(Vir Mr. Grow's promptness and spirit in meeting and defeating the attempt of the Senate to increase - the rates of postage—which Was only an attempt to make the North bear more burdens fOr the South— meets with warm applause from thepeople. but Is of course Tery strongly condemned by. suck pro•slarery sheets as the Washington Union. The' Union char 'gee Mr. Grow with defeating the Postoffico Appro• priation bill. A Washington db - ipatch, dated March 6th, says: The Union, to-iay; treats its Sunday renders to a series of ,misrepret , entations to the effect that Mr. Grow defeated the Post-Office. Appropriation bill, when the record 'shows that Mr.. Gtow, whose singl e voice conid.have prevented it, permitted Mr. Phelps to report a bill appropriating neatly twenty.rix ions of dollars for the Post-Otlice Department, which passed the House, Mr, Grow veting tor it. It wen t to the senate, and as thery killed by Tocenhv, Ma son, Bayard, and Company.. M t. Grows achievement in preventing the increase - of postage, annoys the Union greatly. Commenting en the recent attempt in the U. S. Senate to increase the rates of postage, the New "York 77meg refers to the fact that the Postoffice DePartmentl, in the North and East;Ls more than self sustathing, while in the South and West it is not so: and' quotes the statistics showing that the North has not 'only paitifor its own !costal facilities, but has also paid one million orcr annually, the surplus going to Make up the deficit of the South and West, The . Tim's proeeeik: , The measure therefore now puf forward Tar mak ing the Postal system self-sustaining is restlydesign ed to make the North and Ease austrin the syatem .is the South and Irra. Discontented with having :to pay any portion of the deficit caused by the mire munerntive transportation within its !kits., the Smolt proposes to add the whole of its burdens to the 'fund of the North, fur such is thi effect of Ristrus, pascal charges, which, if this portion• of the 'Union wets. treed from external reoreansibili.ies, would amply jr,s tify reduction to a uniform rate of one cent for the 11 alf ounce. The Senate hill effect:laity entails upon' the ]fiddle and Eastern SIAM!. the entire cos, of the premature expansion of the postal systetu In the sparsely settkd Statm,of the South and W.lt. f As we observe that many u_Demberatic" pa- Demi undertake to make flepablicanisart responsible for the recent ca.•e of amalgamation in tiprford, it sterna only proper to . anent , ort the fact that the father is a Deracersit of the-stmitest sect; and she_ has been reared in her father's family. We might retort upon these editors, that the party witch ells tains the ainalgttmation-promoting institution of slav ery at the. South. may expect to hare the practices if the "Southern aristocracy" it LT/blindly worships and obeys,' followed slat more or less exactness by those whoUie under its intitiences here in the North.

'Yet we have seen how the victim was lionoral in his deatkand although there haVe been not many special testimoni als of respect . for . MI T . Stekres. thee are a great, mbity oflere'd to her husband. Imme diately-after killing hie betrayer, he went, ea ' , it were for ennetuary, to the house of a Cab inet Minister, the :Altnrney G.-neral of the UnitM States, rho !rested him kindly.— From there. eecording to the statement of Mr. Rittg. J. Walker, he Went to the Presi dent's - House—the blond-stained ussa.sair went unmolested to the official mansion of th e head of the goYernmerA; and, tne all that is known to the contrary, was well received. Thence he proceeded to his own house and soon afterArds put himself under arrest.— Ever . since then he has been receiving the highest: honors, se if he.were e mnble, high. minded, virtuous man, who had just commit ted a brave and g enerous deed. Ile holds levees at the jail, and receives visits from Senators Psepresentatiyes, and other govern. ment officials. One story says that among his viisitoru lets been the President of the United States; another that this functionary has only written a 'letter- to express his syn.'. pathy ; either would he disgraceful to the nation. Letters, bouquet4', messages and compliments of all kinds pour in upon the prisoner; and the District antlinhtt.bs, who were not prepared to lodge in proper style a .entleman of so much distinction, are obliged to have a special apartment repairekand fitted up , foe All this is wrong, shocking, shameful,— This'morbid sympathy, for the dead and for the living libertine, seems to indicate n very general demoralization in all eirelesorWash ington society. There has been nobody so honored There for years as is DMA E. Sickles. who is tri be tried in a few days for murder. There has no one died there for years who has been so tenderly talked of and eulogized as Philip Barton Key, who had just been detected in the vilest business that any than can engage - -M. With the last the world ought now ~ to be done,' and it ought to be coon done with Sickles. If his life were in danger there would he some pretext for the extraordinary kindness Amin to.him. Rut it is the most improbable thing in the world that jury will convict him. Washington juries are very tender with Congressional criminals, and in a ease like this there is no thought of a conviction. 'Besides; if convict ed, he would be sure of a pardon from his friend, the President. to whom he flew when he killed his man, and who has shown him so much kindness since his arrest. His life is ,not in the letst. danger. Ile will live long, to give lustre to the New Ynrk „Democracy, of which he is so brilliant an ornament. But just now he is in the position of a criminal, and it -would be no mare thatt decent for the President, the cabinet ministers and the members of Congress to restrain their dem. onstrations of love and sympathy till after he is discharged by regular course of Let them try, and treat him, till after acquit. tel, with indifference, as they would any pont - but virtuous laboring man, white or colored, Who,. in a moment of passion Might have slain his wrong.doer.—Philadelphia tin. - - Common Law Judges.
