! and Fort Klpley swindles were merely specimen I
bricks. Every step of the administration is
marked by corruption and frond. It buys rotes .
in Congress with offices and contracts, silences j
Qov. Walker by permitting him to ran hU arm !
up to the elbow in the publio crib, and neither
buys, nor sells, nor bargains, without a bribe.
The cormorants of th« party are gorging them* j
selves on the unwonted feast. Buchanan found
$20,000,000 in the Treasury less than a year
ago, and already the Treasury is bankrupt; and
he will leate the nation in debt $100,000,000, at
the conclusion of his term, if a merciful Provi
dence does not sooner pat an end to his anprin-
I clpled career. Read the following, from the
| Washington correspondence of the Philadelphia
Press (democratic authority):
■ Wabhihotos, Feb. 24, 1858.—The town is
filled with rumors from yoar city that a discov
ery had been made that twenty-five thousand
dollars were paid to a gentleman who held a
high position under the late administration,
which position enabled him to exercise a con
trolling influence in securing the purchase of
the property in Second street for a post office.
This matter has assumed such a definito shape
that the swindled stockholders should demand
an investigation by the proper authorities. Tho
property was sold to the United States for two
hundred and fifty thousand dollars, (250,000,)
and we understand that competent judges say
that at no time would that property have brought
a greater amount than one hundred and fifty
thousand dollars ($160,000.)
An ex-member of Congress from your State,
in his sumptuous apartments at one of our lead
ing hotels, is said to be doing a prosperous busi
ness selling his influence for offices, jobs, and
; contracts. The machinery of the steamship Lan-
I caster, now building at the United States navy
1 yard at Philadelphia, is one of his enterprises,
on which, it is said, he is to get a commission
I of five per cent., and that he has already pock
eted a considerable advance.
Merriok & Co., the celebrated engino builders
of your city, mado a mistake in not employing
this successful jobber. Wo understand the con
tracts In Philadelphia for making wagons for
the army, are said to be in danger through the
malign influence of this ex-member, and that
most likely the contracts will foil into tho hands
of new men, who will allow a-handsome consid
eration for the corrupt influence aforesaid.
A farther instance of the corruption of the
administration is found in the fact stated below.
The member alluded lo has, from the first, gone
the whole figure for Lecompton. We copy from
the Perry Freeman. If true, it explains very
satisfactorily the moving causes of tbe-Doctor’s
publio course on Kansas matters:
“Rumor states that Hon. John A. Ahl, M. C.
from this district, has received from the Secre
tary of War the contract to furnish the Utah
army with 1500 mules at $l5O per bead.”

SATURDAY MORNING, FEB. 27, 1858.
Adtirtujdiq. — An article of some length in
Appleton’s New Cyclopedia gives some interest
ing frets relative to the history of the “art” of
advertising. The earliest patrons of the news
papers, as a medium of advertising, were the
booksellers, good lack to them. The earliest
advertisement appeared in 1652 in the ilercu
rius Politicos, and announoed a book eulogizing
Oliver Cromwell Next to the booksellers fol
lowed the public officers, advertising runaways,
etc. The tradesmen who first discovered the
advantage of advertising were the Chinn mer
chants, who announce the “China drink, called
by the Chineans Tcha" (tea,). In 1688, the
London Gazette was the only paper printed in
that city, and became, and still continues to be
the Court journal. lathe reign of Charles 11,
advertisements of theatrical and other public
amusements first appeared. The great plague
ia London brought oat announcements of anti
dotes and remedies. From 1701, advertisements
may be considered as declaring the wants, the
losses, the amusements, the literature, the
money-making eagerness, the fashions, the
foibles, the charities, the occasional eccentrici
ties and the political tendencies of the people.
We find in a number of the Tattler , in 1710, a
review of the current advertisements of the
times. In 1745, the General Adtdertiser was
/ commenced in London,,the first successful at
tempt to depend wholly for support on adver
tisements. Twenty years later, English jour
nalism was fully established In the provinces as
well as in the capital; and, at the commence
ment of the present century, advertising had
Income a system, reflecting the very form and '
pressure of the times.
