NEWSPAPER LAWS. We would call the special attention of Post Masters and our subscribers to the following synopsis of the Newspaper laws : 1. A Postmaster is required to give no. tice by letter*.(returning a paper does not answer the law,)- when a subscrilier does not take his pa|>er out of the office, and the reasons for its not being taken, and neglect to do so makes the Postmas ter responsible to the publishers for the payment. 2. Any person who takes a paper from the Post-Office, whether directed to his name or another, or whether he has sub' acribed or n t, is responsible for the pay. 3. If a person orders his paper discon' tinued he must pay all arrearages; or the publisher may continue to send it until payment is made, ar.d collect the whole amount, whether it be taken from the of fice or not. There can be no legal dis continuance until the payment is made. 4. If subscribers order the paper to be •topped at a certain time, and the pub' laher continues to send it, the sub criber is bound to pay for it if lie takes it out of the Post-Office. The law proceeds upou the ground that a man must pay for what lie uses. 5. The’courts have decided that refu sing to take newspapers and periodicals from the Post-office, or removing and leaving them uncalled for, is prima facia evidence of intentional fraud.

TO ELLEN 11. * * * “ When thou art gone my heart is sad," Whatever joys my cup may fill; The charm is flown that music had, The brightest skies look dark and chill, Thou cans’t not tell how much I miss Thy greeting upon the morning wakes, And every dream of vernal bliss, I,ike a bright bubble, suddenly breaks. And, aV ! not’ess when shadows fall, Thy words of love, before I sleep, Thy sweet caress—l miss them all, And in my loueliness I weep. When thou art gone, the day to me, And the deep silence of the night, Alike roll on, nnd thoughts of thee Alone can make my moments bright. C. Written for the Gwinnett Atlas. Pen and Ink Sketches—No. t£. REVEREND ANSALEM ANTHONY. Iliis Venerab’e man lived in the Eastern part of this county—near the line of Jackson—from my earliest recollection, until a few j years ago, when lie removed to Meriwether county, to live with ! one of his sons, where be died. I ha ve no means of ascertaining , when lie was born, or where ; but would say that he was born not f r from the year 1780, ana, I think, in Georgia—probably in Wilkes. lie was a Baptist preacher, but I don’t know whether he was iden tified with the Missionary Church, after the division, or whether he continued with the old organiza tion I think he was a kind of ' go-between ; holding to some of the I doettines of the “old side,’’ and j to some of the Missionary Church. : I r o advocated some of the benev [ olent institutions of the day, such as the Bilile Society and temper ance; but co demned Free Ala somy, and was an uncompromi sing opponent of this ancient I order. 1 remember, in 1845, of staying at his house all night, and enjoying liis hospitality, which was a liberal and generous one; and sat up with him until past midnight ; our principal conversation being in denunciation of Masonry. I had recently read “ Morgan’s disclo sures,’’ and was in high vein for it. I afterwards renounced my anti- Masonry, while my old friend held out against it until his dying day. His was a deep seated prejudice, arising from the want of a proper knowledge of the institution and its beautiful moral teachings. lie never know that Clay and Jack son, Few and Longstreet, Frank lin and Washington, and tens of thousands of the heb* and most enlightened, both of Church and State, were its votaries. I accord to him honesty and sincerity in his opposition; and in bis denunciation, be thought he was doing God service as much as to denounce the brothel or the grog-shop. In the temperance reform in his 1 day, he was zealous and indefat igable, and was a co worker with J. S. Wilson, Dr. Alexander, j Moses Liddell, Hosea Camp, Wm. Montgomery, and others of the old fathers, and was as uncom promising in his opposition to the “Liquor Question,” as the “straigh- ! test of the sect.' 1 An anecdote will illustrate his character, and his strong opposi- | tion to drinking whisky, under any and all circumstances. Arriving in our village early one morning—having tarried the previous night not far oft —he called in at the store of one of our merchants, who had known him all his life, aud, after the usual salutations, he complained of feel ing unwell, and asked for some water, remarking ttiat be ha#not bad an opportunity of taking his mnrntnif dram. (“ WIIAT IS IT BUT A MAP OF BUSY LIFE ? ”) His friend, Mr. S., was greatly astonished at this, as lie had sup- j posed he could not be induced tot take even a “ morning drain,” j under any circumstances; and his countenance betrayed to the old / gentleman that astonishment, who \ at once explained, in his soft, slow , and measured words, that “luj did not mean that stinking, debas* j ing, poisonous stuff called whisky’, that runs men mad ; that poisons their life-blood ; that fills owj; jails and