Postmaster Generals Report.

Mr. Regain, Postmaster General, states the number
rf Post Offices in operation in the Confederate
States at s, 1888. He makes the following estimate
of the probably receipts for the year ending June
3Oth, 1862, as compared with the receipts from all
the Post Offices now in the Confederate States for
the fiscal year ending Jnne 3Oth, 1861:
Total receipts of ali the offices 1861 $l,5l7,s8s 90
Total receipts IF all tue Offices in 1851 lns0l2 W
Showing deficiency of $a26,524 OO
This estimate, however, is based upon the returns
from only 1922 post-offices and the receipts must
necessarily be increased by the returns from the
remaining 4O24, though the latter are generally
small Offices scattered throughout the INFERIOR from
many of which the receipts will be inconsiderable.
His report, which has jus: come to hand, affords
abundant proof of the ability and industry with
which Mr. Reagan and his assistants are managing
this department The task in so short time was
hercuean one, to reduce to order and system the
immense machinery of the Post Office Department;
but glance at the report will satisfy all. that so
soon as it can be DONE our mail facilities will be all
that can be desired. We aware that complaints
have been very busy circulated affecting this de-
partment of the government, but the endorsement
Of Mr. Reagan, Mr.. Orfutt and others, by members
of Congress Immediately cognizant of the conduct
of the department, and the amount Of work which
the report dscloses to have been already accom-
plished nails these complaints to the counter. In
deed we are sure that the heads Of the departments
and chief officers of the government generally are
doing their utmost to conduct its business promptly
and efficiently.

A NAyY-The Confederate government is greatly
in need of navy. Every one feels this, but nonel
so much as our brave naval officers who could no
longer fight under Lincoln. With the amount OF
means in the Southern Confederacy, it is passing
strange that no strong effort has yet been made to
get I'D first class vessels contend with the despot
on the high SEAS With ten or twelve first class
steamers our Southern sailors would before this
have swept the Gulf of the Yankee vessels. The
Confederate Congress some time ago made large
appropriation for the construction of feet of gun
boats, but we have heard of bnt little fany progress
in the work. few small boats are being built for
sound navigation, but We hear Of no ocean steamer
vet on the stocks Is such an effort beyond our
reach at this juncture? We hope not.

e@- The field order issued yesterday by
Gen. Halleck, closing free egress and in
gress from and to his camp, is significant
of the near approach of the crisis to which
the whole nation is looking with almost
breathless anxiety. The propriety of such
an order must occur to every sensible man
who has visited the seat of war. The ease
with which our camps have been entered
by civilians and spies has been fruitful Of
great evil, and it is not strange that the
enemy is daily informed of every movement
made by our army, and every fresh aces
sion to it. This is in the highest degree
embarrassing to the commanding officer
who frequently finds his best laid plans
frustrated at the moment he is about to ex-
ecute them, by some thoughtless friend oil
secret foe. 49,.
Gen. Halleek knows the immense inter
ests that depend upon the next great battle
and he is determined that it shall be NJ
fault of his if he does not win it. He is ad
vancing cautiously and securing his pc
sition as he goes. There will be no NOR
surprises in the Grand Army of the Missis
sippi Valley.

BGr It rarely happens that in our edito-
rial capacity our readers find us premedi-
tatedly and with malice aforethought en-
gagged in putting any patent medicine,
but during our recent trip to the melsn-
choly scenes of Pittsburg Landing there
was one medicine which we found in the
hands of nearly every soldier, giving relief
wherever applied, whether internally or
externally. We refer to Perry Davis Vet
etable Pain Killer. All spoke loud in its
praise. and the kind hearted Surgeon of
one of our Indiana regiments informed Us
that he believed it was the only thing that
saved at least half of his regiment from
dying of dysentery during a recent long
march, and we cannot help suggesting to
our friends among the army suffers that it
is one of the articles they should never be
out of. 1t is packed in saw dust, two dozen

A small fraction of the Democratic men,
bers of Congress have issued an address 10
the Democrats of the country. urging the
reorganization" of the party to accomplish
certain objects therein set forth. We sup
pose the honorable and distinguished gen
tlemen whose names are appended to the
address will avail themselves of their frank
ing privilege to send it over the country,
and on that account it is unnecessary that
we should occupy our limited space with
SO long document. The address denounces
aooiition, and thus far we cordially endorse
It, But does it equally derounce the trait
ors nov In arms against the Union2 We
nave failed to discover it. This. we think.
IL fatal omission. In condenonino ahoIi.
ton, let not the Democratic party. follow
ing these or any other leaders. be lead into
the fatal error of even apparently svmns.
thizing with treason. We are sorry tbst
this address is not more explicit.
We have said that this address proposea
the REORGANIZATION of the Democratic mar
~. But with that excellent journal, the
Chicago Post we do not understand that
the Democratic party is disrupted except so
far as that party in the seeded States have
withdrawn. There is a national organiza-
ton aud national committee; there is
Democratic organization in every State and
county in the loyal States. The organiza-
ton Is as perfect as ever. We know of no
Democrats who have ceased to be such since
