DISTRIBUTING POST OFFICES,

The Distributing Post Office for this por-
tion Of country has been removed from Ga
lena 10 nuauQue. Had the people Of Central
Iowa and Northern Illinois been consulted
with regard 10 this subject. they would have
protested agaius; such change in favor OF
Dubuque, Is enc calculated to delay their
already tardy reception OF mail matter.
BY this arrangement the Eastern mails.
which bg way d Galena. in good weather
are from Tour to live days in reaching rs, will
nc lfom FIVE to eiA days; whereas had the
Distributing O!5oe been located at Chicago
and TIE 4ails dispatched via, Peru, We should
have fecaiyea tAem il from enc 10 two days
sooner than under the present arrangement,
and rom two TO three days earlier than we
saalt the ensuing month Via Dubuque.
Is what aocu, pocus the Department was
W bsindea + the true wants Of the North
West We are uaacl a4iated, Bat We hope it
ray give the whole mail arrangement, with
regard te this portion OF country, another
aad mere candid consideration, as we DO al
dFm ear fj9fts 4rc rioi8ted IN making Us de-
pendent upon either GaleRa u Dubuque for
taa distribution 81 cur mai matter.
Did Iowa really require Distributing
Office, here i the point at which il should
have been located, as It would have accem-
p.isAed more towards facilitating the speedy
distribution OF the mails than the two offices
now placed at its ex,remities. But in reali-
il We IL nat need sRch an ofiee in our State

il will derive from the construction OF this
road. ensuing to Us, as il will, continuance
or tie profitable trade above the Upper Mis-
sissippi river rapids The work Will not be a
very stupendous one--the length Of the
road is set at 4 miles, aad its cost OF con
struction at $500 900. Surely, with such
liberal benefits 10 accrue from such an IN
considerable outlay, our citizens viii readily
harken to the appeal OF their Iowa neigh
bors. The argument of dollars aud cents Is
powerful argument ahieh-apaft from the
proyerbial enterprise and liberatty ot 81
