gurated the plan of chargiog an admission

ceremony and afterward to the dancing.
One young man recently by this means
realised a sufficient sum to start him in
Ufa in a style which his limited salary
would otherwise not have permitted.
A reduction was made sometime
ago in the rates c! postege on some classes
ol printed matter, which does not seem to
be generally nnderstood. On mail matter
of the third-clies, such as books, postage
is still to be paid at the rate of one cent for
twoonneea. But newspapers, magazines
and periodicals regal arly issued at stated
intervals as frequently ss four times a
year, are charged postage only at the rate
of one cent for four onnees. Most people,
however, when mailing papers or maga
zines to friends in the country still stamp
them at the old rate. Better save tbe odd
cents and mail more papers.
LECAL NEWS AND NOTES.
Prepared for the Telegraph ond Messen

A promise that Is not to be performed
within n year most, in order to be bind
ing, be In writing. Bo eaya the statute;
but the courts have construed it bo aa to
mean much lees than U apparently doea.
This construction was first made in the
leading case of Peter vs. Compton. Mr.
Peter was an old bachelor and Mr. Comp
ton agreed that if Mr. Peter would pay him
one guinea down, he would pay Mr. Peter
one thousand guineas on his wedding day.
(This happened several hundred years ago
and may have suggested tbe modern idea
of matrimonial Insurance.) Mr. Peter de
termined to earn the thoosund guineas
and get a wife in the bar
gain; io, nine years later, he
took unto himself a spouse, for whom Mr.
Common's promise bad unwittingly pro
vided a dowry. Mr. Compton demurred
to Mr. Peter's demand for the thousand
guineas with which he proposed to begin
nousekeeping, and planted himself on tbe
ststate above qnoted, arguing that as Pe
ter took nine years io carry ont the con
tract it.was certainly a contract “not to
be performed in a year." The court did
not anstsin this view. They held (end
such is now the law) that the statute only
applies to contracts incapable of perform
ance by their terms within a year, and
that inasmuch as Mr. Peter might have
married the very next day, the contract
was binding, although verbal. The stat
ute. therefore, does not apply to contracts
which may or may not be completed with
in a year. Nor doea it apply to those which
are to be performed in a year by one party
but not by the other. II a contract of rent •

FROM ATLANTA.
A Recent Interview with Cleveland-
Dropped Dead on the Streets,
[SFICIAL TELEGRAM.]
Atlanta, February 7.—Colonel Robert
Beverly, of Virginia, was in Atlanta to-day
on bis way to New Orleans. He is presi
dent of the National Farmers' Congress,
which meets in New Orleans next week.
He called on the Ooverncr and was called
on by a number of prominent citizens.
Col. Beverly is jmt from the conference
with Cleveland, who he urged to appoint
Barbour to a cabinet position—that of
Postmaster-General. He thinks, however,
that Jonas, of Lou islana, will be the next
Postmaster-General.
Uon. N. E. Harris, of Macon,has been in-
vited to deliver an address before the Na
tional Agricultural Congress next week in
New Orleans on “Technology.” Col. Bev
erly expressed the hope that Mr. Harris
will accept, as he believes him thoroughly
posted on the subject.

canons, were neither forbidden or improp
