I will venter *. however, to assort that a festival to Cupidity would receive a good deal more attention in Xow York at least, than this one to Cupid. The only event that at all served to marie the day .hors, was its celebration by the “shrieking sisterhood's" so -i.ey, | Sorosis. This evidence of the Society's io.itinned existence was a genuine sur prise to your correspondent, as it doubtless will be to many of your ren-lcn; but the fact remains that it I still lives, presumably as ready as ever to lly to it i arms ngiinst tho "tyrant | man,” whenever If: a ter un gallantly I neglect <5 to oiler his aov i for them to fly I In. Sorosis was born in February li, 185(, so that the meeting above J mentioned was ' the celebration [cl its twentieth birthday. And I now that it has attained a marriageable age, why can t some self-sacrificin'/ Mormon marry the whole concern and transplant it to the blooming shores of the Great Salt Like? Such an act of benevolence is one which New York could never rt p ,y or forget. About the .ait trouble which one) wool 1 expect to arise in a country which lias ha I nearly two decades of paper currency, is a redundancy of spe cie, but just that seems now to loom up before us. The Nevada mines, under the impulse of new discoveries and im proved pin-esses are turning out such quantities of silver as threaten to great ly reduce the value of the metal. In consequence of this, our mine owning senators, doubtless alarmed lest I heir scanty earnings should be thereby cut down to a million or two a day now propo e to change our standard from j gold to silver,a id debase the silver dob! lar to the le -el of the greenback.

LOUISVILLE; JEFFERSON COUNTY. ft A., MARCH 2,187 U, ■cupied. For it is not to ba gainsaid that despito Mr. Greeley’s grcathess as a philanthropist and philosopher, the former managemeut of tho Trjbme t'cpm a journalistic point of view was nqt equal to the present one. The Tribute of to-day is the. finest specimen of that one great result of the Liberal Move ment, independent journalism. Jutj'ol llics a3 in all the. great questions of the day, it occupies the true position of a great,metropolitan newspaper; neither standing Aloof from the ■ eohtest, nor held in the leash by either side, but af- I ter grasping and defluing the merits of a case with unusual clearness, dealing its blows iu behalf of justice and public policy, iu nsiiiqbavv ?ftu3s\h<ai,nSt.y be • fo.sn-’x news- is usually cmapMfc and 'above afl, Reliable. Its-’ foreigb correspondence, is the best we have, while its musical, dramatic, and art critiques are by common consent,'stan dard. The Trif)wU's‘\ one. 'a,nd policy are well-nigh unique in this country. They evince a dignity, a moderation, a con sistency, and a straightforwardness which are in strong contrast to the in sincere, harum-scarum style of journal ism which obtains too generally at this day. in nothing are those qualities more, clearly illustrate 1 than in the policy of the paper towards its detractors. I presume that no first-class journal was over subjected to more persistent systematic, outrageous, and irritating attacks* than is Tie Tr.huxie Tram cer tain of jis contemporaries. No piud is too black for them to throw, no charges top sidy or too improbable, for them to t-jiteTaf? <m nmiiteam. Jlad tho Tribune justified the expectation of its enemies, by noticing these attacks, it would have entered upon an cudless task with the 1 didicultyor constantly meeting charges i so utterly silly that refuting them would be in itself redioulous. But i ito this j t 'ap-the..e4itor of The 4'ti'iUjut decline 1. 1 to fall, and now. afxCtCjvJrfitiw of frantic endeavor to provoke soine deviation train the cutting silence m.iin'oire t by tti' > paper, its opponents now find Iheiu selves in a pitafily awkward’ position. To continue flic, one-side l light in the expectation of being recognize 1 as ie ligercnts looks hopeless. and to alum" doa a field, where they are having their own way unmolested,, would expose them to even greater ridicule. It Us an unpleasant, but deserve 1 doom a-., the on i of which is not yet; but no tenni- j nation of it can a feet the advantage I which the Tribmv has glaired throngs I the wisdom of a Chief, who with neither I gray hairs nor t ie col l bio id of age to I teach him f irbearaucc, lias rea l a les j son in. firmness, temporanee, an 1 con | troversiul tactics to the whole piofes j sion. The substantial proof of this is found ! in the growing circulation of the paper, j which continues to increase ia the teeth :of slander. Tho weekly edition espec ially, is making itself more and more strongly felt among tire thinking class throughout the States,-with a corres pondingly greater influence upon public opinion. Happily this influence!is a /safe one. Like everything else finite the. Thbhna jii ay err, but at worbt, its ‘ errors are not on tlic-sidc of dishonesty and corruption, while the great mass its teaching is of a character to be welcom ed in every American homo. Crime seems to run in streaks. One offense of any . peculiar character is pretty sure to he shortly followed by others of a similar description. For a good while Xe-v York lias enjoyed, a re spite from Post Office stealing, until some ten days since, when a young Pole employed as a letter-carrier was I found to have been eugaged for .some j time in rifling letters, over a thousand 1 of which lie had opened and relieved of their contents if in money, but if in checks or money-orders which he could not use, destroying them entirely. Now, another young man whose'Held of operations was the registered mail be-; tween this cit.v and a neighboring conn- j ty, lias come to similar grief, and it is j a safe prediction that the next few | weeks will remit in bringing more cases ! to light.

Three years ago Miss Linsee was vis iting a friend,.a young girl of about her own age, at her home on the Hudson. It was a large, rambling, country j house, with an unusual number of sleep ing rooms, aud*Jennie,, oa .her .arrival, was the only guest, so that oureaeh si le of hdr the rooms was u locciipied. Tire evening she arrived her friend i insisted on her going to bv 1 early, say. ing that slie must be very weary, but Jennie in listed that slio was iiiot : the 1. and absolutely refused to po to be 1.
