j MAIL ARRANGEMENTS. —We are informed, a- '
gain, fur the twentieth lime, that the INQT;IREI! j

on Friday. What good reason is there for this?
Oar pafierr. are regularly mailed at the Bedford '

have only failed on one occasion. And yet ev- !
ery ,vc k, or every other week at farthest, we
'are c :.-cd by everybody that takes our paper
•on route No. 2539 for its no n-dill very. The
citizens on this route have petitioned, prayed
: and begged the Department, time and again. 1
we are told, (or adai'y mail, but to . purpo.--;.
• Que half the time the mail bag is u .übie to
contain the matter, tin ] the bu'kv j -j'-t o? it, !
which 1-= generally our psners, is left out. Had
the Department changed t! ■> diy of nmiung i
from Friday to Saturday the evit wquM have |
been, t some extent, averted. But this is not

•rear the Broad Top Railroad, thrc", four ami-;
: five days after publication. This is attributed '
to the f-i t ti.it there an- only about half enough j
mail bags oa the Railroad. If the mail ur- '
; rangements were exclusively under the control
"f tint g-eat and p-.nveri'ul institution last nam
ed, we would not be surprised at it, however, j
we think that Sum should manife-! a lit- (
tie better managamcnt. Again, in Ln lon lur
ry township, lor a distance of twenty miles, i
; the people are compelled to forego ihe benefits j
; of the postal saytetn, and "the whv and the
I wherefore no one understands?'' If the Post'
; Office Department cannot, or will not, remedy I
. these evils, we hope some enterprising citizens '
will undertake to deliver the mails, regularly, ,
for what they can make out of the matter.
| THE "HARVEST HOME" IN LONDONDERRY.—
: Some fellow afflicted with an intolerable itch
fr scribbling, "scratches" himself into the Ne
gro Suffrage organ and like a veritable Dogber
ry, "writes himself down an ass," in trying to
'gin a description fa "Harvest Home" which
. Snteiy came off in Londonderry. A correspon
dent w i) was an eye witness of the perform- ,
anccs on the occasion referred to, writes us an
' acwi n. ol it, from which we condanvj these
facts: hirst. The whisky which was upon
• t!:c ground, was taken there by a L-te iiholition
man-catcher, who hinrseif vras drafted, but ran
a VVP." and was afterwards cany I t and put into
the service. He Lrough* the whisky there '*>
£.l! Xv fil- b.s ci his own iik and in crilrr to

them to dri :k. and after.vards ueil:aoded pav

clusively confined ?b the harmonious 'abolition
isi.-. who succeeded in giving each other h coup
le cf beautiful hL f -k eyes. (Black is their fa
vorite color, and black they would have it)-
, Secondly. Mr. Rollins, the imperturbable phi
losopher who thinks a Bongo nigger as intelli
gent r.3 him-elf (and there is no leilibn to doubt :
his t puiicn* violated the propriety of the ocea
' sion bj' 'making n political speech. Yfiien Mr.

sou'e one in fko crow d interrupted liini. Mr.
' Roilim raid someth'ng in reply, when the p.r
--j son who had interrupted him, got up from !,!•>
' seat. Mr. Rollins, whose firmness i ; like "the
flow cf the Miv-i- 'ppi, cr cf Niagara," was
observed to wi.ul up his oration very * Iden'y
. and to step from the .rand in any other than
the dig.ii i &::*•■•?? so peculiar to this profound
statesman and laetaphysLiaw. As to the coo-J
appetite which the SO : CH"I!MI "copperheads" dis-,
played, it only shows in n't Biry nre in good
