the Post Offlee Laws. By referring lligence from Washing- ton, full partic learned of the recent enactment of the Senate, securing a system of cheap postage to this nation, whose benefits will be felt, ia a short time, universally. It can hardly be doubted that, when submitted to the House of Representatives, it will meet with their approba- tion ; for, nothing short of a blind and criminal in- sensibility to the real interests of the country could prompt them to reject it. The principal provisions of this bill may be enumerated as follows :— 1. All single letters, without regard to distance, shall pay the uniform rate of postage of five cents 2 Every letter weighivug not more than half en ounce shail be deemed a single letter, no matter how many ieces it may contain, and if weighing one ounge shall deemed double, and so on. 3 Members of Congress to recei newsp'pers, packages, weight, fcve, during the and after. Tue exc of weighing more than two ounces to be paid out of the con- tingent fund Memers to send letters from themselves free all the year, 4 No one else to frank, except ex-Presidents and their widows. an at le berths packets, &o., which pass free through @ mail, and all Gove t ch the tiene: overnment postage, to be paid for out 6 Newspapers to go outof the mail, without subjecting the senders or carriers to any penal 7 Private posts, for carrying newspapers, to be allowed. 8. All deficiencies between the revenue of the Depa Ment and the expenses, (limited to feur and a half mil- Lons,) to be paid out of the public Treasury. It may be a necessary evil to retain the franking privilege in those few cases in which it is reserved, and so it must be tolerated; but it is satisfaetory In a great degree that the namberless abuses aris- ing out of the extension of this privilege to post- masters and swarms of officia! subs, is effectually put down. For the future, they will have to ac- count to the public for the transmission of lettere; the public, through their officers, accounting to them in return, for whatever moneys they expended on bus'ness, and not on their “ own hook.” Indeed, it may be fairly calculated that a termination bemg thus pat to the frauds of the franking privilege, as practised under the old regime, it will put an im- portant sum into the treasury of the department. Although the vote of thirty-seven to twelve, by which the Bill passed in the Senate, indicates that this branch ot the Legislature are wide awake to the importance of this enactment, and like men of common sense, are sensible of the urgent wants for post office retorm which have too long existed, it is still curious that twelve men could be found in that respectable body so benighted as to cast their votes against one of the most valuable ameliorations which has yet taken place in the affairs of this pro- gressive uauion, and worth all the rest of their le- gislation put together, in the present session. But what completely puzzles one, is the speech of Mr McDoffic, in which he opposes, with the utmost hostility,the whole measure. Some men, it seems, have very little notion of even-handed jus tice—very little capacity to see more than one side of a question. All this is mere ly innoxious silliness in itinerant epouters and stump orators, and pot-house politicians; but it assumes another hue inside the halls of le gislation. The man who goes there for the pur pose of special pleading, and indulging in ex parie tirades, is totally incompetent and unworthy of the station, What, then, shall we say of Mr. MeDuf fie’s war to the Knife against cheap postage? What can we say but that he either cannot or would no see the question in its true light—as a great nation- al one, in which every man, from north to south, from east to west, is alikeconcerned? Very likely Mr. McDuffie was carried away by his ultra Southern predilections, to fire the broad side of his wrath, not against the thing itself, but against the North; which, unhappily for the orator, is in existence to enjoy its share of the benefit. And should it participate even to ® greater extent than the sunny South in this excellent boon, is that a geod reason for Mr. McDuffie’s epleen? Does that take away the sel- fishness of his desire to sit down in acorner, and eat a solitary crust, rather than be seated at a bountiful board with an imaginary rival ? It is not true, although Mr. McDuffie says so, that of ali taxes upon the peeple, that of postage was the least felt. The direct reverse is the fact. It wasa clog in the wheels of business. It w: a special visitation upon the industry, activity, and intelligence of this great country. It was an em- bargo upon information, and that, like the air we breathe, is tranefused for the use of all—not mono- polized by those who took the trouble to procure it As to his cry out on account of the assumed de ficit in the revenue, by the.operation of the new law, it is deserving of little regard. The same was urged when Rowland Hill first agitated the fame question in England, but experience as shown it was totally unfounded; for such an