THE CoST OF RECOVERING a DEBr.-A Western
paper gives the following Illustration of the operation
Of law upon debt:
"A gentleman was leaving the city for q brief
period, and gave a black boy, To whom.he was indebt-
ed, an order on a friend for the amount OF the debt
six dollars. The boy knew nothing about orders,
and never presented it. When the gentleman return
ed lac was surprised by a summons to be and appear
at tine Office Of IA certain justice to answer the aforesaid
claim OF six dollars. On the morning appointed for
the trial he appeared and found the court ready to
proceed-the plaintiH grinnirg behind the back of a
young attorney, and a brace OF c~onstables armed with
big clubs ready TO knock down and drag in witnesses
by the score if they are needed. He cut short the
matter at once by acknowledging the claim, and Of
fered TO pay, provided the suit was withdrawn.
The black boy grinned and nodded, hut this proceed
ing did not suit the court. The gentleman swore he
would not pay any costs, and as he was one who car
ried his estate in his pocket, the court knew he was
in a condition to keep his word. But the :" court
knew herself and after 4 little cogitation rendered
Judgment for the debt against the defendant, and
for costs against the plaintiff. The six dollars Was
received and credited on the docket, and the darkey
has been ever since sweeping out the room Of the
young lawyer who collected the debt in payment of
his fee

LETTERS OvERLAND-The outgoing overland mails
now aggregate more letters semi monthly than the
steamer mails, showing that our people understand
the facilities thus offered for communication with the
Atlantic seabOard. The overland mail Is not only
the fastest hut 1t is the safest and the cheapest way
To write Fast Fastest. because the letter gets to its
destination in about twenty days for anywhere in the
Western States cheapest, because n letter 10 Cincin-
natl OF -. Louis overland casts only three cents.
whereas 1t Is taxed ten by the steamer ; and safest
because nothing ever happens to the mail stage,
which has gone with marvellous regularity for two
years, without loosing a letter or meeting with any
kind Of Of accident aud there is no betting against
the viciss!tudes of the ocean. When the overland
mail service commenced, in the fall of 1853, people
doubted about entrusting their letters 10 such a ven
turesOme, and, apparently, unsafe institution. So
only n few dozen letters went by each mail, and
some OF those were more to encourage the thing than
with the belief that they would ever reach their des-
t:nation. For months the highest figure reached
was two or three hundred, and when the combined
press took hold, and raised a tremendous dust. to
induce the public to send by land rather than by
water, We remember The Importance that was at
tached to the fact that q thousand letters had been
sent by one overland mail. 1t is no unusual thing
now TO chronicle a mail Of 5000 or 10000. When
the daily overland mail is established it is not unlike
ly that the entire trans-continental correspondence
