will observe, and, no doubt, with profound uv

of Messrs. These six
recuunts unaided essrs. Toombs, Stephens,
and Owens, of Georgia, Hilliard of A 1.., and Ca
- bell of Florida. and Moreton of To. Now they
well knew the liberal character of Mr. Winthrop
as a politician, before he was nominated. They
knew that he was opposed by a number of mem.
bersfiom the North usually acting with bet per.
ty, solelybecuse he declined to take as advanc
ed a ponitioh on the Northern side of the slavery
question as they thought he ought to occupy; four
of them, I believe, had:voted for him betok end
yet arcing and knowing all this, they deliberate
ly repudiete his nomination,. and eeparat e from his
and their puty, and act op in opposition to him
a Whig frcim their own potion of the country,
who Ia not pretent, and perhaps will; not be for
weeks. I feel conatnained to say, this seems very
hke declaring that henceforth no man from the
North, must expect their supportas Southern.
Whigs for any office whatever. It is about ae di.
gent, practical, and etlicient 4 a etep towards the ;
dissolutron of the Union as could well be taken.
Bat enough of this for the present, I will merely
add, however, by the way of an illustration of the
petnia,icas tendency of their course, that if the
wholabody of Northern Whip were deliberately
to join the seeeding*Democraut and unite with
them:upcin David Wilmot or James Thompson,
and elect him, they =odd be only Imitating the
example let them by this ill advised band of
• Southern men.
' There were present two hundred and twang
two members, and the number,of absentees were
of coarse eight, of which five were Whigs, name
ly: T. Butler King of Georgia, Gentry of Ten.,
Aistonof Ala., Shepherd of N. C., and Dr. Neu of
Pa. Dr. Nes and Mr. Alston are known to be
• detained by dangerous illness. A. G. Boma of
Mix, and Mr. Hubbard of Ohio, are detained
from their seats OM the part of the Democrats, and
Idr.Julian of It., on that of the Free Sollers. The
Soothe= Mends of Cobb will very probably not
; press thq menu forward with that energy they
' woad otherwise manifest,for the reliant that they
hope to rola) delay, in receiving the accession
of these two member of the party, who are ex.
peeled every day.
The House adjourned atter the fourth ballot,
because it was plainly enough seen by both the
Meads end Free' Soil opponents of Cobb that
nothing mote could be done to advance his eleo
-1
den to day.
The -Spate merely met, bound that forty one
or two of its members were present, and then ad
Pureed to await the organization of the House.

that so important do they consider the accomplish

are waling to give up Cobb,. provided they can
secure the tamers of Forney. It is very certain
that Forney is opposed with greater acrimony by

the candidate for Speaker ia. But the idea Of ihe

What should be the degree or mesaare of the
fedtiction of postage, at this time, is entirely a
Minden In be settled by Congress; but tt is pro•
meth respectfully to submit what would be the
pichable effect of one measure of reduction.
The mom obvious and prominent feature now
in our postage is leadble price, ten cents,
charged on all single s carried aver three
hundred miles. The reduction of this ten cent
postage and charging all dull, letters at eve cents
each, would much amplify the manner of account
lag and render the same both more facile and per
feet—woold remove the dissatisfaction arising
from the great difference in the postage in differ
ent offices, even in the same vicinity, hnt separat

encourage the correspondence and rcourse by
mail between the most distant parts of the country,
which most need and demand it, in precise pro
portion as their other meths of utteroommunms.
don are slow and unfrequent.
The neatioquiry is, what would be the effect of
this reduction on the receipts from postage, and
how would it affect the velum.
It is not pcisaible from any returns or data in the
Department to ascertain with much prechtion the
number of letters poising annually in the mail un
der this charge of ten oenta. Even if the number
of ten cent truer, were actually known, it would
still be impossible to determine how many of them
were ten ant letter. from being double. Thence

ed to the report of the Postmaster General last
year, to wit. $715,187; and that of the first
'Arent, $300,139.
From a careful examination now made of the
data in the Department, It is estimated that the
whole somber of charged letters sent through the
math. the past year was 62 000,000. and of this
number about 15,500.000 were subject to the ten
cent postage on account of distance. If, then, the
redaction were to bring no more letters into,the
mail, the diminution al revenue therefrom, the fire
year, would be $775,000.
It is already shown that the surplus on the fart
day of Jule ls.ll. was $691,652 70, and that on the!
first day of July next will he $655,710 57, whlnh e!
