City Postal Reforms—What We Need in New Work. TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. As the present session of Congress will be requested to decide upon the subject Of better Post Office facilities in this city, “we feel called upon to contribute our share of ‘intelligence to the enlightenment of the ques- ‘tion, and to induce a state of things in harmony ‘with the progress which has beeu mde in other | great cities in regard to this important branch of administration. The city of New York extends from the Battery to King’s Bridge—a distance of more 4 fifteen miles. At present, we have but i ‘one Post (Office for the accommodation | ‘of the inhabitants spread over the en- | tire surface of this large extent of terri- tory, and that is situated at one extremity of | the island. We will proceed to indicate the reveral points where post offices should be esta- , in order to affurd reasonable, and as marly as possible, equal accommodations to the inhabitants of all parts of the island. First.—There should be a post office near the | .junction of Wall street and Broadway. Secend.—A post office near the corner of | ‘Chambers street and Broadway. Third.—A post ollice near the junction of the Bowery and Division street. Fourth.—A post office at the junction of Greenwich and Eighth avenues. Fifth —A post office between Broome and Ca- wal streets on Broadway. Sixth— A post office at the junction of Broad- sway and Sixth avenue. Highth — A post office at Yorkville. Nioth.— A post office at Manhattanville. Teoth.—A post office at Carmansviile. Eavh of these points is the centre of a very Jarge and active population. The least popn Jous of them all are Carmansville and Yorke ville, and these have more than three thousand inhabitants each. Letterscoming from abroad, or remote parts of the country, addressed to the inhabitants of each of these sections, should be distributed ‘rom the great receiving Post ‘Office within the earliest possible time after the arrival of every mail, and from thence be carried some four or five times @ day to the places of business or the residen- ces of the persons whose names they bear, by «carriers attached to each of these local post of- fices. Returning—carriers should collect let- ters deposited in boxes left at every convenient point. This should be done an equal number of times every day. The last collections of letters from these boxes should be made at stated times, at the latest possible moment be- fore the departure of the various daily mails from the city. Letters collected in this way should be assorted in the several local post of- fices mentioned, so that the place of each parcel should be clearly seen on its ar- rival at the great central post office. In that way not an unnecessary moment of time would be lost between the last mo- ment at which letters reach the several local post offices, and their being sent off to the cen- tral office. By this method every portion of our vast city would enjoy the benefits of a post office, and its inhabitants be enabled to trans- act business by letter with the inhabitants of every other division of the city, by an inter- change of letters twice, if not three times, every day. The great central, receiving and expe- ditionary post office should be located at some point in the city convenient for the numerous class of floating inhabitants who have no known address, and who are consequently obliged to resort to the central office to inquire for their letters. The entire system of tox delivery should be done away with. Every letter should be carried to its ad- dress immediately atter the arrival. of the mails, or three or more times each day. Mer chants’ letters snd others should be taken from ech local post office, to be sent to the central office at the very latest moment and with the most relisble certainty. Besides, letter bags might be hang up fd = ae sae Viole depots, to receive ta: letters up e very ‘Tuoment of the d of each mail traia. ‘The main functions of the central office should be to receive and expedite mail matters to the several local offices. There should be, how- ever, a bareau where letters without addresses, or whose addresses cannot be found by the catriers, can be deposited and kept till called for, after or before advertisement. The num- ber of eet tay cease must pits ana ed bes ‘vel constantly increasing in a great coma relat metropolis like this, and the inter- ests of the parties to whom they are addressed should not be overlooked in the selection of the site for the central post office, any more than the facility for receiving and ceapesctin various mails which age to brou; PeAbout one-third the mail matter reaching the city from the interior of the republic, and foreign countries, is bronght by railroad to ‘Thirty-first street. The other two-thirds is brought to the city by Canal street and various other points along the North river. Few #teamboats at present land their mails from the East river. Postage on ull city letters should be prepaid, 80 as to prevent the loss of time in their de- Nivery, and no extra demand should be made by the carriers over and above the uniform government charge of three cents for each ingle letter. These local carriers should, as hus been often suggested, have all the legal proteotion afforded to the United States mail, All letters should be carried in covered boxes, well adjusted to the body, and suspended from the shoulder, with a cover open- ing outwards, and be provided with pen and ink to mark changes of address, The system of letter