mation of Postmasters who have not studied
the Post Office Laws relating to newspapers,
and to point out their duties and . responsibili
ties relating to persons who neglect or refuse to
lift their pai erg *from the office, we direct
their attention to the following provisions :
Whenever a person, to whom a newspaper is
regularly addressed, neglects or refuses to take
said newspaper from the Post Office within a
reasonable length of lime,it shall he the duty
of the Postmnster, at the office where such Inv
per is not lilted, to give written notice to the
publisher of the fact, setting forth the reasons
so far as they mar be known to him.
The mere return of a newspaper marked 're.
fused 'or not lifted,' is not sufficient notice,
and the - publisher is not obliged to pay any at
tention to it. The following is the form of a
legal notice
(S'ante of Postoflice and date.)

This notice most be mailed to the publisher
and franked by the Postmaster, I f the pub•
lisher continues to send the paper, after being
thus notified,the Postmaster may sell the paper
for the postage ; but where no notice has been
given, or where the Postmaster has neglected
sending the same, he is liable for the subscrip•
lion, from the time the paper wee refused or
not lifted, and the publisher can collect the
amount front him the saute as from a regular
subscriber.
PRZSENTATION.—We have been shown a
magnificent silver snutrbox, beautifully erne ,
molted, with this inscription on the same--
"David MeMurtrie from Bryan, Gardner Sr, Co.,
upon his retiring from their firm, May let 1859.'
It is a fitting testimonial or the high esteem in
whirls our townsman Major MeMurttio, is held
by the remaining members of the firm, and a
just criterion of the universal respect which
he receives from our community at large, as a
perfect gentleman and an honest man. We
give below, the correspondence on the Object :

IMITATION.
There are few traits so general in operation,
and powerful in effect, as the disposition to copy
the actions, language, &c., of each other. We
see this in all grades of human nature, and yet
the particular cause of it varies according to
circumstattees, and is different in minds which
are unlike. In some people it springs from
complaisance and civility-in order to gain for the
present moment the goodwill of those around
them. In others, fear is the prompter, but iu
a far greater number it arises from a false
shame or dread of being thought eingular
among men. According to the extent of its
influence upon our outward character and In
ward proclivities is our life—as a whole—de
veloped. The contemplation of it as an aid to
education has been as a general thing far too
much neglected. Only think—that the words
or actions of one man may by its means change,
and rule a whole community I Should we not
be very careful to show a righteous example?
If we take is general view of society in the sev
, aral ages of the world, or confine our vision
merely to the manners, usages and laws of the
nations 71010 inhabiting the several quarters of
the earth we must notice that metier° very much

in spite of all the boasted advance of civilian.
tion. Even without history to guide our re•
searches it would, to many seem increditable to
what a degree man is capable of deviating
front the Creator's laws—" after whose image
he was created." Or that beings endowed alike
with reason, as well us an internal guickshould
differ so much more from each other in dispo
sition, thoughts, acts, &c., than does one spe
cies of annuli in size, !colts and natural in
stinct, &e., from one of another kind. In judg
ing upon inportant matters, this fact is very
singular, for we might naturally expect unifor
mity of opinion and practice upon points 'nivel•
ving momentous consequences. To what ngen
cy then, if not to that prolific source of error
' into which imitation is oft converted, can this
astonishing variety be ascribed? Between
really natural or instinctive propensities we can
find no injurious difference, sued that which
makes the most important dissimilitude is the
standard fee the regulation of the conduct.—
Reason should here be consulted first, the opir,
ion of our neighbor next, futd then we should
correct and amend these by that " sure word of
prophecy " which Christ came to direct us to ;
—" the word nigh unto the heart, and in the
mouth," "the light which ettlighteneth every
comprehent ..be scourge per.
seention has been raised against them--still
to them we are indebted.
I have as yet only considered the effects of
imitation BA I);vratnig upon society where the
majority aro 4upposed to throw their weight
into the wrong scale. However powerful an
auxiliary the contrast of vice to virtue may be,
I teach not the maxim "do evil that good may
come." If in our land we do not find alarming
evils arising from imitating other nations, I
am sorry to acknowledge, that it to only bedtime
such depravity is not note fashionable. Al
ready luxury has east her treneh about us, and
in some eases laid seige to our virtue. If we
have not streng th to resist these alluring prim
! ices when their tendencies lead us into small
irregularities, how can we boast of superiority
to others more corrupt? We way soon be as
bad as they. Our subject opens a vast fidd
for profitable, and interesting meditation, but
I can only insert a few reflections here.
Firel. Knowing to what an immense degree
the reason of man is capable of being warped
from original rectitude, we nifty at once rec
ognize the need ofdivine revelation as a spiritu
al guide. 0 that we would the bettereling to it.
Secondly. From a belief in the power, and
influence of example, we should learn not only
to avoid the evil itself; but the appearance of it
that we canon not "our brother to offend."
InTlly. When we see how uncertain an in
dex the words, and actions of men are to their
real character, the absurdity of adopting such
as a standard, becomes self evident.
Melly. When we reflect upon how often the
motives of those who, with good intent ions,have
deviated from the 'straight and narrow way"—
are misunderstood, we may learn to view with
charily the scruples of tender consciences.—
