dTIIE OYSTER TitAUB OF XEVr YORK.
"WVpHiblish in another part of our paper to-day
a long, but wjwt we Iiave no doubt our reader will
find on perusal, an interesting aecount of the oyster
trade New York. The immense amount of' cap
ital invested in it, the extensive yearly sales, and
the large nujnber of persons to whom it gives con
stantemployment, and who are directly or indirect
ly dependent upon it for i subsistence, rcn Jer it of
particular public importance. It is the first time,
Hve believe, that any thing in relation to the sub
ject has aver appeared in print, and many who read
it -will doubtless be astonished at some of the infor
nmtion and facts which are presented in tins de
tailed account. It would hardly be credited that
'the ymrhj sales of oysters in this cilij etcCeds 5,000,
000, and Mud Ike nunxber of pea-soiis employed in the
InisinetK, dirodly or indirectly, is aboutjifty thousand.
It is a singular fact that the whole amount of
oysters sold in our markets, about two-thirds come
from Virginia, which has a more extensive oyster
trade than any other State in the Union.' The resi
,due is obtained from the waters of our own State,
and those of New Jersey the East river furnishing
the largest supply. A considerable supply is ob
tained from Shrewsbury and York Bay; but very
few of the latter are consumed in this city, as they
are cultivated particularly for the western markets.
One of the most interesting features in the business
is the transplanting of oysters, or their lemoval
from the "rock," or natural bed, to an artificial one.
This process is of peculiar importance, and absolute
ly necessary to the successful prosecution of die
trade. It would, in lactj be next to impossibl6 to
supplv the market during the whole year, but for
the genera! system of transplanting, which is pur
sued by all the dealers. More than a million dol
lars worth are removed every year to artificial beds,
and by this means prevented lronl spawning, which
renders them unfit ibr use. Thus a large portion of
our i.ast river oyesters were obtained from the
JSiortu river, where the sou and water are notcon
sidered so favorable to their cultivation. This par
ticulnr branch of the business is so fi'illv described
in the article itself, that it is merely necessary to
uirecc particular attention to ic
01 the fifty thousand persons engaged in the
business, the majority, of course, are dependent up-
on their own labor for support: but there are a con
siderable number of the dealeis, or, as thpy might
more proper!' be called, oyster merchants! who
possess large fortunes, amassed from the sale df
oysters alone. They arai among the most worthy
of Our citizens, and New Yorkjsnota little indebted
to their enterprise for her extengin businegsin what
has now become an indispensable article of food.

The Puice of Ikon. The Hartford Times says
, In less than a year the price of railroad iron in
Jjreatiintam lias advauced from 5 or about $25
to 10 or o0 per ton. It will probably not stop
snort oi or jui-i por ton.
. At least 23,000 miles iron railroad are now con
structing in Europe and America 14,000 at least
in this country. They will require .for their com
pleUon 2,-100,000 tons of iron. To make this quan
tity will occupy all the rolling mills in the world,
which are engaged in the manufacture of railroad
iron at least six years those of GreatBritain fur-
mshiug three-lourths, and the United States, France
and-Belfnum the remaining fourth. The best nn-
thoritica do pot estimate the largest quantity of
raiiroati iron maue in any one year even as lii"h .as
400,000 tons, yet even at this rate it will talTe six
years to furnish iron for the roads already begun:
The necessary consequence of this state of
things is, that the price of railroad iron will not on
ly-keep tip but lurther advance, and be maintained
at 'very Wb prices for a long time. This will make
tiff manufacture of railroad iron the best manufac
turing bwiuerw that can be undertaken in this coun
try for some year, lor it is athrmeu on the best au
thority, that the article which is now selling at $Y0,
with every prospect of udvancing to at least $S0
per ton, pays a fair profit to the maker at $50 per
ton.
