EXTRAORDINARY cORREsPoNDENCE.

Most of our older readers undoubtedly
remember the following correspondence
between Amos Kendall, when he was Post
master General, and Postmaster down in
Alabama, from whom Mr.. Kendall wished
to learn the source of the TombiSbes
river. 1t will bear a reprins--so here
goes:
"Sm: - This Department de.

runs up. Respectfully yours, &C.,
A. K, Postmaster Generals
Tho reply Was brief, and ran thus
r. "Sn: The Tombigbes river
doesn't run up at all-it runs down. So -.
Very respectfully, &c., N. D."
The Postmaster General contin usi the
correspondence in this style: .a& ssl.,&s5
"SIR: - Your appointment ~
postmaster st-----, il revoked. You will
turn over the funds, papers, de-, pertaining
to your Office to your successor,

parting shot E s.3s; ess'asa =.

ANANCIENT OHIO FIGHT.

Upward Of a quarter of a century ago, n
little affair occurred IN high life, in the town
Of Columbus, which ought not to be suffered
to pass into oblivion. The scene was the
front of the venerable hotel kept by Bob
RUSSELL who, with his we'll known colored
servant 'Dick,' Thoroughly marked with the
small-pox,) will not soon pass out of the
mind Of the surviving settlers of the State ::
MIR. Fly was Attorney General OF Ohio,
and Mr.. Id was Chief Clerk in the Of
fee of the Auditor of State. The United
States Court was in session, and MIR. +.
improved the opportunity to explain to IL
company Of constituents in front Of the
hotel the circumstances Of a claim which
had accrued to the Sullivan heirs' in con-
sequence Of the removing of the Capitol of
Ohio from Franklin to Columbus. In the
course Of his remarks, he questioned the
statements in the Auditors books. Mr.. l..
ut once pronouncsd his statement lie.
Il cannot waive rank said Mr., I. 'and
fight this man,
As he proceeded to reiterate his charges.
Mr.. l.. pronounced him a second and a third
time liar, when Mr.. f., became much
excited, shouted:
sMy fellow citizens, | have concluded to
waive the question of rank and settle the
matter at once.'
SO, taking of his coat he descended from
the stand, and Immediately received II tre-
menduous 'rish.-hander,' which lodged him
in neighhoring mud-hole. Getting up he
received 'set,ler,' which brought him on
the same spot. A third time he came to
the 'scratch,' when a well-directed 'eye
binder from the sub auditor caused him
to turn a complete summcrsault, and lodged
him once more upon his mother earth. 10
Turning his eyes around, under the evil
dent impression that he had fulfilled the
utmost requirements OF the 'codc,' and no,
desirous Of performing any purely 'merito.
rious' labors, he addressed himself to hi.
physical superior, as follows:
Before rising from this position, sir,
desire to ask YOU question: Do you TO-
tend to strike me il | get upY' -"
'Of course do, d--n you,' CALCULATED his
adversary. .....

take not, Hon. I. C and Judge s.,

man owes to the affection of woman? All
that have in me that is good will be dou-
bled BY your influence. You must draw forth

manly character"
He paused, and Cynthia stood with her
hands hidden in the folds of her mantle.
"No," she said, slowly; 81 um sorry, Mr..
Handy, but cannot be what you wish to
you"
There was an embarrassed silence be-
tween them for few moments, and then
Cynthia, gathering courage with her rising
pride, continued:
"I am not good enough to answer your
expectations, Mr.. Handy. You must look
elsewhere for the kind Of woman who will
satisfy you"
Handy started and his face flushed eagerly.
He was about to speak. Cynthia caught
the lightning Of his eyes; but when they
rested on her face, he saw that her words
were not wholly sincere, and the look
faded.
"You are not dealing fairly with me Miss
Cynthia, nor yet with your own heart" he
said, a little bitterly. "You are not con-
vinced of what you said this moment. You
think in your heart am foolish fellow, and
that ask too much. You do not think that
Cynthia Simpson falls short Of the reasona-
BILE ideal Of any man."
81 don't know why you should say such
things" said Cynthia, growing angry and
nearly ready to cry. It was tho first time
any offer had been made to her which had
not left behind it a self f-satisfed feeling of
triumph; and yet here was Frank Handy, as
incomrarably superior to any other suitor
