THE SwEARER REBUKED.-On a certain Occa-
sion General Washington invited number of
his fellow officers TO dine with him. While at
the table, one of them uttered an cath. The
General dropped his knife and fork in mo-
ment, and in his deep undertone and charac-
teristic dignity and deliberation, said-ssI
thought that we all supposed ourselves gentle
men," He then resumed his knife and fork
and went on as before. The remark struck
like gu electric shock, and, as was intended,
did execution, as his remarks, in such cases,
were apt to do. No person swore at the table
after that. And after dinner the officer refer
red to, remarked TO his coinpanion-sthat If
the General had struck him over the head with
his sword, he could have borne it; but the
home thrust which he gave him was too much.
1T was TOO much fer gentlemen And it is
hoped that it will be too much for any one
|. who PretendS to be a gentleman. aa.,

To- Oliver Millikin is as much of a wag as
musician, and to make his waggery the moro
successful, he affects the dress and manner of
a clergyman. With his white caryat and So
Der black coat he makes not bad imitation.
He was al one of the hotels in Springfield
few weeks ago, and MS decidedly clerical APP
pearance attracting the attention Of the COM
pany as they set down to dinner, he was called
upon to ask blessing. He did not refuse,
and got on very well for a sentence or two;
but when he came toward the conclusion, he
found, as it was his first attempt, that he was
utterly unable to remember the usual manner
of closing such an exercise. After hesitating
moment, he recollected the usual subscrip-
tion of his letters, and he brought his petition
to close by adding, with great solemnity,
.sYours truly. Oliver Millikin,''

THE POST OFFICE DIFFICULTY.
ROwEANDsvlLEE, june 26, sc.


A great annoyance has lately grown up in
relation TO the reception of the mails at this
place. The time-honored mode Of receiving
them has been suddenly interrupted. causing
serious Inconvenience lo all and loss to many
of the citiz,ns Of our nrishborhood. 1t is a
great grievance to those who have SO long
had u daily mail to be forced back to the old
custom of receiving them only on Tuesdays
and Fridays, CT of having their letters direct
cd to Pot Deposit; u distance too great to be
reached Ivy many.
The mail for six years past has been de-
Evercd daily at-this Office by private enter
prise. A mail ias wns provided by the p.
NJ. here and lock furnished by the Depart
ment, which is all the expense it ever incur
red in the arrangement that resulted in such
an inestimabe advantage to all concerned.
There has never been any difficulty III get
ting responsible persons to take charge of
this small mail, and deliver it safely at the
Office, Notwithstanding they had to wait !
or Of all hour after the mail was assorted at
Port Deposit, and all the patrons of that Of
flee served. Wien this duty was performed
the handful or two Of letters and papers Ia
daily mail for Rowlandsvillc being compare
lively small, ~ for this office which had been
lying in box by themselves since the mail
had been sorted, was poked into the mail
bag, and delivered to the patient citizen who
had been waiting the pleasure Of the p NJ
There was. however. no remembrance or COM
plant made at this lack of courtesy among
neighbors; so that the Rowlandsville people
received their mail, they seemed to DO little
penance.
Sometime after this arrangement for de-
liverng daily mail at Rowlandsvile, the
mail agent was appriscd Of the fact by the
2. NJ at this place, together with the salts
faction it afforded, and the great convenience
to all most intimately concerned and SUISSE
quently there has been daily mail for Row
landsvillc made up in the cities of Washing

the last two or three weeks, the daily mails
have been refused to the Rowlandsville car

Mr.. EDITOR AS your correspondents
from this place have been silent for some
time will give you few items for The
Wing. Previous to the great rains We MOTTO

heard it observed that it was new kind that
required cultivating, and that he was throw
ing "furrow to it," but OH further enquiry
asccrtained that it was Gale wheat sown
late, and so badly winter killed that he was
ploughing it up and planting the ground with
Potatoes. Since the rains quite n change in
appearances has taken place and nearly full
crop of wheat will be harvested in this Sec
ton. The oats look remarkably well. There
will not, however, be more than half crop
of hay on account of the clover being nearly
all thrown out 10y the severe frosts last win
ter. Corn is backward but is now growing
rapidly.
a larger quantity Of Potatoes than usual
have been planted III expectation Of market

from the Pa. line to The Susqucllanna this

Der of hands were mcnding the road, they
