Posi- OFFICE RoBBERIEs.-Mr.
Carter, postmaster of Pulaski, KY, has
been committed for trial at F Frankfort in
that State for robbing the post office de-
partment. His plan of operations was
to address letters to the Department, re-
quiring a supply of stamps, purporting
TO come from other offices than his own,
and forging the names Of the respective
postmasters to them. He only selected
such offices, the mail matter Of which
had to pass through his office, and on re-
turns being made from the Department,
would abstract the letters and appropri-
ate the contents TO his own use.
b. Benjamin has been arrested at Chi
eago for obtaining letters belonging to
others al the post Office Of that city. He
had received letters from six different
private boxes, and is supposed to have
obtained a large amount in money and
drafts.

J. B. WELLER.


From the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.
New SETTLEMENT.-A new settle
ment has been started at Hammonton,
New Jersey, which for success and pro-
gress rivals anything we have heard of
in the West. There is large emigration
having objection to the West on account
of unhealthfulness, distance and associa-
ton, which embraces this new enterprise.
The land is a genial climate, and the
soil is said to be amongst the best Jer-
sey soil. Jersey, as will be seen by the
agricultural statistics at the Patent Of
fee, is the first agricultural State in the
Union for the value of its products
Hammonton is within thirty miles of
Philadelphia BY railroad, and enjoys one
of the best markets in the Union. The
tide of emigration to this place is i'm
mense, as well from the West as from
the North. Many of the best grape
growers of Ohio have located, with a
view to making wine. To Judge of its
progress, the population one year ago is
numbered at only five persons; it now
numbers over eight hundred souls, has
one hundred and twenty-five buildings,
three stores, two churches, Episcopal and
Methodist, steam mill, brick yard, mar
BILE yard, public school, newspaper, &c,
some twenty-five miles of new roads
opened, six square miles being improved
a new railroad station, and all the ele.
ments of an old place. We are satisfied
that this place must possess merit from
| its unparalleled progress.

e. The Kansas correspondent of the
New York EUenjng Post, who has been
understood to be Democrat, says in his
last letter:
There are those in Kansas who en-
tertain the idea of calling a Free State
Convention Immediately after the dis
posal of the English insult, with a view
to determine the policy TO be pursued in
reference TO the framing of another Con-
stitution, and the prJpriety of another
immediate application for admission into
the Union. Many oppose the idea as
likely to continue the agitation with fruit
less result; but ] am inclined to think.
nevertheless, that the convention will be
held, and the question authoritatively de-
cided. ! venture the prediction. that
upon the question of adopting another
constitution, or re-adopting the old. be.
fore the next session of Congress, OF
postponing the application until 1860, the
Free State party of Kansas will spill
into Democratic and Republican wings
A split very soon is inevitable, and thi
probably will be the wedge"

Democratic Retrenchment.

The custom house at Cbarlestown, S.
C., which has been for several years in
course Of erection, has thus far cost the
government SI,247,8 Il, and it is not
more than half completed, and this, too,
in a state so VIGOROUSLY free trade that its
senator, Mr.. Hammond, says that the
. embodiment of the northern tariff in
the legislation of Congress, would be a
sufficient cause for her to withdraw from
the Union" The custom house at Bos-
ton cost only about half that already ex-
pended for the one at Charleston, and
the duties collected in 1857 a. Boston,
were S44,840,083, while the amount of
revenue collected at Charleston was only
S2,0I6,368. But that is nothing to the
case. Democracy must spend its money
where it will tell upon the party to the
best advantage, so they give their free
trade, slaveocratic friends, a large dip into
the government funds. They squander
the peoples money to build marble pal
aces where the yearly revenues are not
enough to pay for the building, to say
nothing Of the lordly income of a regi-
ment of lazy officials, and when they are
asked for an appropriation for public i'm
provements, for rivers and harbors,-
why, then-Democracy has no money
they cry "retrcnchment." and "econ-
omy." When win the people learn tc
distinguish between real and pretended
friendship: When will they. learn that
modern democracy is buta popular name
for extravaganza and oppression?

g The editor of the Warrentown
(Va.) Whig writes the following to his
paper on Virginia politics:
Speaking Of Wise, l hear since my
arrival in the mountains that his friends
confidently expect that he will receive
the nomination of the Charleston Con-
vention. They confidently expect him
to get almost the entire Northern vote,
which can elect their man by more than
two-thirds.

PLEASANT DEMOCRATIC READING.
We clip a few extracts from a report
of a recent Democratic meeting at VIII
liamston, S. c., for the benefit of our
Democracy, as we doubt if their own
organs will be so obliging.
Hin. L. NJ. Keitt said:
" As for himself, so long as he was in
the Union, he was for discharging every
obligation that devolved upon the State
or the citizens of the State. Twelve
months ago he advised adversely; but
now he would say, sustain Mr.. Buchan-
ans administration. He went to Wash
ington at the beginning Of last session re-
solved to oppose the Administration but
when he got there he found INl. Buch-
anan upon the platform Of the South
II was then he determined to sustain the
President cordially and ungrudgingly."
The Hon. James L. Orr, Speaker of
the House of Representatives, said:
With regard to slavery, he thought
it better protected 'soa0 atnder the govern
naeat than 1t had been for thirty gears.
As to the future, he was for cooperation
with the Democratic party. He would
60 into Convention, go into caucus, seek
to have an influence in it by ruling and
controlling it."

