Another victim OF the rebel archives is Mr.. j.
II. Guthrie, the democratic candidate for m 4yor
OF Pittsburg, who was defeated at the election
yesterday. The publication WAS made in that
city on Monday afternoon of an extract from
letter OF George y. Sanders, setting forth that
Mr. Guthrie was present at and participated in
The proceedings Of a meeting Of leading seces-
s.onists- including Davis, BTeckiuridge and
Floyd, held At a hotel in this city in 1851. This
publication seems TO have had an effect in set

The memOriAlists have made the charge
against the Board OF Public Works that by
over measurements they had caused the gov
eTnmeut 10 pay more than its proportion for
improvements. They not only made the charge
IN their memorial 20 Congress, but they have
absolutely gene to the expense Of advertising it
IN two Of the New York papers at considerable
expense. As the Board will be able to prove
there Is no truth to the charge, but il is a
curious illustration Of the motives Of the memo
alists that they are willing to spend money in
making Congress believe that the government
has paid more than its share for District i'm
Iroyements.
