BY JULIAN A. SELBY. The smallest post office in the world in- kept in a barrel, which. swings from the outermost rook of the mountains! overhanging the Straits of Magellan, opposite Terra del Faego. Ever; pass ing ship opens it to place letters in or take them out. Every ship undertakes to forwari! all tha Int&arfl In it that it f? possible for. them to transmit. It hangs there by ita?rou chain, beaten and bat? tered by the winds and storms, but no looked and barred office on land is more secure. It is not .in the traok of mail robbers. The Memphis and Charleston Bail road was turned over to the directors of I the company on the 1st of April?the latter agreeing to relieve the Southern Seoarity Company from the payment of | the 9160,000 doe for rent of the road, inasmuch as they saw no prospect of ever being able to recover it. The road will hereafter be managed by the old | company. The destruction of trees in England is ] attracting some discussion. A distin? guished member of tbe Cheshire Board of Agriculture, at a recent meeting, ex? pressed the opinion that if the practice | of destroying trees and hedges went on at the present rate there would be no j Bbade left, and "the cows wonld have to | carry parasols." . - A lady correspondent of a Western! journal thinks there ought to be a statute of limitation against the re-appearance1 of long lost husbands.