enormousincrease in the number of letters ensued, that in a short time after the introduc tion of the penny postage law, there was a consi derable surplus revenue, after paying all the charges of the department—just as will be the case here in a short period, or all experience is at fault. As to the other sad consequences, which, accord- ing to Mr. McDuffie, are to follow this measure,they will be found to exist only in his own imagination —with one exception—and that is the revolution that will follow, as he says, in the department. In this we entirely coincide with him; fora revolu- tion, indeed, will be the result, which, instead of deploring, as he doer, we regard as most auspi cious event ; it, will be one of those rare, peaceful, revolutions in which the good is certain, and the evil problematical, and of which every individual will in common participate. Reform jing two ounces in ion, and for thirty days before ge on packages, kc, New Yorx Pitot Law—War on tax Naw Yorx Piors.—We have been very much astonish ed in observing the virulence and perseverance with which the Wall street journals are following up the attack first made in an Albany paper on the New York Pilots. These attacks upon these hard- working, meritorious and valuable class of men, are malignant ia the extreme. The Pilots of New York only want to be placed in the same position that other pilots on the coast are under the laws of Congress. The alteration in the law suggested under the sanction of Governor Wright is no more than what they have a right to expect from an honorable and intelligent legislature. But how Singular i is to gee the journals which effect to re- present those interests who are under incalculable obligations to this noble class of men thus assailing them and attempting to run them down for mere political reasons, and the gratification ef the malig- nant passions of a miserable clique! We shall fol low up ths subject in a day or two, and expose it to the exeeration of all honorable men. Packet Snips ror Evrors.—The Paul Jones, Captain Watson, is to take the place of the United States, and the Oxford, Captain Rathbone, that of the England—the U. S. and E. still remaining un- heard from. Tne Paul Jones, is a very fine and fast ship, but makes the trip to Liverpool only; thence she pro- ceeds to Canton—that being Captain Watson’s eourse. The Oxford and her commander are favorites with the ocean travellers. She will sailnext Mon- day, and take out the passengers upto that day. The O. is one of the best winter packets in the service. She is not only beautiful but powerful in strength, and Captain Rathbone has been a com- mander for upwards of a quarter of a century. The United States and England will take thei, places in their respective lines in a week or two after their arrival. New York Lrerstatore.—The proceedings in our legislature are barren of interest.

Mr. Ryder’s defence of the Catholic dogma of praying ‘o the “Virgin” and the “Saints.” It 1s a tolera- bly able and satisfactory exposition of the Protest- ant views on this interesting topic of religious dis- cussion. We admire particularly the calm and temperate spirit which characterizes it. It 18 dis- tinguished by a tone altogether different from that which marked the violent and unchristian ha- rangues of Dr. Brownlee and Mr. Cheever on the same side, and furnishes, we would fain believe, evidence of the fresh infusion of a spirit of libe- rality and charity into theological controversy. This is but the commencement of a new era in polemical discussions in this country. Hitherto the tival sects have only railed against each other, ap- pealing to prejudices and passion, instead of to rea son and scripture. A better spirit is now mani- fested. Dr. Pise has the credit of being amongst the first to conduct religious controversy in this en- lightened and rational mode, and it is indeed very Bratifying to find that he is met inthe same man- ner. Itis interesting, however, to observe the very Opposite line of argument pursued by the Catholic and Protestant divines, whose lectures we have given. The former appeal to the fathers and the church, the latter to the scripture itself, discarding the mere human authorities. Dr. Pise is, however, quite right in his assertions respecting the doctrines held by the followers of Christ in the early centu ties. The dogmas for which he contends were certainly held by the church during these pri- mitive periods of Christianity, and do not ap- pear to have been disputed until long after- wards. The great subject of controversy now comes to be, were these dogmas received from the Apostles, or were they errors, which gra- dually crept into the teachings of their successors ? Mr. Stilwell proposes in this lecture to go back to the original and anthenticated writings of the Apostles, for the purpose of solving this important inquiry, and with what effect, the candid and im- partial reader will judge. He appears, indeed, to reply to Dr. Pise on the principle of the witty con- troversalist, who answered the question of his Ca- tholic