The most lucrative of.lce of the United States Government is that of Collector of the Port of New York. The lawful salary is not very large; but, in one way or another, the collector can and does make a vast amount of money. One collector, who happened to be honest to fastidiousness, committed suicide, and the presumption is that the abuses and the frauds of the office, which he was linable to prevent, weighed upon his conscienceso oppressively that he sought relief in death. What would Diogenes riot have given for the discovery of such a man as Preston King, in his lantern search among mankind? The leakings or stealings of the New 'York Custom House are roundly esti mated at three millions of dollars a quarter, or twelve millions a year. This is enough to pay the interest on itWo hundred millions of the national debt, and this is the tax that the people of the 'United states in general pay for the support - of thieves and scoundrels connected With the New York Custom Ifoinie. The official seat of the Collec torship is vacant, 'but the fraud and _spoliation go on still, for the benefit of those who connive at fraudulent in voicing, or accept bribes from rich importers, or cheat the national treasury in other ways. There is a fierce struggle among the politicians to secure the rich office, but the President hesitates about bestowing it. There have been intima tions that some votes in Congress have been inspired by a hope of obtaining the collectorship, either for the voter him self, or for his especial favorite, who will dispense its patronage and emoluments among his various friends. There are even intimations that the President is holding the office over, until he can find the strongest man, who will bind him self to his policy for the sake of obtain ing it; but this we do not believe. Andrew Johnson is entirely above this sort of thing. It would be a good thing for the coun try if the collectorship of the port of " New York were never filled, and if the office were abolished. Our present sys tem is totally inadequate to its honest administration, and we can as little af ford to have .honest men driven to sui cide by the imperfections of our laws, , as.to have dishonest men making for tunes at a cost to the people of twelve Millions a year. We believe that there is a sincere de- Aire, on the part of the President and other members of the Government, in cluding many Congressmen, to have some new system devised for the collec tion of customs duties in New York, which • shall be honest and fair. But there is a vast and overpowering body in the New York mercantile community, which profits by the present system and uses its enormous influence to maintain and perpetuate it. To combatand coun teract this, there is need of a general combination among the influential men of all the other parts of the country. New York foreign commerce thrives on its custom house frauds, at the expense of the commerce of all the other cities. It is a notorious fact that, with precisely the same laws, goods can be imported cheaper at New York than they can at Philadelphia, simply because there is honesty in the Philadelphia custom-house, and fraudu lent invoices and other eheatery are less likely to escape detection. Boston and Baltimore suffer in a similar way, and in a t proportionate degree every other port that has any foreign commerce suf fers. We might build up a rich foreign trade, if we could fill our custom-house with thieves, and advertise to the world that the revenue laws would be habitu ally violated for the benefit of importers, as they notoriously are in New York. It is said that various schemes have been considered by the Government and the committees in Congress for collect ing duties atNewYork. But it is also said that nothing practicable can be de termined upon. This is puerile and false. A strong hand and an honest heart can effect such a reform.. All that is needed is the courage to defy and overturn.the insolent power which has been tolerated and pampered for partisan purposes, through a long series of administrations. The President can not always give attention to the details of the administration of the various of fices he has to bestow. But the mon strous abuses of the New York custom house must now be known to him,. and be can depute trustworthy men, not New Yorkers, but representatives of the whole tax-paying community, who can investigate the system; and, resisting all attempts at corruption, can devise a new one forLcollecting duties at our prin cipal sea-port. We trust that - Congress will bring the matter before him, and that he will act upon it promptly and energetically. THE CLAES OF PENNSYLVANIA. Governor Curtin, always faithful to the interests of his State, has at last suc ceeded in having the bill passed through both houses of Congress to indemnify Pennsylvania for her expenses in rais ing men to resist the rebel invasion. The troops of the other States were Paid promptly by the National - Government; but Pennsylvania had to raise money for the payment of her own, trusting to Congress to indemnify her in the Tuttire. In spite of the justice of her claim, it was postponed, through the jealous influ ence of members from other States; and it required the determined perseveranCe of the Governor and his personal pres ence at Washington to overcome the op position. He has finally triumphed, and established a new claim upon the gratitude of the people of Pennsylvania. In the House of Representativ, Hon. Leonard Myers, and other of our excel lent members, also labored zealously and efficiently in h.etkAlf of the bill. THE AMERICANS IN Romm—We have re ceived a detailed report of the grand cele bration of WashingtOn's Birthday,at Rome, by the American residents and visitors, which we shall lay before our readers to morrow, including the speeches of 11.
