ADMIRAL WoRDEN SUED FOR LIBEL-An in
terestiDg case was argued on Saturday last be-
fore Chief Judge Brown, in the court of common
pleas. Ii was In the matter OF the libel suit of
Prof. Bernard Maurice, formerly OF the L. =.
naval academy, against Admiral WOrden, for
alleged defamatory and lfbeloUs statements
written In the form OF an Endorsement on said
MaurceS resignation. The reflections were
against his habits and morals The case on Sat
u1day was heard on defendants demurrer TO
replication OF plaintiff, and Is preliminary 10 a
jury trial on the facts. The suit is "A removed
one from Anne Arundel county, and the dam
ages are laid at S20,000. There is another case
between the same parties on a different ques-
ton, on the April docket, ls79. The points IN
volved were ''ceded territory" as 10 whether or
not the processes Of the state can be served on
a party residing on the grounds of the naval
academy, which, it is contended, is not ia the
state OF Maryland, having been ceded 10 the
United States. There was quite an animated
discussion upon the point. IL the naval academy
is not In the state OF Maryland, where is it? The
other point was whether or not the suit was
barred by limitation. The cause of the plaintif
was ably presented by Messrs. Charles J. Bona
parte and John Thomson Mason, and that OF the
defendant by Mr.. John III. Thomas and Hon. A

The City Post Office auc~siou.

Editor Sdr:-If the city post Office is 10 be
removed from Ie general post Office building,
there are many reasons why il should be To-
Gated as near 10 il as practicable. The conNe-
nience OF having them near each other could
hardly be over estimated. Think Of the i'm
mense quantity OF mail matter constantly pass
ing between them, including the quarterly re-
turns, dead letters, &C. Then the location is
not only the most central, perhaps. that could
DE selected, but it also has the advantage OF
being near the junction OF three street rail-
roads; and when both the general and city
post Offices are near together, strangers could
never be at loss about them. Were il practical
Die. the better plan would be TO lower the floor
OF the present one story building extending into
the court, TO level OF the street, and continue
the city office where ft is. This would make il
two stories, and give an additional number OF
rooms. In any event. however, the small
square directly west OF the general post Office
should be secured and utilized, as it may be
needed, by the government. Any diversion
from this self evident proposition win be a mis-
take. Very respectfully,