poorhouses; that breaks the hearts of women and beggars children—but he meant that spark ling, health-giving beverage—the best temporal gift of God to man —Water. That his habit for yeaFs iiad been, upon his first rising of u morning, to repair to iiis spring and take large drafts, which aided digestion, improved the health and prolonged a man’s life.” Mr. Anthony was never a great preacher, in the common accepta tion of the term. He was net fluent or animated, but profound as a theologian His voice was soft and low, his enunciations sluw and measured; his ideas always sensible and Scriptural—and lie fulfilled his mission as acceptably and as faithfully as any of bis Co temporaries ; and in eternity, his crown will be adorned and bedecked with ma ny bright jewels of souls saved through his instru mentality. In personal appearance, Mr. An thony’ was of the “ old Roman type ’’ —six-feet t wo or three inches in height —large frame, but no surplus flesh—calm, dark face, bespeaking a quiet, benevolent heart—all, all indicating reverence for God; charity to man, and uni versal good-will to his race. Blessed old man ! Had lhe world been filled with such, peace would have had universal reign, and tho blessedness of millenial glory would have blessed the earth a thousand years. W. HOLE IN THE POCKET. “ Charles,” said little Mrs Dnn forth. as they sat beside their cozy parlor fire, one evening, “ I want to do a little shopping to-moirovv. Can’t you let me have some money ? ” “ Why yes, my dear, I guess 1 can,” said Mr. Danfofih; slowly drawing out his pocket-book.— “ How much do you want ? ” “ How much can yon spare ? ” asked Mrs. Daufortb, smiling. “Well, I think lean do pretty well for you to-night. Will twen ty-five dollars answer?” “ Yes,” replied the lady, so cheerfully. Upon which Mr. Dan forth setiled himself easily in his chair, and began laying the bills from his purse across Ins knee to count iLft-rr. Presently he sat up and counted the bills again, and then ho looked about him with a perplexed air. *• Why, Sallie,” he said, “ I thought I had more money than I have. I Bur-ly did have more when we closed the store to-night.” “ How much have you now? ” j asked Mrs Daufortb, with a slight change in the cheerful accent of her voice. “Why, I’ve cnly got twenty- j five dollars altogether.” “ And how mich did you think you had ? ” “ I thought I had thirty, for I remember of jetting it in my pocket-book. Where can that ex tra five have pone ? ” “ Perhaps sou spent sonic on ! the way hone?” observed Mrs. Daufortb. “ No, that i« not much; only a trifle. I met Willis and Parker in Eighth streit, and we dropped into Brooki’ and took a dish of oysters.” “ And a egar or two," suggested Mrs. Danfoth. “Oh, of course; but that was nothing, y»u know ” “ And » glass of wine to wash the oyslers down?” suggested Mrs. lunforth. “ mil, yes, a glass or two. — i but that) d dn’t cost five dollars, ! yon kntw.” Nowi Mrs. Danforth did not know, jnd she did hav» mmpicions; I but. Vke ■■ -i - kept silent, and let Mr. Charles /go on. “ Where can the money have \got hid away ? I’m sure I had St, and I’ve ransacked every pock et in vain.” “Perhaps there is!—perhaps there is!” —eagerly cried Charles, /beginning to turn his pockets wrong side out. “ Yes—just as I expected. Here is a hole, and that bill must have sipped out of my pocket and got here. Look, Sallie, I shall have to get you to sew it up.” Sallie obediently looked, and could hardly restrain a smile as she saw Charles, with such an in nocent face, hold .out the pocket in which indeed there was a hole, hot so exceedingly small a one, that, by no manner of means, could a five cent scrip have made its way through, much less a large bill. “ I don’t see' how it could get through such a small hole,” she could not help saying. “ But it must, you see, because there was no other way,” argued Charles, logically. “ I declare I’m sorry, tfallie, for I shall have to cut you off with fifteen dollars this time. I’m obliged to have ten to pay a tax bill in the morn ing. Can’t you get along with fifteen ? ” “ I must, I suppose,” said Mrs. Danforth, with a light sigh. “ Well, that’s a good girl. Here, then; I’m sorry to give you so little; and, if it hadn’t been fir that unfortunate hole in my pock et, you should have had more.” “Yes, I think it must have been the hole in your pocket,” said Mrs. Danforth, as she arose to put her money away. The peculiar em phasis in her voice caused her husband to look curiously up to her; but the calm, sweet face told him nothing, so he speedily forgot the tone she had just used. As Mrs. Danforth, tastefully dressed for the stiect, passed through the hall next morning, she picked up a tiny bit of white pa per, which looked as though it might have fallen from her hus band’s pocket the night before. It appeared to be a little memoran dum, or something of that sort, and, Bmcotliing out its crumbled folds, Mrs. Danforth read it; C. 11. Danforth, *l'o Brooks & Co., I)r. For oysters, self anil friends, .82.00 " cigars “ “ 1.00 “ wine “ “ .... 