The Posi- OFFICE NUIsANCE.-The Mayor
or Chief of Police would greatly serve the pub
lie by stationing policeman at the Post Office
at. and for a half hour before, the opening OF
the Eastern mail. The pavement and the de-
livery space the office is crowded by far
from oitierly set of boys, over whom the Post
master can have no control, and whom nothing
but policeman can keep in order. A lady
WHO goes. tll,re is utterly helplessin the crowd.
Many of the owners of lock-boxes also greatly
incommode the public by stopping to read their
correspondence inside the office, evidently la
boring under the deusion that it is country
postoffice, where one may take out his letter
and seat himself Oh the cracker barrel to peruse
it. 1t is to be hoped that some action will be
ia ken in the matter.-Pindicator.
The. postmaster is under obligations to the
indicator for thus calling attention to what is
not only public annoyance, but absolutely a
nuisance. While the noise in the hall of the
post office, eccasioned by humanity persons, is
to the employees. while in the
discharge of their duties, it is none the less a
source of just complaint on the part of respect
ful citizens who attend there awaiting the
opening of the mail. From this time forward
the postmaster shall take such steps as will
summarily put stop to it, respectful requests
to that end heretofore made having proved in
effectual.

A STANTON Boy CONFESsEs TO HIS FAITH
ER.-There is a brace of boys in our city who arc
the idols Of ar admiring fathers heart. They
are named respectively Bob and Henry. Du-
ring the late freeze when the youth of the burg
were wont to indulge in the fascinating amuse-
ment of skating, the old nlan-fearing lest the
-treaeherous ice might engulf one or maybe
both Of these stays to his declining years,-is-
sued his mandamus to the effect that they were,
under no circumstances to venture ON any OF
the ponds, and if this parental fiat was viola
ted in any degree they might look out for pun
shment speedy and condign. Bob and Henry
struggled to obey but the ever recurring sight
Of some eager playfellow bound towards the
forbidden ice, was too strong, and they ignor-
ed the old man and his prohibition and stole
quietly away with their comrades. They ska
ted until dark and returned, and the doting
father met them with his usual affectonate
greeting. The next day he met Bob on the
street and invited him to accompany him home,
and when they got there, he solicited an i'm
mediate interview in the wood-shed. Bob,
greatly surprised, acquesced with some reluc-
lance, ana dICef Spl[lGeu performance OF some
ten minutes duration, in which the old man
sustained the. role Of heavy avenger, and Bob,
the subordinate character Of prosecuted help
essness, the animated co'loqny terminated. He
went down street and met Henry. ''Hen' he
says chow did the Governorfind out about us,
and did he lick your mo-, says Hen, she has
not troubled me. Did he wollop yoa?" 81 should
think he did. Just come down to the stable
and look at my back" "Well, Bob, says Hen.
81 just tell you what it is, don't think we have
been doing the square thing by the old man,
running off skating and playing truant, and
all that sort Of thing, so lust went to him and
confessed it ALL" ."And you say he didn't lam

Hemp sssyell, you see Bob, and here a
sublime sense of virtue irradiated his countc-
E.nancc,) ouly confesSedon you." sob that's
t-how, you only confsssed.on me, ''sand here a
