This act was the issuing of an order abolishing the postoffice at Luverae, a thriving to#fa in Ala¬ bama of 500 people, the great ma¬ jority of whom are white, in fact, It is almost a white settlement. To this place the poatmaater-general ap¬ pointed a negro who was objection¬ able to the people, •« the successor of a respectable and efficient white man. They declined to have any business with the postoffice, and in¬ convenienced themselves by getting their mail elsewhere. The negro, who appears to be a tolerably sensi¬ ble individual, perceiving this state of affairs benefltted him not,, de¬ termined to resign, but was per¬ suaded by some sneaking; rascals of the carpetbag stripe to hold on and stand the boycott. And now the postmaster-general, to gratify Ms spleen at the refusal of the white peo¬ ple to accept this negro ^postmaster* has abolished the office.

He may have authority to discontinue small postoffices because the people are properly indignant that an objec¬ tionable official should be foisted up¬ on them, but be cannot force a Southern community to acquiesce in his content ptible actions. Luverne postoffice may go out of existence and an entire community may be an¬ noyed and inconvenienced, but tbs people will stand it rather than yield to the arbitrary and offensive edict of John Waaamaker.

Moreover, it maketh one’s own family to turn against him because of his nnseeminly conduct and his awful breath, the smell whereof is worse than the fumes of the bottomless pit. Thus, at least, saith E'bert Ogle- tree, colored, who swears that hence¬ forth he will drink nothing but water, albeit flavored mayhap with liquor that is red. Elbert hails variously from Butts, Monroe and Pike, but more recently from the last county. Yet the good people of Forsyth sent him up here yesterday with Marshal King to be numbered with Spalding’s contin¬ gent at the ancient capital of the State, after coming very near elect¬ ing him from Monroe. To this Judge Hammond demurred and after an expnrte examination by the Ordi¬ nary, the County Judge, the Sheriff and the Court Reporter, Elbert was dismissed on his own recognizance and told to go nnd drink no more peach brandy. For it was the excessive use of peach without honey that made El¬ bert’s own father turn against him and came near sending him to the lunatic asylum from two counties in one day. According to his own testi¬ mony, one of his employers had told him if he ever gob a chance at a bar¬ rel of liquor he would drink himself to death. It would seem that he had access to a hogshead of peach brandy, which now runs in streams in Monroe county; and he drank and he cursed and he ripped around and was altogether a frightful example, like unto one insane. Bat yesterday afternoon he had only a headache and a pair of handcuffs to show that he was not himself. Look not upon the peach moveth brandy itself when it is new and with prussic acid, but rather let itget age and mix it aright with honey. Court of Ordinary.
