Discontinue nee of Overland Mail Service.

Dlscontlnua nee OF Overland Mail Service
From the Washington Constitution, 18th May1
The failure of Congress, at its late ses.
sion, TO make the usual appropriations for
the Postoffice Department, has induced the
Postmaster General TO scrutinize the ser.
vice, with view of discontinue all that NAV
be dispensed with without material injury
to the public convenience. The territori.
al routes between Neosha, Mo-, and Albu-
querque, n. NJ, and between Kansas, Mo.
and Stockton, CALIFORNIA, which were let 10
contract last year, have accordingly been dis.
con:irued--the discontinuance 10 take effect
the first day Of July next. For some time
past, Gas it appears from the reports on file
in the Department. the service upon both
of these routes has been almost entirely
interrupted.
There is no evidence Chat the mails due
on the first route, Neosha in December and
January, February and March, ever reach
ed their respective points of destination;
or that those due on the second route, at
Kansas in November and March, and at
Stockton in January, February and March,
ever arrived. Ga the first route the mail
due at Albuquerque in November was not
received until the first of January follow
ing; and on the second route, the Decem.
ber and January mails failed TO arrive at
Kansas until the last due of February
Those failures have resulted from various
causes, but mostly from the presense OF hos
tile Indians along the lines, who have fre-
quently compelled the mail carriers to re-
turn and in one instance the mail carrier
was taken and mail destroyed.
The natural result Of such irregularities
has been the reduction of The mail matter,
until the amount for transportation has be-
come comparatively insignificant TIE en-
tire mail which left Albuquerque for Neo,
sho in October last consisted OF but two let
ters and newspaper. The service may
then, certainly be dispensed with and the re. !
naming four Territorial or overland routes
including the remain rontes from lndepend-
ence 10 Santa Fe, and Is,hmus route, will
doubtless furnish abundant mail facilities
for the entire public necessity.

Button up Your Pockets,

From the London Times April 29.
Let our readers note as fact which may
be interesting to remember; and almost in
credible to tell twenty years hence, that this
great European wal is commenced by three
destitute, necesitous and almost bankrupt
Powers. The last word is scarcely too
harsh to apply TO Governments who are
asking for the loan Of immense sums, hap
PLY in vain Russia, whose foiif. .and-a-ha'f
per cent Stock stands at 81, has lately been
inviting the British capitalists to lend her
twelve millions; France whose three per
cent rents have fallen to-day TO 62f., 65c.,
announces loan of twenty millions, when
a loan Of much less amount had beer rais-
ed with difficulty; and Austria's five per
cents stand at 49. These figures repre-.
sent the financial condition to which Eng
land might be reduced after carrying on
with increased energy war in the Crimea
and another in India for ten years, without
stinting herself Of any other luxury. Al
these three Powers cannot keep the wolf
out without continual begging and borrow
ing, and can only discharge their old obligs-
lions by contracting fresh ones, their bank
ruptcy is question Of time. But with q
perfectly empty Exchequer and blasted
credit, they set about the eostliest Or al hu:
man operations, for, happily, nothing cost
so much as killing ones fellow creatures:
That this should be done once would be
marvel, had got the marvel been so often
repeated as TO be marvel no more. As
most great battles have been fought by ar
mics in state of physical exhaustion, SO
most great wars have been commenced with
empty treasures. II is truth with which
statemen are ouly too familiar. When the
Prince Felix S,hwartzenberg was appealed
to by depuation of merchants TO consider
the hopeless state Of Austrian credit, be OBJ
served that until a country was bankrupt il
never knew the extent Of its resources.