The advance in iron will nearly double the cost
bff inany of the railways at the west and sputli, for
thecost ot graumg upon some ol them was less pet
mile than the cost of the iron, even before it ad
vanced. The profit to a few of the companies
winch have sec ired their iron at low prices, M:ill be-
very lanre. The English railroad companies are
compelled to pay $10 per ton more for their iron at
. .. . . i i -I i -
home, than the price at wnicn our rauroaa compa
nies were enabled to obtain it about a year ago,
freight and duties included.
iTnE Texas Indians. Among the btojid vices re
ceived from Texas, we find, the following :
iflfis a baleful fact, and worthy of consideration
Jjy.tlie "powers that be," that the Indians of Texas,
are now in almost a starving condition. Wild game,
which affords their only means of subsistance, has
disappeared; and they arc reduced to the necessity
of eating their own horses or starving. "Wc are in
formed by persons who have recently traveled
through their country, that days may be passed
withont meeting with game of any description; and
the Indians feeling the neglect of the Government
toward Ihcin, and impelled by hunger, are of neces
sity bound to pas3 the bounds prescribed for them
by the Government Hence the recent incursions
into the 'settlements, and the necessity of the late
call.for the Governor of this State for the companies

t . THE DEMORALIZATION OF POLITICS, J,'
-Mica re, not qClboscwho arc in.thcjiabjfc '

izatiljnsire''wghj; itvthe,mselyes;and that the exist
Jittce cT them ii beneficial to the ' interests oi the
people. They have been the instruments of doing
much good and preventing more evil. We arc con
sequently tlie advoca'ie of strict andrigidpartyism,
restricted .of course, so as not to conflict with the
higher duties of patriotism. It is, because, we Jo
?ijij1i6ld the principle oT party. organizations, ..that we
dtei're to "see preserved a high and elevatfcd slan
jind i poRlfcal morality." Unless tin's standard' is
keptnip, polities will become the pursuit only ot.tho
olfwh and corrupt, -and ihe officer of the govern
incntjiisiead' of being trusts for the benefit of the
people, degenerate into spoils for the advancement
of individuals. Honest men will Shrmic irom aspn
ifig'to stations to bft attained only by intrigue, aijd
iWj'lCienuro' of corruption. The. Presidency
and bo higher offices may not, like the Consulship of
Homo, bq exposed in the mart, and knocked down
like a horse or piece of calico to the liighest bidder,
but the means of acquiring them will be fully as ex
ceptionable. -and its influences fully as bad. The
reasons Avliich urge the.preservatiou of an elevated
polijicafmorality, apply -as cogently to the partisan,
asthe patriot, and both the great parties should
unite in preventing its demoralization. We' confi-
'dcntly-ldok to' President Pjeroe to lend his high
influence in this good work, and. permit no Gardi
nerism or ,Gaphinism, or dividing of salaries, to
.cregp into the official departments at Washington
'city. c;If the Temple has been polluted by "money
iiangerg'Jt is his duty tp expel them.
' WhiIe,vhowever, this development of the evil can
jjp"cfatiicatdd b Executive Power, there is another
phase of the rnalady to be reached only by the peo
jpleih. flieir. primary capacity at the ballot-box.
cWe allude to the log-rolling, votc-swapping,--and
lpbb3'TjnQmbering system; Every man ,wlio knows
anything df tlie modus opatindi of legislation, either
ip-Congress or tlie. State , legislatures, also knows
lhat tiiese'elemcnts mingle more or less in every
-measure, and also, in every election from that of
speaker to 'door-keeper or messenger. The log
nolling system is perhaps the raoStcommon. , This
Jis(siinply "the putting in a bill, for some general pur
pose various local items in which a portion of the
Thembdrsfcol an interest, and thus buying up and
combining votes enough to pass the general meas-
.ure, however objectionable it may be. ( Sometimes
the.. friends of the general measure uuy up inq
friends of particular measures in this way. Some
times this buying is reversed. The advocates of a
measure' are forced to incorporate local items in
their bills in order to pass them. The bad effect of
this system is seen in the almost daily passage of
bills, which if put upon then-real merits, disconnect
ed with the influence of this system, could not com
mand scarcely a respectable vote.
The vote-swapping system is another element
which operates very injuriously upon legislation.
This is another development of the same improper
principle, only more open and bold in its manifes
tation. This is simply what it professes to bc; a
swapping of votes. One member of the Legislature
or CongresSj as the case may . be, votes for some
measure of which ho disapproves in order to pro
cure the vote of another member for some favorite
proposition of his own. He thus trades away the
power of legislation entrusted to him by his consti
tuonts, and barters the rights of the people as he
would buy and sell a horse or cow.
