If subscribers neglect or refuse to take their newspapers from the offices to which theyiare di rected, they are held responsible until they have settled the bills and ordered them discontinued. 4.

The courts have decided that refusing to take newspapers from the office, or removing and leav ing them uncalled for, is prima facie evidence of intentional fraod. 6. The United States Courts have also repeated ly decided, that a Postmaster who neglects to per form his doty of giving reasonable notice, as re quired by the Post Office Department, of the neg lect of a person to take from the office newspapers addressed to him, renders the Postmaster liable to the publisher for the subscription price. Weather—Health—Crops. During the past week we have enjoyed pleasant weather, with occasional showers ard a constant breeze. Thermometer ranging from $0 to 86 de grees, extremes. The corn, cain, and potatoe crops were nevermore abundant. The cotton crop will fall short abuut one third of former anticipations. The health of this country continues good, and from enquiries made, we can hear of no sickness, allhough there may be some slight cases not worth reporting. - .The game of President making “goes brave- ly.' on,” and it is the bane of on Government.

Ambition and money make common caose, and poor, mean, decrepid principle—almost out of fashion—can not win a fight against the combined powers of the parse and the sword. “Coming evenU casts their shadows before,” Mr. New Ad' We ask attention in this! if.

The ground once pressed by the feet of Solomon, and David, and Christ, now echoea to the tread of Moslem Janissary and the driveling Dervish ; while the Jew is cowering in obscure places, the Moslem struts with the air of one who treads on thrones; while the Christian begs permission to kneel at the tomb of his Saviour, the Turk disdainfully proclaims himself monarch of all a he sarveya. While the “Holy Sepulchre” is nominally in the bands of the Christian, Turkish soldiers keep guard at the door, and a Turkish Pasha keeps the key. “Fraid.” An old sea-captain, who had retired from ser vice aod was living on a farm, had a harumscarum nephew with him. He could neither frighten nor drive the said nephew to do anything in its proper time. Among the rest he never could get him to drive up the cows to milk till after dark—he had to drive them from a back pasture, undergrown with sugar brush. Finally the captain asked the lad if he was not afraid to go through the woods io ; the dark. “Fraid!—whai is that ? I never seen a fraid,” replied the boy. “Well, nevermind; you will see one some of these nights if you do not get the cows up before dark,” said the captain, meaningly.

Its writer speaks “by authority,” and the tacu stated may be considered, in every respect, reliable They speak volumes in favor of the present mini agemeut of this great State work: “It is gratifying to ri» to bo able to sty to , 00 that the W. &.

The captain went into the woods, where there was a big log by tho side of the path. Going to the further end of it, he wound the sheet round him, got upon it, and stood still, the monkey assuming a similar position upon the other end of the log. In this position the parlies stood when the boy came along with the cows. They shied a little upon seeing the ghosts, which caused tho boy to look ahead. “Hallo, what is that?” he shouted; “I think it’s a fraid !** And then espying the monkey, lie sang out, “if there ain’t two fraids—a big fraid and little fraid!” small for Che serious consideration we gave it, and at the same lime said we had no objection either to Americus or Morgan. We cannot see how the Argus could have designedly so mis- represented us, for it is too palpable to mislead any one, aod we accord to the Editor the capa city to do better in this line of business, should his inclinations so lead him. We are also charged with “disregarding the sentiments or claims of every other locality than Albany, eith er as to men, times, conventions or any thing else.” Any impartial person who has road our paper will bear witness to the injustice of this This caused the captain to look around, and he accusation.

We are also charged with claiming for Albany both “the Judge and Soli citor General.” The troth will vindicate ns against setting np any such pretension, and if we bad, we are entitled to the respectful silence of the Argus. Having enjoyed a monopoly in this line for the present official term, it treats with contempt the ide.a that the same blessing should follow any one else. Wo endeavor to do justice to all, aod leave onjuat discrimination to others. We also defer to those who shall be clothed with the responsibility to make the se lections. One thing is clear, the . Argus, has seen fit not to answer onr positions,, bnt has re sorted to an attempt to discredit ns. It would have been more satisfactory to die public to show wherein we were wrong.

His rival, Senator Hunter, not to be out done, has lowered his Southern crest, while his right hand man, Pryor, is vieing with the “Richmond Enquirer’* in its appeals for Southern submission. Jefferson Davis takes a tour to the North—all Boston is in ecstacies at his Union notions, and Portland pulls off her hat to his nationality. What else could Portland do when be told them he knew Prentiss? Mr. Orr’s elevation to tho Speaker*! chair, is very encouraging even to South Caro lina, and Senator Hammond is taken with a love for the Union, that would refresh a Boston federalist. And the “Charleston Mercury’* al ways ready to give the alarm, sees destruction in Jef. Davis’“4th July,” but is as calm as a May morning to Hammond’s Beech Island. Gov Cobb pacifies himself with an occasional letter to some Northern mass meeting, but is making no fuss. His schedule has been before the public a great while, and he will run it as long as there is road and steam. It is the still sow that gets all the wash. “Old Hickory” had some influence in the selection of his successor. Why may not “Old Buck” follow in the foot steps of a predecessor so illustrious?

Of this number 154 will be required for a majority, and of the 306 electoral votes, 120 will belong to the Slave Slates and 186 lo the Free Slates.
