One of the results of mismanagement
in the Post Office Department is pointed
out by the World. 1t says: 1t will
hardly be believed, and il is neverthe-
less true, that it costs 81 to deliver let
ter in New Orleans, while in Baltimore
the cost for delivering letter is cent.
The following table will prove it:
1871. New Orleans. Baltimore.
Mail letters delivered $4,000 4,S73, ,261
Local letters delivered 7O,475 6l9,5l7
Total letters 5S9,54l 5,492,77S
Cost of carriers $50, ,793.Ol s54 ,63l .S7
Cost per letter 81 cents cent
Upon what grounds this shameful
waste, this glaring beef-eating can be
defended, we leave to Postmaster Gen.
eral CREswELL, who it very much be.
hooves to find them. If our exemplary
Postmaster General becomes autocrat
of the telegraph service, which requires
so many thousands of message carriers,
how equitably he will adjust the mes
sage service!

THE WARM HAND OF SYMPATHY. -
Till we have reflected on it, we are
scarcely aware how much the sum of hui
man happiness in the world is ind ebted to
this one feeliDg-sympathy.a We get
cheertulness, vigor. we scarcely know how
or when, from mere association with our
fellowmen, and from the looks reflected
on us of gladness and enjoyment. We
catch inspiration and power to 60 on,
from human presence ard from cheerful
looks. The workman works with added
energy from having others by.n The full
family circle has a strength peculiar to its
own. The substantial good and the effect
ual relief which men extend to one is trih-
ing. 1t is not by those. but by something
far less costly, that the work is done.
God has insured itby much more simple
machinery.---He has given to the weakest
and poorest the power to contribute large
ly to the common stock of gadness. The
child's smile and laugh are mighty powers
in this world.--When bereavement has
left you desolate, what substantial oenefI
is there which makes condolences accept,
able? 1t cannot replace the loved one'
you have lost. 1t can bestow upon you
nothing permanent. Buta warm hand ha:
touched yours, and its thrill told you thai
there was living response there to your
emotion. One look, one human sigh, ha'
done more for you than the costliest pre-
sent could convey. 3..s .t...-
