Potmiier General’* Report.
The fact is pi eet forth, that from and
after the lat of July next, the mail* are to be con
veyed between New Orleans and Washington in 3£
days.
The conveyance of the latter mails overland be-
I ween the Mississippi and San Francieoo, the De
partment reports the conclusive and triumphant
success of ue route. The Tehuantepec route ser
vice has ben commenced under sue a auspices as
it is believed, promises complete success. The
UtahDoote has been so improved teat trips through
between St. Joseph and P.acervilie are performed
once a week in 3o days. Routes have been put in
operation from Neosho, Missouri, to Albuquerque,
N. M and troin Independence, Mo.,by Albuquerque
to Stockton, California, both monthly.
The Postmaster General says that the expenses
of the Department, over and above it* resources,
have regalarly increased ever since tfca reduction
of postages. It would, however be obviously er
roneous to suppose that this charge upon the Trea
sury is to proin a ratio proportionate to what
it Las been for the last few years. Our postal oys
tern ! .§ now extended over the whole country, from
one to tio other. There can be bat little
further expense resulting from overiand connection
with C&lirornia ujg tc© orxjcr Pacific elates and
Teriltories. Except one other route, commonly
ca.i-.U th f Northern r ute, from S'. Paul, in Minna
sotta, to Heartie. in Washington Territory, no other
is now thought of and being likely to b*rc>me ne
cessary. Tne estimate ‘or the transportation of the
mane tor the next fiscal year 1859—*60, when com
pleted, over atiC above the anticipated revenues,
may,there! ire, he regarded as the maximum which
will probably be requited for some time to come.
The p.ieimaster General propoeee, in lieu of the
franking privi ege now allowed by law to member*
of Congro4S, the Secretary of the Senate, and the
C.ark of the House of Representatives, or such
otuer officers as .ay be designated for the porpoeo,

and the hue from New Orleans to Vera Crux, it is
apparent that the postages to be derived tberetrom
would detray but a trifling portion of the expen?es
of th same.* The Postmaster General regards it a*

be continued.
Report of the Seeretnry of the Navy.
The Secretary says that since bis last annual Re
port, the naval foroes have been required in re
mricting unlawful expeditions against Nicaragua,
resisting the exercise of the right of i*eaich by
British cruist-rs in the neighborhood of Cuba, and
enforcing demands for redress for inaulni to our flag
and for it juries to our oitizens by the government
of Paraguay. After explaining this subject, the
Bocrefaiy says it became necessary to charter a
number of vessels. As these vessels would
be useful, he recommends their purchase. The
sum required for six of these steamers would be
$214,000, of which $74,800 must be paid for the use
of them tor a period ot six months, and a proper
tiouate sum for a longer time, if no purchas ■* be
made. The num required tor the three side-wheel
etfauibrs would bo $286,000, of wb-ob, if they be
not purchased, the tain of $69,000 will be required
for the same peri and The recent addition of a con
siderable number of steam vessels to the Navy will
necersartiy r p qure hu increased demand for the
eervices ot officers at *<ca. while the greater activity
which now prevails in it, and is likely hereafter to
prevail, wi i still further mciease that dein&ud. To

Repert CsasMsiMer Indian Affairs.
The Commi-eiooer itates that the whole number
of Indians within our limits, is estimated at about
350 000 The whole number of tnoee and separate
band> is 175. with 14 of which we have treaty en
gag©meets. The camber of ratified treaties, since
the adepti >n of the constitution is 393, nearly all of
which contain provisions still in force. The quanti
ty of land acquired by these treaties is about 581,-
jC3 188 acres The entire ooet of fulfilling these
treaties, will be sl9 816 344 From a part of these
lands the Government received no pecuniary ad
vantages, because they were ceded to the respec
tive States, witkin whose limits they were situated.
From those sold, the Federal Treasury received not
only the whole of the expense incurred for the ac
qu’eit'on survey and sell, but a surplus of at least
$100,000,000.
The amount applicable for the fu-fidment of the
treaties, and other objects connected with the In
dian policy for the present fiscal year was $1,852,-
407, of wb’ch sum $204,652 was derived trom in
vestments of trust fundi. The whole amount of
tun* -1 * held on Indian account is $10,590,649, of
which $3 502,241 has b©en invested in stocks of va
rious Stat**© and the United States ; the remainder,
viz $7 088,407, is retained in the Treasury, and
the imerest thereon annually appropriated by Con
gress. The Commissioner thinks it worthy of con
sideration whether it wili not be advisable, when
the National Treaiury shall be in a condition to ad
mit of it, also to invest the above am unt of $7,-
088 407 iu like manner with the other Indian trust
lands.
The Commissioner points out three fatal enors
which have rnaiked our policy towards the Indian
from the very beginning, v z : Ist. Tneir removal
trom place to place, a- our population advances;
2d. lue of 100 great an ex’eor of tern
lory to be held by them in • oar.mon ; and, 3rd. The
allowance of large sums of money s aunuitie*. He
r* c* mm**nds that the tribes should be permanen’ly
1< cved upon reservations embracing not more than
us n* ewary for actual occupancy ; to divide the
iai and aiuoiig th*?m in severalty ; to require that they
i*nou and re.tie upon and cultivate the land thus
f got 1, to give tne •in lieu of money annuities,