200 Total fffr.oo Received payment, Brooks & Co Little Mrs. Dauforth’s pretty face wore a variety of curious expressions as site put the little paper into her purse. “Ah I ” safd she to herself, “ I think I have discovered the hole in Charles’ pocket.” She drew another little sigh, and then quietly wont down about i her shopping, intent on making fifteen dollars go as far as pos sible. Mrs. Danforth said not a word of her discovery; but she was a sharp little body, and meant to follow it up. Charley was a care less fellow, and left his notes and memorandums lying around loose, and whenever she found any of them, instead of tossing them into the fire, she carefully saved them, and laid them away for fu ture reference. In the space of three or four months she became almost alarmed to see what a pile of these little papers she accu mulated. The hole was a great deal larger than she had imagined. But she said not a word on the subject. One night, only a few days be fore Christmas, Charley returned from the store with a perplexed face. After supper was over, and the children gone to bed, instead of sitting down to read or chat to Sallie, as was his wont, ho took his pencil and expense book, and began to make calculations. Mrs. Danforth sat at her work, quietly observant, but saying I nothing. After a long while, Char ley laid aside his paper and pen- j cil, drew a long sigh of relief, and broke the silence : “ Sallie, I declare, 1 believe we must invent some way to be more economical.” “ I try to do as well as I can, Charley.” “ I know you do, dear. Ifou're a good little Sallie, and I don’t mean to scold. Bat there is an awful leak in our expenses some where. I find l havn’t made neat_ [s2 A YKAB, IN ADVANCE. And wo must try to stop it, you know.” “ You think it ia the household expense, thou? ” said Mra. l)an forth, dryly. “Of course; must he, you know;' for where else could it he ? It is my own private income; so it can’t be through the business. I don’t have an extravagant tailor’s bill—” ‘‘No; but I am afraid your hole in your pocket sometimes,” inter rupted Mrs. Daufurth, mischie vously. “Why, what do you mean?” asked Charles, in real, unfeigned surprise. “Oh, only' trifles! —wine, oys ters, cigars, occasional trips down the river, tickets to the theatre, and all that.” “ But, Sallie, you wouldn’t have a man give up all his pleasures, would you ? ’’ “ No; but when he wants econ omy practiced in his family, I’d like to have him practice it a littu himself.’’ “ Well, I’m sure 1 do. What 1 spend for those tilings is a mere nothing, Sallie—a mere nothing, I assure you.” Without replying, Mrs. Daufurth rose, went to the secretary, and unlocked her writing desk From it she took a thick roll of small papers, and brought them to Charles. “There!” said she; "I found all these just where- you happened to drop them—on the floor, under the grate, on the wash stand, any where and everywhere—and they tell me that in a little over four months a “ mere nothing has cost you four hundred and fifty dollars. Look for yourself.” Charles took the papers without a word, spread them out before him, ami slowly looked over them, one by one. When he had finished he rolled them up again, stuck the roll in his pocket, and sat silent for a while, looking into the lire with a very peculiar expression on his countenance. “Well,” asked Mrs. Danforth. smiling, “ hive you found the hole in your pocket? ” Charles got up from his seat, deliberately walked over to Satlie’s chair, and, stooping down, kissed her pretty mouth. “ There, Sallie,’’ said hr, “if you will never say another word about that, I will get yon ilie handsomest present I can find.” j “ And you will uiend the hole | in your pocket?" asked Sallie, roguishly. • “ Yes, I’ll promise that. You won’t find any more holes, Sallie, that yon can’t sew up with a nee dle and thread.” “ Now, reader, hunt for the moral, and may heaven speed the quest. - “ Wasted, a Bov to Attend a Bar Room.”-—The paper dropped from my hands as I read this adver tisement. It seemed jjyrthough I Tuil read, u Wanted, X ooy to go down to perdition.” I fancied I saw a bright, earnest boy going to a bar-room, seeking a living by that fearful trade of selling wine and mm. I could imagine how, one by one, all the goo ! impulses and desires ho had in the beginning fell before the evil influences of the dram shop; how he learned to drink, to swear and steal ; how bad compan ions came around him, and helped him on to ruin. Ah ! my l*J, or whoever you are j who may be tempted by such a call, let me tell you that you may better work in the field, or at a forge, or digging ditches, anything honest, than to degrade yourself by soiling death to others. No matter how j hard your work, no matter if it soils j your hands or clothes, so long ss it I leaves your heart pure. Beware of all such “good places” as wilt lead you into the snares of the evil one. There are many doors, besides those of the bar-rooms, which are almost : the same as gate ways down to the world of woe. —Morning Light. oa Rap * nr, t-8~ The <t .
