The San Francisco Post Office BY J. BAYARD TAYLOR. A day or two after my arrival, the steamer Unicorn came into the harbor, being the third which had arrived without bringing a mail. These repeated failures were too much for even a patient people to bear, an indignation meeting in Portsmouth Square was called, but a shower, heralding the rainy season, came on in time to prevent it.

Finally, on the last day of October, on the eve of the departure of another steamer down the coast, the Panama came in, bringing the mails for July, August, and September, all at once! Thirty-seven mail-bags were hauled up to the little Post Office that night, and the eight clerks were astounded by the receipt of forty-five thousand letters, besides uncounted bushels of newspapers. I was at the time domiciled in Mr. Moore's carret

from a whole community for three

months, the rush from all sides to supply the void Was irresistible. In the afternoon, a partial deliv ery was made to the owners of private boxes. It was effected in a skilful way, though with some danger to the clerk who undertook the opening of the door. On account of the crush and destruction of windows on former occasions, he ordered

sed, but on his counter-refusal to unlock the door, complied with some difficulty. The moment the key was turned, the rush into the little entry was. terrific; the glass faces of the boxes were stove in, and the wooden partition seemed about to give away. In the space of an hour the clerk took in postage to the amount of $G00: the principal firms frequently paid from $50 to 100 for their correspondence. We toiled on till after midnight of the second niajht, when the work

and initiated into all the mysteries of counting, classifying, and distrib-

at noon the next day. So we crept up to our blankets in the garret,

worn out bv fortv-four hours of

uting letters.

The Post Office was a small frame building, of one story, and not more than fortyfeet in length. The entire front, which was graced with a narrow portico, was appropriated to the windows for delivery, while the rear was divided into three small

apartments a newspaper room, a

private office, and kitchen

their chairs to the table where their mother was sitting, and began to arrange the seeds they had been gathering, the remembrance of the tree came upon them. 'Mother,' said Mary, 'you may give these seeds to cousin John, I never want another garden.' 'Yes,' added George, pushing the papers in which he had carefully folded them toward his mother, 'you may give them all away. If I could find some seeds of a tree that would never fade, I should like then to have a garden. I wonder, mother, if there ever was such a garden.' 'Yes, George, I have read of a

garden where the trees never die. 'A real garden, mother?' 'Yes, my son. In the middle of the garden, I have been told, there

ish letters, and a narrow entry at one end of the building, on which

faced the private boxes, to the number of five hundred, leased to mer

chants and others at the rate of

$ 1,50 per month. In this small space all the operations of the office were carried on. The rent of the building was 7,000 a year, and the salaries of the clerks from 100 to $300 nvjnthlv, which, as no spe

cial provision had been made by government to meet the expense, effectually confiued Mr .Moore to these narrow limits. For his strict and conscientious adherence to the law, he received the violent censure of a party of the San Franciscans, who would have had him make free use of the government funds. The Panama mail-bags reached the office about nine o'clock. The doors were instantly closed, the win

dows darkened, and every preparation made for a long siege. The attack from without commenced about the same time. There were knocks on the doors, taps on the

windows, and beseeching calls at

the corners of the house. The in

terior was well lighted; the bags were emptied on the floor, and ten pairs of hands engaged in the assortment and distribution of their contents. The work went on rapidly and noiselessly as the night passed away, but with the first streak of davlight the attack com

menced again. Every avenue of

along the portico, which jarred the whole building, and kept us painfully awake. This game was practiced for a week after the distribution commenced, and was a greater hardship to those employed in the office than their daily labors. One morning about a week after this, a single individual came about

midnight, bringing a chair with him, and some refreshments. He planted himself directly opposite the door, and sat there quietly all night, it was the day for dispatching the

Monterey mail, and one of the clerks

got up about four o clock to have

it in readiness for the carrier. On

opening the door in the darkness

he was confronted by this man, who, seated solemnly in his chair, immediately gave his name in a loud

A Child's Dream of a Star. There was once a child, and he strolled about a good deal, and thought a number of things. He

had a sister who was a child, too,

and his constant companion. These two used to wonder all day long. They wondered at the beauty of the flowers; they wondered at the

height and blueness of the sky:

they wondered at the depth of the j 'Oh, sister, I am here!

the long rows in which they stood,

and fell upon the people's necks,

and kissed them tenderly, and went

awav with them down avenues of

light, and were so happy in their

company, that lying in his bed he

wept for joy,

lsut there were many angels who

did not go with them, and among

them one he knew. The patient face that once had lain upon the bed

was glorified and radiant, but his heart found out his sister among

all the host.

His sister's angel lingered near the entrance of the star, and said to the leader among those who had

brought the people thither. 'Is my brother come?' And he said 'No.'

