ONE OF THE FEOPLE. FOR THE TIMES AND SENTINEL. Our Postal System. Messrs. Editors : Permit me to call attention, through your deservedly popular journal, to a subject in which very many of your readers are deeply interested, and which, through them, is of no mean importance to you. I allude to the present dilatory system of trans mitting tlie mails through our section of the country. If I understand the object of establishing offices, ap pointing Postmasters, and farming out mail routes, it is to accommodate the people, and to increase their facili ties for intercommunication. Many of the offices, I know, are not lucrative. They scarcely pay for the time they consume. Yet, they are sought after with avidi ty, as sinecures to give a semblance of employment to lazy governmental appendages, or on account of tho at traction which they possess for frequenters of cross-road doggeries, or country stores. It matters not what be the occasion for seeking thesu posts, every incumbent should consider himself as truly an officer of the gov ernment as the highest dignitary that assists in the ad ministration of its affairs. And in this view, he ought to feel himself as sacredly bound to discharge its duties, he they onerous or trivial, as if the very salvation of the commonwealth depended upon Iris punctual and undevi ating performance of them. That the most culpable negligence prevails in reference to these duties, I am firmly persuaded. The facts lam willing to submit.— Takes single instance—between Tuskeg.e in Alabama, and Marianna in Florida, there plies a regular tri-weekly Hack Line. These coaches purport to carry the malls, j The time nebeesarily consumed in the transmission of i mails by the direct route, cannot, by any possibilities. 1 aside from shameful negligence, occupy mojo than five \ days. It should take hut four. Now, 1 have in my i and, a letter mailed in one of these places, and received i at the other I I days afterwards. How can this be ac counted for if tho officers do their duty ? Did the let ter come by Columbus ? Then it should take only four days. Did it go round by Montgomery to get to Tus kegee? Five days ought to suffice for this unnecessarily eircuitus route. Where did it loiter during tho nine or j ten leisure days ? Whose fault is it ? I confess I can ! put but one construction upon the facts. There is a j blameable want of punctuality or of attention to duty somewhere. I would say nothing if this were a sin- : gle instance. Hut it is tho constant rule, and not the j exception. Post Offices and Mail Routes managed in tills way are hut public tantalizers, sharpening the appe- | tite but to disappoint it. It is a grievance and ought ‘ to be stopped. People pay for these offices, and pay ; all that is demanded of them, llow then are we to 1 submit to such carelessness and indifference ? It is ot be hoped that some antidote to the evil may be sugges ted, and that the incoming administration will do some what to aid tho good work. Yoms, Cco., X. FOR THE TIMES A’ SENTINEL. A Singular Coincidence. Several years ago, it was the misfortune of the writer to lose a very near and dear relation, by whose death bis heart was beggared and his home made desolate. In the quiet of a Sunday afternoon some weeks after wards, he was meditating, all alone, upon the extent of his loss, and the loneliness of his future, in a room hal lowed by the occupancy of tho loved and lost. Airy ; unexpectedly a stray leaf was blown at his feet; he 1 picked it up and returned it to its place, without look- ; ing at it, and continued his promenade. He had scarce- | ly reached the same point, before the leaf again fell at ! his feet; he again returned it to its place without notice. Upon reaching the same spot the third time the same | leaf arrested his steps; startled somewhat by the cir- ( eumstanoe, he stooped down and picked it up, wonder ing in his own mind, if it might not contain some word of consolation in his bereavement. It was a leaf from a book which belonged to his deceased friend, and had not been touched since her death. You can well imagine his surprise and joy when the first words which tnet his eyes were those of the following beautiful verses— and will pardon the superstition which regarded them as tho voice of his beloved that had thus reached him from her far off homo in heaven. L. thou’rt not alose. j Written cn hearing a young ludy exclaim, “.lion! I'm alt clone. 1 BY X. CURTISS STINE. Thou’rt not alone—the greenwood’s shades are round thee, | When summer comes, with all her joyous train ; And playful winds at eve have otten found thee. And murmured in thine ear hope’s sweetest strain; Thou'art not alone—each gaily tinted flower. Thalsmiling greets us on the dewy lea, The painted clouds at sunset's golden hour, To me ate friends, and should be so to thee. Thou’rt not alone—the rod stars gleaming o’er thee. At midnight lone, with whispering voices tell, Old tales of those who passed away before thee. In brighter lands beyond the sun to dwell. And when the robe of autumn gaily shining, With rainbow hues, is o’er the forest thrown, Go list the winds among their boughs repining, And learn on earth thou ne'er canst dwell alone. Thou’rt not atone—the shades of the departed, On radiant wings are soaring sottly by— Thou canst notlsee them, but the gentle hearted. To visit thee, olt leave the azure sky. What though the world in chasing flying pleasure, With iev hearts should past thee coldly hie ? Look—look on high—thou hast a richer treasure. Than all its gems and glittering dross can buy. A LETTER FROM A LADY. FOR THE TIMES & SENTINEL. , To the Ladies ot the South. BY A LADY OF COLUMBUS. I appeal to you, sisters and daughters of the South, to raise your voices in defenco of onr beautiful land, and the institutions under which you were born, from tho malicious denuncia tions of northern and foreign fanaticism. It was with silent indignation, we first beheld the j gauntlet thrown in our midst, by one of our sex, whose Mauchausen-like tales, we deemed too absurd to gain eredenco with any save the ig norant and vulgar, although its cutting sar casm seemed sharper than a Damascus blade; yet this self-styled Christian, with superior tact and genius, tells her tale, so false, and yet “so well, the very truth seems falsehood to it.” If it he true that virtues and vices are inherited, and descend from generation to generation, then our fair antagonist, Mrs. Stowe, may justly claim to be a lineal descendant of the illustrious Ananias and Sapphira. Perhaps it was in consideration of her acknowledged right to the j honor and titles of this distinguished old family, ! that aristocratic England has received her with so many manifestations of love and respefit.