seems determined to visit every hamlet beyond the
monn!ain'' where he has friends enough pen card
Of invitation and barbecue hogand he would I, oac,

Renee had not taught him TO play adro and in
not require the talents of Table as the quail.
hcstinn Of President Of the u. Staes-nor will any
man add value to his preensions by setting them forth
IN person The Louisville Advertiser Of the 9th uIf
gives the following items of the hneran, orator:
+" Mr Clay partoos Of public dinner in the woods q
short distance north of Shelbyvle, Saturday last We
UNDERSTAND ne was compinened in a toast and made
| short speech against the present administration.
Mr. Clay Is to par,ake Of public dinner to-day 10
our Citizens have been generally invited"
THE PosT-OFFICE
The Coai,ioniss seizng upon every circumstance
be 1t ever 40 minute. which they can peryert into q
cause Of Glamour Does a Post Master decline to re-
mbuese the over-charge OF letter unless il be opened
in his presence'-h is iinme atey cried up as an "Ex-
tortion of the Post-ofice Department" The Post.
Othce pursues the words of the lao sclf-The sans
Instruction has been given by his Predecessors in Office
1t is all in vain Mr. Barry TO he abused for ex.
tor'ion, in order that siur may be upon the pre-
sent administraion.-Mr. Bauy's letter of the 18th
June to merchant in N. York. shews the true merits
OF this ransaction-and the letter of Mr. Skinner the
r. H. oil Baltimore, clears away every insinuation,
which is mad about the postage on printed Sheets
IL ve'png on in one chorus of abuses and the outcry
Will go on until some game started the chase
III the -Ofhcs law he oppressive. the blame ought
not to attach to the Post Office but to the law; Congress
may repeal but Mr. Barry cannot suspend 1.-THE
rule in this Richmond Pos-Ofce has been, TO mark a
letter double, which appears be such but to make no
corrections in the postage unless the letter be opened
in the Office We hnotc the practice is too common Of
UNDERWRITING the postage. where the letter contains
bank-note: and this Post Office nakes il a rule and a
very proper rule, TO i, right
The y. Y. D. Advertiser redicues this attention 10
small matters, and says it is indicative of small
minds but Mr. Barry has anticipated and answered
the observations:
each case may little matter, scarcely worthy
oil regard but should he remembered that the whole
feYenuc OF the Department is made ur of these little
items, and IL !. their lbnao ,hat oives Ifs orJ

REMOVALS
The Natchez Statesman airms that thirds Of the
State Offices in the hands Of the Coaiitonists aur
ell the ncumbents of the Fedora! Offices with the en-
eeption OF the District Judge appointed by Mr. Monroe
are Of similar school 1t asks, whether this be the
prescription, about which much cutlery has been
heard.
The Citizens of Maryland, Delaware, Maine, &C
where so many of the friends OF Jackson have been
swept Rom State Offices, ask whether this be pro-
scrption.
Twenty eight only out of 400 Clerks In Washington
have been removed by the preent administra,ion-nI
OF them probably for good Where is that ire
mendous prescription about which so much Glamour has
