WASHINGTON, D. c., July I, 1874

WAsHINGToN, u. ". July Z, 1874.
The resignation of the Postmaster General Of
the Post Office Department. to resume the practice
of law, has created great deal of comment here.
Generally it is supposed that Cabinet officer
has some unaccounlable way of making money
outside of his salary, and therefore such posi-
ton is not only considered honorable but lucra.
tive. Such, however, is not the case, as gensr-
al thing. But per contra, it requires man of
means to do the honors OF Cabinet position
The $4,000 salary is mere bagatelle Whether
or not Cabinet position should necesstate such
apparently extravagant expenditure is question
that has been open for discussion ever since the
formation of our Government. Ex-Postmaster
General Cresswell was we'll provided with this
worlds goods even before he was made U. S.
Senator from his State, and with economy, it is
stated he is still we'll to de. He proposes to enter
into business in bis profession here in Washing
ton, and will doubtless find it more lucrative
than being Postmaster General While he is a
stakeholder in a new bank about to be started
here, he will not at present connect himself with
it as salaried officer.
The appointment of Ex- Governor Jewell, of
Conn, to succeed Mr.. Cresswel, is well received.
Not among the army Of office-seekers could there
be found a more worthy and competent man to
accept the portfolio of the Post Office Department
Hon. JAS W. Marshall yesterday took the oath
OF 0fhce and commenced TO act as Postmaster
dd interim until the return of the new Postmaster
General from his mission in Russia.
Some of the opposition journals, among them
the Baltimore Sun, continue TO make contemptu-
Gus filings at General Howard, despite the final
report of the court martial in his favor. Some
of these jackals have stated that there was only
a majority of one in the vote on the acquitlal,
when the fact is that it was unanimous upon the
principal point Of the report, viz: that General
Howard was 'not guilty upon legal, technical,
or moral responsibility in any of the offenses
charged"
The labored and captious argument of Judge
Advocate General Holt to indnca the President
to revise the findings of the court was treated by
the President with the contempt it deserved, and
yet the jackals try to make something out of the
bubbles of that disappointed official and the Sun
even attempts to insult the members of the court,
composed as it was of the best talent of the Army,
many Of whom were political opponents of Gen
eral Howard, by referring to the unanimous
findings as "whtewash." Nothing but the life
blood and dishonor OF their political enemies will
satisfy these partisan grave diggers.
The new Commissioners who now govern the
District Of Columbia began work yesterday
Lieut.. Hoxie is the executive officer of the Com
mission and will supervise the completion of all
unfinished improvements in the District, estima ties
Of which will be prepared this week, and the
manner Of completion will at once be decided
upon, LIFE.

EX-GOVERNOR JEwELL.-When Postmaster
General Creswell resigned the portfolio of the
Postoffice Department, President Grant deci-
ded to select his successor from one Of the New
England States. Hence the appointment OF
Mr.. Hale. But after mature deliberation he
declined to accept the position. President
Grant then rendered the appointment to Ex-
Governor Marshal Jewell of Connecticut As
he is Minister to Russia, residing at St. Pc
tersburg, he had to be reached by telegram.
He replied promptly that he would accept the
position. Mr.. Jewell has been three times
elected Governor of Connecticut, first in 1869,
then in 1871 and 1872. He was defeated by
English in 1868 and in 1870. He made dis
Greet and creditable Governor and is popular
with the people. President Grant appointed
him Minister to Russia in 1873, and he had
been filing the duties of his position about a
year when rendered the appointment of Post
master General. He does not much like dip
lomatic life and was about leaving for home on
leave of absence of two months, when he re-
ceived the telegram rendering him the Post.
master Generalship.
J. W. Marshal, First Assistant Postmaster
General has been appointed to fill the place
until Mr.. Jewell shall take charge of its port

