Postmaster Smith received a note from

reason why the route should not be
dropped He replied by giving several
very excellent reasons why it should
be continued, and nothing has since
been heard. Failure to appoint car
rier at the usual time is no doubt re.
sponsible for the revival Of the matter.

Others of Rochester, whittier she was

formation, preventing the natural move

tents of the canal had consolidated at
one portion, distending the walls to such
an extent that pocket had been form
ed, into which particles had slowly &C
cumulated making solid mass, which
was supposed TO have been an internal
growth. The girl has withstood three
operations, the last one removing the
contents of this pocket which weighed
thirteen pounds Two more operations
are necessary, and her many friends,
with those in charge OF the case, are
anxiously awaiting the results. Thus
far she has passed through these or
deals better than was anticipated, and
Rochester physicians call her a living
curiosity. Her brother came home on
Monday, her mother and sister remain.
