The OYSTER FEvER-RUsH TO THE EAST RIVER
PLAcER.-Gotham is in the height OF an oyster
fever just now, since the discovery of the new
bed Of that crustaceous bivalve in the bottom
of the Sound and thousands are rushing to the
locality of Eaton's Point, armed with dredges,
with as great Juror as they did in former
times to the California and Australia gold
placers, or more recently to Fraser River and
Pixies Peak, armed with pick and shovel.
selves, cradles slouched hats and portable
cooking stoves. From every dock and pier
adventures are pushing off in every kind of
craft that floats in search of The piscatorial
nuggets; but we are afraid that the placer will
be found as improbable as Pixies Peak. This
oyster bed has been lying there for years-no
one can divine how many; the bvalves are
overgrown, watery and insipid, and can no
more compare in flavor or nutritiousness with
Rockaways, than venerable porker can with
a tenderly raised sucking pig, or swill milk
COW with we'll fed South Down heifer This
fact appears to be well known in the oyster
saloons, where the new discovery is exhibited
as a curiosity merely, hung in baskets at the
doors, but by no means recommended to Gus
toners by conscientious landlords carefully
scrupulous about the stomachs of their patrons,
and by some have been pronounced unfit
to eat.
The oyster like other animal food, and unlike
others of the fish tribe, requires to be carefully
fed and fatted for the market. Nature will sup
ply but art must cultivate oysters, and it is
unreasonable to suppose that those just dis
covered, and SO eagerly sought after, can be in
as good condition as the fish which has been
transplanted and properly fed in the old oyster
beds whose reputation is world-spread
New York has an established character for
delicious bivalves which we fear may be
damaged by the Introduction of the baser arti-
Gle from Eaton's Point, if our oystermen en-
courage the mania now raging. The East river
oyster at best is behind what we may call the
other brands, and if these insipid monsters get
mixed up with them, as they are likely to do,
their character will be gone altogether. We
are tenacious of the reputation Of New York as
an oyster-raising as well as great CONNER
cial place, and we do not want either Governor
Wise's celebrated virginias, or those ill-raised
strangers from the Sound 10 depreciate it.

The IMrUDEAT BEGGARs OF THE REGENCY
We published yesterday circular letter, frank
cd by the Hon Erastus Corning, and signed by
the notorious Peter Cagger, The brother-in-law
of Confidence Cassidy, summoning moneyed de-
moora:s Of the city of New York to subscribe
large sums of money for the benefit of the edi-
tors Of the Atlas and argus. Thus it is that
The Confidence men, who. sold the Wise letter
as Judas Iscariot did his Master, scrape means
together to pay for their bread, meat, whiskey
and champagne. This is the way in which
honest wealthy, respectable democrats are ex-
pected to permit themselves TO be imposed
upon for the benefit of gang of greedy polti-
cal spoismen. We have seen since yesterday
several more of these letters. The scale Of as
sessments in them, which the impudent beggars
Of the Regency are trying to collect is so skill
fully adapted to the supposed gullibility or
means Of their victims that it is evident that
the Albany conspirators keep q black mail
ledger, in which accounts are opened with
everybody who can be made to contribute
from dollar up to thousand In fact the
amounts inserted after the words "You are as
sessed s." are filled in with different ink
and in different handwriting from the rest Of
the circular The penalty for not submitting
to the robbery is loss of favor with the Regency,
and to be denounced with every species of low
vituperation in the columns of the Atlas and
Argus.
And in addition to this burden which the
paying men of the democratic party are ex-
pected to bear, under the plea of printing
campaign papers and political docu-
ments" for the benefit of Cassidy's back
to hand over the money, but also to hold their
tongues about it. The circulars are all marked
" Private" It is exactly the method which
highwaymen employ to escape being denounced
before the authorities and punished. After the
robbed traveller has gone through the "your
money or your life' ordeal he is compelled to
take an oath not to tell who carried off his pro-
perty. Can anything more UNANIMOUSLY corrupt
and scandalous be imagined than this stealthy,
fOot-pad existence Of the Regency swindlers.
They are even worse than the open burglars
and rowdies Of Mozart Hall and Tammany
Hail. who make no secret of their political ras-
cality.
1t is fortunate, indeed, that movement
has commenced among the moneyed and
intelligent men of this city, which will
have for its immediate object the crush
ing out Of all of these odious and mis-
cbiefmaking cliques. The frst step taken
by the hundred gentlemen whose names
have appeared in the HERALD as determined to
put an end to the vile system of misrule ter
rorism and brutality which characterizes the
existing political factions. has been to refnseto
contribute one cent more Of their money Poor
Cassidy will be left to starve or to live on
pension from the Central Railroad. and the
same will be the fate of all of the underlings of
the Regency. Cagger's circular Of September
2S will be the last occasion when the attempt
to black mail the community will yield enough
to pay for the paper it is written upon.

preserving is mostly done by Indian women
who are generally neat and industrious
whereas their husbands are generally lazy
and drunken. One smart squaw, who owns

omassed several thousand dollars through
