Circular Of the Postmaster General

The Postmaster General has addressed
letter to hir. George Maltingly. Post
master of New York, III reply to noie
from the latter Wishing 10 learn whether
Lrl provision has been made by the DE
lpriu vat for the relief Of us creditors and
the tXlinpuisbment Of its liabilities. which
lave already matured aud are now paya
bic. The reply IS too lohg for our co!
umus, but the following are its most ma
teria points:
3 The Postmaster General states that
organrZation of the government. failed to
maze provision for the department. Had

been elected, tire Presidra, might. on the
4lh Of March, haze called an extra session
and the OMISSION Of the late Conures

SO without DISTINGUISHING fifteen Of the
sovereign States.
This WAS most unfortunate. There
ought 10 he no time when n full Congress
coufd not be convened, and II is firmly
hoped such a state Of affairs may never
occur again. Had The bill which failed
made provision only for the fiscal year
commencing or The iirs, of July, there
woald ia, c been obviously no necessity
for an extra session. The deficiency on
the'l 9th Of June will amount to 81 3S5,

and which can and will lie paid 10y the
department within sixty DAYS from dat,
~ payment >of'the principle par, with

The Postmaster General also make
other statements 10 show that it would t.,
impossible to convene Congress in tim,
10 meet the great bulk of the responsible
tiles without virtually excluding from Con
gress the Representatives Of several of th,
sovereign States. In the judgment q
the President, ,"the lesser evil was to wal
unth the 6fsI Monday Of December, whe,
Congress will be full. Contracts can nev
