existing arrangemenl for carrying the msll between
New York and Albany. Here we are Saturday IN
the afternoon. with nothing later from New York,
by mail, than Monday morning papers. Thursday
afternoon, forty eight hours ago, we received by
Pomeroy IL Co.'S express, New York papers of Tues
day The Albany papers OF Thursday, which came
hand last evening, contain extracts from the New
York prints of Wednesday; ard even IN the Boston
papers find later New York news than hH
reached us by mail. Our news from Washington,
via Pitisourg, Is later than by the New York mail.

between the commercial emporium and The whole oil
the great region west OF Albany unsafe and uncertain,
deranges all business operation, and unless the evil
speedily remedied all business men, will, from the
necessity OF the case, law no law, manage 10 con-

have been pretty full one, there having been poll
