There may be a small deficit the succeeding year; but if Congress would abol-1 i s h the franking _privilege entirely at. thesp- I proaching session, there would be none.

The five cents rate will meet, at , the end of 4 years, if Oregon and California do not consume more than $lOO,OOO over and above their receipts, the expenditures of the' department, when, perhaps, a further reduc tion can be made to three cents; agreeably to Senator Niles' project. The receipts of the de partment, for the quarter ending 31st October last, show an increase of a little over 14 per cent., compared with the corresponding quar ter of last year; but about laird this increase, it is supposed, will have lo be paid toGreat ,Britain, under the Postal Treaty, upon the set tlement of last quarterly accounts with that government, as the department will fall con siderably into debt.

It was their ocvn look-out that the notes were stolen ; and not the public's or note holders. The fact of the Chester County Bank refus ing to redeem its notes,•on the ground of their having been ri part of the stolen' batch, has-seri ously effectedthe credit of the bank, and West ward it is reported as having entirely. This of course is not the fact. Let no one be alarmed, or sacrifice a dollar of the money, the bank is bound to redeem them, or else down with the concern. Both old 'and new notes are rejected by some of the business men in this sec:ion. If the bank persists in not redeem= ing the old issue let the community refuse ev ery dollar. Let no one part With them at the sacrifice of a cent, but drive them home, old and new, and let the bank make the best of them. The community should not pay for the carelessness or accidents of the bank's agents. From the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin we learn, that on Saturday morning about 9 o'clock,. the office of the Agency of the State Bank at Camden, N. Jersey, No. If: Church Alley, was entered by means of false keys, and rubbed of five thousand two hundred and eighteen dol lars. The office is in the second story room of the building, , and the robber or robbers opened the front door below at the foot of the stairway, and also the door entering into the office room. The money consisted !principal ly of the notes of the Camden Bank of small andlarge denominations, there being in the amount, duce or four of five hundred dollars. ft was taken out of an iron chest standing near the desk of the Agent. The sum taken had been deposited there but a slant time before by the Agent, who, as his usual custom is, af ter bringing the funds limn the Bank;Proceed ed to make his exchanges withlfanks in the city. Ile Was absent only about thirty min utes, during which time fhb robbery•was. per petrated. A reward of *5OO is offered for the detection of the robber. CVThe Philadelphia North American of Tuesday says: The Camden Dank, since the late rubbery, has been enabled to withdraw from circulation all itA ales of $5OO except six, which ale numbered as follows:-155, 118, 198, 303, 214 and 219; four of which, it is believed, were stolen. And it is also ascertained that about $2OOO of the amount stolen Was in nutes of the denominations of $5O and $lOO dated January Ist, 1846, and much defaced by use. • A Mob Quelled by Prayer The Pittsburg Gazette relates the following incident, as received from the late Sheriti of the county, Mr. Forsyth. -11tobs have been quelled sometimes by discharges of musketry, but we never before heard of ene subdued by prayer. Pittsburg mobs must be more reverent than those of sutne other quarters: Some time in the course of the past year, he. Mr. Forsyth,'was called upon to exercise his au thority for the suppression of a large disorderly meeting, somewhere in the stibtaW of the city. At the time of his arrival on the' ground there was every manifestation of an imMediate and violent outbreak, and while he was deliberating about his duty in the premises, he waaapPrOach ed by the Rev.

