When the husband died there vas not & cent im the Rouse to pay | ‘uperal expenses, and one of the Trastees Ss obliged to go outand raise the money re- (wisite, on bis personal obligations. It will be remembered that the difficulty in the passage ofthe bill providing for the payment of the teschers, originates from the fact that the Board of Common Council have placed apon tacrider” providing for the payment of ar- Teages claimed to be due the colored schools. in consequence of the loose wording of botn the acts of Cengress relating to the portion to te paid the colored schools, there is much dis- pote as to the exact amount due them, and the dispute is leadmg to an in- wrminable discussion and bandying of the bill between the two Boards.

The British OBancellor of the Exchequer and Lord Montrcs:. the English Postmaster General. have promised to second the efforts of our own Postmaster Geveral “im carrying the postage reduction to its legitima te and fullest extent.” The intermediate steps already taken are bringing the resources of this country practi- cally nearer to tb” densely populated portio: of Europe.

THe MEXICAN Mission.—It is understood that th:re are quite @ number of applications on file at the State Department for the mission to Mexico. Among those most warmly urged for the place are Sylvester Mowry, (formerly delegate to Congress fgom Arizona,) of Prov: dence, R. 1., 8 cousin of Sensior Anthony, we believe; Col. Nugent. formerly Washington correspondent of the New York Herald, and afterwards connected with the San Francisco Herald, and E.L. Plumb, the present Secre. tary of Legation at Mexico. Col.

A long ses. Sion of Congress is fruittal with schemes for depleting the public Treasury.
