WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP.

TIE MAYoR's VEro.-It is quite time that
the taxpayers of Washington should realize
the real question in issue between the mayor
and the Councils, resulting in the recent 'e'o
of the Seventh Ward market-house bill and the
bill for some additions to the conveniences OF
the Asylum. -.
That question is-Shall the Mayor himself
select three commissioners who shall award
not only the contracts in question, but those for
the Water Works, and the subsequent sewerage
contracts to be rendered necessary by the OPP
GRAFTON of the water-works here-or, Shall that
responsibility be entrusted to committee of
each branch Of the Councils and the Mayor,
acting conjointiy?n er
The Corporation contracts for the Water
Works will amount to an aggregate of perhaps
SIS 900, while those for the addition swerage
within the limits Of the Corporation Of Wash
ington to be rendered necessary, from first to
last, by the introduction Of the Potomac water
in our midst, may amount to an aggregate Of a
million of dollars. Thus, the contest is-Shal
the disbursement of this money-the right to
sly who are entitled to receive it as the loves
bidders-be vested in three persons to be named
by the Mayor, or shall it be requisite, not only
that committee of each board and the Mayor
shall conformity award the contracts, but that
ere such awards shall be final, they shall be con-
| irmed by the Corporation. That is, by formal
votes of the two boards and the Mayors ap-
| prevail.
We presume that no man who pays dollar
| of taxes to the Corporation Of Washington, who
! may not be an expcctant of some special favor
| in the awards to be made, or who may not hope
to share in the very possible toll or bonus upon
| some of these contracts that might be awarded
and collected if the strongest guards be not
thrown around the manner Of awarding them,
will hesitate for an instant in determining which
plan he prefers. According to the manner Of
making the contracts which the Mayor prefers,
the virtual robbery Of the city treasury in the
awards will only require collision on the pal
of any three persons he may select to make
| them-the awards.
According to the plan of the Councils, to pee
ulate in them will require not only col.u ion 4
that end, first between the Mayor himse { and
the proposed committee of each Board, but ul
timately between the Mayor himself and ma
jority of each Board. According to the Mayor
plan, it will be quite feasible to transfer some
ten per centum Of the nominal payments OF
account of the contracts into the pockets of on,
two, three, or four persons experienced in o.
otherwise competent to such jobbing Accord
ing to the plan of the Councils it will be abso
lutely impossible to defraud the city treasur,
of sixpence in making the awards. 1t will
be we'll, indeed, for the taxpayers of tho Fed
eral metropolis to fix their attention upon thi
| matter

POLITICAL STANDARDIZATION of late
there has been little space in the Star for the
discussion of that interminable theme-poli-
tics-Our eyes have been open to all in that
connection going on around US. Usually quick
to discover and to chronicle everything political
of interest transporting here, We confess not to
have noticed the late " negotiations alleged
to have taken place in this city between Mr.
Douglas and a number of his supporters from
the Northwest, and various Southern leaders
rumored to have repaired to Washington to
that end. But the truth is, no such assemblage
of Southern and Northwestern Democratic poll
ticians has occurred here; nor have any such
negotiations taken place. We dislike to spoil a
pretty story, more especially when got up by
the newspaper men by way of writing some
thing to interest the public in newspapers
dry time; but the truth must be told. Thus,
we have to say that in the course of the last
month there has not been prominent North
western or Southern Democratic politician in
Washington not coming on legitimate business
with the Government, or in the usual course of
the seasons travel; this being the season at
which many Southern gentlemen bring their
families north.
As for the story about negotiations between
them and Mr.. Douglas and his friends; it is all
bosch No Southern Democratic public man
of any pretension to influence throughout the
South would venture to assume the RESPONSE
bility Of acting for the South in such matter,
because knowing that his interference would
be instantly and Indignantly repudiated That
they are one and all sOlicitous for the return of
Senator Douglas and his friends to their former
connection with the Democratic party there is
no doubt; but not man of them has dreamed
of arranging the terms of that reunion in ad
! vance of the meeting of the Charleston Con-
yention, the only power recognized by the
Democracy of the South as being competent
to settle great points of party faith or party
action. We are not without hope that that
body will be able TO adopt resolutions plat
form-that may prove acceptable to the Demo-
cratic party throughout the Union as that was
constituted when electing James Buchanan.
with the exception Of the disappointed office
seekers, of course. Yet we are very sure TINT
no formal negotiations to that end, as repre-
sented, have been going on here. All the in
tercourse between Mr.. Douglas and his North
western friends who happened to have been in
Washington of late, and prominent Southern
Democratic politicians also here has been
purely social; though we trust its influence
may tend towards the eventual political re-
union Of the former with the latter, for the
sake OF Democratic party ascendancy.

my one considering the advantages OF Iron
\ over Rope as material for binding cotton bales
ri will be surprised that it has not been adopted
long snee In its security against lire there is an
overwhelming reason for its adoption.
The Presses in the Seaport Cities have been the
mtin caaseoi its not being generally adopted; but,
nov that objection is removed generally, and the
Orleans Press, the largest in n. o. give 1t the pre-
ference over rope. TIE Fassmmn Iron Hoop and
Tie is the Improvements OF one of the propfietors,
and is adopted from The fact, that it is found aitcr
long experiment, to combine the greatest merits in
simplicity and facility OF application Of any one
yet made. Its so preparedas to require no change
for recon,pressing. Thus obvia'ing the only re-
mining difficulty at the sea board cities.
The hoops are sent OF any length from eight to
ten feet and full guarantee given thatneither the
Ties nor Hoops shall break And further, that all
cotton bound in them shall be received on the same
terms, at the Orleans Press as rope bound cotton.
The weight per bale is about the same as Rope,
OF one pound more or less.
To show the opinion Ship Masters have oft, We
give the following, among numerous commenda-
sons we have:
The undersigned masters Of vessels having had
