It to well known to every man in this commodity,
that the Pnddlert aed Bailers repudiated every
thought of violence; passed resolutions in favo-of
cider; that order was, and is now, their policy;—
-and that no tkxtaii «vre madt. Tbeir meetings
were ail open to the Reporters of tbe citv press, -
and toothers Whose object was simply to listen.
. The Sheriff should have made,himself sequnia
tod with the trae tute of affairs.' .He should have
: esquired whether, or not, tbe employers, atutie,
_ ware not tbe persons who dcaiiediim disturbance
So much for the Post, and In reply, wo venture
to affirm the Sheriff was not deceived, although
we are tod to suppose by tbe coarse of tbe Port,
- that that paper would have been glad If he bod
been. ' Sheriff Curtis knew fall well, by pest ex
pmtonee,llto dangers which always atteod most
demonstrations of this kind, aad although no j>re«
* viont tntentfon on the part of those engaged in tbe
pfren—lnn may have been formed, as we presume
was tbe ease in this instance, still we know that
lhe moto serious riots that have ever taken place,
bate originated without previous arrangement—
having been spontaneously cheated by some dr
enmstonee occurring immediately at the time of
iti taking place. A passing jeer or tsnnt from one
party or tbe other msy cause it, Oao bad man In
a crowd might excite feelings already wrought op
by etreumstances, sunh as at present, exist be*
tween the Puddlers and the mill owners, which
would be attended with most serious consequent
ces.
The oondnet, therefore, of Sheriff Curtis, in pre
paring for any emergency whichmight occur, gaye
evidence of energy and forethought, and evinced
a detemtoatioa that no riot or outbreak sbootd oc
cur during his his careless
ness, cowardice or neglect; and, Instead of cen«
" sure,is deserving of commendation, and tbe hearty
thanks of tbe friends of tow and order, cf those
who feel a proper and deep interest in the fitir
fame of oar eity. A feeling ol security and a con*
fldeoce in the majesty of the tow, and m ihefiJd
ily of Us ministers, not before enjuyed since fbe
late disgraceful riots, his already been the good
result. Tbe Post should also consider, that Used,
borial ooone, not only recently, bnt for months
and yean peat, may also have had its effort in fQ
doeing the Sheriff toexerctoe due caniioa In this
aaoer; as it to very certain that tbe Itflaeneo ol
thil.paper, whether designedly or not, ws preiend
. sot to say, has fendsd to . array one class of the
community against Ibe other, and to pr.-xln m l ea „
- vy, haired tad malice” between the employers
and the employed, and in fact to subvert r*'t erist
ing instltntioDi, without giving us the faintest fes*
tenable tope of any thing betier.
We hope sincerely, that Sheriff Curtis and onr
civil authorities will, notanthstanding the demur*
datipnsof the Pott, continue to pursue the eeme

BEJECTED VALEHTISES'
We copy the following article in reference to
the bending ofValeatines, from a Baltimore paper,
and commendil to tho.attention of our readers, as
it applies equally well here’. We understand that
a large number of tow and insulting, as well is
indecent Valentines, were received, through the
Port Office, addressed to members of our moat re
spectable families. Wo trust that the practice
may either be entirely abandoned or so reformed,
uto prevent, in future, likeihsuUa. It Is at best
a '‘custom which would bo more honored in the
breach, than the observance.”
Talettuos— Tbe great 1 extent to which vulgar
tastes and propensities have come to be indulged
by the sending of Valentines, most needs, if con*
tinned, soon render this otherwise annual
custom obsolete in practice. We understand that
many families in Baltimore, as a means ot protect

mind of their children from the unclean things,

Correspondence of lha Pittsburgh Gazette.
Washixotob, Feb. 16,1850
A rumor has obtained tome: currency which
•Melts that Mr. Clayton; ha*, determined to wuh
dnw from the. Cabinet. If not utterly without
foundation U la so nearly destitute of any, u to be
unworthy of credit. The same rumor stales, that
in case of the retirement ofMr. Clayton, Mr. Crit*
teodea will be a second time invited to enter the
Cabinet. This is a speculation which any body
can make withont fear of losing more than the
investment Aa a pendant to lies report, we have
another, that Mr. Meredith would consent to a
transfer to the Stale Department, and that Mr.
Evana of Maine, might be persnaded to vacate
his sell in the commitsion upon Mexican claims,
in order to take charge of the.finaaccs. Various
are the surmises and guesses as to the causes of
these contemplated change*, but as the changes
themselves will not take place, of course there is
no text whereon to hang a comment. Neveribe"
lest, enough of them will be. made through the
public press, by numerous amateur diplomatists,
who, having lost the more profitable employments
they held under the former administration, now
stand ready to seise every opportunity to show
bow much more they kaow of State alTaita than
Geo. Taylor or any of hla Cabinet do. Foremost
among this respectable and useful class are the
luminaries oftho Washington Union, who will, no
doub', take up the rumor, and make the tuott of
it in their candid and amiable way.
1 do not know but that, in ri taring the other
day to the stite in which several nomination* for
foreign appointments were held iu the Senate, 1
made tome allusion to the current report iba'. Mr.
Schroeder, sou in law to Col. S«aton of the I itclll*
gtneer, Charge to Sweden, was In danger r>T re*
jectiou. I think there is uo marram for such an
allegation. TV aotpiatUon baa not yet been re
ported to the Sonne, from the committee to wh ! ch
it belongs, and is ia the same situation ea tbe mass
otolber appointments that have been commani
ciied to tbe Senate. Among Rome rejections for
cauie, that may be anticipated, U that of Charles
B. Delevan, Commercial Agent at St. Tlioma?,
W. 1., a very lucrative appointment The com*
plaint against Charles is, (bat be Is not quailed
for the place. h|ow, I'rather suspect that a more I
potent cease of diasatiafaction with his nomination
Is, tbat tbe amount of feet accruing at Sr. Thomas !
is foand to be such as to excite the cupidity of
political aspirants of rhthar stronger influence and
higher pretension than Mr. Delevan, wbo ( bow*
ever, ia a very plcwcqt and popular utan. Bat
l fsar that tbero is no help for M*. D , and tbat be
will find that he struck too high in aiming at $5OOO
a year. P .rhapa a fair compromise between him
and hia opponents would be, to send him back to
Piclou, where the pickings do not elect d twelve
or fifteen hundred dollars.
Mr. H ann *B* D f l* l ® Minuter to b&« re
visited the ecenescf his former gloiy. He looks
like one who had gone through the fire ot adver’
aityand the waters of stlltctiou, and ft was this
broken appearance, possibly, that led some Euro*
pean correspondent to suppose that tbe fire water
bad gone too frequently through the honorable
minister, But of that, no more. Mr. Heontgaa
has retired from public service, and deserve* tbal
hit part coarse should be reviewed with csndoi
and justice, and not with the asperity of poliii b
malevolence.
Mr. Webster made a few remarks yesterday
agreeing with Mr. Badger, that the applicant c
California for immediate admission, presented
some difficulties, but none that were insuperable.
An erroneous idea prevails, that he will address
the Senate on Monday, in continuation of his re
marks. This ia net to. Clemens of Alabama,
will make a slashing and tearing harangue against
every thing that is not in and ot the South, fie
will declaim against Northern aggressions upon
the South, and attempts to exclude the chiton*
from the new territories in faco of tho fact that
both the Senators from the new State are southern