distribution sketched above has been in most successful operation in Lon- -don and Paris for many years, and is found to be not only of infinite convenience to every g Post offices we would, besides paying i ‘own expensee, add a -considerable eum to the revenues of the general Post Office. There is no town in the country of three thousand inhabitants whose post office does not pay ite cy Mata % Without a doubt the ber of letters put in circulation within the «city by the adoption of this plan would yield a large surplus revenue to the government. Hundreds of thousands of letters of invitation, -beuk and insurance notices, as well as letters -on all the subjects of family and business life, would be transmitted through the post office that are now conveyed by their writers person- ally or by their servants e: ly employed ‘for the purp:se, or left to the irresponsible, un- sefe, partial and tardy delivery of private Bah he 6 at present’ conducted the Post Office in this city is partial and restricted in its accommodation. It would seem as if it were ad- ministered for the exclusive benefit of those who reoeive salaries for carrying it on, and the limited number of inhabitants and basiness 4 men of the lower wards of the city. An in- habitant in the upper Pose of the island derives no more facilities of communicating with his fellow citizens by letter, or with foreign cor- tespondenta, by the present Post Office, than if it were situated in New Jersey or bho: fn A letter written in any one part of the city cepnot reach its address ia any other of the city much within forty-eight hours, and not even then witt'the least certainty. Whenever it le important that letters should leave the ity atany time, it is abeolutely necessary it is at one end ofan islaud fifeen miles long. So of all that class of citizens whose addresses are Dot known. They too are obliged to go a distance sometimes of fifteen miles to inquire for an anticipated letter. This is clearly a state of things which cannot be tolerated. Local ofices we musthave. Regular and frequent distribution of letters we must have. A great central post office, adapted to the equal wants of all, we must have. We do not attach the blame of the defects of our postal rystem particularly to this or any preceding administration, but we do say that the present Post Office arrangements of this city are wholly unworthy of any civil- ized country, sw ing in abuses and neglect of the general popular interest any thing to be found elsewhere tbronghont the length and | breadth of our republic. We call upon the in- | bybitants of the various sections of the city | whose natural centres we have indicated abqve a: proper places for the establishment of Jooal post offices, to arouse themselves to a sense of their rights and the obligations of our rulers, to whom they are to look for a remedy of the manifert evils we have pointed out. Had not our fellow-citizens been the most stolid and abject subjects of bad administration in this cular, and totally indifferent alike to their wterests and their rights, they would long sno have forced the Post Office Department to estal lish local offices at every one of the places we resentations be sent forward to the Postmas- ter-Geveral and to Congress, from every one of the localities mentioned, and the justice we have so clear a right to cl: in the common interest of every portion of the city, and in pinto the Treasury itself, will not long be de- byed. Supreme Court—General Term, By Hon. Judge Roosevelt. Le Roy vs, Lowber.The following opinion was dc livered by cules Re elt at the last term of this court :—The leading object of this suit is to correct an ulleged_ mistake in a certain agreement between Lowber and Le Roy, set forth in the complaint. Lowber, it seems, before the new code, sued Le Roy for an allezed breach of the agreement in the Superior Court, and the latter sought in that court, and under the old system of practice, to reform the agreement by way of defence, which, as the law then stood, not. being allowed, he now files an affirmative bRI in equity for the ame purpose, praying also for a temporary, to be followed in the end by a perpetual, injunction to stay all further proceed ings at law in the action in the Superior Court. The controversy arises out of the dissolution of a part ship ; Lowber claiming that Le Roy, by the agreem@e” was to have paid certain debts; that he left them unpaid; and that he (Lowber) wax made to pay them. and ix entitled as a consequence to be reimbursed. Whereas Le Roy insists that the property which went to make the payment, although Lowber’s by tho original letter of Le Roy's) by the justice of the care, and by the true ultimate understanding of the par- ties. The articles of diasolution are in the form of letter one from Lowber, containing his proposition to Le Roy: and the other from Le Roy, containing his answers to Lowber—and both dated 4th of April, (Saturday.) 