PACIFIC MAILS.

A bill is now before Congress which provides
for q daily Overland Mail from the Missouri to
the Sacramento, at cost of not more than
$500, ZOO per annum. We trust it may be made
right, il not right already, and passed.
This bill proposes to require the carrying of
Letters and Journals within twenty days, and of
other Mail matter within thirty. We believe the
discrimination unwise. The Mails should be car
ried through without Partially, and may be car.
ried 80 as cheaply as otherwise. Abolish all
FrankiDg and FreeMal carrage-make every
thing pay-and there is no need of any discrirni
nation. We firmly believe that all the Mail mnt
ter may be drawn by six mules at an average
rate OF six miles per hour, provided the teams
are changed every twenty miles, and are run but
one route each per day. There would then be
required Say II hundred stations between the
Missouri and the Sacramento with an average OF

speech-not upon Slavery, but at all--in Pbila-

the same day he himself presided OF public
meeting and proposed to give to that power OF
whose bidding free speech is destroyed, oil that
it demands Because his conduct year ago was
precisely the reverse of this, 80 his name, says
Mr.. Phillips, should be +" written in letters Of
"gold." We beg the great orator to be more
careful of his facts and avail himself little more
of the labors of the newspaper men whom he 80
much despises. Let not the exceptions to the
general rule of hating everybody be in loving
the wrong men.

gress in the District of Columbia to suit, not
the people thereof, or Of the country as large,
but the people of two contiguous States; it takes
away from the non.sayeholding States their rights,
under the common law, to prohibit the existence
of Slavery therein otherwise than in the case OF
fugitiyes; it recommends such States to repeal
all laws to prevent the kidnapping of their most
defenseess citizens; and finally, it makes these
important concessions to Slavery perpetual. We
greatly mistake the temper of the House II such
compromise viii meet with its appreciation
and We altogether miscaculate the strength OF
the Republicans Ct the North if there be any
possibility of their meeting with the assent OF
twothirds Of the people.

four men and twenty mules at each. Here
would be four hundred men to pay and feed, and
two thousand mules to provide and feed; and the
total cost ought not to exceed 100000 per an
mum. But then there are bridges and ferries TO
be kept up, and the contractors could not keep
the road in decent order for less than Sl00,0oo
Der annum, while their working capital-Mules,
Wagons, Harness, Stations, &c.--ought to be
worth 100000. On the whole, SooO,OoO per
annum is hardly too much, since the contractors
are reouired TO serve Denver and Salt Lake
daily, whether they run the big mail through
those cities or not.
But an indispensable condition of running this
mail regularly, or even of getting the contract
taken for reasonable sum by responsible men,
is the utter abolition of the Franking Privilege
If tho Pacific Coast is to have ten or twelve
Members and Delegates franking with might ana

A Compromise offered by Mr.. Crlttenden Of
Kentucky, was the point of interest in the pro-
ceedings of the l.. S. Senate yesterday. As the
proposed method of the more moderate of South
ern men TO settle the present controversy it re.
ceived and deserved marked attention. Mr.. Crit.
tenden proposes to renew the Missouri COmpro-
mise Line; prohibiting Slavery in the Territory
North of Sc 80, and protecting it South of that
latitude; and for the admission of new States
with OF without Slavery, as their Constitutions
shall provides to prohibit the abolition Of Slavery
BY Congress in the States; to prohibit its aboli-
ton in the District of Columbia so long as it ex-
ists either in Virginia or Maryland; TO permit
the transportation of slaves in any of the States
by land or water; to provide for the payment of
fugitive slaves, when rescued; to repeal one
obnoxious feature of the Fugitive Slave Law
the inequality of the fee to the COMMISSIONER
and also to ask the repeal of all the Personal
Liberty bills in the Northern States. These con-
cessions are TO be submitted TO the people in the
form of amendments to the Constitution, and if
they are carried they are to be changed by no
future amendments. As Mr. Crittenden is a
moderate man, as he ayOws his attachment
to the Union, and his determination to
stand by it, it is fair TO presume
that his propositions are the best the South is
disposed to offer. They hardly, however, deserve
the name of compromise, as that term presup-
poos some mutual concessions Mr.. Crittenden's
plan grants to the South that freedom shall be
the rule where nature itself prohibits Slavery,
and agrees that Northern Commissioners shall
not BE- brbed to decide in favor Of the claimants
or fugitive slaves On the other hand it pro' des, ON
he part of the South, that the Republican party
.hall give up what il has contended for for year,
md at last gained; II limits the power ci Con

1t is to be hoped that protection of swindling
is not to be generally insisted on as one OF the
concessions which the South expects of the North
before she will consent TO terms of comfy and
Union. That method of conducting affairs has,
we are aware certain advantages but the pro-
verbal good policy of the opposite method has
been so long accepted as true that there are
many practical difficulties in the way OF estab-
fishing rogucry as the safer rule. We give else
where, however, an account of an attempt to
introduce this new order Of things, where
number of students have attempted to intimidote
the Faculty of o Seminary Of learning in this
City into retaining as a Professor man proved
TO be o swinder. The defense of their favOrte
on the part Of these young gentlemen, is, not
that he is not knave and a cheat, but that he
ia q Southerner. Their success thus far has not
been encouraging as to the establishment of any
new principle, though they have so far succeeded
in disorganizing the College az to coerce the
President TO resign his Chair aud to break up
the usual routine of instruction. We do not
hear that the Faculty have offered any COM
promise.
