But I must klosc, and waiv mi last adoo, However tryin to feelins it may be, And git down off of the sense, for already tlie Sharp pints of the pickets begin to stick me, And make me skriage and hitch about, And threaten to tare my kinase, and make me Hollow ! Topersous 31ailing Letters to Caiifor nia ami tlie Territories of Osegoti and Wasliingtojß. Thousand of letters sent to the Pacific c..ast become dead letters. To remedy this evil*, tin* Post Office department, under the authority of Congress, has adopted as an auxiliary to ts operations, the following plan tVom s rn hum - onsly publishihg at each, and ev<q \ p st Os lice, in the Pacific region in a li t on led the ‘‘Paci sic Mail List,” the names of persovs to wliom letters have been sent by mail to > ost offices in Callifornia, and the Tt rit rims of Ore gon and Washington By this system, a let ter may be sent to any post office in the Pacific region, for a person whose location is unknown save ihe mere fact, that he is somewhere in Cal iforuia or tlie territories of Oregon and Was ington, yet, if the letter be published iu the “Pacific Mail List, ’ its ultimate reception by the person for whom it was intended, will be rendered highly probable To enable those who may desire to extend to their Pacific correspondents the advantage thus offered, the following illustration is given. Suppose it is wished to send lo the Sacra raeuto Post Office a letter for George Wilson, who emigrated to California from Pike Coun ty, Missouri, but it is feared that he may have changed his location and lienee may not receive the letter, iu this case, direct tlie letter to George Wilson (late of Pike County, Missou ri,) Sacramento California. Then in order to publish the letter in the “Pacific Mail List,” copy the address of the letter upon a piece of paper or card and enclose the card, together with a three cent postage stamp, in an envel ope, and direct the envelope to the “Pacific Mail ListNew York Deposit the letter as usual in the mail for California, and at the same time drop the en velope, containg tlie card to publish the letter. in the mail for New York. From the address _on the card thus received at the New York Post Office, the name, George W.lson, will b entered iu its appropriate place in the “Pacific Mail List,” which List is primed and sent br each mail, to each and every postmaster in California, aud the territories of Oregon ana Washington, and by them posted in.a conspic uous place in their respective offices The list being thus distributed over tlie entire Pacific region, George Wilson may at once learn from it, that a letter for him has been sent to the Sacramento Post Office. No person of a sim ilar name will receive the letter, for the ad dress on it points out tbat.it is hit ended for George Wilson (late of Pike county Missouri, Thus many letters will be received, that would otherwise be transmitted to the Dead Letter Office. The envelopes containing the advertising cards, sent to the “Pacific Mail List,” New York, pay postage like ordinary mail matter, and must be pre paid. The addresses of let ters copied on the pieces of paper, or cards should be written in a plain and distinct man ner. The Three cent po. tage stamps enclosed in the envelopes, defray theexpences of publi cation, and must not be pasted to the cards, but simply enclosed with them; in the üb-ence of postage stamps, three cent coins may be substituted. It is believed that this circular lias been drawn up so explicitly as to require no expla nations, but ‘should this prove not to be the case, post masters will take notice, that all interrogatories must be addressed to the “Pacific Mail List,” New York, aud uot to the department. >tesr*The first of these series of Lists will ac company the Mail of May sth, and will be for warded by each succeed ng mail OLIVER EVANS WOODS. Tost Orncs Department, March 5, 1856. Mr. Woods has my authority to put this plan, as above, in operation; but no responsi bility is assumed by the Department; aud ail correspondence iu regard to this arrangement must bo addressed to the “Pacific Mail List,” New York. That the public may avail itself of the advantages thus offered, Post Master.” are requested to give the circular a conspicu oas place iu their respective Offices JAMES OAMPBKL, P. M. G.

MOSELEY as a Surgeon and Phy sician, 1 deem it myduty to mention the case of my wife hoping at the same time that all persons similarly afflicted’ may be benefitted by it. In the first pint of this year my wile had several small lumps make their appearance in her breast; they continued to increase in size, until the whole breast became a diseased mass, and very painful. I procured the best medical aid in the city of Rome,and notwithstanding the earnest and faithful attention of our most skillful physi cians, she continued to grow worse and worse, until they gave the case up its incurable, and advised amputation. I was advised by many of rny friends, to visit Dr. Moseley, of Griffin, Ga„ which 1 did, and, astonishing as it may seem, he had her entirely cured within one month, and she is now in good health! \ would advise all who are afflicted with Scirrhue, and Cancerous affections to visit the Doctor with out delay, as I am satisfied by experience and observation, that be is the most skillful physician in tlieSouthern States, in the treatment of that horrible disease—cancer.

See circularand the following: The following is from a distinguished member of the med ical profession : St. Paul, January 1, 1855. Prof. O. J. Wood—Dear Sir : Unsolicited, Isend you this certificate : After being nearly bald for a long time, and having tried all the hair restoratives extant, and having no faith in any, I was induced on hearing of yours, to give it a trial. I placed myself, in the hands of a barber, and had iny head rubbed with a good stiifhrusli, and the restorative then applied, and well rubbed in, till the scalp was a glow. This 1 repeated every morning, and in three weeks the young hair appeared, and grew rapidly from August last, till the present time, and is now thick, black and strong soft and pleasant to the touch ; whereas, before it was harsh and wiry, what little there was of it, and that little was dis appearing very rapidly. I still use your restorative about twice a week, and shall soon liaVe a good and perfect crop of hair. Now if 1 had read of these things, and who has not? but have not seen hitherto any case where any per son’s hair was really beueiitted by any of the hair tonics, Ac., of the day, and it really gives me pleasure to record the result of my experience. I have recommended your preparation to others, and it already nas a large and gen eral sale throughout the Territory. The people here know its effects,and have confidence in it. The supply you sent us, as wholesale agents for the Territory, is nearly exhaust ed, and daily inquiries are made for it. You deserve credit foryour discovery ; and I, for one, return you my thanks for the benefit it has done me, for I certainly had despaired long ago of ever effecting any such result. Youts hastily, J W BOND Finn of Bond A KAllog, Druggist, St. Paul We annex a few certificates to corroborate our assertions: Carlisle, 111., June 27. 1853.
