Tli folljwinp stale-men from a Washington letter in the ells us something worthy of record: "Under the administration of Millard this pime has come to what is to be hoped rrny prove is climax. There has hirdlv been a week in the last three rears wherein some leading New York appointee of Mr. Fillmore ha not Tlsited apushington as a paid attorney, for some W'riy or parties whste purposes, apaihst 'he treasury of tlie United Slates are not to be carried out under the adminslration uf public affairsfounded ort 1 onty and justice towards the public o-.

During his "ifa-time, the late Ex-Governor John Young was the leading broker engaged in thU particular business.

I do not know how I can better illustrate what I mean, than by calling to the recollect iol of your readers the agen-ey of ex-Governor John Young in negotiat-injg Mr. Genrjra Law's purehase of an in-t terest ia the Gardiner claim." The fact tlmt auihtri atively revealed aai been -atisnected bT the public. Thp slolua and Gardiner fraud ere "put iaugh" br precisely the sneans described jOylthe Tribune. But we confess to some nsatiou of surprise at the "at the practice of plundering the treasu ry oy the collusion ot its oBicial guaraians been reduced to system under the pre-nf adjniitistration, aad has been followed a legitimate buiness by the favorites ni retainers of those in power. The Tribune's correspondent descends to details, and gives a notable instance io- which a government go-between effected an agreeable arrangement between a man of money and a personage high in the confidence of the administration.

It seems that the sale Corwin's interest in th Gardiner 'poculation was negotiAlei by Ex-Gover. -assistant treasurer I his single fact suggests iluron of reflection concerning the means tacit asrreements by which Law wa. iced to pnrchase the interest of Corwin.