Report of the Secretary of War.
Tne authorized strength of the army as posted is

-17,i98. These tr ops compose the whole numeric a

and rerntoriea of the entire confederacy, manning

the p**ts now garneoned, defending all our extend
ed fronlie’S, and protecting as fares possible the
different routes extending across the continent from
1 fie M.ouuiippi vailey to our poesessions on the
Pacific. The ab©olc© demands for men in the vs
iious p ‘Sis, stauons, 6lq , ai well as for what might
fie termed the ponce operations of the army, left
only 13 regimen * for actual service iu the field.—
And opju ibis small force numbering little over
eleven thousand rueu, dev*/lved tfie arduous
du y of prosecuting ail the Indian wars, which have
extended this year trom the Bri ish pus-ess o.*s and
tne Paciac to the border settlements ot Mexico ; as
well as crushing a rebellion in Utah, which from its
vindictive spirit and large numbers, threatened at
its outset to become, aid indeed was, very formida
ble. Jt may safely oe asserted that no army of the
came size ever belore performed, iu so short a space
01 time, marches and movements of such extent,
surmounting in their progress such formidable ob
sac e** No Gitaster has befallen the arm y through
out it* immense ramifications, aud tLe privations,
arii.-hips, toils and dangers to which it nas been
coutinrally subjected, have been borne without a
murmur. In . peaking of the war wi h the Indiana
on the Pacific, the Secretary says that a permanent
peace has been established by treaties entered into
with them, and the army hat already been distribu
ted where the presence of a force wa=*
greatly needed In alluding to the Navajos, he
says they probably numbei 3,000 mounted warriors,
an extremely formidable force ; but there shall be
no relaxation in prosecuting the war until the sava
ges are brought completely under the yoke. The
war in Tex tray be looked upon as just begun,
nn-i the prob V il’fies are u vi!i be one of fierceness,
and mt.j 6e 01 <unj*<derable duration. M cch appre

thing will be lost.
As to the Artilleiy school of practice at Fort Mon
roe, bo long an object desired among the military
men of the oountry, this, the Secretary say a, has
been established,aud bids fair to realize all the bene
firs to the service which its frieuda anticipated.
He calls attention to the necessity of providing
for the payment ot claims brought against the gov
ernment by different States and Territories lor ser
vices heretofore rendered by volunteer forces in the
suppression of Indian hostilities.
Tne Secretary says he has attempted as far as
possible to meet the just wishes of Congress in re
ducing the expenses, and the estimates ot the next
fiscal year aie led than the appropriations for the
lost by the sum ot $9,160/188. They are less than
the estimates laid before Congress at the last ses
sion by the sum * t $2,736 4uß. They amount in the
aggregate to SIB,UUU,O9O; aud ho entertains a
strong hope that tue expenditure may be still fur
ther reduced in the course of another year.
It affords him pleasure to say that notwithstand
ing the Indian warm Washington, New Mexico,
and Texas, all of which were unforeseen and unex
pected. stiff unless there shall be farther aud larger
demand for expenditures iu suppressing otuer
Indian hostilities, additional to those already in
curred in Washington, New Mexico and Texas,
there will be no necessity tor asking appropriations
iu the shape of & deficiency bill.

the same time last year.
Th© receipts of the week are about 1.000 bales short
of last week.
Oar last report closed upon an active market, with a
declining tendency. Good Middlings quoted at
cenu. The present week opened under this depressing
infi jence, and the prices current on Fr.day were j ceu;
lower with sa.es of only K 4 bales. Monday everything
was etaiaiant, no buyers nude their appearance ana
only 145 bales found purchasers Tuesday was quite
briaa in comparison with the preceding three days,
though owing to the difference between buyers and sed
ers transactions were limited to 1,138 bales, at a decline
of tdr *c A good demand also exis.ed on Tuesday, but
holders conceded to the prices offered by buyers reiuci
antiy, and were unwilling sellers. The sales footed 1,-
439 bales, and easier, though not qootahly lower, prices
ruled. The accounts by the Persia were looked or
every hour on Wednesday, and some of the buyers were
holding off to learn their tenor. A fair enquiry existed,
however, and 1,465 bales changed Lan b buyers con
tinned their demands for lower prices, and a dec.ine of
aoout fc. was established.
Tnere was a brisk demand on Thursday, and holders
more cheer.nl and confident the sa.es loojiag 901 bales.