In speaking of advertising to-day, the Lon- j
don Time* is usually referred to on account of
the great number of ils advertisements. On the
24th May, 1855, it had 2,675 new advertisements.
It is estimated., that its daily readers number
420,000. During the railway mania of 1845, In
the month of October it received from advertise
ments £25,000 sterling. Its regular weekly
receipts from that source are £5,000. Hollo
way pays for advertising his pills on an average,
$160,000 per annum. For recommending the
Oil, $50,000 per annum are expended.
The same sum for advertising the sanative pro
perties of Cod Liver OiL And tc hat it observable,
these’ immense expenditures have amply repaid
the proprietors of the articles advertised, and
wherever the English language is spoken the
-names of these princely advertisers—worthy of
monuments of braßs, are familiar even to the
school-boy.
In this meagre sketch of the great art of ad
vertising, there is a lesson to all merchants who
would grow' rich, which we wiU not press upon
the attention of readers, but leave fortheir care
ful consideration.
A PftOSPXbT TOE mors Territory. —What
with Cuba “and Nicaragua, to say nothing of
Canada and Note Scotia, we were under the im-
pression that the special advocates of the in
crease of the “extension
of the area of freedom/’ as the phrase runs,
would have enough to talk and plot about for
the present, at least. We were mistaken, how
ever. Comonfort, the deposed Mexican Presi
dent, is now in this country, and as may be sup
posed, is not in a very good humor about the
manner of his "taking off.” He, therefore, de
sires aid from our government, and appeals to
the sensibilities of those of our fellow-citizens
who think the present boundaries of the county
decidedly too limited for our national com
fort. In brief, Comonfort wants ‘‘Uncle Bam”
to establish a sort of protectorate over. the
“halls of the Montesumas,” and reinstate
him as the ruling unfortunate
country—introducing, at th’e-Bame time, a "suf
flcent quantity of American- energy, industry
and capital into Mexico.” Of course, there,
are many, who are willing to fall into this ar>-
rangement, not so much'to gratify the exiled
Mexican as tocarry out their own sublime ideas ef
“acqusition” and "extension.*' To support
this position we will be assaiied'with tbe usual
clap-trap "Manifest Destiny” arguments, from
the lips of its partisans. The New York Timts
seizes the bait with avidity, and talks over the
matter like a thorough bred fillibuster. Observe
what the Titan says:
“Mexico requires a guardian. This ia a set
tled fact—not an open question. The only one
—and a rtfost important one—to be considered
isthh: Who shall that
„ _ decided—os soon H
the United States win claim to be
heard. No European power may quietly estab
lish a monarchy on thin Continent. Every sen
timent of Anglo-Saxon progress rises up against
suoh a step. . .
“Comonfort is now here. It is believed that
he desires aid from* the Government or People
of the United States; to be reinstated under
American protection, and to introduce Ameri
can onergy, industry, and capital into Mexico.
Should each an appeal be made, would it be
unheeded? We think not. Mexico is our
nearest neighbor on the South. Her territory,
partly within the tropics, abounds in the choicest
material for commerce, including the precious
metals. Hitherto our citizens have been de
terred from entering MeUco by the notorious
insecurity of life and property. But let a sta
ble government once be established, and the
tide of American progress will set resistlessly
towards the Isthmus of Tehuantepec.”
. That is a.filllbuster pill pretty well coated
with the sugar of sophistry. Mexico la the
••sick man” in this instance who must have it
adminstered to him, just because he is too weak
to reject the nauseous compound.
Lamehtatioh3.— The Washington (Pa.) exam
iner, in more than a column of editorial, bewails
the condition of Democracy in that County as
disclosed by the late Contention there which en
tirely repudiated James Bochaoan in this Le*
compton business. We only make a single ex
v. tract:
“Bat, fellow Democrats of Washington county
‘ we beseech you to consider the attitude you
were placed in before the country by the men
who clandestinely controlled the convention of
Monday the 22d of Feb., 1868. Look at the
proceedings, and there you wffl discover that
THIRTY-NINE Democrat* voted that : James Bu
chanan is not governed by the “strictest integ
rity and loftiest patriotism.” [looted that he
was.] Oh, that vole was one of blighting
shame I It was a vote that caused the Republi
can spectators to rejoice. It was a vote that
might weR sicken the true hearted Democrat.—
And when a motion was made to divide the sec
ond resolution, so as to take a vote on the ad
ministration generally, and another ©nits Kansas
policy, even that was not pennitted,
“Jess so,” and every body who knows Mr.
