The Frankfng Privilege Extended,

Great Inconvenience and loss have resulted
from the recently. passed law regulating frank
ing, calling forth circumstances from Govern
ment officers. In fact, official papers, accounts,
been detained and sent to the Dead-letter Office,
because the words "Official Business were
not written upon the envelopes with the names
of the officers sending them, or because the
writers were private citizens. Every Depart
mept has suffered in this way. To remedy
the difficulty, Senator CoLLAMER has reported,
from the Postoftice Committee. bill upon the
old system, allowing all communications to the
heads of departments and bureaus and their
Chief Clerks to pass free through the mails.

woman named Mrs. S. A. Leonard, pas
senger between New York and Boston,
stopped at the Massasoit House in this city
on Tuesday evening, and tonight was
found dead in her bed. She had no bag

The sword Contest.

At the close of the voting in the New York
Fair, the canvass stood
MCCLELLAN. ...........' 80
McClellan's majority over Grant,. 2,256
It was almost universally conceded that Nc
Clellan would have the sword, but project
had been made in secret to defeat him. Boxes
for the reception OF sealed votes had been pre-
pared, which were to be kept open until late
in the evening, and into these the Loyal
Leaguers dumped their contributions, not out
of respect for GRANT but to show their hatred
of MCCLELLAN. When the box came to be
opened, the first envelope contained the follow
ing; "Loyal men Of New York, 2,O97 for
GRANT" This completely turned the tide, and
others swelled his majority to $1,000. In the
list of envelopes put in the box we find:
Loyal Men of New York. Grant. L ,O97
Loyal New Englanders. Grant. 5000
Loyal Men of New York. ;. Grant. 100
Loyal Men of New York. 80. Grant. j, 900
Loyal Men of Chicago. ........ Grant. :. 325
B. F. Wheelwright for sundry
Loyal Men of New York. -. Grant. :. 10, 900
These vast subscriptions were assessed on the
Loyal Leaguers in their secret meetings, and
persons were appointed to deposit them in the
boxes at the last moment and in such secret
manner that the MCCLELLAN men would not
take the alarm, and come to the rescue. The
trick was successful but not very creditable to
those concerned in it.