opponent, “* Where was your church before the Reformation ?” by asking another, ‘ Where was your face before it was washed ?” This, how- ever, appears to be a very fair way of settling the points in dispute; and it is worthy of notice, thst amongst Catholics themselves, there is evidently, of late, a willingness to go to the Scriptures them- selves for the evidences of their peculiar tenets; thus rejecting the false aesertion that to the mem- bers of that sect the Bible isa sealed Book. It is not so, Altogether the aspect of the religious world is at present encouraging. There are symptoms of & return to ancient Christianity. Bigotry and preju- dice are giving way in many qnarters. Amongst the Baptists and Independents, the most numerour sect in this country, there is a great deal of peace and quiet. The Methodists have lately had a lit tle disturbance in consequence of the controversy about the slave question. The Presbyterians ap- pear to be becoming somgewhat more liberal; ana he only sect in serious trouble seems to be the Epis copal church, which has been shaken a good deal by the recent developments with regard to some of their Bishops. The Catholic Church, which had been rapidly, though quietly increasing and spreading itself, suffered something of a blow by Bishop Hughes’ injudicious conduct in Carrol) Hall. But even that prelate is now making some attonemeat for his misguided zeal in that melan- choly business,by betaking himeelf to a vindication of the doctrines of his Church. On the whole, the appearances in the churches are, as we have said, favorable. Controversy, conducted in a better spirit than formerly, will lead to good resulis. People will be led to investigate the grounds of difference between the sects. They will find that, after all, the churches are not so widely separated in matters of belief; and the truth, aided by an independent prees, will ultimately extend its tri- umphs more widely than ever, and charity will fol- low it, removing sectarian animosities and parti- zan bigotries, which have their origin in ignorance and misrepresentations. N. P. Wituis’ Rep.y To THE ASSAULT oF Ong or THE “ Courier’ Rerorters.—Mr. Willis came out with a long article, last evening, in which he repels the assault made upon his oral character a tew days since in the columns of the Courier and Enquirer, by one of the attachés of that journal. This defence is rather amusing. It does not consist of certificates from tailors, bootmakers and wa: erwomen, as his former defence did, and Mr. Wil- lis gives a satisfactory reason for this—the former attack being made against his common honesty, required the certificates of common people ; but the present assault being directed against him as a literateur, a man of honor and morality, and a gen- tleman, requires the certificates of people of a dif- ferent class. Accordingly, we have a considerable number of extracts from letters, and invitations, and notes, written by lords, and dukes, and mar- quises, and barons, and knights, and governore- general, and viceroys, and others of high degree, with their names struck out and dashes inserted. The whole evidence furnished appears to be quite conclusive in establishing the fact, that both in Europe and in this country, Mr. Willis occupies a perfectly unexceptionable position us a man and a gentleman. The only drawback, that we can per- ceive, is a little innocent vanity and foppishness in the presentation of the evidence, but which are,per- haps, quite pardonable under all the circumstances. We have now no hesitation in declaring that the gross, violent, and apparently vindictive charges preferred against Mr. Willis in the Cou- rv, under the authority of ‘Colonel Webb of the regular army” and his assistants, all fall to the ground, and Willis rises a much better and stron- ger man than we really su»,osed him to be. There can be no doubt that he has the best of the controversy, and that the position of his antagonist is any thing but enviable. U jess Colonel Webb and his assistants, through the Courier, can estab lish the charges made against Mr. Willis with something better than mere assertion, they must stand before the world as base and malignant ca lumniators. Now we know Colonel Webb very well, and all his personal characteristics, and we are perfectly isfied that he will do no injustice to Mr. Willa, but that as soon as it is manifest that he has been made use of to assail that gentle- man, he will repair the injury thus inflicted, as he has just done in the case of the Barings of Londen, whom he slandered, as he himself confesses at the instigation of some koavish speculator, and to whom he has made the amende honorable. Mr. Willis has, indeed, his weak points. He has discovered great vanity and foppishness in a variety of instances, but all these foibles are venial when compared with the gross and atrocious charges alleged against him, as is now seen, with- out foundation. Willis has, therefore, defended himeelf triumphantly, and unless Raymond justify his conduct in some way or other, he must be driven from society as a malignant and contempti- ble slanderer—utterly unworthy of the companion- ship of men. New Yorx Historicat Society.