A seIEsustaining Post Omce.

The expenditures for the mails greatly ex-
coed the revenue derived from postage. and
this department yearly draws on the Treasury
for the supply of its deficiency. There are those
who would desire to see the Post Office paw
its own expenses, and. to accomplish This
very desirable object, increase of postage
is the remedy proposed.
Money Tor every kind Of expenditure bv
the Government comes from the people, and
the drafts from the Post Office Department
upon the Treasury are met by the revenue
raised from the customs. which are Maid by
the people. Ii is matter of very little i'm
portance whether the money for the Post
Ohce comes out of the Treasury or from the
Post Offices of the country; in both cases il
comes from the people. But IL is n matter Of
very great Importance If this money is not
economically expended. And here il strikes
us that reduction of expenses is the proper
point at which To commence operations look
ing to self-sustaining Post Office.
If some OF the eXpens that now run into
millions were curtailcl, the Post Office W ould
under the present rates. soon become n self
sustaining Department.
The Post Office is emphatically the poor
mans Department OF the Federal Government.
II, especially. of all the departments of the
Federal Government, reaches down 10 the
cottage of the poor man. and we should prefer
tn see this Department kept at the present
rates rather than a return To hi CHER prices.

OF reckless expenditure Is to be continued

acted by Congress. and which the Department
Is compelled to carry out--Oeean Mail ron tes

bents Of the postal revenue.
Let our representatives turn their attention
to these sources of depletion. let them stop
these leaks in the Federal bird and il will
soon be found filled from the present system
But increased rates, without the stopping Of
these depleiions, will only furnish more

contractors, and reducing the expenses will
not require an Increase Of postage; for shoul ia
there still be a deficit. the Treasury eau better

We, therefore, deprecate any scheme for the
Increase of postage. until. at least searching
inquiry has been made inso the expenditures

OppossfIOn Convention.

Some days since we copied portion of an
article from the Memphis Eigie and Enquirer,
discouraging the idea of nominating an op-
position candidate for Governor. That ar
ticle was prepared before the present editor
took charge of that paper. We take pleasure
in copying the following paragraph from the
Elgie Of Saturday, introducing communica
ton warmly urging a convention and nomin-
alton:
ave publish the following letter from ON
correspondent with pleasure. We agree will
him that every inch Of ground ought to b.
contested. We should have candidates in tn,
Fl Id for every Office. and the principles and
practice of the present sham democratic AID
mnistration should be fully and boldly can
vassed upon every hill, and in every hollow
in the State.
As new conner in the State, we prefer not
to make any suggestions of our own as to tn,
time or place Of holding Congressional or
GubernatOrial Convention. We had rather
that matter should be settled by older citizens
but Ahcn 1t is done, and the candidates fairly
in the field, no one will be found more Jealous
in their support than ourself"

We might multiply these statistical compar-

conclusively that the results OF the late re-
