WHOLE NO. 7196. Whe Panama Rallroad and the Postmaster General, Mo carefal observer of the times in which we live can be fasenaible to the pending question between the Postmaster General and the Panama Raliroad Company. There bas ‘appeared a Gespatch from Washington, dated May 2, Scattering broadoast the intelligence that the President ‘bas sent @ special message to Congress, enclosing the oor- Tespondence between these parties, and that the Postmas- ter General unwillingly yielded to the unjust and exorbi- tantdemand of the company, ‘claiming s greater amount than that heretofore allowed for carryiog the mails @eross the isthmus.’’ The Postmaster General recom- mends that he be authorized to contract with that com- pany for such conveyance of the malls, at a price not ex- greding $50,000 per annum; also, that he be allowed to begin a semi-monthly service to California, vis Nicaragua, et a price not exceeding $200,000 per annum. ‘The “correspondence” bas thus become public proper- ‘ty, and we have examined it in advance of its official pub- ‘Ucation. It is a pity that it could not have been scatter- ed as widely as the despatch we have alluded to. If so, it would be well understood that the company have only elaimed what was guaranteed them by law and contrast. But to the facts. A law was passed March 3, 1851, in oonfo rmity to # re- Commendation of the Postmaster General of Devember, | 1860, directing him ‘‘to enter into centract, or to make @uitable arrangements, for transporting the mail be- ween Chagres and Panama with regularity and despatoh, provided the rate of compensation shall not exceed twenty- two cents per pound, and chall cease on the establishment of any mew route between the two oceans offering great- ~ @ despatch and economy.”’ (Under this the mails have been carried at 22 cents per pound, and we have a strong impression that all usage ‘and precedent at the capital interpret this law to cirect * that ff the mails were carried by weight they should be paid for at $2 cents per pound. On the 20th of March, 1855, ,the Postmaster General ‘wrote the company, alleging that they had reduced their roharges for express goods, and that be could no longer | pay 22 cents per pound. He offered to pay 18 cents per - pound—three cents more than the maximum rate charg- - 0d by the company for express goods. This he conceded to the “national importance of the work.” He appears to have had an erroneous impression that the general charges on express goods from dock to dock was 10 cents per pound—this being the rate from city toeity, and not including lighterage and other charges. ‘The railroad company refused to accept this rate, and | -{n the correspondence which has passed om the subject they state explicitly that Great Britain pays them 22 cents per pound for mail matter; that for several years— whilst the rosd was incomplete—they paid out formule hire nearly the whole of the amount they received from the depariment at this rate, and that they regarded the ~company aa entitled to this rate if paid by the pound. Beginning with the quarter ending 8lst March, 1865, the Postmaster General ordered the payment of their ac- sount at 18 cents per pound, for the reason that he would not pay more. The difference between 18 and 22 centa per pound amounted, om the 31st December, 1855, to over $18,000, the other money received by the railroad com- pany being acknowledged as payment on account. During the early discussion of this question a commit- ‘460 of the Panama Company waited upon the Postmaster | General, and informed him that there was force in his Objections to allowing the weight of the mails to goon dnerensing while they received pay at a» rate per pound, ‘They propoced to make « contract for a fair, reasonable sum per snnum, which should cover the transportation @f any bulk or weight of mails he might send over the eed. They left him with the understanding that ke ‘Would make a per annum contract, and at such rate of a as would be satisfactory to the company. their charter they could not diminish the rate per pox 44 for our government, without doing so for all ether -but they were willing t) maké a Mimit, and for a long while regarded the matter as adjust- 04, and that the four cents per pound would be accounted for when the contract should be arranged. ‘Time wore on, and it became evident that this contract ‘would not be made. Tie company applied in very decided terms for their back pay, $18,008: In reply, Mr. Camp- Dell referred to his declaration months back that he would pay only eighteen cents per pound. ‘The company at this time denied his right to give Gespotic orders, changing » mutual understanding under anexpreea act of Congress, and thus to enforce views of his own, to which they had never assented. This was not more than they had beon in the habit of reoeivring, but the price ogreed upon. They insisted upon its payment. It was ordered to be paid. The sequel is the message to Congress to which we have aliuded. ‘There is more thaa one issue in all this. No one party to apy contract has the right to change its terms, and adhere to his own views against the protest of the other party. Opinions cannot differ as to this. Tyranny of executive officers over contractors is as odious as any other tyranny. We mistake the character of those ori, ginstirg thia great enterprise if they will for a moment bow to such dictation. We think Mr. Campbell abandon- ed wirely this pretension. ‘There is another and broader issue, Whether the price oftwenty-two centa per pound made the pay excessive. Ifeo, waa the plan proponed by the company a remedy, and why was {it not adopted? The reasons for a fair acaual payment are conclusive. The press must not be fettered—its power must not be circam- ecribed. Especially should all facilities for correspon.

