Postmaster Hollis snelodious pe1-ora.ion to
bis late report, tells us how
'"The Postoffice Department, in its ceaseless
lAlors, pez1ades every channel Of commerce
and every theaser Of human enterprise, aud
wb1le visiting, ~ it does kindly, every flreside,
mingles With tho throbbing Of almost every
heart in the land. In the amplitude Of its
beueGccIce, it ministers 10 all clncs and creeds,
and pursuits, with the same eager READINGS and
with equal fuiness Of fidelity. 1t is the delicate
ea1 trump, through which alike nations and fam
lilies and Isolated Individuals whisper their joys
and their sor7 ous, their convictions aad their
sympathies, to all who listen TO- their coming
Very fine indeed may say super6ne: but
It is scarcely as true as il is eloquent. While
the Postotice Department puts it in tho power
Of erery Ignorant, stupid OF drunken postmas-
ter Of Virginia to nr1est the mails Of the United
States, ''the amplitude Of its benedcence' is not
50 clear. The delicate ear trumpet seems to be
stopped at one end, and anybody. who shouts
freedom into it will be greatly mistaken if he
supposes that the words viii come out at the

Card.
The \. T. OJserrer says cf the recently pub
lished sta1ement Of the erring Secretary Of tie
American Board Of Missions:
We regret the necessity ot printing this card.
and still more ofsax,ny that tits utterly uosas-
isfactory to those who had lingering hope
that Dr. Pouror had been more sinaed ngail,st
that shining. His card dispels that hope. lie
distinctly denies any guilt except that tin three
instancea' he WAS ''made victim and had to
'.pay certain sums Of money to be relieved from
circumstances and dangers into which" lie '.h.d
been drawn" There Is no ''guil.' in this It
is not his crime, it is misfoItt ne, for good
man to ba~duped and cheated out Of his money,
but such u misfortune affords no pretext for
him to say he deserves to be damned to all
eternity :or it. The ''card'' is a contradiction
onthe face il; Inconsistent, utterly in its pre-
mise an1 conclusion; evincing cool hypocrisy
throughout, &fioEding 10 our minds, and to eve
r. one who has spoken to US On The subject,
most abundant evidence that the prompt action
Of the Prudential Committee was necessary and
wise, vind;cating their claim to the entire con-
fdence and sympathy Of every Of every friend

She had no longer the look of Titania,
but that OF lively, active, afTectionate
human child; nothing theatrical about her
now, yet still, in her graceful movements
so nimble, but, SO nOiyclcSs, in her slight
fair hands, in her transparent cOloring,
there was natures own lady-thNt some
thing which strikes US all as we'll born

wrought into the collars Of princes,
springs up wild OH field and fell.
There is certain epoch III our child
hood where what is called the romance of
sentiment, first makes itself vaguely felt.
And ever with the dawn of that sentiment
the moon and the stars take 81 strange
and hunting fascination. Few persons
in middle liFe-evcn though they be genu-
inc poets-feel the peculiar spell i'll the
severe stiffness and mournful splendOr of
starry skies which impreSses most of us,
even though no poets at all, N that mys-
tic age, where childhood nearly touches
upon youth, and turns an unquict heart to
these marvellous riddles, within us and
without, which we cease to conjecture
when experience has taught us that they
have no solutions on this side the grave

mockery, a temple in ruins-if still left

that they may be taken for each other,
and poets have clad them with the same
veil. But in childhood, in early yOnth,
expect not the changeless green OF the

temper from spiritless dulInesS, from cold

than what the disposition.

general rule do choose the oldest wives!
Tho cIeverer a man is, the more easily,
do believe, woman can take him in.
No preparation by the eulogies of de-
Scription can lessen the effect which the
first sight of beautiful object produces
upon a mind to which refinement of idea
gives an accurate and quick cOmprehen-
sion of beauty. Be il a work of art,
scene of nature, or, rerest of all, human
face divine, a beauty never before beheld
strikes us with hidden pleasure, like a
hurst of light; and it is a pleasure that
elcvates. The imagination feels itself
richer by new idea of excellence; for not
only is real beauty wholly original, having
no prototypes, but its immediate influence
is spiritual.
