We willingly comply withthe request to insert
in our columns the following Circular, and avail
ourselves Of the opportunity thus afforded not on
" 10 express our unqualified appreciation of its
object, but to add that reduction of postage on
magazines aud newspapers should also be
urged =
To The People ordte United States:
The British Government has set mn example 10
this country. well worthy elimination. 1t is re-
ducton of Postage.
I'm country were every farthing that can posi-
by be raised Ivy taxation, direct and indirect, is
wanted to carry on the Government, the Para-
ment has reduced the Postage all over, the king
dom, to one penny on every letter not exceeding
haitian ounce in weight. The Government has
yielded TO the wishes & petitions ofthe whole peo-
pie, but not till il was reasonably proved that the
revenue would be rs great with low as with
high rate OF Postage
The wants of our people for a cheap commune
cation through the mails are as great as those Of
the people Of England. Our condition howev-
er is different, owing TO the greater extent Of our
territory. But if the English Postage can safely
be reduced to one penny, is it not probable that
ours can be reduced to two cents, five cents and
ten cents, according to the distance which the
mail has to be carried. The advantages of such
reduction are apparent to every man, women, and
child, who has intercourse of business or friend
ship out of their own immediate ncighborhood.
There is but one way to get it done, and that is
TO send in Petitions from all quarters of the couli-
try. We, therefore, recommend the following
form of Petition: ..
To THE SENATE AND HOUSE OF REPRESENTA-
TIvEs IN CONGRESS ASSEMBLED:
Your Petitioners believe that it would he great
benefit to the People Of the United Staes social
moral, political, aud pecuniary, to reduce the Pos
tage OH Letters. They therefore pray that it may
be reduced so that the greatest postage on any
single letter shall not exec ed ten cents

MASSACHUSETTS, OUT OF THE WOODS.
Morton's plurality over Everett is 254 votes +;
1903 scattering votes are already known to have
been cast; so there is certainly no election OF
Governor. In the House of Representatives the
Wings have 43 majority, and the remaining towns
will increase their majority. The Wings will
therefore have Wing Governor, Senate and
House. The locos crowed too quick.
