OF THE PosToFFIoE.
AI.adx in tl,e Case.


Since the reception from Washington Of
intelligence that Hon. w. #. Prosser
would likely be appointed Postmaster at
Nashville, We have heard OF a number OF
other Richmonds being in the field for the
honors and emoluments Of the position.
One of those, and without the seeking on
her part or on the part of her friends, is
ytung lady, who, it is thought, would not
be averse to wearing the laurels of Post
mistress of Nashville. She is progresses
ing in personal attractions, accomplished,
unmarried, and bears the name OF Helen:
II Helen, the daughter of Jupiter, could
bring about Trojan war, and mirror ner
beauty in the immortal verse OF blind OLD
Homer, and call out the prowess OF
ancient Ulysses, why should not
Nashville Helen throw the Postctnce
Department at Washington into futter
through the susceptibilities of our modern
Ulysses? There is no reason on earth why
she should not. Then besides the father
of our Helen, who is among our well
known and best citizens, resided for time
in another State, and was near nelghbor
Of President Grant Pleasant and Leigh
borly amenities rninterruptedly existed
between the two families, and quite an
attachment sprang up which has continued,
with mutual reciprocity of feeling ever
since
Though all unsought and unexpected,
there was nothing unreasonable or unna-
tural in the indication on the part of their
former friend and neighbor, now
at the head of the ''best government the
world ever saw" that he was ready to be
of service to them in any way, not incon-
sistent with his official position, etc. In
this way the lady became favorably con-
sidered with reference to the Postoffice
here.
As for this deponent, with all due defer
ence to the claims of PEosser, Hopkins Il
Co., we are for Miss Helel-we are deci-
dedly for her. 1t is in the order and
peculiar fitness of things, that she should
be appointed; it is proper and legitimate.
Ever since the days of Adam, woman has
controlled the males, an she should con-
tinue to do so. Miss Helen! We are for
you.

and Shelby. These are partially protect
ed-other portions OF the State have no
protection except such as given by the

forbidding persons hunting or fishing
within their closes. 1t may be that some
future Legislature will meet the gener i
want by enacting a general law for this
desirable purpose, applicable to all alike.

If we do not have change of Postmaster
here it will not be because there are not
parties who are willing to take the po-
sition. Since the subject of change was
first mooted, we have heard of no less than
a dozen who eould be persuaded or pre-
vailed upon to take it in case of an emer-
eency. We understand that DR.. Thomas
A. Kercheval left on the train yesterday for
Washington, with heavy numerical back
ing, with view of obtaining the appoint
ment. We see no way to stop the scram-
BILE and to provide for all the faithful, but
for the Government to create more 'orif-
ces,n as Artemus Ward would say.
Kerchival will hear some news at Lcuis-
vile.
