Where is Drake s. T. 1860 X?" We have
heard this question asked many times
and for all we knew for year past he
might be dead. Recently in New York,
we called at his Laboratory in Liberty
Street, and there found this gentleman
barricaded behind a tremendous pile OF
boxes. distributing funds to Sunday
School Committee. Our business was to
secure an advertisement. He said ;" My
dear sir, what is the use of advertising
the Plantation Bitters? They sell better
now than when Il advertised at such
enormous expense, and now L have not
made contract for year, / have all
this amount to give to the poor. To sat-
sly the Press, who have always been
my friends, think I will give you lit
tie something to do again, tor have i'm
proved the Bltters greatly, and 1t may be
we'll to have you let the people know it,
And SO he ran on in happy, cordial, ap-
preciative manner, showing us the wont
ders of his place and the cords of certifl-
Gates. Every thing is on magnificent
scale, and is done with neatness and
promptness. While there we saw at least
forty orders come in for these celebl ated
Bitters Cases were being shipped to the
four corners of the world. Drake is not
dead nor his Bitters either.-Exchange

Pcsr OFFICE AT FERRY PoINr.-We learn
that the proposition to get up post once
at Ferry Point, mention of which was
made in the Day Book last week, has SO far
progressed as to be virtually secured. The
Postmaster General having been applied to
on The subject, has sent down for particulars
in regard to the place, location, number of
inhabitants, &c. They are so sanguine of
the success of the project over there, that
the Postmaster for the place has been man,
e. by the citizens, which duty we believe
is to fall on Walter Harris, ESQ. 1t is sup
posed letters for the Point will not only be
delivered at that office, but for nearly all
the inhabitants of st. Brides Parish, Nor

The people on the Point are talking
strong about having the County Court re-
moved from Portsmouth to their location,
where it was formerly located, and the
court house and Jail of which is still stand

to have the county court house in the
county, and many of the inhabitants seem
determined to put matters in train to have
a vote taken on the subject.