Grayson, editor of the Examiner, is fnDy con
vinced that but for his mistaken views of duty
as editor of his party organ there, he would be
the londest among the protestants against this
fraud and swindle.* Mr. Grayson is a gentle
man, and, if he would remain so, he may as
well come out from among the ruffians. The
Lecompton party in Washington county isn’t
'worth the ink the Examiner sheds in defending it.
* “Toanv Cbawtish.” —Judge Johnson, at the
democratic antl-Lecompton meeting InColum-,
bos, 0., drew the following sketch of Toady
< , Crawfish. Let us see if we can identify the
. portrait. Said the Judge;
“Toady was an editor, who, when this Le
compton matter »aa firet homed about, pitched
•' into it' with ill hie main, and denounced it as
atroeioua atfd despotic. A cop, of hie paper
’ wUhtheee eentimenta reached the Jndge in
SSnuLMd he wrote him a letter ofapplante
und’congrainlaUon. Ha did notanineeethe
jonrnel ofToadyuntil his returntoOhlorrhen
he happened to pick one upland found Toady
jmt canny. Aftenrarde he met tho ediUir in
person, and asked him why be bad changed bis
mind on - Lecompton. ‘why, the fact is, said
Toady, ‘I dUTpitch into it at first, but some of
my friends think I ougbt to have the Postoffice
'' in our town, and my former views didn’t meet
the'approval of the men who make Ppstmas*
ters.”
Of course, the Judge cannot have alluded to
any editor in Pittsburgh. But be should have
been more explicit.
The Atlantic Monthly for March has just

Household Words for March has also been
received from tbo publisher, John Jansen, New

[Special Correspondence of tbe Pittsburgh Gazette.]
.Harrisburg, Feb. 2od, 1858.
Editor Gazette: On yesterday we had the first
expression of the democracy of .the legislature
upon the Lecompton swindle. It wasfound that
a ndmber of those who had been strongLecomp
ton men a week or two ago in the house were
growing weak in the knees. Besides, if the
legislature faltered and refused in any way to
act anterior to the meeting of the 4th of March
convention, it might haTe a most injurious
effect upon the minds of delegates coming hither
from the distant rural districts. The federal
government bos been urging most imperiously
upon its friends to take some action upon this
question. And they could not have appealed to
'a man more likely to Berve their purposes than
the democratic leader of the Senate.
Backalew is very poor, in bad health, and anx
ious to go to a milder climate to reside. He
therefore seeks anxiously for on appointment
to one of the South American republics as min
ister resident. He has therefore, in this crisis
of the Administration, come to its relief, and
most opportunely. This report will reassure to
some extent, the wavering Northern men at
Washington. It will tend to still dissensions at
the convention next week, and will greatly
strengthen the moral prettige which the sup
port of his own state speaking through its, con
stituted authorities must impart to Mr. Bu
chanan.

Gentlemen The elegant “testimonial from
the congregation of the Third Presbyterian
Church of Pittsburgh,” which you have so hand
somely presented to me this day, deeply affects
my heart
The services which they aro pleased to speak
of os “kind and efficient,” had their own re
ward in the distinguished appreciation of a
pious, cordial and intelligent people. These
valuable gifts— free will offerings of
my hearers—will ssrVe os a pleasant reminder
of sacred and happy times in your sanctuary,
and they will be enhanced to me and to my
family by the consideration that they express
not only your personal regard for myself, but
also your delight in the glorious Gospel of our
Blessed Lord. This is my “ever enduring
memorial.” , . .
May these generous impulses be rewarded by
the Divine blessing on your new pastoral rela]
lions, and on all your families, always. And
may you, gentlemen, who have so kindly
furthered this oDject, receive the richest of all
gifts from the Father of all Metcios.
