From the New York Herald,


ave have the promise of extensive alterations
in the mail arrangements, by which tho public are
to he greatly benefited. |: is said that Cave
Johnson has been busy empolyed since the 4ih
inst. in the examination Of the old contracts. and
has discovered, what we have always stated. that
Mr.. WickIifIs was the weakest Postmaster General
this country ever had. In Cave Johson we are
now in hopes to find the most energetic and detef'
mined mind that mas YET had control OF the Post
Office Department. 1t is stated that he has ALREADY
r,nha arrangements for the greatest exPeolIlon IN
the mails all over the country. One OF 'hese
orronpemen,s is. that the eastern mail which now
Icnves Boston at 4 o'clock in the afternoon. WILL
loaye that city early in the morning, arrive here
Mt i o'clock in the afternoon, start Immediately
for the south, and reach Washington early the next
morning, thus saving twenty-tour hours IN going
that short distance. Another is, that The southern
mail is to close here at later hour than II no"
does in the afternoon, and arrive IN washington
the next morning. and bo expedited at the same
increased speed through to New Orleans. An
other arrangement is, to save the Two or lhree
bours which have heretofore been lost IN fhiiadei-
pba BY the folly of Mr.. Mlcklltfe, by having Inc
southern mail leave that city at SIX or seven IN
the morning instead Of nine O'Clock, as II no"
does These new and important arrangements
will probably go into effect on the lst Of July next
and be carried out with 'gof.
"There will be no humbug in the matter; 'or'
if we correctly understand Cave Johnson, the con.
tractors will be compelled 10 perform their time
as per agreement or pay .he penalty. They wit
not be permitted to tow brigs en- route, and thus
escape the fines imposed upon them, as was toe
often the case under Mr.. WickIitfe. They wl
be KEEP, within the path of their duty. We shall
,hen have no failure and no complaints"
This is Just what might be expected OF CaSe ,s
Johnson. He has been q terror 10 spendthrii''
and law fellows through all his long political life
Wherever he is, there is energy and economy

Dreadful accident in Ner York-Erploson of
a Bimb--Hre Lire Lost.--The New York papers
of Tuesday. the 25th ult., contain accounts Of a
dreadful accident which took place in that city on
Monday. We copy the following PARTICULARS
from the Tribune:
A most melancholy and heart rending accident
occurred last evening, at the foundry and black.
smith shop of Mr.. Edward DuvaIl, No. lO2
Charlton street. The facts so far as we could
ascertain, were these: Mr.. FISHERMAN, keeper of
the light house at Sandy Hook, has been in the
habit for some time past Of raking the bay around
The Hook, for old iron, &C., which ho brought 10
the city and sold to Mr.. Duvnll, On Saturday
last load was brought 10 Duvall's shop by Mr..
DasteTiIIun, among which was a bomb shell or
petard, about l6 inches in length and 10 in di:
ameter, which Mr.. B. had raked up a few days
before. Yesterday, while Mr.. DuvaIl was remov.
ing the bomb from his shop TO the side walk for
the purpose of weighing it; he discovered that i.
contained powder, and on taking hammer and
striking 1t for the purpose of getting the powder
out. it, exploded and instantly killed Mr.. Duvall.
the owner of the shop. Mr.. Aaron o. Price,
master marson, Of 10 Thompson street, Robert
BroderIck, Of the corner Of Hudson and King
streets, and so injured boy. whose name we could
not learn, that he died in few hours The horse
Of Mr.. Price, from which that gentleman had
ust dIsmonted, was also instantly killed. The
windows in the neighborhood were very much
shattered by the explosion, and piece of the shell
weighing over two pounds was blown to the corner
Of Varlck and Curmine streets, distance Of
nearly four blocks and struck within few feet OF
two children who were playing in the street. II
is believed that this shell, with its contents, must
have been in the place whence it was raked since
the lac. war. Mr.. Duval was n estimabe citizen,
aged about 33, and has left wife and child
Mr. Price was also nightly esteemed, about 40
years of age; and has left wife aud two children.
Broderok was youth Of about II. We do not
learn that the blame is attached to any person.
Mrs. Duvall was thrown into convulsive spasms
by the suddenness of her awful bereavement, and
was for few hours raging maniac. The kind
ness and sympathy of friends and relatives has
however restored her.

The United States and Merico.-The Washing.
ton correspondent of the New York Courier and

it was decided that the withdrawal of Almonte,

Mexican Government was not cause sufficient for

is spoken of as Shannon successor, to whom il will
be suggested that this Government expect his ap-
pIicatlon for leave 10 return."
The Globe thinks that the course of the Mexi-
can minister in relation to Texas. is Of very little
consequence. In protesting against our action,
'he has omitted to state whether he has acted un-
der the instructions OF his Government, or those
of Santa dina. The In.eI|isencer does not cron
intimate that the present Government Of Mexico,
under any circumstances, designed 10 retain the
services of Santa Annals minister These are
important omissions, which may bo speedily sup

Of meeting, in this city yesterday p'orn'ns' with
Mr.. Armstrong. member of the Texan Con-

the 18Th inst. and arrived in New Orleans on
Saturday last He brings Us the most tiatterlng
accounts of the prospect of the acceptance on the
par, of that government. of the resolutions of an.
nexation, passed by our Congress. The on y op-
position which Mr.. Armstrong anticipates is from
the English party, which, however, he considers
too insignificant to throw any obstacle in the way
of concentrating this great measure. The news
of the action of our government created the most
unboundcd feelings Of joy wherever 1t was re-
ceived, and it is estimated that ninety nine hun
dreths of the population, out of the office holders
are in favor of immediate annexation, and that
Congress will accep. our terms almost unanimous
". Mr.. A. is OH his way 10 visit his trends IN
the west, but intende TO be in his place in Congress
when it convenes for the purpose of acting on our
resolutions. The love Of our government, its laws
and institutions, is strong in the heart of almost
every man who has gone from this country to that

we we're raised by subscription in Boston. and the
balance in New York. 1t is invested, it is stated.
so as to produce 7 per ccnt-probably in some
manufacturing company. The income is to be
given to Mrs Webster during his life and contin.

vive him. after which the principal is to revert
to the original honors or their heirs.

an income for the "Godlike" but little short Of
