Ulobbie to the Postmaster Generalsinp, meets with a good deal of tavor here. Upon the score of politica, there can be no objection to him, as it is some fifteen orsixteen years since he interfered in po- hives! questions at all; as to his ability, it is un versally conceded that there is not a man in the United States who knows halt as much of the practical detailsof the department. There is no necessity why the Postmaster General should be a Cubinet officer ; indeed, there are many obvi- ous reasons why he should not be. General Tay- Jor, in the appointment of Maj. Hobbie, will have an cpportunity of displaying. unmistakeably, what he means by saying he will conduct the govern- ment the manuer of the earlier Presigents— the most iJustrious of whom stated, that in every ease he endeavored to make fitaess of character his primary object. In this view of the matter, Mar Hobbie’s appointment will be a necessary consequence. There is one grievance which the citizens of ‘Washington have to complain of, and which we beg to call the attention ot Congress to, most re- ,ecttully, viz., the City Post-Office. The present building is entirely unsuited to the purposes for which it is used ; its only reeommendation being its antiquity; for we verily believe itis the oldest building in the metropolis. No person whose mis- fortune it has ever been to wait for the opening ot the mail can forget.the scene. In a small hall, some twelve feet by tour, is congregated the greatest conglomeration of whites, blacks, yel- lows, and browns ever beheld—the proportion of the three latter elasses to the former being as ten to one, The pertume which anses from this motley crowd is intolerable—“ bouquet de asata- tida ” being sweetness itself, compared to 1t. Con- gress alone has power to abate the nuisance. The round upon which the prezent building stands be- longs to government, and an inconsiderable ap- propriation would be sufficient either to put up a vommod)ous fire-proot building at the corner, r to extend the wing of the General Post: office, £0 as to accommodate the City Office also. We trust the matter will receive the sttention of Congress—that 18, if that body consider the security of the mails and the accom- modation of the citizens of any consequence—and we have no reason to believe Bat what both mat- ters sre deemed important. One thing is certain, if the present building does not burn up some fine day—and 1ts inflammablejmaterial renders such an ace'dent highly probable-—it will assuredly tumble down from sheer old age. ‘The weather for two or three days past, has been slightly unpleasant, alternating between snow and tain.

Close of the Year—Macriady’s Furewell— A Doudle Thrust at Forrest--Destructive Fire—Theatrical Changes, §c. This eventful and blustering year, with its wars, pestilence and famine, closes on Sunday; and the new year commences with the first day of anew week, Thus this annual holiday is not last by the combixation of the calendar. From present pros- pects, it will be a lively day mm Baltimore, as the ground is now covered with about five inches ~¢ now. Macready took a farewell benefit last night, at he Holliday Street Theatre. to a large and respect- able audience, and made a farewell speech, which ‘was received with immense enthusiasm, in all parts of the house. He declared that his reason for retiring trom the stage, some years younger then most of his predecessors, was from no con- scious failure of bis physies! powers, but from the tact that in his own country there were so tew establishments in which the immortal writings of Shakepeare could now be presented. Ia reference to his recent difficulty wath Forrest, he said :—— My recent engegement at the Front Street Theatre, ‘wiih the cordial reception there given to me. and the unwistakeable character of the immense audiences mbled. together with the invi! to return to the eity and fill at this houre, where I havi mn re ences distinguished for their respectability and intel- ligence, is a evfMficient reply to the vaunts of my enemies and revilers, who bave undertaken to herald my “lack of pbyrical ability.” and “premature d cline.” There evidences of public estimation hi alto been most cheering to my heart, and | shall carry to the shades of private life « most grateful sense of the honors ro repeatedly and cordially extended to me by the citizens of Baltimore “ Thus, you perceive Mr. Macready continues to held his “pins,” and claims a victory over his athletic and powerful opponent. Robinson’s chair factory on South street, and the rocfe of several warehouses on Commerce sireet, were destroyed by fire at an early hour this morning.

The project of presenting a carriage to General Taylor, it appears is not yet given up, Ihave no doubt the General will accept the carriage; but his 2 | principles will compel him to decline all applica. | tions for office from those who figure in the pre- sentaticn. The old and standard office-seekers of Balti- more are in quite a sandery as to how they shall ayprosch General Taylor with their petitions, though they have never been at a loss before, not even with John Tyler. Most of them have con- cluded to ‘Jay on their oars,” until they see whether Mr. Clav_ returns to the Senate, and en- deavor to get his intercession; but they should re« member that Harry of the West never forgets his friende, or enemies either; and as they all deserted him, in the “ hour ot his tribulation,” he will leave them to steer for themselves. It is a singular fact, that the office-seekers, are cuting frem that portion of the whig party who were tirst to desert t. Cley, and who had received many favors at his hands.

