interesting and the music above mediocrity The prin

nance Of Mile. Aathas her panomme was graceful and
expressive; she differs from ordinary pantomimsts in
asmuch from her style Of action, the audience

Madame Thillon will be supported by Mr.. Frazer, Mr..

The COUNTRY IN DANGER.-The cackling of a
goose saved the capitol Of ancient Rome. To
the late indignation meeting in the Park we
may probably owe the preservation of our Ii
berries. In the chivalrous ages the fate Of an
empire frequently depended on the strength of
coat Of mail. According to Messrs Taylor
and Spencer-the orators at the meeting-the
destinies Of this great republic depend upon
the cut of policemans coat. We may well
exclaim with the poet: "What great events
from little causes spring."

The New POSTAGE BILL-WHAT NEXT ?-The
House of Representatives is getting on swim
mingly. One day it passes bill appropriating
ten millions Of dollars to prop up foreign des-
potism and a gang of outside spoilsmen, and the
next day it raises the tax upon letters by mail
to fill up the vacuum in the treasury. Under the
present law, letters are conveyed through the
interior mails at three cents each, which
rate is to be increased to five cents and
letters to California and Oregon, or from
California and Oregon, are chargeable with
six cents postage; under the bill which has
passed the House the postage is to be raised to
ten cents Double, treble, and quadruple let
tiers in proportion.
Mr.. Odds, of Ohio, is the father of this pre-
cious piece of reform. Mr.. Olds, unfortun ately,
as Chairman on Post Offices and Post Roads,
was resolved to do something. If he could not
be great, he could make himself notorious.
And he has done it. Wilmot has his proviso,
and Olds has his increase of hostages. We take
date for reelection to Congress. He counts,
perhaps, upon something else. He would
hardly venture to run through the gauntlet of
his district with the Gadsden treaty and his
postage bill upon his back. Charmingly con-
sistent are the administration leaders in the
House. One Of them reports tariff bill for
diminishing the revenues; and another postage
bill to increase the revenues and each is brou ght
forward as an administration measure.
Olds, however, coming in after the Gads-
den treaty, guesses correctly. We shall need
an increase of the revenues. The postage bill
is but small beginning to what may be ex-
pected. The spoils will be exhausted-Guthrie
will be cleaned out; and, before the expiration
of this Congress, we predict call for a loan to
meet the deficiencies of the treasury. Begin
ming with fraud upon the American people,
and following up its spoliations upon the pub
lie money with such impudent exactions as this
postage bill upon the country, how can this pre-
sent administration terminate its career except
in bankruptcy and disgrace? What else can
await Congress which submits to be the SER
vile tool, in its measures of corruption and
Jolly, of such an administration
We expect that the Senate Committee on
Foreign Relations will refuse to spread the
Gadsden treaty correspondence before the
public; we should not wonder if they were
to set aside the appropriation bills, in order to
pass this House bill for the increase of postages.
In fact, since the Gadsden treaty spoilsmen
and the railroad land spectators have come
into power, we are prepared for any thing that
will get at the spoils Of the treasury, and fleece
the people for more. We are also prepared for
the election of an extraordinary number of new
members to the next Congress- Meanwhile the
spoilsmen are at work, and the people must sui
NIT till they can reach them. What comes
next7

no more than the complement and refused
to 60 into the cars when they saw them full,
the conductor could not force them to do other
wise. But 1t appears that the demand increases
with the facilities for travel, as is proved by
the fact that the establishment of the railroads
has not materially injured the omnibus busi-
ness. During the month of May the receipts of
the Eighth Avenue road amounted to S26,54 IL,
while the receipts of the Sixth Avenue for the
same period, were 2,3O5 81. On the former
each car makes nine trips day, on the latter
ten trips and the largest number of passen-
gers carried by either, on single trip, was
about one hundred and twenty. On the Third
Avenue road the receipts on Sunday amount
to about thirty. five dollars per car, which is
about ten dollars more than they receive during
q week day. The average number of passen-
gers to each car is seventy. There are now
five city railroads in constant operation, whose
monthly receipts amount to about one hundred
and twenty thousand dollars, or yearly to
about one million and a half.
