republic in the world.
The Washington correspondent of the New York Jour-

The administration seems to be going on, slowly but
surely, in the prosecution of general system of removals
and appointments Notwithstanding all the msgivings of
the wings The consular appointments be
made The consuls at London Pari-, and Havana will
not be changed There will probably be change, on
party ground at Rio. apprehend that the distribution of

HoLLIDAYsBURG, Pa.,) May 20, lSi9
To the Editor of the Union:
DEAR SIR: | hope you will permit friend to publish
in your esteemed paper few remarks relative to the
course pursued by the Postmaster General and Fitz
Henry Warren. as regards the removal OF good and com
petent deputy poJmastes, and contrast le course win
The declarations OF Gen. Taylor.
Gen. Taylor, previous to his elechon and during the
presidential election, forth in his celebrated letters that
honesty capacity and fidelity was all ne desired mat
he chad no friends to reward nor enemies to punish "
that he would be the candidate of any party but of
the whole people And w. 'nS
deputy postmaster who had Independence enough TO vote
for Gen Cass turned ounade to give way tor some
bitter and vindictvewhig
ce and the people the pursued by the Postmaster
General and Fiiz Henry Warren. in removing the late
postmaster at Hollidaysburg, John Gorey more bare
faced violation and disregard of the will OF the citizens
of Holldaysbug could not have taken place Wings and
democrats, without distinction OF party, recommended
continuance of the late postmaster setting or'h IN he
form of a memorial that change would not promote the
interest of the Post Office Department, nor would 1t
benefit this community; that they were satisfied with the
care, industry, and good management OF Inc olfce ;
signed BY 2Ol PERSONS and number OF letters addressed
to the Postmaster General, asking hun Tor continuance
But, notwithstanding the strong and honorable effort
made in his behalf he is made to give way, contrary to
the wishes of the citizens, whose love tor the good OF
their country is far above Jacob Coliamer and flz
Henry Warren as the heavens are above the earth
If the Postmaster General has in his possession any
esty capacity, fidelity it is due to the late postmaster
that he furnish him with those charges, that he may
indicate his character as officer If, on the other
hand, prescription the cause OF removals nothing is
left but an anxious desire for the blood OF democrat
and reckless desire to disregard the will OF the citizens
But may be- the Postmaster General will endeavor to
shelter himself behind the opinions OF one or two abd
wings of this county, who think they have the right to
dictate the good citizens OF this place. and have acct
dentay crept into honorable situations of short duration
They would be kings, but will. long be made to feel
the power of the sovereign people, in dscardng them
unworthy of the honors they possess.

The Br,t,sh Navigation Lnxs.

Our readers already that the bill repeating
the existing statutes, known the navigation laws of
England has passed the House of Lords. 1t was
ministerial measure; and although the majority in it's
favor was SMALL the English journals regard it as de.
csve If this belief should prove to be well founded,
most important step will have been taken towards a
liberal system of commercial intercourse throughout the
world In the last few years England has done much to
relax the restrictions under which her people have su
fered for centuries and when her example is added
that of the United States in support of the great principles
OF free trade produce the happes effects upon the
commercial legislation Of all nations
We shall publish provisions of the navigation bill as
reported to the House of Lords; but give this
ing the following extract from the editorial remarks of
the New York Evening Post, as abstract of its pro-
visions:
The first section sweeps away the rubbish of
y old statutes restricting the between port
and another of the British empire and its possessions
vessels owned oicered and manned by Brt.h subjects
statutes commonly designated navigation laws. The
subsequent sections conne this restriction the
between port and another of the British isles
tween and another of its possessions in America
and Hindosan This American vessels the direct
trade between Great Britain and her domnons in the In
dian peninsula, between Britain and Canada between
British and the West Indies and offers if enterprise
equal the OCCASION the trade between Canada and the
East and West Indies. American vessels may now if their
to their fortune that quarter carry goods
and passengers from England Australia, and adver
tse in the Liverpool market for cargocs to Gibraltar
and Malta subsequent section provides that the British
executive if foreign nations to whom the trade is
ed should subject British vessels in their ports to restric
tons imposed their vessels may counteract
them by narrowing the privileges granted in the BILL
place British foreign vessels nearly the
footing as possible. This will probably lead the British
cabinet to insist that shall open to British vessels the
The apdo #
California and Oregon until they erected into States
This is very little for concede and Britain would Lie
but a slender gamer; nor need American navgaors with
their incompatible vessels and their ever wakeu spirit
enterprise fear to be suppaned by any competition in
that quarter
But even the restr lotions which will remain upon the
coasting trade of the British possessions North America
and in the West Indies, may be relaxed by the crown
the local legislatures of those desire it, and the
governor general of India if the good the people subject
TO his authority snoud seem him require it, may per
init goods and Passengers be freely conveyed from
port OF Hndosan 10 another in foreign vesseh.

several instances the erection of China

separate frames are erected together, thus

movement after raising the frame is to at

,ri - The Revue DIES Deux Mondes has been formed
for the purpose of establishing an intercourse in
the intellectual pursuits the most followed between
distinguished men of Europe and America. Ii is
proposed IN this collection TO give prominent
place TO the affairs of the American Union, TO the
labors OF its politicians, and to the Literary and
Scientific publications OF its Authors. The Revue
dies Deux Mondes now makes public appeal to
American Authors and Editors, by sending to it.,
through Mr. Putnam, of New York, a copy of each
of their publications The Revue is in a better POI
sition than any other organ in Europe to serve as
an intellectual link between the Old and the New
World, which has Editors and Contributors the
most eminent political, scientific, and literary men
of France. Many of its contributors have visited
North and South America, and it still counts among
them many OF the Diplomatic and Consular Corps.
Each number of the Revue in addition to its articles
signed by the first names of France, contains, under
the title of Chronique de la Quinzaine," histor-
cal summary of the principal events of the political
world, which will certainly be, for the American,
the most faithful picture of the European move
ments.
