THE NEW POST OFFICE.

We visited yesterday the post office in Nassau
street, not without some peculiar associations and re-
mniscences II is MT our purpose at present to give
detailed notice of the arrangements by which the
interior OF the building adapted the purpose for
which 1t is TO be hereafter employed. That shall do
ere long.
AT present suffice il TO say that those aIrnn pements
appear to be admirable and without fault, rejecting
The highest credit upon Mr.. Graham, at whose sug-
geson and under whose direction they have been p
jected and carried out. We cannot think them ex-
ceeded If indeed equalled by any post office in the
world. The peculiar construction and form of the
building have been made available for its chsrac-
ter to an extent that we did not anticipate, and a
stranger would suppose that the building had been
erected for the purpose which It IS now devoted
Our principal fear that there would be great
difficulty in the mode of receiving the mails, and to
that point yesterday We principally directed atten.
tion An inspection of that department, and the ex-
plantations freely and courteously given by the post
master, satisfied that these apprehensions
'opnted. This department is at the north end Of the
building, where too large folding doors of iron
opening on Liberty street
Here porer will be IN cons ant attendance whose
duty will be to take charge exclusively of this bus
ness. When the mail comes up, he rings a bell to
announce us arrival 10 the Office and then receiving
the bags, he deposits them in of two fire PROF.
chambers at the sides Of the entrance. portico is
erected over the entrance that the delivery of the
bags cannot be interrupted by any passing convey
ance other hindrance
We learned from Mr.. Graham that he was very anx-
ous to preserve the old massive doors where they had
long Stood but due regard to the des patch and
convenience of business prevented, they were too
heavy to be opened with that rapidlty and frequency
essential 10 such an institution. He therefore has
been compelled to remove them and proposes pre-
seDting one of them to the New York Historical So
ciety.
To Mr.. G. himself those doors have necessarily a
melancholy association and lasting interest, mas
much through them his grandfather passed
into prison, where he poisoned. He was confo-
ed in what is now fire proof receiving on the
east side of the door way.
Forbearing for day or two farther particulars we
only add that among the crowd visiting the building
we heard unanimous appreciation and admiration of
the internal arrangements.
