INSTRUCT’ONS.
I, Seven minute* are allowed for opening and closing j
the mails at all offices whore no particular time is spec - ;
Q»di but on railroad and steamboat routes there is to be
more delay than is necessary to deliver and receive
the hugs.
•. The mail is to be conveyed in preference to passer- )
gers .and to their entire exclusion, if its weight and bulk j
require it.
3’ Post offil'e blhnks, mail bags, and the special ngtnta, j
I ox ttie department, on the exhibition of taeircredentiai*,
j are to he conveyed without lurcher charge, on mull lines
I admitting of such conveyance.
4. Mad agents aie to he. conveyed without charge on
the principal railroad and steamboat lines, where the
size of the inuil.- and the number of the officers will re
( quire their employment bythe department; and in that
| case,a separate apartment for the assorting and safe
: keeping of the mail is to be provided hy the contractor,
under the direction of the department.
5. In all cases there is to be a forfeiture of the pay of
the trip, w hen the tr p is not run; a forfeiture of at least
one-fourth part of it when the running or arrival is so lar
behind th-m as to lose the connexion w ith a depending
mail; and a forfeiture of a due proportion old when a
grade of service is rendered inferior to that in the con
i tract. These forfeitures may lie increased into high
i penalties of higher amount, according to the nature or
i frequeucy of the failure and the importance ot the mail.
6. Fines w dl be imposed, unless the delinquency he sa
! tisfaCtordy explained in due time, for failing to take from,
or deliver at, a p>ost office, the, mail, or any part ot it; for
j suffering it to be wet, injured, lost, or destroyed; lor con
veying H in a place or manner that exposes it to depre
dation. loss, onnjury; for refusing after demand to cou
! veya mail by any coach, railroad car, or steamboat, which
■ the contractor regularly runs on the route beyond the
i specified number of trips in the contract, mid for not ar
! riving at the time set; and for setting up or running an
i express to transmit commercial intelligence in advance
j of the nrj il, api nalty will be exacted equal to a quarter's
I P a .V
j 7. The Postmaster General may annul the contract for
I repeated failures; for violating the post office laws; for
; disobeying the instructions oftlie depaitn.ent; forrufus
■ ing to discharge a carrier when required bythe depart
ment; for assigning the contract w about tiic consent of
the Postmaster General, or for setli g up or running an
express as aforesaid.
8. The Postmaster General may alter the cnntraet, and
alter the schedule, lie, allowing a pro rata increase «f
j compensation, within the restrictions imposed by law, for
| the additional service required, or for the increased
j speed, if the employment of additional stock or carriers is
i rendered necessary; but the contractor may, in such
I case,relinquish the contract, on timely notice, ifhepre
i fers it to the change. The Postmaster General may an
nul the contract or curtail the service, and pay when he
wishes to dispense with the serv te in whole or in part,
or place a higher or different grade of service on the
route, he allow ing one month’s extra pay cm the amount
dispensed with.
9. The payments will he made through drafts on post
offices or otherwise, after the expiration of each quarter,
sav in February .May, August, and .November.
50. The distances are given acccording to the best in
formation; but no increased pay will be allowed, should
they prove to be greater tbau is advertised, iflbc places
are correctly named.
H. The Postmaster General is prohibited by law frem
knowingly making a contract for the trasportation of the
mail with any person who shall have entered info any
combination, or propose l ! to enter into any combination,
to prevent the making ofany bid for a mail contract by
any other person or peisons.or who shall have made any
! agreement, orsiiall have given or performed or promised
to give or perform any consideration to do, or not to do
an v thing whatever to induce any other person not to bid
for a mail contract. Particular attention is call'd to the
28th section of the act of 1835, prohibiting combinations
to prevent bidding.
12. A bid received after time, to wp: the lOr h March
i next, at 9 a.in.,or withoutt.ie guaranty required by law 1 ,
| or that combines several routes in one sum or coinpensa
j tion, cannot be considered in i ompetition with a regular
j proposal notadjuged to be extravagant.
I 13. A bidder may offer, w here the transportation called
for in the advertisements difficult or impralicablc at cer
tain seasons, to substitute? modeofeonveyance,
or to intermit service aspeefied number of days, weeks,
or months He may propo eto omit an office that is inac
cessible, or is not on t e stage road, the railway, or at a
j steamboat landing, as the case may be; op he may offer
| to substitute an inferior mode of supply in such cases
1 He may propose different days and hours of departure
i ami arrival, provided no more runnin. time is asked, and
it is obvious that no mail connexion or other public ac
commodation is prejudiced. He may ask for more run
ning time to the trip.during a specified number of davs,
at certain seasons ot peculiarly bad reads; but beyond
these changes, a proposal for service different from the
advertisement will prevent its being considered in com
petition with a regular bid not set aside for extravagance;
and where a bid contains any of the above alterations,
their disadvantages will be estimated ifi comparing il
with other proposals.
1 4. There should be but one route bid for in a proposal.
15. The route, the service, the y early pay, the bidder’s
1 name and residence, and tbe name of each member of the
, firm, where a company offers, should be distinctly stated
1 —also the mode o 4 ' convey ance, if a higher mode than on
| horseback is intended.
16. The bid should be sent under seal, addressed to the
: First Assistant Postmaster General, w ith “Mail Proposals
I in the State of ,” written on the face of the letter ;
and should be despatched in time to bo receevcd by or
i before the tOth March next, at 9 o’clock, a. in.
| 17. The contracts are to be executed by or before the
1 Ist July next.
18. Postmasters at offices situated upon or near rail-
I roads, hut mote than eighty rods frnin a depot, will. Im
j mediately after tlielst. April next, report that fact to Ihe
department,stating their exact distance from the. railroad
depot, and how otherwise supplied with ihe mail, to ena
! ble the Postmaster General to direct the proper supply
to he made from the railroad by mail messengers, from
j and after the Ist July next.
I 19 Under the act of 3d March, 1845, the route is to he
' let to the lowest bidder, tendering sufficient guaranties
J G>r faithful performance, without reference to Ihe mode
j of transportation than maybe necessary to provide for
' the due celerity, certainty, and security of such trails
j port at ion.
j When the lowest bid proposes a mode of conveyance
that is inadequate for the route in respect to the certain
ty, security, and celerity’ of the mails, aside from any ac
commodation for travel, it will not be cntiilcd to the
route.
20. When the bid does not name a inode of conveyance,
■ twill be taken and understood to hcfurthelowestmodeof
conveyance to wit: on horeback. When it proposes to
carry according to the advertisement, and no mode of
conveyance is stated for the route in the advertisement,
it will be considered as offering only for horseback con
veyance.
21. Since the passage of the act of March 3, 1845. a
new description of bid' has been received. It specifies no
mode of conveyance, but engages to carry the mail wiih
certainty, celerity, and security, nsinsr the terms of the
law. These bids are called.from the manner in which
they’are designated on the books ofthe department, ‘ j/nr
hid." It has been decided, after mature consideration,
that a bid proposing a specific mode of conveyance of as
high a grade as two horse coach transportation is to be
preferred to the star bid. The experience ofthe depu l
ment enables it to lay down the following rules, viz :
When the mail on the route is not so large as to reqnira
two horse coach 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
render it necessary or expedient, in reference to them
alone, to provide two-horse coach conveyance, the spe
cific bid. though the highest, w ill be preferred to the stai
bid, to the extent of a moderate difference in the compen
sation, in case the difference is not such as to interfere
with the policy of the new’ law, which looks to a reduc
tion inthecost of transportation, Exceptions, however,
may he allowed where the star bid ifinnde by the present
owner of the stock on the route, and it is manifest that the
reasons for preferring the specific bid do not exist in his
case.
23. On routes of the hsghest class, where four-horse
coacli or steamboat transportation is required by the size
and importance of the mails, the preference for the spe
cific hid will be. if necessary carried to a greater extent
of difference than on 'lie inferor coach routes, subject,
I however, to the exceptions above stated.
24. A modification of a bid, in any of its essential terms
is tantamount to a new bid, and cannot be received, so as
to interfere with regular competition, aflerthe last hour
set for receiving bids. C. JOHNSON.

