To POSTMASTEBS.—The, following is a
recent decision of the Attorney General,
given at the request of the Postmaster Gen-
eral on this subject of responsibility of post-
masters for stamps. It is one of no little
importanc^as every postmaster will see.
SlK : Your letter of the 23d inst. hasbeen
received, '& Which you ask my opinion on
the right of.postmasters to be credited in
certain cftste&'for stamps and stamped envel-
oped hot returned nor used. .
A close consideration of the act of Con-
gress, the practice of the Department, decis-
ions of the Supreme Court upon analogous
questions, (3 How. 578, 11 How. 154,) and
the general principles of law applicable to
the subject, has brought me to the conclu-
sion that ;ihe^following rules ought to be
considered as settled and clear.
1. A postmaster should have credit for
staatps with which he is charged, when he
can show that they.were destroyed without
any fault of his own, before he sold or used
them. Letter stamps cost the Government
so little to get them made, that it can hard-
ly be counted. . Their value consists in the
fact that each ofthem represents throe cents
in the payment of postage. Their destruc-
tion Is' tlierefSf! .ho appreciable loss to the
Government, and no gain'at all to any one
else. An officer ought not to suffer for an
unavoidable accident, whifih does no harm.
2. But if the Btamps should be stolen or
lost, and get into the hands of those who
may use them, and. thus deprive the Govern-
ment of s& muiSl revenue, the postmaster
should be held for them. One who has the
cttstody of pnblioTnoney and property, and
is paid for taking care of it, cannot , get rid
of it "by showing-a theft or an accidental
loss. He is an instfrer of its safety against
all perils of that kind.
3. If Se "destroys them*by his'own wan-
ton act; or negligently suffers" them to be
destroyed, he is answerable, on the princi-
ple that no man shaft be allowed to have any
advantages fftpm hiipwn violation of duty
■•fe When postage^Bamps are sent to a
post master by mail, tlfiy are charged against
him at the time they *e sent; and tlie pre-

No sales of colton. The receipts are fall:

' Nxw York, Oct. 18.—The following bank|
have iwspended in addition to those report-
ed at noon:
stopped specie payments in a body. Before
people had faily time to reflect on the conse-
quences of this step, our own banks got into
trouble, and followed the example of New
York. Parties transacting business with
the old banks were astonished to find the
circulation of the Umon Bank of New Or-
leans and Mechanics' and Traders' thrown
out, and as this knowledge became diffused
a sharp run set in on these institutions which
compelled them to succumb. The banks
whiCn remain intact are the Southern, Citi-
zens', Louisiana State, Canal and Jas. Robb.
It is well to mention that the Crescent City
Bank has not yet commenced operations,
and its capital so for as paid up, remains
untouched and unimpaired.
Of course the excitement in the street af-
ter 12 o'clock"was very great, especially in
the vicinity of the saspended banks. Busi-
ness was not thought of, and we have yet to
learn that a solitary Bill of Exchange was
sold. From the other banks specie was
only drawn to a very limited extent, and
it is to be hoped that there will be no fool-
ish run where the ability to pay is so strong.
"We are informed that the remaining banks
have determined to stand up to payments
regardless of all consequences, so that then-
debtors must make up their minds to be
sorely pushed for the next week or two.
Renewals, however, are granted with great
liberality, but no new bnsiness of any kind
is entertained.
There is some anxiety to know how ex-
change running from here on New York
will be settled- -The amount, however, is
not large.
Things are in such a state of chaos that
scarcely any one is prepared to express an
opinion as to the effects of .the breaking up
of the foundations of the currency. What
is to be done is the universal question at
every street corner. How about the law ?
The cumpulsory duty of the Auditor to ad-
vertise the securities for sale ? The courts?
The probable decree of forfeiture V &c. &c.
Such are the queries to which everybody
wants a response. To-day we have no in-
clination to dip deeperinto the matter.
The Picayune .advises patience, expresses
the-Utmost confidence, particularly in the
bank of James Robb, which seems to be
bracing itself up to meet the storm. The
Treasurer of the U. S. Branch mint has been
authorized to set in circulation $200,000 in
gold coin in New. Orleans. By this tile
follwing banks arc aided as mentioned.

