Such conduct must greatl y lessen popular respect for the Chief Mag istrate. It he can- not or will not control his own household , he oug ht not to ask or expect others to come to his rescue in the hour of danger. It was, in former days , made a grave charge against Democratic administrations , that local oOicers wepermitte d to interfere (such was the expression) in elections ; and , if I am not mistaken , nearl y all now forming members of the present administrati on denounced such interference as incompatible with the purity of the elective fran- chise. I could never see much danger from that quarter , but if thos e who urged it then did , it is their duty now, when in power , to enforce obedience up- on their own appointees. This laxity coup led with another significant fact , kindred in its character , must raise a doubt of former sincerity. I refer to the fact that that now amidst all the apprehended danger of a dissolulion of the Union , the President and his cabinet are busy in removing the few remain- ing good Union Democrats from subordinate offices , and filling their places with men , some , at least , of whom give no reliable evidence of respect for the Constitution beyond a desire to hold a commission under it. This pitiful movement in the midst of a threatened revolution has but one parallel in history —"Nerofiddled while Home was burning." It is possible this censure may to some extent be removed by' the future action of the Executive.— There is some reason to believe the President is about to make himself felt in quarters where official interference in elections has alread y mateiiall y af- fected the honor and good name of his administra- tion. The Washington Republic has latel y, more than once, hinted at such a result , and from other reliable sources the same course of Executive action is pretty clearl y indicated. Be this as it may, the De- mocratic party has but one course to pursue—prevent , if possible,the election toCongres of any mans favor- able or pled ged to a continuance of the slavery ag i- tation. Ours is now what it ever has been , the Un- ion part)7, and that character our press should main- tain. The peop le are coming right. A great change has alread y taken plac e, and there is reason to be- lieve a large portion of the Union Whi gs of District No. 10 will , in future , withhold support from the present nominee. You have thus far foug ht the bat- tle nobl y: continue so to do, and 1 1shall have confi- dence in the final trium p h of Ihe democratic party in your distiict. Yours trul y, P. W. Leland.

P©B't of Barnstable, Dec 30th—Arsch Auro- ra, Coval,Trovineetown. Launched—At East Boston , 21st inst, by Mr. Saml Hall , a superior ship of 1320 tons , called the Tornado, owned by Danl C Bacon, Esq., and others. She is in- tended for the California trade, to be commanded by Capt Hollis , late of shi p Samoset. This is the ship which it was at first intended should be called the Game Cock. Disasters^ kc. Bark Olof Wyk , of Boston , condemned at Monte- video , sold for $1070. The masts, rigging, &<;, were sold separatel y. Schs Croton , Chase, and Tcllus , Adams , of and from Boston , at Jercmie , were driven ashore in a Norther Nov 26, and were lost; crews saved , and all ar- rived at New York , 22d inst, in sch Ariadne. Both vessels were partl y insured. In the storm of 23d inst, the tide and sea at Smith 's Point. Nantucket , were so hi gh,that a considerable part of the cargo of ship Jacob Perkins, which had been landed there was swept away. Three or four boats and a scow sank alongside the shi p. , Brig Thos & Edward , of Portland , fm Bucksport for Providence , anchored off' Chatham at noon , on the 24th inst. and at 2 put cut away the foremast. Boats were unable to board her until evening, when they found she had seven feet water in the hold and had lost all her sails. They took her in tow the next evening, and an- chored her in Stewarts Bend , with the intention of get- ti ng her into Monomoy Point. Provincetown , Dec 24—Br sch Ada , Wilkie , ftn La Have, NS, for Boston , with 5000 bush salt under deck , and a quantity of bark on deck , came ashore this morn- ing about 3 o'clock, half a mile to the Eastward of Race Point Light; crew saved. This disaster occurred in consequence of Capt W mistaking the light. The sch is badl y hogged , some of her bilge seams are open on each side, and the tide ebbs and flows in her. She is a fine looking sch, only 6 months old , and was insured at Nova Scotia. Cargo not insured. Dec 25—The salt in the Ada is dissolved , and the vessel will be a total loss, with the exception of sails, cables, anchors , &c.

Bri g Commaquid , Snow, of and for Boston , fm La- guna , came out of Holmes' Hole, 20th inst ,in charge ol a Vineyard pilot, who got her on Nantucket Shoals, where she struck several times and came off leaking badl y. Came into Boston Bay on Sunday night, and early on Monday morning was within two miles of Co- hasset rocks , when her sails were blown to pieces, and the vessel was driven across the bay. To prevent her going on shore, Capt S came to anchor under Billings- gate Island , at, the mouth of Wellfleet Bay, where she held on. The crew are badly frosted. Whalers.