Letter from PhiladcIphia.
PHILADELPHIA, July 3, 1874


The approaching Centennial has given a
great impetus to public and private improve
ments here, and signs of prosperity are to be
seen on every side. The mammoth grain ele
vator of the International Improvement Com
pany, at the junction of the Delaware and
Schuylkill rivers. is rapidly approaching com
pletion, and will be ready for grain in Septem-
Der. The capacity of the elevator viii! be $780,
600 bushels, and its cost, including the wharf,
will make total of $4,000. The new freight
depot of the Pennsylvania railroad will be ready
for use in August. 1t is located at Walnut and
Dock SITS. and is 472 feet long by l16 wide
1t is to be hoped that this great corporation
will erect at no distant day a handsome pas
senger depot here. The huge shed which they
now use for that purpose, and which was once
before in use by the Sanitary Fair which was
held here in 1864, is poor apology for depot
As this is the terminus of the line, our city
certainly deserves a depot, at least as comfort
able as our other railroads provide for their pa
irons. 1t has long been felt here that it was
strange that the company should build such
nish it so cxtravagantly for their EN- ployees to
occupy, and that the patrons of the road should
have such poor accommodations.
Active operations will soon be commenced,
on our new Post Office building, at Ninth and
Chestnut SITS. The length of the new building
will be 43s feet, breadth 1854 feet, height to main
cornice 102 feet, and to the top of the central
dome 1875 feet. The material used in its con
struction will be granite, and it will be entire
ly 6re-proof. no wood being used in its con-
struction. The total cost of the building is
limited to 100000, exclusive of the cost of
the site. The contracts for the erection of the
main buildings of the Centennial Exhibition
have been awarded to Mr. r. J. Dobbins, a we'll
known builder of this city, he being the lowest

UNDERTOOK TO BE EXECUTED.-The Supreme
Court Of Pennsylvania decided the Undertook
case on the LIST inst. That court reviewed the
ahS sh Rg aa
of the Chester county court directing the record
remanded to that court for the execution of the
prisoner. 1t is singular coincidence that the
court should have rendered a final decision in
his case exactly one year from the date that he
committed the murder. The case was a very
singular one in several respects. The combina-
ton between Udderzook and w. S. Goss, his
brother-in-law, to insure the life of the latter
in several insurance companies and then de-
fraud them and then the murder of Goss by
Undertook, apparently to reap the benefit of
the fraud. Then came the arrest, trial and
conviction of Undertook for the crime. Two
days after the decision was rendered by the
Supreme Court, Joseph H. Perdue, ESQ.,, coun-
sci for the prisoner, sent him copy of the pub.
ished decision and waited upon him the fol-
lowing day. Undertook did not exhibit much
trepidation at the information. He solicited
Mr.. Perdue to make an effort to have him par
doned. But he was informed that he could ex-
pect no clemency from that source and that it
is now his duty to prepare to meet his doom as
a condemned criminal.

REDUCTION OF THE DEBT.-During June there
was a slight reduction Of the public debt but
the figures are not so large as we could wish
The reduction amounted TO $780, 1864. We
should much prefer that this reduction be ten
millions instead of two and that the reduction
for the year were one hundred millions instead
of little less than FIVE. We do not belong
to that class of people who believe national
debt is national blessing. But with reduc-
ton of the expenses at the rate of more than
twenty seven millions under the appropra-
ton for the current year and with rigid scru-
tiny in the collection of the taxes it is to be
hoped that we shall see reduction of forty or
fifty millions this year instead of five millions.
We have no kind of doubt that the American
people will patiently bear any amount of tax
alton that is requisite for the steady reduction
of the debt at a reasonable rate. 1t is not tax
alton for the purpose of paying any honest
debt that excites the growing spirit in the
breasts of the people, but the inefficiency Of
the policies of the government and the men
who control its purse in its many expenditures.
Give US thorough going conduct of the fnan
ces, steady reduction of the debt, economy
in all things and adequate taxes to meet all
demands.

DECLINED.-Hon. VIM. J. Albert has perem p
torily declined allowing the use of his name as
a candidate for denomination for Congress in
the 9Th Maryland district. The reasons given
in his published declination are that "the du-
ties of Representative have proved too arduous
and exacting for him to undertake its cares and
responsibilities for second term" "Advanc-
ing years and declining health admonish him
to leave the field of politics to resume the path
of private life, more congenial to his tastes and
habits
Mr.. Albert has served the first session of the
Add Congress and be bas been faithful to his
convictions of duty. The fact that he consid-
ers "the duties too arduous and exacting" for
him is convincing proof that he has been dill
gent in their discharge. While we do not en-
dorse all that Mr.. Albert did in the session just
terminated, we believe that he was scrupulous-
ly conscientious in every act and VOTE He oc-
cupies an enviable position at this time. There
are a number of distinguished gentlemen
spoken of as his successor in that district.
