The fire-engnes got hemmed in by the flames

ceived at the city post Office very many of the
three-cent envelope stamps, which are sold in
packages of twenty five for eighty cents, and at
the same rate for larger number. The only OBJ
lection to them is, that the printer has prominent
" paraded his name and the nature of his business
at the sealing point; thus gratuitously awaiting
himself of the opportunity to give his advertise
ment widespread circulation. Many an active
patent medicine manufacturer would no doubt
generously pay the General Government for such
desirable privilege.

 of the voters, to Putup boxes at,b. E different localities where election, will be held, for the purpose of re ceiving such contributions as ,he ad mirers of the llluStriouS Father c his Country may think proper tot t.. posit in aid of the great Monumem now in course of erection in this ciry 10 his memory.
 They feel assured that when lhs noble and patriotic purpose is pc. |sented to the people, they will no hesitate 10 give their mite for sue. an object; and it now becomes mor necessary, as the funds of the socs. ty are rapidly diminishing and may not soon be adequate 10 carry on the work. A small contribution from each citizen or voter throughout the United States, would be sufficient n complete the Monument,-a woh intended to add to their glory as well as to honor the memory of the illus. trious dead. A half dime is but an |inconsiderabIe sum. and yet hal dime contributed by every inhabitant .of our country, would rear the gram structure, now in progress, 10 its de,. tined completion. IL will be pitiu, wondtouS pitiful, if out of twenty five millions of souls who inha bitMB great country, rendered lndepeD. dent, prosperous and happy mainly by his eXertion and devotion 10 is cause, the sum necessary to erect a Monument worthy of such a man could not be completed for the want of the small pecuniary aid which every American should feel ii his pride, as we'll as his duty to afford.
 At the last Presidential eleetioHs the plan of obtaining contribution, at the Polls, (thus testing the patriot. ism and liberality of the voters ana |others) was attempted through the previous arrangements were not such as to insure a very full colIec ton, the result was as satisfactory a, could, under the circumstances have been expected.
 IL is therefore desirable that th! system should be continued in differ ent states at all future elections of a local or general nature; and tht Board of Managers indulges the hoPt that on this occasion at the electiOn' to be held in the respective states O Arkansas, Alabama, Indiana, Iowa Kentucky, Missouri, Texas, Tennes see. and North Carolina. in Angus next, contributions will be made il aid Of the Monument, worthy of tb.
