under tiie direction of the department.
5. In all cases there is to be a loil’eiture of the pay- of
She trip, when the trp is not run; a forfeiture of at least
one-fourth part of it when the running or arrival is so far

tract. These forfeitures may be increased into high
penalties of higher mount, according to the nature or
frequency of the failure and the importance of the mail.
6. Fines will be imposed, unless the delinquency be sa

know ingly making it contract for the trasporlatiiin of the

anv other person or pe sons,or who shall have made any
agreement, or-hall have given or performed or promised
to give or perform any considi ration to do. or not to do
any thing whatever to induce any other person not to bid
fora maif contract. Particular attention is called to the

lo prevent bidding.
12. A bid received after time, to wi:; the 'oth March
next, at 9 a.in.,or without the guaranty required bylaw,

j 13. A bidder may offer, where the tr. importation called
for in the advertisement is difficult or inipralieabie at cer
tain seasons, to substitute e uinfurior mode ofconvey mice,
: -or to intermit service a spec-lied number of days, weeks,
I or months Hemaypropo elo omit an office that is inac
cessible, or is not on t e stage road, the railway, or at a
j steam boat landing, as tiie case may be; or he may offer
j to substitute an inferior mode of supply in such cases
, He may propose different days aud hours of departure
and arrival, provided no more runnin lime i.- asked, and
k is obvious that no mail connexion or other public ac
i comujodalion is prejudiced. He may ask for more run
, ning time to the trip,doting a specified 'number of days,
j at certain seasons ot peculiarly bad re ads; but beyond
j these chances, a proposal for service different from the.
j advertisement will prevent its being considered in com
; petition with a regular bid not set a-ide for extravagance;
j and where a hid contains any of the above alterations,
their disadvantages will be estimated in comparing it
| with other proposals.
4 4. There should he but one route bid for in a proposal.
15. The route, the service, the yearly pay, tiie bidder’s
nnKC and residence, and the name of each member of the
j firm, where a company offers, slum d he distinctly stated

1 horseback is intended.
j 16. The bid should he sent under seal, addressed tothe
First Assi.-taet Postmaster General, with “Mad Proposals
|in the State of-——,” written on the face of the b tier ;
i and should be despatched in tune to he, reeeeved by or
j betoreihe 10th March next, at 9 o’clock, a. m.
17. The contracts are to be executed hy or before the
Ist July next.
18. Postmasters at offices situated upon or near ruil
i roads, but more than eighty rods from a depot, will. Im
mediately after the Ist April next, report that fact to the
I department, stating their exact distance from the railroad
J depot, and how otherwise supplied w ith the mail, to eua
i hie the Postmaster General to direct the proper supply
to be made from the railroad by mail messengers, ii om
and after the Ist July next.
19 Under the act of 3d March, 18-15. the route is to bo
let to the lowest bidder, tendering sufficient guaranties
for faithful performance, without reference to the mode
I of transportation than maybe necessary to provide for
1 the duo celerity, certainty , and security of such Irans
j port alien.
When the lowest bid proposrs a mode of conveyance
that is inadequate for the route in respect to the certain
ty, security, and celerity of the mails, aside from am ac
commodation for travel, it will not be entitled to flie
route
20. When the bid does not name a mode of conveyance,
it will be. taken and understood to be f-rlhekiw es un-ode of
conveyance to wit: on horebaek. When it p/tq roses to
j carry according to the advertisement, and no mode of
j conveyance is stated for the route in the advertisement,
I it will he considered as offering only for horseback emt
j veyance.
21. Since the passage of the act of March 3, 1845, a
j new description ofbid has been received. It specifies no 1
mode of conveyance, but engages to carry the mail wi:h
! certainty, celerity, and security, using the terms of the
j law. These bids are called.from the manner in which
I they tire designated on the books of the department,‘ slur
j bid." It has been decided, after mature consideration,
| that, a bid proposing- a specific, mode of convex mice of as
high a grade as Two horse coach transportation is to be
! preferred loth*- star bid The experience of the depa t
i ment enables it to lay down the following rules, v iz :
! When the mail on the route is not so large as to re.quira
; two horse roach conveyance • a star bid. if the lowest, will
{ be preferred to the specific bid.
22. When the mails are of such size and weight as to
I renderit necessary or expedient, in reference to them
j alone, to provide two-horse coach conveyance, the spe
j cific bid. thoHt-hthe highest, will be preferred to the slat
, bid. to the extentof a moderate difference in the compen
sation, in case the difference is not such as to interfere
1 with the policy-of the new law, which looks to a reduc
tion in the cost of transportation. Exceptions, however,
may he allowed where the st ir bid if made by ih-- present
owner of the stock on the route, and it is manifest that the
reasons for preferring the specific hid do not exist in his
case.
23. On routes of the hsgliest class, where four-horse
j coach or steamboat transportation is required by the size
; and importance of the mails, the preference fur the spe
; cific bid wi II be, if necessary- carried to a greater extent
| of difference than on 'he iaferor coach mules, subject,
| however, to the exceptions above stated.
11 24. A modification ofa bid, in any of itsessential terms
; is tantamount to a new bid, aud cannot be received, so as
to interfere with regular competition, after the last hour
■ set for receiving bids. <’. JOHNSON.

