The PosT-oFFIcE REPoRT.-A document like the
report of the Postmaster General requires to be
studied by all who are DESTROYS to understand the
workings of the system and machinery upon which
the people of the United States rely for the trans
mission of intelligence by letters and newspapers
over all the stupendous expanse Of the Republic.
subject is one too full of details to be condensed
into paragraph; and in noticing this document,
which comes from Mr.. Collamer's hands distin-
guished by comprehensivencss of view and clear
ness of expression, we only pretend to direct at
tention to some of the salient points, the practical
importance of which gives them the first and most
natural interestto the public.-Phi. North Amsr.

PATRIOTIC REJOICING AT WASHINGTON.
A correspondent of the Baltimore Clipper
says: "The Metropolis Of the Union was an
enthusiastic spectacle of JOY and good feel
ing, up to late hour on Saturday night
last. The passage of the California bill, as
also of The bill giving Territorial Govern
ment TO Utah, filed the cup Of satisfaction
to overlooking, and rejoicings were had in
all circles and among all classes, wilhou, re-
gard to party. Men looked at each other
and brealhed ffeer, as they would exclaim in
exchanging congratula,ions-'Ae country

gifted statesman has suit of rooms, was
brilliantly illuminated in honor of him and
his colleagues who had SO nobly stood by
The ship Of state, and a band of music Sent

Banner, and Yankee Doodle. Sky rockets

were heard until late hour, in perambula-
lions throughout the city, paying their re-
spects TO different members of The Cabinet,
Senators and Representatives, whose united
influence had been put forth to preserve the
Temple Of Liberty aud Of the Union, from
the torch of the bigot and fanatic.
Several Senators, as well as the distin-
gulshed Secretary Of State, made their sp-
pearance and addressed the crowd in short
and appropriate speeches, and mutual con-
gra'nlaiIons were freely passed between the
recipients, and The bes,owers Of these de-
monssrahons Of respect. Among The Sena-
tors called upon were Judge Douglass, of
! ILL.,, The distinguished chairman of the Com
mlitee on Territories, Gen Cass, Messrs.
! Houston and Rusk, of Texas, Dickinson, of
New York, Foote, of Miss, aud Cooper, of
Pa. If such was the outpouring of HE
hearts gratitude in this city, what will it be
! IN the great commercial marts of this mighty
nation? Tomorrow the Senators from
, California will take their seats, thus making
the bow OF promise of peace and of strength,
span the continent from The Atlantic TO The
Pacific shores"

Ihreshing out grain.-It is, we think, al
ways good policy to thresh' out and store
away your grain as soon after harvest, as
your other more pressing labors will permit
you, as il places you in an eligible position
to avail yourself Of any favorable changes
of The market. Your grain ready, you can
embrace any occasion of sudden rise in
value, 10 dispose Of it, whereas should you
have TO wait for the operations Of lhreshing
and cleaning, fall in the price might occur
before you could have it ready, and thus
you might loose the golden opportunity of
realizing handsome profit. But indepen
dent of these considerations, the danger Of
the depredalions Of insects, and Of vermin
as explained by the Hon. Mr.. Carmichael,
in the preceding paragraphs, ahould a! once
point out TO you the policy and propriely
of getting your grain crop out a. an early
period, and storing them in your granary,
as a means of prederva,on.

THE REFORM CoNvENTIoN.-To crafty,
says the Clipper, the Wing and Democratic
parties, in giving the returns of members
chosen TO the Reform Convention, we have
cassed them as Wings and Democrats, SO
as TO exhibit the political complexion of,hat
body bu! the proper classification would
be reformers and anti-reformers for mem
hers will no. be arranged in the Convention
according TO their partizan attachments, but
as they are for or against reform. How
will the Convention stand on that question:
Reformers are elected in the following
places Baltimore city 6; Baltimore coun-
ty 6; Frederick 6; Washington 6 Carroll
5; AIIegany 5; Hartford 6; Cecil 5--To.al
as. These we think, may be set down as
certain for extensive reforms in the consli-
tuition. Aud to these may be added-anne
Arundel /; Talbot 4; Montgomery 2;
Caroline 4-making the whole reform
strength Of the Convention 56; being four
more than a majority. Some of the above
delegates may not sustain the radical mes
sures which viii be proposed by others;
bat we presume that they will all favor the
election Of public officers with the excep-
ton of Judges by the people change in
the judiciary system and in legal proceed
ings; and various other matters deemed
quite likely that the delegates from other
than the above named counties, will concur
in most Of the changes which may be pro-
posed, and that the new constitution may
be formed with lolerable unanmily We
hope that the wisdom Of The Convention
will produce an organic law that Will pro-
lect all interests, and prove acceptable to the
people OF The State,
