case,a separate apartment for tiie assorting and safe- j
keeping of the mail is to be provided hy the contractor,
under tue directionof the department.
5. In all cases there is to be u forfeiture of the pay of |
the trip, w hen the trip i-not run; a forfeiture of at least
one-fourth part of it when the running oi arrival is so far
behind th in as to lose the connexion w ith a depending
mail; and h forfeiture of a doe proportion of it when a
grade of service is r* ndered interior to that in the con
tract. These forfeitures may be increased into high
penalties of higher mount, according to the natute or
frequency of the failure and the importance of the mail.
ti. Fines will be imposed, unless the deliuq*. ncy besa J
tisfactorily explained in due time, for failing > take from,

vey a mail by any coach, railroad car, or steamboat, which
liie contractor regularly runs on the route beyond lice
specified number of trips in the contract, and for not ar
riving at she tune sit; and for setting up or running an
express to transmit commercial intelligence in adv ance
of ihe nn il, ap nulty will be exacted equal to a quarter’s
pav
7. The Postmaster General may annul the contrnrt for
repeated failures; for violating the post office laws; for
disobeying the instructions of the depaitment; for refus
ing to discharge a carrier when required by the depart
ment; for assigning the contract without the consent of

or place a higher or different grade of service on the
route, he allowing one month's extra pay on the amount
dispensed w ith.
9. The payments will be made through drafts on post
offices or otherwise, after the expiration of * acif quarter,
saV in February, ill ay, August, and November.
10. Thedisiaiici.s are given acccordid’g to the best in
formation; but no increased pay will be allowed, should
they prove to lie greater than is advertised, if the places
are correctly named.
11. The Postmaster General is prohibited by law frein
knowingly making a contract for the trasportation of the
mail with any person who shall have entered into any
combination, or propose*! to enter into any combination,
to prevent the making ofany bid for a in.til contract by
any other person or persons, or who shall have made any
agreement, or shall have given or performed or promised
to give or perforin any considt ration to do, or not to do
anv tiling whatever l<> induce any other person riot to bid
for a mail contract- Particular attention is called to the
28th section of the act of l»-6, prohibiting combinations
to prevent bidding'.
eg. .t bid received after time, to wit: the 'oth March
next, at 9 a.in.,or withouttne guaranty required bylaw,
or that combines several routes in one sum or compensa
tion, cannot be considered in competition with a regular
proposal not adjuged to be extravagant.
13. A bidder may offer, where the tr. importation Called
for in the advert iseinent is difficult, or impr atiea tile at cer
tain seasons, to substitute e uinferior mode ofeonveyance,
or tit intermit service a speefied number of days, w eeks,
or mouths He may propo eto omit an office riiat is in *c
ccssible, or is not on t e stage road, the railway, or at ;i
steam boat b.ndimr. ns the case may be; or ae may offer
to substitute an inferior mode of supply in such eases
He may propose different (lavs and hours of depai ture
and arrival, provided no mure running time is asked, and
it is obvious that no mail connexion or other public ac
commodation i< prejudiced. He may ask for more run
ning time to the trip .during a specified number of days,
at certain seasons ot peculiarly bad reads; but beyond
these changes, a proposal for service different from the
advertisement will prevent its being considered in com
petition with a regular bid riot set aside for extravagance;
and where a bid contains any of the above alterations,
their disadvantages will be estimated in comparing it
vvilli other proposals.
1 4. There should be but one route hid for in a proposal.
!S. The route, the service, tin* v early pay, the bidder’s
name and residence, and the name of each member of the
firm, where a company offers, should ho distinctly stated
—also the mode o*' conveyance, if a higher mode titan on
horseback is intended,
16. The bid should be sent under sen],addressed tothe
First Assistant Postmaster General, with “Mail Proposals
in the State of written on the face of the letter ;
and should lie despatched in tune to be receeved by or
before the 10th March next, at 9 o’clock, a. in.
17. The contracts are to be executed by or before the
Ist July' next.
18. Postmasters at offices situated upon or near rail
roads, hut more than eighty rods from a depot, will. Im
mediately after the Ist April next, report that fact to tin
department, stating their exact distance from the railroad
depot, and how otherwise supplied vv ith the mail, to ena
ble tlte Postmaster General to direct the proper supply
to be made from the railroad by mail messengers, from
and after the Ist July next.
19 Under the act ol’3d March. 1845. the route is to be
let to the lowest bidder, tendering sufficient guaranties
for faithful performance, w ilhout reference to Hie mode
of transportation than maybe necessary to provide for
the due celerity, certainty, and security of such trans
portation.
W hen the lowest bid proposes n mode of conveyance
that is inadequate for the route in respect to the certain
ty, security, and celerity' of the mail* aside (rom any ac
commodation for trav el, it will not be entitled to the
route
20. When the bid does not name a mode ofeonveyance,
it w ill be taken and understood to lie for the low esi mode of
conveyance to wit: on horebaek. When it proposes to
according to the advertisement, and no mode of
conveyance is stated fur the route in the advertisement,
it w ill be considered as offering only for horseback con
veyance.
21. Since the passage es the net of March 3, 1845, a
new description of bid bus been received. It specifies no
inode of conveyance, lint engages to carry tb* 1 mail with
certainty, celerity, and security, using the terms of the
law'. These bids are called, from the manner in which
they are designated onthe hooks of the department, ‘ star
bid.” ft hies been decided, after mature consideration,
that a bid proposing a specific inode of conveyance of as
high a grade as two horse coach transportation i- to he
preferred to th*-star bid. The experience of the depa t
mont enables it to lay down the following rules, viz;
When (be mail on the route is not mi large as to require
two horse coach conveyance. a star bid. if the lowest, v\ ill
be preferred to the specific bid.
22. Wh**n the mails are of such size and weight as to
render it necessary or expedient, in reference to them
alone, to provide two-horse coach convey ance, the spe
cific bid. though the highest w ill be preferred to the star
bid, to the extent of a moderate difference in the compen
sation, in ease the difference is not such ns to interfere
with the policy of the new law, which looks to a reduc
tion in the cost of transportation. Exceptions, however,
may be allowed where the star bid if made by the present
owner of the stock onthe route, and it is manifest thatthe
reasons for preferring the specific bid do not exist in bis
case.
23. On routes of the liss'iest class, where f.nir-horse
coach or steamboat transportation is required by the size
and importance of the mails, the preference for the spe
cific bid wi 11 be, if necessary carried to a greater extent
of difference than on ’he inferor roach route bject,
however, to (he exeeptions above stated,
24. A modification of a bid, in any of its esa-! *, - i tenn
is tantamount to a new* bid, and cannot be receiv ed, so a.-
to interfere w ith regular competition, after the last hour
set for receiving bids. JOHNSON.