The lobby-membering system is decidedly the
worst and most revolting system for controlling
legislation, of which we know. It is only a polite
designation for positive bribery. This system is
simply this: The beneficiaries of a bill, pending be
fore- Congress, or the State legislature, come to
Washington or the Slate capital. They put up at
the first hotels, take suites of rooms, keep the best
of Cogniac, and the mellowest of vintage, and the
flavorest of cigars, spend their money as liberally
as the Prince of Como distributed his jewelry, and
act the generous fellow to perfection. They make
acquaintance with members of the legislative body,
and ingratiate themselves into the kindness .of law
makers, by the most adroit of flatteries and most
delicate of attentions. They inform themselves of
the peculiarities of their victims, and act according
ly. If he drinks, they have at their room the best
of.liquors, and would be happy if theirfriend would
giye.Jthemi'his .opinion of it. If he smokes, out
comes a beautiful cigar case, with the promise to
send over a dozen or two of "the" besrHavanasIf
he likes a game of eucre, or brag, or draw poker,
our lobby-member js equally accommodating, and
certain to loose, for to win might make the law
maker, indisposed to the lobby-member. And some
times though it is hoped but rarely, the lobby
member accommodates his friend with a small loan.
By these and other similar arts, measures the
most objectionable are glide d through the different
stages of legislation,', and made laws. This : lobby
membering system is carried even farther. In
Washington' city lobby-membering Ts a profession.
The advocates of bills pay men of real or supposed
influence, to stay in Washington, and work through
Congress certain measures. There are in Wash
ington city, every winter, not less than one hun
dred men, who are thus retained, at so much per
monthjjWith a contingent interest in the benefits of
the bill, if passed. This whole internal and
outside influencing of legislation should be exposed,
and held up to public reprobation. The judge who
would talk to clients about their causes before him,
and tolerate such attempts to influence his decis
ion, would be impeached and removed -from the
bench at once. Why should not the legislative
branch of government be a3pure as the judiciary ?
The making of laws should certainly be as unaffect
ed by improper influences as the construeing of
them.
We have said nothing in this article about mem
bers of Congress taking fees to prosecute claims
before Congress, from the reascn that we regard this
such direct and positive corruption that it should
be punished by legislation, just as larceny or perju
ry is punished. These other corrupting influences
cannot well be readied by legislation, and conse
quently should be put down by public opinion and
the ballot box. The preservation of the morality
of politics is absolutely essential to the preservation
of our free institutions. Politicians and presses of
both parties should unite consequently in preser-'
ving it hign ana staimess.

New Hampshire Election. The recent election
in New Hampshire has resulted in one of "the most
brilliant triumphs for democracy, recorded in our
pouucai annais. n win be seen that whigery and
abolitionism have been utterly demolished0 in that
patriotic btate. The notorious abolitionist, Amos
Tuple, who was so conspicuous an ally of the whi"s
m maligning the reputation ot President Pierce du
ring the late canvass, has been overwhelmingly
beaten. This'is the verdict of the people of New
Hainpshire upon the base charges uttered bv the
whigs against Gen. Pierce, on the authority of their
co-aujutors in siauuer, tuck, I'oss & uo.
Gov. Martin's majority last year aba
about 1,100-
will now reach nearly 5.500.
The democrats carry all three of the Congress
districts by decisive majorities. Geo. W. Kit'tridge
in the first, by about 1,700 majority; Geo. W. Mor
rison in the second, by a very large plurality, and
by: from 1,000 to 1,500 over all;, aud Harry Hib
bard in the third, by from 1,200 to 1,500 majority;
To the Council, the democrats elect four, ihe
whigs one.
Nine democratic Senators; one, possibly two
whigs, and in one district no choice.
The dertiocratic majority in the house is over GO.

"Such (says the Concord Patriot,) is the com
pleteness of the victory; it is emphatically a clean
sweep. The first State election under the admin
istration of our own distinguished citizen, it was
meet and proper that it should result as it has; the
honor of the Granite State demanded it, and the
whole country expected it Conscious of the posi
tion in which they were placed by the democracy
of the Union, and of what was demanded of tliem
the democracy, of New Hampshire determined not
to be found wanting, but to achieve a triumph as
decided and overwhelming as it was important.
