STAMPS AND ENVELOPES. According to the Washington correspondent of the N. Commercial, the cheap postage system has been much prejudiced, by tha difficulty of prepaying postage on letters

The Post Office Department is to cause envelopes to be made, with suitable water marks on the paper identifying them as official, aud with a printed stamp, for single or double postage, with a suitable device. These envelopes are to be Bold at all the post offices, at the price of the stamps now sold—with the very •mall addition of the actual coat of the envelopes, ^.wilfivr Eii.

There is a good deal of speculation abroad in reference to the political position of Mr. Webster. The Cincinnati Gazette sums it up thus "Since Mr. Webster retired to Marshfield, but little is said about his future course in th® Presidential contest. The Boston papers supposed to be his special organs, proclaim that ho will not soon define his position. The New York papers that have been loudest in complaint that Web ster was not nominated at Baltimore, are out for the nominee, Gen. Scott. The South-j ern support tendered to Mr. Webster, is notj and never was strong enough to give himj one electoral vote. The latest—the great

JIKW li vMrsuint: TKaiT, Ptmocr«tio paper* are laboring® make the impivaMon that thj D.-mocracy of New ffampjh"*- hove really de4red tho repeal of the Catholic Tent, which atiU makes an important clause in the Constitution of that State. If tho Democracy iave been at any titn© in e&rneat on the subject of this repent, why WM it not done 1 That party has, and have always had the majority, and of course the control in this very matter and they hare to controlled it to keep this Tea' •till in force. But it is known that Whig# did vot to abolish this Teat—and the Democrats to retain it. And it was retained--—• So the question definitely aettl'd a* to the policy of Pierce and hit party iu New lUmp*hire on that subject,

The Baltimore Amrkx* MVriog to the recent visit of Gt u.

There were a number of gentlemen from othef Southern States who were introduced, and also several of the soldiers of

Maryland, who had takeu part in the Mexican war. The scene throughout, evinced the deep hold that Gen. So»rr has on the hearts of the people, and how enthusiastic is the zeal with which they advocate his election, and the full confidence they feel that he will be elected.

FIRE—A fire bruhe out Wednesday afternoon in a kiln-dry building belonging to Mr. Thompson, on First street, opposite Wallaces Foundry. The building, with a large amount of lumber nearly dried, inside, was entirely consumed—loss from $300 to $400. The loss falls heavily upon Mr. Thompson, as the lumber was nearly ready for use in
