BY JULIAN A. SELBY The Pulpit Tell.?The habit of shouting bo loud aa to offend the ear is perhaps equally objectionable, while a sudden transition from one extreme to the other is sufficiently artificial to comprehend the evils of both. But there is another and agrowing fashiou, so vicious, so offensive to good taste, so destructive to spiritual emotions, and so repellant to serious contempla? tions, that a public speaker has need only to hear himself as others bear him, to feel conscience-smitten for disturbing public worship. It is the abrupt transition from low to high ?not mere hallooing?that expression is quite too tame, but an instantane? ous, Btartling yell, which would drown the sound of a savage war-whoop. Let no one think this is caricature oi what is 8ometimeB witnessed in public speakers. It would be difficult to se? lect langnage forcible enough to make the description hyperbolical. If there be any who, not having witnessed an instance of this miscalled oratory, are unable to recognize this photograph, let him imagine himself seated in a house of worship in a devout frame of mind, listening with absorbed atten? tion to an instructive discourse, in harmony with his serioas contempla? tions, delivered in a tone of voice adapted to the sentiment and to the awakened feelings of the congregation, when, instantly, as with an electric shock, the speaker uttera a yell that falls painfully on the dullest ear. The rupture of a water-spout would not more surely discharge its contents than such an explosion would empty the mind of all serioos thoughts. [T/te Evangelist.

Winters ?The postmaster at New York has issued a circular which contains many valuable hints to letter-writers. Considering the fact that there are always two par? ties to n correspondence, these hints will bo useful to persons in the city and out of it. The substance of the rules are, therefore, given for the benefit of all concerned. They arc ns follows: 1. All mail matter directed to mini bercd boxes will be delivered through those boxes. 2. Letters directed to city addresses, street and number, will, if recognized by tho assorting clerks as intended for box-holders, be delivered through the boxes. If not so recognized, they will bo delivered through the. carriers. .'J. Mail matter addressed without box number or street number, will bo de? livered as expeditionsly as possible, either through boxes, general delivery or carrier. Correspondents should direct their letters plainly, correctly and fully, and those who reut boxes would greatly facilitate the busiuess if they will print conspicuously on their letter headings, airculars, bill-heads, curds and enve? lopes a request to correspondents to address letters to their respectivo box numbers, and if those who receive mail matter by carriers would direct their correspondents to includo in all cases tho proper streets and numbers in tho addresses of all letters.
