TUESDAY t : MAY 18, 1"69. Tbe Post Office KemoTal. The editor pro tern, of the Courier ha3t L -nog the past two weeks, taken occasion to attack the new Postmaster of this city for the removal of the Post Office, and holds him reponsi ble for the change. Io an article on Sandr.y morning he shows the animus which inspires his editorial attacks, which is a mean and petty spite at the Journal Company. We Lave not thought it necessary heretofore to notice hi3 articles, but now that the office is removed to its new quarter?, ani the public have an opportunity of examining it and deciding upon the merits of the change, we desire to make a brief statement of facts. There ha3 been for a few years past a decided and growing sentiment in this commnnity that the Post Office was not, in external appearance or internal arrangements, up to the growth and wants of the city. When the new Postmaster was appointed, he resolved, if possible, to procure an office in some degree commensurate with the business of the city, and one in wh!ch her citizens might have some pride as one of their public institu tions. The building in which it was then located was by no means well adapted to the purpose. A location about the corner of Main and Second Streets would have been selected, but it was impossible to get a suitable building in that locality at anything approximating the rent which the Government would be willing to pay. There was no room in the city so well fitted for the purpose as the Music Hall in the Opera House. There was no baildiDg in the city in which so mapy of our citizens were personally and pecunia rily interested "as the Opera House. It was on the identical square, or opposite the location, where the Evansville Po3t Office had been situated the greater part of the past thirty years"; so that to bring it back there was to relocate it io its old status. The Public Hall Company made a tender of the rooms to the Government at a rental which our most experienced real estate ageDts certified to ithe Department was not more than half its ' real value. No other citizen or body of citizens made any offer at all equal to it. There was nothing left for tha Postmaster but to recommend its acceptance by the Government. There were no political considera tions which entered into the question. The Mayor of the city, in a letter tJ the Postmaster-General, endorsed the change in the most' unequivocal language, as both highly advantageous to the Government, and acceptable to the' great mass of this community. The President of .the "Democratic Crescent Club, together with Col. Charles Den by, and other prominent citizens, wrote letters asking that the change be made. Hon. William E." Niblack, the Democratic Representative from this District.not only made his written endorse ment of the removal, but went to the Postmaster General and personally urged the acceptance of the lease tendered by the Opera House Company, from hia own knowledge of the wants of Evansville. We mention these facts in order to show that poiitical considerations did not enter into the question, and that these prominent gentlemen of the Democratic party could rise above the petty questions of party personal spite, a feat apparently impossible with the nondescript editor of the Courier. So far as the question of location is concerned, it might be sufficient to say that it .is the original and long continued position of the Office. But it is even more convenient to the business men of the city than at its former location; and the mercantile men of the city within a radius of two squares of the Office, furnish to the Evansville Post Office more than two-third of its revenue, and for whose benefit more than all others the postal service is carried on. They visit the office from tour to eight times a day, when the great majority of the people do not come more than half as often. The Postmaster has furnished to the people what they have long demanded, the most attractive and best arranged office in the State; and this without expense to the Government, and, in excess of the contributions of adjacent property owners, at his own cost to an amount exceeding the value of the fixtures of the old office, lie claims no more credit for this than the discharge of a duty which any one, who, would accept the office, should render the community. He is anxious to make the office as convenient and valuable to the people as possible; and proposes to devote his time and energy to the duties of his position; to the increase of our mail facilities, and to their safe and speedy dispatch and delivery. If he shall accomplish these successfully, he will doubtless have justice done him by the community in an appreciation of his services. He is willing to let the future determine . of 'he removal of the Post Oflice, and the manner iu which the affairs of the office are conducted. Confession of Lord John Russell. The London correspondent of the Liverpool Journal says that Lord John Russell makes no secret of his opinion that the whole course of the British Government toward the United States until the point when it declined to recognize the South, was wrong. It is very easy for him to see the blunders of himself and colleagues now. The" present administration should not perpetuate the blunder by refusing to make due reparation.

Legality of ihe Uatlficalioif. As advised by telegraph, our readers are aware of the passage, by both Houses of the State Legislature, of the joint resolution ratifying the Fifteenth Amendment ; to .the Constitution of the United States. Owing to the "resignation' of the"Dembcratic members, it is. a question with many whether this ratification will be recognized by Canress;ahdUhe Supreme Court of the United States. The only

