This mail leaves Oedartown, via Cave Spring, thence to Tecttmseh, thence to Esom Hill, Little Creek and then to Tallapoosa. Several months ago complaint came to this office; many even stopping their paper. Since that time at least two dozen, have stopped taking the paper—not on aocount of any fault, found with the paper, but because of the irregulari ty of receiving it. In self defence the publisher began to look around for a remedy. The thought of a pe tition wus entertained, so in January Inst we wrote to Dr. Felton as to the udvisubilly of having tiie mail route changed so as to begin at Oedartown.
