Kegs and barrels—nail boxes and soap boxes—austomeri and letter writers— men and boys--- ; wotneu and _dogs—the box stove and the departrnentletter box es—sre all mingled at the postoffiee 'estab lishment with picturesque. incongruity.— Of a close, wintry evening, the apartment is redolent of savors unnumbered and in describable. row of men sit perched tipon4he smooth-faced counter; a row of boys, and men; too, sit on boxes and nail kegs opposite the stove • whistling idlers stand and stare at, the floe and pop han dles so nicely balanced overhead, possibly calculating if they would " hurt" much if they shotiid fall on their crowns; the iron stove roars, arid growls, and sputters, from being frequently stirred up with sticks; little boys come in every few min utes and look Up into the expressionless faces of the .meti sitting around idly—or listening attentively, with open mouths, to what they happen to be gossiping about—and then run uneasily out again ; in the solemn pauses, the dull and heavy tickings of a wooden wheeled Counecti cut clock, perSthed ilp among the snuff jars and preserve pots, sound like Fate solemnly notching off Time, as. it passes; now and then one of them with an aeuter sense of hearing (or longer ears perhaps than tbe rest,)' lifts his head and announ ces that the " stageis coming;" and, like the turning over of your hand, all present get up and shake - themselves out against the arrival of the government messenger and i!he fetching of the mail bags. Their wives at hottie, poor women ! else bow _would the affairs of the house get ~on ? They must net go a gadding.; but the lords—they must sit aroundin the postoffice till they have to come home for patches to their trousers' seats; and not a Word of complaint must be uttered against_it,s - Well; slid the mail-ciiach rattles up.— The heavy ratting of the wheels makes music against tle.side of the meeting liciniaer and fills..the_ town with the nines of its warning. The postoffice door opens and forth steps a boy to take the mail. The cluttered little office is instantly in a • hubbub. , Every eye iaturned on the mail bag and postmaster. At this particular moment the latter is at the zenith. The bystanders watch him intently as he ernp. ties ,the responsible pouch of its contents., They CoUnt up every package parcel and newspaper that, comes , tt; 6;114 and ap pear aslnuch pleased with what-they-dis cover as children 4relover the miscellane oaseontents of their Christmas stockings. Many of those nearest the counter, and those who, by reason of age or property value, feel "privileged" in the place, ven ture-to take a piece or two.of the mail matter into their hands, which - they pro ceed to "heft" and make shrewd compu tations about. Some of the more forward lads crowd up under the men's elbows; and you, can find an odd bead here and an odd body there, and a spare leg or arm somewhere else, whieh ; anatomically ar -ranged, woald fuirly resent ,vOu with the manners cominon to country boys in the' postoffice at the hour when the mail ar rives. In good time, the contents of the bag are all assorted; that is to say, after waiting, and waiting and waiting! would astonish an ,old liiollauder himself; what a dreadfully:a/ow man , our:postmast er. is; the more -there, is pressing upon him tbr dispatch, the. less lie is .actually 'able to accomplish.

He has the mother wit to• keep a handful of stray old Congressional Reports,bound and lettee'd,, on the dusky shelf. at his back—as well as a more solid looking co py of the Statutes, in imposing calf; and with this legal stock in trade, he sets the town at defiance. Even Goldsmith's schoolmaster is no match foi• him in the line of " argiting still." Not even a mem ber of the President's Cabinet can give an opinion with more pragmatic precisfon,or deliverhiroself with greater assarnnee of the intentions of the august Washington authorities. National politics take their local color ing by being passed through the rather opaque medium of his official commenta ry. If a Eingle , man conteniplates so reckless' a step as party backslid ing or defection, he of all the rest is close behind him to make him quake in wijat ever clothes he happens to have on.. Thus does the postmaster practically become - the centre ()flown 'patronage and town consequence.. All - look up to him as they'do to the village flag-itaff from which the "Stars and stripes" .are in the habit of waving. . The women either like' or dislike him, and that very decidedly. The younger por tion, however, are careful to drop no syl lable that can reach 14 postmaster's fam ily, and so make infinite trouble for them selves, . , . 'When they trip across into the office, they expect a joke from him., rather slily, about their distant. correspondents, which alioWs with what Studious thoroughnesi he informs himself, and'wbat a memory, Passing all wonder, he has, Indeed, it af fords him intense satisfSetion to poke fun at'the• girls about their' beaux, and to tease them with intent to draw forth still more of their little love secrete. The Course of True Love. A 'somewhat serio-comic affair . occnrred in this city, which is almost too good tyt lose, and we jot down the 'incidents as they were told to ne by one who knew all the circanistances. In the sedate little burg of Watertown, there lives a prosperous, tradesman whom we'call Kuhn. Like other tradesmen in good CircuMstances, Kuhn has a daughter with no mean pretensions to beauty, and no scanty share of what are known as ac- Conaplishments. It was, no wonder, there fore, that her society „should be sought by a uumbsr of ten&.# hearted members of the sterner sex. Aniong these was a clerk—whose name will stand upoti our pages -as Henry Fisher—nn American Tetiton possessed of, little of this World's geods i 'but a; goodly share of enterprise, and:ivithal a man'of sterling good sense and unquestionabi,- integrity. He 'wait pleased with the appearance and ac pire ments.of fair %Miss 'Klatt, and paid dili gent, attentions to her. She gladly ae. cepted them, being able to: see: through the poor, exterior and discern the true man within. , Fisher proposed, wds ado cepted, • and with a heart overflowing with joy at, the ,prospect of.. t 1 speedy union with the idol of his Thoughts, ho applied to-the father for-his consent. But alas for his hopes! Instead of meeting, as he expected, a ready assent, he was abrupt ly told that Such a marriage could not for a moment be thought ofond he was per emptorily =forbidden to have any inter course with Helm: . ' With a heart ea neeilY baretinewith grief as it had:but an boar before been nearly bursting with jay,' Fisher sought out,, his love andtold her the Pad news; But far from feeling depondent and giv ing pp in p ,despair, as be expected, sue seught,tp cheer lifin With - , loving words, and,prainisei.of eternal devotion.

The %tide groom, together with to few friends who were cognizant, of the cirournstances'of the case, were seated in n room to await the arrival of the olergyman,)when - a vio lent ring was heardiat the door. Fisher, who suspected the truth, insisted upon going to,the door. His worst fears wero realized,. for there stood the iense fattier of the bride, who bad got wind •of the af fair, and came on to the city - on thomext train, almost foaming with rage. Seizing Fisher by the throat,,The frantically de manded his daughter. , The' young Man, summoning all his, self-possession, as calm ly as was possible under the eiromnatart nes, Laid Kuhn that; he would• show him his daughter. Taking him into the par lor he introdueedeMiss. Kuhn to him as Mrs. Fisher. - •Perfectly durniciunded, Mr. Kuhn stood. fora moment Scarcely know ing what to do.. At last ho broke out and poured a.-torreut.: of invectives -Upon the heads of his daughter and Fisher,-charg ing,thein4ith, the basest ingratitude in thus disobeying. him. The rest of the company, who fortunately saw •through the young man'ascheme, tried 4o console the-old gentleman. with the reflection that wink was done &old not be undone; But ho refused, to, be comforted, - and altern ately upbraided, those • who had• aided. or countenanced the .clandestine match and the patties to it.
