' t We fear matters on the Rio Grande c are not being conducted with that pru- t dance the condition of our country re- I quires. Oar forces under Gen. Weitzel 1 and the French forces under Melia are 1 in such close, proximity that coolness 1 end sagacity me requisite to prevent , the animosity which secretly exists be- , tween the two partiee from ruanifestiog itself ill open war. , - , - t , ,,, . The correspondence between the commanders of the armies ' on the opposite banks of the Rio Grande evinces a wilBaguets on their part to precipitate difficulties between their respective Governments, not at ell pleasant to contemplate. Each of them Appear to be standing with chips on their shoulders, vigorously challenging the other to knock them off, while both evidently realize that there is danger they may go so far with their foolishneu as not to be endorsed by their Governments. r . - 1 There is no necessity, just now,- for a wsr with Prince. The Mexican question will be settled all in good time, end in a way very satisfactory, and not expensive to the people. ' The true policy for es, at the present is to take things ,patiently. We have all the edvantage in a future struggle both with Frence and England that it is folly for us to throw away by acting precipitately just now, , - . In this view of the case, we think it would be wise for our Government either to place an older and cooler bead in oommand of its forces on the Rio Grande, or inetruct General Weitzel to attend strictly to his own command. It is proper for him to notify our Government of outrages against civilization end humanity, as they are committed by the French forces, but if there is any protesting to be done, let it be doue by odi Government in the name of the American people. Preeented to the world in , such a shape. France will not be dia.. I posted to regard it lightly. ' On the COn trary, she will think it bigh time to look after the atrocities , committed by her cruel and heartless commanders.

' ' Louisville Daily Nall. We have received from Judge Obar les Mason, of Cannelton, a memorial. letting forth the necessity fa' of Packets between our city and Louis. ville, and requesting the Postmaster Generel to establish the same. The memor.ial alleges that said mail route is about 200 miles in length, and accommodates in the aggregate at least 254,608 people. This is exclusive of a large population in the tier of counties imme r - diately bad! of those bordering 011 tir river. - These citizens, exclusive of those in tie cities at the termini of the roate, depend exclusively upon the river for their trade and mail facilities. Exclusive ot the same cities, the value of trade (imports and exports) of the' intermediate points is nearly, if not quite, $19,000,000 per annuta, or a fraction less than', $60,000ser day. The memo- '. rial ventures the. assertion that there is not pother, instance in the United States of an equal number of industrious ana enterprising Caiienii,'doing an squat amount of business, who are destitute of a daily mail. - - tinder the present arrangement the mitnorialists receive four mails a week . , each way, an arraiagement whicit deprives them of Eastern mails from Sunday to the followini Wednesday of ðevery ireek.'., This is justly regarded as ex- - tremely' oppressive. Such a condition of snits, if it existed in Rhode Island, with .8,, less population, ,would result in a second Dorris 'Rebellion.' What makes the matter more aggravating to the memorialists:is that the business upon the river is sufficient to give employment to a daily line of boats, and it is difficult to conceive why it is that so much trade should possess such in, ferior mail facilities.- We. cannot close without coiling a portion of the closing paragraph of. the ,memorial. It is as follows; s' ' ' - ' ' - ' To be deprived of all knowledge of , what la doing in this busy, changing ' ' world, from Sunday to the next Wednes- ' day of every week, and in the meantime to behold from six to twelve steamboats steaming past 'our very doors, coming directly irom the centers of trade, intelligence and activity, to whichwe look for information, is a spectacle sot very , well calculated to increase the contentment and amiability of enterprising and moderately ambitious people ! Without intending to be unjust towards the Loukrill and Henderson Mail Packet Company, the present mail carriers on this tOtite, we respectfully suggest that they might improve upon the 'mode of'dis- - charging their duties in this behalf. We insist that private interests should be subordinate to the public welfare, and yet it has not escaped our observation, that for several years past the mail carriers along this route have universally reversed thia salutary rule and subordinated the public welfare to their owa convenience. It has been an easy matter for them to find passable excuses for , not performing their contract whenever their cupidity tempted them to trespass upon the good nature 'of the people. All this we have borne patiently, because we were