Tue Posr Orrice Deranrment.—In the remarks which we made yesterday, and the extracts which we gave from other publications, we intended to exhibit the utter worthlessness of the General Post Office Department, and the gross injustice of its present head, in his recent attempt to enforce his claim of a monopoly of the carrying business. We did not intend to reflect on the head of our City Post Office, who is ever attentive and efficient, but to expose a system which subjects the public to grievous wrongs. Such an institution as a General Post Office, by its organization over eo large a territory, should be abje to transmit correspondence and the daily news journal, which is an essential in an enlightened republic, with promptitude and econory. The great commercial cities, however, have found that it subjects them to injurious delays, and that private individuals, without the extensive advantages which a General Post Office establish- ment must necessarily possess, and the aid of an organized, government bureau, can perform the duty more efficiently, more economically, and with fa promptitude which is now requisite in business transactions. The Postmaster-General assumes the right to compel submission to his tardy mail conveyance, but he will find in the end that he could as eflectually substitute the Diligence of France, or the six inside stage coach of England a century ago, for the easy, convenient, and rapid railroad carriage of the present day, as a means of transit to the traveller, as to bow the ecmmunity in willing submission to hs cumbrous, slow, expensive, and ill-managed Department. The wants of society, and the spirit of the age, are not to be thwarted and obstructed by Mr. Wickliffe’s antiquated system and machinery, and why should he require it? We may be ia error, but if our conception is acorrect one, it may turn out that a selfish and puerile vanity will sacrifice toits gratification the interests of an entire community. If Mr. Wickliffe can enforce the reg- ulations which he has prescried, all classes of society will suffer to an amount and ina degree which cannot be properly estimated; but Mr. Wickliffe’: department may possibly exhibit a larger amount of receipts, and thus he will be for- nished with a proof of efficient management, which may give him a fleeting aud mistaken fame among aciass of partial friends, or aflord him an unsiable foundation whereon to erect his hopes of further public favors. He has yet to leara that beth law makers and Jaw executors have more enduring laurels in the succese of measures for the advance- ment of society, and the promotion of the conveni- ance snd comforts of the separate individuals who constitute the whole, than in the gross amount of revenue which may be wrung from them unde- i» =D. wvarcud agaly, and by previous publications of the faw bearing on the subject, we have shown that Mr. Wickliffe is guilty of an unjustifiable and tyrannical exercise of power which does not belong to him, and which none of his predecessors have ventured to assume. If he were right, his conduct would reflect on men who have occupied his present position with creater advantage to the Republic than we dare ever ex- pect from his administration ; but we will not out- rage their fair fame by entertaining such a disperag- ing thought. 1f the law could be made to bear the interpretation which he gives to it, there have been Postmasters who would have discovered it before Mr. Wickliffe ever dreamt of wearing the honors of that station ; and that he will fail in his crusade against the press, is as certain as the revolutions of the seasons Progriss or Stream NavicaTion—TRiaL oF Srexp.—We have another improvement in Steam navigation to notice. It is ia the following. The U.S. Steam ship Princeton, propelled under a new principle in steam machinery, arrived here yesterday morning in 213 hours frou Newcastle, Dejaware. She then went down to Sandy Hook, by the deep water channel, in one hour and thirty- uine minutes against the flood tide and a strong head wind. We understand that her speed and other qualities exceed Captain Stockton’s mest sanguine expecta- tions. Shecame up to the Phenix Foundry, pre- paratory to taking her guns aboard, and will, it is sai’, have atrial of speed with the Great Western to-day from the East River.

