BILE to get the whole batch from the outside, and
the reduction Of salaries in their several offices is
the ruse adopted to accomplish the object II such
is the fact, and the scheme proves successful there
will be engendered a spirit Of diSSenSion which
must seriously affect our territorial interest; and
then. too, judging by those who have been sent
out as office holders, and those who may follow
to till vacancies the comparison as between
Denny and Cnshman, and such like, will be fear.
fully significant. Our delegate, Col. Wallace,
could hardly have given his sanction to the mea-
sure II which we speak. Ifhe did, he committed
a palpable error. II he opposed it and failed, he
must have had hut sorry influence as repre-
sentative. We would not lie understood as find
ing fault with the pay allowed our judges, nur
Surveyor General or the Governor; il is little
enough, less for judges than il should he, hut
we do saw that cutting down the pay Of Register
and Receiver to $500 is an Ou rage The amount
will not pay hoard and fuel The salary should
not be less than Ss,OJO.

Enund impossible to do al the work originally
contemplated, owing to an urgent rrQueSt from
Collector Smith Ia return with her to Port An.

two weeks. For tho short time in which She
was laid up. however, great deal If work was
accomplished, which is due solely to the zeal and
