PREPAYMENT OF POSTAGE.

We invite the attention of our readers to the fol-
lowing from the Washington Union, in relation to
the law of the late Congress concerning the
ment of postage:
IMPORTANT TO PosTMAsTERs AND PUBLIC. We
requested to call special attention to the law just
passed by Congress- modifying the rates of postage
&C., particularly to those provisions requiring that
all the letters between places in the United States
shall be prepaid from and after the LIST Of Apri,
1855, by stamps otherwise, and that from and at:
ter tie 1st Of january nert postmasters must place
postage stamps upon all prepaid letters upon which
such stamps may not have been placed by the wri-
ters which may not be enclosed in stamped en-
velopes.
From and after the Of -4prA, 1866, the postage
to be charged each single letter for any distance
in the United States, not exceeding 5000 miles is
three cents, and over 1000 miles ten cents
The law does not change the existing rates or
regulations in regard to letters from Canada other
foreign countries, does it effect the franking
privilege.
The provisions in regard to the registration of
valuable letters will be CARED into effect and special
instructions issued to postmasters the subject
the necessary blanks can be prepared and
distributed
We beg to suggest that editors generally through
out the United States would render essential SER

THE BURIAL OF POOLE.

Eighty thousand people assembled in the streets
of New York last Sunday, to witness the funeral
ceremonies of Poole. Eighty thousand men, women
and children, iii the galatlress Of that holy day,

great vital artery through the centre of the
mcrcal metropolis of the Union to observe the last
ceremonies over the deceased pugilist. Public hon
orS OF the most fattcrEg description lavishcd
upon his remains; great concourse of men Joined
the funeral procession; the most celebrated bands
in the city filled the air with solemn music; five
hundred Know Nothings; one thousand horse-ra-
GERS, prlZe-fghters and fancy men generally; and
several organized fire and benevolent associations
swelled the train. Tom Hyer walked at the head of
the hearse, ard cityaldermaza at The foot, and
pompous Grafton pronounced over his remains!
And who is William Poole? a ruffianly bully

less in bOudOirs than in business Offices have been
performing the, perhaps acceptable duty of spread

friends. And now that he is dead, the city turns
out to his funeral, and more than half page of a
leading city journal is occupied with the details of

cursed this city for many years. and met his death

Yet crowds assemble to see him buried. Meetings
are held to express sympathy for him and the
newspapers are full of news of what he said and
what he did, and what the other members of the
ruffian band do or say. There is here grave cause
for shame and sorrow. Public sentiment must be
deeply diseased when the death of man like Poole