With this view, we shall draw for our literary depart

and entertain the mind, without offending the taste or
corrupting the morals of our readers.
Pains will be taken to give the latest uitelii-renoe on all

of Congress—thus rendering the “Weekly Union” a |
most valuable channel of informal ion to all classes of i
our country. But, to remunerate us for this enterprise, 1
i-.n extensive subscription list is absolutely iadispensa- I

We seize this opportunity to add that some delay has j
taken place iu {rutting our paper to press, which has 1

Dyspepsia, and later Complaint, .\ervous Diseases ,
Dropsical Swellings, Constitutional Disorders and
diseases originating from a depraved or Impure
suite of the Blood or other fluids of the body.
The proprietor of this Alterative would most re
spectfully assure the public that he lias not offered
this preparation to their notice without due reflec
tion. and < lose and rigid study, nor until after
twelve years’ experience had manifested its great
superiority over every other article of the kind, —
and he now recommends it with confidence, fully
believing that the above combination of medicine
i will effectually eradicate from the system a class
: of disease some of w hich have heretofore been cou
| sidered incurable.
He lias prescribed it in almost every variety of
disease and w ith unparalleled success, especially
in cutaneous affections, cancerous, scrofulous and
scorbutic diseases, and diseases originating from
obstruction or enlargement of the glands or impuri
ty of the blood.
Cancer ami Cancerons Tumors.
lie has used this preparation in upwards oftwen
ty well defined cases of cancer and cancerous la
i mors, and in every case but one with perfect ami
! entire success.
Hronchocele or Coitre, (Swelled Neck.)
He has prescribed it in over a hundred cases of
goitre,and it has never failed in a single instance
to completely remove the disease. Nut a solitary
case of failure. All were cured.
The success he has met with in curing broncho
cele and cancerous affections lias convinced him
that these dangerous and horrible diseases may bo
removed with as much certainty as Fever and
Ague. He does not wish to be understood as say
ing that they can be cured as so&n as Fever and
Ague, but with as much certainty; and further, that
be has good reason for believing that this prepara
tion will not only i ure these diseases when formed,
but that it destroys the virus or poisonous principle
lurking in the system, from which that peculiar
class of diseases, as well as that of scrofula emanate.
Scrofula—King's Evil.
This preparation has been used in numerous case*
of Scrofula, King’s Evil, and scrofulous swellings,
and always with the most deci led success.
Nkiu Diseases.
He has prescribed it iu a great variety of cutane
ous affections, and found it successful in curing salt
rheum, or tetter, bib s, blotches, pimples,morphew
and jaundiced skin. Ac.
Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint.
It has been used in numerous cases of liver nr*s»
plaint and Dyspepsia, and with the happiest effect.
Tic-Douloureux.
It has been used in several cases of
and in every case it was successful.
llheumatism.
This preparation has been prescribed in a great
many cases of chronic rhenmaism, and in every
case in which it was used until the system became
affected by the medicine, the disease was removed*
IwOllt.
A number of cases of gout have been cured
this preparation, in one of these cases, the man
had been afflicted with it so severely for thirteen
years as to entirely disable him from business, and
for five months immediately previous to his taking
the Alterative he had been confined to Ids room;
but before be bad finished the third bottle, he was
enabled to walk about the streets and soon after re
turned to his business, from which he had so long
been excluded by his afflictions.
Dropsical Swellings,
This medicine increases the powers of digestion,
excites the absorbents into healthy exercise, by
which watery or calcareous depositions, and ail
unnatural enlargements are reduced, it imparts
tone and vitality to the whole system, removing
_;.i.—i ......oid iieauac-ues.guuiiness, wa^j er j nj |
pains and nervous affections.
In fact, in every ease where the medicine has
. been taken fur some time, no matter for wb.i pur
