The Post Office.

The revenue arising from the present
rates Of postage having been found greatly
inadequate to the support Of that importan,
department Of Government, the question Of
raising the postage is being agitated, and is
creating considerable excitement through
out the country. We are decidedly Of the
opinion that this department ought, if pos
sible. to be sclf-sustaining one, but before
any such measure as increase in the post
age is resorted to, we think that searching
inquiry should be made into the expendi-
lures of the post Office department, and rs
trenchment and reform should be the max
i'm whenever such is possible.
The people will never and ought never to
consent to an increase in the postage, until
this is done The system Of extending in
discriminatory and by wholesale the frank
ing privilege and many other obviously un-
necessary and extravagant expenditures,
ought Immediately to be discontinued and
when, after fair trial of the retrenchment
policy, it is found that the department is
inadequate with all possible economy, to
the support of itself under the present rates
of postage, it will then be time to take into
consideration the wisdom Of an increased
postage. As is well remarked by the En-
puirer, "the post Office is empbatically the
poor mans Department Of the Federal Gov
ernment." In its numerous ramifcations
it reaches the interests of every man, wom-
an and child Of the Union, and it is of the
utmost Importance that it should be carried
on with as much economy, and with as lit
tie expense as possible, so we hope our
worthy representatives will go to work in
earnest to bring the outlay Of the Post Of
fee, inside Of its income. This the people
are certain can be done, and they will new
er believe the contrary unless it be proved
by something infinitely more to the point
than long heavy speeches on the subject,
and resolutions which are never acted up
on.

ton. In three districts, viz: the 4th, 9th,
and 18th, besides our own, We see the dis
graceful spectacle Of three or four candi-
dates scrambling over touches not yet va
Gated. to the imminent danger and risk Of
the party. In the cred Land district"
represented by Mr.. Powell, there are be-
side Mr.. Powell two other candidates al
ready announced. and third hesitating
whether he shall announce himself or not
In Gov. Smiths district, there are already
two in the field, and the discussion has
commenced. These gentlemen must meet
on the Hastings for discussion, and there be-
ing no points of difference in their politics,
both being democrats, the discussions will
and must of course, turn upon minor points,
personal merits, disgusting and degrading
alike to the speakers and hearers. In this
way, strong personal animosity will be ex-
cited in the breasts of the friends Of the re-
spective candidates, votes will be bartered.
in which the opposition, who will have a
State ticket in the field, will be participants,
and thus votes viii be drawn of from the
party, which would otherwise aid in SWELL
ing the majority. We would come out OF
the canvass in worse state than when we
entered it, and thus be but poorly prepared
to organize for the great national contest
which would follow soon after.
The opposition party ever awake to any
weakness Of ours, are on the alert, striving
by every means in their power to foment the
already existing strife. They banter and
allure us on by saying that they have no
idea Of running candidate, that they
want us to fight it out and finish it by reg
ular:." Kilkenny cat-fght." The game is a
polite one. for they have learned by long
and bitter experience the truth Of chat old
maxim, united we stand, divided we fall. ("
and though unable to unite themselves, they
are determined if possible, to divide and
split our party into factions. The plausi-
bility Of this must be seen by every think
ing man, and we hope the democrats Of the
county and district will take it into serious
consideration.
But were there no other ground upon
which to support our assumption, we might
contend for it as democratic custom, the
breach Of which might cost us more than
we have counted.
Then democrats Of the county, ofthe dis
trict, we appeal to you on the ground of
party allegiance, Of party discipline and
custom, to throw off the lethargy which
seems to have seized you, and rally to the
rescue OF the party, save it from disorgan-
lzation, and set an example worthy to be
initiated by the democrats Of other districts.
