DEAR SIR =
We notice in your paper of Monday, an article on
subject of Postmaster General Wickliffe's new ar.
rangement tor running government Express Mail
from New York north to Albany, from thence west
ward to Buffalo. So far as the Postmaster General
concerned in protecting the of the depart
nent under his CHARGE it is his duty TO do so for
he additional time the mails to be kept open,
our nrevlous arrangements will doubtless afford to
he public generally many convenlences, tor which
he government will be fully remunerated by rea-
onable increase of the revenue, and here the gov
arnment should stop; but il will be readily observed
hat the object of expedition of the mails, conve-
nlence and security to the public, are but moiety
If the operations intended to be performed by this
United Stltes Express Mall" for instance similar
arrangements have been entered into between the
Postmaster General and the Messrs. Harnden Il Co.
tcrun an Express Mail from New York to Boston.
They, are now doing regular package ex,
ress" bushes between the points above named
m their own hook" by and with the facili
les afforded through the means of this "Expres,
NAIL and exclusively at the expense of the govern
nent, the Post Office Department being charged for
he salaries and travelling fares OF the sworn mes
engers who are to accompany each express

Messrs Harnden Il Co. as their special messengers

ii to prescribe, and in such manner as they shall
eem proper, thus making the general government
common carriers" and at once openly and di
city interfering with individual enterprise n,
ne Will tor moment contend, that the Messrs
ADAMS 4 Co whU are now prosecuting credtabl
themselves, Gf not equally prohTably SOY a regn
ar package express business between New York an
,oston; that they can contend against Harnden e.
20. in the same line of business, although the for
ner should receive twice the price charged by the
after. Messrs Adams 81 Co. have to pay their own
messengers salaries with their cost for travelling.
while Harnden Il Co. under the United States Elk.

look," under the authority Of special directions
yiven their own messengers. All will agree that as
ir as the mails are concerned, the new arrange
nent is good one but that any other business
hould be connected Herewith to benefit individuals
L the expense of the government, is clearly wrong
md should meet with that contempt it most justl,
deserves, as it most assuredly will do when once
properly understood. The general government
doubtless, have no such powers granted to them,
and II is an attempt to cripple individual enterprise
atthe expense and under the atronage of the gov
eminent, benefitting the few at the expense of the
many. MANY READERS

Important from NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. re

Important from MISUNDERSTANDING re-
Peace War.
We received last evening highly important intel.
Agence from Washington, indicating that the new
treaty with England will probably be rejected by the
Senate of the United States, and that the whole OF
our commercial relations with that power will be
thrown open to the winds of the wide ocean.
The PRONUNCIATION Of the fact that treaty for
the settlement OF the Boundary had been success
fully made by the American Executive and the
British Plenipoentiary. had created great excite
ment among the political circles Of Washington
We are informed, on what we conceive TO be com
petent authority, that the ,tras Of the Senate acM
form coalition end reject the treaty by rerv con-
siderable majority. This treaty, it will be recol
lected, is nearly the same which grew out of the
award of the King of the Netherlands If there is
any difference, the terms are not deemed so favor
able as that was. That treaty was rejected by the
Senate during the Presidency of General Jackson
- the wing party, then in the minority, being the
principal opponents of it's passage We are now in.
formed positively, that the democratic Senator's
particularly those in favor of Mr.. Van Buren---are
already out in opposition to the treaty, denouncng
1t anti-national and anti-Amarican. Mr. Silas
Wright and Mr. Buchanan are probably both of this
opinion. On the other side it is also stated that
Mr. Mangum, and those who act with him intend
10 assume similar position caucus or consulta-
ton was however, 10 be held on Monday morning
10 determine what line of conduct they would adopt
The chances We're that the ultra wings would as
sumo the same grounds as the ultra locofocos had
and that the Treaty would be rejected by a large
vote.
This intelligence may be relied upon. 1t is OBJ
vious therefore ,.that our relations with England are
in more tcklish condition than they have been for
a quarter of century past We assured thai, on
the rejection of the treaty, Lord Ashburon will i'm
mediately return home in the Warspte, and Mr..
Fox will demand his passports and follow him
In that event, the commercial relations OF the
country will be left deenceess-entlrely at the ten
der mercies of the British governments govern
ment welded by that party which have always
shewn the most prompt and decided action in all
International affairs. If war should break out at
any moment after this state of things is upon u.s. it
ought not 10 surprise us. We must be prepared to
meet the naughty tory government, in the frsi
cbulton OF passion.
We verify believe that we are within six months
of with England, and we desire every reader
to ponder over the events that have Just taken
place, and say if they do not think as we do At
all events let us prepare. The United States Senate

proceedings ofthe Common Council are beginning
to be as interesting those of Congress, and both
Did fair to have like character for business.
Last night the Mayor, who is pluck to the back
bone and BIT further, gave the Corporation two
beautiful vetos to digest this week. The first veto
was message the power of appointing the City
Watchmen. This is long and elaborate document,
and was ordered to be published Exclusively in the
"Amercan,"a paper of about 900 circulation, to be
paid for as an advertisement in order to help that
sinking concern out Of the mud-also probably be-
cause few will see the Mayors reasons. The "Tri-
bune," with circulation nearly equalto allthewhig
Clique papers, is prosecuted. Good! The other veto
was on the power of appointing the FIRST Marshall.
Good again.
Thus then fun begins. We shall watch and re-
port progress accurately. We are above all parties
nigh and dry on the fence, and will do Justice 10
all.

HEALTH or THE CIrY-CAsEs OF SPAsMopIc CHo-
LERA BROKEN OJT-We have heard from undoubt-
I'd sources Of two questionable of this fala
disease, which within the lat three days have &C.
cured in the practice Of Dr. King, of PSI Hudson
street and which have been under his immediate
care Several OF our city physicians have visited
ihese cases. The first, that of Mr. Logan, OF s.
King street, has happily, by the greatest exertion
and care, terminated favorably; but at our last ac
counts that OF the second, J. w Watson, y King
street, appeared TO resist all medical aid, and but
talnt hope existed for his recovery
These two cases occurred in houses nearly oppo-
ste and without wishing to raise alarm at the spor
taneous appearance o! this fatal disease, we woud
solely and lmperatvely urge on the city authorize,
not to delay an instant in seeing to the cleansing tn
str' cts IN the above vicinity. Throughout the pre-.
sent simmer, the weather has been uncommon,
varable-hot to-day, cold to-morrow-dry to-day
wet to moTow-and sometimes all together in tn
compass OF one day Add to these natural causes
The city never has been so dirty-he streets nevel
50 unclean and filthy. ltwould be almost a miracle
If we escape some fatal con,agion. In our own i'm
mediate neighborhood, we ara happy TO observe
that the streets have been put into state of grea,
cleanliness. For this we are indebted TO the efforts
of that well known ward officer, honest Jack Hill
Esq, who really seems to be the only man in the
lower part of the city who understands his business
He is the prince of Street Inspectors. In the mean
time. we would advise all persons to be berry careful
Of what they eat and drink. Pure, limped, virgin
cold water, in spite Of all that Tom Marshall has
said OF its virtues is very dangerous article in these
days. Moderation in all things is the golden rule
