SALE OF OFFICES. —The recent discov
ery ot a large defalcation in the office of
Marshal, has led to other discoveries equal
ly astounding. Ii now appears from an
affidavit of Mr. Moore, made in the Court
of Chancery, that immediately upon the
receipt of his appointment, he disposed of
his office for the sum of §16,000 and §175
per month' Mr. Moore, in ju-'ifica ::on of
himself fir this most unjustifiable pre en d
ing alleges that the practice is common,
and that lus two predecessors in like man
tier sold their offices to the Same person
llie Deputy Marshal 1
1 his will doubtless lead to further intes
tigations into '.ho manner in which offices
have been disposed of under the VAN IU
HEN, TYLER and P< LK dynasties.
AN IMPUDENT CLAIM. — Mr. C. Glen
Peeb.es it appears, has been removed from
a clerkship in the War Department. It
seems that the chief clerk intimated to him
the propriety of resigning. He forthwith
addressed a letter to ttie Secretary of War
in which he set forth the novel and extrav
agant claim, that he is entitled to his office
for life. He says : "I claim, legally, to
hold a life estate in my appointment, it be
ing a permanent one, or for so long as the
office exists—removable only for good
cause." And he even goes so far in his
pretensions, as to insist, that "if there
should be no material to employ him upon
then he could not, rightfully, be removed."
On receipt of this letter, the Secretary
of War replied in the following laconic
note.
"Replying to your letter of this d:.t<\ I
have to state, that your service n a clerk
are no longer required in tins Depart* '
ment. Your obedient servant,
G. W. CRAWFORD. Sec'y of War.

The following letter from a friend at
Washington was received too late for last
' week's paper. We shall be pleased to
! hear frotn " Chapultepec" often.
Correspondence of the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, April 25, 1849.
MR. EDITOR —It is so customary these
1 times for papers to have their correspon
; dents in Washington, that I do not per
ceive any valid reason why the organ of
the indomitable Whigs of little Mifflin
should be behind the age, and therefore 1
lake the liberty of giving your readers an
inkling, now and then, of what a looker on
sees and hears from time to time in this
metropolis of politics and power.
The Adiniuistiation is slowly progress
ing in the great work of reform, and, 1
think, is laying a sure foundation for the
time to come. The Cabinet is composed,
as you know, of men of the most undoubt
ed'abilities, and to this add industry, per
severance, and an ardent desire to promote
the best interests of the whole country,
and you have a correct idea of the men
Gen Taylor hau chosen to n-siat him in
the functions of government, for this great
and growing nation. Many politicians
will no doubt find fault with the tardy
movements of the appointing power, hut
they must remember that Rome was not
built in a day, and a greater work than
building Rome is now progressing in the
body politic of this Republic. General
Taylor has pledged himself not to he the
President of a party, and therefore cannot
do as did the elder and younger Hickory,
indiscriminately slaughter all who happen
to differ with him in opinion. We have
evidence en- ugh for us to be convinced
that his friends will in due time have their
claims considered, and that such changes
will he mails as the interests of the country
demand. The hooks are now being post
etl, and you may expect a settlement made
with very many of the hands now employ
ed, about the first of May. I| i* said that
Mr. Clayton, Second Auditor ofthe Trea
sury, who fills the place of one John M.
McCalla, has recommended for removal
several of the gentlemen, who sit in their
offices, smoking segars and reading " Du
mas' last" for three hours a day, and then
dress for a promenade to the Capitol
grounds. This is as it should be. The
business in some of the i ffices is now titter
and four years behind the lime, and men
are obliged to wait until it suits the conve
nience of these worthies, before their ac
counts are even put in way of settlement.
I was told bv a Clerk yesterday, that the
business of his office was twelve years be
hind when his duties commenced, a short
time since. 1s ty torn them out, and ap
point men w ho will discharge their duties
faithfully nod promptly. Mr. Meredith
has issued a circular to the chiefs of the
different Bureaus in his department requir
ing a list of all persons employed therein,
the time of their appointment, what their
duties, who are incompetent, who in ar
rears, A:-., which has created some ex
citement among them, and caused a gen
eral spurring up of the lazy ones. The
Post Office Department is doing the woi k
of reform with neatness and despatch.
Judge Collamer and his efficient aid, Col.
Warren, are winning for themselves golden
opinions in all sections oi the country.
Father Ritchie whines like a whipped
spaniel, hut 'twill not avail the Aug-an
Stable must be cleansed, and in no De
partment is there more necessity* for a
thorough clearing cut than the Post Of
fice. l'here are hut few office seekers
here at present, many having gone home
to hide their time, and patiently await the
moving of the waters. Thousands wi!l
be disappointed in the distiibution of of
fices, but of course will yield to the neces
sity that prevents one office from being
given to a hundred applicants. The Phil
adelphia appointments are not yet made,
and there seems to he quite a competition
for the Collector's office. The applicants
arc all good men, and it is difficult to
make a selection.
A magnificeui sword was presenied to
the President yesterday, by a deputation
from Virginia, on behalf of the Stair.
The ceremonies were very interesting,
and you will see a full account of lire
speeches, Ac. in the papers of to da v.
The levees at the White Mouse are
thronged, and every visiter leaves di light
ed with the reception he receives from the
People's nmn. Mrs. Taylor has been in
delicate health, and the honors of the la
dies' department are done by Mrs. Bliss
in a style at once elegant and prepossessing.
I may give you a more definite idea of
life in Washington at some future time.
Yours, Ac , CIIAFULTETEC.
