New PRESIDENTIAL RIVAL OF w. ii.

MIA, an cut-and out black republican, has at last
done something which may overshadow the
saurels OF W. II. Seward as Presidential aspi-

feating the Post Office bill upon that constitu-
ional revenue point raised against the Senate
upon that Senate amendment increasing tbe
letter postage from three to five cents. Thus.
with the aid of Senator Broderick, Mr.. Grow has
retained to the people their three cent letter
postage. Let Seward look to his Rochester
manifesto, or Grow may grow too strong for him.

postage republican candidate for President Davy
