COOP ADVICE A brisk walk in the
open air, once day without fail, is
better than pills and potions. Be good
company for yourself too. Don't go
out sauntering along, with your hands
in your pockets, and your head sunk
down upon your br, asst, imagining
that you are taking exercise. You
might as well be travelling over the
treadmill Think of pleasant things
call up bright remembrances --freshen
your mind and brain as well as your
body If you were entertaining COM
pany, you would not range all your
cares and trials and tribulations before
them by way of light conversation.
Why should you be less consderate of
yourself Leave your Affections at
home-they need no exercise-and
take blessing with you to ponder on
as you walk. There is no man SO poor
that he has not at least one blessing to
accompany him on his daily walk.
Speak pleasantly to those at home.
Cross words are like the rows of domi-
noes we used to set upon the table in
our childish games. When one fell it
drew after it indescribable. One cross
word seldom lacks company-it is con-
tagious.
Do your share in keeping the world
in good humor. Courtesy is cheap,
and he who can give nothing else GER
tainly can afford polite word and q
pleasant look. There are enough cur
mudgeons to more than balance civil
ed society, and you certainly owe your
allegiance to the latter.
Look ON the bright side of things.
II it rains to-day, look out for sunshine
and blue sky to-morrow. Don't take 1t
for granted that every man you meet
is villain. don't spend your time in
guessing at "the motive" of your
neighbours kindly deeds. 1t takes no
more breathe to laugh than it does to
groan.

AARON BURR'S DAUGHTER.

Grace Greenwood, in the New York
Independent, thus speaks of Aaron
Burr's daughter j:
Theodosia Burr's habits of life were,
I have heard my mother say, much
like those of Mrs. Kemble. She was a
famous walker and skater, and accom-.
panied her father on shooting and
fishing excursions. As horse woman
she was unsurpassed ; and, on her visits
to her New England friends, sometimes
astonished their quiet neighbors by
riding over the country, taking walls
and bitches in flying leaps. Yet she
was, in the best sense of the word,
feminine and essen tally lady.
The last days of this great woman
were very sad, and her fate is even yet
wrapped in the most awful obscurity.
1t is only known that, when broken in
health and almost in heart, she EN-
parked for Charleston to join her I'M
happy father in New Yoak, on small
sailing vessel by her physician and SER
want. That vessel was never heard of
more, and it has always been supposed
that it foundered in gale, off Cape
Hatteras. But some twenty five or
thirty years ago, seaman dying in a
hospital at New Orleans, confessed to
having been a pirate and, among 9th
er terrible things, he told of his ship
having run down a schooner bound to
New York from Charleston, and having
scuttled her after taking possession Of
everything valuable. The few passen-
gers saved, and such of the crew as were
disinclined to enlist under their black
banner, they compelled to walk the
plank. Among the passengers was one
lady, who demonstrated against having
her hands bound, and being blind fold
ed, promising to offer no resista nee.
So they let her have her way, he said !;
and she stepped quietly on to the plank
and, with her eyes wide open, walked
off into the sea. have always believ
that the woman who met her fate in
this grand Roman way, was the daugh-
ter of Aaron Burr, Theodosia Allston,

We call attention to the poem by the above
title, by Mrs. Stansbury. 1t comes to us in
the same hand writing that other poems have
by Annie Stansbury. In fact Annie STAINS
bury was first written and afrerward eras-
ed, and Mrs. Stansbury written with differ.
ent ink. We understand that the poem has
heretofore been published In the Chicago
Times, and, we inter, asby Mrs. Stansbury,
and hence the reason for changing the nom
de plume from Annie Stansbury to Mrs.
Stansbury. We understand that the poem
was much praised at the time, but is now
out of print, or at least the author had not a.
printed copy of it. ~.
The poem is not perfect in measure, and
we are sorry to have to say that some errors
in printing, overlooked in the proof, render
it more imperfect in this respect. For in
stance: 81 have met with the dread foe,
the word apith was not in the copy and ought
not to be in print. There are so few close
readers of poetry, however, we think there
will be but few who will notice the errors in
measure, either Of the poet or the printer
Aside from the errors in measure, the poem
is a good one and will be appreciated by all.
unless some of our skeptical readers should
take exceptions to the doctrinal sentiments
We give place to it the more readily as the
orthodox will be pleased with it in this re-
spect, and we intend that all shall be
treated fairly. iii

Foreign correspondence:

