From 90 10 90, a man who has pro-
Perly regulated himself may be considered
as ia his prime Of life. lis malured
strength Of constitution renders him almost
lmperyious to the attacks Of disease, and
experience has given his judgement the
soundness Of almost infalliblity. His
mind Is resolule, firm and equal all his
functions are in the highest order he as.
sumes the mastery over business builds
up a competence on the foundation he has
laid in early manhood, and passes through
a period Of life attended by many gratiGca-
tons. Having gone a year or Two past
60, he arrives at a critical period in the
road Of existence; the river OF death flows
before him, and he remains at a stand.slilI.
But alhwart this river is a yiaducl called
The Turn of Life which if crossed safe
Iy, lead to the valley of 'Old Age, around
which the river winds, and then flows, be-
yond without boat or cause-way to effect
its passage. The bridge is, however, con-
sirucIed on fragile materials,and it depends
upon how it is trodden whether il bend or
break Gout, apoPlexy, and other bad
characters also are in the vicinity to way
lay the traveller, and thrust him from the
pass ; but let him gird up his loins and
provide himself with fitting staff and he
may trudge on in safety with perfect COM
posure. To quit metaphor, "the Turn of
Life" is a turn either into prolonged lille
or into the grave. The system and pow
ers having reached their utmost expansion
now beginning either to close like flowers
at sunset or break down at once One in
Judcious stimulant-a single fatal excite
ment, may force it beyond its strength,
while careful supply Of props, and the
withdrawal of all that tends to force plant
will sustain it in beauty and in vigor until
night has entirely set.

Am Idea.
ton.

While the subject of the modification oil
the post Office regulations, is exciting an
interest, and giving movement to the
masses which congress is bound to res
pect; we wish to throw out to our readers
occasionally, such ideas, views, and no.
lions, as may be useful or new.
Many changes are being spoken of, as
necessary, either for convenience or safety;
and as effecting benefcialy, the collection
and amount of revenue. 1t has been made
a question, whether the lowering of the
postage or letters, would result to the good,
pecuniarily, of the Department, and at the
same time, 10 the convenience of the Peo-
pIe' We hope that upon this point, Con-
greSs will display some of its wisdom -
In most governmental measures, the mean
is perhaps the true position.
Among the many projects and changes
which will probably be submitted to, and
acted upon, by Congress, we would like to
see this one appear.
It's our opinion that with the exception
of Newspapers, sent from the Office of
Publication, all matters passing through
the mails, should be prepaid. We 90 in
for Equality, and think no one entitled
either by dirine right, or superior abii,
ties, or splendid achievements, to the priv
ilege of the fraok.
We are not aware that this thing is new.
Indeed we think It's not. If is, we
claim the honor. 1t has always been our
opinion, that much money would be sa-
we'd to the Department, by passing law
for the prepayment Of all mail NATTER
And to the franking privilege we are de,
cdedly opposed. We think men who get
eight dollars per-day, can prepay their
constituents. We shall revert to this a.
gain.

How he got Out.
OBSERVER.
ny NIsI PRIUs:

Once upon time, in the early part OF
the spring, was driving along the road in
an an open Wagon; and overlook two
boys, from eleven to fifteen years of age ;
the elder of whom, was carrying some but
ter 1t was extremely muddy, and in
course, the walking miserable. In fact,
don't think | ever saw il much worse.
The boys asked me for ride, which
readily granted, and they clambered into
my carry'all. Thus, we logged along un-
til we came to, if possible, still muddicr
portion of the road, and here, at little
house along side, the boys told me they
lived, and requested me to stop.
| did so, and holding the butter for the
elder, he proceed to get upon terra frma.
The mother came out, and was prOluse in
her thanks for my kindness. During this
time, the youngest stood upon the top of
the waggon-body, looking at the mud
and pitrousIy asking, 'how wi ! get out
how will get Out'' and reaching his hands
towards his mother who was approaching,
for aid.
Just while he was in the very agony Of
suspense, as to his getting out, my horses
made a step or two forward, and he fell

letters,

In writing letters, people should be very
careful. Careful, in the first place what
'hey say, and in the mex, place, how they
say it. They should be careful also, that
they say just what they wish to, and no
more. No mistakes should be made in
spelling, nor in grammar.
AS general thing, unless you have par.
licular directions to the country, a letter
should be directed to the place, at which
the one you are answering, was nailed
A space should always be left at the mar
gin, for the wafer, or you may chance to
cover some very important word, upon
which the meaning Of the whole sentence
depends.
The direction on the outside should be
plain and full. First the PERSONS name,
then the town or Post Office then the
county and then the State. There should
be no fourishes with the Pen, in the di.
rection of letter. 1t should be done in
plain, legible hand. Care should also be
taken in folding letter. We have received
some letters, of which we were actually
ashamed, and no doubt the writers were.
A little pains will make all those things
come easy to you, and are great acquisi-
ton.

Honesty, Capacity and FideItiy.

How this text of Zachary, is lived up to,
and carried out, by his appointees to office |!
Ave are certain, that dming the last four
years, we have not heard of so many mail
and POst-office robberics las have been COM
mitted since the advent of Colamer.
Taylor, and Co. Almost every paper
we open contains an account of a post
olhce felony. Talk about officers under
the last administration. Nine months have
convinced every one, of the honesty, ca
pacity, and fidelity Of whig Posr-masters
and clerks.
The mail Of Nov. 3d,from Oswego, to N.
York, containing checks and drafts to the
amount of $4,000 or SO 900 which should
have reached New York on the 5h inst.
has not been heard from.
AT Springfield, Ohio, few days since, a
mail agent was arrested for robbery of the
mail. $1,000, have been recovered.
In our own Comfy is a case of daring
and successful robbery. The culprit is ar.
rested 1864 having been found upon him.
We have not pretended to keep an ac-
count of these things, and no doubt many
more could be gathered up, with a very lit.
tie trouble. But these are enough to show
the character for Honesty, Capacity and
Hdeiity' which "lhe all decency party"
wear before the world. What commen-
tary is this, upon the promise of the Whig
Party to conduct the government and reform
abuses

ill., The whig papers are all in a muss,
in trying 10 defend Governor Johnson, in
his gross violation of the pardoning power.
Every one that we pick up, is in arms up
on the subject; and altogether they are in
great stew. Now if the Governor is re-
ally so innocent as they would have us to
believe, why pour out so many pens full Of
wrath on Judge Parsons !
SKUNK, and PORTER, also, come in for
their share, and they endeayor to hide the
responsibility of johnson, by putting for.
ward the acts done by those democratic
governors. If their exceIencies, Porter
and Skunk, were wrong in this thing, let
them take the blame; but in what way
will this affect VIM. f. Johnston! Two
wrongs do not make right, and the pres.
ent Governor is as guilty as if Messrs Por-
ter and Skunk had pardoned twice the ac.
Iual number.
Such defence merely shows tie dparth
Of arguments, labored under by his deGen-
lers; and we think that Judge Parsons,
has done his duty-nobly and fearIessly
