pS LIFE is fountain fed by q
thousand streams, that perish If one be
dried. II is silver cord twisted with q
thousand strings that part asunder If one
il broken. ThoughIless mortals are
surrounded by innumerable dangers
which make it moro strange than they
must all perish suddenly at last.

Our Post Once Deoart,2l mt.

We see that the Post Office Department has
directed prosecution to be commenced against
4 Messenger who is charged with carrying cor
respondents letters, between Albany and New
York. 1t is true that we have employed poor
boy to carry unsealcd packages, which have
been delivered to ~ after midnight and it is
true that he has never lost stolen a single
package.
And now let us see what encouragement we
Of tile Courier and enquirer have TO patronize
the Government Post Office exclusively. We
can assign several excellent reasons for not do
Jig so.
l. On tie 1Ith Of December last, a letter was
deposited in the New \ orll City Post Office
enclosing five hundred dollars TO Il gentle
man connected 'rith this establishment in
Washington City. Ihatfetter has nerer been
heard Of.
H. On the 22nd day Of December last a let
ter containing one hundred and eighty
eight dollars addressed 10 gentleman IN
this Office, was mailed in Baltimore. Ihdt
iattcr las aeter been AeGrd Of.
III. GA the Sth of January, gentleman from
this Office mailed letter containing one
hundred and fifty dollars addressed TO a
town in Massachusetts,. That letter has acc
cr been keafd Of.
In every one these eases, it can be proved
to the satisfaction Of any jury, that tie letter
was piainly directed and duly mailed with a
pre- paid stamp uTon it.
There are people who would think the loss Of
1888 IN four weeks, eight hundred and thirty
eight substantial reasons for no longer trusting
the government establishment We, however,
are more forbcaring, and have not withdrawn
our patronage from Mr. Campb2ils mail. Wien
speed and safety are nos important, we cheerful
~ recommend that concern to the publicly.
