the lettings in New York and New England, exceed
ing $l95, 600 less than the former prices. Should
similar reduction take place at the lettings in the
other three sections of the Unon the general reduc-
ton would be near $500, 900; but some allowance is
to be made for the apparent reductions.
The balances for weighing the letters under the
new post Office law, are, we understand, now before
committee of five gentlemen-one selected from
the Patent Office, one from the coast survey, and
the postmasters at Washington, Georgetown, and
Alexandria. It may yet be a day or two before q
selection is made. The models are very numerous.

also some very unreasonable ana exaggerated oPn-
ions.
| consider the officers of the government in this
CITY as occupying respectable stations apd degraded
onfv bv misconduct The democratic Presidents
have always treated and considered them as gentle
men, until they shall have forfeited their claim to
that character by vice or immortality. General
jackson, who was always in favor Of upholding
them in digni6ed station, took the ground, also,
that the rights Of the community should be protect
ed; that their official station gave the clerks credit
to certain extent the salaries furnished by govern
ment should be properly applied to sustain that
credit. At the time his order issued upon that
subject the law of imprisonment for debt existed in
this District, and the imprisoned debtor entitled
to discharge only by payment, or the nsolvent debt
or's oath. To 60 in debt, and pay by that oath,
was considered by General Jackson as good cause
of removal The rule which he established is as
follows:

A CARp.--A FRIEND of Mr.. Robert Grcenhow, of
the State Department, is surprised to find that any
press should speak Of him as a wing, or should at
tempt to mark him as victim. Those who cavi
at his retaining the Office which he holds, not only
forget the service he has rendered to his country
by his admirable book on "0regon and California"
but they do not know that Mr.. G. was the only
man in the whole State Department who was mark
ed out as a victim under the Harrison administra-
ton; that he received notice from Mr.. Secretary
Webster quit and that the death of General Har-
rison the very night Of the day when he received
this notice, was the only thing which saved his
head.
