Tho country iontnmnturii me tin a atrik o and thuro Ueointtoriiutiun lit the PoHtufliee Department. A dispatch from Wanhingtciii states that these offi cials aro resigning in suili iiumbors tlmt the J)e)iarUneiit finds it didlftill to fill tlio viicunciis with competent persons, iuu i-uio oi tins rmntit' among tho rural niuil elinger is the recent Act of Congress busing llieir compensution upon tho amount ol stump canceled lit their respective ofllucs instead of upon tho stumps sold Under tho former system u great many country postmasters, who connected some retail business with their post oflkos, paid for their goods in stumps. It was a good arrangement. J hey hud a profit on the dry-goods and gro ceries with which they supplied their customers, and a profit on tho currency furnished them by tho Government, Some crof roads postmasters thus did a larger business ia tho sale of stumps than wus done in populous and thriv ing towns. Hut tho recent Act of Congress muking the coiiiptnsutiiui depend on the number of slumps cuiiceletl 1ms broken in upon this wholesale traffic in slumps on the pint cf the riiiul po.-luiitsleis. Jlehco there is great grief among this vuluuble class of pub he servants. They can no longer dis poto of stamp ut a profit to their city creditors in payment ol dry -goods und groceries. There aro not fur from three thousand of there officials in Pennsylvania alouo, and many of them aro on a elriko. Under the former system, which supplied them with a convenient currency and gavo them a profit on h-Buing it, they were loyul to Republican rule, lint they aro dis gusted at the meanness of u Democratic Congress. They cannot bo expected to take so activo a part in elections hereafter, or to swing: the bloody shirt with their nccustomcd energy. The cuuso for which they fought so nobly has perished. Nor can they bo ex peeled to contribute so liberally for campaign purposes since a Democratic Congress has so ruthlessly cul oil' their sources of supply. lint l'ostmastc General Key need not despair. If tho country postmasters who havo been accustomed to the enjoyment of tho abuses of the former pructice w ill not servo, ho can find others w ho will be willing to take their pluces under the new conditions. Tho love of office in this country is i;oi so easily extin guished. In tlio South he will, no doubt, experience somo difficulty in finding loyul J.c publican who are com potont for tho duties of postmaster. But the ox-Kcbols will be willing to serve their neighbors without regard to tho compensation, rutin t than let tho postofUces be abandoned. If "loyal" postmasters oro tho sufferers, il is a matter of congratulation thut a Demo cratio Congress has destroyed tho ille gitimate traffic in stamps. Ilttrristmrg Patriot. . r ISSUES COAFMOTL(! THE PEOPLE. First. General Grant is unqiiestion. ably to bo tho Jiepublicun candidate for President in 18S0, and in tho event of his possiblo election all tho extrava gance, corruption, proscription and tyranny that characterized his former administrations aro of courso to bo re vived. Contraction, in tho solo inter est of money-lender, instcud of honest resumption for tho icople's Interest, will then bo enforced to its utmost possible limit, silver will again bo dq monctized, tho greenbacks will bo ob literated, and bank und brokers, hisky rings and Government con tractors, navul rings, army rings, and every species cf plunderers, will revel again in a carnival of immense profit to themselves olid oppression to tho people Grant's election for a third term would bo tho practicul establish ment of a dictatorship. Oncu again elected, if ho cannot be ro elected at tho end of that term, ho will bo re placed in tho Presidency by tho sumo means Iluycs was placed there. Ho played thut gamo for Iluycs, and what, ahull prevent him from resorting to the same moans to con tin no his own power ? General Sherman's miittcrings already foreshadow what use is expected to be made of tho army, und such sentiments a ho utter aro intended to educate tho army to such uses, as well as to fumiliurir.o tho people with such idea. Tho warning is already given by Grant's lioutcuanU. Let the people tuko heed in timo by crushing the treason in tlio bud, which is only Ufbc done by de feating tho Iicpublican candidates ut tho election this Full. Second. All intelligent men know, and tlio cundid ones admit, that Hayes was not elected President. Tildcn had a majority of over a quarter of a mill ion of votes and a clear majority of the elector. Vet fraud under tho protec tion of tho army was mado to vitiate the latter. Congress itself wn threat ened by tho military power; even tho .Suprome Court was corrupted, and in consequence of these thing a man now occupies tho Presidency who was never elected, but overwhelmingly defeated for tho position. This fraud upon popular rights, this defiance ol election by tho people, this bold usurpation, ill bocomo a precedent unless tho pooplo vindicate