Sir: In obedi'Micc lo a res'ihilion of the Senate of the United Slates, adopted at their last session, retpiiring ihe Postmas ter (lenei-al to t'eporl to the “senate, at the present session, the most practicable post route from New' Orleans to \\’ashing- toii City,” I have the honor tf) state, that the route on which the mail has been lrans|)orted, for several years past, from this City to New Orleans, is by the w'ay of I'tedericksburg and Abing«hjn, in \’ir- ginia ; Knox\ ille and McMinville, in Ten nessee ; Huntsville, Uush\ille, and I'ike- ville, in .Alabama; Columbus. .Iacks(;n, I'ort fiiJ)son, W'ushington, Nalche/., and Woothille, in Mississippi; thence, l)v St. I'rancisvillp and Baton Rouge, lo New-' Orleans. This i-oute is estimated to be 1,.380 miles, and retjuired a travel of 21 days, . 'I'he military road, as it is called, from Columbus,in Mississippi,to .Madisoiivillo, in Louisiana, is .on nearly a direct line I’oni the f(jrnier t(j New Orleans, atuJ much nearer than the road by the way of W'ashington and Natchez.

A part (.f t!ie Alabama and Miss issippi mail, and the mail Iroiri the sotifh lo Now Orleans, is iranspurted on t’lis route. But, in the winter and spring sea son's of the year, the numerou:; streams ot w aler over w hich there are neither bridg es nor ferries, present insurmountable obstacles to the regular and rapid Irans- 1 'ssion of tlie mail on this route. • (Tn a direct line from Vv'ashington, to New Orleans, the distanci; is 9(30 miles, i'his line passes near Warrenton Char- lottv ille, Lexington, Big Lick, (irayson Coui t House, in \'irginia ; Ashville, in North Carolina ; thence, through the In dian C.ountry byCahawba and St. Sle- plu'iis, in Alabama, to 1‘earlton, near Lake Borgne ; thence to New Orleans. 'I’he norlhwcstern ])art of North Caro lina, thror.gh w liich this line passes, is so mounlainoi;s as to render a dev iation to the south or north, in constructing a road, indispensal)le. A deviation lo the noi-th, so as to av(/id the mountains, will pass by or near I’otheringay, Wythe Court-House, Christiaifsburg, aiul Abingdon, in \'ir- 'rinia; Knoxville, in Tennessee ; thence, tiirough the 'I'etinessee Valley, by Ca- hawba, to New Orleans, on nearly a strait direction. 'I'his route is estimatc(i at 1,05'.) tniles, inchuling teti ])er cent, for the ' arialion from a straight line, from Wasiiington to Know ille; thence to New (>rleatis.

On tliis part of the route, the fri'iieral face of the couiitry is levtl, and the soil vv( 11 adapted to the formation of a solid road. Some iirfor- matioii has heen communicated to tiiis depart- iTient on this suhjret, hut it doos not coiiu- strictly within the scope of the rcsohitioi'i.

'I'he route on which tlie ni.Vd is now transp, r- t('d to New-Oi'K'Uiis, althougli more circuitous than_soine others, in the present condition of the roads, is the safest and liest. "I'liere are many oijstnictions 011 it, hut tiiey are less nu- nu rous than on any other, (ireater celerity and safety are given to the mail on this r(jute, tliiui could he j^'ivc 11 to it on any other, to Vcvv-Or- leans, and it passes tiirou;;-h, and supph.i luyiiy im|)ortant towns and villages, and tliicklv set- th d parts of the eouutry.

T!p dciilornhlf qfevfs of tn>jArS'':Ho’is oh- scrrdncca.—X have been grii'vcd Mtict* I came back from Meliphilhi, by the state of a beautil’td and amiabh; girl, which has arisen from a misunderstood spirit oi de- vot'ron. liefore I went away she was guy atul cheerfui, the delight of hei- father’s house. Her music and her poetry, and her rcadiiig uloud while (Others worked, formed the charm of her home. But her mother, though a clever woman, is a big ot ; and Maria’s mind, of a high and lof ty nature, is peculiarly susceptible of re ligious impressions. Lnder these, the tender conscienced girl, to punish her self for an attachment not favored by her house, which she still fell, though at her parent’s-bidding she had given up its oli- ject, resolved lo go lor ten days to a I.nan \k Kxt'mw. There, under the guidance of an old priest, the young creatures wno retired thus, are kept pruyinij night and day, with so little food and sleep, that their bodies and minds alike become weaketied. All the* intervals belw('en thi* masses, which are of the most laborious chants, are passed in silence ; no voice is heard a!)ove a whisper, and the light o! heaven is scarcely admilled. A young married woman, who went in w ith Mai ia, came out even gayer than she entered ; doubtless her heart had ri'sted on her husband and her home. But what wa in occupy the thoughts and alVections of the n'irl w hose liest fee'intrs were to be crushed.^ Could she harbor th.ere “ .1 wish but death, a passion but despair.'’’ and she has returned, as it were, to earth —on iti, but not of it. I’he signt of friends throws her into fits of hysterical vveepitig, an I, only pivjstrate befon' the altar, iviid repeating the masses of hei house of wo, does she seem soothed o; calmed. Such arc ihe-etTecls of the house of exercise. _1 might have though' th^t my young friend’s |>cculiar disposition a- lone, had caused this ; but I know a you'Ti who was, I am told, once all that ])ai-eiit could'vvish—accomplished and enlighlt'n- ed, and possessed of honor and spirit. He is r.)\v little better than a drivcdlinir ideot. He went itilo a house of exercise a man—he came out of it w hat he is. (^h ! if 1 had power or innucnce here, I would jiut down these inischievous cstab- lishmetits. Even w hen they do not cause, as in this iiislaticf, a derangement of tlu* intcdlect, they arc nurseries of bigotry and fanaticism. I'o have been in one, is a soiii t e of vanity, lo cotiform lo the senti- nients inculcated there, a point of con- u:lenc(‘; and as it is easier to be a bigot t:ian a^-irtu(-us tnan, great laxity of con duct is permitted, so t!u‘ spirit is bent to maintain the chtircii,and lo persecute, or at least keep down thost' who are not of it.—Mrn.