THE WESTERN CONTINENT,]
A Southern Family Newspaper of th* large*! size,
published every Saturday in the city of Baltimore,
by Samuel Smith df Co., Kdited by IF. T.
Thompson, author oj ‘"Major Jones'
Courtship ,” “ Chronicles of Ptne
rillef d'C. <Sf(\
Terms—Two Dollars, in advance.
F. have long regarded it as a most Immitiating rc
v v flection upon ilie South, that no proles -edly nen j
tral iamity journal has yet been sustained within her bor- j
ders. We have tested the experiment whether sueli a |
j paper could not he supported at the immediate South,
and though not wildly unsuccessful, our experience has
tan gat us that the papers of this class published in the
largo Northern ciiies, possess advantages over those of
thecountry, which, in a measure, del\ compeiiiion. Hut
here the rase is different. Baltimore, standing as t does
on the bo itior of the Southern states, is yet near enough
to the great commercial, literary and political emporium,
to he included in tile neighborhood of great American i
cities, and to enjoy all the advantages, as a radiating
point, which are possessed by either Philadelphia. Boston ;
or New York. A paper issued from Baltimore has all the |
facilities for obtaining the latest literary intelligence, as j
well as the, current literature of the day, foreign and do
mestic, that are enjoyed by the journals of the Northern |
cities. The Western Continent j* as large, as cheap, j
and can be better adapted to the wants and tastes of South
ern readers, than those Northern papers which nowdraw !
so large an amount of their patronage from the Southern 1
public.
Entertainingthese views, we have looked with confi- j
dence to the success of the Continent. Eight month’s
experience has tended to strengthen thatcontidcnce, and i
now we enterupon its publication with a firm conviction j
that all that is necessary to secure for it a circulation
equal to that of its Northern cotemporaries, is a faithful
and e nerpetic devotion of our best ahil dies to make it a
useful and entertaining Family Journal. It is our de- i
sign to make the Western Continent emphatically a
Southern family paper, that may he read with interest j
and profit by every member of a Southern family.— j
With this view, we shall draw for our literary depart- |
ntent, from the best sources.such matter as will interest