Wfl have long regarded it as a most humiliating re
flection upon the South, that no professedly ueu
tral ajnilv journal lias yet in cn sustained wdliiu lit r bor
ders. We have tested the experiment whether >uch a
paper could not be supported at tile immediate South,
and though not wholly unsuccessful, our experience has
taught ns that the papers of tliis class published in the
largo Northern cities, possess advantages oyer those of
the country, which, in a measure, d fv compebiion. But
here the case is different. Baltimore, standing as t does
oil tile Pootier of the Southern Slates, is yet near enough
tothe great commercial, literary and political emporium,
to lie included in the neighborhood of great American
cifies, and to enjoy ail the adv tillages, as a radiating
point, which are possessed by either Philadelphia, Boston
or New York. A paper Issued from Baltimore lias all the
facilities lor obtaining the latest literary intelligence, as
well as the current literature of the day, foreign and do
mestic, riial are enjoyed by the journals of the Northern
cities. Tita Western Continent is as large, as cheap,
andean be better adapted to the w ants and tastes of South
ern readers, than those Northern papers which now draw
so large an amount of their patronage from the Southern
public.
Entertaining these views, we have looked with confi
dence to the success of the Continent. Eight mouth’s
experience has tended to strengthen thatconUdcjice, and
now we enter upon it- publication with a firm conviction
that all that is necessary to secure for it a circulation
equal to that of its Northern eolemporaries, is a faithful
and energetic devotion of our best abilities to make it a
useful and entertaining Family .Journal. It is our de
sign to make the Western Continent emphatically a
Southern family paper, that may be read with interest
and profit by every member of a Southern family.—
With this view, we shall draw for our literary depart
ment, from the best sources.such matter as will interest
and entertain the mind, without offending the taste or
corrupting the morals of our renders.
Pains will he taken to give the iatest intelligence on all
subjects of interest to the general reader, to the exclu
sion of the vast amount of local matter, such as personal
gossip, police reports, theatrical and other criticisms,
which make up so large a poi t ion of the staple of some of
the popular w eeklies of the North. In a word, though
we shall endeavor to make our paper interesting to all,
mi r chief aim shall he to adapt it to the wants and tastes
of the people of the South and South-West, upon whom,
and these of our own city who are disposed to sustain
such a journal, we must mainly depend for support.
r King more upon the intrinsic merits of our paper,
than on any promises we. might make in a prospectus,
we will close by appealing to the readers of the South
and West for a share of that patronage which they so
hberally bestow' upon the overgrown weeklies Os the
North.

THE WASHINGTON UNION.
“DAILY UNION” will be published. a.* heie
-S- tofore.nl $lO per annum, payable in advance. Its
character hitherto has been almost exclusively political.
We purpose in future to devote a portion of its columns
to domestic news of general interest, and to miscellane
ous literature, wbich, without impairing its political ui
tlueiicc, may render it the more acceptable to an ex
tended class of readers.
The “SEMI-WEEKLY' UNION” will bo published
every Monday and Thursday, during the recess ol Con
gress, at $5 per annum. This contains all the matter
; cont ained in the li Dotty Union." except local ad\ erlise
! meats. During the sessions of Congress three numbers,
instead of two, will be issued, without any extra charge
to subscribers.
E.\LARIiE-IIENT OF THE WEEKLY UMOV.
The "WEEKLY UNION” is issued every Saturdav;
i and as arrangements are in progress to enlarge it to
I near double its present size, we shall soon he enabled to
j give nearly every article which may appear in the daily
and semi-weekly editions, at the extremely low rate of
$2, YV'r propose also to give, in this edition, a complete
synoptical.summary of the proceedings in both houses
of Congress—thus rendering the “Weekly Union” a
most valuable channel of information to all classes of
our country. But, to remunerate ns for this enterprise,
an extensive subscription list is absolutely indispensa
ble.
VVc seize this opportunity to add that some delay has
taken place in putting oar paper to press, which has
prevented its early delivery to our readers, and conse
quently circumscribed its circulation. We shall make
arrangements to remedy this defect, and to obviate ibis
objection. After the present week we 'rust that no Com
plaint will he made upon this subject.
CONGRESSIONAL REGISTER.
To addition to the foregoing, we have resolved to pub
lish, (hiring the sessions of the national legislature, a
j “ Congressional Register'' to be issued weekly, and to
contain a full report of the daily proceedings aml de
bates of both houses. Indeed, the arrangements which
we have made with the very best corps of reporters w ill
I enable us to give even morefull and extended reports
than we have produced during this session, superior as
; we claim them tobetoany preceding ones. The R egis

carefully revised by an experienced editor.and will con
stitute a complete and authentic record of the session,
i An appendix will be added, uniform with the Register,

