Less than century since, Benjamin
Franklin, the Postmaster General of the
Colonies, SIT out in his old gig to maxi,
az official inspection Sf the different
routes. 1t is supposed that We accom-
pli>hcd the object OF his Journey; but if he
was to undertake to travel in lis gig all
over the routes ut present existing, he
would arrive at the end Of his journey
when he was about al hundred wears old.
-About eighty years since, Congress ap-
pointed DR.. Franklin Postmaster General
to the independent Colonies, he still went
in his old gig, and Il small folio, contain
ing about three quires of paper, lasted as
his account book for two Years. Now the
railroad train goes sixty miles nm hour
and the poStotticc accounts consume eve
ry two years, three thousand of the lar
gcst sized lcdGcrs, kccringn no less than
enc hundred clerks constantly employed
i'll recording transactions with thirty thou
sand contractors and other PERSONS
There are now paid annually for mail
locks, keys and stamps, nearly thirty two
thousand dGllars-a sum equal to the en-
tire outlay of the whole department in the
year 1T98. The stamped envelopes and
postage stamps cost over fourteen thou
sand dollars; the mail bagstifty thousand;
the blanks seventy-one thousand; the
wrapping paper forty-onc thousand.
Franklin would be slightly astoniShcd
if he could rise from his grave, travel to
Washington in his old gig, sec the three
thousand lcdgcrs, the one hundred clerks,
and hear the mail train thunder past him
at the rate of sixty miles an hour. And
yet what would be his emotions when he
reflected that this was but one evidence of
the rapid advance Of the great republic of
which hc was one Of the founders.

Life Is but n span.

Life is but span of horses;
One is Age the other Prime
Up and down the hill our course is:

Bolhood plies The whip Of pleasure;
Youthful folly gives the stroke;
Mamlood goadS them at his leisure.
Let 'em rip, they're tough as oak
Hi. va! there the stakes we'll pocket;
To the winds let care be sent;
Time, 2.4'-'wlip in socket
Give en- string and let 'cm went
On the sunny road to fifty,
prime is drowned lin Lcthe's stream =
Age is left, lame, old, un;hrify:
Life then proves "a one horse team
Age joys on, grows quite unsteady,
Reels and slackens in his pace;
kicks the bucket always ready,
Give it up'-Death wins the race.

The Review Of Mr.. CurliS' address on

We publish on our first page an able review
of a recent Grafton by G. w. Curtis, the we'll
known author OF ''Howadji in SYRIA" sc. The
subj~ct Of the orator vas Patriotism. A theme
like this, Of course, could not be handled By d
fanatic ike Mr.. Curtis, without IacbrynoSe
aIUsion TO negro slavery, the bugbear that has so
sadly frightened the descendants of the witch
burners Of New Eng land. On this point our re-
viewer meets Mr.. Curtis with force OF argn-
ment and fund OF rdcuie that must certainly
make the patriotic Howadji feel ashamed Of his
absurd position. The entire article is foil Of
sound, common sense, and is written with much
vgor, as we'll as gracefulness of style. We
have not room to notice the performance elabo-
ratey, and can only recommend it TO our readers
as one OF high order of merit. We have heard
it intimated that Mr.. James Skunk, son Of The
late Gov. Skunk, and at present Private Secre-
tary to Attorney General Black, is the author.
