Van Dleman's Land, and New South Wales,
Except letters marked to be sent "by pirate
ship will be forwarded by the packets of the

pany, on the Sd Of every alternate mopth. com
mencing Sd June, 1852, from Plymouth, via
the Cape of Good Hope; and that the single
rate of postage (to be prepaid on letters sent
and collected on letters receved) between the
United States and said colonies will be forty
five cents, instead of fifty-three cents as here
tofore. The postage to North australia is un-
changed.
Letters for any part Of Australia, sent in the
mails to England, thence to be forwarded by
private ship, must be prepaid thirty seven cents
the single rate. lfsent via San Francisco, thence
to be despatched by private ship, the inland post

In like manner, letters and newspapers sent
via San Francisco for China must be prepaid
to San Francisco, and the ship postage has TO
be paid at the port of delivery. At any Of the
British colonies in China, the ship postage on
either a letter or newspaper is understood to be

Religious FEDERATION.

We quote few paragraphs on this subject
from Mr.. WEBsTER's speech at the Festival of
the anniversary of the Landing of the Pilgrims,
delivered at New York, December %, 1850
at is true, think. in the general advancement
of human intelligence, that we find what the Pill
grims do not seem to have found. that greater
liberation of religious opinion, a more friendly
feeling towards all who profess reverence for God
| and obedience to his commands. is not inconsistent
with the great and fundamental principles of re-
ligon; might rather say, it ia, itself, of those
| fundamental principles. 30 in day, /
think, without any departure from the essential
principles of our fathers, more enlarged and
comprehensive christian philanthropy 1t seems
| to be the American destiny, the mission which God
has entrusted to here this shore of the Allan
tic, the great conception and the great duty to
which born, to show that all socts, and all
denominations, protesting reverence for the
thority Of the Author of our being, and belief in
His revelations, may be safely tolerated without
prejudice either to our religion liberties.

the great DISTINCTION which ia sometimes over

The Goth District Congressional Convention.
The state of affairs in this body. they stood on
adjournment yesterday, it must be conceded, 10
not very promising. The two county delegates
are at dead lock, and not as yet the s CHIT

Oswego has given the Madison representation
opportunity Of occupying the fortified ground fur
nished in the resolutions passed the Congregation
al caucus in December last-a caucus that COM
prisod all shades of Wing sentiment--which the
Madisoninns refused by their votes TO do. The
eIpedient of a conference for accommodation of
matters has also failed-thc Conference Committee
reporting failure.
Now, we think our Osweg) friends have but one
thing more TO do before exha listing the resources
OF accommodation, and being prepared to throw
upon the other eide the whole responsibility of
representation at Baltimore. Let them propose to
compromise differences by Offering the Madisonians
n Ncbster man--ono unobuoxious to the powers
at Albany and TO the gentleman in the Senate
Chamber at Washington, and whose representa-
ton OF the district at Baltimore can be claimed by
no one az victory or captulation. We venture
TO say that through this proposition Lies the only
opening for any desirable result and accomplish
ment 10 this long and todiousiy protracted affair.
II this shall not be made. If made, made in
vain, the 10th Congressional district of New York
will not DO represented in the Baltimore Conven-
ton. nnd the unjustihabe and odious charge Of
fsctious motive aud procedure will be stamped in

says Of Gen. Gay:
"He was prominent and influential politician.
enjoying in a high degree the confidence Of his
own party ms well as the respect Of bis opponents.
In 1896 he elected TO the Assembly although
the county was overwhelmingly Wing, and he
has been, repeatedly we believe, the candidate Of
his party for Congress In January last he
chosen, after fierce struggle, the delegate from

We understand that advices from the Pacific
division of the army, just received, convey in
teigence to as late date as the 9TH April
from Fort Yuma, al the mouth Of the ella
river. MAJOR HEINTzELMAN, who commands
that post, states that the Yuma Indians enter
tain very hostile feelings towards the whites,
and have for some time manifested 50 fierce
and ready disposition to fight, that he has
found it necessary TO send out several expedi-
tions against them. The troops sent had killed
some OF the Indians, had burned their towns,
destroyed their crops, aud inspired them with
such salutary fear, that they now keep at a
distance, and fly at the approach Of any mill
tary force.
