The recent intelligence from the Rio drandc has produced, as might have been cxpeCed, a high degree of excitement throughout the country. Troops are ad vancing to the seat of war from all points. Pennsylvania is again iu the front rank, h iving furnished another regiment even before some of the other States have rais ed an additional company. This shows the character of her people. There is not another State in the Union lhat has jsuflered more already from Polk's ill- judged and worse managed policy, or that ia likely to suffer more from it I.ereaner; yet she is found foremost in responding 1) the call of the Government and in risking the lives of her citizens in endea vors to get the nation out of the difficul ties in which that policy has involved her. It is to be deeply regretted that this var has not been pushed with more vigor by our Government. Though a large majority of the nation condemned, no doubt, the manner in which it was brought on by the President, .as premature at the time and under the circumstances, the whole people, nevertheless, have been looking anxiously for its successful termi nation, and thousands have nobly rallied under the nation's standard, willing to make any and every sacrifice in defence of their country's honor. But all their efforts and sacrifices have been thus far in a great measure unavailing. It is now over ten months since hostilities were commenced; much treasure lias been spent and many lives have been lost; and ret the wrongs of which we complained bave not been redressed and a peace has not been "conquered." It must be apparent to every attentive observer that the Administration is entire ly incompetent for the task upon which it has entered. Instead of sending: on, as it did, inconsiderable detachments of troops, many of whom even were cut down in detail, cither by the sword or by disease, the Administration ought 10 have pushed at once a strong force into the enemy's territory and taken possession of tiis most valuaWe towns and fortresses; which would have alarmed and disconcer ted the Mexicans, and induced them, as a consequence, to sue for peace. General Scott, as appears by his correspondence with the War Department, had early ma tured a plan of operations which lie deem ed it necessary should be carried out in order to bring the war to a successful is sue; but his plan wr.s not adapted and he himself not permitted to repair to the scene of action, as he desired to do, until quite recently, when the Administration had learned, what it ought to have known from the first, that it could not get along without his "aid and comfort." The Administration has at length a- O roused itself from its lethargy and appears intent now upon doing what it ought to bave done from the first send out a force adequate to the enterprize in which it has engaged. "Belter late than never." -Though rauch, of hal had been accom plished by our gallant armies has been in a great measure lost for want of proper means to follow up, by still farther a chicvements, the advantages which they bad gained, we shall ere long have in ser vice a force suilieient to "clear the track" as i; itdvanccs and to bring the Mexicans speedily to terms. Too much praise can rot be awarded to the officers and men for their gallant conduct throughout this war; and their deeds in future will doubt less Ic such as to maintain, fully, the high character for skill and courage which ibey have already acquired. The Steamer Hibcrnh brought over lu;ij TtLuJ $1,509,000 in specie. ALTERATIONS OF THE POST OFFICE LAWS. The following edict of the Postmaster General embodies die several changes in the Post Office laws made by Congress nt its late session. Some of them are extremely onerous and absurd that, for instance relating to transient newspapers, by which it !ecomes necessary, before a rnan ran send a newspaper to a friend, to pay 3 cents postage. The provision of the law of 1845 allowing newspapers to go free within 30" miles of the place of publication is alwuisheu. So savs the New York Tribune W hare examined two laws, nassed by con gress relating to the Post Office, and in neither of these is there a word about abolishing the free postage on ncM'spa pers adopted by the law of 1845. Where then is the authority for the Postmaster General's edict on this Subject. .'If there be a 3d law; embracing such' a provision, we have not seen it. . The laws we have seen show a disposition to tax the people to extend more favors to the law makers, who enjoy entirely too many already. Regulations of the Post Office Depart ment for the enforcement of the act, of Congress of the 1st, 2d and 3d ol March, 1847. ' " ' 1. All deputy postmasters are author ized to send through the mails, all letters and packages not weighing over two oun ces which they have occasion to write or send, relating to the business of their offi ces or of the Post Office Department en dorsing thereon "post office business," and signing their, names thereto.

Members of Congress and Dele gates from Territories may send and re ceive free, through the mails from thirty days before the commencement of each Congress, until the meeting of the next Congress, letters and packages not ex ceeding two ounces in weight and public documents not exceeding three pounds in weight.

G. All letters and packages from and to the heads of departments, or the other public officers who were entided to the franking privilege prior to the passage of the act of 3d of March 1845, in relation to the business of their respective offices, will be delivered to the person addressed without any charge of postage, as an ap propriation has been made by Congress for their payment. All letters and pack ages issuing from the departments, should be marked on the envelope "official busi ness" and be signed b)- the heads of the departments or under their direction, by their chief clerks, and by the other offi cers who were entitled to the franking privilege prior to the act of 1845 desig nating their official capacity. But such officers have not the right to send or re ceive free, their private letters or papers. 7. All Newspapers transmitted through the mails will be hereafter rated with pos tage, except exchange papers between the publishers of newspapers, and those franked by persons enjoying the privilege; and contractors may take newspapers out of the mails, for sale or distribution among subscribers. 8. Transient Newspapers, or. those not sent from the office of publication to subscribers, hand-bills of circular letters printed or lithographed, not exceeding 1 one fcTieet in size, will nav 3 cents unou ( Jc.ivery at the office and before they are . put in the mails, and all such will be - charged by deputy postmasters as prepaid matter in the way bills andupon tfWir ac counts of mails sent, and stamped or marked "paid,4 with the name of the of fice from which sent. 9.

If such should be addressed to them, it is their duty to return them to the sender under a new cover charged with letter postage. If deposited in a post office un sealed, addressed to deputy postmasters or others they will not in any case be for warded by mail without prepayment of the postage. If sealed, they will be rated with letter postage, and forwarded in the mails. 1 0.

The law will continue iii force during the war with" Mexico, and three months after its termination.. 12. Extra commission' allowed depu ty postmasters by the order of the 9th of July, 1845, are'superseded by the act of the3d of March, 1847; ' V 13. The commissions allowed by the 24th section of the act of the 3d of March 1845, are repealed, and other rates allow? ed by the 1st section of the act of the 1st of March, 1847, in lieu of them, as fol lows: '-' - , " ' , "' ' 1.

' .; ' .' 2. On all sums arising from the postage on newspapers, magazines, and pamph lets, 50 per cent. 7; . 7. As the accounts of postmasters have to be settled quarterly, and their commis sions allowed for that time, the postmas ters will credit themselves with 40 per cent, upon the first twenty-five dollars re ceived ia the quarter, and for any sum between twenty-five dollars and one hun dred dollars in the quarter, at the rate of 33j per cent, and upon any sum between one hundred and six hundred dollars re ceived in the quarter, 30 per cent; and on any sum over six hundred dollars received in the "quaiter, at the rate of 12j per cent. 8. The commission accounts will be settled as heretofore, except that the an nual compensation to which postmasters are limited, will be computed for the fis cal year commencing the first of July, and ending the 30th of June, and in due proportion for any period -less than a year. -. I 9. No other allowances can be nfade to postmasters except box-rents to-" an amount not exceeding $2,000 per annum, and the surplus of such receipts may be applied to the expenses of the office, un der the direction of the Postmaster Gen eral. The emolument or box rent ac count must be accounted for regularly in the quarterly returns, and for the same quarter as other proceeds of the office. 10. Postmasters in their returns for the present quarter ending the 31st of March, 1847, will adjust their accounts according to the above allowances. C. JOHNSON, March 12, 1847. Postmaster Gen.
