After this was done, my informant pirksd up 3 packages, left under the edges of the skun, and handed them to the bar keeper, who taid he would put them into Ike mail portmanteau. Comment is unnecessary. Yon know, sir, tint it is contrary to law to open a mail in a room with persons who are not sworn Rgt ntsof the post office, and I know that this is done every day in the year but neither yon nor I tell how to correct thet abuses and a thousand others that might be named. One thing i erlain the post master general it not sufficiently careful in selecting his agents, nor severe in bringing them to puuuhmeot. Tour's truly, A SUBSCRIBER.

Air.

u. Oillespie, uu der whose Uir ction this lottery is placed, has manifested a promptitude of action, aud correctness of arrangement, that has sriveu general satisfaction to the managers and to the citizens nl Outplace; and what is in truth, the prima mubile of tlie undertaking, the prompt payment of pri zs have, in every instance, been met on de maud. This lact, so honorable to the integrity of Mr. G. is the surest guarautce for the good government of the succeeding classes of this lottery, yet to be drawn.

We are, however, happy to add, that the liberal and extensive encour aeoient iu the sale of tickets here and elsewhere, have yielded him a handsome remuneration for his cute! prize and exertion. Since the commencement ol the above lottery, a lottery for the completion of the Washington Canal has been revived, under a name somewhat similar to the undertaking of which we are speaking. Ou this point Mr. Gillespie wishes it to be understood, that it is a co entirely distinct Iro.n tne Grand National Lottery, and in which he has no interest whatever. One wor 1 as to tiie nature of the Scheme of the 4th class which will commence drawing on the 2d day of January next It offers the greatest di.

tribuU'di of prizes for the same number ol tickets that he has yet submitted to tlie public. Tiiirly drawings of 1000 numbers determine th fate of the chances aud the Grand Prize ol will be floating after two tuirds of the numbers are drawn. The number aud variety of the prizes, great and small, liable to come up during the whole of the JUil iys will give au aui matiou and uterest to the Lottery, aud confer a real value on every ticket up to the last hour's drawing.

Accounts from 'he East, Yest aud North, ive reached us of the utmost unprecedented damage sustiuued by die aud lei ttxe surruu country, cause I aa iaiir.ene. for off to to is (Jcstrnctioa property of duTerent description. The following are a few particulars.

The Connecticut rose teo feet in 24 hours; at Montpellier, (Vt.) the streets were inundated and the cellar were filled with water every bridge on Onion river to JJurliugton werecarried away a man, his wife aud two children in attempting to pass a causeway, overflowed with water, the horse missing the path, precipitated the chaise into deep water, and all were drowned but one child two men in attempting to save mill logs at Charleston No. 4, were upset and one of tnem drowned the loss of logs was great. On the Penobscot and its streams, we do not hear of much damage. The Belfast paper ol the 19th int. says we are informed the toll bridge at Liucolnvillc, together with a mill dam, ami about 2it00 logs werecarried away.

AtCampton aud Plymouth, N. H.ou the Merrimack, the damage was great. Little's mills in the former were entirely swept away, damage about 15,000 dollars; aud several other grain mills I'0 numberof bridges shared the same fate. tuy cattle, sheep, stacks of hay, fences, 4.C ou the intervale lands shared the commou fate. It is remarked that the Merrimack, at the above place, was higher than it had beeu known 3a years.

The Kennebec rose witli unexampled rapidity, about 10 to 12 foot. Vast quantities of lumber were wastictl away at Augusta ana uaiioweii, and miny logs from Gardiner. It is reported that all the mills aud bridges ou Sandy river have been swept away together with many cattle and sheep 00 the intervales a lulling mill was swept having in it 4000 yards of cloth, and only a bout a quarter part of it recovered the roads in many places were rendered impassable. On the Androscoggin the destruction appears be the greatest the following is from the Brunwick paper. All the biom! above the falls broke, containing logs, it is said, sufficient to supply twenty three saws for two yean, the greatest numbe ever on hand at this season of the year.

At this time the dam, or bulkhead, that secured water for seven saws, two clapboard machines and a gri mill started and carried with it about sixty lectof the Androscoggin bridge and two mills lor manufacturing clapboards owned by Messrs Ja quith and Eastman. A greater poiliou of the most expensive dam on the falls then stalled and probably cannot be repaired under nine or teu months. Fifteen saws, two grist mills a carding machine, two clapboard mills and a lath mill will be rendered useless till the dam is repaired. It seemed providenti A that the wind veered the north ward and drove a great portion of the logs on the southern shore of Merry meeting bay, of course there may be a partial saving. It a general conclusion that the loss will exceed one hundred and licentyfiee tliousand dolLxrt We witnessed passing us the relicks of a double saw mill a grist mill nod the expensive lower bridge between Durham and Lisbon over the Adroscogijiu.
