4 REGIMENT OF VOLUNTEERS. =
 Afterrepeated interviews with Gen. Sherman
 Gen Rawlins, and Gen. Logan Chairman o
 the committee un Military Affairs, of the House
 of Reprssentatives) and on an understanding
 with them, our delegate, on the 7th ult,, intro
 duced the following preamble andresolutiOn in
 the House of Representative. We quote from
 ths Globe:
 ''Mr McCor mick, of Arizona, ask unani-
 nous consent to submit the following preamble
 and resolution for consideration at this time:
 Whereas every mail brings well authenticated reports of bold and brutal zoutrages committed by the h2stile Indians of Arizona upon the set tiers in and travellers through that Territory, and life aud property are in various districts utterly insecure; and wh ereas the present mil, itary force there is wholly inadequate to the proper protection of the people, and in the opinion of the General of the armies of the United States 1t will be difficult. if not impos- sible to send more regular troops there; there fore. , .-r.--
 ReSolged, That the committee on Military Affairs be instFucted to consider the propriety ofsuthoriziug the Governor of said Territory to recruit a regiment of volunteers from the inhabitants for the purpose o. cooperation with ihe regular force. iu movements against such hostile Indians,- anG if deemed expedient to confer such authority then to report to this House 8 bill for that purpose"
 As it was likely to provoke discussion no less a parsonage than Ben Butler objected 10 it's consideration at the time and it had to lay over; although Butler, in explanation to our delegate, said he was rot opposed to the reso- iution Upon consultation with Gen. Logan of tHa Military Committee, our delegate was assured that attention eould not possibly be given to the resolution, however important, at this brief session of Congress and, with much other matter, il probably had to go over to the '. next session, when, we doubt not, it will be re vived, backed by a. strong speech from the delegate, who, we know, has fortified himself with a mass, of facts regarding our con itou, | sufferings and necessities. Indeed when lie ] went from here, he thought it improbable that anything could De done at the short session, | and on introducingthe resolution, he acted, we udge, more from a desire to show his constit- uents his remembrance of their wants. than from any expectation of accomplishing imm e diate results From all we can learn, The con- fusion in Washington upon the change of the has been unparalleled, while the thrOng of ofice-seekers has been such as to almost oyerwheln even members of Congress. Next winter matters will be in much better shape, both in Congress and the departments.
 The action of our delegate, however, shows him to beaIive and eager to achieve something for the Territory; and he writes, whatever the delay in the volunteer matter, he will use every effort to secure more regular troops.

To the Pacific Commercial Advertiser:
Mr.. EDIToR-In your issue of the 10Th December,
l notice a communication called a Case of Red
Tape Worm y at Lahaina'-which, if not noticed
by me, might lead the public to suppose 1 had COM
mitted an act of gross injustice to the writer, n Mr..
II. he signs himself. His attempt at the ~faeetious l
will pass over, as secondhand wit is generally stale.
The plain facts are as l will relate in few words.
About the time mentioned in that article, Z. ".
Makee, Esq, sent me an express from Ulupalakua
with some letters for myself and some for Capt. E.
D.. Crane. of the schooner Kate Lee; ONE also for
Honolulu; all, except two, in either his own hand
writing or that Of Mr.. Snodgrass, their book keeper,
(as believe.) There were two others, one directed
to G. F. Pfuger, Esq, and another to some other
German whose name l DO not remember. Those were
in n strange handwriting, and both had on second
hand, or old postage stamps, that showed plain and
unmistakable marks of the ink and obliterator of
the Post Office Department. They had been stamped
with blue ink and with bars across the face, but
there had been very evidently an attempt to wash off
the ink. The attempt was unsuccessful, however;
and if he has sent you q clean stamp, 1t certainly
was not one Of those on either of the two letters in
question. / DO know that l have ever used stamps
better gummed and prepared than those now issued
from II. H.. Majesty's Post Office Department.
These letters, however, coming from another Post
Office, and from one who represents the Pest Master
(when he, the p. NJ, is ABSENT sent them back to
Mr.. Makee. with n note requesting him, if he knew
or could learn who the writer was, to call his atten-
ton to the statute laws, and to the penalty therein
laid down for the ofcnsc oC using postage stamps
