Too often the nostmaster allows any one to handle the mail matter, without in.' tending to do wrong. This should not be done; and further, it should be remembered that no one has the riaht to read another person's paper any more than to read another's letter, without consent, !and . the fact that papers are often delivered to subscribers alter tney nave Deen almost litearlly worn out by hand ling, and that too some days after it should haveJbeen delivered to the owner," is sufficient evidence that this habit is indulged in. various reasons are Given for the-; improper delivery'of papers; but we feel,confi' dent that the postmasters througn out the couutry can greatlyiielp the publishers, and at the same time better serve the public, if they will only be more careful in the handling and delivering the mail matter, Where they do not exist, let pigeon holes properly lettered be provided, and do not let the a general public handle anything that belongs to others. - The President has accepted the resignation of Gen.

Speaker Webster took the chair and made a personal explanatian of his ac tion yesterday, involving his vote both as Member and Speaker on the Railway Commission bill, saying that the only precedent he could find was on his side, that being in the vote to remove Hie cap ital from Brjnswick to Wilmington.

The city was startled yesterday by the announcement that the young ladies of the town had taken in hand the high hat business, and that resolutions had been unanimously adopted sympathizing with me young gentlemen ana otners wno have to be tortured by high hats in front of them at the opera. The meeting was promptly called to order, Miss Consideration presiding, and on motion, the following resolutions were adopted with but one dissenting vote : Whereas, in view of the fact that we intend to attend the Opera House cn the occasion of the appearance ot M'lle Rhea, oh Monday night; and Whereas, we deem it our duty to add as much to the pleasure of othe.'s as we may expect to enjoy ourselves, and Whereas, we have noticed that our hlgb hats (on which is generally perched a lovely bird with much, but variagated piumage, calculated not only to obscure vision, bat by the reflection of -the bril- liant ravn to ininm ih a -An.i. nerves) JsafsaaLl'st Reached the altitude whicfeJ. wage xrom any one wno may percnauce nave a seat in rear or one or tnem, ana Whereas, Christian charity and the Golden Rule both cry out against our continuing to increase our height at the expense of oar neighbors comfort; there fore, be it most solemnlv Resolved That we will all attend the Opera House on Monday night, when that distinguished artiste M'lle Rhea will appear, and we bind ourselves to appear witnout our nigh bats, ana mdeea to go without any at all if the weather will permit. Resolved, That we hereby urse our sisters to follow our example, and to do all m tneir pomer to aid us in breaking down the custom of wearing high hats at the opera. Resolved, That a copy of these resolu tions be published in our city papers, and that a copy of them be forwarded to the families of any of the afflicted, and that a copy be sent to M'lle Rhea, with the request that she will use her best endeavors to have the spirit of these reso lutions carried out, both in the interest of humanity and Christian charity, wherever she may be. Asheville girls are all such pretty and mighty loveable it is hard to decide whether they are more celebrated for their personal beauty, their engaging mannen, or their general good sense. They keep step with the young men, to the music of the times, and never lag in needed social reforms which promote the comfort and happiness of others as well as their own. They will follow the ex ample of the girls of Lynchburg to-night at the Amateurs' performance for the benefit of the Hospital. Now girls, won't you ?

Annette Harahoux for forging the former's name to a check for 1.000 francs". The defense of the woman is that a liason has existed between her and the abbe since she was 15 years old, and that, seeing that he was tired of their relations toward each other, she induced the abbe to siga the check while drunk.
