Without absolutely questioning the wisdom
of the proposition before Gen. Garfelds Cen
sus Committee to increase the number of MEM
bers of the House to three hundred, we confess
to being little startled at the exuberance of the
prospect Congressman are excellent in their
way and members of the House are particularly
lovely, but three hundred of them in one body
the promise of such a concentrated bulk OF
happiness is almost too much for us. Consider
it well, gentlemen, before yOu determine to
endow us with such an embarrassment Of
riches. Three hundred such people as lately
received the Senate! Spare us little longer.

We publish elsewhere an exposure Ofsome
of the methods in which the franking privilege
is abused, both by Members of Congress and
by rogues. 1t seems there are many ways of
performing the fraud. Sometimes members
give away franks out of pure good nature.
Sometimes they trade them off at wholesale in
exchange for puffs. Sometimes the franks are
stolen by clerks and messengers. Sometimes
they are procured by loose women, who sell
them. All these particulars are edifying in
the highest degree. Now we should like to be
Informed through which of these various ways
the frank of Mr.. James Brooks is devoted to
the chicken interest, and that of the Hon. John
Fox made to cover the the posters of The Ne0-
York World.

President johnson should Immediately send
All able man to Havana, and the Senate should
confirm such nomination at once. We don't
think the appointment of Gen. Smith alto
cetber wise one. He is the reputed author
Of certain communications in the columns OF a
Democratic party organ severely attacking the
military character of Gen. Grant. The fact
that he made himself thus prominent Will be
very apt to prevent Republican Senators from
voting for his confirmation, and make it impos-
sible for him to have Gen. Grants confidence.
The interests of American citizens are suffering
in Havana. A great Revolution has suddenly
broken out. The influence of the American
Consul will be of great value for the interests
of Spain as well as for the Cuban people, and
might lead to great results for the United
States There is no place more important now
than Havana. We trust the President Will
nominate a man as Consul-General whose name
will carry with it the confidence of the
people, and that the Senate will immedl-
ately confirm him. This is one of the cases
where the Senate cannot well afford to wait
until Gen. Grant enters upon his office.

1t is understood that the Senate Committe on
Post Offices and Post-ROads have agreed to ask
to be relieved from further consideration of the
bill to erect a new Post-0ffice in the City of
New-York; that is to say, they purpose doing
nothing further in the matter and leaving us
embarrassed and hampered with our present
postal deficiencies until another Congress can
be persuaded to relieve us. This delay is dis
graceful. AS we said before, it arises merely
from the contests of rival rings to get control
of a fat job. We hope the Senate will deny
its Committees request, and instruct them to
report bill forthwith.
