FROM WASdI-NGTOS.
From an Occasional; Correspondent.
Washington Ott, March 10, lit 9.
D. N. White, Esq:—
Dear Sir—This place at the present time exhibits
a very busy appearance, but busy in an entirely
different manner from our own smoky city. Here
the bottle artses altogether from (tie nOux of office
. holders, office hunter?, and ftnure ex pedants, peri
ambulating Pennsylvania Avenue from monucg
until midnight. Some endeavoring to aid their
friends to obtain place; pooh making fine Weather
for themselves in future, and all laboring to advance
their own ibterest. present or prospective. Many
dancing attendance in the anti-chambers of the
great, awajung each their ittrn for n three minti(r’«
conference, until patience becomes exhausted at
the delay in transacting pablie business; and yet
allowance being made for the installation of.fi Dew
cabioet, businesscerfainly is dispatched as tpeed ly
as reasonably be expected. The new ibecre-
Lanes all adpear to-be very affable and courteous
to those whose business or pleasure lead* them to
an iaicrvieiw, and there is no doubt the present
cabinet will be found to be one of the ablest that
has ever governed the country. /
It seems that ail appointments are to be left to
the respective departments as in the olden time,
hy which yjou will perceiva President Taylor res
litres himself from a great deal of aoooyonee and
tronb.le, as Well as responsibility. An anecdote is
related, whether true or false, I will not vooch, in
re fereoce to this matter of appointments. It seem*
an applicant for some office from the city of Ro
chester, caned on the General, and obtaining an
audieqee at which several others were
commenced proposing h;s claims, very much to
the General's annoyance, and taking bis petition
from his pocket and boidiug the bottom ofit in his
hand, give it a flirt or two on tho floor, unfolding
its formidable length, and ercltum.ag “there, Gcoe
ersl, you cannot get over that-” He was met with
the reply, “I have laid doyrn a rule, and 1 dutil
care if your petition would reach from here to
Rochester, l will not break it,” This determination
sets at rest the political complexion of appointees,
as the decided Whig character of the Cabiaet will
ensure to us in ail coses of appointment the selrc
lion of whigs for the offices to be tilled. Removal?,
except Or cause, it is said will oot uke place im
mediately, although, as interference m elections is
admitted to be a cause, it will probably not i>«
very long until we have a pretty strong sprinkling
of whig office holders throughout the country—
quite a desirable matter after a proscription of
twenty years by the tocofoco party; and yet tiid
union mokes k great iaxnebiauoQ over the full of
a few political brawlers who were appointed
•for, their subserviency to party, and who were re
moved to give place to letter men. But so it is this
proscription party now rail at proscription, and
denounced the wbigs for dkriag to think of claim
ing their share of the patronage of the Govern
ment. X
Potash Goon roa Gxapx Vntas.—Having, last
year, seen .it stated in a paper, that the ashes of