Net tte ebarter cor the proposals of the railroad company were antagonistic to the preae. Our vision should expand a little beyond the present, or a sonceeston of three cents per pound on account of the “national importance of the work.’”” We have lived to see it completed, Ton ycars ago this wou'd have been a bold prediction.

Marahal Pelienier proposed the health of the Emperor Alexander, and in a long speech expressed his venera- tion for his Majesty, and his warm sympathies for Ve Rusalan troops. A great number of officers and soldiers of the armies vieited the Russian camp. Gen. Luders adds that, on the whole, great oordiality prevailed on both sides. The Independance Belge throws some doubts on the au- thenticity of the speech alleged to have been delivered at Moscow by the Czar. Accounts from Teheran state that American travellers were busy trying to convinoe the Persian government of the utiity of a treaty with the United States, espe- cially uncer existing circumstances.

A correspondent from Canton, China, writes as follows to the Univers, of Paris, under date of January 12:— A few days ® placard was ited on the walls of Canton against nited States ter. Itis not an Official act, but every one was convinced that the bili had been posted at the instigation of the mandarins, Here in the literal tranelation:—‘The American, Doctor Parka, (Parker,) bas been for a long time in a Coat office of our city; his acts there were upright and humble. A few years since he lived in a Buropean dwelling in sini. ung street; then he sought for business amongst tho poor people; but rince then he has caused a great deal of uprcar, whioh bas rendered the habitation of the street very inconvenient. Formerly he was employed in gov- crument affairs; he thea showed himeolf haughty, and acted in a disorderly and frivolous manner. Later, lsben and Ho, (names of the two obiets of the rebels,) burned and ransacked the: bape A and destroyed the villages and cities; tty also billed and reduced to captivity the peacea- bleinhabitants. Parka is certainly in correspondence with them; we have even heard it said tnat he has secretly helped them and furnished them with powder. We of coumse Co not know wha’ hissecret motives are. Amongst the population of Canton those things have caused the greatest consternation. We understand that Parke has just returned to Canton. We be'feve that he will blush ‘to appear before the face of men, and it will certainly be dificult for him to tind a place to rest. Given by the people of Canton.’’ Our London Correspondence.

