MAIL OARR1ERS- TO-THE SAUL AND LAKE
SUPERIoR.-We met last night six of the
mail carriers to the Saul and LakeSuperior,
who came down on Mineral Rock prepara-
tory to returning with the mails. They are
all Indians and half breeds, and with their
old-fashioned goyqqeur coats and cap0tes,
they present wild and rugged appearance.
One of them, John Busha, of the Saul, has
been upon the route several years, and is
celebrated for, his speed and great power of
endurance The labors of these men are of
the severest character. Over the ice and
SHOWS, through swamps and tangled forest
trails, they wend their way sometimes
packing the mail, with the provisions for
their trip, or, as they style it, voyage, upon
their backs, at others, driving itbefore them
on sleds drawn by trained dogs. In this
way they traverse the country for hundreds
of miles through the frosts and storms of
Winter, sleeping where night finds them,
and deeming themselves specially fortunate
if they can make their beds in the bosom
of a deed snow bank. Their life is certain
ly one of great hardship, yet it would be
difficult to make them regard it in any
such light 1t is said that they can accom-
plish most incredible distances in single
day upon their snow -shoes@Detroit Free

PRESIDENTS MEssAGE.-This important
document is said to actually fill eighteen col
un,ns in the Washington Union. Much dis
satisfaction is expressed by the press of Gin
cinuati, at the idea of a place like Rich
mond, Va, being furnished with proof-sheets
of the message in advance, whilst Cincin-
natl, St. Louis and Chicago must wait I'M
til it arrives in due course of time by mail,
after it has been delivered. This is all
right. What business had Cincinnati to re-
pudiate the Presidents favorites, and what
ought the chief city of Illinois to expect
after the manner in which that State has
treated his fav0rite measures?

RsA,, The New York Herald thinks the
decision of the last U. S. Senate has not
entirely settled the question of Bright and
Fitch's right to their seats. 1t says the pas
sage of the resolution declaring their cleo
ton illegal and unconstitutional and void,
by our Legislature, has reopened the matter.
If two Senators are elected by our Legiaa-
ture, the U. S. Senate will be bound, in
courtesy, to examine, who has the best
right to the seats, and this will bring out
all the testimony in the case which will
and ought to be published to the whole
country

The TAX OF l858.-The House of Repre-
sentatives by the vote, on Tuesday, of 81 to
45, settled finally the question that there
win be no State tax for 1858. The expens-
es for the year are to be met bya loan from
the Trust Funds. This course is endanger-
ing the integrity of those sacred funds-for
it will be seen by the report of the Commits
sioners of the Sinking Fund, that the State
is now indebted to the amount of S424, 1000
to those funds for interest that has been ac-
cruing for seventeen years on money Dor
rowed from them in l64l.

Rsa= Mr.. Crittenden met. with an I'M
usually enthusiastic reception in New York
City. Mr.. Crittenden disclaimed all inten-
tion-in his speech on that occasion-of be-
ing a candidate for the Presidency. His
ambition was TO be patriot rather than Il
partizan. He looked upon the Office as one of
great responsibility, and one not to be sought
after. He was not a Presidential aspirant,
and ''would not accept the Presidency, I'M
less in contingency notlikely to happen
unless it should be the unbiased conviction
of the people of the United States that he
could serve them better in that than in any
other capacity" D.. a
Altogether, the speech was manly and
conservative, and the occasion highly COM
plimentary to one whom the people will ever
delight TO hear.

asa. The Arkansas Legislature is now
in session. The True Democrat in the re-
port of the proceedings, says that a Senate
bill was introduced to levy a tax on deadly
weapons. The bill provided for tax of
five dollars on each pistol bowie knife, ETC.,
owned by any person during the year. 1t
was moved to amend, by striking out
" owned" and inserting "carried, which
was adopted. Moved to amend by striking
outs FIVE dollars, and inserting twenty
five dollars. Moved to amend by inserting
one hundred dollars, which was, adopted
An amendment was offered that nothing in
the bill should be so construed as to prevent
sheriffs or other officers from carrying weap-
pons in discharge of their duties, which
amendment was adopted, and the bill then
ordered to be engrossed. laag saHlo s..taa
