This was afterwards reduced, and finally withdrawn, when the malls were sent overland; Lut fn 1560 the country was enddled with an expense of $300,000 a year for & monthly line to Chinn; hetween that date and the be; ginning of this year 85,000,000 was pald out of tho Treasury on that subsidy, while less than $150,000 was received in postages, With the closc of last year that fncubus upon the country was cast off. Tho present effort of the Com- pany secks to fasten It upon us agaln, and, un- less this fresh attempt to piunder tho Treasury is vigorously opposed and denounced by the public press, It Is by no means certain that we aliali eseape the threateued Ingiction, Benator Hamlin, Chafrman of the Senate Postal Committee, favors the subsidy.
