The following legal decision in re.
lation to Newspapers from the high
est authority, we wish every Post
master, and every subscriber to q
newspaper throughout the country,
would take the trouble to read care
fully:
!. A postmaster is required tC
give notice by letter (rcturlIIug the
paper does not answer the law,
when a subscriber does not take his
paper from the Office and state the
reason for its not beng taken, and
IA neglect to do so makes the post
master responsible to the publisher
for the payment.
,. Amy person who takes a pa
per regularly from the Post Office
whether directed to his name OF
aHother-or whether he has sub
scribcd or not, is responsible for tn,
payment.
3. If n person orders ais panel
discontinued, he must pay all arrear
ages or the publisher may continu,
to send it until payment is made
and collect the VII lie amount " beth
,r it is taken from the Office or not.
4. If Il SUBSCRIBER order his pa
per to be stoppe at certain time
and the publisher continues to sen,
it, the subscriber is bound to pa,
for it if he takes it out of the Pos
Office. The law proceeds on til,
ground that man must pay fo
what he uses.
3. The courts have decided tha'
refusing to take newspapers and pc
riodicals from the Post Office, or re
moving and leaving them uncallc,

GEN. MEADE ON THE ALABAMA

GEN. MEADE ON THE ALABAMA
FLECTIoN.-The official report OF
Gen. Meade to Gen. Grant gives the
following analysis OF the vote at the
recent Alabama election:
"TOtal vote cast for the constitu-
ton 1882, against 1905; total at
the election 71.S17. OF that vote
there were cOlored, 81, 1914; white,
6702; not separated, 1921. Of the
colOred vote, for the constitution,
62,OS9; against, 105; white, 1892
for, 900 against. A comparison Of
the vote cast in October last for the
Convention with the present election
shows the white vote for the Con
vention 1858 white vote for con-
stitution, 1902; loss on constitution,
12,751 cOlOred vote for the Con
vention, 1890; for the constitution,

Total loss of vote on the constitu-
ton from the vote for the Conven-
ton, 22,302"

tons and corrections, it appears
that the new Constitution fails of
ratification by S114 votes. 1t has