She was turning hopefully away, when the child stretched out his arms and cried, 'Oh sister, I am

here! Take me! and then she turned her beaming eyes upon him, and it was night; and the star was shining into the room, making long rays down towards him as he saw it through his tear. From that hour forth, the child looked out upon the star as on the home he was to go to, when his time should come; and he thought that he did not belong to the earth alone, but to the star too, because

of his sister's angel gone before. There was a baby born to be a

brother to the child, and while he

was so little that he never yet had spoken a word, he stretched his tiny form out of his bed and died.

Again the child dreamed of the

opened star, and of the company of

angels, with their beaming eyes all

turned upon those people s faces.

Said his sisters angel to the

leader: 'Is my brother come?'

And he said. 'Not that one, but

another.'

And the child beheld his brother's angel in her arms: he cried,

made tHe lovely wrorld. They used to say to one another sometimes, supposing all the children upon earth were to die, would the flowers, and the waters, and the sky be sorry? They believed they would be sorry. For, said they, the buds are the children of the flowers, and the little playful streams that gambol down the hill sides are the children of the water;

and the smallest bright specks,

and seek in the

sky all night, must surely be the children of the stars; and they would all be grieved to see their playmates, the children of men, no more. There was one clear shining star that used to come out in the sky before the rest, near the church spire, above the graves. It was larger and more beautiful, they

thought, than all the others, and every night they watched for it, standing hand in hand at a window. Whoever saw it first cried out, "I see the star!" And often they cried out both together, knowing so

well when it would rise, and where,

him, and the star was shining.

He grew to be a young man, and

was busy at his books, when an old

servant came to him and said:

'Thy mother is no more. I bring

her blessing on her darling son!

Again at night he saw the star,

and all that former company. Said

his sister's angel to the leader: 'Is my brother come?' And he said, 'Thy mother!'

'A mighty cry of joy went forth through all the star, because the

mother was re-united to her two

children. And he stretched ou

his arms and cried, 'O, mother, sis

ter, and brother, I am here! Take

me!' And they answered him, 'No

Then comes a messenger slyly to the back door. 'Mr. Eendshis compliments, and says you would oblige him very much by letting me have his letters; he won't say anything about it to any

body.' A clergyman, or perhaps a naval officerfollows, relying on a white cravat or gilt buttons for the favor which no one else can obtain. Mr. Moore politely but firmly refuses; and 80 we work on, unmoved by the noises of the besiegers. The excitement and anxiety of the ittiblic can scarcely be told in words.

three or four clerks. Several persons made large sums by acting as agents, supplying the miners with their letters, at $1 each, which included the postage from the Atlan

they were turning round to sleep, thev used to say, 'God bless the star!' But while she was still very young, oh, very, very young, the sister drooped, and came to be so

weak that she could no longer stand in the window at night; and then the child looked sadly out by himself, and when he saw the star, turned around and said to the patient pale face on the bed, 'I see the star!' and then a smile would come upon the face, and a little weak voice used to say, 'God bless my brother and the star!' And so the time came, all too soon! when the child looked out

alone, and when there was no face on the bed; and when there was a little grave among the graves, not there before; and when the star made log rays down towards him, as he saw it through his tears. Now, these rays were so bright and they seemed to make such a shining way from earth to heaven, that when the child went to his solitary bed, he dreamed about the star, and dreamed that, lying where he was, he saw a train of people taking up that sparkling road by angels.

MOFFAT'S :

Life Pills and Phcenix Bitters. The Medicine, have near been before the mrbIje for a period of PUT KEN YXAES. a4 florins; that time have maintained a high characW in almost every part of the globe for their ezlraeroinary and immediate power of reatorinr perieet health to persons ufTerina; nnder nearly every kfod f disease to which the human frame m liabia. HI HAN7 THOUSANDS f ertificated instances, they have even resoied sufferers from the very verge of aa OnUrnely rraya, after all the deceptive noatnunt of the day had ot. terly failed; and to many thousanda they bays permanently secured that omfcrrm enjoyment of health, without which life itself is bnt a partial blessing. So great, indeed, has their efficacy nrrahably and infallibly proved, that it has appeared scarcely leas than miraculous to those who were acquainted with the heantif any philosophical pnnciples upon which they are compounded, aad apoa which they consequently act It was to thai manifest and sensible action in purifying the springs and channels of life, and enduing them with ranewed tone and rigor, that they were iajdebtad tot

