Correspondence Of the Boston Atls
The Destroying Angel.
NV YonK, july 5,h. IS4N


The angel Of death is qnickcning hi. steps in
this city as well az other regions. The pesti-
ience has ever been regarded by rejecting
minds as peculiarly and manifestly messenger
Of Heaven. ], has sometimes been commission
ed to 90 abroad IN a style OF execution actually
miraculous. II was so, when in a single night,
1t travetscd Egypt, and slew the first born Of ev-
cry family.
ia other instances natural ca uses have, to
some extent, been obviOu =. And in such cuses
the multitude have, for the most part, slupdy
and irrevercnly overlooked the divine hand, aud
suffered the chastisenent, sent in warning to all,
to be UNDECIDED and soon forgotten.
At length III the councils Of Heaven, it has
seemed necessary to send abroad the destroying
angel in new aspects of mystery and terror
The great pestlence OF modern times is the
Cholera. Twenty years ago II trdversed the
globe, and in its silent march, swept fifty mil
Mons INTO eternity. 1t is again on lis mission,
and with terrific power. It's causes, aside from
the sins Of mankind and the changeless laws of
Heaven, are yet Undiscovered. Its form Of
progress among the nations is unaccoun,able.
1t is peculiar to no continent, country, climate
or season Of the year. The must that science
and experience have ascertllned in regard TO it,
IS lntlc light as to lis eXcllIng causes and the
symptoms Ut Its onset, aud few eountefaoting
influences.
The Cholera is again visiting city and country,
throughout our Continent, arreslng universal in-
quiry, and exciting universal apprehension. Nor
perhaps is it reasonable to expect that 1t will
have orders from lhi Throne to cease its rlva-
yes, tnI men, especially in Christian c5mmuni.
llcs, are brought fully nnI hum5y to recognize
N II the presence ami power OF the Supreme.
| What but pApible miracle could more
clearly mark 1t as visitation from the Most
High? Bat the age of miracles is passed. AND
To the word aud providence Of jehovah, we arc
to listen for warning and teaching. Why, then,
amid gentle premun;iOns and the long iorbear-
ance of Heaven, should not christians rulers,
and the people ataIgc. regard with s'lsuln awe
the upItted sword, recognize the justice Of this
chastlscment, allure the slns winch may have

Retrenchment & Reform.

II The loco(oco coaltionSts IN 1919 passed
resolutions against Slavery AMI for Retire 1ch-
ment and Reform; but the people of Vermont
have memories, and recollect that these fellows
have Tor twenty years been supporting the very
abuses which they now profess 10 oppose Who

ing else" 1t takes the wings to practice as well
as preach for example:
POST OFFICE DEPARTMENT..
The twelve hundred dollar salaries of clerks
have been reduced TO one thousand and the fol-
lowing appointments have been made:
CierkS-lIendrlcks of Indlana Alexander of
Wisconsin, Buck of North Carolina, Morgan Of
Missouri, Williams of New York, Shedd Of
Vermont, Wabridge of New York, Hopkins of
Tennessee, Brown Of Pennsylvania, Porter Of
Massachusetts, Bnyington of Connecticut, Wash
ingon OF Ken lucky, and Morris Waterman.
We are pleased to learn that Mr. Collam.
err, the eficen, Post Master General, has taken
such additional measures to project the Post Of
fee Department and the public from mail dcpre-
dations as will almost ensure the detection of
all attempts 10 rob the mails.-.4ilas.
Reirenchment. The last Congress passed a
BILL reducing the expenses of collecting the rev.
enue from S2000,000 to Sl,j00,000 In carry
ing out the provisions of the bill, the Secretary
of the Treasury has considerably reduced the
revenue cutter service and abolished u number
of clerkships.
The Washington correspondent of the Jour
nal of Commerce writes as follows, under date
of June 2Slh:
"Lieut. Beale left yesterday with dispatches
for California. 1t is possible that he carries on,
the appointment of Col. Fremont, as Commits.
sioner TO run the boundary line, ins tead Of Col
Weller removed.
He certainly carries dispatches which tend tc
encourage and promote the adoption Of a State
Constitution, and an early application for admis
sion into the Union"
This is very significant 1t shows that this
Pro Slavery administration" is already taking
active measures to bring California into The I'm
ion as Free State. What tciH the self rghe
Gus Free Democracy say to that?
The Clerks. A Washington correspondent o
the Boston Traveller ntimaes that a number o
heads of bureaus will be changed on The frs
of July, and bears the following fl,tcrlng testi
mony to the character and usefulness Of the un
der clerks
Should il take place, an oVerhauling of th'
clerks would follow, which would be Of grea
service to the public interests, rs many OF then
are grossly inatenive or inefficient, and lh,
sooner the government get rid OF them the bet
ter. The standing Of many OF these men is a
so low an ebb in our community, that no one wi
credit them, aud their salaries are frequent
mort gagged months in advance"
How the Loco toco organs will groan whe
this ruthless ejec'nent OF their tried and e0icier
servants takes place.
