NEW YEARS DAY.

ltisan old aud prevalent superstition thatevents
and feelings of this day are indicative OF all
those which are TO befall through the year.
Most OF our happiness consisting rather in hope
than in enjoyment, we are not disposed TO fall out
with belief which congresses, by anticipation,
so much content into one day that is ordina-
rly one of hilarity If the doctrine of the SUI
perstitlon be true, there is much happiness in
store, during the coming year, for large num-
Der. We feel inclined TO date on this idea, but
perhaps the subject may fit in with the other to-
pics which fill our journal but we could not
help INDUCING in many reflections 10 which ii
gave rise during our visit to the Presidential
mansion, on the first day Of the year. We
have not witnessed on the occasion, FOR many
years, so large a crowd congregated TO greet a
Chief Magistrate nor havewe often seen assem-
bled, in any one mass, so many happy faces. If
these are prospective Of the speedy advent OF
general prosperity and content, we may learn TO
forget past disasters, though prudence must tell
us not TO lose sight Of the causes in which they
have originated.
But this we feel TO be no place TO indulge in
political speculation. Nor is our present humor
such as tends to lead 10 it. We are not too old
to sympathise with the feelings Of the young,
nor do we think our susceptbities so indurated
as TO be insensible TO the enJoyments of others.
We were really gratifed at the scene around Us
we beheld the young and beautiful, the aged
and matronly- all showing countenances beam
ing with pleasure, eagerly pressing forward to
greet the President Of the People. We saw
the dashing dweller Of the city, in fashionable
array, and the hardy farmer, proud of his home
spun costume-all welcomed, as they should be,
with couresy-though we thought the warmer
graduation was extended to the true citizen-the
industrious yeomen. Truly the President had
reason to be proud of his immense concourse Of
happy vlsters But as an eminent Senator
lookng~reand on the crowd obseryed-the peo-
pie lriH flock 10 see their own President

sound and equable currency. We ask the
friends of the two favorite syslems-of the Sub
Treasury, if they reject the scheme proposed to
them in the Exchequer bill, what feasible sub
stitute they have 10 offer, which stands the
chance of adoption? A middle gfound-a con-
secrated field is presented, on which the sincere
ly patriotic of both the contendng parties can
meet in union. And we ask, too, the friends of
the Bank in Congress if they are not prepared for
the good of the country to embrace scheme,
which seems TO have obtained the appreciation
of the people, and which promises, without
any contravention Of the Constitution, to fulfil
the objects which they profess so much ear
nestnsss to see accomplished.

THE STATE OF THE POST OFFICE
DEPARTMENT OF THE PUBLIC
SERVICE.

1t is but too obvious that, wherever else that
found, Mr.. Wicklifle has found no such thing in
his department.
The law imperatively requires all persons in
any way employed in the transportation and care
Of the UnitcdStates mail to be sworn previous
TO their entrance upon their duties.
The following will show what, under his in
structons, is beginning TO be disclosed in refer
ence to this particular requirement of the law:
Extract from G. NJ Hatton, Special Agent of the
Post Office Department.
" have, since my return from Washington, in
sructed Postmasters to know that the mail carriers
have been qualified according to law and on some of
the principal routes found that not one half the dr-
vers had been sworn. This negligence is not confn-
ed to drivers alone, but to the Assistant Posmasers
also am confident that, in the country offices, not
more than two-thrds of the Assistants have been
qualified, and of the larger offices are equally
careless-for upon inquiry at the Cincinnati office,
found two of the individuals employed in that Office
had not taken the oaths."
Another extract from the same Agent dated
CoLUMBus December 81, 1S4l,
" Since you took charge of the Department, have
caught three depredators and recovered small
amount Of money from another.
have also, according to instructions, taken mca-
sures to collect the property of the Department al
different points in my district; and al this office alone
hare collected about three hundred canraS mail bags

One of the weak devices of certain ultra poll
texans at Washington City, is to manufacture
public opinion through the agency of small meet
lngs, composed of violent parsans. These as
semblages are generally called by some obscure
village politician, regardless Of the mass Of the
honest farmers of the country, and in direct OPP
position to the wishes of the main body Of the
people. Resolutions concocted by the master
wire-workers are there introduced, of course
unanimously passed, and then blazoned to the
world as the mighty out-pourng Of public OPT
Mon. Any member of Congress who dares to
evince aught like independence of party tram
mels and caucus dctation, may confidently
look for Instructions, as they are called There
is one gentleman in Congress who appears to
understand and meet these systematic frauds
upon the people with becoming spirit, as will
appear from the following letter of the Hon.
George H Profit.
WAsnINGroN Goth Dec. ls4l.
SIR have received the proceedings Of meeting
composed of some dozen gentlemen Of Boonville, at
which meeting you presided,
Resolutions there passed, instruct me to "advoca e
and vote for Bank Of the United States to operate
per SC over the Union, . &c. And, also instruc,ing
me ITO prepare and support amendment to the
Constitution of the United States which will divest
the President of the veto power" &c.
shall neither advocate nor vote for a Bank of the
United States to operate per over the Union
shall pcither prepare nor support an amendment
ofthe Constitution Of the United Sta'es dycstng the
President Of the veto power.
My reasons will be given on the floor Of the House
