THE MAILS.--COMPLAINTs.

What violence is done to truth and justice
under the influence Of the perverse spirit Of
fault finding! writer in a Philadelphia pa
per, mountaineering upon the Postmaster Gen
eral, alleges that the Washington mail for Phi
ladephia lies over at Baltimore 13 l-2 hours !;
when every one knows that it goes from the one
city to the other as speedily as steam can take
it,-leaving the former Place at in the morn
ing and arriving at the latter by 3, or p. M,
the same day. Again-he says, there is de-
tenton at New York of the Southern mail go
ing east, of II hours when every body knows
that arriving at New York at midnight, it de-
parts east the next morning by the first line of
boats, which leave at 6 or 7 A. M.
What the writer had in his mind was the fol-
lowing fact; a full statement of which, howev-
err, could not be made consistently with the
spirit Of finding fault with the Postmaster Gen
eral. OF late, the mail from the South reaches
Washington in time to go on the same day by
the evening train Of cars to Baltimore, and there
it remains, till taken on the next morning by
the great Washington ail,-because there is
no boat or car leaving Baltimore so late as at
night, and because it Is impossible Tor the Post
master General to procure conveyance at that
hour by steamboat or railroad. Impossible, be-
cause illegal, 10 obtain it on the terms on which
it can be effected, namely, by increasing the
pay of the Railroad Company to over 500 a
mile per annum, when The act of Congress of
1889 expressly forbids him from giving more
than $500.
We understand the Postmaster General is
very DESTROYS to change the running of the great
lines between Washington and New York, so
as to quicken the movement of the Southern
mail through Baltimore and to connect closely
at New York with the eastern afternoon boats.
Formerly the mandate Of the Head of the De-
partment was alone sufficient for such purpose.
But now power occupies the great thorough
fares Of the country which must be negotiated
with, not commanded. The departures and ar
rivals are arranged by the railroad companies
on their several roads, at hours most locally ad-
vantageous, with reference to travel and the in
terests Of the cities at the ends of the route, and
so as TO avoid running through the night. And
the efforts of the Postmaster General 10 change
them on any one or more of the roads, so as to
obvate delays at any point or give greater dis
patch between distant regions, are nullifed by
demands for compensation which the law will
not allow him to give.

Territory Of Florida. The Committee Of Elec-
tons have reported that he is not entitled to the
seal, being disqualified by the fact that he is
an alien, having been born subject of Den
mark, aud never having been naturalized in the
United States. His case certainly seems hard
because, until quite recently, he supposed on
reasonable grounds that his family had become
na'uralized by removing into Florida within a
few days of its cesson to our government He
does not deny that as the evidence now stands
before the committee, their decision is just, but
he earnestly asks for a postponement of the case
till December, in the hope of obtaining new tes-
tmony which may substantate his claim to oi
tzenship and TO a seat in Congress. A resolu-
ton TO that effect is now pending, the House
having adjourned without taking the question.

Such amounts of money, judcously applied
by the several States, cannot but be productive
of great good. But if njudiciously used, as
was the surplus by some of the States, it would
be positive evil. If appropriated to the inte
rests of liberty, humanity, and civilization; to
education, to internal improvements, or if il will
contribute any thing to that movement Of the
age" in the result Of which Mr.. Rayner so rap
turusly sees the redemption of the world from
"the grasp of despotsm and decay" then in

bencficence, and those who contributed to the

glory with which it will cover them
