TRIMS irregularity in the country
seldom less than two come together

We doubt not there is some good and

We should like to obligc our Baton
Rouge contemporary, but really the
task he suggests is altogether too on
eious. 1t would involve an inquiry
into the management Of the Postoilice
here; into the manner in which CON
tractors perform their duties !; into the
way in which that expensive and mis-
cradle hunbug, called by courtesy
the Western Mail Service in conduct
ed.
But, there is no telling what we
might be tempted to do, it the Comct
would inquire into the cause" and
give a satisfactory explanation why,
yesterday morning, we received fur
Baton Rouge Adrocates, three Com
cts, and three Ga-eUcs 1t will be
seen our grievances are greater then
theirs. And this is no uncommon oc-
currence A regular arrival, bringing
letters and papers rs late as due, is
the exception to the rule of irregulari;y
which prevails, and proves it conclu-
sively.
No radical reform 10 our postal
service need be expected until there is
a complete change in the organization

ITO WHAT BASE Uses MAY WE
RETURN "a correspondent of the
Builder suggests that in consequence
of the scarcity Of paper, our chemists
and manufacturers should direct their
attention TO some plan by which print
ed sheets might be reduced to their
original pulp, and the ink removed
from them, and then the pulp made
up again into paper, which might
thus "do duty over and over again"
Were this suggestion carried out,
what wonderful reflections would each
printed shee. give rise to! "Ovid's
Metamorphoses" would be as nothing
compared to the strange changes un-
dergone by this converted paper. The
transmutation Of metals would be
mere child's play to it. Even Ham
let's dream of tracing the noble dust
Of Alexander, till he found it stop
ping a bung-hole would appear less
visionary.
.'lmrerious Caesar, dead and turned to clay,
stopping hole to keep the wind away"
would be considerably less strange
than the history of a single sheet Of
papcr.-D'ogenes.

EE Mr.. Edward Dupasseur. oil

EE- Mr.. Edward Dupasseur, Of
New Orleans, states that when he
left the Arctic, Mr. Browns family,
consisting of seven persons, were
standing Oh the deck Of the steamer.
The largest boat of the steamer, which
was capable of carrying SO persons,
could not be launched, on account of
its size and weight, and the want Of
time and assistance from the crew to
rig purchases to get it out. Many
persons, however, Got in the boat as it
stood on the deck, hoping that it
would float when the steamer should go
down.