We last night saw an omuibus in Broadway which had thus broken down, ani was rendered useless for the preseat, and during the Jast two weeks we have seen about half a dozen similar accidents, for the repairing of which our city fathers ought in justice to pay Mx. J. Honstxy Paumen —This distinguished fiaancier and banker has, we understand, decided upon remaining among us this winter, his im- mense interests be1og of too much moment to ad- mitof his absence. Mr. Palmer expresses, we hear, every confidence in the ultimate payment of the States’ obligations, and evinces pertect good feel- ing in his negotiations with those indebted to him. He has received the most marked attentions from our citizens generally, and is deservedly respected and esteemed by all From Curna.—The ship Morrison, Capt. Benson, arrived at a late hour last night, in 136 days from Canton. By herwe have received Canton papers to the 3d June—but they contain nothing of im portance.

The advantages of which these anaual exhibitions are promotive are so great as to entitle the institu- tion to the nations! support. They stimulate com: petition in invention and execution, and thereby contribute to the comfort and convenience of soci+ ety. But New York, the point of the United States to which all the rest is attracted, should po sess a permanent exhibition, in which inventions can be examined by visitors who are unable to attend at the precise period when the Fair of the Institute is held, and whence genius can not only derive gratifi- cation, but imbibe inspiration, whose influence shall be felt to our remotest territory. With these views, we are pleased to find that an effort is being made to establish a perpetual Fair or Polytechnic Exhibition, We have read a circular on this subject, from which we make the following extract, explanatory of the contemplated objec: It is proposed that the several assoeiations of this city, formed tor the promotion of arts, sci and literature, co-operate in openi+g a practical Th for the exhibi- tion of new inventions and works of art, with specimens of superior manufacturing skill ; and in which models of machines, vessels, &c., could be set in motion by steam power, or illustrated by the use of Croton water ; the whole to be accompanied by regular courses of lectures. Such an exhibition, it is believed, could not fail to at- tract cro of visiters of every age and sex, and be the means of imparting valuable information in a cheap and amusing form, and also have a tendency to divert the minds of the young fiom the haunts of dissipation and idle shows. It would be an institution in which all our citizens and organized societivs should feel a deep interest. To carry it out fully, will require, and should engage, the united elforts of all. For the establishment of such an institution the incipient steps have been taken, and we doubt not the great and good results of which it must neces- sarily be productive, will commend it to the im- mediate attention and advocacy of all who love the progress of science and the well being of their fel- low man. A convention has been suggested to confer on this subject, to be held here on the 2d of November, and we anticipate an encouraging com mencement and progress of a Polytechnic Fair, which the United States require and are as capable to support with credit and advantage as any nation on the face of the earth. The attendance to-day was very great, and amongst the others there was Captain Yohe, with his corps of National Guards, from Easton, Penn., whose soldierly appearance has attracted so much notice and attention. They were received by General Tallmadge, Pre- sident ot the Institute, General Chandler, and other Members of the Committee. Oa being introduced, Com. D: Kay, officer of the day, said:— Captain Yohe and gentlemen of the Natiena] Guards of Easton, | am deputed by the Institute to welcome you in its name to this Far Our Institution is estabiished for the enceuragementof agriculture and the arts. Among the specimens of the handiwork of our Meckan cs exhir bited here, you will find objects worthy of your attention as soldiers und citizens. 1 beg you will examine them closely thet when you return home you may be able to couvey to your fellow citizens of Easton, whatever you may find new aud useful Soldiers, it bas been said that “ peace is tne time to prepare for way,” and I congratu: Jeteyouon having sc well obeyed the. rule, Your sor dierly appearance sufficiently vouches for your attention to the drill, and leaves me nothing to recommend. The officers were then inviled into the committee room, the soldiers being dismissed and mixing with the throng. After an hour or two they were again under arms, the band of the North Carolina, polite- ly furnished by Captain Gregory, played ‘* Hail Co- lumbia,” the company presenting arms. A finer or more athletic set of men we have rarely seen, and in this opinion we are supported by several officers of ihe navy and army, who were present on this oc- casion. THE CATTLE SHOW. The exhibition of cattle at Vauxhall Garden was opened yesterday morning. The number of entries was unusually large, and presented a