pose, the general health of the patient has always
been improved by it.
In conclusion, the proprietor would saythatsome
of the most astonishing cases of skin diseases, can
cer, bronchocele, ami scrofula, have been cured tty
this medicine, that have ever been recorded; but
want of room in this sheet precludes their publica
tion at this time.
CANCER.
An interest in" rase cured hy Jayne's Alterative,
In the spring of 1831. a cancerous tumor appear
ed In the right breast of .Mrs. Phoebe, wife of Peter
Stretch, of Salem, N. J. It was examined by many
Physicians, ami was considered by all as cancerous,
and besides bore all the characteristic marks of
one. All probable means of removing it were, used
without the slightest benefit. It continued to in
crease both in size and painfulness, until all hope
of saving her life, but by a painful operation, was
abandoned, w hich, after a consultation of eminent
Physicians, was performed, Jan. Ist, 183:1. hy Dr.
John Rhea Barton, assisted by Dr. Redman, live
proprietor.and twoothermedical gentlemen. The
whole and entire right breast was removed, and sif
ter examination of the tumor, was proaonm ed hy
all present a cancer of the most malignant charac
ter. In about three months, after enduring incredi
ble sufferings. she was enabled, though broken m
spirit, to get about again. Bhe remained feeble,
j and her general l/ealtli was exceedingly l-acf, as in<-
I J e ed it had been for several years lie tore. In lh«r
spring of 1837, upwards of five years after her hteasß
had be'“n removed, a painful tumor made ics ap
pearance on the right side, immediately over the
part formeiJv occupied hy the nipple of the right
breast, previous to its removal. This tumor steadi
ly increased fur several months, and became sr»
painful as to deprived her of rest. The glands un
der the right arm were enlarged; and scirrhus, anil
a hard, irregular, and ai times painful tumour, ap
peared in the left breast. No operation could B'#vw
arrest Ihe disease. Indeed lit r whole body appear
ed to be a mass of disease. Her case was consid
ered hopeless. She was of a very' scrofulous habit,
both her parents having died of Pulmonary con
sumption. The experiment was now made will*
this Alterative, it was at first given in small
i doses, three times a day. and the doses very gradu
i ally, hut steadily increased daily, as long as she
look it. which was about six months, and the skir.
over and around the tumour was wet night and
morning with a strung solution of lodine and Hy
driodate Potash. The tumour continued increase
insr in sire for about six weeks, and was at times
very painful, when the pain suddenly ceased allot
getber, and the tumour swelled out at the base,and
became soft, and then began to diminish, and con
tinued gradually decreasing until every vestige of
disease was removed. The tumour in her left
j breast, and those in her right axilla were also dis
] persed. No cancerous or scrofulous tumours ever
appeared afterwards; and her general health, which
! had been so bad for fourteen years as to make life a
burthen, was effectually and permanently restored,
The proprietor is in possession of the diseased
breast, and those who chouse may examine it. He
would also say that lie could mention over a dozen
cases equally interesting, wherein his Alterative
has subdued cancerand cancerous tumours, but he
has not room hereto record them.
Mrs. Sarah \ oung, of Quinton’s Bridge, N. J.,
had a goitrous tumour on the left side of her wind
pipe,a.- large as the half of an orange, w hich was
cured by using ibis Alterative for about four
months.
Miss R S , South Fourth-street, Phila
delphia, was also cured of an enlargement of the
throat, which filled the entire spaee between the
chin and breast-boric, and extended around ou
each side of her neck to behind her ears, ami from
her ears to her shoulders, and produced awful de
formity. It commenced growing when she was
but five years old, and continued gradually to in
crease until she was nineteen, at which tipie she
commenced using this Alterative, which she took
for seven months, which entirely reduced the en
largement; and she has now as smooth and pretty
a neck as can be found. The proprietor is not at
liberty to give her name in print, hut w ill refer per
