POSTAL MATTERS.

The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial says: "The couu.
try has been generally misinformed in re-
lation to Congressional legislation with re-
gard to the postal laws this session: Mr..
Farnsworth's bill reducing letter postage
to two cents, and providing for the prepay
ment of postage on all mail matter, passed
the House but failed in the Senate. There
was an amendment TO the Postoffice Ap-
preparation Bill, which repeats all existing
acts with regard to free mail matter. This,
of course, includes exchanges between
newspapers and free postage on papers Cir
culated in the counties where they are pub
lished. This law takes effect on the lst
OF july" This law viii bear especially
hard on country newspapers. The late
Congress, which was largely Radical in
both houses, appears TO have entertained a
snite toward peWspaperS.
Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1868-1875, 1873-03-16

IT appears there is fashion in disease as
well as in dress, and the New Y ork Tribune
thinks this astonishing. 1t says: His ex-
Imperial Majesty, the late Bonaparte, hav-
ing died of "embolism," the doctors on
this side the water are discovering great
many cases Of it. Last week in Ohio a
young lady died from what the local prac-
titioner declared to be "heaIt-clot, or en-
bolism Of the main flue of the heart" But
the damsel was not dead after all, for she
revived within an hour, when it was found
that she had only been choked by bit Of
chewing gumi Quite mortifying this was,
both for the respectable old family practi-
toner and for the young lady.

THE Washington correspondent of tie
New York Times writes, and that paper,
which ought to be unimpeachable authority
in such matters, prints it, that the thirteen
appropriation bills passed by the last Con-
gress aggregate Sl95,536, 1874; while last
year the appropriations amounted to only
$l70,27S,564. 1t is moreover stated that
5000, 900 of the SIS, 100000 excess is CON-
posed of sundry items "struck from last
years list for political efsct," and replaced
now, We presume, on account of political
necessity. Where the remaining SO, 000,-
900 come from, the Times does not inform
US, but In view of the many professions of
retrenchment and reform made by the Radi-
cal party, this information would be exceed
ingly interesting to taxpayers. -..

TIE RIGHT OLE PETITION.

Noticing the extent TO which the "right
of petition" is exercised in England, from
the fact that between the 7th and the 18th
of February as many as 32l petitions were
presented in the House of Commons, some
of which were signed by thousands of per-
sons, the Philadelphia Press says: "With
us the right of petitioning Federal or State
legislation is very scantily exercised"
There is substantial reason for this in some
cases at least. When the people of Louisi-
ana proposed to send a hundred of their
best citizens TO Washington to lay their
grievances before the President, that func-
tionary had his super-serviceable Attorney
General telegraph Gov. McEnery, "Your
visit with hundred citizens win be una
vailing so far as the President is concerned.
His decision is made and will not be
changed.D The Autocrat of all the Rus
sias could not have returned more
naughty answer to che humble petition of
his subjects. Then when these same Lou
isiana people petitiOned Congress for relief
from the usurpation which was crushing
them, their petition was treated With only
little bette- than contempt. @

To the Trade of Arkansas,

Tennessee,

WE, THE UNDERSIGNED, MER-
wv chants of Louisville, desire TO as
sure our friends and the trade gene
rally of Arkansas, Mississippi and West Tennes-
see that ample facilities exist to ship all goods
from Louisville, via Nashville without change of
cars, to any points by railroad on the Mobile and
Ohio, Mississippi Central and Louisville and
Memphis roads, and the rates Of freight will be
the same as heretofore.
In addition to these railroad facilities to reach
Memphis with freights destined for Arkansas,
we have ample means of shipment by boats to
Memphis on through bills of lading to all points
on Arkansas and White rivers.
This announcement is made to our friends and
customers to correct an impression, which has
been sought to be mlde by our competitors in
other cities, that the reak on the Louisville and
Nashville Railroad at GAINESVILLE, Tenn, will
prevent Louisville merchants from shipping
their goods to the South and Southwest.
