New POSTAL ARRANGEMENT. The following
are the instructions to Postmasters, issued from
the department in Washington, in regard to the
act of Congress of March 3D. requiring prepay
ment of postage on letters:--
l. The act of Sd March, 1853, making no pro-
vision for unpaid letters to places within the Uni
ted States, on the same or day following any such
unpaid letter or letters being put into postotfce
the Postmaster thereof will post up conspiucousy
in his office list of the same, stating that they
are held for postage. If not attended to, such let
ters must be returned monthly to the Dead Letter
Office.
.. Letters part paid should be despatched,
charged with the additional postage due at the
prepaid rate, according to distance, established
by said act, except where the omission to pay the
correct amount is known to have been intention
al, when they should be treated the same as let
tiers wholly unpaid.
3 1t is proper to forward letter when requested
in writing. When forwarded, no additional pos
tage should be charged if the letter, contrary TO
its address. has been mlssent. If it has been
sent according TO its address, and then forward.
ed, it must be charged with additional postage at
the prepaid rate, according TO distance, estab-
Hshed by the act of March B. 1859 aforesaid.
4. Ship letters, as they cannot be prepaid, and
are not supposed to be embraced in the new act
will continue to be despatched agrceaby to the
provisions of the fifteenth section of the act of
March 3, 1855.

MOVEMENTS OF THE WINGS IN MAssAcuU-
sETTs.-At a recent meeting of the Wing State
Central Committee of Massachusetts the sub
ject of disbanding the Wing party consider
ed, and many prominent members of the commit
tee advocated it, and proposed to build up in its
stead Union party of all opposed to Know
Nottingham Bali. San.
There are two or three propositions that South
eru Democrats are in the habit of maintaining
most stoutly-one is that the Wings of Massachu-
sets are Observation-Disclosures that Know Moth
ingism there is covert and dgused movement OF
the northumberland third is that Know Moth.
ingsm and Whggery are one and the same. How
will these propositions be reconciled with the
facts stated above If Know Nothingism is
Whiggery in disguise, why should Wings oppose
it If Know Nothings and Wings are Adolf
tionists why should there be any antagonism be-
tween them We put the case, that Democratic
logcians may exercise themselves upon it.

The Virginia Advocate, referring to :he tales
of Democratic detection from the American party,
with which the Wise organs are teeming, says ::
"many of these letters are evidently written in the
editorial offices of those papers,and are false from
beginning to end as we know of our own knowl
edge. Others have been written by infamous
traitors, who Joined the American party for the
Guowed purpose, (as is the case with two charac
ters in the county of Rockingham,) of withdraw
ing and ijuring the order in every way in their
power. To show how false and useless are such
attempts, we will inform our American friends
that the order, instead of losing in those coun-
ties from which those letters have been written,
is daily increasing in numbers and responsibility.
In Greene, Fluyanna. Augusta and Rockingham.
the order is rapidly gaining strength. And the
editor of the Stauuton Republican states upon
his own knowledge, that for every member who
has Withdrawn in Rockingham, he count eight
who have been added TO the order

Mr.. WISE who in his peregrinations has
reached Southwestern Virginia, Is expected to
address the people MT Chrisiiansburg the 9TH
inst, at Salem the 9th, and Fincastle tho 9th.
He is said TO be very much exhausted by his la.
bors and, if accounts are to be relied ON, has
done his cause as much injury his constitution.
Considering his position N n candidate, and his
history rs n politician, he has certainly adopted
an extraordinary mode of commencing himself to
the good will of the people. SO far we know,
he has done nothing to soften the antipaihes, or
nnn.ase the rasentments of oldlne Democrats,
but has boi9,,v confronted thom with the declora.
tion TINT he has mo ,-ecanta.';onS 10 make The
Wings he tells that he WAS "irds Sf""k oW Il
their party--and the Know Nothing he pro-
nounoos lousy Goddess, ChriStiess scoandrt'ss
traitors and fools" 1t is impossible to believe
that with such language this ON his lips, his
pilgrimage through the State could be other than
q losing business to him and his cause. The
people of Virginia cannot be brow-hoaten and
black guarded into submission TO any man. Mr..
Wise had better have remained in the misty re-
gion of "Only' by the still waters of Conan
cock"

