DAILY POST TO EXr.AND.-It would appear, the cable across the Gulf of St. Lawrence having been repaired and re biid, that our communication with the ONd World, by means of the Atlantic Telegraph, will be certain, constant and rapid. in future. We have to add ; that it is the intention of the British Government to establish, if possible, a daily post with this country-that is, to send a swift mail steamer from Liver pool every day in the week, by which letters and new.papers will be conveyed. In order to make tis A real been to' the public, the postage, which is nowv t wenty four ce.nts for each let ter wveighing less than half an ounce, will be reduced to at least half that amount. This, however, wvill probably require the~ joint action of the United States Congres.--Phladel phia Press. MIr.1rA nY ARHuvs.-Tie plast case o'f arrest under General Grant's order dircting the military to act. where the civil authorities fail to do so, is reported by the Atlanta papers. Mr. ,James M.

The capital stock of Adams Express Company is $10,000,000 ; of which $2,000,000 is owned in Hartford, where at sold, on Friday, for $1.25 per share. The Now York evening papers of Tuesday, published dispatches from London and Paris, up to noon of that day, and we had theirin laid before us what The Paris Moniteur of that day said. It seems almost miraculous. In 1842 Professor Morse announced to the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States "that a telegraph communication on his plan might with certainty be established across the At lantic." The professor has lived to see the prediction of a quarter of a century ago realized. The Emperor of Austria sent his 300 horses and 150 carriages to Ofen for safety. Ile could open a first class livery stable if things go much harder with him. "Do you know who I am V asked an officer of a fellow whom he had by the collar. "Not exactly, sir," the follow replied ; "but I think you must be the nalignant chi>larer. The following notice recently ap peared on the west end of a meet ing-house : "Anybody sticking bills on this church, will be prosecuted ae cording to law or any other nuisance." The total receipts of cotton since September 1, 1865, has reached 2, 009,700 bales, and since the close of the war, 2,428,300. The total ex ports from the United States since September 1, 1865, has been 1,500,000 bales, and the stock on hand about 320,000 bales. AUCTION! L A D IE 8' F A I It.
