Tie managers Of our City Post Office certainly
have faculty. in all that pertains to the business
of afordiDg sccOmmOda alton to the public, of con.
staLtly trying mot to do It that might be envied
BY the lite Barnacle family of any Circumlocution
Office Oh earth They have established several sub
Post Offices for the accommodation of uptown
folks, which would be great accommodation If it
was known to any but their nextdoor neighbors
that such Offices existed. We are cure they are
not known to residents upon the other side Of the
same block. How should they BET They ale not
advertised where every body looks for information
and if they were, the people would soon discover
that they were established for the purpose of fur
Fishing places for politicians rather than for the
public accommodation.
For instance, there is one of these sub-Offices at
No. 4Cs Third avenue 1t is opened at some coz
vepent time in the morning for the officials, who
spend pleasant day there, and is very carefully
shut up before dark sf er which there is no chance
to dep sit letter in this accommodation Once-nOt
even through hole In the wall, for the next Eeve
hours and those, tOO-the hours of evening and
early mOrniDg-the very hours when the working
population have their only leisure to 60 to the
PostO Office. If any individual brakeman should
conduct his own bu,iress in the same way, of
eoUre be would fail, for no one would give him
custom. An individual would open his Office in
the cool Of the morning. and keep it open as long
any body was astir, and leave sietter.box open for
customers to drop their fsvors while he slept And
be would not, in opening new shop and new bust
Dess in strange peighborhood, leave it to the
chance Of customers seeing the sign over bis door,
but he would advertise in every city paper, and
besides that, send casd to every house that might
be benefited by such an Office That is what an

We observe that Mr.. Claiborne F Jackson has
been put forth in the Win District Of Missouri as
the Democratic candidate to fill tie vacancy in
Congress caused by the death of the late John G.
Miller. This parsonage, Familiarity known in that
r. gion as "Claib. Jackson" is one Of the chief
Border. Rufians, and has taken leading part in
the various invasions by which the elections OF
Kansas have been carried for the benefit OF the
slave breeding ogarchy Of Missouri On the eveG-
ing previous to the election of the late Bogus
Legislature, Jackson, with thousand Missouri
ans armed with bowie-knives, pistols, rifles, AID
two pieces of cannon lOa 1ed with musket balls, was
encsmped in ravine near Lawrence, when word
came that the Missourians who had just arrived in
the lid District feared that they might be too few
TO succeed in the contest of the next day, and that
two hundred men must be sent to them at Bloom
number Of volunteers in the camp, aud they set out
under bis lead and that Of Jones, Mr.. Pierce's
Postmaster at WesipOrt, No., since famous as
''Sheriff" ofDouglas County, Kansas. They arrived
at Bloomington at daybresk, and when the polls
OPT ned at once attacked the Judges Of the election
giving them five minutes to resign or die. The
re,ult was that the genuine settlers were driven
away and prevented from voting at all; among
them were Lien who had fought for their country
sssinst foreign foe, and who now saw themselves
violently hunted from the ballot-box by these do
mestic traitors and rufians, whom Mr.. Pierce has
favored and whom Mr.. Buchanan indorses and
pie dyes himself to support. Such is the represen-
tstive that the Democrats propose to bring
into the Congress Of the Union 1t is worthy
Of notice that while the Congressional Commit
tee were engaged in ascertanns these facts in the
Territory, Jackson was csDvassing for his election
among the people Of his District.

facilitating it, ssle and transfer For all practical
purposes, 90 far a. usage is concerned, certificates
Of sscck are jsss - much transferable By inSose-
m. ut snd delivery as notes OF hand. This idea OF
peeotiability il mercantile idea, against which
the Courts have always stood out a. long ~ they
could. They did it for . long time even in the
case Of notes of hand, Of which the negotisbility
was only recognized about a hundred and fifty
years ego, and our Court Of Appeals is doing
the same thing now % to certificates Of stock.
The dscbion upon which We are comment.
ing is entirely based on the assumption
that such certificates are not negotiable. But
whether negotiable or not, in technical legal
sense, it is very certain that they are negotiated;
and after they have been negotiated under the noses
of the Courts for q sufficient length Of time, the
Courts, ss they did in the case of notes Of hand,
will no doubt at length come to the conclusion that
after all they are negotiable; and when that point
is reached this decision about the Schuyler certi6.
Gates must go overheard, because II is entirely
based on the contrary aupposition.

