SNExAEPLED PROSPERITY.

The Herald, of Sunday last, con-
tained one hundred and eight columns
-, printed matter, sixty-eight of which
Tere advertisements. In this unmis-
takble proof of it's popularity aud
prosperity, the Herald finds good
cause for seH-gratulation. For the
trst time since the foundation of the
paper, " The quadruple sheet of ninety
SIX columns fell SO far short Of the
demands for space of advertisements
and news, as to compel the issue of a
twelve column supplement in addi-
ton" In concluding long article
accounting for this unexampled pros
perity, it says
We have not. in this general article,
dwelt on any of the special features of
the HcralI's work of late except in the
nature of advertisements. We have
said that they typified the commercial
activity of the nation. At present
they indicate a highly encouraging
outlook for the Spring trade in all its
branches A markedly severe Winter
Is passing away, and business RECEIVERS
from its hybernation with wonderful
celebrity. We present to our readers,
with hearty cOngratulatlon, the Herald
rs the best evidence of this sturdy
awakening. With it We wish to present
1he moral of this days issue, that it
lnstances prosperity because the nation
Is prosperous, and because in its earn
estness, energy, activity and courage
it is the representative journal Of the
whole people.

TEE POSTAL CAR DIFFICULTY
r.cS PROBABLE SETTLEMENT.

The postal car difficulty seems to
have been settled temporarily at least,
lud IN favor Of the Postmaster-Gen-
eraL. At meeting in New York Sat-
nrdayevening, attended by representa-
.!ves OF the Erie railway, the New
York Central, the New York, New
Haven and Hartford, the Connecticut
River, the Philadelphia, Wilmington
..nd Baltimore, the Pennsylvania Cen
trail, and the Central railway OF New
Jersey, the matter was considered, and
the result was the following letter,
which was forwarded to the Postmas-
ter-General
"Johu 4. IT. CresrcH, Postmaster

Believing, as We do, that Congress in
tends to allow the Postmaster-Gene
to makereasopable compensation to the
railroad companies for mail service, and
being fully assured that they will

Intention is not carried out in the new
aet. It Is with great satisfaction that
rse are advised of the recent favorable
action of the Senate, which we conf
IDENTIFY expect will lead to thorough
Investigation and al impartial determi-
:-.tion of what will constitute q
REASONABLE compensation. We will
ilnInediateiy petition the Senate to
grant to the railroads an early hearing,
and we respectfully ask that the Post
naster-Genaral OR an authorized agent
OF his department will be present

khe same desire to serve the public,
which has induced us to run postal
ears for many years past, notwith-

whatsoever for the service, we shall,

compel the companies to use the
postal cars at the old rates. It is said,
indeed, that the Attorney-General has
given it as his opinion that the Fed
eral Government has the right, under
the Constitution, to regulate all
railroad, steamboat and transportation
companies, snd to dictate in what
manner the mails shall be carried.
Acting upon this, We presume, It Is
said the Postmaster General has
uttered threats Of compulsion by
future acts Of Congress. If not moro
directly by the fanny" Indeed, if
the Boston Post be correct, he has not
only done all this, but he has sug-
gested to mobs the propriety Of tearing
up rails beside" The position Of tho
Postmaster-G General is not relieved Of
any embarrassment by the knowledge
Of the fact, If it be true, as
stated, that he was :. actively infiu-
entail in so modifying the llaw last
summer that he was curtailed OF all
option in future arrangements With the
railroads; nor viii it be in any degree
relieved when it is remembered IN
, connection with all this how his hand
itches to get hold Of all the telegraph
lines in the country. > -. a r.
We do not see how railroads can be
made to carry the mails without being
paid fair price therefor, any more
than factories can be made to sell their
cloths for less than the cost of manu-
featuring We have constitutional
horror of monopoles and a wholesome
appreciation of the dangers to be ap-
pretended from gigantic and grasping
! corporations, but we are nevertheless
of opinion that even railroad corpora
tions have some rights that the Gov
ernment, at least, is bound to respect.
When pirate property, even that OF
q railroad corporation, can be taken
by the Government without jus4 COM
pensation, President Grant will Lack
nothing save the name, if even that,
/ of being an absolute monarch. .+..-
! Unless somo arrangement be made,
| the public will suffer serious inconve-
nience. Now, mails are distributed in
the postal cars and are dropped at way
stations. But when the postal cars
| are taken of, the mails win go to dis
! tributipg offices, and there will be q
delay Of from one to three days. It is
estimated that the additional force aud
room which will be required at the
distributing Offices will cost more than
the railroads demanded 80 that there

n,eut, and the public will be seriously
annoyed Ivy delays.