thoir tights by con demning Il at tho elections. If this villainy and contempt for law, the Constitution and popular right is to pas without rebuke, if tho mon who porpolrutcd- it defiantly aro to bo sus tained by tho pooplo at the polls, what is to provont General Grant, or any corrupt President from practicing it in the fultiro r Ihe usurper can then roler to precedent (always a strong support), and they will point to tho act as proof that tho pooplo will not rceist or condemn it, but support such nsurpation. Hut If tho precedent cf pulling a man into the Presidency who notoriously was not elected ho condemned now at tho polls by so great a Stolo as Pennsylvania, it is not likely to be repeated or attempted in the near futiiro. Let every man who possesses patriotism boar these important facts in mind boforo he pro coed, to cast a vote that will givo aid to future nsurpation. Third. Tho Inordinately extravagant expenditure of the State and Federal Government cannot bo stopped under Republican rule. These have been In creased three to lour fold, a wo shall I tako fcuukhin toabcw S.M.ittM3JMl. Y urn. Jart f.-f.fw "". ' 'l '! ministrations. Where we hud few officers, under the luller I here arc droves, hordes and ballalious and armies now. Wheru low sulurics pre vailed thou, fortunes are mudu from sulurics in u few year now, and where hundred were paid for sulurics thou. sunds aro paid now. Taxes upon the pooplo, almost unknown then, full with crushing force upou everybody except moncy-lcnc.ers now. ro long us uto Kepublicun party remains in power theso evils' must continue, and increase until thu public burdens must produce revolution. The oppression from this source, now ubouiiunhlo, will soon be come intolerable it speedy relief is not given by a total overthrow of the lto publican party. Fourth. It is degrading to the Stulo and insulting to tlio muiibood of her sons that u Senutorship should be handed down from father to son as a lumily chattel, without consulting tho peoplo and by diciution to a fickle und corrupt .Legislature. In tbe purer days of tbe liepublio such insolence und dictation would have been resented with universal indignation, and it author, thu recipient and their ubutlors, would have been consigned to iiltcr- oblivion. llusall manhood left us that such things ure submitted ? This lion become dot.bly odious in view ot the lucl thut the sun l.ud never rendeted service in uny public or privute posi tion thut showed the Icailquulillculion for United Slulcs Senator. Tho re election of Don Cuinuron lo thu foiled State Senate would involve Cameron ascendency in the Slate for ul leust six years more, for all hi strength is In his position in tho Sunulu und conse quent control of tho Slate's share ol Governmental putroiiuge. The flowe of tho iicpublican party in this Stutu, its real talent and respectability, will have to fight Cuinuron six years hence if they do not crush him now, and twclvo years hence il they do not do it then, und so on for all lime. V ilh the Federal patronage in hi hands Cam. cron will never yield the ubsolulo die tutorship of hi party until defeated, lie is wcukcr now than ho will be iu tho future if the Federul patronage bu continued in hi hands. To crush him now is, therefore, tho only courso of safety for thoso men of tho iicpublican party w ho hope to reach posts ol honor and leadership of the Republican party in Inline. While ho leads ihey can only be tools, to receive preferment us he cliootes to dole il out. Thut ho will never favor able or brilliant men is quito sure for all of things he cunnol afford to eclipse himself or show h deficiency by contrast with ability. Filth. Colonel lloyt und tho other Iicpublican candidates for Stutu ollieei are the mere products und rcpresentu tives ol' ll.u w rong measures and bud practices complained of, and their elec tion w ill be a continuance of theso ob noxious measures and practices. In fuel it niuy bo fairly u.-Bumed thut theso evil measures and practice will be intensified and increased if their rep resentatives was endorsed by tho peo ple. Grow and Wickcrnbam both showed great strength with tho runk and file of their party, whilo Colonel lloyt showed but little or nono,yot tho latter distanced both in the race for nomination I Chief Justice Agncw commanded tho respect of all parties and everybody, except tho elan Cam eron, yet ho wa unceremoniously and disgracefully set aside. A printer and editor of a Sunday newspaper was as contemptuously put forward for Secre tary ol tho Interior, though ho is ad mitted to bo without qualification for tho ofllco, and probably could not tell a land warrant or copy of survey from a uow-fungled type setting machine or improved milk teslor. Sixth. Tho Democratic candidates are ull nominees evolved by tho peoplo, ol ample experience and peculiar fitness for the places for which tlicy are nomi nated. Mr. Dill's nutiiral talents and great acquirements, combined with his long experience