1846. Without reciting all the terms of settlement, it is anf. ficient to say that under any interpretation they were rosaly unjust to Le Roy, and, himself being the judge, exceedingly liberalto Lowber. Le Roy, who had put in most and takenout nothing, was in ral to assume the debts, taking the assets, except such as appertained to the machinery; while Lowber, who had put in least, (and that in sundries instead of cash,) and already drawn nearly as much as he had advanced, was not only to be discharged from general liability, but to keep the machinery and its appurtenances for ‘himself. “This arrangement (u: the language of Lowber’s letter) to take effect on Monday, the 6th inst., when all books and asseta will be given into your (Le Roy’s) hands.” Le Roy, it should be remembered, was not a general part- ner, but had put in the specific «um of $25,000. ‘The concern bad been in operation about nine months, and Lowber, as he said, ‘‘deeply, moxt deeply regretted that they should have made such lossca in #o early a stage of the partnership.”” He nevertheless, from motives ich he, of course, is estopped from saying were not bona fide, on the same day and to the «ame letter which contained his proposal, appended a postscript, apprising le Roy that “the ‘arrangement was upon the express condition that all amounts over and above twenty thon- sand dollars, which might be realized ont of the assets, Kc., were to be paid tohim, Lowber.’” ‘This certainly was a pretty strong intimation, and coming from s general to a special pertert, almost a guaranteed adsurance, that while he, Lowber, wes to lose nothing, the loss of his associate, under the proposed arrangement, would and should be limited to five thousund dollars.’ Even upder this Assumption it waea hard bargain, and one which Lowber had no right to impese upon’ his goodnatured friend. Indeed, he appears to have soon become seni- le of this lifmselt, for on the very day he writes another letter to Te Roy, in which he marks out for himseif, in the future, a course of labor and self-denial, “until I have made up. (as he says) my share of the losses of Lowber & Le Roy, 80 na to make good the twenty-Ave thousand dollars invested by yourself.” The ar rangement thus explained “by Lowber, altho gh instituted, as we may express it, on Saturday, the 4th. was rot to “take effect,’ it will be recollected, until Monday, the 6th. It was inchoate, and so expressly agreed to be, during the interval of the Sabbath. That interval, it appears, the conscience of some of the par- ties mot being perfectly at ease, was devoted, and in this view very properly devoted, to self-examination; which Tes in the discovery that # great mistake, and per- haps a great wrong, had been committed, and in a de- claration by Lowber that before the arrangement. took eftect, it should be rectified aud redressed. ‘The mistake was one of fact. The assets, instead of being, ashe, Lowba:, had given Le Roy to understand, ‘over and above twenty thousand dellars,”’ without the machinery, were found, after exhausting a large portion of the Sabbath in their detailed investigation, at their highest valua- tion, to be under and below fiftcen thousand, with the machinery. Here, then, while the matter was still in Jfieri, before its consummation, was a discovered undis- puted error of over $10,000. ' To rectify it, required, if not a reformation of the party, at least a reform of the agreement. The machinery, it was obvious, consistent- ly with any decent regard to fairness or even honesty, could not, under these circumstancos, be taken by Low- ber; and the stipulation io that effect must be stricken out or abandoned. Accordingly, on the following day, the Monday en which the assets were ‘to be given into Le Roy's bands,” a schedule was furnished oa behalf of Lowber, consisting of twelve separate items of property on baad: and among them the ‘machinery (anill and engine,) $5,200." Le Roy, it seems, was the owner of the premises. The delivery, therefore, of some of the articles, xccompsnied by the delivery of the schedule was a delivery of the whole; and. in my judgment, it was | clearly, at the time, intended 0 to be, as well by ow ber as Le Roy, The opposite ground assumed by hiv « year afterwards, was merely an afterthought 1- though it may serve to cancel, on his part, ail claims to credit for an honest xmendment, it cannot, with- out the grossest injustice, ceprive Le Rog of the small modicum which Lowber's previous repentance (afterwards repented of,) bad actually conceded. ‘The agreement, it seems to me, was actually reformed by the parties themselves, in its execution. It ‘took ef- feet,”” not as originally written, but aa reformed. It was either a new agreement, superseding and incor- porating in part only the letters of the previous day, made wholly on the day of the consuinmation and deli ¥ it was the correction of a mistake of fact in ious agreement, and related back to the day of ion. Ass new substituted agreement, it wae admissible, although partly in parol, and was a perfect defence at law to the action in the Superior Court. That Court, however, viewed it in» different light, and ex- cluded the evidence as an attempt to vary the legal im- rt of a written instrument by parol proof, or to re- form a contract on the ground of mistake—which, as the practice then stood, could only be done by a direct bill in equity. The decision, therefore, placed in effect, as it, was, on the ground’ of a want of jurisdiction adapted to the relief sought, cannot now be invoked as an exicppel without manifest injustice. And on the whole merits of the case, developed as they have been in the present suii, the Judge at special term was hi self of the opicion, in which we fully concur, thai - ber, after the discovery and acknowledgment of his mis- take, had no just claim to the machinery; that he had indubitably and properly relinquished it "to le Roy, and that in doing #0, instead of making a gift, he had only done what a court of equity would then have compelled him to do, and what, having done it voluntarily, a court of equity will now compel him to ratify, and not permit him to recall. Instend, therefore, o€ dismissing the laintif’'s complaint, a decree should be entered, dectar- fog that the provision containedin the agreement of dis- solution; that Lowber should take the machinery and its appurtenances was founded in mistake, and should be strickengout, nnd the agreement reformed according- ly: and that Lowber be ee from taking any further steps in the action at law referred to in the pleadings, and that he pay the coste of this suit, includ- ing the costs of the appeal. Judge Mitchell dissented from this opinion, remaining of the same opinion ax that expreased at apecial term. Si Court. Before Hon. Judge Clerke. THE AMORY ESTATK--OPENING OF THE FOURTH AVE- NUK. Duo. 6.