New Railroad Project. I arrived here at two o’clock to-day, amidst a snow storm. After having dinner at the hotel,/T proceeded to the spot where the ‘ People’s Rail- road” meeting was held. It appears, some persons of Oneida, Onondagua, and other adjoining coun- ties, are desirous of obtaining a charter, tobuilda read from the Hudson River to Niagara, and thence to Lake Huron, to be called the People’s Raulroad, to stop at Uitca and other interiediate ylaces, to carry passengers, at one cent per mile, instead of three cents, as now charged by the Albany and Buflalo road ; and, also, for the trans- portation of freight at much less rates than now charged by the latter road. As this meeting is the first efior! which has yet been made, itis quite uncertain whether the project will ever be carried into ¢flect. It has been snowing here very fast allday. The meeting was slimly attended. The following are the proceedings:— At 4o’clock, P. M., there assembled a number of persons from Oneida, Madison, and other coun- ties, at the hotel kept by Mr. John Allen, to take into consideration the propriety and importance ot obtaining a charter to build a railroad from Albany to Syracuse, and thence to Niagara Falls. The meeting was called to order by a Mr. Judson. Having organiz+d, the following gentlemen were chosen as officers of the meeting:—William Caldwell (ot Oneida County), Chairman; Wm. T. Butterfield (do ), Secretary ;—when the following tesohutions were offered and accepted :— Rerolved,Tbat, in the opinion of this meeting, the interest und welfare of the people of the State of New York. and of the eastern and western States and Ter- ritcries, require a good, direct, and permanent doable track rallrced, between the Hudson and Niagara rivers, ssrocn as thought consistent by the people, for the tapi portation of passengers, at one cent per mile, for passage thereon. Resolvd, That winter tranrportation of property, an will as of persone, in well calculated to promote the agricultural interest of the State of New York, and of the eattern ond wertern States and Territories, and that in our cpinion such railroad should be made direct aud permanent, for the safe tranrportation of persons as well as property, at reasonable rates, per tom per mile Rerolved, That we dirapprove of any and all mono- poly im the transportation of persons and property, whetber by sta, canal, or railroads. Resolved, That the proceedings of this meeting be published in the Utica daily Guzette and papers in other adjrinir g ceunties Retolved, That all personsin favor of the above new railroad are requested to attend the next meeting. The meeting then adjourned, to meet again at Durhamville, Oneida Lae on Wednesday, Jan. 16, at the house of Samuel F*. Boyden. The snow 1s yet falling fast, and up to this moment is about I8inches deep. This being on top of the snow which feli within a few days past, it will make such sleihing as ihe western people have not had im some years. Key Wesr. Dec. 22, 1848. Marine Affairs at Kiy West, §e. : The number of wrecks is very much increased in the year just passed, and the amount of property is much larger than in 1847. The amount of salvage decreed is $125,000, expenses $74,140, and the va- Jue of the vessels and cargors $1,252,000. The number of vessels that have struck on the reef, been lost, or brought into this port, 1s 27, and 14 have come in in distress, making a total af 41. Thirteen (13) vessels have been on the reef and got of] without assistance. The number ot wreck- 1 g vesrels 1# now increased to 47 ; their tonnage being about 1200, with nearly 350 men compoeing their crews. The glittering bubble has induce numbers of persone to waste their time by engag- ing in the wrecking business, hoping to become suddenly rich thereby. Filteen suitable vessels, with ten men each, are amply sufficient for ali the wrecking purposes of this coast.

Itwas hkewise proven that in the morning deceased was unable to rise, her head being clotted with blood. The deceased was was severely bruised about the head, and her anpearance, when examined by the Jury, was of the most revolting kind.

Rior av a Funerar.—The Honesdale Democrat gives a long account of a riot at that place, about a week ago. A Protestant young man married a wife whose parents were Catholics. Tne wife dying, lege arose as to whether she should be buried in Protestant or Catholic ground. The hueband insisted that she should be buried where he could rest hy her side at his death. The parents expressed their fixed determination to have her interred in ‘Cathohe ground. Each party sought Jegal advice, which resulted in the decision that the husband had the right to direct where his wife should be buried. Matters were then compromised so that the Catholic service was allowed to be per- tormed over the body at the house, and she was to be buried in Protestant ground. But on the day of the funeral, just as the body was about to be placed in the hearse, the tather came forward and loud]; claimed that the body should go to Catholiegrrdud: Thereupon a fearful riot ensued, in which a large number ef people participated. The Sheriff finally quelled the outbreak, and the interment took place n Protestant ground. Married, On Thurrday. 28th of December. by the Rev.
