Another outrage.

The following is from Iexas pa
Five gentlemen arrived in San An.
t'nio, Sept. 4th, who are just return.
ing from Cal'ioIn'a, having come by
the overland route from Mazatan, on
the Paiic-thcir names and places of
residence are rs follows:
Richard NJ. Head, BIB county,
Georgia: John w. Cole, Holly Surnss,
Mississippi; Jas. Schoolield, llaml,
ton county, Tennessee; David Spring,
Fort Smith, Arkansas.
From these pelsuns we learn the
following painful disclosrre: In the
city OF Durango, Mexico, they learned
in private manner that there were
some Americans in the city prison,
and they afterwards got permission to
visit them. They found them in IL
large stone dungeon of SO filthy de.
scriplion that it was almost impossible
way but few minutes. The Amer.
leans in confinement were three il,
number, and their names and former
places of residence were as follows:
William Shirley, Broom County, New
York; William Rodgers, Stark Coun
ty, Ohio John Gaines. Dayton, Mont.
gomery county, Ohio. These men
have been iii this filthy dungeon four
gears and three months, and during
two years ofthis time they were chair.
cd down to the flour, in total darkness
where they could not see any person
but the one who fed there starving al
aowancc. At the end oftwo years the
huge chains around their ankles and
wrists had aocrn Mc flesh Off to til.
bone. and such was their horrid con
dition, that the chains were removed
to save their lives and keep them il
misery the longer. The flesh par,l,
healed over these wounds. leaving tn,
most heartrcnding scars, which wer,
NIL seen by the five persons Who's
arc mentioned above.
They state that they were inprison
ed on the charge of numbering AMI rob
blng man for his money, and the,
state also, that from some fact wlic
they arcHin possession OF, the perso
who committed the murder escaped

GENTLEMEN; Since the publication n

siderable discussion has arisen in reIa
ton to the ultimate success Of the
cheap postage experinent. 1t i mol
my object, at least in this comrnunica
ton, to participate in that discussion
| wish. however, to call the attention
| Of the press and the people to the fact
that the Po>tmusters, especially at h.
medium size offices, are not half paid
for their lahoriuus and responsible ser.
vices. No one has alluded to this
defect, and the reason is perhaps tha,
no one is aware Of its existence but he
Postmasters, who being directly in
terested feel delicacy in urging
the matter. "a"
But, gentleman, is it proper that
Postmasters should, in the small of
fees: labor and give their services to
the government; ought they to be pa d
or not2 They have luxurious duties
to be performed AMI they bear d heavy
responsibility; they drai with all Kinds
of people, and frequently. whilst in the
faithful discharge Of their duties, have
they tn suffer the unjust ccnsure OF
those who hold them personally re-
sponsible f,r every failure and de.
rangement Of the mail service.
1t is impossible to narrate the ir.
justice which postlasters suffer, and
to which they are daily x.'osed. The
Postmasters do not ask remuneration
for the unpleasantness thus OCCASION.
ed, but they demand of their coun.
try q fair compensation for their la
bors. In small offices, we have no pa
per, twrne, nor deck furnished US
by government.
Before the postage ON letters wa,
reduced, many o, .ha s.ns!! Offices wer,.
worth double the amount they are now
BY the act which reduced the postage,
the lshnrs Of the Postmaster have
uoeeu vastly increased, whlie their pa,
has been greatly diminished; unless
some provision is made for the pay
ment of the Post,nasters, homes; and
capable men viii not long be found ii,
such capacities.
Upon behalf Of the Pcstmasters in
the United States, I solicit the coop

do justice to a useful body Of public
servants. VOW, gentlemen, we more