—The postponement interposed on the part of the purchasers, by reason of alleged difficulties in the title, would not affect any interest vested in. them by the purchase, unless their refusal totake the deeds at the stipulated time was regarded by venders as 4 disaiirmance or avoidance of the sale. So far from thia being the case, proceedings were instituted on behalf of the latter to compel the purchasers te complete the con tract; and, acsordingly, they were decreed, after a long lit'gation, to accept the deeds and pay the purchase mo_ ney; which they did, with interest the Ist of May, 1852—when, according to the terms of sale, the deeds were to be delivered. If eee oe, any in- terest connected with the land, it might ax have cur- tailed the land itself, or revoked the purchase altogether, Whatever, therefore, bel to the heirs of Mr. Amo. ry, at the time of the sale in the tease sult, was transferred by virtne of the sale to purchasers, who from that period became the equitable owners. They became entitlod to all the right, title and interest in and oppertaining to the lots, including the interest in the land in front of the centre of the avenue. They are equitably entitled, then, to their proportionate part of the sums awarded by the Commissionors for this land. Report confirmed. Superior Court—Part Second. Before Hon.

He started up, and on opening the aoor heard distinctly two men retreating, but he was unable w catch them. On examining the house he found that vooks, forks, knives, &c., were missing, and coats were seattered about the hall.’ The window of the basement, through which the burglars had entered, was open, and the inside shutter had been cut through. That same morning, about 5 o'clock, a police officer aaw two men ent@Ping No. 6 Bayard street with a basket. The officer, in company with Captain Norris, subsequently followed them into this house, and ina room up stairs discovered the men, one of whom was the prisoner.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. MONKEY MARKET. Tuvrsvay, Dec, 6—6 P.M. The market waa unsteady this morning, au improve- ment appearing in some of the fancies, while others de- clined. Erie closed 3 better, and the Incomes 34; Can- . 4: New York Central, 4, and Reading 4%. On the ocher hand, Harlem was 3; per cent cheaper, and rail- road bonds generally were heavy. Illinois Central and New York Central Bonds sold from 4; to % below yea- terday’s rates. Another defaleation came to light to-day. ft was stated that W. P. Sackett, the second tellerof the Mar ket Bank, was a defaulter to the amount of $25,000, ‘The Directors of the bank report that they have secarity bonds to the amount of $8,000, and that Sackett had passed over to them other property valued at $5,000— leaving the bank minus $12,000. While the brokers were talking over this affair, intelligence was received of the arrest of the defaulter teller of the Ocean Bank. ‘The total imports for the last fiscal year—which were not given in the Treasnry Report—were $304,662,81; and the exports of foreign and domestic produce were $278,241,064—the difference being thus twenty-six, and 1ot six millions, as erroneously printed in the report. If we had all lived within ovr means, and undertaken no reckless enterprises, built no bad railroads, and dono a prudent business generally, there would be nothing to alarm we in av excess of imports over exports of twenty millions of dollars. ‘The friends of the great railroads state that the pros- pect of their surmounting their difficulties is improving. A rumor, which is not traced to any reliable source, as- serts that a bid has been made for half the new Erie Joan; but tho rate of discount proposed is not mention- 4. OF the Central loan, a trifle over one-sixth has been placed apiong the friends of the road at par, When the next dividend falls due, it is proposed to pay it in these bonds at par, together with the August one, which the company finds it impossible to pay, as they intended, ia cash. This plan of paying dividends in bonds is likely to depreciate not only the Contral stock, but all railrond securities, ‘The friends of the Nicaragua Transit Company ctate qhat ell (bq pending didicullien bevwomn the and Commotore Vanderbilt have been antisfactorily ar- ranged, aud that both parties have given and received mutual discharges, A thorough reorganization has taken place in the Me. Culloch Mining Company. Under the oid management no money has been made, and the stock, after rising to $12 per share, has fallen to fifty cents. Arrangements have now been made by which the contrel of the mine and works has been placed in the hands of Walter Wm Palmer, mining engincer, and it may be expected that the mine will at last be thoroughly tested. ‘The company has at longth come to its senses. ‘The fo}iowiug railroad statistics are given by a West- ern paper:— Length.
