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.

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.

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 and entertain the mind, without offending the taste or j corrupting the morals of our readers. Pains will be taken to give the latest intelligence on nil subjects of interest to the general reader, to the exclu sion of the vast amount oflocal matter, such as personal ! gossip, police reports, theatrical and other criticism-, which make up so large a portion of the staple of some of i the popular weeklies of the North. In a word, though we shall endeavor to make our paper interesting to all, i our chief aim shall be to adapt it lo the wants and tastes j ofthe people ofthc 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 lying more upon the intrinsic merits of our paper, ; than on any promises we might make in a prospectus, ; wc will close by appealing to the readers of the South and West for a share of that patronage which they so j liberally bestow upon the overgrown weeklies of the j North. Terms —The Western Continent is printed on a mam moth sheet of3o by 41 inches, on fair type, and securely mailed to subscribers, at Tw'O Dollars per annum, t n advance.

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.

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 delphia, w’as also cured of an enlargement of the. throat, which filled the entire spaee between the chin and breast-bone, ami extended around on each side of her neck to behind her ears, and from her ears to her shoulders, and produced awful de formity. It commenced growing when she was hut five years old. and continued gradually to in crease until she was nineteen, at which time she commenced using this Alterative, which she took tor seven months, whieh entirely reduced the en largement; and she has now as smooth and pretty j a neck as can be found.