We publish to-day letter from Tolney
French, Esq, from Frankfort, Germany.
In private note, dated July 18th, accom-
panying his letter for the TELEGRAPH,
MI. French says that he arrived safe and
sound at Frankfort on the Goth July. At
Frankfortah he received on the Goth of Ju-
ly, the TELEGRAPH of July 1st, of which
he says: "You may be sure was glad to
welcome it." The TGHFeRAPH has been
directed to "YolneY French, Frankfurt am
Main, Germany" and regularly mailed.
since July 1st, and I'VE trust that heislre-
ceiying it regularly. Mr.. French's nu
merous friends will be glad to hear from
him and to read his communications.
Some years ago, when Mr.. French was
travelling extensively through EurSpe,
Asia and Africa, and corresponding with
the Milwaukee Sentinel, we read his com.
munications with much pleasure and prof
it. After his return we paid him the com
pliment of saying to hir that we consid-
cred his correspondence more interesting
than that of Bayard Taylor, who, about
the same time, was travelling on the East
ern continent and corresponding with
some American publication. And as Mr..
French was inclined not to acknowledge
the business of the compliment, we ex-
planned by saying that Bayard Taylor had
Travelled SO much himself that he took it
for granted chat his readers knew much
more about the places and things of which
he was writing than they did, unless they
generally knew much more about them
than we did, and presum1ng thus upon
their knowledge, he wrote in such way
that, many times, his readers did not I'M
derstand what he wrote. Whereas Mr..
French, having travelled less, did not take
it for granted that his readers knew what
they did rot, and wrote LII such way
that they could understand what he wrote.
And hence the reason why his correspond
ence was more interesting to us, and prob
ably to many others, than that of Bayard
Taylor.
1t is not Mr.. French's intention to tray
ell at present, but to remain with his fam
lily at Frankfort. But without travelling
there will enough come to his knowledge
in Frankfort to enable him to make his
correspondence very interesting to the
readers of the TELEGRAPH as well as our
self, and we trust that we and they may
often hear from him.

a Word to Correspondents.

All correspondents and writers for the
press desire to have what they write ap-
pear we'll in print And sometimes some
are dissatisfied if their communications
do not appear we'll whether they are we'll
written or not. We have sometimes spent
an hour to read communication that we
could have written in quarter of the
time, and then were not certain that we
had read it as it was intended to be writ
ten. We have sometimes let such com
munications go into the hands of the type
settlers, and they have had as much diff
Guilty in reading the communications as
we had, nd when we came to read the
proof we have found it difficult to say
which was the nearest right, the proof
without correction or the copy, but one
thing was quite certain, the proof was
very far from being what it should be-
Then another long time has been spent to
get the communication into shape passable
to give TO our readers And we have
sometimes found that after all this labor
and pains-taking some of these illegible
writers are very exacting, and very ready
to be dissatisfied, and find fault if their
communications do not appear in print as
they think they should do, or as thew
would like to have them.
Now, we would say to all who write for
the TELEGRAPH, and desire to have their
communications appear well therein,
please write legibly. And not only legi
bly' but SO plain that wayfaring mar
though fool need not err therein-sc
plain that even dull and careless typ,

Yncog and Inoog's Poem.

We have received a poem from "Incog,'
which we think good one, and we are pleas
ed with the subject. There was little i'm
perfection in the measure and while examin-
ing itand thinking whether to return the po-
EN- for correction, to correct it, or to publish
it as it was, we laid it down to find a paper
for some one, and since then we have not
been able to find it.. IT Incog" will furnish
corrected:copy of it, it shall appear in due
time.

The Editor of the Educational Column
gives to his readers to-day a poem, which
for beauty, sentiment and truthfulness we
commend to our readers is SO beauti-
full SO truthful and so good that is pain
full to indit POLITICALLY imperfect. The
measure is intended to be eight and is
passable, except the line, " Thrust him in
to deeper depths Of night which contains
one foot to many. The great imperfection
is in the verse. Take for instance the
second syllable Of the last line of the first
four verses. In the first and second it IS
short and unaccented, in the third it is
long and accented and in the Fourth it
is short and accented. The third line as
neither Iamhic, Trochaic, nor regularly,
any other verse, and consequently it lacks
in rhythmic harmony.
We have long felt that the Education
al Column needed attention, but till now
have not spoken of it through the TE1sE-
eRAPAg The poem, FOODS GIFTS" lis
SO good and so near perfect that we think
it good place to begin, and we trust that
our comments may be received as intended.
Our purpose is now, and has been hereto

PosToFFICE STATIsTICs.-At our re-
quest our worthy and efficient Post
Master, Capt. Rawling, has kindly fur
nished US the following information OF
the business done in the money order
department at the Post Office in this
city. The receipts for the years 1861
add 1865 are also given. It will be seen
from this showing that our city is in
creasing, more rapidly. perhaps, than
even our citizens arc aware of. We
give Capt. Rawlings note without the
formal address and date:
Herewith 1 send you an item which I
think will be OF interest to the public:
the business of this office In 1861 and
1865 as compared with the year 1868.
The year 1861 is taken for the general
business on account of its just proceed
ing the .boisterous four years, and as
showing the business ante OeLtt1n. The
wear 1865 is selected for comparison in
the money order business, being the
first year after the establishment OF
that system here.
The receipts of the office for 1861 were
a little over 10000; do tor 1868, $24 900
amount received Tor money orders is
sued in 1865, $4,000; amount paid money
orders drawn on the office 1866 less
than &C, 600; amount received for money
orders issued in 1865 was over $3l 900;
amount paid money orders drawn on
the office 1865 was over $32, 900.
The business of the office it will be
observed has been more than doubled in
eight years, and the money order bust
ness more than quadrupled in four
