the cause than most of them, has left them on
the Texas question, and told me to-day that if

The Philadelphia Inquirer says that a
= company has been formed with the object
of establishing lines for the transmission
OF letters at cheap rates of postage through
out all parts of the Union. 1t Is propos-
cd that the highest rate for single letters,
not weighing more than half an ounce
shall be six and a quarter cents to any
part of the country, while envelopes will
be sold at lower rate-twenty or more
for a dollar. The persons engaged in
this enterprise contend that the laws of

unconstitutional, and they are anxious to
have them tested on the point as speedily
as possible. Lysandcr Spooncr, Esq,
