It was a br'autiful inorning in the
fali of 1871, that I stood at the Strat
ford depot, patiently awaiting thae ar
fi~d of the morning trailn for Bluffalo.
I confess t'o a slight twinge of terror
on stepping' aboard, as I had road so

In the end I suceceded in obtaining a

At 6.1:0 p.pn., I ),eft by the Centical
R. R.,and ab1*out iidnight arrivyd in

for Ilarrisburg. At break.4ojdgy, I

3 p. in. An almost instant chanige
ef cars and departure, greyente.d mev,
from seeing any of t:e 'i'ghtu. .I
noticed, however, the splendid iron
bridge that spans the Susquehanna at
this'point. -Jn a short ilme th'e red

I, who had been aeouitored to the
bjack and greyish soils of ti.e North
and West, thought I coulld fea'L my
eyes forover, it was such a novelty. .
T1hi wvas tholirst t3outliern'State I
entered. I remembered the old
adage, "A ebse beouth beirspei ks a
wise head," and I kept Ntil, witing
for the fic'o-eater to develop himself.
I found hia much like other mo'rtals;
eagol-y engaged attending, to his own
business, leaving other folks to wind
tieir's.
'Tho picture which my imngination
had formed of tle Southerner from
the reading of the curret literture
of the day, and how far facts tallied
with such; will be fully- detailed iii a
future latt'e'.
About 7 p. m., I drri'ed in !Ihlti
more and getting a cab proceeded to
the Mansion louse. My Mtay until
Monday evening enabled in to take
a partial view of this city. It is a
very handsome city, its publie edifices,
betoken a refined taste. Its elegant
gardens and places of amusement are
numerous. It cat boast of an opera
and two theatres, to one of which I
wended my way, apd saiv, the unri
valled mimic Mirphy shine a: a sita

The harbor wits crowded with ves
sels of all kinds, ahd from tLe im.
menso quantities of flour and tobacco
here awaiting transportation, I should
judge that if equalled, it cannot be
surpassed in its commerce, by any
city in North Atmeric, in tliese staples.
In sight of th Maanuion llouse is the
far famed n-nnument to the iemory
of t~o dead who fell in defense of the
city iIIt apd.13. It is not an
imposing strgetu)ro but is in\genionaly
.onstruceted exhuibitingi tho niames of
the officers and men01 who perished in
defending Fort Mohienry.
Hotels are ilnuerous anid of a high
order, whilat their charges are moder
ate. Thlis was tihe first place I was
waited on -by darkueys. I esgerly
scanned their dark counsteuncnes,to see
whet!ier thuey were clean or dirtv,
but, dear sir, such an attempt to 'a
greenthorn is uledlc. 1 found out
afterwariq however that they sh'ow

By 1 p*. m.- Monday. I was en
board of the steamboat for WVest point

which is the Southern Security Com-.

operated extensively in the South, to
the injury, as fair as our obseivation
gos of every road that has fallen
within its grasp. We. want no better
evidenc, of this fact than the present
market value of the stoek of the Char.
Coltumbila and Augusta Railroad;
B'efore it fell into the possession of
the "Ring" referred to, its stock was
worth' at reiwt che-thl'rd its par value.

In) otr next issue we will refer
again to this subjteh and bring before
the pubhlic other provisions of this
Act that we regard coment ndable
from every point of view.
The New Postal Lawi.
The postal appropiatioan bill,
approved March 3, 1873, contasined
the following clause:
"Provid ed that all ln'ws ard piarts
of' laws pe'titt'ing the trasnstmission
by mail of any free amatter whatever,
bo, and the same are hereby, repealed
from and after Juno 30, 1873."
This abolishes t he frankling privil
ego hteld by Conigress, and so mnany
governmnat oficers...
This abolishes~seotion 35 of the act
of Marchy 3', 1863 : "lnt the puiblishs
era of weekly nowspapcrs may senfd
to each actual s'ubscriber withain thse
county where their papers are p)rintedl
and published, one copy thereof free
of postage."
This abolishes section 45 of the
sameact ."All u..ieh.r of pe.
- .Ami AL A AU A
od ials, magazines and. newspapers,
which slhall not exceed sistoen ounces
in weight, bhall 4. allowed .to 'tter.
change their publications reoipro~lily
free of postsee ; provided, that such
in, terchiangehall be co'niied-to a sin
gle copy of suich publication."
Tile laws remain unchanged which
permit prepay ment of , postage on
newspapers at the office of mailiog or
doivery, at the option. of the sub.
scriber, anI. prepayment by ,pews
dealers "upon their packages as re
ceived."
N o reduction of postage rates. has
been niade. Farnworth's bill passed
the lHom. and failed in the S'ite.