their name. Unlike the host of pernicious quaefceriea which boatitof vegetable ingredients, the T.TVft HEDIfjnnSS " purely aiid solely vegetable f aad ooatajn neither MerduTJ, Dor AntilROQy, nor Arfnic, nor any other mineral, in any farm whatever. They are entirely composed of extracts fears rare and powerful plants, the virtue of which, though long known to several Indian tribes, and recently to soma eminent pharmaceutical chemists, are al together unknown to the ignorant pretenders te medical science ; and were never before administered in so happily efficacious a combination. The first operation is to loosen from the coats af the stomach and bowels the various imparities and crudities constantly settling round them ; and to femore the hardened feces which collect in the convolutions of the small intestines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave snob collected masses behind to produce habitual Costiveneat, with all its train of evils, or sudden Diarrhoea with its imminent dangers. This fact is wsll known to all regular anatomists who examine tbe buman bowels alter death ; and hence the prejudice of these well-informed men against the quack medicines of the age. The second effect of the VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES is to cleanse the kulneya and the bladder ; and, by this means, the liver and lungB, the healthful action of which entirely depends upon the regularity of the urinary organs. The blood, which takes its red color from the agency of the liver and lunsa. be for it passes into the heart, being thus purified by them, and nourished by food coming from a clean stomach, courses freely through the veins, renews every part of the system, and triumphantly mounts the baansr of health in the blooming cheek. The following are among tha distDwuing variety of human diseases in which the VEGETABLE LITE MEDICINES well known ts be infal

lible ;

DYSPEPSIA, hy thoroughly cleansing lbs first

and second stomachs, and creatine a flow of pure

healthy bile, instead of the stale and acrid kind ;

FLATULENCY, Lou cf Apptlite. Hemrthmn, Headache, RettUtnett, Ill-temper, Ajutiettf, Languor, and Melancholy, which are the peneral

symptoms of Dyspepsia, will vanish, as a natural consequence of its cure.

CottlTeiiesS, y cleansing the whole length of the intestines with a solvent process, and without

violence : all violent purges leave the bowsb costive within two days. Diarrhrfia and Cholera, hy removing the sharp acrid fluids by which these complaints ars

occasioned, and by promoting the lubricative secretion of the mucous membrane. Fevert of kinds, by restoriug the Meod to a regular circulation, through the process of perspsralion in such cases, aad the thorough eolutioa af all intestinal obstruction in others. The Lira Midicict have been known t cure BHETTMATISM permanently in three weeks, and GOUT in half that time, by removing local inflammation from the muscles and ligaments of the joints. Dropsies' of all kinds, by freeing and strengthening the kidneys and bladder : they operate most delightfully on these important organs, and heac have ever been found a certain t-, for the worst cases uf U RAVEL, jsn tbe tarsinss ' ' Alao 'Wormi, by dislodging from 'the taming of the bowels the slimy mailer to which these creatures adhere. At?rmn. and COMuTaptioil, hy relieving the air-vessels of tbe lungs from the mucous which even slight colds will occasion, and which, if not removed, becomes hardened, and produces these

dreadful diseases. Scurry, XJleen, "d Inveterate Sortu, br the perfect purity which these LIFE MEDICINES give to the blood, and all the humors. . Scorbutic Eruptiom and Bad Complexions, hy their alterative effect upon the fluid thai feed the akin, and the morbid state of which occasions all eruptive complaints, sallow, cloudy, and other disagreeable complexions. The use of these Fills for a very short time will effect an entire curs of 8ALT RHEUM, and a striking improvement in the clearness of the skin. COMMON COLDS and INFLUENZA will always be cured by one doee, or by two even iu the worst cases. PILES. As a remedy for this most distressing and obstinate malady, the VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES deserve a distinct add omphalic recommendation. It is well known to hundreds in this city, that the former proprietor of these valuable Medicines was himself afflicted with this complaint for upwards of THiTT-rm teirs ; and that he tried in vain every remedy prescribed within the whole compass of rhe Materia Mediea He however at length tried the Medicine which now offered to the public, and be was cured in s very short time, after his recovery had been pro. nounced not only improbable, but absolutely impossible, by any human means. FEVER AND AGUE. For this scourge of the western country these Medicines will be found a safe, speedy, and certain remedy. Other medicines leave the system saoject to a return of tbe disease a cure by these medicines is permanent TRY THEM, BE SATISFIED, AND BE CUBED. Bilious Fevers and Liver Complaints. General Debility, Lo" ' Ammt, aki Dmasas or Fihales these medicines have been used with the most beneficial results in cases of thai description : Kino's Evil, and Scsofula, in its worst forms, yields to the mild yet powerful action ol these remarkable Medicines. Night Sweats, Nbsvods Dmiijtt, Niavocs Cohtlawt- of all kinds, Palpitation er th Hiart, Paiirrtai Colic, are speedily cured. HERCURIAL DISEASES.

A single trial wili place them beyond the reach of competition, m the BEAREFLLf" COUNTERFEITS. Several have lately been discovered, and their nefarious authors arrested, both in the city of New York and abroad. Buy of no one who is not an aornoajsaw A Pp'ared and sold by Dr. W. B.