—The stated meeting of this body having been prevented last week by the snow storm, will be held this evening. A memoir is expected to be read by the President upon The Language of Mexico, and an eesay by the late Col. Stone, giving biographical sketches of the writers upon New York Tue Morner oF THE Gra cn! —Old Virginia is generally called by the patriots in their frolies, the ** mother of Gracchi.” We rather think she is also, by a second marriage, the ‘* mother of the office beggars.” According to recent data, more than one haif of the office holders at Washington | are Virginians, Tus “Musica IN Yorx.—A num- ber of gentlemen holding conspicuous positions in what is modestly termed by its members the ton of New York society, have held a long-talked-of meeting at the New York Hotel, and passed reao- lutions that a new Opera House shall be built, on a large and magnificent scale, on the corner of Broadway and Second street. The shares are set at $500 each, and the subscription has been opened with something of a flourish. There is no likelihood, however, that the house will be built, unless the committee who have taken it in hand can engage the services of Aladdin, with his won- derful lamp, as the architect of the contemplated structure. Even were it to be erected, the site chosen is too far up town. A faubourg, however, “exclusively” inhabited, is not the propor locstion for an Opera House—whizh, like all other theatri- cal establishments, must depend upon the general patronage of the people for its success. A clique, whatever may be its pretensions, can never sustain the Italian Opera ina this city, any more than it can manage and direct political affairs. It is the gene- ral sentiment of the public alone, whose voice is potential in all matters of this kind. But these gentlemen have gone entirely the wrong way to work to get up the Opera here. It is not more Opera houses that we want,but more har- mony and ¢fficiency among the artists. With al) the feeling that has been manifested in favor of the Opera, we have never been able to get a company together who would go on without quarrelling and tighting amongst themselves, and exploding at the -nd ef a few weeks—just as people began to go to hear them sing; and as long as this continues, we aeed have no hopes of seeing the Opera permanent- ly established. The neat and central Opera-house in Chambers street is sufficient for all present pur- poses; and if the moneyed committee who have undertaken to build a new house will follow the olan we will lay down, they may expect that their labor and money will be productive of some good. Let a fund be raised by subecription, and a proper oerson in Italy employed to select a good company und engage them on the following terms: The members all binding themselves to remain together tor three years, and to receive, from their salaries, a weekly sum aufficient for their necessary expen- ditures—the remainder to be deposited in to their credit, upon condition that it cannot be drawn out until the expiration of the three years. Any member leaving the company, meanwhile, or re- tusing to fulfil his contract, will lose all interest in his reserved fund, his portion of which being dis- tributed. among the remaining members. Then jet a series of the beat operas be produced, under a oroper and able manager, and in the most effective manner, at Palmo’s. If this were to be done, we 1ave scarcely a doubt that, at the end of the three years, we might congratulate ourselves en having firmly planted the Italian Opera in the great metro- polis of the United States. f But, in the mean time, to what a sad and dis couraging level has sunk the musical drama! At the Bowery, which once resounded with the voice of Malibran, a screaming, fighting, shirt-sleeved, roaring, tobacco-chewing, peanut-eating, crowd, gather in pit, boxes and Gallery, to witness au equally ecreaming, Sighting and roaring melo-dra- ima, called ‘the operatic drama of the Bohemian Girl”—while at tne Opera House, instead of the sweet voices of Pico aud Borghese, revelling inthe gloriousriches of the Semiramide and the Lucrezia, we have—a nigger burlesque! What a falling off is here! What an humiliating commentary on the state of the musical drama in New York! What a living satire on the public taste of our people. _We looked 1n at both these performances last aight, and we profess that it was extremely difli- cult to decide which was the greater burlesque. If either was more respectable than the other, the preference must certainly be given to the niggers. They pretended nothing but fun and ridicule ; while the bellowing, the screeching, the ranting. the wagging of jointless eee ct and the general towt ensemble in the Bowery Bohemian Girl, were several degrees below the lowest species ot bur- leeque. So goes the Opera in New York. News From Evrorg.—lIt is very probable that the following packets will bring the next news from Europe.

