A CASE IN POINT.

IL State has right to secede, and thereby
to dissolve the Union, so far as she is concerned
-she may exercise it at me time as well as ano.
ther. She NAV exercise II as VOL when there is
no unconstitutional Or oppressive law to com.
plain OF, as when there is. She may exercise
it, when debt Of $50 millions hangs over the
federal government. incurred BY just war, in
defence Of the national rights, and thus get rid
Of her quota Of that debt, as well as when the
nation has an overfowing treasury. She may
exercise il in time of war as well as peace, and
even turn upon her sister States the very forti6
cations erected for the general defence. Is such
doctrine admissbIes-Lynchburg TTginian.
This IS hitting the nail on the head and send.
ing it home. There is no getting over plain,
practical. common sense. All the sophisms in
the world cannot controvert mailer Of fact.

NEW NAIL ARRANGEMENT.

We have the pleasure TO announce that our in
aefatioabIe Post Master General has completed
several mail arrangements, for the purpose OF
exprditing the mail between New York and Phi
ladelphia, during the winter season.
Immediately on the arrival OF the Southern
mail in this city at IL or IL o'clock IN the morn
ing, an express mail is despatched with the con.
tents 10 New York, which will arrive If that CT
" in about six hours after leaving Philadeiphia.
Col. Reside put his horses on the line lew
DAYS ago, and the first mail to New York was
transported by this route yesterday.
This arrangement will render nugatory the dat
IL expresses started recently By the New York
journals, and save them from vast expenditure
Of money. II will place in the hand. Of mer.
chants in New York their commercial cores.
oondence south of Philadelphia, one whole night
earlier than by the present arrangement.
Another Improvement for the benefit OF Phila-
Jelphia. 10 the establishment, also, OF an express
mail. TO start from New York Immediately alter
the arrival of the eastern mail IN that city, and
to come ON here in the period Of six hours. The
eastern malt reaches New York generally about
noon each day. This arrangement will give Us
in this citv, our eastern and New York letters
and papers about six or seven O'Clock the same
day, a saving over the present arrangement Of
nearly a whole night. The express will com.
mence, on this line, in day or two. and will
continue during the session Of Congress.
We understand further, that plan is prepar.
ing to expedite the mail from Baltimore to Phi
ladelphia, during the closing of the Delaware
and Chesapeake navigation. At present, the
great Southern Mail requires nearly whole day
TO come overland from Baltimore to this city
By the contemplated arrangement, it is expected
that the Washington mail, which reaches Balti.
more about noon or earlier, will be transported to
this cisv in about twelve hours.
An these improvements, and projected in
provemeuts, are highly important to the commu :
nity, and reflect great honor on the Post Office
Department. - Pennsylvania
