Postnutcr General's eport-spte.i The whole number of Post Offices, in the United States at the close , of the lastroffiefal year, ending June 30, 1853, was 23,320 Of this number 255 are of the highest class, the Postmasters of which are appointed by thePresi dent. -'" ' i 'i At the present date, Pec; 1, 1853, the total nnmber of Post Offices is 22,688. Daring the past year, commencing July 1, 1852, 1,898 Post Offices were established: 49 were discontinued; and thece 9T4.eip$n-ji4?.to;'; office durimrsid eftf?fM i aki:i 1 a r :,j o qs r newly established offices aforesaid, 3,850 upon resignation, 225 on death, 182 by change of site, 91 where the Postmasters had moved away, and 2,321 on the removal of prior incumbents; being 8,567 Postmasters appointed during the year ending June 30, 1S53. At the close of the fiscal year, ending on the 30th June last, there were in operation within the United States 6,692 mail routes. Their aggregate length was 217,743 miles, aud 2,583 contractors were employed thereon. The annual transportation of the mails on those routes was 01,892,542 miles. and tlie annual cost thereof, $4,495,968, being about seven cents two mills per mile. Of these, 01, 892,542 miles of annual transportation, 12,9SG, 705 miles are required to be performed on rail, roads, at a cost of $1,601,321. bein? about twelve cents three mills per mile; 6,685,005 miles in steamboats, at a cost of $632,368, be itir about nine cents four mills per mile; 21,330, 326 miles in coaches, at a cost of $1,206,958, being about five cents eix mills per mile; and 20,890,440 in modes not specified, at a cost of $1,055,313, being about live cents per mile. The expenditure of the Depart nieut during the last fiscal year were $7,982,758. Tlie gross revenue from all sources was $5,940,724. It appears from tho foregoing statement that the gross revenue of the year, ending June 30, 1853, fall short of the expenditures by the sum of $2,042,031. $1,571,000 of this deficiency is supplied by the balance on the Auditor's books on July 1, 1852, and by the appropriations to supply de ficienccs, amounting to upward of $1,000,000, leaving $546,000 to be provided by Congress for the service of the year ending June 30, 1853. The Oregon Pra. This pea. which is the finest (it- is now be lieved) ever discovered, grows on a plant from four to six feet high, and in pods three or lour inches long, in clusters from four to ten in a bunch. The pea is ver- small, a little under the size of the lady or sugar pea, of a light green colour when ripe. The following recom mendations are considered sufficient. They are considered by alt that have tested them a great luxury for the table. Stock are fonder of tlicnT than of corn. They will fatten hogs better than corn, and faster. They bear very full, and keep bearing till frost. Although so small there are so many in a bunch they can be gathered as fast as other peas. We have seen them grow last year, dry as it was, on old land, among corn, head high, and two in a hill as large round as a hogshead. Their great utility is the hay for stock, which we think will yield as much again as any thing else in the shape of hay. They .grow finely among corn, but yield much more by themselves. They are proved to grow well broadcast, sown either fall or spring; for they will lie on the ground all the winter, aud come up in the spring. Hence, hogs can feed on them all the time. The hay is the best ever used by us for horses, cattle, sheep, or any thing else that eats hay. The leaves do uot fall off by cutting and saving the hay, and will remain on the stalks till frost. Last year there were a very few grown in tUo United States. We heartily recommend them to the planters every where, especially in those coun ties where grass docs not grow to perfection, as it is the case in gaudy soil. This pea will grow on any soil we have, and made a good crop last year in this couutry, (t. c, Tishamin go, Mississippi,) dry as it was. They are in great demand wherever known. We know these are days of humbug, but there is none here. Mr Zaehariah Fulmore and Ml John McCol lum of Robeson county, inform us that they have cultivated the above pea, and find it every thing recommended. We learn that Pope & Pitman of Lumberton, and S. J. Hinsdale of this place, have the seed for sale. Jexnv Lixi,-A lady formerly of Charles ton, now resident in Dresden, writes to her friends here, under date of September 22 : "Jenny Lind, whom I believe I have already mentioned as living opposite to us, has a little son ; she nurses him herself.

