Letter Postage.

The U. S. Senate by strong major
lty, passed the amendmet to the post
office bill, raising the hostages on letters
from three to .f0e cents. The increase
OF letter postage was voted against with
unanimity by the Republican members
of that body; they were willing to vote
for retrencement, and for cutting off
useless expenditures of the Post Office
Department, for the purpose of increas.
ing its revenue, but not to raise the tariff
on the circulation of intelligence through
the mails.
The bill containing the various amend
ments of the Senate, including the in .
crease OF letter postage, was sent to the
Rouse Oh representatives, where we are
glad to say 1t was rejected by a vote of
ll9 to Sc. The people should be thank
full that they have a house of Represen-
tatlYes in which the Republicans al
though IN a minority. are able bv the
ald OF few liberal minded democrats
to defeat occasionally the mischiefs
which the Senate devise. We ask anv
candid northern man of whatever politi,
cal party, whether he would be satisfied
to trust the legislation of the country, to
a body of men whose principles and
governmental policy, corresponds with
that of the present Democratic L. s.
Senate? Let any man note the senti-
ments put forth during the present SEES,
sion Of the Senate by the leading Dem
ocratic members of that body, and let
hun also note the yeas and nays on the
prominent questions elaborated upon,
and say if he wonld be pleased with
such democratic rule as the U. S. Sen.
ate seek to U.augurate?

Foreign News.

The latest arrivals from Europe bring
no particular new intelligence. The
war and peace rumors seem about equal
ly balanced. a half centapry ago, Eur
ope might readily have been involved
in a general war, for no more promin-
ent causes than now exist. But in the
progress of civilization, nations grow
more and more averse to war; we there
fore incline to the opinion that peace in
fiuences will prevail, and that there will
be no war in Europe at present.

Congress,

Congress adjourns to to-day; the
closing business Of the session has of
course not reached us. How much good
if any, has been done, and how much
evil has been prevented, will be known
TO the country in few days. There
have been great political revolutions in
Congress since the president came in
to power; Buchanan began his admin.
lStratIon with a powerful party to sus-
tain and carry forward| his measures /:
during the past few months, he has been
deserted by his friends and former sup
Porters, and has scarcely been able to
rally influence. enough in Congress to
carry single measure. Many who la
oored earnestly for his election in 1856,
nave during the present session openly
loPuuated him on the floor of Congress.
0oeh are the legitimate and merited
fruits Of treachery to the principles
aVowed by himself and friends. during
the Presidential campaign of 1886
