Ir 059 IL must be forgotten that in addition 10 the member of Congress and State and County off to be voted for in August, the people called upon to vote upon two amendments to lhe Constiiu. tioB, proposed by joint resolutions which have pas- sed the Legislature. The first is, whether the ses- sIons of the Legislature shall be held bennialy hereafter, instead of annually heretofore. incud. ing a change of the Senatorial term from three to four years-One half of the Senate 10 be renew ed at every biennial election. The other relates to the removal of the Seat of Government from Tuscaloosa, aud consists in striking ou the constitutional clause which fixes il there, without indicating any other point preferable
 On these amendments the electors may vote sepa- rately The election oincers are required 10 inter rogate each voter each of these amendments, and to endorse his answer, yea nay, To each on the back of his ticket.
 65-The new Postage Law is receiving compliment tary notices in most of the Eastern papers, for he great increase of letters which it has produced and the prospect of an unexpected addition thereby to lhe estimated revenue. In New-Y York on the first day the number of letters received five times the average under the old rates. Al Philadelphia the
 increase was between four and five thousand; in Bal tmore about fifteen hundred. In other places the same increase is noted; but It must be remembered that great allowance ought to be made for the novel; ty. There will of be great rush to use the new accommodation, great multitude of passen- gers try new ailload for a trip or two. The nov city will of and the number will probably ia Il off, but there is doubt that the permanent increase will be large. In the mean time, one great incen- venence is developing itself The nadequacy of the compensation to Post Masters is inducing many in the small offices to throw up their commissions The Washington Union says that the Post Master General received nearly hundred resgnations m one day.
 O5-At recent meeting of the General Theologi- cal Seminary of the Protestant Episcopal Church, in New York, motion was mande 10 remove Bishop Onderdonk from his professorship in that nstitu- tion. The motion rejected by the decisive vote of fl to II.
