A" WORD TO COlINTIIY POSTMASTERS. We wish to remind-these gentlemen that the,law requires, that in cases where a subscriber refuses to take out his paper, or moves off, that ft is his duty to immediately inform the publisher of the fact, a failing to do which makes him liable for the subscription. Some of our subscribers liavo left tho county without paying' for ^heir papers, and in some such eases the postmasters have generously allowed persons, who were not subscribers, the privilogc of reading them. In all sit?! cases •we shall hold the postmasters liable for the subscription, as it wns clearly their duty to have informed Us of the fact of the papers not being taken out by the proper owners.

WORD TO AN INDIANA^COTKMPOni •. 1URY.' -etb 'j The Grawfordsvillo (Ind.) Roview says that the Jznquirer is no longer aDcmocratic paper. That is singular, when wc are supporting & Democratic President aud a Democratic Administration, and agree in politics with the two.Democratic Senators and a majority.of the Dom&'ratio Rcpra-. sontatives in Congress from the ikrt/w'i own State.. It also insinuates-that wo arc pursuing our present course of'supporting a Democratic President ntuba Delnooratio Administration booause wo rtfe a candidate for^tlicrPostoffiep at this piaeo.

Iho Poet'3: Dream was ncit mdVe beautiful^ than its rcpresciitation on Wednesday night. Beatrice, in Much ado about Nothing, was finely represented by Miss Speed.' She looked lor all the world like one who could say truthfully, "I had rather hear my clog bark at a crow than a man swear he love's me."—• Beatricq is a glorious dancer^:, ,, yjj'j
There were sevCral allegorical representations. ''Night" was represented by3Irs. Cumberland "Morning," by 3Iiss Mattie Vanarsdall arid there were several other allegorical representations by Miss Riley, 3Iiss Patterson, and others, as to the particulars of which, not having the honor of an acquaintance with the ladies, your reporter can say nothing. "Morning," however, was bright and beautiful as Aurora herself.
Miss Mattie Biuford appeared finely in the Bride of Lammermoor "The Lady of the Lake" was finely represented by Miss Fannie Fry Miss Helen Elston represented a Scotch lassie Miss Jennie Ramcy represented sonic beautiful person or other, we forget who aud Miss Harriet Ramcy appeared finely in propria jjcrso/ue.— Miss Mate and Sue Ingersoll appeared remarkably well, wo thought, though it is admitted' we may be partial to them. Mrs. Swcctscr, 3Irs. Garvin, Mrs. ^\assou, aud tho other married ladies were all in fine humor, nnd sustained their characters in the very best style.1

WISE O.N THE NEW ENGLAND 'FOREFATHERS." Among the letters sent to the recent New England dinner in New York, is the following by Ilenry A. Wise, of Virginia:
I must-, then, decline. But it is not for want of any respect or gratitude to the •'Forefathers'' of New England. They were solid, practical men, who looked to the real substance aud not to the shadow of things.. They were men of God, whose walk and conversation were founded on the morality of the Gospel. They were persecuted and long-suffering for the cause of religious freedom. They were brave and hardy, aud earnest and honest, and manly and persevering in maintaining human rights' by tho observance of law and order and dccency in all thlngsr. It' they were at all deluded and practiced any (delusions, it was always in their hearts and conscienGcs on the Lord's side. They were against the devjl and all his witches. Thoy^kep't the faith and labored, and. guff-, er'cd antjr.fought for it'. And thoy glorif ousl^'triumphed over their,.physical and spiritual foes, and handed down a legacy 'of liberty and law, worth preserving for all ages, at all hazards, by their descend auts. And"they, \yere_CKO:niKn.s of our. Fprefafyq-spl. Virginia,^ and in the last'

Time, events, other struggles, renewed covenants, more blpodsh'ed, greater interests, higher responsibilities^ weightier trusts, brighter hopes, grander pi-OS. pcctivc scenes, greater dread of worse disasters than could once be contemplated —all, everything which Ims grown up, or come after, 6r is. .gone, or now .is, or is hereafter tO bp',, bind us, the'heirs, cdiieirs and descendant's, of the forefathers pi this republic,, (p leach .'.tflliejr iiiorc^ than th'ejj were.bound toiiethcr. .!

