We have observed, for many months past, the developement of a philosophical sympathy between two distinguished and notorious philosophers and public teachers in this community, which puzzles the mind and provokes great perplexity in the rea- soning power. We allude to the sympathy which has appeared, in various ways, between philosopher Greeley, the head of the Satanic Socialists, and Ned Buntiine, formerly a murderer and seducer, im Narhville, more recently the ring-leader of the Astor Place rioters, now an emigrant at Peniten- tiary on Blackwell's Island. We find the follow- ng in the Satanic and Socialist organ of Monday. “(We utobiographionl sketeh of the life of duds pa f the United States, including his in this eity, with the particularsand names of wd eaterers in his career of eed, il merited by The Tribune rhe, if a in the punae fa with the tm that it was essentially @ forgery, aad ay a gronn frnud—that we bave no more control over. por eonnection with, what is ealled* The Cribune murder, seduction, edultery, brutality, riet, and nearly every other ortme and offence of which de- graced and perverted human nature can be guilty. Here is the hero—the beaw ideal—the exquite specimen, who is the subject of sympathy of our modem eocialists and reformers—those socialist philosophers comprehended under the general term of the Tribune establishment in New York, who rympathise, pity, and take part, as much as poreible, with all knaves, ruffians, and convicts. Need we add another word to this new develope- ment of the sympathy of socialism and the ten- dency of those doctrines advocated by Greeley, | Dana, Brisbane, and their associates in the race of | modern reform? Is this not the real school of Sa- taniem in action, and folly in detail? Who the other associates, caterers, aiders and abettors of Ned Buntline are, we shall inquire. Post Orrick Kerorm —We give Mr. Brady, the new Postmaster, credit for eflecting some reforms in the management of the New York Post Office, particularly in the increased accommodation given to the public; bu: this department is still very far behind the age and similar establishments in other great cities. For instance, instead of only two windows for the delivery of letters—one for each half of the alphabet—there ought to be atleast one window fer each letter of the alphabet, and two for the letter M. If this were done, men, whose ‘ime 18 precious, would not have to wait for an hour before their turn comes to get an answer to their enquiries; nor would they be put to the serous inconvenience, and sometimes loss, of having let- ters of importance denied them, through the inef- ficiency or hurry of the clerke—letters which, ina day or two after, will be found announced as un- called for, in the advertisements in the Herald. Several instances of this kind have come under our own immediate knowledge. Then, look at the kind of complaint made in our paper a day or two since by a correspondent—that hisletters, forsooth, could not be delivered because the clerks were receiving mails for California! Can anything be more outrageous than this? If there are not enough of hands in the office, why not appoint more, insiead of thus trifling with the ime and business of the public? We should like 10 know what they would say, it they were obliged to take letters a quarter of en hour before the des- patch of the mail, as they do in the post offices in England; a convenience of great importance in that country, as merchants and others would gladly pay a dollar, aye, sometimes ten dollars, rather thaa have their letters delayed for another mail. Nor is there any item in the department that pays bet- ter—there being three different charges for late let- ters: for the first quarter of an hour, two eents; for the second quarter, four centa; for the third quar- ter, twelve cents. All this time, be it recollected, letiere are delivered at their proper windows, to all who apply for them, by clerks who have nothing to do with receiving letters. And in our post office department there ought to be the same separation between receiving and delivering. Often twenty or thirty persona are obliged to wait at a delivering window, while a man who has got the first chance of enquiring for his letters, post-pays a score or fifty letters, while the clerk, if he is not an expert arithmetician, goes over the items of the account perhaps three times, then takes some minutes to count the change of, it may be an eagle or half eagle. Thus the time of the public is wasted, and their patience abused. One great cause of the mistakes and bungling, and delays in the Post Office Department, 18 the changing of the clerks with the change of party. When an intelligent man has served three or four years, and has acquired such a knowledge of his business, and so mach expertness in the discharge of his duties, trom constant practice, that he is invaluable to the establishment, a man who differs Job Office,” than The Herald bas Judson may be o greet rascal for aught we know, but we never saw any- Ubing half +0 * obscene’ or ‘shocking’ in his paper, as ‘we bavein The H-raid—nor believe him eapable of & villany #0 nefarious as the above paragraph emo- juries would only do their duty lous pablications— ders, but the great pal would undergo, joree, rovement ’'— New York Tyibuna, If the Socialist coterie profeesed any of the doc- ines of Christianity, we might excuse the want of manners and the violence of the language used im the above paragraph; because even Christians, contending for epoila, will sometimes lose their temper. (Vide the Episcopal Convention.) But philosophers and socialists—the modern Satanic schoo!