Her Epitaph.

The handful here, that once was Mays earth,
Held while it breahed. so beautiful SOUL
That when she died, all recognized her birth,
And hath their sorrow in serene control.
- Not here not here to every mourner's
heart
The wintry wind seemed whispering round her
bier;
And when the tomb-door opened, with a start
We heard it echoed from within,-" Not here"
>houdst thou, sad pilgrim, who mayst hither
pass.
Note in these flowers a delicate hue,
should spring come earlier to this hallowed
grass,
Or the bee later linger on the dew
Know that her spirit to her body lent
Such sweetness grace, as only goodness can,
That even her dust, and this her monument,
Have vet spell to stay one lonely man.
Lonely through life, but looking for the day
Wien what is mortal of himself shall sleep,
When human passion shall have passed away,
And love no longer be thing to weep.

Postage.

The new law went into effect on the 1st of
July. On and after that time, letters to
all parts of the United States, will so at the
rate of three cents per half ounce. This vii
doubtless greatly increase the amount of
correspondence between the East and Cali
fornia. The Postage on newspapers by mail
for all distances, in or out of the State, will
be as follows: Dailies, 81 20 year or 80 cts
quarter. When dailies are issued times
a week cts. more per quarter, and 90 cts.
more year tri-weekly 60 cts. a year, or
10 cts. quarter semi-weekly. 10 and 10 cts ;
and weekly, 20 cts. year or cts. quar-
ter. Weekly papers go free subscribers
in the county where published, as heretofore
1t will be seen that periodical postage has
breen educed to decimals, the half cent having
been abolished-a decided Improvement,
which, among a certain class, will save much
grumbling.

How The Blockade IL Run.

We have letter from an officer on board
one ot the blockading vessels of Charles
ton. which tends 10 explain the mystery OF
blockade running in The face Of an efficient
blockading squadron. The writer has not
been lorg On the station, and cannot see the
b,aut: ss OF The red tape system which makes
the pursuit Of 4 blockade runner a very leis-
urelv business. In his letter, dated June 2S.
he says:
Another blockade runner went ont last
night. She passed across our bows, between
US and the Unadilla. We were about three
fourlhs of mile apart. \ vessel, supposed
TO have been her, came cut in sight of US at
) O'Clock in the evening, took the bearings,
and went back out of sight until - o'clock.
1t was then dark. ard the lookout first de-
serted the white water foam from her wheel.
She was reported to the officer on deck He
came and looked, and reported it the cap
tain. He came ana looked and ordered a
Gun TO be fired into her and rocket 10 be
sent up. There was some blundering abou,
getting the gun ready, and when fired the
steamer WAS nearly out of sight. The rocket
was sent straight up, instead of in the di'
rection of the steamer, to LET the feet know
her course. \ white light was also burned
10 let them know a vessel had run out, but
no signal or answer, or sign of life came from
any. not even from the Unsdilla, which wa:
aS near to her as we were. After she haC
got out she le: off a rocket and showed {
light. in answer to two rockets from ashore
to let them know of her escape. After thi.
| shall believe there is some truth in whs
one Of the crew of a gunboat told me a
Port Royal, viz that they run in and out a
regular as the mail. Two steamers within /;
week of each other looks like If.
+ Ny opinion is that two or three fast tugs
constantly under way inside of US nights, ar
peremptorily required here in order to main
tain a strict blockade, and perhaps two o
three fast side wheel steamers quite outside
to give chase in case blockade runner es
capes."
