WaIss1NG OF NEWspApEe MA1Ls.-In re-
gard to the question where newspaper and
other pninted matter must be weighed for
prepayment Of postage, under the new law,
on and after January !, 1t may be stated by
authority of the Post-ofice Department that
the general rule requiring the weighing to
take place at the post.ofice where the mast
ter "a mailed will be modified, for the convs-
nlenae of. publishers, in any locality whore
it is shown to be desirable that the weighing
should be permitted elsewhere than ut the
post Office. It is understood that New York
newspaper publishers prefer the weighing
to be done at the post-ofice, while in Chi.
eago and some other cities 1t is desired to
have printed matter received and weighed
at the railway depot. Each application for 3
modification of the rule will be decided on
its individual merits.

The Bolivar bulletin. [volume] (Bolivar, Hardeman County, Tenn.) 1865-1888, 1874-11-27
Parental Interference.

We all know how it Jared with the
bean that, after being planted, was dug
up every morning to see if it had begun
to grow, and which, after having made
a brave struggle for life and got its
head above ground, was declared out Of
order, and ruthlessly pulled up and
turned upside down. Much of our in
reference with children is no less i'm
pertinent, and In its results no less mis-
chievous. Nature abhors meddling TO
reverent cooperation she yields her
happiest results; but she will not be
diverted from her purpose by your
homilies, nor submit her plans for yOur
revision. Handmaiden of the great
architect. she never loses sight of the
original intention. If you thwaTt her,
it is at your peril, and she leaves on
your hands the work you have spoiled.
The child in his normal condition is an
embodied Interrogation. He cannot
wait for the eyes alone TO report the
objects about him every finger-tip is
pressed into the service and made to
convey tidings to the eager intelligence.
The little creature is overwhelmed with
impressions, stunned by the music Of
tbe spheres, blinded by excess of light.
His greatest need is a wise and tender
Interpreter some one to walk beside
him and explain the significance of
what he sees and hears, to distinguish
between the important and the unim-
portant, the high and the low, the near
