our old friend Mr.. Findlsy will be ap-
pointed Postmaster. II this office is
established it will supply a want long
felt by the young ladies of Panaca and
the blcods of Phoebe. As it is now the
Papacans have to go to Bullionville. q
mile and half distant. for their mail
matter, SO when young lady's big
brother gets letter for her from Phoebe
he opens and reads il and then gives it
to the "old man." Then when the gal
liant Piocher goes to Panaca to see his
little darling" expecting that she will
meet him at the garden gate with opened
arms and that he will press her to his
bosom with raptures of celestial bliss and
again and again sip the honey from her
ruby lips; but alas for the folly OF ex-
pectstions. for he is doomed to sad dis
appointment, and instead OF meeting bis
sweetheart, he no sooner alights from the
buggy, when there arises from behind
the bushes his girls father, her brothers,
their cousins, and all the young men Of
the village, who bounce upon the young
man and club him most severely, break.
ing every bone in his body, then they
load him into his buggy and tell him to
go and never return any more. With O
postoffice at Panaca the young ladies
can call and get their own letters, the
fathers and big brothers would not know
on what days the girls lovers would arrive
and would 60 out into the fields to work.
Yes, BY all means. let the Government
establish postoffice at Panaca forth