The following is a description by a Prussian officer, of the Circassian cavalry, who are about to take a part in the present conflict. He says: ' The Circassian cavalry wear a pointed steel helmet with a long horse-tail pendent frora.lt..' A net of steel work hangs down from the lowest part of tho helmet, protects the front and nape of the neck, and is looped together nnder the chin, underneath a short red - vest cut in tho Polish fashion. He is clad in a species of coat of mail, consisting of small rings of steel inter vened. His arras, from the wrist to the lbow, and his Icq, from the foot of the shin bone to the knee, are guarded by thin plates of steel. He also wears close pantaloons and laced boots. wa pofxrnard, t !... ! - i - , tt ... are biuck iuio ins giraie, lie uas a learner strap with a noose, like ft Mexican lasso, hang ing at his side, which he throws with great dexterit', over the head of the enemy.

They form the choicest body of cavalry in the Turkish ser vice, and 1 have watched them when charging, attack their opponents with a sabre in each hand, managing the reins with their mouth; they will spring out of their saddles, take aim and fire from behind their horses, then jump into their saddles again, wheel round and reload their gun as they retreat in full career. They are perfect madmen in the attack, and few troops could withstand the utter recklessness of danger the' evince. I.vi liKXT of ttjE Mkthodist CnuRCH PnorKK. ty Questiox. One of the most interesting cir cumstances connected with the proceedings of the Missionary Anniversary at Wesley Chapel last night, was the address of Pev. E. W. Schon, corresponding Secretary to the Missionary So ciety of the Church South who announced the receipt of intelligence from the compromise Ad justment Committee in rsew ork, presided over by Hon, Judge McLean, that when the final decision was announced, the Honorable Chairman overcome with emotion while tears came to every eye, called all to solemn prayer which was united in by every heart. Every eye there glistened with joy, hands clenched hands, and pledges and protestations were then given, that friendship and union of hearts in the same divine mission for the salvation of man and the glory of God should ever characterise both North and South, This reconciliation given universal gratification. Cin. Gaz. Gtk. Meetings have been held, and proposed, in the town of Lynchburg, Va., and the counties of Franklin, Campbell, Pittsylvania and Ded ford preparatory to a convention at Henry courthouse, on Dec. 12th, to take into consider-, ation the subject of building a railway from Lynchburg to the Xorth Carolina line near Leaksvillc. The object is to secure the tobacco trade of the region above named to Lynchburg, and probably a view to the Leaksville coal is not lost sight of in a calculation of the benefits of the contemplated improvement. Grcensborv Patriot, We learn that Mr F. 15. Carpenter, of Xew York, has been commissioned by some gentlemen ofN. Hampshire to execute a full-lenerth por trait of President Pierce, who has consented to sit for that purpose. Air Carpenter visited our city about a year since, when he executed a portrait of ex-Presb-dent Fillmore, which is pronounced to be a piece of peculiar merit. Washington Union. A letter writer, who sends jottings forth from Cincinnati, tells the following stpry as one that actually occurrrd iu that city : " A very amusing incident occurred on Wal nut street the other day, illustrative of the na tural instinct of one sheep to follow another, A small drove was coming up the (street, and when they arrived opposite the Gibson House the foremost one made a rush to go into an alley but a man suddenly coming out, somewhat frigntencd the sheep and it deviating slightly from the true course, darted into a fancy lamp store, followed by the whole flock. The crowd eager to witness the sport, instantly blockaded the door, so that there was no mode of egress for the unceremonious visitors, and as said lamp store was too contracted to suit their peculiar I notions, and wishing to regain their liberty as sjieedilv as possible, they saw no otlier means; of escape but through the wiudow.