Ygstempay.—The snow, copious and closely packed as it is, begins to show unmistakeable symptoms of exhaustion, and the real ‘‘ native” mud which covers the pavements was very per ceptible yesterday in Broadway. The travel, how- ever, has rather increased than slacked. It 1+ really wonderful where such incredible crowds ot men and women, as are heaped upen every omni bus, and stowed away ip all sorts of vehicles on runners, can come from. The ‘ Napoleon stage” was out yesterday in full feather, and “ Albany Bill” handled the reins of his twelve horses with o~ much ease and grace as a genaine Waterford whip would ‘ put through” a tandem. It is alto- gether a slap-up affair, and attracted a great deal of notice. To-day ‘‘ Albany Bill” takes the field with fourteen horses. If the weather continues to moderate, however, his rein will be short. Sure Bur.vine on THE Onto.—A barque, a single- decker of 250 tons, called the Muskingum, hes been launched at Marietta, onthe Ohio.

This 1s decidedly a new movement in ship building. Tue Arran or M. Grousset anv M. Emeric. —The following card in reply to M.

There was a large and spirited meeting of this association—the fourth that has been held since its formation for the despatch of business—last night, in the Library of the Historical Society. Seven o’clock was the hour named for commencing the proceedings; but asat that hour the greater number of those who attended had not arrived, a delay of more than half an hour took place. At length, The Hon. Lurner Brapisu called the meeting to order, and, after inviting all those gentlemen who had accepted their nomination to offices to be seated at the table, said:— Gentlemen : On entering upon the discharge of the du ties you have been to assign me, I caunot refrain from offering ‘ou, and the friends of agriculture general ly, my cordial congratulations, as well upon the numbers, asthe character of those who compose this meeting. This indicates a concern of the right kind which extts for the great interest of our country—that of agriculture As the cultivation of the earth was the original, so it was, and is still, the most | erie the most important, and the noblest occupationof man. To improve this great interest —to introduce into its tical operation all the discove- ries and improvements in science—thereby improving and bean fying earth of ours, and increasing ell the ne cessaries, the comferts, the embellishments of life ; these are objects worthy of the attention and efforts of every friend of his country ond his kind ; these are the chips ef the American Agricultural Associstion ; these al jects this society propose to pursue, with reference to the present state ef scientific knowledge and actua! condition of the world. Among the remarkable charac: teristics of the age in which we live, there are two prom - nent ones; first, the great developmen's in naturel sc: ence—and, secondly, the application of these new 4: coveries to the practical business of life, and the great in. terests of society. Scientific knowledge is not now whit itonce was. Itis no longer confined within the magic and mystic circle within which it was deemed forbidden for all but the initiated tu enter. It no longer dwel's withia the colleges or the schools, but it has come forth among the people, mingles in the affairs of world, aad directs its practical operations. Principle: are no longer valued merely beca' are ingeniou- depted to lend brilliancy to some theory, but they are 3 of practical utility, great interests of mankind. Ours is eminently a utilitar:- an age. Now, what the American Agricultural Society roposes, is, to follow this manifest spirit of the a, nd troduce into agriculture, as far as is practici may be useful, the Jiscove provements o! modern science. Indeed, we hold the opinion that no system of sgriculture can be considered as enlightened but ia proportion as it may prove useful. What, for ex- ample, wonld you think of a physician—I do not now speak of those geniuses who accomplish wonders by the force of instinct, who are not only equal with, but in ad- vance of science—but I speak of those learned gentlemen who really cure disease. What would you think of that learned doctor who would prescribe for a disease with- eut any knowledge of its character, its sypptoms—or, without any acquaintance with the materia medica, from which he professes toderive his remedy? So it is'with agriculture; without a knowledge of the elements or active agents in production—the qualities of the soil—and