Packages of goods of any kind not weighing more than four pounds, can now be sent at mail rates. This enables parties to send packages of gold through the mail at much less rates than by ex press. For instance ; A package con taining $1,000 in gold, weighing some thing less than four pounds, is taken by mail for, $3 75, while the express charges on the same amount would be 812 50 a saving of just 88 75. Under this law it is said that more gold goes through the mail bags than as freight, the saving by the former mode being so great. Insurance on small sums can be effected at the same rates as on others, so that the security it equal ; and this new method of shipping has had such an ef fect ou the prices of exchange, that bills are now sold for . three-quarters of one per cent., where one and a quarter would otherwise be charged.

The great lakes and the Father of Waters, the mighty Mississippi, are now united, and there now exists an uninterrupted water communication and iuternal navi gation of almost 6,000 miles in length, through the very heart of the continent, from Quebec, on the Gulf of St. Law rence, through the great lakes, to Chica go, the Queen city, on Lake Michigan, the:ce to the Mississippi river, down that mighty river to St. Louis, and on to New Orleans to tbe Gulf of Mexico. Now a vessel may pass right through the center of tbe garden spot of the world, the Mississippi Valley, and touch on any point of the ehores of the Gulf of Mexico or the Carribean Sea. without once enter ing the Atlantic. . In the language of the San Francisco Chronicle. "She may even pass through the heart, of South America without pausing, proceeding up the Orinoco through the Casiquari ioto the Amazon, and tbence reach the most secret recesses of the great ' empire of Brazil and of Peru aod Bolivia. The tributaries of the Amazon and the La- Plata approach so near each other that in the future there can be uninterrupted communication through American seas from Quebec to Buenos Ayres. The Mississippi and Lake Michigan have long been connected by a canal extending irotii the mouth of Chicago river on the former, to Bridgeport, thence by the Illinois and Michigan State Canal to La Salle. These canals have been fed by streams flowing both into the lake and the great river, and they required a scries of locks. Bat for a couple of years past the bottom of thecanals have been dredged and I'luMed oc each iide the divide, sep arating the Mississippi from the great lakes, till at last it has been deepened so a. to allow th "' waters ot Lake Michigan to tiow in nn uninterrupted stream to the Mississippi. This will connect all the great cities of the valleys of the Missis sippi and the St. Lawrence in a grand commercial union. The work of re moving he locks was to be completed by .July 4tlv, thus fitly comtnemoratiot; that day by one of the grandest of peaee triumphs." Dkatii of Capt. Wm. Dierd"kff. Capt.

We have nothing to expect from, human aid; for man has abandoned us. Why should we dissemble ? It is better I should tell you the Kings aud Governments, forget ting their promises, leave us to our fate. They have addressed us in fine phrases. J hey sent us the warmest congratulations on day of our jubilee j but they are far from taking steps in support of their messages. We cannot hope for help from any quarter. King Victor Emanuel will be here iu a few days, and will be attended by the Ministers of the Catholic States. We have done all that was in our power, but our efforts have f-iiled. All is lost. You will tell me, perhaps. t hat we have still hope in France ; but France can do nothing. She is going through a frightful cris;s, which may be succeeded by others yet more dreadful.

From the Dallas Republican of July ZZd I A young child of Mr. David hunter, living three miles wet of Dallas, met with a painlul accident one day last week, which resulted in death to the little suf ferer. It crawled up stairs, and in me andering around where the boards were loose, it fell through and struck on the stove ; a kettle of hot water was upset and its contents thrown upon the child. The effects of the fall, together with those of the water, ended its life in a few hours. The parents were not at home at the time of the accident. -.
