THE NEW SOUTHERN MAIL ROUTE
TROUBLE AT NEW ORLEANS

Some weeks ago, the new mail contract, in virtue
of which the Great Eastern mail was to be trans
ported by the Mississippi Central and jackson rail
roads from New York to New Orleans in four days
and II hours, went into operation. We cannot say
positively whether the mail has ever once arrived
within schedule time, but this we do know, that
it has never been distributed at the Post-office in
our city and received by our citizens in less than
six days which was the usual period of tranSporta-
ton under the old schedule. 1t appears that there
are two impediments to the rigorous fultillment of
the contract, both of which, we should imagine,
might readily be Obviated. The first is a delay of
twelve hours occurring at point called Goodman 8
Station, on the Mississippi Central road, about
twenty miles north of Canton. The mail bags
reach Goodman's Station at 6 o'clock p NJ, and
are there detained until o'clock the next morning
in consequence of the absence of night train thus
causing loss of twelve hours. When the mail
arrives at New Orleans, POst-ofiice hours over
The Postmaster afrms-no doubt, correctly
that the amount allowed him for contingent ex-
penses is insufficient to justify the employment Of
night clerks; that he cannot require his employees
to labor longer than from sunrise to sunset; and
that, consequently, the Great Eastern mail is
brought to the city by the of the Jacksonville
railroad after 6 o'clock in the evening, it must
cessary await distribution until the next morning
Thus it happens that citizens are subjected to
further delay of II hours, entang theloss of an
tire day and night, and precludng them from obtain
ing their papers and correspondence tlfuly six days
from the time of the departure of the New York
mail. Practically, therefore, the sole Improvement
thus far obtained by the contract is the regu-
larity of mail transportation. Nothing whatever is
gained in time.
The obstacles to which we have alluded, are so
far from being insurmountable that they can be
easily overcome by the display of little energy on
the part of the Postmaster General As the parties
taking the contract have bound themselves to bring
the Great Eastern and New Orleans mail in four
days and seventeen hours, they should be compell-
ed to comply with their agreement, or to forfeit
the contract.

AN INDIAN FIGHT.

Thespecial Washington correspondence of the New
York Herald furnishes that paper with the follow
ing information:
Advces from the Dalles, Oregon Territory, Julv
s. state that had just reached that point of =
great fight between the Cayuse and Snake indians
both hostile tribes. The particulars had not been
received but the fact that there is want of union
among the hostile tribes is important, as it must
weaken their forces and aid the troops and friendly
Indians IN their efforts to subdue them In the Vi
entity OF Fort Colvlle, on the Frazer river, where
the first discoveries of gold were made in 1856, the
sayages are making hostile demonstrations, and have
driven IN the settlers just they were engaged IN
harvesting their crops. As this is right on the
northern route from St. Paul to the new gold Dug
gngs 1t is thought that it will be necessary to es-
tabiish military post there. Miners should not
venture by this route in parties OF less than one
hundred in number as the hostile tribes in the val
ley of the Columbia and Snake rivers have been
striving to excite the Flatheads and Nez Perces to
oin them and although they were friendly at last
adyices. there is no telling what the result may be.
This intelligence from Colville looks badly.

EXTENSIVE FIRE IN SCOTLAND-f60, 900 DAMAGE
On Sunday the 25th, the extensive cotton-spinning
establishment of Messrs. William Stevenson Sons,
at Crosslee, six miles to the west of Paisley was de-
stroyed by fire. Crossley Mill was a very large
cotton-s spinning work of six stories and attics The
number of spindles in the mill was 2S 00O and the
machinery, exclusive of the building, was worth
upwards of 100000. The mill, machinery, and cot
ton destroyed are altogether estimated at about
100000, but the proprietors said to be insured
in three different offices. The catastrophe will
throw upwards of 500 persons idle, for whom there
is no other employment III the district. Indeed,
in that respect it may be regarded as terrible
calamity, as it is feared that the mill may not be
rebuilt.
