men and boys--- ; wotneu and

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.

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!

what a dreadfully:a/ow man , our:postmast

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, . , .

they expect a joke from him., rather slily,

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.

Arriving,in this chythe happy-pair put
up at the house of.v Mutual friend, and as.
soon atrzonvtnient :sent for - nminister to
make thntS4l : s;me flesh. 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. At last his rage became„
exhausted, and be burst into teare.r His
grief' oycr, better councelpre c vai.led,and he
made the best• of what' he pouhr not, help,

The clergyman •having arrived mean
time, bad been shown into another room.
As soon as a favorable opportunity oc
curred, the Couple excused themelelves
from the room,. and hurrying into the
presence of the clergyman, stood up to
take upon themselves the marriage :VOW.;
the father meantime remaining in the
company ofhis friends in blissful :ignor
ance of the events transpiring in tho next
room.
The efforts to entertain him were quite
euneessful for the time f butdie suddenly
started up and opening the door between
the two rooms, he disclosed to his own
wondering, gaze his daughter and Fisher
standing hand Au hand Wore -the - gen tle-
Flail with a 'White ^ pravai, and heard the
concluding words of` the ,ceremony 7 ".l

Polk took occasion to refer pleasantly to.
the small• difference of opinion existing be