Mr. Remington's aerial bridge, if all the Courier states be true. is just the thing to span the EaSt River and connect New York and Brooklyn. may he remembered that about six months since Mr. Remington and his seltsupporting bridge were the subjects of extend and cominen. datory notice. in the English papers, extraeas from which were published about that tithe in the United States.. This gentleman has recently arrived in this , city, and 'has erected in the bar room of Bank's Arcade, for' public inspection, a , model of his wonderful bridge. 'lt is,undoubied ly an extraordinary result of mechanical genius. The first impression on seeing.it is, that it is"! constructed on principles, hitherto unknown to the student of natural philosophy. It certainly appears to set the laws of gravitation at defianCe. It extends across the bar4oom, 'a space of nine ty-six feet, and is elevated some ten feet from the thior. Its appearanCe is so fragile, that few men, judging from 'this alone, would willingly , trust themselves upon if. Yet while there a number of spectators, ire saw ten gentlemen all together on the centre of this bridge. It will be noticed that it has no support from the ground. Its resistance as .well to graviation as to. the pressure of so manY•persons, being secured by the principles on which it is constructed. Yet notwithstanding this great weight,, its deflexure was very inconsiderable. • , ..Front a memoradnin handed to us by Reming ton, it appears, that 'the bridge has a span of 00 feet. • This *ice is crossed by Conf• longitudinal supportets, each less than one, inch "e at the centre, but increasing.gradmilly in size, until at the ends or pointspf fastening, they are 2t, Inches square. The bridge has one catenary and two parabolic curves, by which strength.and beauty are both secured. 'rite flooring is attached.diai, iotiallY; and is , made to sustain a portion of the strain. •The deflexion of the supporters is •22} inches. Ir is capable of hearing the pressure of seven tons; while each of the'supporters, °Ceti pying their place .in the bridge, will sustain a weight greater than the absolute strength pf the timber and the direct cohesion of its fibres. Remington states, dial if one of his bridg. es were cut through transversly at the centre, the parts severed would neither sink,nor :tomato so much as to•render. it impassabie. Re informs us, besides, that a bridge ,on this principle. eoujd be made to span a space of a mile and a Half.. . ,• ' Lamarlitic.-4 letter from EonstaatiooOle, ted.sth October, states tttatt . ltepoitu, has ran= ted to M.. de 14itteactillet :grPi9jVnllY• menak trltct . country; '41 . ;1 IcitilP Mike of I,3;styrna, tprnv ingisrt of the dot:alias of die crown and which , Is sa;di'Laatartiap will make fits iesidepce Iry the; course of 111.1 »iu 4- t!Prina• : , 1 MEM :~~ M=lM=ll =l4ll • • :' Sitik 1 ::".'•;: , ;(:'.4.'•;.i. 7 . .i'.,..-', l .:',': . . • -,4‘..t" obi atifetitratt -- .' ..'" itiro4 , W, --Adatis.,Ariaottv,, ... . ,oum. .: ~-..,,....wv,,A.4, r 07i110,riii,1izi,-,, : -, : t for),-6 . # 401it,stenincil.pitiNni0;0::: ; V l :.Altlift *Oirgleff*l4k;:ifitipi;k 41"04#114 ' 1, t iiii4,40.4 . -; .VPIi ' iioni6 6 Ai-` tr i t :, tiirrO.iran..4r . triyo:# ~'fife;:iilkiiii ~,,' (o,liii,sitck } o : ,.i.# . bit'i 4 : l . l :t 4 4l 6 .' 6. **e . ports Aclge rikokt r P 4 s llo P , thol!'''ilatt-WeAilo , o3' will Kiliga tn bk, , ,eitigafriledi ," r. .

A thunder from the west approached the spacious powder magazine at Galgunburg. A brilliant ilash'of lightning took place, accompanied by such a dreadful crash o 1 thunder that the sentinel was stupifietLand.was for a time senseless. Some laborers employed at the works of the fortress, about two hundred and fifty paces from the mag. azine, saw the lightning issue from the cloud, and strike the point of the conductor. This case of successful protection forms a remarkable con trast with many well-known casse in which the most appalling disaster have been caused by a neglect to furnish conductors to magazines. In • August, 1767, a large. quantity of gunpowder Belonging to the Republic of Venice, had been, deposited in the vaults of the church of St. Naz. Mr, at Brescia. The tower of the church was struck With lightning, ; the' electric fluid descen ded to the vaults and exploded above two hon. ' fired and seven thousands six hundred pounds of gunpowder! About three thousand persons 'per ished by this catastrophe, and nearly one sixth of the fine city of Brescia was destroyed.
