Washington, Dec. 1.-Secretary Shaw. Post
master General Payne and Attorney General
Knox have decided to go to New-York and
lect the new postoffice site, the conclusions of
their subordinates in New-York being usatis-
factory.
The Cabinet officers composing the commits
sion disa gree with the proposition that two
story workshop is all that is needed. They think
a building commensurate with the dignity of the
government and suitable TO the greatest postal
centre in the world should he erected, and that
it should he of such imposing height to be
a notable landmark in the national metropolis.
They have virtually decided that if much money
is to be spent for site the building should
adjoin one of the great railway stations, so tina,
mail trains may he loaded directly from the
postoffice; and if this great advantage is inn
practical bic, either alongside of the proposed
PENNSYLVANIA station at the Grand Central,
compelling the continued of mail wagons or
tubes then site should be taken at such a
distance from those stations would enable
the government to buy comparatively cheap
property. The commission may go to New-Yo
