The Postal Service.

Postmastcr-G General Creswell has sent TO
the Senate Committee on tho Post Office
aud Post Roads letter in regard to the re-
solution recently submitted by Mr.. Sumner
IN favor OF cheap ocean postage. He states
that the department has for years been la
boring for improved postal conventions with
Great Britain, and that the negotiations
have resulted in the conclusion of new con-
ventions with that country and the North
German Union, reducing rates of letter
postage one-half, and establishing moderate
charges upon printed and other matter.
The negotiations opened with the French
Government for the same object are still
progressing. and it is hoped will result in
the conclusion of an improved postal ar
rangement with France, to come into opera
ton the beginning OF the next year.
Liberal conventions have been recently car
ried into operation with the Netherlands,
Belgium, Switzerland and Italy, under
which reduced rates have been established
to all parts of Europe and Asia.
He states that it will be the future policy
OF the department to still further reduce the
rates OF postage, and further simplify and
render uniform the details growing ont of
the exchange of correspondence with these
countries. The question of the further re-
ductlon OF the international letter rate be-
tween this country and Great Britain, re-
served by the third article of the present
convention, will come up for consideration
and action after the LIST of January next.
and it is hoped the British Government will
be willing to still further reduce the existing
rate so as to bring it to the lowest practica-
BILE standard

BRAuTY-How to secure clear, smooth,
beautiful, healthy skin, is the desire of all,
and this is within the reach of ALL The
skin becomes discolored, rough, eruptive,
by the virulent, unhealthy condition Of the
excretions and insensible perspiration-that
is, secreted by its functions, and expelled
through its pores The skin is one Of the
chief outlets for the expulsion of the hu-
mors or elements that the absorbent vessels
reject. to nourish and sustain the blood;
hence. these irritant humors poison the
delicate skin, aud we have Pimples, Blotch-
es, Sores, either simple or malignant, ac-
cording to the condition of the perspiration
and humors secreted by the skin Now,
the application of cosmetics only hide these
defects, and increase the irritant condition
of the skin. Use Heinitsh's Queens De-
light, and it will befound perfect remedy
for these disorders. M24

HoDsoNs CHoIcE.-The telegraph an
nounccs that, after considerable fillibuster-
ing, Solomon l.. Hoge, Rcpubican,) was
seated in the House of Representatives OF
Congress, yesterday, as the Representative
of this Congressional District. 1t will be
remembered that this seat was contested by
Col. Jacob f. Reed, (Democrat,) who re-
ceived a majority of 5000 votes over Hoge;
but Congress, in the exercise of discre-
tion which smacks strongly of party rule,
decided not to hear the claims of any one
who was ineligible when candidate by
reason of political disabilities Hence was
Hoge, who was the only other candidate,
seated. And if there is no other consolation
LETT us in this result, we may at least enjoy
the satisfaction of knowing that his pre-
sence in Congress will neccssitate very de-
sirable vacancy on the Supreme Bench of
this State.

The Cnbnn Question.

There Is at last, In relation to Cuban
affairs, something akin to union of feeling,
leading to similarity in the main features
OF the calls for immediate action on tthe
part of the Government of the United
States, in the tone of the press here and
elsewhere throughout the country. And it
is surely to be desired that the Washington
authorities will, ere long, find time to give
the subject the more serious attention it
demands. That Cuba must BE- governed in
consonance with our mutual interest is ms
clear to the governing element in othor ma
tions as it is to ourselves, and that the
changes necessary to the production of that
condition should be made at a time when
they can be effected with the least possible
humiliation to any government, is the we'll
defined right in the conduct of the case. 1t
is, therefore, in the light of present feeling,
passing events, and general anticipation,
perfectly clear that there cannot possibly
occur better ju1taposition of favorable
circumstances than exists at present for
firm but rightful interference of the Ameri-
can people, to protect their own and native
Cuban interests from needless injury to
rightfui change, and from altogether unne-
cessary bloodshed and loss of life to either
of the parties now in armed contention
there.
Were Cnba allied to Spain geographically,
or in any way rendering the dominance of
Spanish Government there mutually bene-
fetal, an effective expression on either side
might we'll be deemed unwarranted inter-
ference; but with the conditions recognized
as they are universally, and the geographi-
cal condition such as it is. the natural inte-
rests of Americans are acknowledged to be
such as TO legitimately warrant action which
under other circumstances might seem i'm
proper.
Any proper effort we may make is in
behalf of people of homogeneous indus
tries, lying, really, within the circle of our
own boundary, and commercially, and me-
chanioally. and socially identified with us;
while in all save the enforced duty of giving
sustenance to a stranger government, carried
on by stranger authority, entirely in the in
terest of stranger geople. Cuba has
nothing whatever in common with Spain
not even blood to any effective extent, and
therefore desires to govern herself as shall
best advance her interests in common with
those with whom, in the natural necessity
of her position and other substantial pecu-
liarities, she is naturally allied.
Ours is the position of nation allied by
every tie recognized as natural by nature it.
self, as well as by civilization, naturally in
terested that an island lying within in our
own waters, and commercially interviewer
in our trade, shall be privileged to direct
its own affairs and destiny. as shall, in the
nature of her case, seem best calculated to
insure the enjoyment of her naturally pro-
ductive soil to the natives by whom it is
cultivated, and by whom the system for the
use or disposal of their products should be
defined.

cheerfully accepted, and the Palmettoes will

We warn the Charleston boys that in their
trial of skill they will meet in our firemen
champions worthy of their best efforts. We
understand that, an evening or two since,
the Palmettoes accomplished, in precisely
four minutes, the test which is to be applied
for the prize. namely. running with the