The Naval Review—British Parliament—The Italian Question—Text of the Treaty of Peace of Paris—The Sound Dues, de., dc. ‘The brilliant naval review at Spithead took place with “* Queen’s weather,’’ and without accident. It is true the Honorable members of the House of Commons are in great ill humor because tho arrangements for their comfort were not perfect, but that is the only mishap I have to enumerate. After its holiday, Parliament hes resumed its labors. Two or three questions were put Isst night relative to American affairs, The veteran Lord Lyndhurst gave notice that at aa early day he intended to call the atten- tion of their lordehips to the state of Italy, and the oon- tinued military oceupation by Austria of extensve por- tions of that country beyond her own limits, thereby creating great ard general dissatisfaction, disturbing the political equilibrium, and endangeriog the peace of Europe. On the same subjest— The Earl of Clanricarde moved for copies of reports and correspondence relating to the oecupation of Parma by Austrian troops and the assumption of the govern- ment of the Duchy by Austrian authorities, The Kari of Clarendon explained that by a convention between the governments of Parma and Modems and Austria the Ducbies were entitled to call in the aid of Austria in case of need. After the assassination of the late Duke of Parma and during the subsequent disorders the Duchess declared the provinse in a state of moge, and, according to the convention, called {n the aid of Austria; there had been no special intervention by that Power in ccmaequence of recent events, as an Austrian battalion nad been kept in Parma since 1849. Believe me, we have not heard the end of this Italian question. Genera! Ia Marmora, in an address to the | Sardinian army, said that though the peace hal disap- po'nted their hopes of glory, it was satinfactory that they might be of service to italy. What England will do with the 3,000 men of the Italian Legion now at Malta I do not know. ‘These men, all Italians, are already very effistont soldiers, and would exceedingly relish a “go” at Naplon and King Bomba, and still more against the head of the House of Hapsburg—the man who has granted the concordat and placed his neck undsr the foot of the Pope. The text of the treaty of poace of Parts, miaus four erticles, has found ite way into the London ‘papers.

The Parla correspondent of the Indépendance Belge writes as follows:— Thave just bees informed that Aal: Pasha has received & telegraphic despatch from Constantinople, aanounci naeaing othe Grand Connell, the dismiss of the Horpodars ot Wallachia and Moldavia was decided upon, and an Ottoman Commissary appointed.

Lonvon, April 26, 1856. Action of Mr. Dallas in the Crampton Case—Lord Pat merston’s Dificulty—British Popular Feeling with the the United States—Mr. Dallasand Lord Byron—Home Politico The Peace Treaty and European Liberty—the Naval Review~ Mr. Baring’s Health. You are aware that a peremptory demand was made by Gov. Marcy on the British government, last January, for the recall of Mr. Crampton, British Minister at Wash- ington. Lord Palmerston has not yet complied with this demand, and Mr. Dallas has, according to ‘instructions, requested his answer since hia arrival, and is daily ex- pecting it, Tbe Prime Minister here must be in s “Ax,” as wesay. If he refuses to recall his Minister at Wash- ington, it is likely Gov. Marcy will sent him off, which he will be justified in doing, for he has abundant cause in pewoving Mr. Crampton’s complicity in the enlistment matter. Lord Palmerston must choose between recalling his Minister, who has simply obsyed bis instructions from home, or allow himtobe dismissed by ourgovernment, which would naturally break off diplomatic connestion for & time between the countries. This would not lead to war, which it |s ridiculous to think of, but it would create uneaseness on this side, and certainly upset the Pal- merston Cabinet. The Prime Minister is in “a fix,’’I repeat; but le is the best hand in the world for getting outofit. The shortest way would be for him to hint to Mr. Crampton to resign, and for this timely act Lord Palmerston oould gtve him a far better berth at home. This wou'd end all difficulty without bringing up the question cf honor or dignity, One thing is certain—Lord Pal mereton must get out of the scrape without endacgeriog the peaceful relations of the two countries, for, the com- mercial horror of England at their interruption was so heartily expressed at the Lord Mayor’s dinner to Mr. Dallas, cf last week, that no Cabinet here can stand an hour which contemplates anything but amity with the United States. ‘The 7Jimes was compelled by this demonstration to come out and praise dir. Dallas’ admirable speech to the skies, and its tone {s completely altered since the public have read it. No American Minister to Eng- land ever made a greater hit, for ina tew sententious phrases, he demonstrated that no impediment stood in the way ofa pacific arrangement, if some “ {inexorable State policy” did not eek another solution. He strack the nail on the head, and the eye of this country is vigi- lantly directed to the measures of the government. In short, there is no mistaking the sentiments of the Faglish people towards us, for since Mr. Dallas’s happy début at the “ Mansion House”’ dinner, he has been run down b; calls and invitaticns from the highest in the land, whic his arduous duties, at the present juncture, force him to decline. He is quite the topie of conversation, and anec- dotes of all sorts are clroulating about him. is worth relating:—Many years ago Mr. Dallas was in Ecgland, as Secretary to Mr. Gallatin. He called on his relative, the {llustrious poet, Byron, who received him with great warmth, For eome reason or other Lord did not return the calla of young Dallas, whose Yankee blocd was Toused by this negieet, and he’ stopped, his visita to his lordship. Ore cay, meet & mutual friend, Byron inquired, “Well, what bas me of that repubiican George’ { never see him row.” “Why,” was the answer, “the expreesicn your lordship has applied to him may explain the reason of his disappearance.”’ The poet re- flected a moment, then exclaimed: ‘He is right. 1 honor his democratic pride. I will eall on him to-morrow.” He did so, and alwsys reated young ‘Republican George” with the greatest cordiality thereafter. He gave him the ‘Corsair’ to read in manuscript, and was aelighted to hear him say ‘that ten would read itin the United States to ove in England, from the superior education of the people.”’ ‘The Americans here are getting anxious to know what the Convention at Cipcinnati are going to do. The story here ia that the South are going for General Pierce, and it he can’t get the nomination, that he will give his votes to the next best man in, bis view—to Dallas or Douglas. Mr.,Buchanan’s quarrel with General Pierce. it is thought here, will ruin his chances. How is all this? ‘The Corgress at Paris has broken up, and the treaty of peace is leaking out, The Black Sea in declared open to the commeroe of ali nations, as well as the navigation of the Danube. England wid’ certainly be the gainer by these commersial arrangements. though it wilLtake her a long time to earn back the hundred million¥ sterling the war bas cost her. Rustia seems well satisfied to get out of the scrape, for contending against four nations at one moment was'no joke, though she stood her ground valiantly. It seems she is determined to repair her loss- 08 by extreme activity, &c., ashing internal improve- mente ahead rapidly. | New railroads, canals and har bore are the order of tho day, and if ever she ge's into new war, she will be better prepared for it. the Danu- bian Principalities, the granary of Kurope, remain, untor- tunately, under the brutal yoke of the , and Austria is anxious to keep them there, for hor own interests. Russia hae sided with England and France in proposing the emanctpation of these arr, mations, who are tyrannized over by infidels far inferior to them in elvili- za\ion, Ressia is determined to be revenged on Austria, ‘and would be glad now to aid Hungary to rive again and demolish her oppressor. .

