LOCAL MATTERS.

MAIL LOCKS AND KEYs.-During the month of
July commission, consisting of Mr.. Byington.
master machnist at the arsenal, Mr.. Saxon, of the
Coast Survey office, and Mr.. Renwick, an exam
liner in the Patent Office, was appointed by the
Postmaster General to examine upwards of one
hundred locks and keys, submitted by thirty-six
competitors, for the contract to supply the Post
Office Department with them. 1t being desirable
to procure the beet lock at the lowest price, kind
was prescribed a standard the Department rely
ing for selection on the mechanical skill and in
genuity which fair competition might develop.
AS we have heretofore stated, the intention is to
displace, simultaneously, all the mail locks and
keys in use, and this will require about thirty
thousand locks and twenty thousand keys
they be manufactured, and a
yearly supply of them to meet the exgencies of
the public service.
The commission recently examined about fifty
other locks-there were eighteen competitors AS
it required that the locks should possess the
qualities of durability, uniformity, lightness, and
strength, the specimens presented were subjected
to tests such as picking and being fastened to
mabags and thrown out of the window, as if from
mail coach.
We learn that the contract for the through bag
locks has been awarded to Mr.. McGregor of Gin
cinnaG; and that for the way mail locks to MIR.
Jones, of Newark, provided he agree to execute
the contract with the usual stpulatons of the De-
partment.
FIRKwoop.-Last winter firewood was raised in
price half dollar cord higher than it was dur
ing any previous winter. This high price con-
tinued until late in the spring, the beginning of
summer, when it fell to that of tho previous win
ter. Now it has already gone up TO last winters
price, namely bakers pine four dollars and a-half
and oak five and a-half per cord.