—that intend to reorganize soeiety and the whole face of the earth, including a recast of the solar system, profess the most perfect impassibility to all sublunary events, and to act on the highest principles of elementary nature and infinite space. We shall give our philosophical cotemporary an opportunity to determine. before a court and jary, whether we have committed “forgery” or not. In the evidence on Judson’s trial, the witnesses testi- fied to the fact, that “Ned Butline’s Own” was printed ip the ” Tribune Job office;” but who are the responsibles among thé inixed coterie of social- iets, infidels and fools in that estabiis.!ment, it in | difficult to determine. Greeley frequently dis- claims the responsibility of various articles in his own columns. Whois responsible for them? We understand that the Tribune establishment, from | top to bottom, hae been recently converted into a socialist phalanx, and that the editors, prntera, publishers, reporters, all the way from the nigger | to the leseer devila, are all interested, more or less, that delectable sheet—a sheet which has pra | duced on public affairs and on the puble mind a more deleterious, anti-Christian, and infidel effect, during the last few years, than all the publicauons that have heretofore appeared, from the time of | Voltaire to the firet iene of the Tribune sheet. But with him in politics is elected President, and fer this important reason he is victimized; but, what in worne, the intereate of the public are eaviifived, too, @ pereon unacquainted with the business being put in his place, as a reward for political services, who hae no natural capacity, or, it he has, knows nothing of the busmess, a thorough aequaintance with which, and despatch in its performance, can only be acquired by long experience. If he should turn out to have ability, and becomes au fait, he ie. sent adrift just when he begins to be really useful It ‘needs no ghost,” therefore, to tell us that this wholesale changing of subordinate officers in the public departments, is highly detrimental to the public interests. It must be 80, and every day’s experience attests the fact. It takes away from the public servant all stimulus to activity and the faith- ful performance of his duty. He calculates he will be retained in office as long as party remains in power, the same influence which obtained his appointment being alwayo ready and potent to pre- vent his dismissal; and, therefore, he is careless, if not aetnally insolent to the people. He knows that no abi no assiduity, will be sufficient tq save him from the decapitating knife, if the reine of government wre transferred to the hands of the rival fection, and he has therefore no spur to exer- on. In England they once pursued pretéy much the same course, but now act very differently. Expé- rience has tanght them, and it ought to teach us. | It is a melancholy fact, which cannot be denied, | that, though in the freedem of our institutions and | Jawa, we leave England and France immeasurably | behind, they are infinitely our superiors in aden nistrative government. The magistrates carry out | the lawe as they exist, the police do their duty ad- mirably, and the post office departinent 19 as | regular as clock-work. Why is this the case? Beecavee, rarely 1@ any man appointed, in the first instance, who has not come fitness for the office— not only thie; for the same phalanx of philosophera, | Fourierites, socialists, and printers of “Ned Bunt- | fne's Own,” and sympathizers with Ned Bantline | himeelf, have employed some of the most rabid ia- | fidels end socialicte ot France and England— | steeped in the reddest of all red republican” jsm—to fulminate and disseminate in this comma ty their atrocious and demoniae doctrines, whieh have nearly ruined, in its first inception and primary movements, the glorious republic of France. ) th If ceoundreliem of the highest degree ever was orgenized for miechy f, it wae that which we have feen recently m action in France, serving as a handle to destroy Christianity and demoeracy, and be un excure for the sabres and cannon of despot- ime, in restoring monarchy and erime. The Tri- bume establiehment— editing, printing, and the job offiee—for no one enn tell their personalties—has been engaged for several years past in a most atrocious, nefarious, villanous dissemination of infidel, social, and horrible principles, that may | yet lead to some disastrous results in this country, if the noble epirit of Christianity, and the sense of wound CI s of all sects, do pot unite to pata stop to im further progress. With eveh a coterie of philosophers, trying to wpeet the principles of Christianity and common sense, the career, and infamy, and morals of euch a men as Ned Buniline, would appear to meet in perfect unison, in certain points in their intelleo- | tual range and moral conduct. In another depart- ment of thie paper we give further proceedings had in coer, disclosing still further the career of the | man with whom Greeley aad the socialista have go deep a sympathy.

