HIGH POSTAGE AGAIN.

On the 4lh inst, Mr. 0lds. from the
post-office committee, reported bill
modifying the ratesof postage, making
it FIVE cents on a single letter for any
distance under 5000 miles, and ten
cents for and distance over that, to be
prepaid with postage stamps, and to SO
into effect the first of January next.
The bill reduces ocean postage to
FIVE cents, for any distance under 5000
miles. The bill repeats SO much oil
the former law as makes a reduction
of fifty per cent, in cases whose postage
on pamphlets is prepaid.
We would like TO see the man who
votes for that bill, try to return agair
to Congress. The present rates vii
more than pay the expenses Of carry
ng the mail if the ranking business is
abolished

YOUNG AMERICA.

AS we were walking down Pear.
Street; in Cincinnati, few days ago
we were accosted by good looking
young man whom we had known, as
merchant IN Madison. In answer
to the few questions We put to him, we
learned that the success of the frm
with which he was connected, was so
great that Madison had become too
small for them, and that in the true
spirit of Young america they had NOV
ed to Cincinnati, and established them
selves on Pearl street, the head quar-
tiers of Wholesale business. We love
TO see that kind Of a spirit in young
men. Anybody can float with the
tide of emigration westward, and make
living, by doing business where there
is little or no competition. But it re-
quires men-men of energy, and bust
ness talent to settle among old estab-
lishment, and build upa business.
Of course we dropt into the store oil
Shar, Buell. and Barbour No SIS Pear
Street, and there we found Charly, Blu.
81 and some ten clerks boxingup good.
fer Il cir old Hoosier customers. and oil
ers, just as if they had been at No 81
all their lives.

We did not know till recently that II
was so expensive to rccapture runaway
negroes. No wonder owners make
Uncle Sam pay part of the expo nse

great deal oil il to do, or gentlemen would
not follow it for living. The following
advertisement which appears in the

some Of the children, at least, as to the
custom Of the South on this subject.

THE STATE UNIVERSITY.

Some ofthe Indianapolis papers are
beginning to agitate the question of
removing the State University to lndi-
anopolis.
When that question really comes up
for discussion, we will speak oft more
fully than we can now. At preeent
we will only say, that such move
would not only be needless expense,
but ruinous to the University as a
means ofimparting knowledge. Let
it remain at Bloomington, which is a
healthy and quiet village, and easy Of
access.

ES-We wish to say. once for all, that
though our neighbor Of the Democrat
allows Hull. Hargitt. Binkley & Co. to
abuse us in his columns, without re-
straiut. orregard to truth, we will. in no
case, allow our correspondents to abuse
Mr.. Bentley or his family; Inor will we
do il ourself. Judging from the speci-
mems already received. we could soon
give full supply Of low personal abuse.
If we would encourage that kind Of cor
respondence. We know no reason
why editors. who are gentlemen, and
who extend to each other the courticies
of social life, should so cater TO the de-
PRAYED tastes Of certain low and vulgar
readers. that they should allow them
selves or their correspondents to make
false and slanderous attacks upon each
other. As well might neighborina
merchants. or mechanics, or farmers
or professional men, use the press ts
defame each other. We are Of opin
ion that editors can treat each other a
gentlemen, 10 their columns as well a
elsewhere. At least we intend TO tr,
so TO treat our brethren Of the press.

For the American .
HON. I'D. BRIGHT,


, Mn. EprroR:-I am one OF those
who believe that there Is such a thing
as right and wrong in this world. and
that all men Of sound mind, are capa.
BILE of doing both. am one of those
who believe, that the members OF the
political party to which | belong may
and often do act improperly. and that
those Of the opposite party can and fire.
quently do act correctly.
Your Madison correspondent 81. NJ.
G." sneeringly charges Mr.. Bright
with want Of talent. II this were
true, 1t could not be charged as a crime
against him. but as the act of
Providence, and therefore not the
proper subject ola sneer by chris
tan man. 1t is however not true, for
Mr., Bright is man of very respecta-
BILE talents. And so far as can judge
of him from an acquaintance Of many
years. he is one of those who never
dodge qucstion--one who always has
an opinion upon every subject and
does not fear to express it--a man who
is always for or against you, and who,
if you ask him, will tell you plainly how
he stands. No two Office seekers,I ap-
prehend can be found, who at the same
time, have expected his influence in re-
lation TO any Office where his support
had been solicited. He is always fol
somebody in every contest in which he
has voice, and always expresses his
preference to all parties. So far
admire Mr.. Bright. Iwish could say
as much Of all our politicians, but
cannot. So far as your correspondent
insinuates, that Mr.. Brights' politica
course is marked by double dealing ant
duplicity, he is mistaken, and seems t.
be actuated bya kind Of malignit,
rather than love Of truth.
Mr.. Bright, so far as | have hat
business with him, is an attentive ant
faith full representative. promptly an
swering all letters, addressed to hin
and diligently attending to all bushes
entrusted to his care.
Mr.. Bright and myself do not belon
to the same political party, and there
fore differ widely on many ofthe prom
inent questions Of the day. but still
wish to see him treated justly an
fairly.
Again he is for his friends, in this
perfectly agree with him-I love m
friends best, whether Wing, Democrl
or Freesoiler.
wish | could persuade Mr.. Brigl
to oppose the Kansas-Nebraska Bi