ÜBSIIK “DAILY UNION” will be published, as here

VV e purpose in future to devote a portion of ns columns
tn domestic news of general interest, and to miscellane

The “W KLKLY UNION” is issued every Saturday;
, and as arrangements are in progress to enlarge it to J
j near double its present size, we shall soon he enabled to j
j give nearly every article which may appear in the daily j
and semi-weekly editions, at the extremely low rale of !
j $2. We propose also to give, in this edition, a complete j
I synoptical summary of the proceedings in both houses j
j of Congress—thus rendering the -Weekly Union” a I
j most valuable channel of information to ail classes of j
I our country. But, to remunerate us for this enterprise, 1
i an extensive subscription list is absolutely indispeusa

We seize this opportunity to add that some delay has
taken place in putting our paper to press, which has
1 prevented its early delivery to our readers, and eonse
i quently circumscribed its circulation. Wc shall make J
arrangements to remedy this defect, and to obviate this
: objection. After the present week wetrustthat uocom

In addition to the foregoing, we have resolved to pub
lish, during the sessions of the national legislature, a

I contain a full report of the daily proceedingsand dc

1 enable us to give even morefnll and extended reports

j we claim them to be toany preceding ones. The Regis- ,

COLLETON BITTEKS,
FOR DVSPEPTK S.
THESE BITTERS are purely a vegetable
compound, aiul are offered to the pub-
I lie from t principle of benevolence, under the full
| esl conviction that they will be found a safe and
sovereign remedy for Dyspepsia. They have been
triumphantly tested not only by some of the most
; respectable Jamilies in the Slate, tv ho have furnish'
. ed ample testimony as to the>r decided excellence, |
j but also by tbe proprietor, who, lor ten years, suf- i
1 lered all live gloom incident to that distressing dis- 1
| ease. They possess th“ peculiar excellence denied
j to most other Raters, of not proving injurious by j
| continued use. They contain not a single delete- j
| ftons ingredient, and, as seen from tbe directions ■
i which accompany each bottle, may be given with
I entire safety to an infant in the month
If the Colleton is taken regularly ami pertever- |
i iogty,(w Itic It is highly important in st übborn cases,) j
■ they will, soon after the use of a few bottles, be
i found to act on the system like a charm—imparting
i vigor to the stomach, bracing the nerves, cleans- ,
j ing the liver, promoting digestion, increasing the j
appetite,strengthening the chest ami voice,-reliev
ing pains, cramps, and stitches in the breast. They
are also most excellent for cholera morbus, habitual ;
constipation,sea-sickness,nausea, proceeding from j
whatever cause. i*t cases of general debility, it |
lias proeed one of tire best remedies, and is t here- j
fore highly recommended to elderly people, literary '
gentlemen, st talents, and others of sedentary habit's. [
Taken in small doses frequently through the day,
they have checked the most violent diarrhoea, and \
likewise been administered with the happiest effect
in cholera infantum.
In all the foregoing complaints, these Bitters will i
he found effectual if persisted in, and taken accord- J
ing to the directions which accompany each bottle. 1
And although it has been testified by several that
] they are excellent in many others,yet in none other
1 than those above enumerated, is the proprietor will
j ing to vouch for their efficacy. They were prima- !
rily and solely intended to cure Dyspepsia.
I The Colleton Bitters have l>een eight years be
fore the public; and in consequence of the increas- ;
ing demand for this valuable medicine, the proprie- i
tor has entered largely into the business—bottles i
are procured having “Golleton Hitters" moulded in j
them—they are also numbered, sealed and stamp
ed with an appropriate motto. Brice i§ I per bottle. '

