Tho morning mails for New York were sent from here as usual by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. The delay caused by the actual transfer at Philadelphia is not considered so serious as the delay arising from tho fact that, an hour before arriving there, two clerks are compelled to begin tying up tho mails; and an other hour after leaving is spent in untying. This delay will prove too much of an obstacle to permit a con tinuance of the mails over this route. FOREION, fhench assembly -the committee of thibty. Special to the Times by H. k A. Line.)