CHARLESTON, Dec. 10. — Cotton —Good Middlings
at the close of our last report, stood at llsc. and Mid
dling Fair at llfrc. The transactions of Friday and Ba
i.urday were on a limited scale, and at prices irregularly
U&io. lower .ban the above quotatijns. ibe easier
state of the market induced operator* to again came for
ward, aud the market on Monday aud Tuepday was ac
tive aod the tran actions large, at prices establishing a
gene ai d*cl ne of Jc. from the highest point of last week;
Middling Fair bavin sold freely at life. We nesday
wan, a.so, *n active day , but, as the suck (which at no
ame during ’he wee. k was heavj ) had bee . considera
bly reduced by the operations of the iwo preceding days,
holders exh bued a slight degree of firmness, which w th
a further reduced stock yesterday to operate on, enabled
them to recover, at least, a portion, i not the whole of
the ic-cline iu the early part 01 the week. The advanced
rates, however, restricted operations to 1400 bales, at
extremes of lOAllfc. The receipts of the week UOl up
14,4 KS bales a.d the sales in the same time 14,098 ba.es.
We quote the market, oased on yesierday’s transactions,
Aim, with a very light stock at tne following figures:—
Low to strict Mi dlmg. Ui&liic.; Good Middling, llg;
aud Miudliuk Fair, lli3>li£c.
Ricc—Wo have again to report a very good demand
thioughout the week tor this article The transactions
have bien made at prices ranging from to (3fr the
bulk, however, having changed hand* at per
hundred for good and fair quality.
Corn —The receipts by railroad have beeu limited du
ring th pa it week to 525 bushels; but of this description
—Teunesseo mixed—we note sales from store of 1000
sacks at 78 cents, sack, included, which is a slight im
provement on previous rates.
Wheat —As we remarke 1 in last week’s review, the re
ceipts are so light tuat the article attracts no attention,
aud wc have; therefore, no quotations to offer.
Flour —Notwithstanding the receipts ot this article are
apparently large, aud in the absence of any very groat
export demand, it may seem strange tuat the stock, es
pecially of sacks, is reduced to a very low oint But
this will be readily explained, when we meution that a
great portion, if 01 the bulk of the receipts, is only iu
transit to other markets. As we have remarked above,
the stock of sacks is very low, aud sellers, in c use
qu* n~e, have been enabled to realize advanced rates ;
while barrels, of -hich the stock is ample, have remain
ed unchanged. We not'.* sales this wees of some 2000

Bacon- -The Bacon market continues excessively dull
and quiet, ai.d in the abs -nee of acy demand holders
have to yield to effect even retail sales. Prime Shoulders
can be purchased at $ cents, and Prime Sides at 10c.,
which is a stiade lower than last week's quotations
Sugars —A cargo of 200 bhds. of the new crop arrived
from New Orleans this week, aud also a cargo of 225
bhds from Attakspas. They were offered in lots from

GROVER <t BAKER’S
SEWING MACHINES.
REASONS why the GROVER A BAKER Machine
is universally preferred for amily sewing :
L It is more simple and easier xept in order than any
other Machine.
2d. It makes a seam which w.ii not rip or ravel,
though ev*ry third stitch is cut.
3d It sews from two ordinary spools, ana thus all
trouble of winding thread is avoided, while the same
machine can be adapted at pleasure, by a mere change oj
moot, to all varieties of work.
4th. The same machine runs silk, linen thread, and
common spool cotton with equa facility.
sth. The seam is as elastic as the most elastic fabric,
so that it is free from all liability to break in wash
ing. ironing, or otherwise.
6tb. The stitch made by this machine is more beauti
ful than any other made, either by hand or machine .
Merchants can secure the sales of these Machines in
their different locali iea, with profit to themselves and
their customers, by applying to the undersigned, owners
of the Right for Georgia
These Machines are always on exhibition at their Sales
Room, on Broad street. „ ,