cause for doubt, is the provision, of the State Constitution which requires two-thirds of each branch of the Legislature to constitute a quorum for legislative business. There can hardly be a reasonable doubt of the regularity s of - the "proceedings of the Seoate, where there was a quorum present at the time of the passage of thg resolution of ratification; but in the House only fifty-seven out of one hundred members of that branch were present, fifty-four voting in Vthe affirmative, a clear majority of that body. While there is no question but ' that a State Constitution may prescribe the manner in which tate legislative action shall be had, it is contended Con-, gresa ha3 a right to determine what shall be a valid legislative actionj so far as the General Government is concsrned.'ii This Ls no new question in legislative proceedings, but has been f ally discussed and decided upon, in a case in which this. same provision of the Indiana Constitution was involved. The Indiacapolis Journal very appropriately views the facts as establish ed by good Democratic precedent.3. It s;iys that the Senate of the United States settled. the question effectually in the memorable Case of . Jesse D Bright and Graham N.' Fitch, ' elected Senators by a joint convention of - a majority of the whole number of members of, the legislature, but con vened by the vote and consent of but one house, with but a minority of the other house present. Here, there was totally lacking the form of, consent to ' the lectorar convention by one house, and totally lacking a majority ofj one houso to give validity to the action of that convention. '; Yet the Senate held that, as a majority of the one, hundred and, fifty members who compose both houses, was present, there was the" substance of the State authority present, and the substantial power of the State having been exercised, though in disregard of . forms, the United States would recognize and accept it. In the present case a majority of both houses, one by a full compliance even with the for gq3 of the State Constitution, the other by the majority required by the State Constitution, but in disregard of a form, which the BaiOHT case decided to be unimportant, have ratified the amendment. The substance of the State authority, and a portion even of the non-essential State forms j were present and exercised in the act. If the Bright and Fitch election was valid, the ratification is a fortiori valid. The New York Evening Psl calls attention to thesa interesting facts: The present century ha3 seen four great events : . ' , 1. Morse's invention of the telegraph, 2. The laying of the "Atlantic" Cable. . ., ... ... . . . . , 3. The death of slavery ' in the United States , , . ; , -. 4. The completion of the Pacific Railway. In twenty-five years the continent has been spanned by the wires of the telegraph. Ten years ago the lightning began to run beneath the sea. Five years ago the war for freedom ended, and slavery, died. Last week the iron track. wasmade complete from Portland to San Francisco. The young man of to-day, who has seen all these things accomplished, will have tales to tell to his grand children such as no grandsire of our day can summon from the.stores of his memory. Among the incomes returned in the Sixth District of New York, we find: Wm. B. Astor, $1,079,212; Wm. W. Cornell, $149,131; C. K. Garrison, $104,715; H. ,T., Helmbold, $152,205; S. N. Pike, $47,000; Henry J. Raymond, $25,150; Cornelius Vanderbilt, $69,230; Udolphe Wolfe, $71,916. Canada and Annexation. f From the New York Tribune. It can readily be understood why any sentiment in Canada favoring annexation to the United States should be very slow to make its appearance in the Canadian newspapers. Official influence, the sense" of loyatty,tbe dread ot agitation, the common tendency of the well-to-do classes, especially under British inspiration, to deprecate change, combine to make men whisper thir new heresy with bated breath. When it passes this stage of nominal reprobation by everybody, and enters the fields of ordinary discussion as a thing to be openly talked about; it has made a long stride toward securing the approval of the cautious and conservative majority. That it can be . mentioned at ail:withoufe being condemned is in itself a significant progress. Yet we find a reputable daily journal in Montreal, the Star, in its comments upon the news of an approaching visit from the British Minister to this country, to look into the reports about a desire for annexation, holding such language as this: Mr. Thornton will see a country, 3,000 miles f rom England more Tory than the strictest Conservative, and clinging to the name of a connection which carries as much practical significance as the He Jacet on a nameless grave; & country with the finest water-power in the world, holding, like a geographical pontiff, the keys which unlock the ocean and the inland, which open the great gates through which pass the manufactures of one continent, and the corn of another, and which commands the great highway between Europe and Asia. And a country which, while possessing thesa frfas,iru .

cock on a. dunghill, would give them all for a grain of barley: a country where all the business is done on credit, where ten per cent, of itrt tradesmen are insolvents annu- . -mnSA. A', .

ally, where for miles one rides by depopulated farms, whose starving inhabitants, have emigrated by thousands, and whose population is decresing at the rate of GO.OOO a year per million : a country ruled by a Government, a bank and a railway a Min

istry whose policy is Self, and whose Practice is Jobbery and a mass of prominent citizens running to a railway .station after a 'gallant Bart,' with the feverish intensity of so many curs after a spaniel. Mr. Thornton will find all these phenomena, springing from one cause British conoection." Of courpe, hard word?, of themselves, signify little; but that rampant Canadian loyalty has come to enciure, if not to approve, hard words like these, signifies tnnch. The Hon. Jacob Thompson, of Mississippi, recently made a speech to bis neighbors at Oxford, in that State, on his return from Europe. , He took rather a hopeful and ct ierful view of the situation. The people of the South had attempted by force of arms to set up and maintain a separate Government, and had failed. It was now their duty to accept the result of that failure in good faith; to struggle with a hearty good will to build up the waste places, and thus secure pros perity and plenty to the people, , Mr Thompson said : " In all ages the God of battles has made some curious and inexplicable decisions. But it is not for us to find out the reasons which controlled Him. It is ours only to obey the do cision, because from it there is no aD peal. In the late war the power of arms decided that we should remain one people, now and forever. The God of battles decided the case in favor of union. Now the true Chris tian must justify the ways of God to man, and therefore he must say it was wisest and best that the ca?e should be so decided. From this position a duty is devolved upon every man Each individual is bound to eontribute his mite to mak this peonle a great people,' strong, happy, prosper ous and glorious. FAST !FII21JI2.T! B.