Cotter pun Jrnte of thr .N. I. Ctfuißurna / Jj/itrtutr
London, Feb. 23, 1849.
The awakened glow of commercial prosperity,
which 1 described )n ray last, has been steadily
maintained,hud with tbe exception of groin all ar
ticles of commerce, have continued to meet with
ri&iug prices. Cotton last week advanced id per
pound and all hough the ardor of buyers has during
the past few days been somewhat moderate, ant
ra&Uonis still universally observable. In what we
call tbe colonial markets, that i# to say, the mar
kets for sugar, coffee, spices dec, the depression
which hod prevailed ever since the breakdown of
thfe great East India and Mauritius booses seem#
at’length to hove been foirly overcome. Business
with tbe coouoent also is returning ia some degree
to*ita old channels. From India, afrertwo years of
almost-hopeless stagnation, we have had threo cm
fubr successive mails with good advices. Bullion,
too. continues to jlow In, and the foods pursue
tbeir upward coarse. Consols, which at the last
dote were 92*; have since been done at 34} and
hive closed to day at 93}. Railway shares, how
ever, have scarcely participated to a proportiooo
b!e extent in the general buoyancy. The distrust
in l teir management has become chronic, and tney
now offer illustration of the inevitable reaction
ol fil .popular impulses, no less impressive th&u
tba: wi.icb m presented by the existing mil iary
dopc'tisms'ofHhe continent, as compared with the
liteiuut of thisltme twelvemonth. Two year# back,
abuse of <U«(y kihd was heaped on thO'e who
doubted ft§t Souk! be advantageous to carry our
railway to three hundred million#
sterling. 3?o<V, 1 believe, it would be impossible
to raise a single pound for any new line, even if it
Were essential to the preservation ol otir whole
commerce.
To mortow is tbe anniversary of tbe deposition
of Lorn* Philippe. Within a fortnight of that
ovi nt it seemed as if the internal relation# of all
Eu'Ope would be Changed, and evejy existing map
rendered worthless. Yet after all thewreck,and dust,
and terror, everything is almost as it was. except
Ci so- lar ns the la'Cst lesson, that there is no jure
feu idiilion set ia Wood, which thi# result, or rather
tint absence of result, is' calculated to tench, may
have sunk into men's minds, to bring forth good
hereafter
The most curious feature of the retrospect
#ncg»t«red nt the pretent moment is the reverse
which ha# taken piece in the anxiety for news
between Eng’nnd. and America Last year you
wete indebted io u« for your chiel excitement.and
and now we hnve do new# to send except a# to
the intense eagerne** with which wo await each
arrival from your side. The California report# are
to us what the European revolutions were Io you.
One set ofevents threaten to niter all the relations
of kingdom#, ihe other seem# to threaten as much
in regard to the relations ol pioperty. It will he
curious if, twelvemonths hence tbe reunion nnd
disappointment in the one case should he eqn;
to that in the other.
At present there is, on the whole, in this coun- I
try. no disposition to underrate the marvel*, j
whieh reach u*. It is argued. reasonably enough, 1
that the fact of the perfect agreement which char
acierwes all the accounts that come from the gold
region is a eoncluaive proof of their truth. Up to
the present wo have not heard of a single
person who has complained that upon sotnng to
work he could not realize ns much as he had ann
rippled. and if disappointment bad occurred, it
seem* prptiv certain that, with the cead'.ness of
human nature In cnlch at a grievance, the cry of
discouragement would hnve Seen ten times a
us lt)ud a* any lhat had been raised of an opposite
kind. We have already heard of dangers from
robbers, of fever nod ague, of h:ch charges tor f>od
or drink or nid of any kind, which went farto re
due? the ultimate value ol a day's earning*,- but
not a murmur n» to thn absolute fact o! great earn
ings being universally practicable It la alao seen
lhatj iflhfc mines did not appoar to be almost nn
limited in extent and nbundaoce, the workers
would as far aa'possible suppress all tidings of
them. On the contrary, each person seems tu
speak of them much tnlhe satie way as Bn Irish
niHd.lo whom lapd i« gold writes home to his rela
tions about farms iu Illinois.
Under these circumstances iti« impossible tor us
at present not to take the sanguine side, and when
inn'ddition we contemplate the restils mat may
attend the introduction of complete mnchirei\ inr
getting at the beds of the various stream.', together
with lha immense number of people that ore now
certain to be upon the spot m the course ol a lew
nioatb*. there i* at all events enough to suggest the
possibility Ibni the supply, even if it be ol snort
m the first instance enormous. In
deed thir-aeems likely to be the peculiar lealure ot
the present eouo-e of events, as compared with
what happened when the discovery n» America

years to produce might row. supposing the nr
'supply toibethe same, bv deveoped in less than
mi
may mouths.
'fllfc immense extent o/' capital 10 this country.
and,(be vast number of individnal* interested in
annuities. and ulh«rr description* of permanent
projj>erty,-will cause it to l»e understood that the
whole question aiuwt excite a far deeper general
feeling than on you side Look first at our
600 miflioui sterling of debt, which U all held at
home; (ten at the immense amc*nt of foreign
loans that is distributed among us; then at the extra
millions raised by railroads on are
not .to demand upon the profits but are to bear a
certain guaranteed rate of interest m perpetuity,
[li**o nl the amount invested to wbat are ea'led
ground renls, almost every 'liouse in l/mdon as
well as ifl all our large towns being chargahle with -
a certain rent for the ground on wtm-n it stands,
ranging if> many ua«e* from -t!0 up to idQO or
m"fe perannum;then ail the money invested in life
anoumes, pnrehased from assurance oificers or
form private ,individuals, and finally at all the mi
nor transactions'of a similar character, and it will
be easy 10-form.a conception of the multitudes
woo are; now calculating either id delight or dis
may, the- possible consequences that may he ap
proaching
As regards itm pcrpular feeling, of course it is one
of flausiac'-on. Numerous ns the holders of annu
ities muy l-e, lhe;publnt, from whose pockets the
proportion comprised m the interest on lh** nation
al debt must conie. are sull more •*. For tht# rea
son the discovery mast prove of far greated value
to England Ihnrt to the United Slates, stoce the
one grnttd thing that was wanting, and which
neither .natural . philosophers, no financiers, nor
moraltstSj ever hoped to discover, was coma means
of lightening the terrible burden of her public lia
bilities. ?

enmstaades connected with our monetary nrrage

turdays a terrible accident occurred at ihe Theatre
Royal, Dunlop Street, Gtasglow. An aiarni of fire
was given at about eight o'clock lu the upper gal

a gns pipe. The scene is thus described by a cor
respondent of ibe London Glolw:
"It was soon apparent to the mauancr that the
fire had hreu occasioned by an explosion of gas,
andheand bis company, used iheir utmost exer
tions to restore order, in which they partially suc
ceeded. Mean while,the alarm had been convey

exertion used to restore' animation, but, unfortu
nately, without success, except in a lew instance*.
Smy one were dead, and three sent to the Royul
Infirmary, two died ujon the way. and one short
ly after. Eleven pprsons, slightly bruised, were n
moved to iheir homes, aud other* are still in the
infirmary m a dangerous state. The sixty one
dead bodies were in the couise ot the evening re
moved to the Clyde street hospital, and there kept
till Sunday morning for identification ‘
About teu o clock the aulhunl e* were at the
