Governor Seward hat assured acme New

to inquire whether they could engage io some

by war, that peace wjb, and would be, the
watchword of the Administration. Bellige

will Cud the rocruiting office of tbe Southern
Confederacy open in Baltimore, and tbey
must certainly prefer fighting tbe Mexicans
to fighting their countrymen.
It is very evident that a pretty clean sweep
is to be made of the brawling Secessionists
who have been in office here, and who have
odeavored to fouiuul the existing difficul
ties. Yet there are Dot nearly as many
applicants for tbe office now as tbere were

Washington, March 11 The silver tones
of the trumpet of peace, announcing that
there is to be no immediate conflict between
those who have a common ancestry, and wbo
nntil recently were citizens of a common
eountry, have echoed joyously in many a
heart here. The Gery Secessionists and tbe
ultra Abolitionists are evidently annoyed at
tbe removul of a subject of contention, wblcb
tbey have hoped would "precipitate" tbe two
sections into a conflict. Each of these dis
cordant elementa of our common country
hoped for warfare, for bloodshed, for tbe
killiug, maiming or wounding of hundreds,
bringing desolation to many a home, and
engendering feelinga of bitterness, of hatred,
of uialignauey, where there should be fraternul
love.

Some material changes and improvements In
the postal service have been authorised by an
act of the late Congress. The st-cond section
of ths act empowera the Postmaster General
to procure and furnish letter sheets, with
postage stamps impressed thereon, combining
io one both a sheet and an envelope. This
supplies a desideratum io certain busines and
legal proceedings where it ia important to
prove tbe date of mailing of a letter by the
postmark.
Another ecclioo of the act requires that
letters which have been advertised (ball be
returned to tbe Post Office Department, if
ncclaimod, lico months after the date of tbe
advertisement ; except in cases where letters
are directed to seaports for persons on board
of designated vessels expected to arrive ; and
also, in cases where letters are specially
marked to be retained for a longer period.

sion of tbe border States to suy coercive

Department to remove every obstacle that
might lead to a collision, believing that time
will more effectually accomplish the object
of bringiug back tho revolting States than

Judge Douglas has cerlaiuly vindicated his
character for courage and genius iu the course
ho has taken iu tbe debate upon President
Lincoln s inaugural. 1 have never known one
or IwoMiort speeches create as much discus
sion as those which fell from his lips on this
subject ou the 6th aod lib lost. Tbe lale
Administration or Disunion men declare that
by putting a favoruble and peaceful construe
tlun opon the inaugural, bn bss thereby
provod that he bad entered into a league with
Mr. Lincoln before tba election, and that he
is fulullmg the bargain. Tbe ultra Republ
cans denounce his utterances on ibe inaugural
us the giving of uousked-for advice, and more
than one does not besitutu to suy tbat he has
assumed to speak without authority for the
l liiel Magistrate. JJut between these ex
tremes again are te be found an immense
number ot conservative citizens, who hail and
appluud his speeches as evidence of charac
teristic magnanimity and manliness. 1 have
in my possession, at this present writing,
twenty letters received from Democrats and
Republicans in Pennsylvania, in which tbe
warmest commendations are conferred upon
Douulus on account of these speeches What
struck me as worthy of remembrance, bow
ever, was tbe studied silence observed by tbe
11. puolicuo senators while ne was conducting
j
'UH debate against Wigfoll and Mason
Here was tbe leading opponent ol Abraham
Lincolu in tbe late campaigu holding up tbe
inaugural of tbe new President as a pledge of
peace, declaring his purpose to overlook all
party feeling, to sunder all party ties, if Mr
Lincolu would avoid a precipitate resort to
violence. Here were the men who opposed
both Lincoln and Donglas in thut campaign,
and who insisted tbal Mr. Lincoln meant
violence iu his message, finding themselves
triumphantly confuted and confounded at
every step by the "Little Giant." Tbe Re
publicau Senators, struck witb tbe masterly
ability of Douglas, impressed by tbe clear and
conclusive analysis be presented of tbe inau
gural, hesitated about approving his theory,
and yet restrained from condemning it, be
cause the lutare might show tbal be was