— Let proud Briton then erect to the memory of this apparent philanthropist, a suitable monu ment : we would suggest a gathering together of some half million of skeletons from poor famished Ireland, or from a more convenient distance, (a sufficient quantity may ho obtained from her own native home) with the following inscrip tion : Had I been here, you would not hare died. She might it is true have drawn there her uncle Toms from life without coloring them from her imagination; and the proceeds of her work might have gone to buy bread for the poor dying creatures. Hut believe it not, de luded people, the false deceiver would have grasped the gold witli a miser’s clutch, and hurried away to some foreign clime, as she did from her native land, to revel in ill-gotten wealth. She was indeed no stranger to the piercing cry of hunger, it was heard in her north ern home, around her own door, but she heeded it not, and sought to still the voice of con science by writing base exaggerations of oursun ny South ; and pretending to discover a beam in her neighbor’s eye, before casting out the mote in her own. The cunning falsehood has gone forth to the world, and produced a golden harvest, but has that feeble cry ceased, i r has it grown beautifully less ‘ Oh no, her work is finished, it is done, and she still closes her ear to the piteous tale of privation and misery, as she continues to (ill her coffers witii tile’ gold site has wrung from her too-credulous country men, by her pathetic appeals in behalf of our colored population, and the swift-sailing packet conveys her far away from her home, where the heart piercing wail has become a noxious sound, to display her false laurels, and dishon est wealth, in luxurious England. Gifted au thoress, we would recommend a home mission to you, since your pretended object is to amelio rate the condition of suffering humanity. Chari ty should begin at home. Go then to your Northern eities, where squalid misery and ah- j ject poverty, in its most hideous forms, may be j seen, where starvation or crime is tho only” al- j tentative, and amid filth and vermin, human be- I ings live in hopeless degradation. Lot her com- ! pare their foul sickly faces with the sleek ebony j visages of the laughter-loving negroes, who till I the broad fields of the beautiful South. See their j dark forms amid the waving corn, as with a j giant strength they wield the glittering hoe, listen to the clatter of tongues which is occa sionally drowned by loud p. .in of merry laugh ter. Discontent sits lightly on their brows, no care or sorrow is there, for a comfortable cabin, and a plenty of good cheer awaits them, I .and at tho loud bugle’s clamorous call, they I hasten to partake of their sumptuous meal. To tho fair dames of aristocratic England, j whose appeal to us we read with a feeling of I pity and disgust, we would advise the same i course ; their total insensibility to tho destitute j and degraded of their own land, shows a dead- j ness to shame which is positively appalling. 1 Not even for poor suffering Ireland, can their i sympathies be awakened. Yet they point their I jeweled fingers in derision at the bright land of warm and generous hearts, to whom an appeal i of distress was never made in vain. For you, j fair votaries of mammon and fashion, we sup- | press our indignation and leave you to your 1 own conscience, and may your prayers be of- ■ sered to heaven for this your great national 1 shame. But there is yet another whose odi- j utn we deplore though we fear it not. It is the ) high-minded Fredrika Bremer, whose heart | thrilling romances have been a welcome visi tant at every Southern fireside, and gladdened j every heart with their pure and gentle infineiices. But alas! from her long stay among our Nor- 1 them fanatics she has imbibed their prejudices i against our institutions and we arc to have ! in her “Homes in the new world” a tirade of! abuse instead of the pure and gentle effusions | w hich seemed to emanate from a heart both j good and great. Kind lady, had you come to ! us with unprejudiced feelings and looked upon j our happy and contented negroes, warm hearts, and open arms, would have welcomed you, and ; then perhaps you might have thought your pity misapplied, for they want it not; could tears 1 dispel your strange delusions we would shed 1 them for the wrong you have done us, but it is ; too late to shed them now, the poison has been thrown indiscriminately to the world and must run its course, and we, the slave holders and | ! benefactors, wo who have cared for them, cloth-1 : ed and fed them, prayed for them, nursed them in sickness, and shed tears over their inanimate forms, we are your victims. Yet you would tell our humble friends that we are tyrants, and use them with cruet barbarity, and teach them to turn like the adder and sting theirgenerous bene factors, who would shield them from every dan ger and vice. But farewell, dear deluded lady, thy work of fiction will no longer gladden Southern hearts, and the gold that would have i filled thy purse, wo will send to feed the hun gry and clothe tho naked of your own continent, ; for tiie Southern negroes out of their abundance j can spare this, and more, for poor suffering j humanity. Ladies of the Sonth, where is the lofty spirit j that instigated our fathers and mothers of the j revolution ? they could brook no interference with j their lights and privileges, and shall we, their j children, suffer this great indignity from the j north or from a nation that has already been j made to quail before a southern slave holder, the great, tho immortal Washington l XVe j would have you seize the pen,and bring forth your j latent talents, that have so long lain dormant, I in defence of your country and her institutions. The South can boast of intellect that will suc cessfully contend with Mrs. Stowe and Miss ! Bromer, and only the time and inclination has been wanting to prove it. The time has come, and to keep silent longer would cease to be a virtue. In conclusion we would say to the of ficious ladies who with unblushing effrontery dared to thrust their advice upon us, that “your own lands are filled with slaves, slaves to igno rance, slaves to penury, and slaves to vice.’ Your duty is to ameliorate their condition and to supply them out of your abundance with the common necessaries of life.
