wish TO say for the info nation OF your Eastern
readers, that the arrangements for expediting the
mail Eastward from New York so long In progress,
are az length taking satisfactory shape a con-
tract has been completed by which the great South.
Mail, instead Of going As hitherto, by the Sound
boats at > O'Clock in the afternoon and reaching
Boston the next morning, will now go on by aDd
al earlier hour, and reach Boston before mid
night The next step will be to send this mail y
the East from Boston in the morning train Of ca
instead OF the afternoon, as now. Arrangements
are on foot and will no doubt be speedily com
peted, 10 have this mail forwarded by the new
Watervile Railroad, o as to reach Bangor in
Maine the same night This will give 20 the East
ern part OF Maine and 10 the British Provinces, their
mail "A hours in advance OF the present arrange
ment East of Bangor 10 change vii be made IN
the existing schedules.
The few Anglo Saxons left in the Senate this
week present a very tame appearance. To-day
has been Sunday session. The little Celt from H.
lino.s, Gen SHEDS bad an opportunity o put in
his oar therefore aud worked away quite briskly.
His eocution is decidedly Irish, and yet he has no
particle OF brogue. Like al genuine lrishmen, be
warns up and grows more and more yOlUble as he |
proceeds with his discourse To-day he was advo- |
eating grant of land to aid in dcfraying the ex-
pense OF a Railroad in Illinois.
Mr. WENTWORTH forced through his resolutions |
in the House this morning, by the aid OF the previ
ous question, for the appointment of Committee
of Nine, 10 inquire in the business of the House
printing in general, and the contracts with FATHER
HircrIr in PaT,,sNleT. fnr whom "l-aNG IoH>'
has particular affection. IL seems % be the Opn-
ION OF the practical printers OF the House that Uncle
Sam is doomed to be perpetuaiy plucked IN this
business of printing, until a Government printing
house is established and : shall DO its own work
There is a most pressing necessity for reform In
TIE business
MR. WINTHROP will avail himself Of the first
opportunity that offers to address the House the
Territorial and Slavery questions. He will dissent
from Mr.. WEBSTER and go distinctly for the Presi
dents plan OF settlement
The House has been going on with the debate
on the Census Bill. 1t had sprinkling Of the u
dicrous to day in the remarks OF Mir. CARTIER Of
Ohio CARTIER is very clever speaker and good
Anti Slavery man. The heartiness Of his sent
nents reconciles one 10 some Of his extravagan-
ces Of doctrine. A man in whom genuine demOc
racy is ingrained is man to he regarded whether
We agree or disagree with his peculiar opinions
Mr.. CARTIER has an impedment in his speech
which sometimes greatly heightens the effect Of
his always pointed and energetic talk The pecu-
hsrty brought out rosrs o applause to-day, when in
a spicy bout with Mr. WOODWARD OF South Caro-
lima who had a great deal TO say about the nquis
torial character OF the census queries CARTIER had
occasion to tell him that the ConstIti-nution made
j, imperative upon to enumerate and inquire into
the condition Of the nigger-iggers' J.s.P.