Hence, the public are well served, and the people who pay the tax receive value for ir money.

Crescent Cuy, Sept. 2 — Sreamemre Evrerenize in tus Unireo Srare —New Live to Anrwenr.—Our readers will find in another part of \0-day’s Herald, a very curious artiele, which we have extracted from the London Stundurd, on the subject of the progress of steamship building in the United States. The opinions pronounced in this ar- ticle, are of grave importance, and will attract much attention on this side of the Atlantic. The English people are evidently afraid that the United States will outstrip them in this department of industry, and that, before many years, our steam- ships will, in connection with the Cunard line, mo- nopolize the transportation of correspondence, ps- sengers and specie between the two contineats. Thie, we think, 18 not only probable, but almost inevitable. We will, however, goa little farther, and give it as our opinion that American steam: ships will clear the field, and leave nothing but what they may reject, for the steamships of any other country. A few years ago the beautiful appearance of our packet ships, the punetuality of their sail- ing, and the economical manser in whieh they were managed, excited the attention of the British Parliament; and on an investigation before & committee of that body, it was satisfactorily proved that in ship building and in navigating sail- ing craft, the United States were far in advance of England. Now, if we possess the ability to excey England 1m that particular, there certainly 13 reason that we cannot do so in steamships too. We certainly have net had a great deal of experience in that department of industry; but we are pro- gressing very rapidly, and are now, we may safely aseume, on the high raad to success. Under the circumstances which attended our début in steara- ship building and navigation, our first essay was | certainly as good'as could be expected. From tne time when our first steamship was launched uaul the present, we have improved and kept improv- ing; and we think we can safely say, that the last steemships which have been coustracted here will rival, if not excel, in point of speed, safety, and comfort, any afloat—no matter where. The dif_i- culties which invariably attend the commencement of every new enterprise, have beea entirely sur. mounted by that indomitable spirit of perseveranc® and enterprise so characteristic of our people; and the field of competition and rivalry is now fairly open. With the advantages which we possess so fully above all other nations, we think it 13 beyond dispute that we will be second to no couniry in the world in steamships, before many years shall have elapsed. There is good reason, therefore, for the fears entertained and expressed in the arti- cle to which we have referred, and for the Ame- rican people to be gratified at the prorpect before them. In connection with this subject, we may re- mark that a new line of ocean steamships is con- templated between New York and Antwerp. Mr T. B. Claes has been despatched to New York by the Belgian government, as especial agent to coa- fer with the merchants of New York on the subject, and to say that if ap association eould be formed, with a capital of four hundred thousand dollars, one half of the amount would be subscribed in Aatwerp The advantages which the proposed project pre- sents are various. In the first place, there 1s an international treaty between the two countries, which guaranties certain rights of navigation of a very important nature. Secondly, it will promote trade und commerce between the two countries; and thirdly, coal in Antwerp is very low, and can be purchased at as favorable rates, or nearly #0, as in England. In presenting this new steamship project to the apitalists of New York, we have no doubt that the offer of our transatlantic frienda will be accept- ed; and we hope soon to see Antwerp and New York connected by a line of steamships that will vie with any now construeted. ‘Tae Maniuane Bumwsiun comes off weday tor a Legvlature, which is to elelect a United States Senator, and six members of Congress.

The loss of a member by either party will materially affect the division of the House, The whigs will, doubtless, secure the Legisla- ture, or they will be most unaccountably defeated.
