Themselves 10 every intelligence. For instance,

A Washington correspondent Of TIE PhiIadel-

and bu,ness-llke account OF the postal arrange

like d couple of neiehborly editorss JEFF. would
have u fearful advantage in. swapping files OF

IL is good Joke tina. jeff. should get bis news

Baltimore Frederick, or any otss, out-of-the-way

for tho printing Of those interesting evidences OF
10 value. So long as Washington shall remain
free AID open to all coulers- IS it has hitherto
been. DO ne ed not suffer for information. 1t Is
a bright idea that he gets ass Army movements
