ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC POSTAL AR"
JUDGEMENTS.

The present arrangements of tue 1oheiAiiN
Tinted States mail between the Atlantic and racine
ports have long been sources OF loud ana Jos' GUN
nlaint. Severe censures have been launched upon
* past Office DEPARTMENT for its nertness in the
PREMISES Some Of these censures were well founded
others i'll founded. We do not believe the Post
master General has been unwilling, or is unwilling to
accommodate the public to the farthest extent of his
mower but we do believe, as we have all along be-
iieved that his extreme prudence and want Of adj
ministratiye energy have worked somewhat to the
disadvantage of the general interest Judge CAMP

ryine drudgery of the Post-Office Departments de,
partment which, by the way ought to be taken out
of the Cabinet should be regarded in any other light

found he should be continued in office without regard
to the mutations of politics. 1t requires man Oh

of the earth? That is the question, and the only

We believe the object can be accomplished by taking

mon the Nicaragua route 1t is shorter and SAFER
There is no safety on the Panama route. AT Panama
the native population have already murdered and plum
aoraa American citizcns and the disposition to PUN
do, and murder is well known to be stronger now than
ever. Nothing but the presence of an armed force
hoe prevented numerous sangunary outbreaks. The
deadly hostility towards everything American along
flat line is 50 well known and appreciated, that arsu-
mont and illustration would be supererogatory. Be-