Count Cavour, the Serdiniar Pleni, potentiary te the Paris Conference’, has aitwsded hiw the opportunity, and Louis Napoleon will haste» to improve tt, though'mot without discretion, It {a well known that when Souls Napoleon, as Ptest- dent of the French Republic, invaded the~ Papal States te’ put down the cemocrats and sostalists, he required ef the Pope, who had then fled to Naples, that, previous te’ his return, he should pledge hinnself to operate cortate reforms in his dominions. The principal one of these,: and which was. most seriously urged cn-hig Holiness, was the separation of the governmont of the Church frem, the political and civil administration of his States, The- prelates of the Catholie Church wero+o perform thelr api- ritual functions as usual, but in the-civil and polities! administration of the affairs of State they wero to be aue- ceeded by laymen. The Pope received this proposition im sullen silence, and never deigned to rspiy to it. He cen- tinued in Naples till Napoleon at last got tired, and the Pope returned without introducing the demanded im- provement in his government. The same question is mow mooted by Count Cavous, and, no doubt, strongly. backed: by England and (would you believe it?) Rassia, Eng- Jand has strong political reasons to diminish the politi- cal influence of the Church of Rome on the affairs of Italy, while Russia can have no other than religions ones. The Catholic and Greek Churches are rivals in the East, and » separation of Church and State im the- Roman States could not but at least indirectly cea- tribute to fortify the Greek Church by the union @ doth im Russia. England and Russis have, far- ther, a certain pleasure in teazing Austria, with the demands of Sardinia as regards Rome, Naples and the: kingdom of Lombardy and Venice, which belongs to Aws- ‘tria herself; because each of these Powers-conceives Itself” badly treated by Austria, and cares not how-scon they; may be able to reta'iate upon her.