great variety of the various animals reared by the farmer. Of sheep, there were the Southdown, celebrated for their mutton, the Leicester, a well known breed, and the Bakewell, valued tor their wool. Of swine, there was a great variety. Ot poultry, also, Mr. Townsend, of Astoria, has a pair of fine turkeys, Bremen geese and Muscovy ducks, all six months old. One of the turkeys weighs 19 pounds, and the geese 27 pounds a pair. There are likewise a pair of China geese, a pheasant, Poland fowl, and a white hen that lays two eggs a day, Chinese fowls, and a pair of fine capons. The number of horses is nat large. The Canedian Chief, a stout grey stud, attracts much attention. He will walk five miies an hour and trot a mile in three minutes. Raised by Mr. Reines, of Canada. A well known Wall street gentleman exhibits a horee that was raised in 1802, at Horse Neck, Connecticut. It has been in posses- siva of the present owner since 1826, and is now fed at the stabies in Joha street, on the same feed as the other horses. The horse has never been sick, and never had a blanketon. He can go four miles an hour. ‘The horse appearslike a horse of middle age, and is ia good condition. Mr. Fitzhugh has the whole crove ot buffalo, consisting of eleven, which ran at the Hoboken hunt, at the exhibitiou. None were lost, and none injured, at the hunt. Amongst the Cattle, there is a large short horned cow, “Ringlet,” bred by Henry Whitney, Eeq., N Haven, Ct. She weighs seventeen hundred pounds, Strawberry,” a roan colored cow of the same breed, averages twenty-five quarts of milk per day. This breed is celebrated for their milking proper- ties, and their early maturity. Mr. Whitney hasa heiter 2 years old, of great size, and a calf 5 months old, very large. Mr. Whitney, though a very young man, has done much for the agriculture of Connec- tieut. The cattle of Mr. Van Winkle, which took the first premium at the ploughing match, are here too. There is a touch of the sleepy Davy about them. Mr. Van Winkle sayshe walked up Broad- way—keeping up with the omnibusee. Tere is a large number of very fine catile at the exhibition. Murpegous Oureace on our PUBLIC THOROUGH- Fargs.—The daily history of our city would exhibit a record at which the heart would sicken. That history, imperfectly as it is given in the daily press, is sufficiently revolting, but if the scenes of gross brutality which are ot frequent occurrence, and the corruption or imbecility of our courts and public officers were all minutely detailed, the world would discard the record as overcharged. One incident, which occurred on Saturday night, may serve as an illustration. A poor mulatto woman was passing up Broadway on the evening mentioned, when ehe was accosted by some ruffiane, who are of a class which may be frequently met with in our thorough far afew words paased between them, but of their import we are not informed, and one of the ruffians brutally kicked her down the area of Flo ence’s oyster saloon, and we are informed that her neck was dislocated. The body of the murdered woman was, however, picked up, thrust into a cab, and driven rapidly away beyond the interference of the bystanders; and the inhuman brute who com- mitted the murderous act, remained to beard those who witnessed his crime, and to inflict further bru- tality on those who remonstrated with him on the conduct which he had exhibited. When such deeds can be committed so publiely with perfect impunity, proof isaflorded abundanily that some radical change is required, either in the state of our society or in those who are appoinied to protect the good citizen and punish the evil doer. Fire on Boaxp a Steamsoat —The steamer In- dependence, which plies between this city and South Amboy, was discovered to be on fire on Tuesday laet, on one of her trips to this city with a large number of passengers. The fire, however, was extiogui-hed without any material damage to the old crazy machine, which may possibly be doomed to des'ruction by a conflagration at some time or other. It is but two short weeks since a fire was discovered on board her, which for some time threatened her seriously; and, as she is calcula- ted to render but little further service, this may pos- sibly be the best way to procure a newer, more elegant, and better boat. Vatvanie Curiosrry.—At the grand military show at Hartford, Col. R. M. Johnson lost his shee- string; a high functionary presented it to a cele- brated whig lawyer of New York, who in turn pre sented it to a worthy Alderman, one of the commit- tee of reception. The Aldermau, being a whig, becime alarmed, and immediately presented the taliemanic relic to Messrs Braisted & Johnson, of the United States Hotel, who proudly exhibit it un der the care of astrong guard. The wise and the curious can see it by calling. From a most valued correspondent, who hae re- peatedly made us and our readers his debtor hereto- fore, we have received the following interesting communication :— Hh, socn Son Al ‘ An English war steamer, the Cormoran, Commo- dore Gordon, came in a few days ago, ‘having on board a British Ambassador Extraordimary for Peru, Mr. Adams, with suite, &c.