This resolve they have nobly carried into effect, and
we doubt not they will receive the thanks aiid con
gratulations of their brethren throughout the whole
land."
And it adds:
,'Pfiii?Clirti&ula,'s - oUhis gratifying result of our
election,' ifei!F not necessary for us to speak; they
may be gathered from ihe returns -givenin this pa
per. But we must here remark that the most "rat
ifying feature of the whole, is the signal and igno
minious defeat of Amos Tuck in the first Congres
sional district The result is just what we confi
dently anticipated; we never had a doubt that the
sterling democracy of that district would rally with
zeal and energy to cast oft from them and the State
the reproach of having such a man to represent
them in Congress. Yes, relying upon the efficacy
of the base and corrupt means by which ho was be
fore elected the free use of money and fraudulent
ballots Amos Tuck confidently expected to be re
elected. On the day of election he told a friend
that-he was sure of being elected. How sadly he
miscalculated the influence of his corrupt appliances
the figures Sufficiently demonstrate. Nobly have
tho democracy of that district vindicated themselves
from the suspicion which his over-weenin" confi
dence implied against them, and signally have they
triumphed over the corrupt coalition arrayed against
them. They have relieved their district, and StntA
iiuui u lt-ptuaeu aim a sugma wnicu his presence m
Congress has too long cast upon them, and in their
election of a true man and sound national democrat,
they have earned and will receive the thanks of
their brethren of the rest of the State and the
Union."
"This sweeping triumph of the democracy of
New Hampshire is as honorable to themselves as it
is gratifying to every friend of democratic principles.
It has set an example for their brethren of other
States, and has given to the world substantial evi
dence of their confidence in their great leader whom
the democracy of the Union have chosen for iheir
leader, and of their devotion to the principles of
their polttical faith, of which he is so eloquent and
able an expounder and so true a representative."

WEEKLY REVIEW OF THE MARKET. ,
Nashville, March 24.
The weather during the week has been for the most part
warm aud dry, though we had a heavy fall of rain on Sun
day. The river, which had receded to a low stage, com
f3en'ced'filirngup on Monday, and there is now a sufficiency
ot water for all classes of boats.
Business has maintained its usnal activity, while no new
feature, worthy of note has been developed.
Cotton-. .We left the market at the close of our last re
view steady at quotations ranging iroui 6 to S 40. Since
that time sales have been limiled, and mostly confined to
supplying orders, from the Eastern Mannfactiiries. These
orders being generally for a particular kind of cotton, have
caused an advance in rood cotton, and as high as S 75 has
been paid. We wereinfornicd that on Tuesday last 100 bales
were purchased by an outsider at 8 tftX." These, figures,
however, may not bo considered as an index of the market'
arising, as they do, from a specific demand.
Sales yesterday of over 200 bales, at prices ranging from
C to S 75. The Atlantic's advices were received yesterdav
moniiug, rcporting-a still further decline in the" Iivrpool
maikot. They will be found under the telegraphic head.
The receipts of the week amount to tfcl Bales,, against
2157 for the same.time. last year; decrease this year 12 W3.
Total receiptssince September 1st ; 86,271
" " for same time last vcar 3S.4S2
Decrease thisyear.. 2311
Tobacco. The market continues active daily sales oc
curring at the different warehouses, mostly at former rates.
Ih some cases, however, higher figures have obtained for an
unusually fine article of manufacturing leaf, as in the case of
the crop of Mr. Henry Clark, of Bedford county, a portion of
which sold at 6 5Ca$7 00. It was purchased by A. J.
Musseiman'A' Co'., extensive Tobacco Manufacturers on Col
lege street, who are always in the market to pay the high
csf price for this description ofTobac'o. Wc mention this
fact for the benefit of our weekly readers, who may desire
todisposc of a superior article of Tobacco, and are under
the impression that Nashville is not the proper market for it.
Sales yesterday at the various warehouses ot 43 hhds. at
prices ranging from 4 00 to 56 00.
Groceries The transportation of the week have been or
dinarily active, with no new feature of interest evolved.
The receipts have been small, not equal to the sales, aud
theic has been a oouscquont diminution of the amount of
stock. Thei. 7A II. 7itf.arrived yesterday with a lot of
groceries. Our quotations following are substantially, the
