flit Three JudasfJ.-
! From every section of our country, the three
miserable” traitors, Lebo, IVagonsellcr and Ma~
near, are tocolvlrtg. tiro"just anathemas'ol the
Dcmociatib press. But for their traitorous con
duct, the contemptible wretches would hare liv
ed and died In their’original obscurity; their
gold-bought npostney has, howevet, “ damned
them to everlasting fame.” The Washington
thubn, relerring to the election to the IT- Slates
Senate of that political trickster and arch renn
gnde, Simon Cameron, says “ The feeling of
mortification and indignation excited by the
treachery of the throe individuals in the Penn
sylvania Legislature, w ho, elected by their con
stituency ns democrats, had the lack of shame
and honor to vote tor Simon Cameron, the Re
publican candidate for United States Senator,

day, ns the enormity of the treason is deliber
ately comprehended. The first Impulse every

Every Democratic exchange that had in season
received the news came to us levelling their
curses upon them. Every republican exchange
that came to us came to us exulting over the
election of Cameron, but ominously silent ns to
those whose treachery was procured to secure
j it. The feeling of morlillcntion was not con
cealed by the democracy, and uilh a slight ex
cept ion or tan, was manifested in I ho silence
of the opposition. A feeling of Indignation nt
the defeat of Col. Forney, under the peculiar
I circumstances, ran through the veins of the de
mocracy, ami through flic veins of the republi
cans everjnlierc mu tingling a burning blush
of shame at the means by which Gen. Cameron
succeeded, that, in their very ( (foils to conceal
it, has been hut the more openly revealed
It is natural Mint it should bo so. Treason

It is said that these three I’ennsjlr.inia Ju

by the opposition. W'a wifi speak lor the re
publicans once, nml vouch that it w ill nut be so.
The old illustration is not) cl so trite but Mint
it may be called into service again. The Ame
rican colonics pointed the finger of scorn at
Benedict Arnold. The English gloried in the
[ treason, lint ever despised the traitor. So the
American democracy to a man point the finger
of scorn at la-bo, M'agonsollor, and Manear.—
The republican parly may rejoice in the fluffs
ol Iho treason, but they will erer dcsplso (he
traitors. There is no longer place and power
tor them; there is no longer respect loxrards
them , there is no longer pence of mind for
them.
Tli o cruel Injury I hoy have done the party
that, confiding in them, has wanned them into

City (Missouri) Examiner of the inst;
Tm: Postal Svstkm —The Union publishes
a letter from I’ost-Maslir General Campbell,
in answer lo inquiries made of him by ft Com
mittee of Congress, respecting some proposed
changes in the pos;al system. In answer lo
the question whether a uniform postage of two
cents were advisable, the postmaster says no.
The amount of service nmv performed for three
cents is probably the cheapest postage in the
world. He sees no reason for reducing the ten
cent rale for over three thousand miles. The
expense now of sending letters between the At
lantic and Pacific ih maily half a million of
dollars more than the government receives fiom
the postage at the present ten cent rate. Un
der the system of pre-payment, this tax is
equal on all persons If practicable,
he would have the mcmwsof the department
defray its legitimate expenses : fur what belter
or more just rule could lie adopted tlinu that
they should pay the expense of the mail service
who alone enjoy (he benefit of it? Here Ihe j
operation of the lax is direct,just, and certain ; I
whereas, so far ns any deficiency is supplied
from the treasury, it is indirect, and may, and
doubtless does, lo a great or less extent, impose
a burden on many who do not derive anyeqmv
alcnt or advantage whatever from it in return.
On every article of transient printed mailer, he
thinks it would be well Tmhavc a uniform rate,
say one cent for the first three ounces, and
one cent for each additional ounce, or fraction
of an ounce, pre-payment compulsory. He is
in favor, if U is practicable, of seeing the letter
cftiriera’ charge for delivery in cities reduced to
one cent, but is not in favor of receiving houses
and letters Carried nrthout extra charge in cit
ies, as it is giving the ciii/.ens of such places
special privileges, winch persons out of the
bounds of a city earthot enjoy. There have
been difficulties in the way of a system of mon
ey orders, but ho hopWycl to to put a plan in
operation fur the. convenient and safe remit,
tnnee of small sums. Aumfuimand low rale
of ocean postage meets ! is approval, but it re
quires the general concuirence of foreign coun
tries- lie is In favor of an immediate abolish
ment of the franking privilege, or charging the
I ordinary rales of postage on letters and nil
printed mailer which now pass free through
the mails, txccyi exchanges between publish
ers. The abolition of Corttpulsoty pre-par
, ment and double postage on nil matter not pre
I paid, be limihs it would be a retrograde move
- ment, nor does bo believe (but the return of I
dead letters unopened is desirable. Unless I
they arc returned free of charge t would im-1
pose an additional, and for the most part use