Canapian ParLiament—Tae Seat or Govern- MENT QuestioN.—In the two houses of the Provin- cial Parliament of the Canadian colony, an angry spirit appears to have taken possession of the mem- bers. The Seat of Government question is one great bone of contention, although there are others which will give much future trouble, and already its consequences are seen. We have previously stated that the Executive Council, ef which the Hon. Mr. Sullivan was chairman, had reported in favor of Montreal, but the Legislative Council have defeated him on a question bearing on that subject, leaving the government ina minority offive. The debate consumed two days—the 12ih and 13th inst. —and was warm and frequently personal, and the result was against the government. As one con- sequence of the defeat, the Speaker has tendered his resignation. The resolutions carried against the government were in favor of referring the question to Her Majesty the Queen, that she might exercise her prerogative without the intervention of the Provincial Parliament; but it is intimated that several members were absent, whose presence would have given adifferent resuit. Meetingshave been held in Kingston, of the citizens of that place, and speeches delivered against the removal of the government to Montreal, but we apprehend they will be unavailing Rartroap To Montreat.—It gives us pleasure to state that every prospect exists for the establish- ment of a railroad between this country and Ca- nada. We understand that the Fitchburg Railroad Com- pany have now engineers employed in surveying the route from Fitchburg to Brattleboro’, Vermont, on the Connecticut River, and that they have a bill before the Vermont Legislature for a charter to extend the road through that State to Montreal. It isto be hoped that this bill will pass, and thus give us a steam communication with the Canadas. The road will run from Boston to Brattleboro’ at all events, and, if coatinued into the neighboring pro- vince, will be of incalculable advantage to New England. Over it will be carried the great English mails, the produce of the mills of all the towns through which it rung, and the immense amount of agricultural articles raised in Massachusetts, Ver- mont, &c. every year. Over it will roll wealth in an amount not to be mentioned here. We take no local view when railroads are built to run into neighboring countries. We take a com- prehensive view and note down the advantages that must result from them. They not only give an im- pulse to all kinds of trade, but they fasten the bonds of friendship between the nations of the earth. In this light, what can be compared with the long lines of iron rails laid throughout the world? Arratks In Porto Rico.—We learn from St. Johne, that no change had been made in the admin- istration of the government—the officera appointed by Espartero still retaining their places. Porte Ri- co will, however, like Cuba, be soon furnished with the new adherents. The new crop of sugars on the south side of the island promised well, but on the north gideit will prove considerably short of last year’s. Tur Fire at Ques $500,000.

Miuirary Visit to ‘true Cuatuam.—One of the most gay and gallant military corps of the country —the National Guard of Easton, Pa.—is now on a visit to our city. Captain Yohe, the Commander, has accepted the polite invitation of Mr. Deverna, and in full regimentals, with the band, the troupe visite the Chatham Theatre to-night. The esjecial occa- sion is the anniversary of the surreuder of Lord Cornwallis and his forces at Yorktown, during the revolution. Mr. Burton appears in three of his fun- niest characters, and the rival dancers Mies Rallia and Miss Partington, the juvenile prodigy, with Mr. Williams, all appear in dances; and Mr. Hall in o comic song.

