We shall then expose to sale in Macon, to the highest bidder, in conformity with a late act-of the Gcueral Assembly': All the Town Lots not heretofore disposed of; being upwards atone hundred in number; on the western side of the riven among them are twelve adjoining the river, and a few other uioice lots for business. The residue arc in more retired situations, and gener ally afford good building site's in a pleasant uud grow- ing part of the town. Forty two gardening l&ts of 10 and 20 acres ench; laid out from 1 to 1 1-2 miles distant from the town in two ranges around the Western Common. Also, 28 lots on the Eastern side: that is to say, 4 of twenty, 8 of ten acres, and 111 of one acre each.—These Inst in clude the place somolirfies known as Newtown; and will be sold subject to certain leases from the United States, to expire next January. The residoo of the lands iu the two reserves, nre laid out in tracts of 100. acres, and fractional parts of such tracts. Of these, the uplands will be next offer- ed;the lowest numbers first; beginning with those on the western side. . „ . . , On Wednesday the 22d of October neat, at 11 o’ clock, A.

' The particular numbers that will he sold on each day canhot be specified; but it is intended to put tip the several kinds and descriptions m the outer uere 111 The"Reserves nre generally well watered nnd con- tninsevcral'gnod mill seats. The area ot the whole cannot be exactly known until the i ll . n,ll ."f j ted-but twenlu-onc thousand acres is the estimated quantity contained in both Reserves and Ute ndjoimiis (ructions exclusive of the town rtrveys.

The Post Master General has lately receive cd, with regret, frequent domplaints of, the miv carriage hf newspapers forwarded-in the mail. In many instances tho caukeVof these cum- plaints arc believed to exist in tho priming of fices. Tiie papers have 'hot been carefully put up and plainly directed. But it is feared that at some of tho Pos Offices’-tliere may have been remisstiess in hot haVing ptit hew enve lopes on n.'-vspaper packets where the old'ones had become much worn and defaced,and'somu- tinlcs iff having failed to give the proper direc tion to tho-pa'ckms. To delay fhe ihilivery of a newspaper is made a serious offence by the Post/Office law. Top much attention cannot be paid to this provision by a negfoct of it, a- tiy post master will lose the tOulidcnco .of tlio public and of tho Department. Where failures are complained of, tho post mastery at whose offtc- (lie packots are m^-.Iud, is Requested to obtain astateiiiCpt from tho prin* ter of tiie diffeiunt 'packets turwnrtled by mail, and tho uumber 'of papers in each.* Occasion ally, die p ickets deposited may be compared with this stiu-mmir, and any bun&iun detected^ Postmusteis wiiofiil to adopt titis suggcqtiua* ■nay be jus.ly chargeable with negligence ami belli rcsjionstbie tor all failures. .

But e’er I had fully revelled in the fond delight, a smarting sensation oh my lips destroyed .lie delusion, the too near approach of the fire of my cygar to my lips awakened me. P Tiffs delightful dream, short as it was, has recalled to memory, many who, after a few ovemful years in this world, have passed to n- nother and a brighter sphere; With the ma terials thus afforded, I (iropose to furnish you with an occasional essay, which should you consider thorn worthy a place in your useful paper, may'probably afford some amusement to vour readers, ns it still the humble writer to re cord them on paper, at times, which but for this, might probably bo less usefully employed.— Should this be tbo case, the Aishes and object of tho humblo writer will be full.v accomplished. FROM THE SACO PALLADIUM. TWENTY-SIXTH OF JUNE. The singular idea, that the Waters of th» Ocean poiwess same mysterious virttlo on tbe 2Gdi Of this mouth,* prevails pretty extensively in this vicinity. Saco beach becomes, on that day, like the pool' of Bethsaida, thronged with invalids of all ages and* complexions— the blind, bait, withered, a depeudent on some kind friend to plunge them in the briny wave, and tho more timid sex, yielding themselves into the hands of husbands, fathers or brothers for [OS*a» vs . Where papers ate nut tp.kert ou: ofthfi office y tbe persons to whom tlyy nro directed, nn* mediate notice should he given, to the primer, and on his failing to pay tbe postage, the pa-» pers may bo sold for it, as provided in tbo Post Offic&lnw. On sumo .publications it may hd difficult to determine whether newspaper or pamphlet postage should bo charged, Somo newspapers are juibiishcd in .pamphlet form, ns ‘Niles’ Register,’'others in ino quarto (bun, ui the ‘American Farmer.’ When a paper ii published periodically tin n Ifiige sheet, in tin) • cnrnmoh form of u newspaper, it should be so considered. Wliero tho form is different, th$ subject matter must dete.-mirte its character. If it contain leading articles of intelligence, a sum mary of political ‘eyents or what is ganorally termed"news, or is published weekly dr oftener, it should be called a newspaper. Advertise ments are generally contained in newspapers; though seldom if ever, in {lamphlets. Ill case where strong doubt remains what character to gjvo the publication, it would be well to charge tlio most favorable postage, un til the decision of tbe Postmaster Genera! shall be obtained. Where a greater weight is franked th in the Ian- authorize*, postage should be charged lor .the excess. If the packet contain hand bills; or other articles, which cannot be called news papers, or pamphlets, tho excess should be charged by the ounce, as for letter postage. But if the exce: 5 consist of newspapers, or pamphlets, they should be charged as such. Every thing sent in the mail, width does not Come under the denomination of newspapers oi pamphlets, is Subject by law to letter postage. The Postmaster Gcueral oriioiiis the utmost vigilance and impartiality on aft Postmasters id tlm performance of their duties. And lie hopes tq witness the beneficial result! of tlit-ir zealous efforts, by the Jiublic confidence reposed in iliu safety of the rdail and (be fidelity of its ageuts. ® Tho Hon.