property Will be crushed also. IF the
corporations prove the stronger,

THE POSTAL CAR gz9.zgoGass

THE POSTAL CAR lyaAszeEGr5- 10.
AS our readers know, peace does
not reign in the Department @ Mr..
Postmaster-Gen eral CressWoll. The diff
ficulty arises primarily from difference
Of opinion between him enl certain rail
road corporations controlling the prin-
cipal lines centreinr IN New York city
IN regard to the manner in which the
mails shall be ira sported and the
compensation to be paid therefor.
These corporations have united il a
notice to the Postofhce Department
that after to-day they viii not attach
postal cars to their trains unless their
demands for increased compensation
are complied with. The demand of
the companies was presented to the
Department on the 9th OF JANUARY
and read in the Senate on the 2lst OF
February, two weeks before tho adj
journment of Congress. Tue ground
OF this demand Oh the part Of these
corpora ions, Il is said, is that the
compensation which they now receive
for carrying the mails in special cars,
which are, to all iItouts and purposes,
travelling postoMces on wheels, is no
greater than was paid twenty years
ago, when the mails were carried, like
SO much freight, III one end o. he

Then the mails, with the execution, Of
some small way mails. we're delivered

were received, to be assorted at tie

arrival. Now, since 1854, when tie

moro road, special ears, warmed AMI
lighted, with accommodations for

provided, in Which the mails are assorted

Of which, III the opinion OF sj,c ON

increase Of pay.
If this statement be irne. i. would
seem, that these corporations have
given due and ample notice both
to Congress and the Department, that
OIL and after to-day they will de-
cline to run r ostal railway cars
for the accommodation Of the mails,
but will in lieu thereof resume their
former practice of devoting to mail
service portions of cars which are at
the same time used for other branches
OF railway transportation. sat

30, From the Kanaas City News
a Major Gener1l I'm the Cutter.

A Major General I'm the Cutter.
To-day there WIS man going about
the streets of this city, ragged, dirty,
and ;penniless, subsisting on free
lunches and the charities of gamblers,
and has not slept in q bed for months,
who, during the war, was one of the
most dsshiag cavalry officers in the
Union army. and was promoted from
the, rank of first Lieutenant to full
Brigadier and brevet Major General
for brilliant exploits on the field Oh
battle, and who, for q long time, had q
large and important command. x -
- He has been here for two or three
months under an assumed name, being
Ashamed To- dim the bri1hancy of his
record in the service of his country by
an exhibition of his degradation under
his former honored name. He is gen.
orally very reticent, having little to dc
with any one or talking but little, save
when ''engineering" for; drink, a,
which he is remarkably successful.
Night before last, while lying help.
lessly drunk in the rear part of 6
Third street saloon, some men though,
to play q joke on him by stealing hit
shirt, and proceeded to strip him.
Underneath his shirt, and sus.
pended by a-string around his neck
was o small canvas bag, which the
men opened and found it to contain
his commission as brevert major-gen
eral, two eongratulatory letters, one
from Grant and one from President
Lincoln, q photograph of little cur
of hair--a chestnut shadow" tina,
doubtless one day crept over the brow
of some loved one.
When these things were discovered
even the half-drunken men who four6
them felt a respect for the man:
former greatness, and pity for his fu1
len condition, quietly returned the bas
and its contents to where they fount
them,2 and replaced the sleeper's
clothes upon him. Yesterday q new:
reporter tried to interview the man
and endeavored to find ont something
of his hfe in the past few years, but he
declined to communicate anything
He cried like child when told how
his right name and former position
were ascertained, and with tears trick
ling his checks, said: 'fFor Gods sake
sir, don't publish my degradation, OF
my name at least, if you are deterrnin
ed to say something about it. It is
enough, that I know myself, how low ]
have become Will you promise that
much? It wi l do no good, but 1T vii
DO my friends . great deal of harm, as
fortunately, they think died in South
America, where went ut the close of
the war" TO, .''r J.
