The Court ot Inquiry
appointed by the Secretary of the Navy
to try Commander Alexander A.
Semmes, of the United States steamer
of war Alaska, on the charge of inca
pacity and cruelty to crew, preferred
against him by Surgeon Bradley, met
yesterday with citified door's at the
Brooklyn Navy-yard.
It appears that counter charges have
been preferred by the captain against
Surgeon Bradley for not being on board
the ship upon the expiration of his
leave ot absence. The surgeon was yes
terday suspended from duty. The ail.
cers of the Alaska will be detained as
witnesses. It is also understood that
W. B. Brown, captain of the marines,
has been suspended for disrespect to
Capt. Semmes. It is reported that the
Alaska is going outer commission.

On the subject of the history and mys

etittorially assuming that his return is
the result oi arrangoineuts made by the
Department ot State, suggests that
there should be no longer any
official concealments; but that Beare
tary Fish should permit all Mots relating
to Tweed's arrest to be made public. It
considers that the request wee proper,
and its being granted Is an occasion for
congratulations. The Herald also dis
cusses the subject of an extradition
treaty with Spain, and the worthless
ness or the existing treaty with Great
Britain, and expresses the hope that be
fore Mr. Fish retires from ciliee he will
crown his career with efficient extratil.

net through which the wonderful com
merce of this section passes to the sea
board. On the witbdrawal of the fast
mall tho loss was felt by the small as
well as the large operator, and to learn of ,
the extent thereof it le only necessary
to come in contact with the many, when
almost invariably their expreaslon is
that a great advantage has been lost to
them. It is believed that a loud protest
would have gone out upon its with
drawal had it not been believed that the
&Won of Congress made such a course
an imperative neceseity.
"The fast mall enouLd be reetered for
the following reasons:
"1. The quickest possible transmis
sion ot mail matter is deeired by all
alike.
"2. It is of the greatest importance to
the business man, saving money that
must be expended in telegraphing, if
the present slow toratem remelt's.
"3. The ilelay is telt not only in the
large cities, but in every town and
eounty seat throughout the State, as all
smaller railway lines arrange their time
oards so as to conuect with the lastest
trains on the truuk lines; and in this
way twenty-tour hours is frequently
gained tor delivery of matter at import
ant towns and oities located on roes
lines. Also is tile postal-car system
desired, as matter distributed in
transit is not subjected to
delays incident to dietribution at D. P.
oilices. For instauce, the postal oar
arriving bere at 5. A. M. would britig
mails from Pittsburg, Philadelphia and
New York and trout the following towns
and cities in blot Steubenville, Zanes
ville, Newark, Mt. Veruon, Coshocton, ,
Cad Columbus, Xenia, London and a
hundred emaller places. In this wall
there would be at least Ilye buttered
letters ler the Ohio & Miseissippi Road
aloue, all of which would be delayed
twenty-four hours- if not distributed
while on the cars. The same is true of
mail matter belonging on the Kentucky
Ceutral Road, Indianapolis. Cincinnati
& Lafayette and all lines out of this city.
A letter now put into the New
York office On Monday afternoon at
5 o'clock, leaves on the Paeitio express
at 8 o'clock. It runs through to Pitts
burg and is there held until Wednesday
morning at 1:50 A..M., for there is no
mail ou the train that leaves Pitteburg
for this city at an early hour. It is due
in this oity on train No. 0, which
should arrive here at 2:50; it
takes twenty miuutes to bring
the mall to the Post-ofilce, and,1
a few minutes more for the distribution.
It the train is on time, the letter will be
in the box of the man for whom it is des
tined at a littie after 8:30 o'clock. But
the bauks close at 3, and if the train
bappened to be delayed, as is frequently
the case, it may be 3 o'clock beiore tlie
letter is delivered, and of course the
business man does not receive it until.
the next morningthe third day cut irom
geW York.
"This levery slow work as compared
with that which waif done before the fast
mail service was interrupted. Under
that service letters were delivered wlth
a promptness turd diepatoh that was ex.
ceedingly gratirylug to tile business men