The Mississippian says that slO,O 900 have been
raised in Lexington, Mo-, to assist settlers from
slaveholding states to 60 to Kansas, and urges
the Mississippians to organize, and not to leave
the laboring oar of making Kansas slave state
TO Missouri Counter movements are on foot in
the North, and the contest seems at present to
point to doubtful result. Should Kansas be
made free state, it may be attributed to the
appointment, by President Pierce, OF Northern
man governor. Among the things that the
South has to remember against the Adninistra-
ton, let this be not forgotten.

To-day the election for city officers takes place.
and there is rather more interest than usual felt
in the result, in consequence Of the new element
which has been introduced into politics. There
are two tickets-one of which is understood To
have been agreed ON by the Know Nothing coun-
ellis, and the other by their opponents. From all
that we learn, the election cannot be taken as
test Of parties. Some names on both tick
ets-and others will be voted for without refer
ence to their connection with, opposition to-
Know n othingism. Many who will vote the
American ticket for State officers will not think
it necessary this occasion, and so of the oppo-
sition. Upon the whole, we think the scheme OF
making minor and local offices the subjects of
party disposal, unfortunate one. The old par
ties rarely interfered with such matters in this
State, and we think them beneath the dignity and
proper uses of party. Aspirants for these petty
places, failing to secure nominations, will visit
their resentment on the party, and asenge them
selves by quitting it. In this way more persons
will be offended than pleased, and more members
lost than gained. We think that experience will
demonstrate the policy Of adherng to the old
system of free fight among candidates, and full
discretion with voters

An article from the Baltimore Patriot, refer

An article from the Baltimore Patriot, refer
ring TO the movement of one of the X. n. Coun-
ellis of New York, for the establishment of n
satisfactory basis of national politics, will be
found in another column. The address md reso-
utions Of which it is synopsis embody sent-
ments of the broadcast patriotism, and PROFOUND
principles of action in which every section Of the
country may harmonic. The time has arrived
when every lover of the union should desire to
see such an adjustment of affairs will end the
foolish and fratricdal strife in which our people
have been so long engaged, and will restore tran
guilty 10 the country. Ii cannot be disguised
that under the incessant chatting of hostile senti
ments, under the chickering's of parties, and the
examinations and reoriminations of sections, tho
moral bond that once united us has been dis
solved A people cannot voluntarily dwell 10.
gether under any compact, except on terms of
mutual respect and esteem. A coerced union
implies subsection in party or the other.
Neither section Of the country will permit the
other to impose on it. Unless they can be equals
ard friends. the alliance will end and war would
soon follow. The American movement seems TO
US the most acceptable and suspicious PROPOSE
ton for a reconccment Of differences, and the
re-esablishment of good understanding, that
has ever been presented. The abnegation of all
exciting subjects, and the reputation of all
tional schemes, are the only methods by which
the country can be tranquilized and fraternnl re-
lations revived among our people Demagogues
and agitators should be every where frowned
down, and fanatics and traitors overawed and
slenced. Americanism, if heartily seconded and
pressed on, promises to effect these results Tho
South should lend its hand to urge on the ball.
Let the matter at least be tested. We see no
harm that can come of it-and incalcuable good
that may result. The proffer is made of u na.
tional party. with national and American objects;
let us believe that it is made in good faith and
accept it in like spirit. BY arresting the progress
of the movement, throwing it back on the North,
and damming it up within the free States, we mny
destroy or transform into an element of danger
and evil what would have been boon to the Re
public. Virginia will take an awful responsible.