OPENED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.
■THIS Establishment is intended mainly
for Adults—Ladies and Gentlemen,and
Youths, whose time is very valuable,and
it is so arranged that persons.who wish to learn
the English, French, Spanish, German or Italian
Languages: or Penmanship, Book-Keeping, Math-
ematics, Phonography, etc., in a practical manner,
as used in business and every day life, can do so
in the shortest possible time, as there are special
Professors and apartments for each branch.
None but the best and most experienced Profes-
sors and Assistants will ever be engaged. There
are nine apartments—a Reception Koom elegantly
fitted up for visitors, so that pupils are never inter-
rupted in their lessons; and an apartment for the
pupils of each Professor; and also,practicing rooms,
so that pupils taking the full course in any one of
tfiese branches, can have ten hours1 practice each
day*
All branches are taught as they should b« prac-
ticed Li bnsiness and every ekiy life. The English,
French, German and Fpanish are now the commer-
cial languages of the world, and the social, literary
and scientific lan mages of the greater part of Eu-
rope and America, are daily becoming more impor-
tant to all persohs. Pupils will be exercised in
Reading, Writing and speaking any language they
may wish to learn.
ITj9 Board can be had with families speaking any
of these languages.
No institution in the United States offers so great
facilities for the acquisition of the living languag-
es and a practical education as this. From 300 to
400 attend it annually.
These and other modern languages will be trans-
lated at this institution.
No pain or expense will be spared to make all the
departments worthy of the confidence of the pub-
ic. * - * '
Twenty or thirty young men will be qualified as
Teachers of my system of Penmanship They will
act as agents for my New Work on Penmanship,
and superior Sieel pens. Young men make from
$ 100 to $30') per month, when qualified to teach
Bad -ting will be no objection to applicants, as
this u soon be corrected^ Energy and industry
are needed. There is work enough for hundreds
in the United States; aud;besides,l£exicoCubuand
South America could employ as many more.
Time required to qualify Teachers, from five to
eight weeks. Ordinary course in Penmanship fr om
one to three weeks. Book-keeping, double and
ngle entry, from four to eight weeks; single en
ry alone; from one to three woeks. Languages,

0 four weeks.
Uj-'Planters and country merchants can be able
to keep their own books correctly, and understand
«tny books in a few lessons.
It is the only institution in the United Statee
where persons advanced in life can, in privats
apartments, with a special profe. sor. perfect them-
selves in any branch they may desire.
Daring the present year persons have attended
from Lousiana. Mississippi, Texas, Arkansas, Cal-
ifornia, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky,
Virginia, Maryland, South Carolina, Missouri, Illi-
nois, Ohio. Michigan, New York, Mexico and Cuba.
And the application for the ensuing fall are large
er than any previous season.
It depends entirely on its own merits for support
and wliil many institutions in the South, liberally
endow*; *>y the State, have utterly failed, this has
eontina to increase. It is the interest as well as
the duiy of ail persons identified with the South to
Su i.tas its instit tions of Learning, and educate
their children in t? em.
r* Ail persons attend until they are perfectly
satis'fied.
Jjj3 Merchants apply here for Clerks and Book-
keepers.

For the Permanent Cure uni Eradication of
all Private Diseases, without * Mercury,
Hindrance from Business, or Expo-
sure to Friends, with tie use of
A'ewly Discovered Remedies.
A cure Guarantied in all
cases, when within
the power of
remedies.
THE unparalleled success which has attended
these REMEDIES in all parts of the U. States
and Europe, the many remarkable cures they have
effected which were pronnnced incurable by the most
eminent Physicians, justifies me in offering them to
the confidence of the unfortunate. The following
are some of the diseases termed ••Private," all of
which these remedies permanently eradicate, viz -
Syphilis, primary, secondary and tertiary; Uu
thral discharoz8, GoHOKjtHOKa, GlIIT, NOCTUR-
nal Emissions, Periodical Affections or Fekalis,
however complicated they may be; Diseases or the
Back and I ions. Inflammation of the Bladder
and Kidneys, Rheumatism, Hydrocele, Cancers,
Ulcers, Tcmors, aDd all diseases of the skin.
Strictures cured without the use of the Bougie
or any instrument.
Dr. James would also call the attention especially
of those who have p?Fvately an'd improperly Injured
themselves in that secret and solitary- hablttrhich
ruins the body and mind, unfitting them for either
business or society, viz: Constitual Debility or Im-
potence. The following are some of the sad and
melancholy effects produced by early habits ofyo th
viz: Weakness of the Back and Limbs, Pain in the
Head. Dimness of Vision. Loss of Muscular Power,
Palpitation of the Heart, Dispepsta, Nervousness,
Irritability, Symptoms of Consumption, eto. Men
tally, the fearful effects on the mind ore more to ■>.
dreaded. Loss of Memory, Confusion of Ideas c-
pression of Spirits Evil foreboding, Aversi r to
Society, Self-Distrust, Love of 8olitad.e, T midity
etc.. are some of the evil- Drodaced.
All persons afflicted with any of the a1 >vs srmp
toms should not fail to call on Dr. Jamks, and Ve at
once restored to perfect health. Let no false deli-
cacy prevent you, but apply immediately, and save
yourself from the awful and dreadful consequences
of this terrible malady Weakness of the organs
immediately cured, and full vigor restored.
P . S.—Persons residing out of the city,orwho can-
not visit me personally,by giving particulars of dis-
ease, in letter, and enclosing a fee of Ten Dollars,
will have the Remedies of disease sent to their ad-
dress, enclosed In a small package and concealed
from observation. No communication noticed un
less accompanying the fee as the numerous corres-
pondence of the Doctor forbids.
Consultations held strictly confi lential.
