of the Post Offices in the Union. We believe
that in connexion with Radical reduction o
Postage, the increase of correspondence woulG
be so great that the Revenue of the Department
would soon equal the present amount. But this
is not all Wherever there is population to sup.
port Country store, the merchant will prefer to
keep Post Office and have his letters and pa

or ten miles for them if he Is Obliged to keep
the Post Office for nothing. five were selling
goods in Country town or village, we would like
well to keep the Post Office, even if for nothing
and have every man in town take newspaper
and receive letters.
AS to the Franking Privilege, it will be worth
very little if the Rates of Postage are reduced to
fair standard. How then, could it induce those
to keep Post Offices who would otherwise be re-

increase it. Those who paid for their newspapers
in advance would pay Postage and all, and get
them cheaper than now; those who are going to
pay from July to eternity would get along much
as at present. In the end, newspapers would be
pretty generally paid for in advance, postpaid
when mailed, and obtained cheaper than now
But how this is to effect Postmasters' compensa-
ton is not clear. Let them be paid for the work
they do-say so much for every hundred letters
they deliver, and SO much for every thousand pa
pers So also for mailing. This would ensure
better returns of the business of each Post Office
than have yet been obtained The rule of pay

end to the appointment of Political Postmasters,
or idlers living out the profits of the Office while
others do the work for small portion of the pro.
ceeds. The right man would take the Office at
small per centage; but it would be hardly
temptation to any one else-As to Postmasters'
desiring as few Newspapers to deliver possible,
we will take our share of that risk. Give us Post

College on Saturday evening. The Introductory
lecture is free. DR.. Pattison designs to avoid the
dry professional details that make them uninte-
resting save to medical men, and give them a
more popular turn so as to interest both sexes.
The plan he proposes is excellent, and there can
be no subject more fraught with Instruction. or of
which we are more ignorant than these same bo-
dies of ours. Professional knowledge is for pro-
fessional men; but general knowledge of the
structure of the human lrame-the nice relation of
each part to the other and to the whole, and the
harmonious working of the entire machine is for
all.

IHE HISTORY OF THE fuRITASs OR PROTESTANT NON

WEED corrected and enlarged with additional Notes,
by j. o. CnouLrs, NJ. a. With nne Portraits on
steel.
This important work will be heartily and uni
versally welcomed, in its present cheap and ac-
cessible form. 1t possesses the deepest interest
and value for all Protestant religious denomina-
tons. The original work has been long regarded
as one of standard value, and its worth for
American readers has been very largely increased
by the copious and careful notes of the American
Editor 1t is to be published by the Mcssrs. Har-
per in eight successive numbers, of which the first
has appeared, at twenty-five cents each The
actors in the great religious struggle Of which it
gives the history were among the most remarEa-
bic men who have ever lived and their lives and
principles, as drawn in this history, possess a
deep and peculiar interest. The work is certainly
one of the best, and must, VIC are sure prove one
of the most popular of its class recently issued
