Llteratianallees Roorback has sprung to life again In My th , and is busy in circulating •itory- of plagiarism against 111; Bancroft, the eminent historian. He obtained, it is said, from Mr gverett, American Minister in Lon. don, a rare MS. which he incorplireted, without credits into a volume of his forthcoming history. Subisetpteet ly, he ascertained that a duplicate of MS, was eiTeresi for sale, and, not being able to procure the copy for love or money, he went to the publishing office and melted down the stereotype plates of his history' ' in ordet to - prevent his plagiarism from becoming knotors. We will venture to say that there Is not a word of truth in this story, but that it is one of those gross pastime slanders that every man is subject to who becomes candidate for the Baines of the people, or avows his political preferences. Mr. Bancroft been a high lim, rary character, founded upon real literary attainmeate, and has no need to resort to pfiferingi from other au. thorn to sustain his reputation. The idea of a dirysti. cale of a rare Ms. being hawked about the streets for sale, and he not able to get it "for love or m‘'" is a little too ridiculous, independent of the absurdity of an author foisting upon the public as his own what another person had communicated to him, and who must necessarily be aware of the imposition. Mr. Bancroft was a candidate fora high office in Massa. cbusetts, hence the rancor with which the partisan journals pursue him. They attacked Mr Cooper in this same unjustifiable ma nner, some Four years ego, and have continued the persecution till the present day; though in the latter gentleman they met an adverier who was not so easily crushed as they Imaginal, anti who has successfully foiled the malice aids foes.

They show a spirit that wild beasts, in ordinary feeling, would be ashamed THE SMITHSONIAN BEQUEST. . - We trust that the present Session of Congress not he permitted to pass by, without some definite sc. • tion on the part of the tepresentativea of the.people, in relation to the Smithsonian Bequest. We have ant- Ad to this subject on more than one occasion already; but it is a topic that must be constantly urged, or at least mentioned at every opportune mtnnent, in ordes to secure for it, any thing like due attention. Thisbe. quest. and proper legislation with regard to it. may be said to involve the honor of the country. It is indeed disgraceful to us as a people, that we have so long per. mined the noble sum which was bequeathed to us by at a liberal-minded foteigner, and with a 'most beeevolen;f, :object, to remain so idle and unappropriated. We see it stated that the whole fund amounts at the present time, to ;690.000. Why. in the name of all that is honest and upright, not refer the matter to a Committee with the object of securing from enlightened and corn. prehensive minds, some judicious and available plan, and of thus determining at once, as to the mode of car rying out the phylanthropic views of the testator.— Six years have gone by, since the money was obtained •• in England. Mr Rush, the gentleman who was char.' ged with the duty of receiving it. has made several el oquent appeals upon the subject; but thus far in vain.-- The benevolent objects intended, have been delayed and frustrated for a time, while the character of the country has suffered not a little. If this money had been properly 'disposed. of, other and similar bequests might have been looked for, not only at home bat a broad. But now. with such a sad delinquency on the put of our national legislators, we can expect nothing of the kind. We again repeat the expression of a hope ) tbat the present Session will not be permitted to pass 1:7, without some definite and satisfactory action, in refe r tion to a bequest so truly munificent, and made under circumstances which should have secured for the wisks• es of Mr Smithton, the most respectable attention and consideration. Singular Conflict of antitority.—Judge Camber, of cne of the Mississippi courts, some time in July lest, issued warrants from the District court 'of Warren county fur the arrest of John terrine, Esq., the pro prietor of the Vicksbwrgh Sentinel, and Capt. Wal ter Hickey, then the editor, on the charge of eontempt of court, feended on an editorial article censuring Judge Coalter for eufering II person to go at large on boil against whom a tree bill for murder in the first degree had, been found by a grand jury. Both of the parties appeared voluntarily before his honor, and he forthwith sentenced them to six months imprisonment and a fine of five hundred dollars each. Being eon. vinced that this was a most arbitrary and tyremtical abase, or rattier assumption of power, (the offensive wards ' rMt being spoken in hearing of the court, but printed in newspaper,) His Excellency, Gov Albert Gallatin Brown, Immedmtely remitted the senteikes of imprisonment and fine; when this nu:elem./dines, Dot to be outdone by any modern branch of the State Gov etntnent, arrested both of the released persons egoist and committed them on their former sentences. The Governor immediately procured a writ of habeas corpus and brought them from Vicksburg jail before the High Court of Errors and Appeals, (Judges Sharkey, Clay. ton and Thecher,) now in session in thecity of Jackson —since which we have not heard bow the affair has progressed. It would be laughable if Judge George Coulter shout./ extend hi. prerogative a little fistula. and commit Gov Brown to jail for contempt. , The Boston Post-Oliee.—l n the recent visitor our Mr. Edward Willmer to the United States, amongst theet her public establishments of thatgreatceinitry be was forellilystruck with the efficient arrangenrams of the Post-Office at Boston, conducted by Mr. Nat. Greene, the head of the department. Under his able managment, it is entitled to the praise, and receives the approbation, of the great and wealthy community which derives so much advantage from its admirable working. Mr. Greene is an invaluable public servant, end we know that his talent is appreciated by the pub lic. On the arrival and despatch of the I:umpean mail, by the British and American mail steam-ships, nothing can exceed the regula.ity and expedition with which the business is managed. The internal arrange ments of the office, under Mr. Green's superbstand ence, place it, for all the purposes of expedition and regularity, upon a footing of equality with that of the British Metropolis, or any other in Europe. The obliging and attentive demeennr of Mr. Greene has made him a favorite with every mercantile hostas in Boiton; and tothe European stranger, his courtesy and attention demand an unlimited meed of praise semi thanks. [European. Singu o lar stale of Affairs.—ln the Mfestselppi Housef Representatives, on the 23d ult., Mr Rich mond made a report from the Commiuee on Elections, relative to Decatur county. The report states. that the county is without • representative—that Rolle Harper, said to bare been elected—but about biselec• tion there seems to be some doubt. because thepoll corn books were not sent in as required ly law—has ewe died, and Mr Stevenson, the pe tor. has ohm/M. ed. If he had not run off, the commiuee declare that he would have been ineligible to the office, became' he is owing the State a sum of money for taxes in the county, which he had collected and never paid off. A Queer Pro feet—The Courtland Democrat tells a capital story about a project tbat was Neon foot by the Whigs of Utica just before the election. The plan was to ereet a mammoth factory establishment' in that city, in the event of the success of Mr. Cloy, the machinery machiaery of which was to be turned by water taken.
