HON. R. c. WINTHROP.

We copy from the Boston Daily Advertiser Of
August 18th the letter of the Hon. II. G.. WINTHROP
to the chairman of the Massachusetts, Whio State
Central Committee, declining to be candidate for
the Office of Governor at the next election. It was
great misfortune to the Wings of Massachusetts,
and to the State itself, (remarks the Advertiser ."
that Mr.. WINTHROP was not elected when the can
didate of the Wing party for this Office last year
His intimate acquaintance with the affairs of the
State, the ability and devotedness which have dis
tinguished him in the discharge of his public duties
during the whole period of his public fe afforded
ample guaranty that he would have performed
the duties of this high office in manner to give
him rank among the most successful Of the dis
tinguished statesmen who have filled the executive
chair of the State. We regret that there are any
circumstances that should induce him to decline be-
ing again candidate at the approaching election
NAnAsr, AUGUST 5, 1852
My DEAR SIR You not ignorant that it was my
desire many months ago. to make known to the Wings Of
Massachusetts my intention not to be candidate for the
office of Governor Mt the next election. You aware
too that induced by the wishes of friends whose
judgment felt bound to regard to postpone any final de-
cision of the question until a later day.
The SSlte Convention has been summoaed, and de-
egates are about to be chosen. Meantime nothing has
occurred to change my views the subject On the
contrary, l am confirmed in the impression that some
reasonable unreasonable objections to the cordial re-
OF wings OF massachusetts,, fresh attempt
to the Commonwealth from the hands of the coa
on may be removed by the Convention being left entire
y free and unembarrassed in the selection of candidate
for the Chief Magistracy.
am not without hope, too, that such course may
contribute to the triumphant of the SooTT
and GRAHAM electoral ticket result for which would
gladly make any sacrifice in my power
Indeed it would always afford far greater satisac
ton to promote the of Wing principles the State
or in the Nation than be tie subject of any personal
compliments official distinctions whatever and do
hesitate therefore, to Withdraw any pretensons which
may have, which may be imagined to have to Sc
cond nomination for the office of Governor of Massachu
sets.
In requesting you give seasonabe notice to the party
OF which you the organ that my is not to be
presented to the approaching Convention beg you also
to them of the grateful remembrance which shall
cherish of the unfang confidence and support which
have experienced heirh hands, as often have had
occasion to appeal to them.
Believe me, my dear sir with the highest regard for
yourself and the gentlemen with whom you associated
your friend and servant, R0B'T {. WINTHROP.
Hon. GEORGE MoREY,
Chairman of the Wing State Central Committee.

Accounts from Montevideo to the 5th of June

puts an end to all fear of another foreign war; which

the treaties Of October 1851, accorded to Brazil
along the banks of the rivers Cebollati and Tacuar

pIscoNTINuANcE OF POST OFFICES

Our readers may have observed in our weekly
report of the operations Of the Post Office Depart
ment that unusually large number of post Offices
have lately been discontinued
We learn from the Department that much incon-
venence and irregularity in the settlement Of the
accounts Of Postmasters has resulted from neglect
on the part Of many of them in the smaller offices
to make punctually their quarterly returns, re-
quired by law and the regulations of the Depart
ment and that as some of them, even after their
attention has been specially and repeatedly called to
their duty in this respect BY circular letters, have
persisted in neglecting it, the Postmaster General
has found it necessary to adopt the rule that post
master tdiliag duly to make his quarterly returns,
and who, haciHg been trice notified Of his neglect by
successire circulors persists IN Il, shall be removed
from Office and that when upon such removal nc
suitable successor can be found to fiji the vacant
Office it shall be discontinued. We understand
however that when post office is discontinued
from this cause, because person appointed post
master has failed to execute his official bond it il
only necessary for those persons interested in it
continuance to recommend suitable person FOL
postmaster to secure its re-establishment.

We understand that Mr. LAWRENCE, our Minister
to Great Britain, has, at his urgent solicitation
been recalled, and that the PRESIDENT has nomi-
mated JOSEPH R. INGERsoLL, of Pennsylvania, to
that mission. This seems to be compliment not
only due to the ability and high character of Mr..
INGERsoLL, but also very justly due to PENNsYL-
WANNA, as that State has at present no full mission
nor member of the Cabinet, Mr. McKENNAN having
as it will be recoected resigned his place Secre
tary of the Interior on account of i'll health.
Mr.. LAWRENCE has been very popular Minister
abroad but we cannot doubt that his place will BE-
fully supplied BY Mr.. INGERsoLL, who is gentle,
man of accomplished manners, and has had much
experience in public affairs.

DEATH OF THE HON. ROBERT RANToUL, in,


We are sincerely sorry to have to announce tc
our readers the death of the Hon. ROBERT RAN,
rouL, one Of the Representatives from the State Of
Massachusetts
Mr.. RANToUL was in his seat in the House on
Tuesday last, the Sd instant At that time he ap-
peared to be in usual health, with the exception OF
what he considered to be small boil upon his fore
head. On Wednesday morning the little sore was
surrounded by erysipeateus inflammation, in conse-
ouence of which he was prevailed upon to remain in
his room and procure medical advice Thursday
the disease seemed to be entirely arrested, and on
Friday morning he felt very much better, and spoke
confidently of returning in day or two to his du-
ties in the House. On Friday evening he became
much worse; the erysipelas spread over the entire
face, and his brain was evidently affected. On Sa-
turday evening the let side became paraytic after
which he sank rapidly, and expired at about half.
past 10 o'clock P. NJ.
Mr. RANToUL was forty-seven years Of age.
At the desire of Mrs. RANTouL, (who, having
notice of his illness, arrived in Washington Sa-
turday morning,) the remains of the deceased were
taken to Beverly, (Mass.) Mr. RANTouL's late resi-
dence, on the o'clock railroad train of yesterday,
