To TIE PUBLIc.-Tho citizens who
come for the night mails, as well as myself, have
been very much annoyed BY the rude conduct Of
halfgrown boys in the post Office. lam not com.
PEELED TO keep the post oilloo open for the night
mail. do II to accommodate the public, and IL
.hcrc is a repetition Of this conduct after this
notice, win elise the Office at o'clock, p. NJ o.,
as authorized by Law. 7. A. GAULIN, P. NJ.
1t is TO be hoped that the above notice will have
the desired effect. 1t is certainly great conye-
nienco to our ctiaens to have the Office open after
the arrival Of the night mail, and lot Of rude
boys should not be allowed to deprive us Of the
convenience. If nothing else viii abato the nui-
sance, would not visit Of Constable Mcclellan
be benelcal2 If certain ordinance, passed by
our borough authorities about ten years ago, were
put in force, disailowing boys to be on the street
after eight o'clock in the evening, 1t would GER
tainly be productive Of much good, not only as
far as the post Office is concerned, but FOR tho good
Of the town generally. There is a certain lot Of
hslfgrown boys 30 proving about our streets
nightly, the parents Of whom either through ig-
norancc or the neglect OF moral duty, allow
them to DO SO, and ought to be responsible for
their conduct. Boys who receive their education
on the streets, at an hour Of aight when most
people are 10 bed, seldom prove to be very orna-
mental to the community in after lie.

AT the Communipaw Abattoir. 100000
hogs, 520, 900 sheep, and $1,000 bullocks
were slaughtered last year, involving finan-
cial operations aggregating over 100000
900. The abattoir is owned and its bust
ness is conducted by the New Jersey Stock
Yard and Market Company, of which s.
w. Allcrton is President, and Isaac Frees.
Superintendent. The company was organ
lied in May. 1866, with paid up capital OF
$500, 900, and also a bonded debt of $780,
600, which has been since liquidated. It,

directly opposite Bedloe's Island and about
one mile South of Jersey City They are
all of wood and are adjacent to extensive
cattle yards contiguous to the tracks of the
Central Railroad of New Jersey. The main
building is three stories high, and covers an
area 500 by 100 feet. Its two lower stories
are used for the reception of live hogs, and
are divided into pens designed to hold from
100 tc 400 hogs each, or a total of 10000.
The upper story is divided into pens for
live sheep. An adjoining two story struc-
turc, $50 by 100 feet, constitutes the slaugh-
ter house for hogs and bullocks, the latter
being slaughtered on the first floor, and the
former in the upper story. \ two story
extension by GO feet, constitutes the
slaughter house for sheep. The number Of
hogs received weekly ranges from 1900 to
80, 600, and of sheep from G,000 to 1900,
all of which are slaughtered ut the abattoir,

locks received per week, only about 900
are slaughtered the remaining 1000 being
sent to the slaughter houses Of New York
and its vicinity. Those slaughtered at the
abattoir are principally sold at Washing
ton Market.
The 100000 received at the abattoir last
year were transported by the Central Rail
road of New Jersey. All came from the
west-Pittsburgh, Chicago, Cincinnati, and
st. Louis being the principal points of ship
mcnt. Mr.. Freeze states that tie hogs
are transported in open cars containing
about 100 each, and that they were well
fed on the way. The average time for
transportation from st. Louis is seven days,
during which the hogs are unloaded ana
fed and watered at four stations: Inc umc
from Chicago or Cincinnati is SIX days, ana
there are two feeding stations on each
route. From Pittsburgh, 10 hours are re-
quircd, and there are no feeding stations
on the way. The cost OF transportation
| averages about $40 per carload, or $50
| per cwt., including depreciation from loss

are always healthy and in good condition
when received and that their mortality en-
route does not exceed more than one in
