Mission OF OFFICE -BgGoARs TO "WAsHNoToN-
We understand that very impor tant mission OF
office. beggars departed from this CT y for ashing
ton, Immediately after the rec4pt eleetoD, for she
purpose of moving heaven and EARTH Mr.. Polk and
ms Cabipe, to remove the Collector, Post mastcs,
and all the other ncumbents o. Offices in this city
ia the gift OF the general government. This mis-
sion Is composed of one or two agents OF the
clique OF the Morning Nstcs, and perhaps some Of
me other party organs. They are armed with docp
ments and petitions, and papers and letters 81 vi
descriptions from all sections of the party, in order
20 effect an entire change 10 the Custom-H House
here. What success they may have with Mr.. Polk
do not know. but we sbotd think that the Presi.
dent and his Cabinet ,ought 70 be very wary and
verycautoD howthey listen to these private repre-
sentanons, and make some inquiry into the m olives
and purposes which actuate these men in their
efforts to remove the present efficient and worthy
Collector of the port Of New York.


As for the Postmaster, Mr.. Graham, we don't
care how soon they remove him, or how long he
remains. He is beneath all criticism as public
officer. We were one OF the first and most anxious
for his appointment, but we have been as sadly
deceived in the expectation formed OF his capacity
for public duty, as we were in the recent native
corporation, from Mayor Harper down. We do
not care how soon Mr.. Cave Johnson, the Post
master General, makes move in this case.


The Marshalship of this port is another matter,
We trust that none Of the hangers-on of tae papers
-Slamm, Bang IL Co., or any Of the firm-wil be
appointed TO that post. No doubt, now that the
election in this city is over, there will be general
and combined effort made at Washington to effect
the removal Of all those who hold government
Offices here, for there is great deal Of hunger and
thirst amongst those attached to Tammany Hall
and its affiliated clubs.