in tlio Legislature (a real apprenticeship to tho business), peculiarly fit him for Governor. He is no clan candidate. Devoted friends submitted his minio to tho Democratic people and without special effort by himself or other ho wr.s placed in nomination. Imminently a man of in tegrity, while prudent and a careful thinker nml actor, he will provo a fru gal and wise Governor, ever watchful of the people's interest. Judgo litis ranks with tho ablest and most brilliant of his profession. Mr. Fcrtig is upright and competent, and Mr. Africa has all his life been engaged in business that familiarizes him with tho duties of Sec retary ,of tho Interior. Ho is in fact tho only nit n over pluced in nomina tion for tho ofllco, or ihe ono upon which it is mainly founded, who hud practical knowledgcof it duties. This fact added lo his unblemished public and private character should assure his election, oven woro thoro a majority against his parly. Such is tho situation. It 1 rarely thut people havo such important qucs tions to decido at an election a we havo above referred to. Let them be well considered, and let patriotic Im pulses prevail. A small parly ol hostile Indians who recently committed murders at tho mouth of tho Dear and Hock crock, in Montana, was overtaken on tho 21st ultimo by Lieutenant Wallace, with thirteen soldier and two citizen, when six wero killed, including the chief, Tudubur, and threo wounded. Only eight of the party escaped unin jured. Thoro were no casualties among tho soldier. Just us Representative Alexander II. Stephens was closing a speech a few days ago in Wilkes county, Ga., tho platform, which was crowded with people, fell with a great crash, and Mr. Stephens fell with it; but he was quickly raised and held up to sight, and when il was announced that ho was unhurt cheer after chocr was given. Dennis Kearney, the California agi tntor, arrived in Boston on thMth Inst, and was met M tho depot by several huntlred people, and on being driven to the Shorman Houso addressed tho crowd from the balcony, denouncing politician, monopolies, capitalists, and I ho prens. THE JIEATItKX ClllXKB. From accounts telegraphed East il appears that the Chinese Kmbassy, lulely arrived on our shores, met noth- uul'ilik luu B.aV ol lis Miutlliiera) im huh Francisco. It I said lliut tho Statu und city olllciuis were disposed to pay some attention lo the Kmbassy, but, through fcur of provoking the populur prejudice unreuHoriablo u it might be, they pursued tho uugiululul course ol Ignoring it presence. This cold wel come on American soil I understood to have produced u very dispiriting effect on thu Kiubussy, which it is lo be hoped may bo dispelled by the cor dial reception of our Oriental visitors said to bo awaiting them ill New York and Washington. The evils ol Chinese immigration to this country, concern ing whioh such a hue und ory has Uu turly been ruisod, should not be allowed to seivo as a pretext for, und iu no wise justifies, suoh open discourtesy us ia said to havo bouii Buffered by thu Chincso Ambassador, who, by thu wuy, from all accounts und from a published interview with him, appears u very sensible and Intelligent sort ot indi vidual.

Conceding the Chinese question to bo ono demanding legislation, is it not a reasonable cluim that action by tho law-making power is likely to prove better adapted to the wauls of the case if un intelligent und well informed rep resentative of tho Celestial Kmpiro is upon the ground, than it would bo if carried through under tho Inspiration of an anti -Chinese hurrah ? There are always minor considerations to he taken into account in tho disposition of a question of so greut moment as is this ono of Chinese immigration ; und theso minor considerations aggregated are likely to assume proportions whoso magnitude entitle them to be carefully weighed, constituting as they do a fuctor n huso composition should bo al lowed to leaven tho lump of our final settlement. Ourulmoncd eyed visiters at latest accounts had shaken tho dust of the Chinese-hating metropolis from their unweleomed fcrt, and in tl spcciul train were speeding Euslwurd That their experience lu the city of hood lums und bonanza king is not to bo duplicated in the National Capital is evident from the preparations that havo been there in progress in view ot their anticipated arrival. The popular prejudices of thu Pacific slope have no existence among our Eastern popula tion, removed as they are from tho influences and conditions amid which our Mongolian fellow-citizens aro ro gnrded with so much detestation ; and tho Stuto Department, which looks upon tho mission of tho Embassy as ot great importance, announces tho pur pose of according to our distinguished guests a roception wilh all tho honors duo their high office. Whilo in Sow York tbe Chamber of Comnterco will entertain thorn in a manner befitting tho representatives of a greut Nation having important commercial relations with onr country.
