OFFICE-SEEKERS AND APPOINTMENTS.
Washington, March 12.
The office-seekers are grumbling loudly at
the deliberate manner in which their claims are
considered. So far as is mown nothing has
vet been determined on, and all reports to the
contrary are mere guesswork, or feelers. The
president said to day that it would be impossi
|,]t.to take up the New York appointments even
for consideration before the middle of next
week. .
The Tehuantepec question will come up eith
er on Tuesday or Wednesday. A great many
w hi* Senators have left, and it is feared a quo
rum°cannotbe kept after next week.
It is understood that the able Commissioner
o ftho Land Office—John Wilson—will remain
in office for the present at least. There is a
strong feeling in favor of retaining him altogeth
er, as he never was a politician.
Major [Jobbie can get the First Assistant Post
master Generalship ; but his friends, believing
that the duty is too arduous, wish him to be
“-4Sixth Auditor.
” The following candidates are favorably spoken
of; some of them may be considered as about
certain :
Mrj Wheeler, of North Carolina, for Sixth Au
ditor.
Hon. E. B. Dean, of Wisconsin, Second-As
sistant Postmaster General.
H. H. Heath, of Washington, Treasurer of
the United States.
Hon. A. W. Buel. of Michigan, Charge to Ber
lin
A rumor that parties arrived yesterday and
deposited $53,000 with Corcoran & Riggs, to
further the interests of a certain gentleman tor
the New York Custom House, has caused con
siderable commotion in the New York delega
tion “f office seekeis.
Ex President Fillmore will not leave Wash

indictments, for 14 years, the latter for nine
teen years. It was thought by our informant
that Roberts would be sentenced on another
indictment 7 years more, making in all 2i
years. The trial of the others concerned, was
proceeding when our informant left.— Milledge*

Proposed New Couvtv,—We learn that quite
a strong feeling exists among the citizens of
the 3d 7th and 12 h districts of Baker, and por
tions of the 4th, 6ih and i3th ot Early in avor
of forming anew county. A meeting has been
called tMilforlon the 3d Saturday in this
month to ake the subject into consideration,
when an opportunity will be affordeJ for all in
terested to give their views on the subject.
We have heard Spring Creek suggest'd as
the Western boundary ot the proposed co inty,
although we presume this question, as well as
others that may arise, will be determined by
the wishes of those residing n ar the proposed
boundary. <) r western friends re comrnenc
ing in season, and we have reason to believe
\iil moke strenuous exertions to carry their
project through the next Legislature.— Albany

“dow is it,” said a gentleman to Sheridan,
“that your name has not an O to it ; 3’our fam

Baltimore, March 14.—The Bridge at
Cohoes, near Albany, and the Saratoga Railroad
Bridge, have both been burnt by incendiaries.
“Sir,” said a pompous personage, who under
took to bully an editor, “do you know that I
take your paper ?” ‘l’ve no doubt you and > take

my honest subscribers have been complaini lg
lately about their papers being missingin the

Serious Mortality - . —Samuel H. Porter, esq.,
of Wilmington, N. C„ has lost in the course of
a few weeks, ten valuable young slaves at Point
w Peter, by a disease resembling pneumonia. They
were taken sick.iu suceessioti&died after a brief j
illness. The negroes were hearty and healthy
up to the contracting of the disease which hur
ried them off. ISear Weldon, Mrs. A. Powell,
her son-in law, Mr. Walker, and a Mr. Walker,
all residing in the same house, all died within I
two days of each other, of the same disease.
Death of Dr. A. B. Arnold.— We learn,
with much regret, that this distinguished and
useful physician, died suddenly at his residence
in Lowndesville, on last Thursday evening. But
a short time before his death, we are informed,
he was sitting upin company with several young
friends, who went for the purpose of serenading
him, but were invited into the house tint he
might hear the music more distinctly. A few
moments after they withdrew, he retired to bed
he breathed hi3 last. When found by
his wife, who followed him a short time after he
retired, he was struggling in the agonies of
death, The friends who left him had proceeded
to a neighboring house, and ere the performance
of the second piece they were playing, had end
ed, the intelligence of his death was communi
cated to them. “Veril v, in the midst of life we
are in death.” —Anderson Gazette.
