New Mail Arrangement between New YORK
and New Orleans.

and New Orleans.
We present to our readers full and perfect
schedules of the increased and expedited mai
service between New York and New Orleans
which is TO GO into operation on the first day
of March next.
In accordance with the spirit Of the age, and
desiring to subserve the interests and wishes
OF the great business communities, both North
and South, the Postmaster General has mate
rally increased his expenditures for mail trans,
portatlon, by expediting the great mails when
going South from New York to New Orleans.
fTenty four hours, and saving no less than fort,
hours time on the return from New Orleans to
New York
This is, doubtless, The best arrangement ever
effected for the mail service along our extended
seaboard, bringing, as it will, the extreme
southern port of New Orleans forty hours
nearer to the great commercial city of New York,
besides affordlng numerous additional facilities
to many intermediate offices, and incidental ad
vantages to points in the interior, remote from
the main routes.
This arrangement will secure to the people
immense facilities in their correspondence.
The northern terminus of this line is New
York, but railroad and steamboat COMPANIES
between that point and Boston, and even fur
ther north, will honorably compete for the
credit of conveying the mails and passengers
IN such close connexon with these expedited
schedules. that they may derive all the advan-
tages to be obtained by the rapid rate of travel
now provided through to New Orleans.