Np.cjuo.—We find the following account of the
burning of the negro, at Abbeville, Ala., in the
Lufanla Native. The orime fur which Moso
nas burned, wan the murder of his master.
A large concourse was assembled at Abbeville,
numbering from -1000 to GOOO. The negro
was taken from the jail by the guard : no op
position was oflered by the sheriff. The place
was arranged before the negro arrived. A
green pine stake was set in the ground firmly,
and around that, a pile of fat pine wood was
arranged m diameter about six feet, and about
four feet high. He was bound hand and feel
to the pole, and la-fore fire was placed to the
pole, the wretch made.the following confession ;
“Thai he bad murdered his master, but would
not have done it had it not been for a white
man.” He made some other confessions, im
plicating a white man and onothcr negro In the
affair. Our informant says, llial when he left
the fire had already consumed his bond, legs
and feet, and that they were piling on more
wood to fhiish the body.
O’" Ukckkti.y in Cincinnati, where fuel
famine hns been raging one of the oily officials
saw a man come out of an alley with a load
of wood on his shoulders. He went up to him
and charged him with stealing It. The reply
was—“l have slolcn it. My children are freez
ing with cold. I have no wood and no money.
Tho man from whom! am taking this has plen
ty of wood. When belter times come, I will

Washington, January 3.1857.
<5 E r. 4.—lt is no part of the duly of a Post
master to receive and deliver to subscribers any
oilier newspapers than those which come in the
mail, or In pul the address on newspaper* sent
In clubs, or In deliver ihnn from u furnished
list, nor should he do either, even through roar-
Icsy, unless it may he done without interfering
with the legitimate business of his office.
JAS I'AMPHKI.L,
Postmaster General.
"t This Is equivalent to ft positive and total pro
hibition of any such service ns writing names
of subscribers on papers previous to their deliv
ery, ns it cannot be done ‘'without interfering
with the legitimate business of the office.’’
This decision is not only timehj but eminently
just. We hope our colcniporaries of the press
will give it a wide circulation.
Another decision of considerable importance
to postmasters has just been called out by the
following corrsspondcncc:
Cleveland, (Post Office,) Jan. 10, 1857.
Dear siu : Under the late post office law
and decisions of the department, requiring pre
payment by stamps of all transient printed
.mailer, including lottery circulars and papirs,
I would respectfully ask
Ist. Can the publishers of such papers by
tendering the money lluow upon the officers
of the Post Olfisc Department the labor of affix
ing sminps to said papers ?
2d. Does duty or courtesy require of post
masters the affixing of stamps to letters and
other mailable mat ter where the money is ten
dered. Bespcctfnlly. fee.
J. W.tiUAV, Postmaster.
Hon. Horatio Kino, First Assistant Postmns
lerthneral, Washington, D C
Reply of the Department.
Post Office Defartmksit.
Appom'ment Office, Jan. 13. 1*57.
Sir : Your letter o( the loth ins'nnl is re
ceived.
In answer to r<-nr first inquiry. I am in
slnietcd by tbe PoslninMcr (icnernl to inform
you that It is not tbe du'y of the posiuiAslei to
place postage stamps upon circulars and o'her
transient printed matter dtpnsiUd for mailing
in Ins office. Tliis must be done by the sen
der.
With ngnrd to yonr second inquiry.! have
to stale that in directing postmasters to sec
that the provision of the law is earned out.
which gives him the power to require them “to
place postage stamps upon pre paid lei tors' upon
which such stamps may not have been placed
by the writers,” it was neither the intention
nor expectation of the Post .MnsterOeneral that
it would throw upon postmasters the labor of
affixing stamps to letters, where the writers
might, without inconvenience, have dune 't fur
themselves. ...Themain thing is fur postmas
ters to keep llumsehcs supplied wnh s amps,
that all persons having occasion to use mat
readily obtain them.
I am, respectfnllv. Ac .

