us that about the goth February last, he had
mailed to j. II. Holeman, letter, In which

We have on several occasions noticed SINH

attention of the Postmaster General to tha
same.
As yet not one Of the lost letters which con-
tanned money has come to hand, and the in
ference is clear that they have been stolen; nor
are we aware that the department has adopted
any means for the detection Of these frauds.
We have volunteered to furnish all the in
formation in our possession to enable 1t to fer
ret out the frauds, but as yet have not been
called upon for it.
If some Of the secret agents would be more
vigilant and attentive to their business, we
doubt whether frauds would be so frequent,

New York Town Elections.

Sam (says the New York Express) has been
telling his own story in his own jolly way in
our State returns. Sam sweeps the State, leav-
ing little monument Of Sewardism, Locofoco-
ism, and other isms now and then; but Sans
broom, nevertheless, sweeps about everything
from Niagara on.

"TRIUnPn or THE AMERICAN CAUSE - TowY
ELECTIONS ALL ONE wAY.--The lightning has
struck, seemingly all over the State at the same
moment, and with equal effect. The old parties,
whether fused in body against Americans, or in
separate squads, have been blown to atoms, and
scattered 80 that no plastic hand can ever again
join the thousand fragments
"All over the State the Americans have been
triumphant. In two or three cities, where the for
ign population predominates, the fusionsts have

gethcr, the counties ms they come in, New York

Seward and his followers. The majority for the
American cause in the State must be many thou

The manner in which the work has been accom-
oshed has been as quiet as it is thorough"
All through the State, the Pierce and Seward
men appear to have combined against the
americans. But to no purpose. Sam was in
sincible, and crushed OUT the whole force of
nercenaries arrayed against him.

The sloop traffic Of the Hudson river probably sur
passes that Of any river in the world aud every

products Of the country and merchandise. A
walk along the docks is a treat for any one who
takes any interest in the prosperity of our city:

with card, In which he exonerates himself from
all blame. lie says he had no account Of the re-
ceipts of the opera from night to night, and that
continuing on in this manner would involve him In
a pecuniary point of view far beyond his private
means. What will now be done about the 81 900
premium offered for the best opera BY Ole Bull, re-
mains to be seen; most likely the offer will be can
celled. He feels 1t his duty TO pay to the utmost
extent for any services which may have been rem
dered, he says, and has also volunteered his ser
vices to play for the benefit of the artists Of the
late company.
The Public Schools.--Mr Waterbury has intro.
duced bill in the Assembly of this State, which
prohibits the payment Of any public money to any
school connected with public private asylums or
societies of a sectarian UNCONVENTIONAL character
or under the charge of any religious sect or de-
nomination, or wherein any particular creed or
doctrines peculiar to any sect or denomination
shall be taught; and il also provides that all pub

CHEsAPEAKE AND ONO CASAL.-The Cum
berland Telegraph remarks that the great bull
ofcoal shipments from that region must hereafter
be made by the canal for the reason that tn,
Baltimore and Ohio railway cannot transport
more than 100000 tons per annum, with
single track II also complains Of the manage
ment Of the canal, which il charges with being
inefficient and unwise, causing want Of con-
fidence in the owners Of boats and the Director
Of the coal companies II also anticipates 8
change in the direction, next June, and III,
substitution Of more efficient men for the pres.
emit directors.
We may add to the above, that the retail
price of Cumberland coal In this city is now
S6 80 per ton. It should be afforded for $5, or
even less. This coal is delivered here without
transhipmcnt, and, If sold at a reasonable price,
would soon supersede all other Goals in this
market. At 90 so IL is much cheaper than
wood, rs we can testify from personal expert
ence. 1t is, for all purposes, the best fuel H.
the market and its consumption ought to b.
encouraged in this city, by offering II at pric
80 low as to render it an object with house
holders TO procure CRATES and stoves suitable
