Stamped Letter Envelope'.-The Gen.
eral Post Office Department had aban-
doned their original intention of issuing
the new stamped envelopes as early as
the LIST of June, though the contractors
are understood to have had portion of
them ready for delivery at New York.
The Postmaster General being indisposed
TO scatter abroad until he can have sniff
.cient on hand to send them in every di-
rection, has deemed it best to wait until
the lst of July, when an ample supply
will be ready they are printed on pa
per made for the purpose, so water lined
that in each envelope one May plain dis
tinguish, beside the besusfu1 postage
stamp, the ,etters "P. o. D., U. S."
(meaning Post Office Department Of the
United States,) The law makes ii felony
to counterfeit this paper as the stamp.

or twelve Digger Indians met, yesterday
afternoon, 81 under the sycamore on the le-
vee between and J streets. with sever
al hotties of liquor and deck Of cards,
and amused thelnse ives after their peculi-
mr. mode of enjoyment. Toasts were
drank. convivial sentiments interchanged,
and the money from one old gentleman's
purse entirely drained into that of a
vouueer member of the tribe, whose pro-
ficiency in card playing seemed to afford
him a decided advantage over all adver-
,aries. In proportion as the old mans
dollars grew scarce, his gaze became
steadily fixed upon grey horse which
stood nigh and which was destined to
form a stake, unless the luck took deci-
ded and sudden change in his favor. Our
haste did not permit us to witness the re-
suit: but the well known propensity of
the indians for gambling justifies the be-
lief that the horse was won or lost, as he
would have been at twenty times his
value, with gambling Digger Indian for
his owner.-Sac. Union.

The Sonora people appear to have ia
ken no id in earnest of the matter Of an
emigrant route from that place through
to Walkers river. The sum of 81 ,4O3
has already been raised towards opening
road which the Sonora people are con-
fident will command the most OF the
next enigrants. A road through here
will save great deal in distance, and if
it is made passabIe it will be of great ad-
vantage to the emigrants.
