Ex-PosTMAsTER FOWLER COMING BAcK-After
the results of the trial concerning the late Post
'Cdice defalcations we presume that Mr.. Fowler
will come back to the city again. and resume
srs old position among the Sachems at Tammany
Hall, put on all his feathers and leggings, and
take up his tomahawk, scalping knife and all the
spsraphernalia of great chief in the wigwam
'Yhe verdict of the jury in favor of Law and
eC0noper is verdict in favor Of him. 1t APP
pears by the evidence that the government
knew be was defaulter at the time of his re-
appointment and indeed il would seem to be
regular system with the government to con-
nive at if not to encourage thieying ia all quar-
ters-the grand centre being established at
Washington. 1t would be too bad to convict
Fowler and acquit the officials at Washington,
for they are manifestly all either guilty or in
.nocent together. They sail in the same boat.
We should not be surprised if the government
ministTations amounted to twenty millions OF
dollars. 1t is said that there is a deficiency in
the Treasury now of many millions, fraudulent
'iy brought about; and we know how affairs
stand in the Post Office Department. We said
more than year ago that there were defalca-
tons in the Post Office Department to the
amount Of million or whereabouts, and we
were soundly abused for saying so. Time,
however, has brought the proof.
Considering the finding of the jury in the re-
cent trial as to the responsibility Of Fowler's
'Sondsmen, we should not be surprised to see
the ex-Postmaster returning at once to the city,
fonIishiDg his tomahawk defantly and rafting
the dried scalps of his enemies. Why not?

NEWSPAPER IGNORANCE or STATIsrIos.-It is
amusing to see the ignorance displayed by the
republican papers about the relative popnla-
lions of the North aud South as developed by
the recent census. They are all hammering
away at the subject, ami are endeavoring to
prove that because the population Of the slave
States has not increased within the past decade
in precisely the same ratio as that of the
Northern States, the South is therefore de-
~caying. They entirely forget, or are ignorant
Of the fact that the North has been increasing
its population immensely by immigration IRON
Europe, while the South has had but little
addition to her population from that source,
her growth being confined to the ordinary
natural causes of Increase. The Northern
States have probably increased their inhabi-
atanis from eight to twelve millions by immi-
grafton within the last forty years The re-
publican statisticians overlook this important
fact.

THE FORTS AND ARsENAIs SEIZED BY TIE
SOUTHERN REvoLUTIoNIsTs.-Unt the pending
negotiations going on in Congress, and IN the
Peace Convention, between the border States
the Goldfish States, and The gun cotton States
are ended, and the people of the North have
decided upon what is to be done in the present
emergency, it makes very little difference who
holds possession of the forts aud arsenals
They were built to defend the country from
foreign aggression, and as long as they are in
the hands of the Southern people they are in
possession of the members OF one family. 1t is
all nonsense, therefore, to talk Of resorting to
coercion for their recovery until it is decided
by the voters of the Northern States whether
there is really to be Union or not Until
that question is settled the forts and arsenals
will do very well where they are.

The Effect Of Compromise.

The idea Of securing q peace
by compromising with tho rebels, is
The most absurd imaginable. Its
effect would DO to embolden tho
South to make still more srrogsn,
demands, aud engage in still great
er aggressions. Let the govern
ment once yield, and it's power to
enforce the laws is psralyzed. Not
one year would pass, until another
outbreak would take place, conse

wishes Of the South. The govern.