not disposed to grumble and because for the last five years thle Government and the people have bean absorbed in the great events of the rebellion. The war fortunately closed, now presents a favnrable opportunity for correcting thoae evils, so long and so quietly endured. We think that in the matter of conveying the mails upon this route the people have the right to insist that contractors shall "come to time11that the ' mails shall not be delayed to accommodate the trade of individuals, but that personal interests shall give way to the wants of the public. When mail contractors learn that their boats are for the purpose of conveying the mails, and that the way-trade is but an ineident of their object,' then the people will be accommodated, as they ought to be, and will also understaud that a "Gaited States Mail Packet" means something more than a mere salaried imposition, or a licensed trade manopoly. Some - of us know of instances on this route where towns receiving 4 mails lie just opposite each other, one in , Kentucky and the other in Indiana, when the whole' population of one town has been kept waiting for hours tor the packet to transact its business on the opposite aide of the river, before deliming the mail to them, although it would have been a trifling task to make the landing and deliver the mail on the opposite side first, Such total disregard of the wants and wishes ot a large number of people, is an intolerant grievance which we hope soon to see entirely removed., There is allso great need of improvement in the manner of distributing the mails along the route. Letters mailed for a town perhaps not more than six or ten miles distant from the place of mailing, are very frequently carried to Louisville or Evansville and not left at their destination for 'days after date of mailing, when they ehould arrive there in aa many hours. This is a very common occurrence, and to us it seems knight be avoided. We will also state that the memorial was laid before the merchants of our city yesterday for their signatures, and that copies may also be found at the Post Office, sod 'hussar. office, to which oitizets may attach their names if so , disposed. We regard the matter as well worth their attention. ; , , Aspects and Prospects. , Home Greek having returned from Washington, where he had a long interrew with the President, writes hie opinion of the situation, in the - New York Tribune, se follows: We spent the latter part of last week at Washington, anxiously inquiring into the political -situation, -and seeking to measure the probability, of the rumored breach between the President and Congress, 'touching Southern "restoration" or "reconstruction;" and we believe most of our readers will share the satisfaction with which we announce our eonelusion that there need be, and probably will be none. What maladroit, or malignant, or tale-bearing intermeddlers may achieve, we cannot foretell; but we are confident that there is no necessary incompatibility between the views and purpoees- of Congress' and those of the President, and no deaireat least, no ' preponderant desireon either hand to create such au incompatibility. And we feel sure that frank, earnest, kindly conferences between the Capitol and the White House will speedily and almost certainly remove any obstacles, which may seem to exist to a cordial and thorough co-operation. Let us briefly set forth the chief meets of the problem to be solved; , The President earnestly desires ana urges the restoration of the Southern States to their former position in the Craton and in Congresa In his view those States have never been out of the Union since they were severally admitted into it, because they had no power to go out; and no portion of their people bad any power to take them out. He would Lava she right c4 each State to a voice

in the Netional. Councils recognized fullx, cordially, and promptly as may be. Such is, essentially, the President's position. r 11, , - CongreiterOn. its. park., desiresi.. first, that the restoration of power to the South, or the South to pc-wer, shall not involve or draw after it the power of merely whitewashed rebels to repudiate the National debt, or impose the rebel debt on the loyal States, or the loyal people of any State, or, an combination with their sypathizers in the North,' to pervert the authority, prestige and pa. tronage of the Union into an instrument of vengeance to he wielded by those who would have destroyed the Union against those who lavished blood and treasure to save it. In other words, it is resolved that they shall not win by "restoration" what they risked and lost by secession. Secondly, it feels a solemn obligation to protect and shield the freedmen from injustice and revengeful inflictions prompted by their participation in and profit by the great National triumph. In oiler words, it feels bound to secure to tium the rights, and immunities, not merely of freedmen, but freemen. We believe this is a perfectly fair statement of what is meditated at either end of the avenue.

