LETTER POSTAGE.

The N. Y. Journal of Commerce announces the highly gratifying fact that the consultation at Wash ington in relation to reduction of postage, has re- gle letter at TEN GENTS. All letters of Heads of De. paFtmenSs and Members of Congress, to be charged to Government aHd Post Masters only are to be d. lowed the fTanking privilege in matters relating ex- clusively to their official business. This reform is little more like what the people demand, than the sug. gestiOn of the Post Master General that we published last week. No doubt, if it is adopted, the Revenue of :he Department will be doubled in less than five years-and Q further reduction a uniform postage of FIVE CENTS be called for: Certain are, that Congress cannot do either the people the Depart ment more permanent service, than by carrying the proposed plan into immediate operation.
 &r The Sag Harbor l.. I.l Corrector, says: The Post Master Generals Report to Congress on the re- dWco1 Of letter postage has tOered the postage from this place to New York city, from l9 l2 to IS cents

This s reduction ascending IA "pre.ty how dye do,' truly!
 MT. EDITOR; It appears that our last Locofoco Legislature went at great lengths in supplying them- selves and families with nice and expensive articles Ut the expense of the people. The penknives alone cost one hundred nineteen dollars and twenty-five cents. Besides this, they took large lots of Letter stamps, Ivory paper. folders, Penclcases-and they even went 90 far as to take Drawing Pencils and Clothes Bruhes- and it seems that His Excellsncy Gov Cleveland, took at the expense of the people, bunch of SDans quills, which cost cents each- and an elegant cut-gass Inkstand which cost $50 And also that our worthy Lieut.. Governor Holabird took among other things, two four bladsd Penknves at the peoples expense, at $2 each.
 What can this be called but offering It is petty laceny! and my word it, wl! not be submitted to by the people of Connecticut. They ought not to submit to it. The people will wake up, and spurn from office those petty Pilferers.