Sepvction anp Murver~— A Precious Vittain.— A most revoltiug case of crime came to our know- ledge some days smce, which we are called upon to record as the facts were stated Some five years since, a man calling himself Patrick D. Cavanaugh, an Irishman by birth, came io our county, and ob- tained a situation in the capacity of teacher in the seighborhood of the Cross Roads, in the western part of Rockville District. He there became ac- quainted with a Mrs Scott. After several ineffec tual attempts to gain the consent of the relatives of he lady for a union in marriage, it was discovered that he had seduced her, and while in a delicate situation, they were united, and lived together ua- «il about six monthg since, when they separated. The cause was soon ascertained ; he haaseduced his step daughter, a girl about fifteen years of age, who lived in the family. She attended a school kept by her father-in-law, as a pupil, until she Coe birth 10a child, on the 84 of October insta.t. The day after this occurrence, she appeared iny the vil- lage of Darnestown where the school was kept, and eroused a suspicion in these who had known her situation. She had been forced from her bed to allay sugpicion. A warrant was ootained on Thure- day last, and Cavaaaugh was arrested at his house, when a esearch was made forthe child. The pri- soner sta‘ed that the child had died, and was buried in the garden near the house. ‘They then proceeded to disinter the body ot the child, when the prisener iaterfered, saying “thatthe body was so mangled ‘hat it could not be recognized as a human being.” The ckull and lower jaw of the infant, upon be- ing examined by Dr Keall aud others, was found broken, and the body otherwise mutilated. The jury upon the case gave a verdict according to the evidence, “ that the child came toits death by vio- ‘ence inflicted by Cavanaugh,” who was fully com- mitted to Montgomery county jail, to await his trial at the November term of the county court for the murder of the child of Margaret A. E. Scott. The prisoner is about thirty-five years of age, of a repulsive appearance, and has been in this country about nine years. He has generally borne a bad character in the neighborhood where he resided, and he was accused with inducing his step daughter to steal $100 trom her grandfather, the money hay- ing beer found upon him.—Rockwifle (Md ) Journal Sales of Stocks at Philadelphia.

The packet ship Shenandoah arrived at Philadelphia from Liverpool with £500, ($2 600) freight. The noble packet lines of New York have for a long time scurcely paid their expenses, including a large number of passen- gers. Without the revenue derived from the latter, seri- ous losses would have been sustained by the owners. The spirit of ‘protection to manufactures” isto destroy commerte. The principle of free trade is to destroy nothiog, but to build up every thing on the broad Lasis of popular freedom of action. The Auditor of Ohio, J. Brough, Eeq., has published a letter in an Ohio paper, in answer to astatement that par had not been obtained for the seven per cent loan accord. ing to the spirit ofthe law authorsing it. Mr. Brough remarks os follow: The law provided that the stock should be sold at par— not par in New Yors—but realizing par for the pay ment of the debts. The bet he only bid that could be bad was par in Obio; and rat than turn away the contrac- tors ond laborers, from this their last hope, the bid was accepted. The takers accepted our drafts upon them— we allowed 14 per cent exchange, and charged, and made the same upon our drafts—so that par in Ohio was rea- lized. ‘The operation is an exceedingly simple one; none vuta fool could misunderstand, none but a knave would misrepresent it. In this he is clearly wrong. The law authorised the loan to be made at not less than par, but he actually dis- posed ofit, it appears, at 984, and made up the differenceby selling exchange. On the same principle he might have sold the stock for fifty per cent, and made up the sum im any other speculation, and then contended that the State, having reeeived par, had ne right to complain. The fect is, however, that the purcharers of the stock paid but 93 per ct instead of par. ‘That is, they get the loan for $22,500 leasthan par. By par the law and the people mean silver dollars, which they promise on the face of their bonds, to pay in the city of New York. Now, if par had actually been received in New York, the State would have made $22,600 by the exchange, and when the amount istote repaid in 1851, she will, iu all probability, have to disburse the same amount fora premium on the funds to transmit to New York. The holders of