t HE Northern Mail had r.ot ar-
when this paper was put to
prefs. We trail this will plead our
cxcufe for the little intelligence it
contains. To what caufe to attri
bute the frequent failure of the Mail
at this place, we know not. It was
an inconvenience which could be, and
was, borne with and forgiven on a
fight excufe, fome fix or feven
months fince—but, is now an evil ,
‘/ r ich we cannot forbear to depre
cate —-It is a grievance, which mill
er ‘s againft the whole community
•—lt is rn evil, which vitally affrlts
the hr ft interefts of this country.—
It A not long ffnee one of the Mml
Hones died on the route between
Atigufta and this place—A limilar
misfortune may have now happened,
Whether this calamity was occafion
;i by bard riding , or was brought
on through the inability of the ani
mal to fupport the weight under
which he labored, we kn-aw not—
But this we de know—that at a time
like the prefen?, when each indivi
dual in the community is on tip
toe to hear the puffing evtnu—
whefi expe&arion ?.nd hope, com
mingled with iome ffna’l degree of
fear tor the defiiny of our beloved
country, ar.d our brave and patriot
ic brethren in arms, are wrtwght
up to the h’gh< ft pitch of anxiety—
ive fay, when this is the cafe, we do
know, that that it is the boon den
duty of thofe who have the man
agement of our Mail Routes, to
make thofe who contra# for the
conveyance of the Mall, furnifh
Hefts that are able, and Drivers , or
A.dcrs that are capable, of convey
ing the Mails to every iodion o’ our
Continent with the leaft de
ky, and with the molt lcrupulous
exaftne-fs.
We hope we fhall not again have
ocesfion to notice this fi-bpCl—un
lefs it be to inform our readers that
the evil has been remedied— {hat the
proper authority has “ corrected the
procedure.** Wc w:fh not to wound
the feelings of any cf the contra#-
ors, but it is a duty which we owe
to our patrons, to the public, and
to ourfelvep, to fife this buff ids—
and as far a** we Art capable, it lb*ii
be done. D*. Cozens, Ag*mt for
the General Poft OffV e, when m
place a tew weeks lince, alTur
cd us that, on a proper repreicsta
tion being made to Mr. Granger,
sf any inattention or defaicatDa or,
any of the Routes, and bv whom,
verv exertion would be immedi
ately made, a:d he had no doubt
fuccefsfully too, to place thing! n a
proper tram. It is rhe duct, there
of any one who kn f *wv iron*
whence fpting, the evil complained
of, to make lu.h reprefeatarion to
the Head el the General Poll Of
fice.

one of tbs Lai tors of ibis paper,

thought worthy of publication.]
“ Beware of fatfe Prophets—
which come to you in Sheep's clothing,
but inwardly they are ravening
Wolves!”
We find that this portion of Srrip
jre is verified by every day’s expe
rnce—in every age and country
here have arifen falle Prophets —
ieceivcrs—men who have endtra
i ored to irnpofe on the public, not
Inly in profeffing to be inspired
rom Almighty G and, and to com
nine with Angels concerning th
Ite, deftiny and deftruction oi the
odd, but even in (he common oc
currences of life, thele argeiic erta
!urs never fail to inform vis of the
immutabie will of the Almighty—
therefore, beware of Propacts,
for the? will comets you in fneep f 5
clothing, but inwardly they are ra
vening wolves.
