Subscribers to the Register at different postoffices in this county, have complained to us of the non-reception of their papers. In some cases the Registku was received a week or more after the publication day. and so thotonghly used np from handling that it could not be read; in other cases, numbers were mlsssed entirely. We desire that each subscriber should receive hjs paper regularly, and we are imrtleularly attentive in mailing mir paper, and there is, no mistake so far as we are concerned every paper I mailed at this postofflce on tlie morning of publication, and sub scribers at Tangent sliould get tlieir paper the same day. A postmaster has no right to let parties gn into the office and take subscriber's papers tlierefrom, open and read them, eveu if they do not take them out ot the office. If this has been the cus tom In any of the postoffices, it is wrong. unlawful, and the postmaster tlmt will per mit It is not qualified to All the office and deserves to be fined heavily and turned out of office. Ami we sav now. once tor all, if tliere are any more complaints brought to us of this diameter, we propose to take such stcis as will "regulate" tlie it- master complained of most effectually. The Fire Tuesday Slorulair. Between twelve and one o'clock Tuesday moining a tire broke out in in W. C Baird's house. 011 the bank of the canal emptying into the Calipooia, occupied by Mi. M. L. Hasbrouck. None of tlie fami ly were nt home at tlie time. Owing to 1 lie terrible condition of the streets the hauling of I lie fire engines, especially tlie steamer, to the region of tlie fire was slow and !a!orious indeed, and the fiie had a most excellent chance to get under full iieadway before tlieir arrival. Tlie build ing was pretty effectually used up, al though as soon as the boys got tlie machine to work the fire succumbed. Mr. Has- brouck lost about all his furniture, cloth ing. etc.. a heavy loss indeed, as he Is a worthy and deserving young man who lias but lately moved Into our city. Loss on the building estimated nt $500 no insur ance. We presume tlie lire caught from a defective flue. Mr. Il.'s Ios, $ 100. Jewelry at Wholesale Irlee.

Last Tuesday says the Lafayette Courier, John Clark, proprietor ot tlie Vox Populi saloon, was arrested for allowing minors in his place of business and fined $20 and costs.

A Cbrfataaaa Prpnesy. - As Christmas Day oomei this year upon Thursday, the following quota tion from an ancient MSS. iu the Brit ish Museum is pertinent for publication at the outset of winter aa a prophesy of coming event the approaching year: If Xmas day on Thursday be, A windy winter ye shall see Windy weather in each week. And hard tempests, strong and thick ; xne summer snail do good ana ury. Corn and beasts shall multiply : Tliat year is good for lands to till. Kings and Princes shall die by skill ; If a child born that day shall be. It shall happen right well for he ; Of deeds lie shall be good and stable, ' WIseiof speech and reasonable; Whoso tliat day goes thieving about, " He si tall be punished without doubt ; And if sickness that day betide, ' It shall quickly from thee glide. - The general sentiment among tlie mer cantile classes of the country which led to the repeal of the old national bankrupt law was mainly the result of the great ex penses and delays that attended its admin istration. Merchant and business men generally believed in the principle of the law, but they found that its practical oper ation was attended by no benefits to the creditors. The dilatory and expensive proceedings under it resulted in nine cases out of ten in the assets of the bankrupt estate beiiig eaten up by tbe lawyers, leav ing little or nothing for any one else. Tbe consequence was that tlie classes in whoso belialf the Act was passed reaped no bene fit from it. Hence they became disgusted and tbouglitlcssly raised a cry for its repeal, when It would have been a great deal wiser to nave called for judicious amendments. Within tlie last year a feeling has been developed very extensively among the business classes In favor of the enactment of a new National Bankrupt Act, more carefully drawn and guarded than that ot 1S07, The probability seems to be that some law of this kind will be introduced at tba present session ot Congress.

Bnr for tlie heroism of It passengers, a large British vessel would have been lost in the Bay of Biscay, a few days ago, by rva-n of the cowardice ot its Asiatic crew. No sensible traveler would trust himself on salt water iu a ship manned otlier tlian by European sailors. , Full details of the count made by tlie Governor and the Council of Mahie show tlie following results : In tlie Senate the FnsioiiistA are given twenty members and the Republicans eleven ; in tlie House tlie Fusionists seventy-eight and tlie Repub licans sixty-one. Five cities with twelve Republican representatives Portland. Bath. I.ewlstou. Rockland and Saco are without representation. The House will thus bo twejve inemtxrs diort of its organ ization. Senator Booth, of California, lias intro duced a bill providing that where settlers enter upon lands supposed to be public, and subsequently fail to acquire titles, the fees and commissions they have paid In good faith shall be refunded to them. Such a law would be In tlio Interest of simple justice and fair dealing. " Why should the Government retain tlie money of oor men when nothing Is given iu return? The same bill passed both IIoues last winter, hut. strange to state, failed to receive tlie President's siguaUire, It should be-the duty of tlie national land agents to know, so far as fiosible. precisely what tracts can be acquired by the general public. Much I Oris and litigation would thus he avoided. Too many of them are not nfflcJeutly in sympathy with actual settlers. An American schooner that recently ar rived at Halifax reports having been cliased by pirates near Mara guana, in the West Indies. A vessel of war sliould investigate the matter. At various periods the waters of the West Indies have been 'infested bv pirates. The Czar has decided to be friendly with Germany and Austria. At present he resides iu a glass-house.