Mr.. Dunn to-day gave notice that no should en-
deavor to seDd the bill, admitting Kansas a. a Free
State, to tae Committee OF the Whole "a step at
this stage Of the session equivalent TO sending it to
Coventry or the Tomb OF the Cspulets. Nobody
will pretend that bill, strenuously opposed this
will be, could be got out Of that Comm tee this
session. Neither is there shadow of reason for
giving this bill such direction. 1t is Sd ,rt and
simple, makes no appropriation; follows Tin oil its
details) established precedents; and presents but
single question to be decided-"Ought Kansas to
"be admitted az State under her Free Con.
"stitution framed at Topeka :" If she ought, this
bill ought to pass; if not it should be voted down.
The Housewife be as ready to vote conclusyely upon
it after three days debate as it ever can be.
But Dunn did not disguise the fact that bis object
is to kill the measure-snd on what pretext No
other than that, the Free State officers having been
indicted by sbamefully- packed Grand Jury,
VI der the atrocously illegal charge Of Federal
Judge, and being in prison, or liable to be put
there, on q charge Of High Treason, it will net do
for Congress to admit the State, and thus take this
csse out Of the hands Of Lecowpte, Donaldson,
StriDefelOw & Co..
Now the fact that the Slavery Extensionists and
Federal fuDctionaries In Kansas are persecutins
the Free State men Of that Territory 10 deaths

should hear the prayer Of the Free settlers and
terminate their prosecutions and expressions by

In Mexico the soil is of almost fabulous richness.
An English farmer near Jalapa asserts that in the
year 1854, one bushel Of corn yielded him two hun
dred and fifty bushels In the regions around Jala-
pa, it is averred that manure is never required, and
Indian corn is there reaped three times a year, while
further up the country it is planted twice a year.
Rev. DR.. Bushnell, of Hartford, writes from Cali
fornia to the New York Independent a graphic ac-
count Of the immense cedars of California, the great
est trees in the world. One of them, which had
been felled, he ascertained, by counting the grains
of the stump, to be twelve hundred and eighty years
old. When Mahomet was at nurse this tree was
sprouting-
The Rochester Union notices a singular escape on
the Central Railroad, near Lockport. A small bow,
son Of Mr.. Richardson, was struck by the locomotive,
and thrown a distance of IS feet by actual measure
ment. The fireman said he first saw the child in the
air some fifteen feet from the ground, and supposed
it was a dog. Though at first insensible, the child
has nearly recovered.
1t is stated on the authority of the Mexican minis
ter OF finances that at the present day, the church
property is valued at from tlco hundred and fffu to
three hundred millions of dollars. In the CITY OF
Mexico alone, of the five thousand houses there. val
ued at eighty millions, one-half belong to the clergy.
From the rent of these houses they derive an income
of twenty millions Of dollars.
ANTIQUITY OF GUNPowDER.-The first Englishman
who mentioned gunpowder was Roger Bacon, who,
about the year 1874, described it as then in common
use all over the world for making squibs to amuse
children. 1t is mentioned by Philostratus, $50 years
DelOro CurlSI anu In the cOue CT l1lnuOO laws IL is
referred to a period coincident with the time of Moses.
The military use of rockets in the armies of India
reaches to a period beyond record.
THE GROWING WEsT.-Nebraska City, two years
ago, was a wild waste, where night was made hideous
by the dismal howl of the wolf, and the Indian lodge
might occasionally be seen dotting the untrodden
grass of the prairies. On two days recently the
sales Of lots by the organized town proprietors
amounted to ten thousand dollars.
FRANCE.-Late letters from France state that there
is no danger of the overthrow of the government of
Louis Napoleon, though an outbreak may be attempt
ed by some of the secret revolutionary societies. The
soldiers are true to q man, and would shoot revolu-
tiOnists like dogs-business men dread the distur-
bance of commercial affairs, and men of property,
large and small, see that a change of government
could only be effected by wholesale slaughter, follow
ed by pillage and the g~uillotine.
