Some of the Dema- cratlc members of the Comiulttce, however, are of upinfon that war is to be IDS!’Ehenlhd- and that ft poesiply cannot be avolded. They sy that thev haye reason fo think that the Becretary of State would be satisfied If o war should result from the pending troubles, on the assumption that a war would tend to strengriien the Administration by turning the attentl Republicans frum intestinal controversics, and Ly helping to consolidate the South fot the sup- port of the Adminlstration, Gen, Ord dots not feel apprehensive st the fong absence of Lieuts, Bullis aud Young in the Rla Grande country.

A POSTAOE WRANGLE, Solleitor Freeman, of the Post-Office Depart- ment, rendered a declsion yesterday of consid- crable interest to llllblishurs of uewspapers, The Postmaster at Clozinuatf had assumed that weekly Cincinnatt Gazettes sent out to Postmas- ters free In returts for spocttic services rendered tho nomm{wr company, in keeplog up its yosters and other shnilar matters, were not r-;mn to regular subscribers within the mean- ni of tho lasr, and that every such paper must Le prepald ot translont rates.

TR DEMOCRATIC IDEA. The Democrats, in thefr preparatfon of the Arm{ bill for the next fiacal year, are disposed to erlpplo tho army as much as posible, The old ex-Confederate and Bourbon hatred of the army canuot _be restrained. Domocratic nem- bers of the Houso Military Committes_say that the army now_conslsts of moro than 2,300 offi- cers nufrnrted in idlenens, at a cost of $5,000,000 aunually, and of rank and filc at n cost of $4,000,000. AL Republican member of the Aporopristions COrmmitteo-belloves tnat it is the purpose ol the Deutocrats to reducs the army to the lowest possible degre, and to force froin it, either by retircment or otherwise, the [njrom!nem. ofllcers who fought the battles of the nlun, 80 that, when the Democrats come {nto power, if they aver do, it will bo possiblo to organlze A new army “without the ofticers who fought the Southern battles asanucleus.