whether that soil contained all the properties necessary for that production ; if not, what manures and composts are suitable for invigorating it, or restoring the different agents—without this knowledge no system of agricu'- ture can be enlightened or perfectly successful 1» illustration, let me suppose a case:—A practical far. mer wishes to produce certain crop from a par- ticular field under cultivation. Now, if he knows what agents are necessary for the ptoduction of such a crop, and also that his field is deficient in any of those agents, he ought to supply them and thus the power of his soil complete. But without this knowleds the usual error is to manure generally, by which, if the the farmer has supplied the deficient agency he miy have added others in which the soil abounded. In this case he will obtain his crop, but it generally baa ey $ that those eseeracy agents are not supplied—in whic!) case, he will not o1 ne have failed in his crop but besuh- to additional expense. Now the great object oi proved system of agriculture, is not merely to enable the farmer to produce more, for thet he may learn from the fancy cultivator, with his expenses, appliances and carelessness of economy—but to ent him to produce, and by that production to meney That system of agriculture, therefore. is best which enables the farmer, on @ given amount of capital, to pro. duce the greatest amount of profit. Profit, then, in agri- culture, is the grand test of perfection ; and these objec: the American Agricultural Society propose, not onl; most fally, but far to obtain by the union of scien- tific knowledge witl id productive husbandry. To ensure this w , and its legitimate results, is the gre:t object of this association. But J may here be asked, per. haps, where is the necessity of a new altars) Association? Have we not already sufficient nun- ber of institutions for the promotion of this object? Have we not, even our midst, the American Institute with its agricultural tment? In answer to this I would remark here, in the first place that, as regards the American Institute, I never can, here or elsewhere, [romps of that noble and patriotic institu’ but in terms of the warmest respect and regard ; and as » citizen of the United States, I am happy to avail mys! of this occasion to express my acknowledgments for tl: great good they have already accomplished, and, I tru:', © greater goo they are yet destined to achieve.

He thought that the exhibition of fine paintings would exercise a salutary and nenlps influence upon the youths of the present and if but a few were saved, he thought that those gentlemen who had remonstrated against the resolution would yet be sorry for it.

The police office inthe Bowery City Intelligence, Feb. 10—Murper ar Pexxsxiti.— On Saturday last, in the afternoon, a man named Crendall, who resides at Peekskill, was murdered, about half a mile this side of Peekskill, by aman named Hugh Lynch. Crendall was crossing the bridge, when Lynch was seen to join him, and ina few seconds strike him over the head with on axe, knocking him upon the ice below. He immediately ufter walked off. The valiant inhabitants of that regien who witnessed the assault, were afraid to arrest the m: themselves, but flew to Mr. Crandall, and found him sensible, with his brains knocked out. They then rus to the Sheriff of the county, who set out in pureuit of Lynch, whom he heard of from time te time on the road to Sing Sing. When he reached Sing Sing, be learned that a man, answering to the description ot Lynch, had passed through the town some hours before. The Sheriff, not caring to come to New York, directed two of the Sin, og officers to start after him. They immediately chart- ered a sleigh and started for the city. They arrived at Manhattanville on Sunday night, about nine o’cloc! learned that Lyneh hed passed through on foot helfan hour before their arrival. The officers desired to push on ofter him, but the boy who wos driving the sleigh refused to drive any further that night—so the offi- cers, inatead of compelling him to do so or charterip, another vehicle, staid all night at Manhattanville an came to the city yester¢ay morning: It is useless to add that they did not find Lynch waiting for them. ‘The re- porter was given the above account by a person whose statements are invariably correct. If they are so in this instance, the conduct of the two officers is reprehensible in the highest degree, as perhaps through their dillatori- ness the criminal has escaped justice.
