WASHINGTON, DEC. is, 1921.
The radicals heae, begin to show themselves,
but they. have met with signal defeat. this
day, in the rejection of Mr.. Canuon's resolu-
tous for reducing the army, &c. which the
House refused to consider, " to SIS. This,
trust, is indicative of the sentiments of the
present Congress, and evinces their deter
mination to maintain the existing institutions
of the county. and, think, with that deter
mination, they win proceed merely to use the
pruning-hook to the crooked and unproduc-
tive branches. The northern delegations are
the main supported Administration. Virginia,
with the other radical States, we hope to
keep iii the minority. New-York, confident
ly hope, will. be found strong, though not
brilliant-notwithstanding the unhappy divis-
ion on the question OF Speaker, there is pros
pecto of our being united on most subjects.

The .Mails.-There is much cornplaint. all
over the country, of carelessness in the Post
olhce department. We received, last week,
on Thursday evening, from Boston, packages
from Washington, which were due by Tues
days and Wednesdays Southern Mail. This
must have been owing to want of care at
the nearest Distributing Office south of this
town, which we believe is at Hartford. Sim

amendments 10 the Constitution. Three.
propositions, it will be seen, have been already,
made at the present session Of Congress, to
amend the Constitution of the United States.
We regret to see so much disposition to lav
hands upon this charter of our rights. Unless
frequent amendments are discountenanced, it
will soon cease to bear any resemblance to
what it once was.
Were it notfor this objection to amendments
generally, we should like that proposed by
MIR. Whitman for establishing an uniform mode
(and that by districts,) of choosing Represent
atives to Congress and Electors of President.
