Dsar Rrprsss We have had quite an excitement In
city FOE the last three days. the Hotels have
been crowded with Rail Road Presidents and Speruen.
DENTS all striving TO obtain the for the
tesd service advertised by thc Postmaster General
This service Is based upon the evidently u principle
Of no performance pay. 10 addition this principle
another most important improvement is that the mails
shall be carried in locked from New York to New
Orleans never to be opened except by an authorized
agent Of the Department.
There have been six different bids made for this ser
vice but yet the favored Il unknown and will not be
known for week to the contest l. generally con
seved TO be narrowed down the old Atlantic line and
the East Tennessee and Mississippi line II is doubtful
Shch will be successfnl the bids far
goes are the same but the old line agrees perform the
service in less time. This fact taken In connection with
the consideration that the old line will pass through all
the Atlantic cities Of the South should be decisive But
there Is fear the other line has too great
ueght Of political influence operating in its favor
Two Of the Cabinet Nessrs Thompson and Foyd are
reputsd TO be its staneh advocates and will if possible
override the clear Judgment Of the Post Master General
We cannot conceive Why Mr. Floyd should desiIe to give
Richmond and Petersburg the .go-by," and Whining
ton and Charleston have sready spoken through their
city authorities in this matter think that Petersburg
and Richmond should their city authorities speedily take
the matter into consideration. N
