swallowed the former Wing party entire. A.
regard. the result the question il whether the
Know NOthings viii have converts enough from
the Democratic side 70 turn the scale against
the hitherto dominant party in the State. Con-
sdering that on some former occasions the
Wings have run their old opponents very close,
it would seem on the face Of the matter, look
ing at the triumphs of the Know-Nothings else
where, that the Natives must triumph and that
the Democrats must be defeated. Were it not
for the fact that the election is conducted on
the rirG roce system and not by ballot, we should
be inclined to predict that they must be over
whelmingly defeated. A. it is, we cannot but
think that the force of the new movement will be
sufficient TO turn the scale in favor of the Know
Nothing candidates. If it does not, il will
demonstrate that ACKNOWLEDGMENT has no Vi
tally in the South. But we know of no reason
why frenz, Of this sort should not have it,
run among Southern a. well a. among Northern
men. We expect therefore to chronicle Mr.
Wise's defeat, notwithstanding his confident
boasts Of a decisive triumph.

The hoped-for full supply of beef cattle did
not come forward yesterday in sufficient force to
bring down the price Of meat TO a reasonable
rate. BY reference to our report it will be seen
that the selling price of beeyes was equal to an
estimated average price per pound for all the
meat in the quarters Of thirteen cents, ranging
from II cents for the poorest quality to II or
14ic. for the best This will still keep the price

the luxury of sirloin stakes and fifth rib rOasts.

THE NETWORK POsT-OFFICE.

Although We have written much on the postal
system il seems more is needed on that topic.
at this moment the citizens uptown are trying
10 have a new Post-Ofiice. While this is build
ing, supposng it is TO be built, why not avail
ourselves Of economies Immediately available
With the best facilities of any city in the world
for good letter delivery be it known that we
have the worst. But with proper distribution
of city letters, with convenient receiving sta
tions, and with a rapid aud frequent transmission
Of letters to the principal Office, every known
resident could at the present moment receive
BIZ. etters-let him live where be would in the
CITY or suburbs-withOut charge in an hour
after their arrival in the City.
Thus, too, We might have a system established
so that letters from the remotest streets could
be transmitted to the Post-Offce for the mails
every hour in the day.
Some months since We gave the details Of the
system in operation in London and other large
towns in Great Britain, and showed what its
practical working would be in this City; let US
now sketch another plan and see if the incubus
Of old fogyism on the Government monopoly Of
carving letters can be removed, and we be put
in possession Of facilities greater even than
London enjoys in her postal arrangements.
The form of our City may be likened to a
ion with thousand omnlbuses and railroad ears
running from the outer edges down the ribs TO
tie point near which is now located the City
Post-Office. \ great many OF the letters Of the
people up town who desire new Post-Oifice
-re deposited in the boxes Of some Of the pri-
yate companies of letter deliverers, and two
cents paid TO get them carried 10 the Post-Oiiice.
Every hotel and principal business house in.
deed employs special messenger TO carry let
tiers. and often at ten times as much expense as
the postage upon their transmission three thou
sand miles.
Now this difficulty might be remedied in this
manner Let every stage or car in the City
carry a receiving letter-box or bag so arranged
that letters may be dropped in by every passen-
ger or BY boy jumping on the steps while in
motion, or by any person walking the street OF

The letter we published yesterday from Mr..
Perry, Charge dAffaires at Madrid, exposes the
mission Of Mr.. Soule in mastery manner. Mr..
Perry proves himself TO be well qualified for his
position, and the Administration would have
shown its sense if it had appointed him TO sue
ceed Mr.. Soule, instead of taking the politically
back-broken and brainless politician from Iowa,
Mr.. Augustus Cesar Dodge. Mr.. Perry makes
it manifest that be displayed great discretion
and great wisdom in managing our affairs in
Spain during Mr.. Soule's absence in Madrid, and
he exposes the imbecility, the passion, the pride
and the folly of the sensation-loying Frenchman
in quiet but most mercless manner. His mar
ration is so evidently truthful and uncolored
that it is fatal 10 any lingering remains of diplo-
matte merit that SOule might have had left. He
is left naked TO the jeers and rdcule Of the
world for his pompous pretensions and ludicrous
career as Minister. The whole expose Illus
rates the absurdity of SOule's appointment, and
sbundantly establishes all and more than all We
ever charged TO the account Of this eminent
ebarlatan in diplomacy.

THE SLAVERY CONFLICT.

The Union is uttering jeremiads over the
perplexed and threatening aspect of affairs in
Kansas. We venture 10 say, however, that il Is
net the outrages that have been perpetrated
there by the horde of whisky-drnkers from Mis-
souri, that afilict the conductors of that osrnal.
Neither is it the fact that by their crimes
Freedom is imperilled in the Territory. But il
is simply because their conduct, aud the position
Of sntagonism to law, order, and liberty, taken
by Atehison, Stringfellow and their coadjutors,
necessitstes or may necessitate the action Of the
Government in the premises. The alarm felt
by the organ Of the Administration is lest the
violent and lawless proceedings of these men
should force the President and Cabinet 10 take
sides for or against them. Hence it is praying
for peace, praying for harmony, praying for for.
bearance and depreeating all excitement and
violence.
This fact ntimates temporary cessation of
