OF THE POsr OFFICE

With great pleasure call your attention to the re-
port Of the Postmaster General (marked F-) Al
though the business of the Post Office has been great
y increased during the past few years. yet the labor
being systematized allows it to he performed with
more ease and dispatch than formerly.
I especially invite your attention to the different
points suggested by the Postmaster General There
is no oabt in my mind that the remssness of unpaid
postmasters, the want Of some effective measure by
which the transmission of letters by private hands
might be prevented, and the abuse practsed on the
privilege granted consgnees letters in the absence
Of any fixed penalty, and also perhaps that wan: of
cooperation and assistance which ought to be furnish
ell by the Of coasters to the dheren thces.

FreedOm Of the soutbern press.

The Yankee journals declare that mill
4 tary despotism which suffers, or is not able to
check such outspoken freedom on the part Of
public writers is in fair way TO succumb. -
The allusion is to the frank and untrammeled
mannerin which the Southern press comments
on public affairs. The statement is its own
refutation. A military despotism" and a
press Of " outspoken freedom" can no more
exist together than fire and water. 1t is q
proof of the strength Instead Of the weakness
of the Southern Government, that it permits
the press to discuss public affairs with the most
ostspoken freedom" If it were military
despotism, and one which doubted its own So
! ldity and permanence, it would do precisely
what Lincoln is doing in the North-silence
every press that dared to say its soul was its
own, and send its editors to dungeon or bas-
tile.
Nothing can be more preposterous than the
assertion Of the New J ork Hera5d. that the
Southern canse is declining in popular favor
because some Southern newspapers criticise the
acts Of the Government The Yankees cannot
understand that the cause and the Government
are two distinct things; and that were the
Government even so unpopular-which it is
motor were there no Government at all. the
cause would be as dear as ever to Southern
hearts. The Southern Government in the iudp-
ment of the whole civilized world, and even
| according to the ADM sion Of enemies, has ae-
complished wonders. twin bear comparison
Mt any rate, with the Northern Government.
which with five times lis resources Of men and
means / has driven back and defeated for
gaaee-tee o C. ycar and half is isss~s, =
/ 70 claim for its iniallibility; there have been
errors and abuses doubtless, which the pres.
has denounced boldly proving, at all events
I that the Government does not interfere with
| the press, and, therefore, that it is not mill.
| tary despotism.
! But whatever the merits Of the Government.
the people are fighting not for them, but fol-
| themselves and unless they can prove traitors
I to their own lives, fortunes and honor, would
never desert their cause, even if their Govern
ment were weaker and more contemplate than
its worst enemies pretend. It's natural, how
ever, that men who are slaves themselves, and
slaves to the meanest aud most ignoble Of ty-
rants, should look upon freedom in any form
as dangerous to the State. There is scarcely a
press in the North which dares to dispute the
intallibility Of Lincoln, although in their Sc
cret hearts they believe him to be thoroughly
imbecile and corrupt Is this a proof Of the
strength Of their Government? Isita proof OF
anything but .he strength Of military despot-
ism, which is strong because those who sub
nit to il are only fit to be slaves ? Richmond
