NEW POSTAGE LAW,

Prepayment on all Transient Prin.
ted Matter Compaiso,y.---The follow
ing regulations have been made by
the Postmaster General, in order 10
carry out the provisions of the net just
passed, requiring prepayment of pos
tage on all transient printed matter,
viz
1. Books not weighing over four
pounds may be sent in the mail prepaid
by postage stamps, ut one cent an
ounce, any distance in the United
States under three thousand miles, and
ut two cents an ounce over three thou
sand miles; provided they are put up
without cover or wrapper, or in a
cover or wrapper open at the ends or
sides, so that their character may be
determined without removing the wrap
per. ..s...act ...,.t... v
2. Unsealcd circulars, advertise
ments, business cards, transient news
papers, and every other article oftran-
sient printed matter, except books not
weighing over three ounces, sent in the
mailto any part of the United States,
are chargeable with one cent postage
each, to be prepaid by postage stamps.
Where more than one circular is prin-
ted on sheet or circular and letter,
each must be charged with q single
rate. This applies to lottery and other
kindred sheets assuming the form and
name OF newspapers; and the miscclla-
neous matter in such sheets must also
be charged with one rate. A business
card on an unsealed envelope of a cir
cular subjects the entire packet to let
ter postage. Any transient matter,
like circular or handbill, enclosed in
or with a periodical or newspaper sent
to subscriber, or to any other person
subjects the whole package to letter
postage; and whenever subject to letter
postage, from being sealed or from any
cause whatever, all printed matter
without exception, must be prepaid or
excluded from the mail. 1t is the duty
OF the postmaster at the mailing office,
as well as at the office of delivery,
carefully to examine all printed matter
in order to sec that it is charged with
the proper rate ofpostage and to detect
fraud. AT Offices where postage stamps
cannot be procured, postmasters are
authorized to receive money in prepay
ment OF postage on transient matter;
but they should be careful to keep u
supply of stamps on hand.

THE NEW COINAGE BILL.

During the first session of the pre-
sent Congress, a bill was passed in the
Senate, which authorizes the calling in
of the old coins of25, 124, and Ct cts.
and the substitution of new American
coins. The 20 cent pieces to be re-
deemed at 20 cents, the 124 pieces at
10 cents, and the g. cent pieces at 5
cents. 1t also substitutes a new and
improved cent of a smaller size, for the
present old fashioned and disfgured
copper coin. This bill has been made
the order of the day in the House for
Wednesday next; and we earnestly call
upon that body to pass italso, and with
as little delay as possible. The reform
proposed has long since been needed
the shopkeepers of the country are
particularly interested; and indeed ev-
cry individual may be said to be so.--
The new coins are neat, convenient, &
admirably adapted for the purpose of
change. The various denominations
may be detected at glance, whereas
many of the old quarters and lcvies
are so sadly defaced that it is almost
impossible to come at their real value
and character. The country at large
will regard the enactment Of this coin
age bill into a law, with the liveliest
satisfaction.-Pha. Eng.

Kansas to be a Free State.

The election being over, the people
begin to sec the duplicity of certain
politicians, who did their dvinest to
induce the Southern people to believe
that Mr.. Buchanan election would
secure the admission Of Kansas as q
Slave State. Every American States
man, who entertained the belief that
the climate Of Kansas would not suit
slavery, was denounced by Democratic
journals, as an enemy to his section
Such, among numerous others, were
Hon. j. NJ. Bolts and Ii. w. Davis
Now, however, since it has turned out
that Old Buck has all along been in
favor of the admission of Kansas as
free State, we find the Kansas Nebras-
ka bill abandoned by the Richmond
Enquirer and the Southern Democra-
cy. Even Mr.. Stevens of Georgia, an
ultra Southern man, has so far come
down to q correct appreciation of the
facts in regard to Kansas, as to admit,
as he did in the House the other day,
that there was not the least probability
or Kansas becoming stare state, be-
cause "the laws of climate, production
and population would prevent it"
The country has been agitated for
upwards of three years, by the Demo
cratic party, in regard to this very
question Of slavcryin Kansas, and now
after all, the excitement turns out, by
the admission Of Democrats themselves,
to have been conceived in sin and
brought forth in iniquity," in order
merely that they might be the better
able to renew their lease upon the pub
lie treasury. The South has been
swindled for the hundredth time, and
Kansas comes into the Union, as most
intelligent men at the South always
supposed it would, as a free State.

Pacifc Emigration.--A movement
in the city of New York, among Cali
fornia merchants, shippers, and others
interested in the trade Of the Pacific, to
remove the distractions to her pro-
gress in population and settlement, has
already been noticed. The names as
sociatedin the enterprise afford guar
antee Of its responsibility and intogri-
ty. Their plan of operations appears
to be, to thoroughly inform the East
ern world of the nature and capability
of California resources; to open the
lands to settlement and cultivation, and
by means of good wagon road over
land, guarded by government troops,
"a bill for which is already before Con-
gress, and additional and cheaper ac-
commodations for emigrants by sea, to
secure to the State a healthy emigra-
ton. This movement includes the
friends Of Oregon. also.