,' Don't Pay them a Cent. In reference to the proposition to equalize the soldiers' bounties, the Paymaster General says: It is- certain that to a greater extent than is now apprehended, such legiels tion will inure to the benefit of speculating adventurers all over the land, who have been , buying soldiers' discharges with a view to such anticipated legislation, and who are now doubtless covertly pressing its coneammation.,. If this measure of justice to the soldier ebould prevail. not a dollar should be paid to any one but a soldier or his widow and children. No speculator should have a cent of it, because the purchase of these claims is a fraud from the beginning. They were purchased under the representation that they would pr.obably never be worth anything, and also with the knowledge of the speculatore that they could bring influence enough to bear upon Congress to secure the appropriation., Let not a cent be paid to second band , It was a long time before people could understand why it was that agents-were running over the country buying up all the discharges open which they cuuld lay their bands. The milk in the sows, nut is now easily discerned. Ws trust the schemes of the speculators will come to naught. , Ask Soldiers, Monument. - The Madison Cburicr males the following suggestions concerning a subject which has already been canvassed considerably by our paper. We trust that steps will be taken immediately to coop pieta the subecription already under headway in this county and a contract entered into for a monument thst will be creditable to the liberality of our chi. zens and the skill of our mechanics: -- The last Legislature passed a law allowing County COMMiSSIOnall tO accept donations and appropriations to aid in the erection of suitable monuments, in each county, to the memory of those who have fallen in the late war for the Union. We hope our people will begin to' talk this matter over, and come at once to the conclusion that, inasmuch IIS Jefferson Mins.? vise smuug Lbw tires in furnishing -men and means to carry on the war, she will not be last in paying proper respect to the memory of those who fell whilst defending her honor. On almost every battle field this county has honored representatives, now silent in deatheverywhere her gallant sons did their duty nobly; and now we say let the memories of those who sleep on yonder fields of strife ever be held as sacred trusts by us. A monumedt, with the name of every soldier who went from the county and died in the service of his country inscribed thereon, would but hand down to future generations a record that alt would reverence. Talk this matter over at your firerges, and in due time let the world hear just bow much you prize the .blessings of liberty, and revere the names of those who gained it. - ' The Memphis Ávalanehe is working just as diligently to misrepresent and villify the people of the North as it did before the rebellion.t Every paper that we receive, teems with filthy slang and abuse of that description. Inasmuch as the fang. of the reptile have been extracted, it may be regarded as not worth while to stop its hissing and other manifestations of impotent venom, not. withstanding their iiiipleasantness. In one of the last numbers received,,:we find the following paragraph in a long article, equally false and disgusting: The i high17 civilized North, which supplies the inferior South ith three things she cannot possibly produce: o' ice, play-actors and prostitutes," sends off ship loads of women to supply the mark-, ets of the world, and surprises Christ tendom with a new adventare of avarice. liassachusetts thinks it terrible that families of negroes should be sundered for the convenience of traders, but exports to Washington Territory, thoosands of miles away, ship loads of marriageable women, who are to take the best chance, that is the higheet bidder for 1 their terms, when they have arrived at their market.. Avarice winks at the transaction; it has no pity for family ties torn amender; it has no sentiment for the blush of virtue; it descends td a trade, the main idea of which ie borrowed from the slave marts of Constantinople, or the more unclean stens of. modern prostitution. - The editors of the Avalancie n2nat be played out, renegade Yankees.. None there, we think, eould find it in their hearts to so vilify and slander that potlion of this country which is the center of the wealth, intelligence, and purity of this continent and the world., ; t 4. , - Hew It -Happened. - The Enquirer , speaking of the' Vice President, says:, -i, Of the seventy-seven years the office has been in existence, the North halt had it sixty years to the South's seventeen yearn, To this the Times replies that it couldn't well be otherwise,' for when the South took the Presidency, the !seat they could do for appearance sake wee to give the North the Vice Presidency.

