o. The recently appointed Postmaster of Phila-
delphia, Mr.. White, and the recently appointed
Postmaster at Baltimore, Mr. Maddox, were the
chief clerks, respectively, of their predecessors in
Office and have been continued under several post
masters. They are familiar with the duties of Of
ce and will give satisfaction to the public who do
not care what are the politics of those who mail
our letters punctualy. The chief clerk of the New
York Postof1ce was also an applicant, but did not
succeed. So is the chief clerk at Boston.
1t will strike the public as a curious fact-the
principal deputies in the four largest offices inf
the Union, were of opposite politics to their supe-
riors and were continued in office long time, not
withstanding this Z" untoward' fact.

Es> Among the promotions mentioned in the
Eastern papers as having been made by the
National Council of the Catholic Church at Balt-
more, is that of the venerable Bishop Blanc, of this
city, to be Archbishop. A more worthy appoint
ment could hardly be made; but the announce
rnent is, at least, premature. The Council could do
nothing more than recommend. The appointment
belongs to the Pope, as the Head of the Church.
The proceedings of the Council were secret; and
these rumors of appointments should therefore be
taken with some hesitation, although it is doubtless
highly probable that they are in the main correct

We were yesterday called on to conslgn to the
grave the mortal remains of one who but few
DAYS ago was full of life, and vigor, and activity
But short time previous to his decease the friends
of Mr. Porter had no idea ofhis approaching death.
And now that he is gone-now that the face once
beaming with intelligence and fine feeling has dis
appeared-itis hard to realize the thought that we
shall see no more him who was, but yesterday, the
amiable companion and the attached friend,
To the immediate friends and acquaintance of
Mr. Porter, it is useless to say how much they have
lost in losing him whom they yesterday buried
To know him was to respectfully, almost to love
him. Even the casual acquaintance felt bound, by
ordinary tie, to who carried his heart in his
hand, and whose free, open, generous nature, at
tracted the affection of whoever approached him.
The friends of the deceased can appreciate those
virtues which are rarely known except to mans
intimate acquaintances-the sensbility and deli
cacy of feeling, almost feminine, joined TO an ele-
walton of sentiment and strength of will, that were
possessed by few men. But the New Orleans pub
lie are hardly aware of the loss they have sustained
in the death of Mr.. Porter. His usefulness to the
community was known to but few, for his infu-
ence was of the sort which is felt and not seen.
Mr.. Porter was native of New Hampshire, and
had studied law in New. York; but for the last
seven or eight years he was resident of New Or
leans, and has been during that time, the associate
editor of the Pcayune newspaper. As his name
never appeared in that journal, its numerous read
ers were not cognizant of how much they owed to
Mr.. Porter's industry, energy and intelligence.
With a zeal that seemed unbounded, and will
that appeared unyieldiug. he devoted himself to
his arduOus duties as if taking pleasure in labor,
and seeking constant employment for the acute
and active Intellectual powers with which he was
endowed. He never relaxed his efforts to instruct
and please the public and, with generosity care
less of praise and reward, he studied only how to
make himself useful to the community in which he
had cast his lot
He has gone the mind that has been so active
for the good of others, has departed from our midst
But such man cannot soon be forgotten nor
will his place be easily supplied. The heart that
has so often beat in sympathy with the feelings of
others is still; the brain that was SO constant in
its efforts for Others good, has ceased from its
labors. But it will be long before the memory of
GEORGE PORTER will escape from the hearts and
minds of his friends, and of those who, without
being personally acquainted with him, were cogni
Zant of his many virtues and extensive capacity.
