A Graceful Act,

For many years Mr.. J. W. Elston, OF
Haught0n, has been the postmaster OF
that thriving town, giving always
universal satisfaction, and having the
entire confidence Of the citizenship.
There is little question bat that he
could have retained the position under
Democratic or Republican admiuistra-
tons as long US he desired to retain it.
which would have been during his
natural lifetime perhaps but for little
incident which occurred recently.
Learning by the mysterious gTaDcvine
route that Mrs. Cornell, an cstin-
able widow, would accept the position,
he quietly sent in his resignation to
the proper authorities, strongly re-
commencing therein Mrs. Cornell :
name for the position, and at once be-
gan circulating q petition among the
citizens of Haughton, requesting THO
postofiice department to appoint her.
This was graceful, chivaIrou9 &C
on the part of Mr.. EIston, which will
no doubt, be duly appreciated by tn
i many friends Of the lady.
