THE POSTAL CONVENTION.

Peace has il, arts as well as war; and it is
pleasant, while certain portion of the cOun-
try is full OF Distractions to find body OF
men gravcly cor rsdering certain humanizng
influences By which the peace and happiness
of the future may De promoted. The Southern
Postal Convention at Fortress Monroe rightly
Judges that nothing is more likely to secure
the material and moral prosperity of the South
than a well-orderod mail servIce-that flower
and crown OF civilization and public enlght-
enment. The Civil War must have done much
to demoraizc the Postal Service at the South,
nor had it previously been in the most efficient
condition. The attention of the Department
has already been directed to existing deficiencies,
and we are encouraged by the assurance that
everything will be done to secure fast mail
trains, and the appropriations by Congress nee
essary for their support.
There was something worthy of attention in
the letter sent by Mr.. Key to the Conven-
ton. He expressed himself profoundly graft
fled at the orderly an a.niable condition o.
"affiirs 1T the South, under an excitement so
general over many States Of the Union" 1t
is our turn now, iC seems, to harn0nlze dls-
cordant clements, and to learn how difficult 1t
NAV sometimes be to keep eXcitabe pOpula-
tiOns in good order. 1t is possible that our own
experiences may make US a little more chari-
table. At least We can understand that a method
combining respect for law with good VIII
and kindness, beautiful as it ia in theory, is 'y
no means practically impossible.

VOV no THEY LIKE Hf

Two wears ago a quarrel was raging between
tLe regular Tammany Democrats, under the
lead of John Kelly, and the Democratic strik-
ers. maj ,haled by the rebellious John Morris
sey. The cause of their disagreement was
nerfectly plain, and there was even something
refreshing in the frankness with which Nor
rissey avowed the purpose OF his partlsans 10
90 for the public money. Kelly at that time
was making sincere attempt to cut down the
city expenditures and stop the plunderlng.
He had reused the ire of the mob by re-
fusng to pay more than the market
price to laborers on the public works, and
on that point the "Independent Democracy "
took open issue with him, and pushed forward
John Morrissey as a. the worbingman's friend.'
In su- struggle Kelly mad reason to look
for .he support of all respectable taxpayers.
But the Custom House faction threw the whole
strength of the Republican party on Morris
sey's side and in this plain struggle between
decent Government and the C0mmuniStic labor
demagogues large majority of the respecta-
bic tax-payers were made to vote with the
demagogues.
Ii was serving notice upon Iammany that
il could rot count apOn the common sense OF
the better claSScS even III hU fluNlEtb'F INV
that, and Tammany has profted by the lesson.
Mr.. Kelly has fallen back upon the great un-
washed. He will not offend them again, and
if we are not anxious that he should save our
money for u.s. we do not think he will rum
bin,se.f trying. We see the consequences to
day, when the official organ of Tammany Hall
and ot Mr.. john Kelly takes up the cause OF
the strikers, encourages them to hold out,
urges day after day that the railways should
be co; PEELED t. compromise" with them, or
IL Other words to Vi Id to the violence OF
mob. It Is morally certain that Tammany
Hall will rule the city Of Newfork for many
years 70 come, and it is a matter OF grave
concern to the taxpayers to know by what
instrunentalties It's power will be exer-
cised, ald what policy it will pursue in dealing
with the pubic funds. If it must rely upon
the s1rst. the most ignorant, the most reck-
less elements f the Democratic party, there
can ,,n 10 doubt what course 1t will pursue.
And yet we dare say If John Morrissey pre-
sents himself again this year in the disguise of
"the workingman's friend" the city Repubi-
can organizations will allow him to use them

When the insurrectiOn against civil authority
has been quelled, when mob-law has ceased,
and the strikers leaIn that other men are just
As free to work as they are to quit work, 1t
will be proper TO consider what wages ought
to he paid for the services rendered by rail-
way employees. 1t may be well to place on
record few facts which serve to cast light
on that question The railroads have been
pushed into bankruptcy, OF to Its verge, IN
pa1t because they have paid to employees
wages far above the amount to which they
were entitled, in consideration of wages paid
before the war, in consideration Of the change
in prices of necessaTies OF life, or in consider
alton of the receipts Of railways for transport
alton. 1t il very important Tor railway man
ayers TO know these facts, as many of them
do not. and it will bo found absolutely neces-
sary for railway employees to consider and act
upon them, if the great interest from which
they get their bread is to be able to pay de-
cent wages 10 them OF 10 anybody else.
Tn 1850 the railways tariff basel then as
they are now upon the rate to Chicago, we're 50
cents per 100 lbs. on wheat for six months-un-
iii Nav and after 0ctober-62 cents in October,
80 cents in July, August and September, and
A5 cents in May and June. The average by
months in 1860 was SO cents per 100 lbs. on
Grain. Bnt the average during the last twelve
months has been only 2s centS-less than half
as much. Nor has the reduction of receipts
beep confined to the grain traffic The aver
ooe receipts per ton per mile in cents and
decimals for all freight moved by the leading
railways in 1860 and during their last fiscal
