The New York Postmaster.

\ correspondent of the Philadelphia
Dispatch gives the following account of
the capacity of the late Postmaster in
New York for spending money:
"Fowler's great ambition seemed to be
to enjoy the universal good opinion, to
WELD authority and influence, to live en-
prince, and see his associates made happy
through his instrumentnlity. For several
years his rooms at the New York Hotel
have been the focus of political sentiment,
for they were open to all, and champagne
and cigars were as abundant as at a ban
quet. No matter who you were, if you
dabbled in politics you had only to choose
between the green seal and the gold seal
for beverage, and the Havanas were up-
improbable. His weekly bill at the hotel
must hare been enormous. Then, again,
he was Grand Sacheln at Tammany; and
as he was always lavish in his contribu-
tions, he was at the head, besides being the
soul and two-thirds of the body, of many
other political organizations. In this
manner he squandered money, without the
first idea of its real value; and it does not
demand n long period, with such wide-ga-
ping sources of exodus, for the most ca
pable of resources to exhaust itself.
Fowler's father was president, l think,
of the Highland Bank, or some other i'm.
similarly dashing, gay, and exuberant
gentleman. He became victim of de-
falcation to n heavy amount, and commit
ted suicide in his modification. His son,
our late postmaster, inherited his sire's
love of n brilliant existence, and spent a
patrimony of sixty thousand dollars in his
tiirst dash at social experience He next
spent a hundred thousand for his mother,
when she wisely cut off his supplies. His
third application was through the funds of
the post Office; and l suppose his deficit
there will reach one hundred and eighty
thousand. Besides this, he expended
much money that he was constantly max
ing in successful speculations, and lost
much in host of unfortunate ones, for
he was ever dabbling in enterprises of the
dazzling and desperate kind. He made
fifty thousand dollars in three days, in the
purchase and sale of lots on Staten Island,
but it did not last him over n week; and l
am afraid that, bad he been favored with
n million a month, he could have squunder-
ed it all with the greatest case, elegance,
and nonehaLanee imaginable"

AT o'clock last Tuesday, evening there
took place in New York, (says the En-
press,) grand diamond wedding in the
9Th avenue, the preparations for which
have kept the aristocratic circles of the
Hebrew community in futter of excite
ment for some time past, The fair bride
is the daughter of an eminent broker, is
quite young, and one of the most beauti-
full of "Israel's dark-eyed daughters" and
the fortunate groom is a scion of Phila-
delphia family, honorubly distinguished in
the political history of the country. The
bridal presents are superb. One single
shawl cost one thousand dollars; and the
brides dress, which is a miracle OF point
lace, is said to be worth double the money.
We are happy to learn also from the En-
press that the alliance is one of affection.

THE Buffalo Express, of Saturday last,
has some pen and ink sketches of the
Methodist preachers, now in session there.
Here is one:
The storm-heaten and time-worn veter-
an Methodist, Peter Cartwright, looks like
cast-iron man, fine specimen of that
hardy and fearless class of Methodist
preachers who trod the forests of the west
Christian Church under the oyer-arching
boughs of the aboriginal forests. The old
man feels the effect of time, its traces are
upon him; but he yields to it like an oak,
Scared by the storm, stripped of its foil
age, and falling away desI oiled of its
prime, yet firm ut the roots and sound at
the heart.

inequalities both of taxation and repre-
sentation, under which Western Virginia
is suffering. And, therefore, We say, in
denial of the Union's assertion, there was
no pietOry over any principle for which we
contended in the election. The election
turned upon personal grounds, despite the
strong feeling of the people upon the tax
question. That we are right could be
made manifest any day. Take, for in
stance, one candidate who will say he is
opposed to those inequalities of taxation
and representation against which we have
warred, and set up another in opposition
to him, who will say that be is in favor of
them, and keep the tally of votes, and you
will see a perfect Waterloo victory for
those principles which the onion affects to
think defeated at the late election.

GES. CAss, in his interview with the
japanese ambassadors, made one remark
which gave our Oriental friends better
idea of our institutions, and of the differ
ence between their civilization and ours,
than they could have acquired in months
study. The veteran diplomatist and states
man, after the official reception had con-
cluded, presented them to some of the
ladies who had waited in an adjaining
room. He said, by way of pleasant apol-
ogy for the muslin Eruption, that in this
country " were in the habit of being gov
, erned very much by the women, and that
it was quite useless to prevent them from
having their own way. The japanese
prince bowed decorously, and, in manner
of grave irony, said that he had already
noticed in this respect difference in the
institutions of the two countries. The
way in which he spoke, although perfectly
respectful, left no doubt of what he
considered the superior civilization; but
as one of the chiefs of the embassy
isreported to be rich and unmarried,
it is by no means certain that some
one of the bellies of Washington, or of the
other cities through which they will have
to moke their perilous journey, may not
conclude to afford practical illustration of
the rule ofcrinoline. The Japanese custom,
which requires wife to shave her eyebrows
and blacken her teeth, stands rather in the
way of this enterprise; but the vindication
of the sex may demand the sacrifice.

TnE New York Express has rather queer
notions about geography. 1t says that the
religion aud politics of our party are
bounded north by the Susquehanna and
Ohio. AS the first named stream runs
south, it is not altogether clear how the
Republican religion and politics" are
bounded north by it. Besides, we have
labored under the impression that Repub-
licau principles-and we suppose that they
are to be found with what the Express calls
religion and politics-aro to be found
somewhat further north than the Susqae-
hanna and Ohio.

that the monstrous cannon cast at Fort
Pitt foundry, some months ago, is now
completed. After having been turning
round in its lathe for about three months,
it is now on it's way from the foundry to

about fifteen inches diameter and about
fourteen feet long. 1t is large enough to
hold sixteen bushels, and stout, broad
