Tho Now Post0hice.

Yesterday morning the postoflice
was removed from the old building on
the corner of Houston and Main
streets, to the new building Oh Main
street, opposite Works livery stable.
The old rickety fixtures were used in
place ofnew ones, which should have
been obtained. Colonel Stone made a
proposition to the government to fur.
nish new fixtures out and ont, and it
should have been accepted, or some
other arrangements made for them.
The fixtures have not all been adjusted
get. The postoffice will be thrown
open to the public this morning. The
location Is good one, being rs
convenient to the business and the
public generally rs could have been
selected. The new building Is spa
clous, affording ample room, and is
thoroughly lighted. The public gener-
ally are much pleased with the move,
and 1t Is to be hoped that it will not
be long before the old boxes and fix
lures will he replaced by new ones.

He had full sized head and month
but the remainder of his body was like
that of mere babe in size but his

but will just raise himself right up BY
his legs alone, unaided by bis hands.
He is very agile. being able to twist or