Col. Fremont's Rights Sustained.

Col. F'remont's Rights Sustained.
BY the following proclamation by the
Governor of California, it appears the
rights of Col. Fremont to the full and
exclusive possession of his Mariposa do
main have been recognized. The ag-
gressions of the Merced Mining Compa-
ny have been put stop to; final stop
it will be, it is believed. The Governor
promises to back Col. Fremont's claims
with all she military power of the State.
Col. T. is now on the spot, engaged with
his usual energy in the development of
the immense resources of the Mariposa
lands. Now that an end has been put to
the fllibustering attempts to rob him OF
his property, we may look for important
results:
State Of California, Erecuttre Depart
naent,
SACRAMENTO, July 10.
Gentlemen: l regret very much to
learn that you and considerable num-
Der of citizens are in arms to prevent
Col. Fremont from working a quartz
vein on bis land in Mariposa county
This grant has been confirmed to him
by the highest Judicial Tribunal known
to cur government, and l understand
that he has for more than a year past
been working peaceably and quietly the
vein of which you are now, by force at
tempting to dispossess him. / had hoped
that amongst Americans the Judicial
Tribunal would always be resorted to
for the determination of the legal rights
of parties. If those whom you repres-
ent have legal or equitable claims to this
property l do not doubt that the courts
will give you the possession. 1t pains
me much to learn that many of you who
have shown by your past conduct that
you were law-abiding citizens have I'M
der temporary excitement assumed an
attitude subversive Of law and destruc-
tive Of all government. l sincerely trust
that you will calmly review the position
which you now occupy before the world.
An enlightened public, I trust, will
condemn the Iawless course which you
are now pursuing. Some of you are
personal friends, whose welfare I desire
TO promote, but you must see that the
laws are faithfully executed.
Col. Fremont is entitled to the peace
able possession Of his property, and il
necessary force must be used to secure
this to him. Iappeal to you, therefore
as Americans, to submit your disputes
to the regularly organized tribunal.
invoke you, as Californians, who desire
to maintain the honor of the State, tc
lay down your arms and desist from mo-
testing a private citizen, who is identified
with lite earliest history I imploro you
to save me from the painful duty of or.
dering out a military force to compe
Americans to observe the laws and res.
pect the rights of individuals.
1 said in my inaugural address thai
the law must be maintained at all haz
ards, and those of you who know me per
sonally, must be aware that this was NJ
idle declaration.
Sincerely hoping that you viii aban
don your present position, and return tt
the ranks of law-abiding citizens, ant
that there may be no necessity for m.
interposition.
1 am, very respectfully
= Your obedient servant,
: J. B. WELLER.

known.
Details of Sir Hope Grants victory
near Lucknow, state that the rebels were
nearly 10000 strong, and their loss was
600 men and six guns. The British had
six killed and thirty wounded. The fight
lasted three hours, and the rebels were
utterly routed. A good effect was anti
cipatcd.

The race for the Goodwood Cup re-
suited in the triumph of Saunterer, Fish
erman coming in second. Nothing else
near them. Only eight horses ran, and
the American animal, Charleston, was
last but one. Prioress did not start
Mr.. Merry, the owner of Saunterer, Is
said TO have won 100000 on the event.
The race is thus described: "Ventre
St. Girls and Sedbury raced for the lead
and soon placed wide interval between
themselves and their pursuers, at the
head of whom were Saunterer and Ruin
alton. On quitting the straight run, the
first two were upwards of dozen lengths
ahead, Ruination going on third, with
Arsenal and Saunterer next, Charleston,
who had occupied forward place up to
that point, dropping nearly hundred
yards astern of everything. They round
ed the clump without changing positions,
but Immediately afterwards the advanced
lot closed up, and when the rear appear
ed in sight Saunterer was seen with the
lead, Fisherman occupying the second
place, with Ventre St. Girls third and
Sedbury fourth; next in pursuit and far
behind them was Schiedam and Arsenal.
On descending the hill Ventre St. Girls
went up to Fisherman's quarters but
was shaken off in the bottom, from
whence the race was confined to the first
two. Fisherman made a game effort to
reach Saunterer but failed, and was
beaten nearly dozen lengths Off
Schiedam was third, Ventre St. Girls
about ten lengths behind him, and far in
the rear the others finished as if at ex-
ercise, Arsenal being last of ALL

will remain for a few days. The stitch made
by them is similar to that of the Grover & Ba.

which it Is sold, is much lower. owing to its