the bonds will not take the face less the exchange on Ohio. They will went 100,al, though they gave but 93}. This same attempt at juggling about parin New York, and par elsewhere, was made by Col. Gamble, of the Union Bank of Florida, when he negotiated the famous “faith bonds.” He was President of the Union Bank, the bilis of which institution formed the whole circulating medium of Florida. Thvy were irredeemable, and like those ot Alabama, at a discount of 19 percent for specie, and exchange was quoted 11 per cent premium in those bills. Under these circumstan- ces Col. Gamble sold the State bonds at 90 cents on the dollar, and sold the exchange at 11 per cent premium in Union money. Hence he contended that he had realised par in Florida and tulfilled the law. But, unfortunately tor the holders of the bonds, the people of Florida do not thinks. They cannot see why they should be cheated out of 10 percent of specie, because the Union Bank did not pay its debts. Matters of finance are exceedingly simple in themselves. Itis only the mist thrown over it by mountedank tricks of poper mongers, no matter to what political party they belong, which makes it appear mysterious. ‘We copy the following from the report of the Hudson aad Delawere Railroad Co Your Committee feel constrained once more to call your attention to the greec subject of the coal trade, j# the foundation upon which our most san guine hopes and expectations are founded. That inde- ‘atiguble and persevering body of men, the Hudson and Oclaware Canal Company, are now unable to supply the uemand for coal as fast as required. They contemplate, betore the season shall ciose, to deliver at ude water the +normous amount of 240,000 tons, at $3 50 per ton. Their line from Carbondale ix 126 mil with eight stationary engines. The coal costa them, at Hones % id the transportation, by canal, is $105—making the Cost at Rondout $2.25; thus realizing a gross profit of $240,000. And after paying the interest on their two million cupi+ tal, it leaves the handsome income of $120,000 for the curs ¢ what may be ‘done on our proposed maximum load which, on a goed rail, may be within the power ot a good engine of suitable {imensions, would not fall. short of 100 tonsof freight de- scending east. and 25 tons going west. in order t» arrive at the gost of chis performance, we would refer to the trains on the Western railroad from Boston to Albany. The sggregate number of miles travelled over the road tn 1842 was, in round numbers, 397,000, and the expense including every conngency, wear andtear, repairs, Ro. amounted to $266,000, or 67’ cents per mile. 4 therefore, of running '@ train between the coal beds and Newbnrgh, nce of 130 miles, ~yonld be $87 10. which cost at the beds 60 cents per ton, the return train to carry but ay tons of merchandire at $2 per ton, would be $25—{rom which we deduce the following :— RECAPITULATION. t 60c per ton, for 100 Cont at min tons... « $60 00 Transportation to 14 87 10 Same amount for return train, 87 40 9224 20 Equivalent to $2 25 for each ton of coal. The return ‘eight would probably reduce the cost (o $2, per ton for coal delivered at Newburgh. A communication in the Boston Daily Advertiser in relation to what is called the balance of trade, is entirely inerror in its figur It makes a balance of $3,900,000 {a favor of the U. States in its trade with Great Britain and its dependencies for the year 1842. The real balance was with Great Britain $7,000,000, and with the colonies and dependencies $6,500,000, making $13,500,000 in favor of the United States, The errorof the Advertiser arises (rom his taking the imports of Great Britain and the de- pendencies, and the exports of Great Britain only. The state of our trade with Great Britain in 1642 is im- portant, inasmuch as it sustains the fact, thatin a year when our tarift was the lowest, the balance due the States from Great Britain was the highest. This effect was »rought about by the operation of the currency, which in this couutry in 1842, was near its Jowest ebb, and in- fused large imports of specie. This, business, ishowever ‘ar from being #0 profitable as is supposed. When agreat seation of Bank capital is undertaken, and paper credite we pushed toe great extent—specie leaves the country (or the purchaseof goods, Alter this process has gone on for some time, the bubble bursts, and specie is breught back by selling produce at low prices; that is, a great deal + labor is given fora little money. When the money is obtained prices rise, or inother words, money falls in value. It will no longer command s0 much produce or .abor as before, ond & more profitable trade commences
