A Consolidate PosTMAsrER.-The postmaster
at New Bedford appears to be very careful be-
nevolent and pains taking officer. In his adver-
tsed list Of letters he prefxes asterisk to
tain persons name, and appends the following
note
So" This man lives down south, and goes to Bro
Their Deans meeting"
New Bedford paper is obliging enough to add
to the pdstmaster's explanation, by saying that
'sdown south" does not mean South Carolina, but
only that section of the city of New Bedford where
the coored population mostly live, and where,
also, "Brother Deans meeting" is located.

object OF his alteration were there deposited and he
hoped that hs friends would read theIn-rcad them,
that his last dreadful resolve might be justified.
Thus eSclsiming, he rushed from the presence Of
his employer, and boarded a steamer at the cvee I;
assembled TO the hurricane deck, and in another mo-

merely into the drink" for singular Il may
