TYPOGRAPHICAL ERRoas.-Vexatous typograpbi
cal errors will sometimes occur in newspapers in
spite Of all the vigilance that can be exercised.
Editors do not often trouble themselves much about
them, knowing their readers to be capable of dis
tinguishipg those that the fault Of the proof
reader, and trusting for indulgence to the extenu
ating circumstance of haste and hurry in going to
press. They cannot always be avoided, even where
time is given for thorough reading and all con-
ceivable precautions adopted. We have recently
met with curious historical fact, which may be
appositely related in this conuexon. 1t is to the
effect that some hundred years ago number of the
professors of the Edinburgh University attempted
TO publish work which should be perfect speci
men of typographical accuracy. Every precaution
was taken to secfsethe desired result Six expert
enced proof rcad6N employed, who devoted
hours to the reading of each page, and, after
it was thought to be perfect, it pasted
up in the hall Of the University, with noti-
fcation that reward of $50 would be paid to any
person who discovered error. Each page was
suffered TO remain two weeks in the place where it
had been pasted before the work was completed,
and the professors thought that they had attained
the sbject for which they had been striving. When
the work issued, it was discovered that several
errors had been committed-one cf which was in
the first line of the first page.

RoBBINe THE MAIL.--Peter b. Hoge, the SON OF
the postmaster at Scottsville, arrested Fri
day last charge of robbing the mail, and is
now in Jail in Charlottesville. He ID only about
sixteen years of age, though he has had the man
agcment of the Office at Scottsyile for three years
past, his father being engaged in teaching school.
il seems that great complaint has been made of the
irregularities of that office for some time, and
there has been suspicion that all not right.
Last week the Post Office Department sent on a
mail agent to look into the matter, who found
money upon Hoge which had been marked and
put in letter for the express purpose Of detecting
him. Several hundred dollars besides were found
upon his person.
This truly melancholy occurrence is another
warning to parents not TO place boys, whose char
acters uniformed, in situations where they will
be exposed to strong temptation.-C Charlottesville

Increase in 1851, S2,697 90 The fiscal year
commences 10 October, consequently nine months
of the year have passed, and the for these
nine months, compared with the same time last
year, shows an increase of $8 9l4s 81. The Patriot
says:
',The revenue of 1850 was greatly larger than in
l849, and the fact that there is increase in this
year that Of 1850 is most gratifying evil
dence Of the prosperity of the road, and of the
already large and rapidly increasing trade OF the
country through which it passes.
at will be noted that the increase is the main
STEM while the revenue of the branch to Wash
ington has fallen off this year. This is of course,
owing entirely to the fact that Congress adjourned
last March, while il in session in 1850 up to the
fall. The falling off, is then, entirely from the \
tural decrease of travel 10 and from Washington.
This circumstance would also necessarily affect
the travel over the main stem, and yet the revenue
from it is larger this year than it was last''
