OFFICE-SEEKERS AT WASHINGTON.
Letter" from ..Wnshinelnii represent the oily as j
perfectly besieged by office-seekers. Thus it is |
at the dawn of every administration. Thousands
and thousands of anxious expectants flock to Wash
ington, to offer their valuable services to •'tile pow-j
ers that be,” and most of them, after weeks of j
anxiety, are compelled to return to their homes,
con- iderahlo poorer than they had been before, A |
letter before ns mentions the names of a great
number of Pennsylvanians w.Jtn are now at Wash
ington begging for office. Nearly all of them are |
men who have held office under the State or Na
lional CJovernmenis before—ex-Governors, ex
mem here of Congress, ex-Sonotore, ex-Canal Com
missioners, ex-members of Ihe Stale Legislature,
and ex-office holders of various grades. These ;
are ihe men. generally speaking, who annoy, by
their presence, a newly inaugurated President. —
Not one in ten of them are entitled to office, but
yet it is n fact they are the men who generally
carry off the spoils. The modest, unassuming
worthy man, is generally forgotten, and the loaves
and fi-dies are appropriated in old party hacks who
make office seeking their business, and gamble in
politics. Men of wealth, too, generally succeed

over men of poverty. To be poor, it must

iklin Pierce ii» the fourteenth Prcsidert. His
Thirty-Eight City Fathers sent to Prison 1
A letter to the P«6/ic Ledger, dated New York,
March 13, says: ( |
A scene was presented in one of oor judicial tn
bunals, the Superior Court this morning, winch |
eternally seals the degradation of that most cor
rupt of all corrupt bodies, the New Yorlt Common
Council. The Judges on the bench presiding on .
the occasion were Duer and Emmet. All the Al
i dennen Indicted for violating the injunction of the
Court in the-maller of the Broadway railroad wore
brought up for sentence, at 11 o’clock. j here
they stood—-the city fathers—before the scornful
gnze of a crowded Court room, and among many
of the spectators a good many who had personally
fluttered from their official misconduct. Alderman
ytorievant, steeped deeper in guilt than the rest,
was sentenced to the city prison fof fifteen days,
and to pay a fine of $350; the others (thirty six in
number) to be imprisoned for a term of ten days,
and to pay Respectively e fine of $350 each. There
were but two Aldermen out of the whole forty who
obeyed the injunction, and those, of course, go
clear. As souq as the sentence was declared,
there was a demonstration ol applause on the part
of the spectators, but it was promptly repressed
by the Court. Shame and humiliation, it would
seem, were the only sentiments befitting the occa
sion. An appeal was taken by the counsel for
annie nf the convicted, but it is the general opinion
■if dm bar that it will go for nothing. Their hon
ors, therefore, had better got into Black Malta
