GOVERNMENT PosT OFFICE ADVERTISING
After the most rigid scrutiny and the closest
canvass. the New YORK HERALD has
again been selected as the organ VI
the Post Office Department TO publish the
lists of letters remaining in the Post Office OF I'll
city. The HERALD has been again selected as
having the largest circulation in The city Of Ncro York.
according TO The Act Of Congress in such case mode
and proridod.
Two years ago, after close canvass, in which
the Sum Times and Tribune all became parties, We
received the Post Office advertising, having prov
ed that our daily circulation in city and coun
try far exceeded that of any other Journal.
Since that time certain journals in the interest
of party hacks, and other Journals aiming to
rival us, industriously disseminated the report
that the circulation of the HERALD had diminish
ed in consequence of its political course during
the late presidential contest. Acting upon this
false impression, the proprietor of the New York
Sun demanded from the Post Office Depart.
ment new scrutiny, which was had. The
result shows that during the last two
years the HERALD has largely increased
its daily circulation in the city and coun-
try, while the circulation of the Sun has be-
come greatly diminished. The folly Of the pro-
prietor of the Sun in demanding the last canvass
is apparent. The scrutiny only proved that
he was going down while we were going up.
He was the sole instigator of the proceeding and
the sole competitor of the HERALD. The daily
Times and Tribune having fallen off in their daily
circulation during the past two years, did not
dare TO enter into the competition for the adj
yertisiDg Of the list of letters.
The decision Of the Post Office Department,
under the act Of Congress enables us to publish
in official shape the fact that the New YORK
HERALD has, within the past two years, largely

The City of Manchester, has just arrived below
Philadelphia, but on account Of the ice in the
Delaware she could not reach the city She
therefore turned about and made the best Of her
way to this port. It seems as If the very elements
combined in favor Of New York, and the severity
of the weather, which so materially interferes
with inland and city retail trade, absolutely
drives TO our harbor foreign commerce

delpbians may as well give il up They cannot
support line of ocean steamers and when one

increased its circulation in and out of the city,
while the Sun and other daily journals have suf-
fered from corresponding decrease during the
same space of time. Our highest circulation
at one time during the period mentioned
amounted to seventy-nine thousand $4,000 i'm
pressions in one day; the general average Of our
circulations sixty thousand (60,0OO) copies per
day; our city circulation alone, below Fifty-6rst

Newark, or any Of the surrounding cities,
amounts to forty thousand 100000 impressions

proclamation Of the new Cabinet without par
tiality, anxiety or fear.
The formation of the Cabinet however, and the
settlement of the law for the division Of the spois
among the brethren will constitute only part
OF the immediate responsibilities of Mr.. Buchar
man, The more important principles. foreign and
domestic, which are to form the general policy of
his administration, must be fixed upon at the
outset, and clearly laid down in his inaugural
address Inasmuch, too, as this course will COM
mand the confidence of the country and the
respect of the world, we have no doubt,
that Mr. Buchanan will adopt it to the fullest
practicable extent. We are entirely inclined to
believe that his inaugural will be calm, delibe-
rate, bona fde, and free exposition of the pur-
poses OF his administration, foreign and domestic,
and that they will place the party supporting the
administration upon a broaden, leftier, stronger
and more enduring Union and constitutional
platform than that which any such party has
occupied since the time of Monroe. The
quiet retirement of the shades of Wheatland will
he the proper place, therefore, for this careful set
ment OF the metes and boundaries of this new
dspensatiOn.
Our intelligent readers are we'll aware that all
the old party issues and party lines upen banks,
sub-treasuries, tariffs, public lands and internal
Improvements have become " obsolete ideas''-
that in fact, at this day the controlling lines Of
party demarcation are sectional lines, and That
niggers, niggers, North and South, are the para
mount question with demeralized and discord-
ant democracy and divided opposition. We all
know that amid the confusion Of these conflict
ing materials Mr.. Buchanan has been elected
we all know, too, that by the year of grace 1860
there must be a complete reconstruction of par
ties. Nor is this all: We know that what this
reconstruction and new division of parties is to
be will be determined to great extent by the
acts and measures, as weighed with the pledges
end promises of this incoming administration.
la this view, the fatal crimes, foies and blunders
Of poor Pierce stand out like buoys and beacons
to the President elect, pointing him out the shoals
and breakers. Mr.. Buchanan will accordingly
fall back from poor Pierce's road to ruin, tack
ship, and, steering by the chart and compass Of
The Union and the constitution, he may contem-
plate the future with clear conscience, though
alter him should come the Deluge.

THE CHEyAILER WIKoFF ON HIS TRAvEIs.-
We see il stated in some of the smaller city jour
nails that Chevalier WikOff was the writer of the
letter sent 10y Madame de Wilhorst to the editor
Of this paper. Whether or not this is the fact is
matter of little consequence to the public. The
letter was we'll written-it was entirely appro
PIRATE to the occasion-it came with admirable
grace from the young and charming prima donna,
and had a deep and abiding effect on the public
mind. We rather suspect, however, that the
Chevalier Wikoff in these latter days has
prima dome, tenors, opera managers or other ele-
giant articles of the same description. We under
stand that he has been during the past few weeks
in Philadelphia engaged in settling his private
affairs in relation to the fortune left him by his
father. When the Chevaler at his majority
came into his inheritance it amounted to about
one hundred and fifty thousand dollars, the
greater part Of which he spent in seeing and
mixing with the highest society, in all parts
of Europe, from Lands End to Moscow,
from Stockholm to Constantinople. The rem
nants Of this fortune don't amount to
much, but the Chevaler has enlarged his re.
sources by bringing his literary talents into the
market A fair specimen Of the Cnevalier's
talent in this way has recently been given to us
in bis Adventures Of Rowing Diplomatist."
The Chevalier is now, We understand. in Washing
ton, taking his final leave Of Marcy preparatory
10 another visit to France and Russia, where the
Chevaliers services may be of the greatest i'm
In brp oh th., ~,
tween the Emperors During the autumn Of
1855 Wikof visited Russia He was traced from
thence to Berlin, from which city he suddenly
disappeared through the door Of the Russian
Embassy. He was missing during three weeks,
aud was believed to have gone to St. Petersburg
and to have had private interview with Nessel-
rode He returned to Paris and placed himself
in communication with the French government.
Soon after this the first intimations of peace were
heard from Prince Napoleon and other stock job
bers about the Tuileries. They then saw the ne.
cessity Of making peace, because France had
gained all the glory that could be acquired in
the Crimean campaign. and it was necessary
to check British ambition in the sauic
quarter. They all then commenced speca
lating in stocks, under the full belief that pea
was near at hand, as the result proved. IT,
Chevalier wikof has already proved his agencv
in bringing about the entente cordias betwec 4

since his quarrel with Palmerston he would
probably be very willing to see a still
closer alliance between France and Russia.
