New York PosT OFFIcE.-We mentioned on
Monday by mistake, that porter IN the once
of the New York Journal of Commerce had
been caught in stealing and selling newspapers
II was clerk or attendant in the New orK
Post Office that was thus detected. The Courier
and Enquirer contains a report OF his eXamlna-

milar fraud has for long time been practiced
in that post office, to a very considerable daily
amount
The witness, who purchased the newspapers
of the prisoner, depnsed that he had al one ume
purchased Of him ZOO, at p cents per hundred.
The last purchase was made on Tuesday OF last
week when he bought 800. Most OF the papers
had wrappers on them, and directions "hich

PoErIcAL JusrcE.-Some weeks ago me Glooe
in its demoniac malice, upon the authority OF
some insignificant print, ascribed some beautl-
full lines Of poetry, from the pen OF Mr.. Wilde
of Georgia. to some unknown and imaginary
poet called o'Kelly, oflreland. The poetry was
admitted To be in line taste, when it could be
imputed to the Irish Bard O'Kelly, who was I'M
hi that time unknown to fame. The claim of
O'Kelly was exposed, on the authority of a dis
.tinGuished gentleman, who From his intimacy
With Mr.. Wilde, when it was written, twenty
years ago. remembered all the circumstances;

GREAT TOBACCO Factory IN MExco.- About
mile to the west of the city (says a Mexican
Correspondent Of the Albany Daily Advertiser,)
is the great mandatory of Cigars and Tobacco
warehouses, which is a Government monopoly
producing d revenue of about six million of dol
lars per annum; from five to six thousand per-
sons are employed here in making cigars, the
greater portion of whom also reside within the
walls The buildings are of red brick, two sto
ries high, covering an area Of six square acres
and we'll supplied with water by branch run
ming from the acqueduct of Chepotepc: the ma
tional Estauquillo or store for the sale of cigars
by wholesale is nearly in the centre of the city,
to which from the mandatory 300 mules are
constantly conveying the cigars packed in bun
dies of 1000 or in large boxes holding $4,000.
or 6 fthese large boxes are not at all an uncom-
mon purchase by the retailers in the different
parts of the city and neighboring villages; while
the Estanaulos Of the other great cities in the
republic often send their orders for or 300 box
es, making full cargo for set of Arrieros.-
sub is the universal love of the cigar that it is
far more thought of and greater luxury than
the daily food.

The effect of Mr.. Secretary Weodbuy's re-
ioinder to President Biddle, is not quite so hap
DIV as the Globe & Co. have wished and antici-
pated Even the New York Evening Post, the
6ercest and most ferocious of administration
centurions, says oft
-" II is not peculiarly happy, in point of STYLE
and abounds with sarcastic illusions which
might have been left without any dimnution OF
tine dignity which so important department
Of the Government as that over which he pre-
sides ought to maintain. There is not word
said by Mr. Woodbury. which those against
whom it is levelled, do not richly deserve, but it
would have been better omitted by him.
We do not, perceive, indeed, that there was any
occasion for tine Secretary Of the Treasury to
reply at all to Mr.. Biddle's gasconadeing letter."

Jury. afer trial of eight days, returned their
verdict on the 9th inst in the Caveat case Of T.
Chad!er's wl-by which twenty thousand dol
lars were devised to educate colourcd children,
that there was no will.-The ground on which
the Jury rendered the will nugatory was, that
ofundue influence, and departure by The scrIv-

instruction furnished by the testator. The trial
was of considerable nteres and rendered more
so as tho argument, on behalf Of the Caveators