Death or Hon. Preston S. Brooks.— The
Washington Union of Wednesday Inst chronicles
the death union. Preston S. Brooks, member
of Congress (rum South Carolina, who expired
suddenly at his lodgings, in Hint city, on the
evening of thu ‘27th ult., trom an attack of
croup. The deceased had been In his seat in
the Mouse, on tho Saturday previous, in the
enjojaient ol his usual health. Tito Washing
ton correspondent of the New York Herald
thus refers to tho last illness and dealh ol Air.
Drooks ;
<• 11 0 had boon unwell since Sunday, but only/
called in n physician on Tuesday niornlng'. < "s*l l itf|’
doctor cauterized Iris throat, and it was Mippn.v I
se<l he was getting heller. In the evening hit I
symptoms huc.amn slightly worse, and Doctor
Hull was called In. Just ns lie arrived, ,Mr.
Brooks gave a convulsive movement and breath- '
od Ids list. Ills death was entirely unexpected.
Uu was twice married. He was only Uurlyso
ven years old. lie leaves a wife and lour chil
dren at homo In South Carolina. Judge Holler
arrived at bis room shortly after his death, and
was greatly affected. Mr. K.i.iU and Mr. ()rr
were present when ho died. Jitr. Brooks had
been in bed for a day or two. an tier lug I rein the
effects of a severe cold, lie was telling his
friends he had passed tiro crisis of his illness
and fell considerably improved in health, when
he was sei/.-d with violent croup, and died In
about ten minutes nllerw aids. Hu expired m
intense pain. Iflio event, so sudden, has eansed
much surprise and sympathy throughout the
i capital. Until Ihe occasion of tho outrage on
Senator Sumner, Mr. Brooks was regarded hy
nll as a kind and gentle hearted man, and he
possessed warm and attached friends. It is imt
onr purpose lo revive tho sad remembrance of
5 Hint deed i its ignominy belongs to South Caro
■ tini, more—much more—Hum to the impulsive
, young man who was solected as tint fool of Its
huharous vengeance, and in ado to believe that
ho was acting a chivalrous, not ftdastnrdly part.
, Thin ono sad, dark spot u|mn bin memory, must
, now look still rnoro grim and indoleiialhlo, and
nuke truthful tho words of the orator over the
bier of Cush ir :
“ Tho evil that men do, live niter them;
Thu good is oft interred ultli their bones.
So—ln alt charity and Christian feeling may
it not he with Preston S. Brooks! Strange,
pinning strange, that onr paper of Tuesday,
w Inch contained tho announcement of Ida sud
den death, also presented (lie h-ltor of Senator
Sumner lo the Legislature of Massachusetts,
accepting the honor of re-election to tho Senate
Chamber, from whence he Inis boon detained
lor months by the blows which fell from the
hand now stllU'd In death! The coincidence
is look striking nut to bo used lo *' point a mo

that Dr. Kano's health had improved, mndh to

MlmiO IN CiiDiiouus.-—The Now York
Churchman insists upon a thorough referm in
sacred musio in the churches, and as a necessa
ry beginning in that direction, it urges the ex
clusion of females from the organ lofts. Tho
editor argues that they have no business there,
and St. Paul Is quoted as authority tbit “wo
men aro-uot pormilteiL to-teach/*''and ought to
bo “silent” In tho house of Godi Tlw choir, it
thinks, should consist of mala 'adults and the
choirs U-r boys; and, as'another reform, it
would have oil these brought down from the
gallery, robed in surplices, ami placed with the
priests in (lie chancel.
The last Kansas Outrage.
Kansas has become tp be a country.to which
wc.havo grown tired of directingour/attentiori.
In fact Kansas lias got to be a bore.- Her vir
gin eoif, her fine climate, her magnificent loca
tion, even her splendid prospccla of future free
dom, bare become to be mailers of.jpdiflercnt
interest, on account of llio intolerable din to
which tliis much abused, much lauded, much
talked of, and much lied about- territory has
been subjected. It is not the fault of Kansas
that she is gelling into disrepute ns an enter
taining subject; but is the fault of the thou
sand and one editors, orators, and preach
ers, who have been conspiring for the last three
years, with united pen and voice, lu render her
a nuisance. Hut distasteful As’KanSnfl evident
ly is to the general render, it is well enough
to look after her occasionally to see .whether
the Border Ruffians have not s'olcn the trrilo
ry and earned it into Missouri, or, whether the
•‘shriekers” have not bundled it--up surrepti
tiously and made tracks with it fur “away
down East.*’ ‘
The lust account from the territory, up to
present willing, is that the State prisoners,
confined at Lerompton. had been spending a
verv miserable Christmas. Twenty-one pris
oners, marl; cs of freedom, were sentenced on
Christmas day, by a bard hearted and obdu
rate sheriff, to go from I<ecomplon to Law
rence, on their parol of honor. In cal lin-koy.
Their keeper, a fellow by the name of Hamp
ton. a perfect brute in human foim, with a
view of satiating his innate ermlty. went along
to witness the infliction of litis unlawful pun
ishment. It is said that the poor suflerers
were so overcome by tins inhuman treatment
that they been"- e lon full |o express their feel
ings. Where Horace tlrcelv to give vent to