CANCER.
An interesting ease cured hy Jayne's Alterotren.
In the spring of 1831. a cancerous rumor appear *
ed in therttilit breast oi Mrs. Pltephe. wife of Peter
Stretch, ofSafem, N. J. It Was examined hy man?
Physicians, and was considered hy all as cancerous,
and besides bore all the characteristic marks of
one. All probable means of removing il were used
without the slightest benefit. It continued to in
i crease both rn size ami painfiilness, - until all hope
iol saving her life, but he a painful i ration, was
abandoned, which, a* -onsuitation I eminent
Physicians, was pe i - , Jan. Ist, 1832, hy Dr.
John Rhea Barton, assisted by Dr. Redman, tin*
proprietor, and two otfu-rnt (lien) gent'emen. The'
whole and entire rislit breast was remodel, and af
ter examination of the tumor, was pronounced hy
ail present a cancer of the most malignant charac
ter. In about three m ■ ihs. after enduring incredi-
I hie sufferings, she was ei bled, though tiroken in
• spirit, to g» t about again. Sffte remained feeble,
ami Iter general health was exceedingly bad. as in
deed it had been for several years before. In tho
spring of 1837, upwards of fixe years after her breast
! had been removed, a painUii tumor made its ap
pearance on the right side, immediately over the
part formerly - d by the nipple of the right
i breast, previon --•■•!:> i-ciiioval. This tumor steadi
ly increased f r >■ , lonths, and became so
painful as to dop’i • rof rest. The glands un
der the right arm • nlarged; ami scirrhiia, and
a hard, irregular, ami at times painful tumour, ap
! peared in the left breast. No operation could now
| arrest the disease. Indeed her w hole body appear
ed to be a mass of disease. Her case was consid
ered hopeless. Mi.e wasof a very scrofulous habit,
both her parents having died of Pulmonary con
sumption. The experiment was now made with
this Alterative. It was at first given in small
doses, three times a day, am! t he doses very gradu
ally, but steadily increased daily, as long as she
look it, which was about six months, and the skm
over and around the tumour vxas wet night ami
morning with a strong solution of lodine and Hv
driodate Potash. The tumour continued increas
j ing in size for about six weeks, and was at limes
very painful, when the pain suddenly ceased alio
, getlmr, and the tumour swelled out at the base,ami
became soft, and then began to diminish, and con
tinned gradually decreasing until every vestige of
disease was removed. The tumour in her left
; breast, and those in her right axilla were also dis
persed. No cancerous or scrofulous tumours ever
appeared afterwards; and her general health, w hich
bad been so bad for fourteen years as to make life a
burthen, was effer trnlly and permanently restored,
j 'Lite proprietor is in possession of the diseased
breast, ami those who choose may examine it. He
would also say that he could mention over a dozen
j cases equally interesting, wherein his Alterative
: has subdued cancerand cancerous tumours, but h«
has not room hereto record them.
i Mrs. Sarah Young, of Quinton’s Bridge, NT. J.,
i had a goitrous tumour on the left side of her xvind
pi;ie, a* large as the half of an orange, which was
cured hy using this Alterative fur about four
months.
Miss R S , South Fourth-street, Phila