The Slesrs|«sTr«st)r usd The CtUoit
-W>. CUftOß*>Str ( Webster.
The f*ct* of whleh 1 bare endeavored to keep
your readers advised, from time to time, are cow
coming oat. There has been no treaty made con
cerning the Nicaragua qaettieo, as has been ao
atootiy asserted by many editors and correspoo
: dents, bat a prtjit naa been adopted, and wdb
aomo very singular and curious results. It wan
probably during the week before list, that Mr.
Clayton presented Mr. Bnlver with the rongb
draft of a treaty tor tbe settlement of most cf the
difference* arising from the ctata of affairs in
Central America. Mr. Bnlwrr no far accepted
this sketch of an arrangement aa to engage to
present it to his government, but, at the same
time, admitting that hia powers were not ample
enough to authorise its unconditional acceptance.
Now it is said and believed that on Sunday last
tbe pr* jit was considered ia special Cabinet meet
ing and was not approved cf, thus affording a
proof that Mr. Clayton's policy was not cordially
supported by hit colleagues. Bat wbea tbe facts
appear in an official statement, l have reason to
believe tl/at it will be discovered that tbe ouly ob
jection to Mr. ClayWs proceeding, if any objec
tion at all was made, was a technical one, and
turned upon tbe diplomatic effect of offering an
amusement of this kind to a minister of a for
eign government, wbo> not having fuQ power*,
could not commit himself or bis government by
entertaining it li will be found, also, if this dis
patch from the Secretary ol State ever eee* the
light, that tbe proposed arrangement was a good
one, end such a one as'wo shall be willing enough
to procure and adhere to ia the end.
But the occurrence has given occasion to the
rumors to which t briefly referred yesterday. Mr.
Clayton Is reported to havo ictimaied s porpw.
of resigning, but there is no probability of it 1
know, from good authority, that Gen. Taylor baa
declared, recently, that he bad nu desire toebaage
any member o! his Cabinet. It is true, however,
that Mr. Webster has bad several interviews
with the President, of late, which have excited
curiosity and comment, because he baa n«t here
tofore been upon those trirp* of cordiality and In
timacy, with the Whig chief magistrate, which
bis distinguished position would entitle him to
maintain. Of course' gorsiplog has been busy
with the fact referred to, and baa taken Mr. Web
ster by the aboutderr, without hia consent, and
deposited him in tbe Cabinet. Mr. Webrler has
far different views.
Very few aeem to look the Imputed diflbol

In the face. The great in*J inty prefer the time

it ia so, is very evident upon looking into four

this to see alt tbe stock ho receives published,

all right to give an exhibit of tbe imports of the

The Boston correspondent of the Ssleo Register
•ays:—
One of the passengers by the recent arrival from
California, is a young man who baa met with a
surprising change of fortune. He. is the son of
one of oar first men. With his unesaal energy
and. intelligence In business affairs, there was
combined a love of pleasure, to which he gave
way ao much, that la spite of their efforts to save
him he sank Into the lowest depths of dissipation,
and at leogtb shipped as a sailor on a voyage to
tbe Pacific. The wish of tats relatives and friends
to forget him, now seemed likely to bo accomplish
ed. Snddenily the Gold Regloo excitement arose,
and with tbe first intelligence from the new city of
San Francisco, came tbe information that the ban
iabed rout was a partner in one of the most wen!-
ty houses there. He bad turned over a new leaf,
to dm an old phrase, and. after making himself a
valuable assistant aa a clerk, hia employer* took
him into partnership. He purchased land enough
in good time to yield him extravagant profits; every
thmg prospered with him, and now be returns to
Boston, 25 years of sge, sod worth $lOO,OOO.
