While in Altoona a few days ago, we called at the postoffice which is snugly housed in a new building erected by the U. S. Gov-, eminent at a cost of $150,000. While not the postmaster, the practical head of the concern is ! lleamer lloke, wlio has been as-1 sistant postmaster of that city for many years. In fact, Ream er weut with his father's family from this place to Altoona in the spring of i -2 ; and, iu the fall of that year, was" given a position in the post iltice, and he has been there almost continuously, sicce. When he recognized us, one of his old McCounellsburg neigh lxrs, he dropped his work and led us through the various apart ments of the building, and point ed out the attention Uncle Sam gives to the comfort of his em ployes aud to the efficiency of their service. What interested us most was the stamp-cancelliug machine. While it can cancel the stamp, print on the envelope the name of the postollice with the day and hour, at the rate of a thousand a minute, it seems like a very simple little piece of mech anism, aud that almost any post master might make one if he had the running gears of an old clock, u piece or two of an -old tin fruit can, and a pair of old suspenders for belting. Fulton couuty editors are not the only people that have trou bles of their own ; but they never speak of them. If a hundred of their subscribers owed them for subscription two or three years, they would never mention it, but would labor patiently on; and, though Christmas is nearing'aud everybody else will have money enough to buy a chicken for din ner, and have some ginger cakes besides, they will be content. There does seem to be a limit, however ; for an editor up in Hun .i Iringdon county last week gave way to his feelings, and this ia what ho said , "The lady (?) who yesterday called the attention of another to our patched breeches, . whereat both laughed so heartily, is in formed that a new pair will be purchased if her husband's bill is settled. It has been due ten years. Don't criticise a print er's dress too closely while you are weariug silk with money due us. Tell your husband to Bend us 111.78 and save the costs of a law suit.
