reduction Of postage
In a country where
every farlhing that
can be raised by tax

ment, the postage

over the kingdom to

able proof that the
revenue would be as
great by a low as a
high rate of postage
1t is as important
to our people as it is
to the English that
there should be the
cheapest possible
communication thro'
the 1nails-for the
purposes of business
and for the sake
of humanity and vir-
tue. Our condition
is, however. differ
ent, owing to the
great extent of the

however, the post
age of England ca
be reduced to- a pen
ny without regard
to distance. is it not
probable that ours
can b. reduced to
two cents, five cents
and ten cents, accor-
ding to the distance
which the mail has
to be carried? The
advantages of such
a reduction are ap-
parent to every man,
woman, and hid

hood.
There is but one
way to get it down,
md that is to send in

The Toronto PARROT scouts at our idea
Of reducing the military, md making the
reduction practicable by yielding to the
wishes of majority of the people. # has
a much better plan to propose, as follows:
There is a far more efec,ual way of re-
ducing the expense of these colonies than
to withdraw the present establishment;
which is, to expel all the Yankee loafers,
increase the military establishment TO 50,-
900 British soldiers, set $4,000 Indians
in battle array, collect a we'll disciplined
force of West India regiments, ready to
penetrate into the seat of slavery; Ilace a
powerful navy of ships Of the line and
steamers to threaten the Atlantic cities,
and then demand indemnity for the past
and security for the future; and if they
be denied TAKE THEM. After this, let
England plant OH the soil Of anada a mil
lion Of her trustiest subjects--and then she
may with safety withdraw her army.
This would doubtless prove an admira-,,
bic method of diminishing the expenses.

From the Louisville Journal:

Nv. P. HARR1S-THE DEFAULTER.
The lands of w. r. HARRIs, Of Missis-
sissippi. a defaulter to- the amonntof $780,
0s0, were lately levied upon They were
estimated at sac, 900, and sold at $500. a
loss of $4,000 A loco foco friend be-
came the purchaser; Of course the lands
went back Instantly into Harris posses
sion. The, pretended sale was mere
maneuvre of the Administrations to enable
the .defaulter to compromise his debt Of
SEC, 900 for $500.
We really doubt whether the whole iisto-
.ry Of the political world, taken from begin
ming to end, presents another case of Gov
ernlncnt corruption SO open, SO palpable,
so fragrant, so shameless, as this case OF
w. P. tiarris. This man was appointed
Receiver Of the Public sonies in Missis.
sippi, and, as his situation gave him the
best possible opportunity of specializing in
the public lands he immedi tely began to
apply the funds in his keeping to that OBJ
ect. The Government knew that he was
stealing the public money, but still he was
no, removed. The Secretary Of the Trea-
sury addressed to him eighteen or twenty
letters, begging him, in obsequions terms,
to pay up the amount Of his defalcations,
yet still he was permitted to retain his Of
fee for more than year after the discoy
cry of his defalcations; and, during the
whole of that time, he continued to make
an active use Of his fingers, clutchmg the
public money as fast as it c me into his
custody and expending it in the purchase
oflands, until his Indebtedness to the Gov
eminent amounted to 100000. Even
then he was not turned out of office, but
suffered to resign, in the full and quiet
possession of his spoils. Subsequently
his broad lands; purchased with the stolen
money, were advertised for sale by Gov
eminent to pay the amount Of his defalca-
tons, and the sequel is stated above The
matter has been so managed, that his lands
in pursuance Of the Government advertise
ment, have been sold for $500 to his con-
fidential friend, or, in other words, to him
self, and now he will be able, after pay
ing that paltry sum, to revel he a prince
in the enjoyment Of hisvast possessions.
Are not such things enough TO Gil the
heart ofevery high minded American with
rage and indignation and shame!
1t really seems as if the payment Of an
Indian annuity could not be made with
cut being marked by some act Of rascality.
If thos engaged i'll making the payment
can cheat in one way. they will in an
other. The last Green b y Democrat
says:
Upwards of sixty thousand FIVE. franc
pieces were paid out here during the late
payment Of the Menominees for dollars
The principal sufferers by this beautiful
operation are our merchants, they being
to take these pieces for more
than their worth from the Indians. Who
are the principal gamers remains to be
seen We trust the proper depai tment of!
