New MAIL Rourr- DAILY MAIL TO
HANNIpAL AND Sr. JosEPH.--A dispatch
from Washington, received yesterday, in
forms us that Hon. JAMES CRAiG, Repre-.
sentative in Congress from the Buchanan
District, has completed arrangements with
the Postmaster General, for daily mail from
Quincy, H., and Hannibal, Missouri, TO ST.
Joseph. ID. i. BEEMAN, the Contractor. is
10 put it in operation Immediately. This
route, although a very oircuitous one, will
be Of great advantage to our citizens. Du
ring the winter months our mails can be
sent TO Quincy by Railroad, thence to Han
nibal, and thence to ST. Joseph by railroad
and stages, and this, most probably, in less
time then has been employed on the direct
route. II may be, that our citizens will not
like this roundabout way Of travel; but it is
the best that can be devised until our rail.
roads are advanced 10 their ultimate desti-
nation, Meanwhile the railroads and the
contractors on The Pacific and Westernro route
must bestir themselves il they do not want
the whole travel as well as the mails taken
from them Republican, 9TH.
We do not know how the people on the
south side of the Missouri river are getting
along, but we do know the north side mail
facilities are worse than they have been for
the last fifteen years. Under the best state
Of circumstances, ii takes letters and papers
four days 10 come from St. Louis TO this
place; about two failures a week occur, and
the missing mails come along in from six to
ten days. There is no direct mail communi-
cation between this section and offices weSt
of Grand Rluer. To send letters or pa
pers from Brunswick, or this place, 10 Car
rollton, they must take the back track, cross
The river at Boonville, go up on that side to
Lexington, or some other point, cross the
river again, and then come down 10 he place
of destination. To reach Rocheport or Col
umbin, the ri, or has 10 be crossed twice.
Now this is all wrong, and ought to be rem
edied, Immediately. The old main route
from Jefferson City, via Columbia, Roche
port, Fayet'e, Glasgow, Keytesville, Bruins
wick, Carrelltop, and SO on to Liberty,
must be re-estabished, and then all the
cross mails will be properly served. The
breaking up of this main trunk line, has
caused all the trouble, and nothing but it,
restoration will even comparatively right
matters.
Our St. Louis contemporaries, and all bus
mess men in ST. Louis are directly interest
in this matter, and we ask them to give the
subject some attention. And while Mr.
CRAie is working for the upper portion Of
his District we hope he will unite with the
member from this District, and get the old
G1ain line re-established, and then the PEG.
pie will stand cha ce Of occasionally hear.

country.

We've Of Two St. Louis papers on Kansas
Affairs.

The Leader "regretS to see some sound
Democratic papers in the Northern States
hastily taking ground against the Kansas
Constitution" and lhus undertakes 70 prove
to them that their opposition is very absurd:
She whole OF the Constitution has moi been
submitted to The people. In this, the action
Of The Convention has not been singular,
for such has not been the usual course in
the establishment OF new State Governments.
The only question, however, about which
there j., or can be serious difference of o.
pinun, has been submitted, viz: whether
Kansas shall be a Tree or slave State, If
the people choose they can have it slave or
free. The nonsensicle assertion that slave
nv will exist there by virtue Of the bred
Scott decision, is hardly worth Noticing, be-
cause every one of common sense knows
that if the vote shall be in favor OF free
State, slavery is absolutely and unequyo-
cally excluded by the Constitution, aud can,
not be introduced unless it be admitted that
the Supreme Court can abolish the Constl-
! tutions Of the United States.
The Democrat predicts that, il the Con,
s;itution be forced on the people of the Ter
ritory without allowing them the privilege
of saying whether they want it or not, there
will be bluodshed;
Ifthe government shall succeed in its last
measure; if Congress shall unite with the
President in accepting the Constitution; il a
State government with foreign rulers, and
based upon principles odiOus to the great
body Of the citizens, shall be put in opera
ton in Kansas, it requires no prophetic vis-
ion to luresee that blood will flow like wa
Iter-that border ruifianism will be reialiated
upon with harsh vengeance that fed
eral army will never never reach so far a.
the already iusurgen. Territory Of Utah.

The President and the Would.be Presi-
s.. dent.
WAsnrxorov, December 3:

WAsHGNGToN, December 3:
Judge Douglas and the President had TO-
day full and free interchange of opinion
on the Kansas question, but without, il is
understood, being able TO arrive at the same
conclusion in regard to the line Of policy
which justice and duty requires each 10
pursue. The interview, il is further stated,
was courteous, and they parted as they met,
friends, regretting that they could not view
the Lecompton movement in the same light,
Mr., Douglas, in conversation with his
friends, freely defines his position. He
stands, he says, on the principle of the
Kansas. Nebraska bill, guaranteeing to each
Slate and Territory the right to regulate
their domestic institutions TO suit themselves
and will follow that principle wherever its
logical consequences carry him, defending
It against all assaults, from whatever quar-
they may come.
In its application to Kansas he insists
upon ignoring both the Lecomp,ion and To-
peka movements aud securing TO the people
the right 10 form a Constitution for them
selves. He considers the Leoompor
movement in direct violation Of the princi
pies Of the Kunsas-N Nebraska bill and Gin
cinusli platform, and will probably nj al
early period Of the session of Congress IN
lroduce IA bill authorizing the people Of Kan
sos Io call n Constitutional Conyeriion

Tho Cash System.

The whole credit system of our country,
says the Nashville Union, has been made an
abomination. The retailers give credit TO
customers to induce them to purchase more
largely-to buy extravagant and useless ar
ticles of dress by putting pay day out of
sight--and when it comes, the buyer groans
over the folly and extravaganza OF wife and
daughters, and when called upon cannot find
the money to meet. his liabilities. But the
retailer owes the bank and must pay pune
tually, and as his customers cannot or will
not pay him, he fails and adds 10 The gener
al embarrassment. Now, if retailers did
not sell on credit. but required their custo,
mers to pay cash down, or At the end Of the
week, people would never break, and the
whole machinery Of trade would stand on Il
solid 10 ndation. In this respect the A.
merican people are unlike the English
French, German, or Chinese, who deal fol
cash in all transaction for private use. A
failure of the grain harvest, or war, is {
far less evil TO those nations than to the T.
nited States, and in consequence Of this I'm
sound credit system, our industrious labor
ers and our stGunchest merchants suffer
terribly every few years.