Women and Little Children Starving. .i4A ott, , Mom the Phiteseiphiellusuirer.3 , For some days past we have endeavorsd, to lay before the readers of the inguirer a truthful idea of the 1101TOWS sad sufferings of the poor or our city, and more especially of those dwelling in the memorable vicinities of Bedford Spofford and Baker streets. Desirous, however to see for ourselves, we joined an expl:dition fitted out on Wednesday, evening laat. ' Reaching Seventh and'.., Bedford streets, we proceeded to explore' cellars, garrets and hovels in search of the lack, the sorrowful and the destitute, although in truth from the moment we entered the street we were literally surrounded by just such persons as we songht, "Kind sir, won't you please give me ' some bread for my little !children, they have not had a mouthful -to,day," said' a wretched looking woman. , have three little ones in that cellar, eir, and they're cold and hungry," cried another half-clad mother. "Please' to give me a piece of bread, I'm so hungryr, Wed a dozen childisla voiceo, the owners of which,7 barefooted and bareheaded, crowded around us in that icy street. eWaeg e rgnasyses two i tabl wwbbioc haptphloai e loot itebase children, as they stood upon the ice, devoured the little- pittance we were able to give them, attested the sincerity ot their appeal& : Great God! is it not terrible to think that scenes like this should be witnessed in Philadelphia, the city noted above all others for ,its wealth and benevolence. Returning to the Home, our bags and baskets were replenished, and we once more entered Bedford street.! - Notwithatsnding the number that had been sepplied s few minutes before, the crowd bad not lessened, nor were the appeals for food any less earnest or touching. , We gave to all indiscriminately, not being able -in the darkness to tell who were deserving and who unworthy. The great fact stared us in the face that men, women and children were fel:116140g for. bread, and we gave them all we bad. Leaving the streets for a moment or two, the whole party would clamber down unsafe stairways into dismal cellars, where grim poverty and tell disease reigned with undisputed sway. Ohl the scenes of sorrow and suffering we witnessed.' Once strong men lying in filth and destitution, and seeing hunger gnawing the vitals of their wives and children; mothers pleading for food and fire for their perishing little opes, and little children piteously crying for bread and something to protect them from the sharp, biting frost. ' - In one cellar we found three families, with children, all without beds, all without food and all without fuel, save the handful of coals which smouldered in their poor apology for a stove.. ' God's day never' visits this abode of misery save through the open cellar door. Plunging into a dark, narrow and filthy alley or court along Baker street, we found a two-storied shed the rooms of which were not more than eight feet equsre. This ehed contained some ten or twelve of these rooms, all of which were occupied. - We ascended to, the upper. tier and knocked for admission. It was at first refused, but when we uttered the magic word, "breadr: doors flew Open, eager faces weleomed us, 'and eager hands grasped the precious morsel. , Children were ftweitenedfrom their cheerless sleep, and received the proffered bread with glistening eyes. Ob, bow they seemed to enjoy the &tie we were able to divide with them, and with what more comfortable feelings they gathered the few rags with, which they wme covered around them, 9, and sought sleep once more., Mothers; in Icountleas numbers implored God's blessing upon those through wines kindness we were able to dispense the welcome food., , Every one of these eight fooi 'square rooms, wit,13 a single exception, couteined from three ,to five inmates. They cooked, ate and slept there. , Let us describe the last 013 we visited. The husband sat upon a box in front of what we tupposed was a Ere. We saw none, as he was couched over the furnace in such a manner as to bide it from view. -,The wife, a fine, comely looking woman, clad a thin summer drese, bade us ,enter. ,We did so, and will it be believed, that in that desolate room, the habitation of a man and wife, the only furniture was the box upon which, the husband eat, and the frame (without the seat) of a hickory with chair. No sign of bed, table, cooking utensils, food or clothing was visible. Bleak, gritualy walls and that chair frame and little box wig these poor creetures' only possession& A child died in Spafford street, near Shippen. Mr...Segenfried bad. learned of it in the aftern000, and informed us that the mother had not only neither food nor fuel, but was utterly deititute' of everything necessary for the child's burial -These were prcbvided by him.- Ws visted the house, reaching it by a dark alley and an, uncertain flight of steps. Entering the room, we saw at a glance where the dead : child lay, Removing the clothing from its little face, it was plainly and painfully evi dent that starvation, not disease, had done the work. We learned from the sister of the child's mother that they were wholly without food, and yet at the foot of the corpse a plate of smoking tobacco and half a dozen pipes were placed; and in that little room, not more than ten feet square, no less than14 men and women were crowded, waking the dead child. , , le another hovel near by.we found a woman with two pretty girls, sleeping upon a pile of scanty straw in the corner. The mother informed Os that she paid 25 cents per night for the privilege of sleeping there. The children were wholly without cover, and the room vas cold as it was desolate looking in other particulare. Accompanied by three police, we descended into a cellar on Bedford street, where lodgers are taken at five cents per night A soldier who b,ad lost both Itge in the war had taken quarters there for the - night, - while quite a number of very vicioue looking men were lying around loose. In the corner next the cellar door, covered with a few rem three children were lying. We gave them bread, which they ate greedily. - The mother, who seemed to have temporary charge of the place, stood guard over them. We asked her where she slept, as there was , not the shadow of a bed in the den. "Down there by the children," she said, "jiat there, sir, on them boards." Where do you sleep," we inquired of another woman who stood near. "Oh, sirr, said she, "I sleep with bet," point.ing to the mother of the children., In this den, ad many as thirty-aix man, woruen and children have been quartered at one time. -; The proprietrese was lyiug asleep upon the floor at the aildren'e feet.