respectable families in the State, who have furnish
ed ample testimony as to their decided excellence,
but also by tbe proprietor, who, for ten years, sui
lered all tiie gloom incident to that distressing dis

to most oilier Enters, of not proving injurious by
continued use. They contain not a simile delete- j

vigor to the stomach, bracing the nerves, cleans
ing tiie liver, promoting digestion, increasing the j
appetite,strengthening the chest and voice, reliev
ing pains, cramps, and stitches in the hr ast. They
are also rnostexcellent fur cholera morbus, habitual
constipation,sea-sickness, nausea, proceeding from |
whatever cause. In cases of general debility, it
has proved one of the best remedies, and is there
fore highly recommended to elderly people, literary j
gentlemen,students,and others olsedentary habits. >
Taken in small doses frequently through the day,
! they have checked the most violent diarrhoea, and
! likewise been administered with the happiest effect j

The proprietor of tins Alterative would most re
spectfully assure tbe public that lie has not offered
this preparation to their notice without due reflec
tion. and close and rigid study, nor until after
twelve years’experience had manifested its great
superiority over every other article of the kind.—
i and be now recommends it with confidence, luily
believing that tbe above combination of medicine
will effectually eradicate from the system a class
of disease some of vv hich have heretofore been cou

He has prescribed n 1 most every variety of

in cutaneous affections, cancerous, scrofulous and

The success ■ • > . w ith in curing bronrho

i that these dangerous and horrible diseases may be
removed with as much certainty as Fever and
Ague. He does not w ish to be understood as say
i ing that they can be cured as soon as Fever aud
Ague, but w ith as much certainty; and further, that
he has good reason for believing that tliis prepara
tion will not only i tire these diseases when formed,
! but that it destroys the \ inis or poisonous principle
lurking in the system, from which that peculiar
class of diseases, as well as that of scrofula emanate.
Scrofula —Kitsg’s Evil.
This preparation has been used in numerous cam**
1 of Scrofula, King's Evil, and scrofulous swelling*,
. and always with the most deci led success.

Rheumatism.
This preparation has been prescribed in a great
many cases of chronic rheumaisin, and in everv
1 casein which it was used until the system becam®
affected by the medicine, the disease was removed*
Gout.
A number of cases of gout have been cured by
this preparation. In one ol these cases, the man
had been afflicted with is so severely for thirteen
years as to entirely disable him from business, and
lor five months immediately previous to his taking
the Alterative he bad been confined to his room;
but before he had finished the third bottle, he was
enabled to walkabout ihe streets and soon after re
turned to his biisiners. from which lie bad so Jong
been excluded by bis afflictions.
Dropsical >weliings.
This medicine increases the powers of digestion,
excite- the absorbents into healthy exercise, bv
which watery or calcareous depositions, and all
unnatural enlargements are reduced. It imparts
tone and vitality to the whole sy-lem, removing
sick and morbid headaches,giddiness, wandering
pains and nervous affections.
In fact, in every case where in - nirine h*s
been taken for some time, no matter for wh t pur
pose, the general health of the patient has always
been improved by it.
In conclusion, the proprietor would say that some
of tb'- most astonishing cases of skin diseases, ran
cor, hr » bocele,and scrofula, have been cured by
this medicine, that have ever been recorded; but
w ant of room in this sheet precludes their publica
tion at this lime.

ami besides bore ail the characteristic marks of

without the slightest benefit, it continued to in

of saving her life, but by a painful operation, was
abandoned, which after a coMsultati'-o feminent
Physicians, was performed, Jan. Ist, id.l2, by Dr.
John Jib-a Earton, a—isted by Dr. Redman, the
i proprietor, and two ether medical gentlemen. The,
whole and entire right breast was ren:o"ed, and af
ter ex an iuation of the tumor, was pronounced by
ail present a cancer of tbe most maiigi ent charar

ble sufferings, site was enabled, though broken in
i spirit, to get about again. B he remained feeble,
and her general health was exceedingly bad, as in
i deed it h 1 been for several years before. In the
spring of 1837, upwards of five years after her breast
hail been removed, a painful tumor made its ap

arrest tin*disease. Indeed her whole body appear
[• t eil to be a mass of disease. Her case was consid

both her parents having died of Pulmonary con
! sumption. The experiment was now made with
this Alterative, h was at first given in small
doses, three times a day, and the doses very gradu
ally, hut steadily increased daily, as long as she
took it, which was about six months, and the skin
over and around the tumour was wet night and
morning with a strong solution of 1«-• 1 i:. • and Hy
| driodate Potash. The tnr.i r ontinneJ increas
ing in size for about six v. . , and was at times
very painful, when the } ;. fitly ceased alto

became soft, and then began to dimit.n h, and con
tinued gradually decreasing until every vestige of
1 disease was removed. The tumour in her left
breast, and those in her r b! axilla were also dis

appeased afterwards;and her • ral health, which
hail b« eii so had for fourteen years as to make life a
burthen, vvaseflec uallyarnl permanently restored.
