The postmaster of this city has been in corr
Repentance with the Post Office Departm emf. in
reference to the petition of several citizens ask
ing for lamp post boxes to be placed near the
depot and at the corner Of Main and Fifth
streets. The FIRST Asst P. NJ. Gen. replies
that such boxes form part of the Free Delv
cry system and the law contemplates that
collections from them shall b, made by letter
carriers under oath and bond. The application
Of tbs postmaster for four such boxes is there
fore declined. Cities which have upwards Of
$1,000 inhabitants are entitled to the carrier or
the Free Delivery system, bat the Postmaster
General may establish it in such other places
as he may deem proper. Until this system is
established in Richmond no boxes can be put
up under the sanction of the Department or of
the Richmond Pcstofice as branch oft. Mr..
Julian, however, ventures the opinion tina. the
law does not exclude any parties interested
from putting up boxes, or establishing other
places for the reception of Nail matter, and
providing for sending it to the postoftice, but
it would, Of course, be entirely an outside
matter and on their own responsibility. Mr..
Julian is ready to Cooperate with our citizens
in any effort to secure the adoption of the
Free Delivery system in this place soon
they may conclude there is any hope of sue
cess.

Congress is taking time by the forelock,
having already appointed committee to
make arrangements for the centennial an
niversary on the 4th of July, 1876. And
what is this committee doing, under this
premature appointment ? Why, junket-
ing around, at the public expense, on a
tour of inspection of the mills, manufacto-
ries, re6neries, in and around Philadel-
phia. What on earth have these factories
to do with the celebration of the 4th of
July, six years hence. These Congress
sional pleasure trips, to be paid for out Of
the public treasury, have become SO COM
mon as to call for public reprehension.
We shall next hear, probably, of Con-
gressional committees to all our fashiona-
BILE summer resorts, to San Francisco,
over the Pacific Railroad, to Winnipeg, tc
Darien, to San Domingo, to Utah, and tc
every place of note, at home or abroad
and all at the public expense.

Butler and Farnsworth had pleasant
passage-at-arms in the House on Wednes-
day; Butler called Farnsworth an "assas-
SIM" and Farnsworth called Butler a
"thief." Compliments will pass when
gentlemen meet. The question before
the House was upon sustaining the Presi-
dents veto of the bill for the extension of
the pistol patent owned by Rollin White.
Butler made speech in favor of White,
whercupon Mr.. Fransworth interrupted
him with the charge that he had received
fee of $4,000 for advocating the claim
ON the floor of the House. An inter-
change of bitter vituperation followed.
Butler said that he would not submit to
interruption from ga man who had more
beard than brains" Farnsworth retort-
ed that 'the member might curse his
beard, but he should not steal under the
shadow of his beard"

The franking privilege has grown into
a stupcndous abuse in this country. In
the hands of unscrupulous men it has be-
come powerful party engine, welded in
the interest of party, though paid for by
the common treasure. But, if it cannot
be abolished without substituting some
thing equally Objectionable, if not more
50. by way of direct appropriation for
postage to each member, why let US rather
"bear the ills we have, than fly to others
we know not Of" 1t seems to US that the
evil could be cured by appropriate legisla
tion, if there was an honest will to do so
by hedging it about by proper checks
and guards, without abolishing the privi
lege as proposed.

Judge Hoar has resigned the position of
Attorney-General of the United States,
and Amos T. Ackerman, of Georgia, has
been appointed, by the President, in his
place. Mr.. Ackerman, it is said, will not
be confirmed. 1t has been discovered
that he served eighteen months in the re-
bel army, and that he is the friend of
Alexander H. Stephens, of Georgia. How
came President Grant to make such a
blunder? Why did he not first consult
his Radical masters, before presenting the
name of Mr.. Alderman for the high posi-
tion of the Attorney Generalship? Mr.
Ackerman was confirmed on Thursday.
There are rumors of other changes in
the Cabinet soon to take place, but we
don't know whether they are anything
more than rumors,

THE DAR1Es CANAL.

1t is limited by our Panama correspon-
dent that the Darien expedition is a fail
ure. The object was to procure such a
survey of the isthmus as might demonstrate
the feasibility of an interoceanic canal:
but in this as in every prior effort to the
end since the sixteenth century the nat
ural obstacles encountered have been too
great for engineering skill In less than
half century after the discovery of the
New World, Philip III, conceived the idea
of connecting the Atlantic and Pacific by
a ship canal across the isthmus; but SO
futile was the survey ordered by him that
nothing ever came of it but royal man
date that the attempt should never be re-
newed, nor should any one even venture
to suggest such thing, on pain of death.
1t almost seems, in the light of subsequent
events, as if the curse of the cruel king
adhered to the sthmus from that day,
Not to speak of the horrible destruction
and devastation wrought upon it by the
buccaneers and the terrible fate of the Da-
rien colony, in which the flower of Scot
land went down, every attempt to cut
through this narrow neck of land has abso-
lutely failed. For over three hundred
years the effort has been made and the
lsthmus yet stands, the defer of human
skill and the enemy of commerce. Noted
rulers, among them this same Philip II.
and Bolivar, the South American libera-
tor; noted men of science, prominent a.
mong them Baron Humboldt; powerful
governments, those of France, of Spain,
OF England, the United States-have all
advised, hoped for, and attempted a Da-
rien canal. and the swamps, mountains,
and malaria of the isthmus have defed
them all. We seem to-day no nearer the
accomplishment of Philip the Seconds
dream than Philip found himself when his
Flemish engineers reported the route i'm
possible, and perhaps are even worse off
than the Spanish monarch, seeing that
with him the enterprise was an untried
one but three centuries of failure are be-
fore us. Once more the surveyors have
withdrawn, the French strikers. .-New

THE CRops ABROAD. The Mark Lane
Erpress," the great newspaper authority
on the grain market in England, states
that the continued drought in that coun-
try is strong evidence of the failure of the
wheat crop and large increase of prices.
In March last wheat was selling for So
78 the quarter, and at present brings $40
SO. The merchants in England base their
calculations on deficient crop in 1869,
and on probable short supplies this year
from the Baltic. Grain is also being sent
to the Continent, and medium quality
California white wheat at $12 48 per
quarter, free on board, was recently ship.
ped for Havre. The Mark Lane Erpres.
says that the transient dream of overload
ed granaries and endless supplies in Eng
land is fading away.
