NEW PosTOFFICEs. The Washington cor
reSnoldnnE Of the Haltinnre Sun SAYS

NEH IOSTOFFlCES.-Ihe W aSnllRtOn cor
respondent of the Baltimore Sun says -
Two places Of historic noto were yesterday
made postotIices in Virginia. While there ira
twenty.three Mount Vernons in the United
States that are postotices, the fountain froa,
which the name sprung has beon without postal
facilities. The subject WAS brought TO the atten-
ton of Postmaster General Key s few weeks
sgo, and it being understood that tho lady re.
gents desired a postofice thore as convenience,
is we'll for the business of the Mount Vernon
Association rs of the borhood, errar D..
ments wero made for an Office there. which vas
yesterday ordered 10 TO established, with j.
McH. HoiliogsWcrth SIS postmaster. 1t is
thought that the postottice there will derive
soEo especial revenue from visitors, who will
desire to send letter home direct from Mount
Vernon. The Mount Vernon ofIico will be sup
piled by the Washington and Glymont route
whose steamer carries the Mount Vernon pss-
sengers and has the monopoly ef landing there.
Another postcfice on the same route WSs also
established yesterday at Gunston, Fairfax CO.,
Va, the former sect of George Mason, the au-
thor of tho bill of rights OF Virginia. Gunston
is now owned by a company and e cooperative
farm is established there. David l.. Finch has
been appointed postmaster of the new postctlice.
Tho mails on this route will soon DO carried by
new steamer, now nearly ready. On tho
same route new office has also been established
on the Mary land side Of the river at Marshall
Hall, in Charles county, with James Little as
postmaster"

LONDON, May 20th.-The Times
continues to dwell on the necessity
of a British protectorate for Tur-
key in Asia.
The peace feeling is not quite so
buoyant as on yesterday. The un-
easiness is caused by the apparent
change in the attitude of Austria.
Austria is making demonstrations
unfavorable to Russia. However,
there is no doubt but that the Con-
gress will meet. A Berlin cores
pendent says the formal invita-
tons to the Congress will be issued
as soon as all the powers have an
swered the informal communica-
tion in regard to date and other
particulars. Bismarck has been
advised by his physicians not to
take part in the Congress, as per-
sonal attendance might prove too