If they desire to be certain that their labors conform to the wishes of the people after they shall have jead the-arguincnts for and against the parts and, the aggregate of their worlc, and formed their, opinions thereon, they will not. fail to afford them the most ample opportunity to do so.— During -the iast .seventy-five years numerous State constitutions have been framed, and, with few exceptions, they have all, been submitted to the people for.adoption or rejection. Our National Constitution when framed, was, through the scvei States, submitted to the people. So ob vious was the .propriety of such submission in the present case, that the President instructed the Territorial Governor to protect the people when voting for or against its adoption. Under his instructions, both Secretary Stanton and Gov. Walker have pledged such protcetiou and until rcccntly, and in a few quarters, no one hasquesI toned the propriety of such admission, while its wisdom is too apparent to be doubted where the will of the people is the aclcnoicledged source of all power.
MTTLEOIU'IIA'SGIIAVE. Simplicity always marks the genuine language of sorrow. It requires no pompous words to tell of withered hopes, and joys that have perished in the'.spring-time of their existence. When love's twining tendrils have been torn away from some cherished, object Of affection, and the heart is left lacerated and bleeding, the stricken mourner may give expression to the pent up fountain of grief in "the restless eloquence. There is a little grave in Green mount Cemetery, on which is placed simple uni,-with this inscription:
LITTLE ORTIIA'S GRAVE.
A rose-bush is planted by: it, and keep* watch, like a guardian, augc), over the.cherished, idol of a desolate, home. .Oh, what a volume of unwritten, sorrow is contained in tl)ose simple words, Little Ornha, a frail,, blue-eyed .flower, bloomed by tho.: way-side of life her sweot, sunny smile lighted up her happy home—a father's pride antl hope, and a mother's joy aud love. Daily she grew in beauty, til! the sparkling-ithoughts gleamed•. through the "windows of, the soul,"' and shed-their lustre over her radiant face till one day Deailr came along, with stealthy tread, and transplanted the fragile fioweret, to bloom in pcranial loveliness "clpse by the Tree of Lifo," in tho Paradise of-God.
Weep not, sorrowing mother, for thy littiq Ojipha is in a world whore sin and sorrow never coiuc, and where no tear shall ever dim her. eyes again, uoij .grief leave its tra?e upon her cherub cheek. Beyond the trials and- temptations of this weary world, and- safe from the corroding cares of lifo, she is a child.of Paradise.
Greeilniount contains the marble monu ment (L had like to have: said mausoleum) of,the. princely Catkin, and tho -tomb of theiilluBtriouSi Allen: but the studied epitaphs are colder,than the chiselled marble which speaks to posterity. I gazed upon their snowy whiteness, as they glittered in the suhliglit I cpuld not but acknowledge them beautiful but a tear dimmed my oye as I-stood by "Little Orpha'ii -Grave.? Herc waa no mimicry of sorrow, no artificial grief it was the heart's last tribute to the loved and lost* To me, it was the most interesting. spOt in Greenuiount.

The Kansas stir has been entirely supplanted by the new trouble in which the President is.so unexpectedly involved by the rash, precipitate, and unauthorized proceedings of Com. Paulding,, in (ho arrest of Gen. Walker within the territory of Nicaragua, and, 'he breaking, up of his enterprise, This incident threatens to .kindle new dissension in the ranks of the Ucmoc

The acquisition of Cuba or of some adjacent southern country, is the very best step^to calm and extinguish the discord which has for- some time disturbed the quiet of these States.. It was wisely said to Mr. ijuchauan, a fsw days ago, by a gentleman whose opinion he asked as to the^ best remedy for the Kansas trouble "Change the programme substitute Cuba for Kansas, and the Ostend Manifesto for the Lecompton, Convention." The President smiled and brightened up at an idea which went home to one of his warmest feelings and aspirations. All the troubles, disagreements and misadventures that may occur to him, in an administration which begins alread}' to be an eventful one, will be forgotten in the splendor of the realization of the aim and object of the Ostend Manifesto—the acquisition of that magnificent possession, "Cuba querida."

will caase little grief. But in the South it is very different. Tlie filibuster feeling is a very prevalent one among the warlike Southrons, and this feeling has rc-ccived a new.aud powerful impulse from tho failure of the South to secure Kansiis.as a slave State. .Southern expansion, is now the great.idea, as essential to maintain, at least an approach.to equilibrium of the North and South, to preserve the Union, and fat, draw.the South off .from, tho unwise policy of seeking to extend slavery into the Northern latitudes. The Democratic party throughout the Union will acquiesce iu this policy. .,-

There is in Pc-kirr what is termed tho Russian College. It consists of ten missionaries ol the Greek Church. These ten missionaries remain for ten years, and are then replaced by ten more. During the decade of their sojourn, they are not permitted to fill any vacancies that may bo caused by death or any other casuality. They are treated in tho Chinose"capital with great respect, and are allowed a guard of honor. Through the agency of this College, the Russian Government obtains reliable information of everything that transpires at the Court of His Celestial Majesty.

Tlie boundary line of tho two nations runs between. It is marked only by a board fcnce. They are botl»walled in and fortified. At the point all the legitimate trade of the two countriesis carried on. To Miamattschin tlie Chinese convey from the interior their teas and other goods on bullocks and camels,' and to Kyackta the Russians bring their commodities, and in this way the exchange is made.

The slogan has ceased indeed, but the Campbells «*jre comin'! D'ye hear, d'ye hear?" At that moment we seemed to hear the voice of God in the distance, when the pibroch of the Highlanders bro't us tidings of deliverance, for now there was no longer nnv doubt of the fact. That shrill, penctratiug, careless sound, which rose above all other sounds, could come neither from the advance of the enemy nor from the work of the Sappers.
