The only honorable, or decent course. for mem
beers holding their seats 10y virtue Of Republican
votes is either to vote the Republican nominees or
absent themselves fr, m the House and thus permit
an organization which they may not wish to Vole
for.
The Democrats and Republicans who know what
are the responsibilities to be assumed by the part!
that has the formation Of the Committees and the
shaping # the legislation, are not anxious to sue
coed If the Americans would JON the Democrats
in body the Republicans would fling up their na's
in accamation. II would be relief from any iuf
Their trouble for this session
